Morning seems quiet today, Ash woke up early this morning cause today is her morning duty for her class.

"Huaaaa..." Ash yawn loudly as she stretches her body. "It's so early..I'm really lazy to wake up now..hurrmmm" Ash muttering herself.

However she has to get up, take a bath and eat breakfast so she can go to her school early today due to her duty.

"Ring....Ring...." While looking at her phone, someone is calling her early in the morning.

"Hello, Ash. You already awake? Hurry up, i'm already waiting for you downstairs". Belle, her best friend already called her in the morning and waited for her to go to school together. They are both in the same group for today's class duty.

"What?you already downstairs? Wait, give me 30 minutes, i will go down." "Ok..hurry up" Belle replied.

Ash wondering in her head, why would her best friend Belle, the one that hard to go school early, today diligently come directly to her house to go school together with her? Hurrmm... suspicious...

[After 30 minutes....]

"Yo, Belle. Why you so early today?got nothing to do?" Ash asked Belle while she stood at the front door wearing her shoes and stuffed some bread in her mouth.

"Hehe...you know usually I'm late right?even though that day is my day for class duty..But you know, since we are in the same group, let's just go together ok?Since i've got something to ask you".Ash is looking at Belle wondering what her best friend wants to ask while looking at her friend's face that seems pondering and lost in thought.

The distance from Ash homes is taking around 30 minutes to her school. Since they lived in rural areas, it is more convenient to just take a walk than riding a car.But sometimes, they also ride a bus, since bus service starts from 8.00 am in the morning, they have to walk due to their morning duty.

After 10 minutes of walking, Belle started to open her mouth." Ash, you heard the news right?you see it right? Ash calmly answered her friend's question. "Yes..I saw it...why?" "Actually..."

[Back to a day early...]

It was on Sunday, the mystery event happened...Ash was at home with her family having a barbeque party at the back of their house..Everyone was laughing happily, chatting with each other while Ash was helping her mother in the kitchen cutting some fruits to serve for their family.

This mother and daughter start chatting with each other while their hands are busy cutting fruits."Ash?" "Yes mom?" Answer Ash. "How school?is everything alright?". Ash muted for a second before answering the question. "Yes..yes..everything alright.Belle also helped me so much these few years". "Is that so?Mom's really happy to hear that, I just want you to be happy ok?I know it's been hard for you since last year..we keep moving, yeah you know about mom jobs right?" "It's ok mom, I understand.." "That's great! As long as you are happy, mom is happy too". Both daughter and mother smile at each other, a sign of relief.

Without Ash's mom's knowledge, Ash is being bullied by her friend at school.Belle, her best friend also doesn't know this matter cause Ash keeps it secret from both of them to avoid them worried about her.

"Oh mom, how is Aunty Claire doing right now?Is she still busy with her research?I'm missing her so much..I 've not seen her since my 16th birthday." Next month, Ash will be 18 years old. Her birthday is on the 21st March..so around 20 days more since today is 1st March. It has been 2 Years since she's not seeing her Aunty Claire who is Head of Researchers at one big company.

"Your aunty?she is always busy you know?last time I called her, she said her company is on research for a mystery plant at Peru." "Peru?wow.. I hope I can go there for jungle treks sometimes""Hmm...sure once you are already 18th ok?" Smile Ash's mom. Ash smiles back at her mom.

Then suddenly...

There is a mystery white light outside their house, Ash's mom's face looks so surprising since she is facing the windows...Ash looks back to see what things that surprised her mom so much that her mother's face seems in awe.

"What the heck???" The cornea of Ash's eyes become bigger as she sees the mystery phenomena...

The sky becomes white, there's no cloud in sight, just white light...Everyone was stunned and awed at the same time.Ash and her mom walked outside to see what happened outside.

Suddenly Ash's head hurts, It hurts so much as someone is knocking her head with some hard metal bat."Ouch...Ouch.."Ash screams in pain. Her mom looks worried. "Ash! What's wrong?Ash! Look at mom!" "AHHHHHH....It hurts!" Ash's mom is looking for help."Babe..Help me! There's something wrong with Ash".Her mom called her father Mr Danny.

"Wait, wait, I call an ambulance." Then suddenly her mom, father and other guests collapsed suddenly. Ash's eyes are still open slightly to see everything that happens in front of her. "Mom...Dad.." Ash called her parents'name slowly as she began to lose her consciousness.

