chapter 5

"senior 1 class 5"

"hey are you okay" Berry asked the girl slowly banging her head on the willow tree beside him "you seem tired here have some water" Berry said again handing her a bottle of cold water "thanks...... I'm so tired" the girl said snatching the bottle from Berry she gulped the water all up and then let out a deep breath "woah I feel so much better" she said cheerfully "so whatever did that tree do to you" Berry asked "oh nothing I was just exerting out some of my emotions" the girl smiled "anger, hatred, jealousy" Berry chuckled "well, no more like surprise, fear and disappointment" she said seriously "well the name's Berry, nice to meet you" he said nicely "nice to meet you Berry. I'm Mona, Mona Chen" the girl said curtseying. Berry looked at her carefully she had the red glossy hair and a remarkably pretty face, she wore a blue lace dress and a pair of black wedges, her lavender bag was an all-season premium Gucci edition, she was the kind of girl who stood out no matter where she was "I wonder who or what was chasing her, a mob of interested boys? no, more like a mob of jealous girls, maybe, but she's so attractive" Berry thought to himself, he smiled then slowly ran his hands through his hair, Mona looked up at him and frowned, she hated good looking boys especially the ones who knew how good-looking they were "but he's hot" Mona thought to herself, she took out her phone and pointed it at Berry "hey give me your digits" Mona said sharply "oh ok" Barry replied taking the phone from her, he saved his number and give it back to her, Mona smiled at him and said quietly "could you please show me the way back I have no idea how I got here" Barry looked at her and laughed "sure let's go" he said mockingly, Mona rolled her eyes at him and slid her hands through his, "lead the way pretty boy" she sneered. He looked at her and chuckled, his new friend was unexpectedly hillarious. When they got to the 1st grade dorms, the female dorm master handed them the keys to their rooms. Berry's room was in the East side while Mona's was North, they said bye to each other and went to find their rooms and the mysterious roommate. When Mona got to the door she looked up and saw in bright golden letters 'ROOM 10 North Wing 1st Grade Dorms' Mona's roommate hadn't gotten there yet, so she unlocked the door and went in she looked around the room in great awe, the room was big enough for two people, it had a cream-colored wallpaper, the two beds were pushed to either side of the wall and to doors with bathroom written on them were opposite each other, there were two dressing tables and two wardrobes, the curtains were of different colours, baby pink and mint green, there were lamps on each of the tables beside the beds, it was not at all what Mona expected, she saw her luggage at the corner of the wall where Mr Jerry had nicely dropped them. She wanted to wait for her roommate at first but later decided to go on unpacking her boxes, she first unpacked her clothes, then toiletries, then candles, that's right candles, her perfume scented candles, she put them all around the room, then carefully lighted each and every one of them, when she was done, she decided to change out of her blue dress she

unzipped the dress and took it off slowly, there was a mirror beside her wardrobe so she took the time to admire her body, she took out her violet robe and slid her arms into it, she was just about to tie the ropes a second time when a knock came from the door.

.........

Xirong was standing outside his room door when he saw Angela Zhang coming towards him "hey Angie" he said waving at her "ah young master Xie is this your room?" she said pointing at the door behind him "yeah" he said shrugging his shoulders "well why don't I see what kind of person your roommate is this time" Angela said nosily, Xirong then leaned on the wall so that whoever it was wouldn't see him, then Angela knocked on the door softly, there were slight footsteps coming from the room. A few seconds later the door flung open "hi are you my roommate" a half dressed girl said as she opened the door she looked at Angela and rubbed her eyes "Angela Zhang is that you" the girl said surprised Angela looked at her and smiled "Mona I can't believe it's you wow this is really funny" she said beaming Mona looked at her and frowned "you're not my roommate are you" she said gloomily "nope but he is" Angela said dragging out a figure and pushing him into the room she got in and close the door behind her. The boy looked at Mona and grinned, Mona who was confused at first, took a look at the grinning boy and gasped "what, what, what" she said breathlessly "hi my name is Xirong Xie a first-year senior, I will be your roommate for the rest of this school year, nice to meet you" the boy said sheepishly. Mona looked at him, then at Angela, then back at him, giving up she opened the door and pushed Angela out then she locked it and threw the keys unto her bed, she leaned back against the door and looked. at Xirong carefully. "A good-looking boy with black hair and strong punch saves a drunken beauty in a bar and later meets the same girl as his roommate, now that's a surprise" Mona thought to herself as she went to her bed "you know this is crazy right" Mona said shaking her head "yeah it is" Xirong sighed " so your name's Xirong, the young master of the Xie family?" Mona said quietly "yeah and I never really got to ask for your name though" he replied "Mona, Mona Chen" she told him, the boy nodded his head and stood up quickly he then walked to Mona's side of the room and took out her guide book from the side tables, he flipped a few pages and smiled "senior 1 class 5" he said to himself slowly as he dropped the guide book unto Mona's bed.