Ash opens her eyes slowly..."Mom?" Ash saw her mom Ms Elaine sitting beside her seem sleepy."Ash?you awake?" "What happened mom?you ok?is everyone ok?". "Yes Ash, everyone is ok..You okay?". "My head hurts a little.""Your head hurts?wait mom takes pills painkiller for you. wait a while".Ms Elaine opyen drawer to take some painkiller pills for Ash."Ash..."."Yes mom?". "Do you just feel hurt in your head only?other places?"."Other places?" Ash asking confusedly..."No no,only my head"."Oh...ok what a relief...since you are awake, do you want some food?mom cooks some porridge for you." "Sure, I'm feeling so hungry too cause I'm not eating yet".The barbeque party was delayed due to the mystery event.

[Back to real time]

"Actually..."Ash is waiting for the Belle story. "Actually what Belle?don't keep me hanging like that.""Actually..."

"Ouchh..." Ash screamed painfully..there someone stumbled on her shoulder. "Watch where you are going sir!" Ash raised her voice to the person who hit her. "Oppss, sorry I didn't notice you there."Ash looks at her front to see there's a group of boys.'Huh! You guys?' Speak Ash inside her head. The one that hit Ash shoulder is none other than the popular boy group of the school. The HS Boys...The handsome boys...for Ash they are not HandSome boys..but more to The HideouS Boys...Their behaviour was so bad and immature even though their faces were more mature. As people said...Don't judge a book by its cover. It's really suitable for those boys.In that group there are 3 members, (Freddy,Gen,Henry), all of them are from wealthy families. Don't know why they school here. As far as Ash knows, it is because of their parent business that all of them school here. Even though it's a rural area, that place is still in development.

"Don't you see me?" Ash angrily asked the boys."See you?"Henry looking left and right. "Bro, did you see anyone here?" "Nope." Reply Freddy and Gen."Hahahahahahaha" Three of them laugh frantically." I guess you are too short miss...I didn't see you at all"."Hahahahaha..." All of them were laughing then walking away from Ash and Belle. 'Bastard!' Ash speaks in her head. "What? I'm 167cm...he called me short?I know his giant.Like 187cm something?But did he lose his eyes?or his eyes at the back of his head?didn't see what was in front?" Ash muttering with angry faces next to Belle. "Am I right Belle?" "Yes,yes, just let them be Ash. Let's go to our classroom.

As soon as they arrive at their class, Ash and Belle start cleaning their classroom.They swipe the floor, clean the windows, wipe the whiteboard, arrange the chairs and table. Then Ash starts to remember.."Belle, just now you want to say something to me right?on our way here?" "Oh that?yes, actually I want to ask, Is there something abnormal happening after the white light appears?

"Abnormal?hurrmm as I remember my head hurt so badly, then I start to faint. I also remember that my mom,dad and other guests collapsed at the same time." "Oh...I see.. that's all?". "Yeah.Thats what happened.Anything happened to you Belle?." "Huh?What?Me?Same..same..we all collapsed...Hehe". Belle answered Ash question then smiled awkwardly." I see...then all ok right?seems like nothing bad happens yet" Ash smiles at Belle." Yeah nothing bad happens" Smile Belle back.

While Ash looking at the outside windows, Belle looking at Ash back..her face seems confused.What Ash didn't know that Belle had gained superpower since the incident. Belle eyes can see what other eyes cannot see.She can see words at someone back, not some random word. As far as what she already saw, her mom wrote 'Promotion in 2 days'. Her dad wrote 'Outstation 1 day'. Her brother's 'Dating in 3 days'. So as Belle confirmed all info was correct, she knows all her family activities are aligned with the word writing at their back. For some reason Ash back wrote something that she cannot understand. 'Not yet..' 'What is that supposed to mean?' wonder Belle in her head. I thought Ash faced something similar with me? but to her surprise Ash doesn't have any superpower like her do. So right now Belle keeps it secret from Ash and she keeps gathering information to understand more of the situation.

"Belle!Belle!" "Yeah?what?" "What are you staring at? You look so lost.." "Me?haha nothing." Then their classmate walked one by one into the classroom. Belle and Ash both go back to their seats. Ash feels something wrong with Belle but she just ignores it cause Belle hasn't said anything to her yet. So she doesn't want to burden her friend, let her be ready to spill it all, then Ash will be by her side to hear.

"Ok classes, sit down." Mr Irish walking inside the classroom with someone.

Beside Mr Irish, there is someone standing there, a young man with brownish hair 188 cm tall, pale looking but handsome face, smile sweetly with dimples on both cheeks.

"Ok classes, today we have a new transfer student. So you can start introducing yourself?" "Oh, Hi! My name is Jeremy. I'm from Peru and just moved here yesterday, so...yeah take good care of me.".

"Peru?" Ash mutters herself.The other student starts screaming "WOOHH, new student, WOOHH". "Quiet!" Mr Irish knocked a book to the table causing all students to be quiet."Ok Jeremy you can sit wherever you want."

Jeremy walking straight to the back to sit near the windows...His sit just behind Ash. "Knock..knock..." Jeremy knocking Ash chair. Ash looking at her back.

"Hi!" Ash looking back. "Yeah???" "What's your name?" ask Jeremy "Me?" "I'm Ashley...called me Ash" "Ash…oh hi, I'm Jeremy…as you already know." "Oh yeah…yeah…hi Jeremy". Ash is not the type to speak to someone first, so she immediately looks back to the front.

"Hey!". Jeremy knocked Ash's chair back." Ash is smiling but inside she's not." Yeah?can I help you?"." Can you help me tour around the school?" "Me?" Ash answered surprisingly..." Why? I don't know so much around here…you can ask Belle." Ash hardly tries not to be involved with the new student." Belle?who's that?"

"Ehem..ehem.." Belle made a sound as she heard both of them talking.

Jeremy looks at his side and sees Belle looking at both of them. "He-he it's me". Belle smiled at both of them." Psstt..." Ash tries to hold her laugh. She's laughing but covers her mouth, so her laugh cannot be heard by other classmates. Jeremy looked at both of them confusedly.

"Hmm…ok… So Belle?you can show me around the school?". "Sure. Of course! Can!Can!." Belle agreed to help Jeremy while her eyes sharply stared at Ash and smiled with force.' You wait for Ash!' Both Ash and Belle are so close, they share everything but of course there is something they are not sharing.

But Ash knows Belle is looking for a boyfriend. Her friend is dying to have a boyfriend at the age of 18th. Jeremy seems like a good, innocent boy. He seems nice. So Ash tries to make both of them spend time together.

"Ring...." It's lunchtime, everyone goes to the cafeteria to get some food." Belle, let's go"." Oh, yeah…let's go". Belle and Jeremy both go outside first as she already promised to take Jeremy around school.

" Tuk... Tuk.." someone knocking Ash Tables. It's Kelly and the gang. "Alone today Ash?" Ash looks up and sees Kelly as she starts cleaning her table before she goes to the cafeteria.

"Oh Kelly." Ash's face looked so trouble as she knows when she is alone, Kelly will start bothering her."What do you want Kelly?" Come with me."Ash looking at three of them, one is chewing gum, one playing phone, and Kelly? She stares directly at Ash."Ok fine!" Ash followed them to the toilet,

"Thump!" Kelly pushes Ash against the wall and starts yelling at her." You know I don't like you right?" "Don't act so mighty Ash…who do you think you are?" Ash seems dumbfounded with Kelly's action.

"What am I doing wrong this time Kelly?"."You! I already told you don't be near Henry or the boys right? I already gave you a warning before this!""Me?when I do that?" "This morning I saw you talking to Henry, bitch!"

"What? I never talk to him first! He's the one that hit my shoulder!" "Enough! I don't want to hear you talk." "Girls...." Lindsey, one of Kelly gang handover her water bottle.Kelly start opening the bottle cap then pouring the water on top of Ash head.

Ash gasp, feeling the water rush down from her head..she is not surprised by Kelly's usual action.

Kelly and Ash before this are just your usual classmates, only talk when needed and never bump into each other so much. But Kelly starts bothering and takes interest in Ash when her boyfriend, Mike starts talking with Ash. Mike is someone that is called a playboy...he has dark hair, a sweet talker and 180 cm tall.

Mike is the one that is always bothering Ash and talking to Ash as they are best friend.Ash never meant to make Mike her boyfriend as she knows Mike got girlfriend's Kelly. Ash is only a good listener...she is a kind girl with logistic thinking and always gives advice to Mike. But Kelly never knows that, to her Mike is cheating on her.
