episode 1: The Unexpected Travel

Plak.. Plak.. Plak.. Ashley can hear the sound of stamping feet rushing to the jeepney. Due to heavy hearts she unexpectedly drove by those sound inside the vehicle. She never even bother asking the driver where it will go. All she only knew is that she wants to go far from school. Far from the place she can remember the things happened and the pain she's suffering.

After an hour, maybe the driver have noticed that she's still on the jeepney, "where are you going miss?" asked the driver. "We're here at the last stop." With the shocked emotion she didn't say anything and didn't even utter a word and just went down the vehicle.

When she went out, there is no trace of high building, known establishments, or even familiar park or place. This was totally different from the place she is living with. But she feels so hungry. Good thing that she saw a cafeteria nerby the terminal she is in.

While she was heading the cafeteria she saw a familiar figure. The figure that represents power. Maybe someone she met a long time ago. Since she was so hungry she never bother paying attention to it and move in to her plan. And that is to eat.

The pain she is suffering has been converted into hunger. She ordered everything she thinks is appetising. It is really the food her only comforter everytime she's lonely. And here she go again. She remembered everything when her mind is occupied with food. She remembered how she met Chris at a fastfood chain. The same place that they like most. It was a fast food near the school. It is the fast food where Ashley always go everytime she is lonely, everytime she wants to be alone, everytime she wants to think, and everytime she's hungry. The same fast food that Chris admire most because of its ambiance. There was this time that they seat in one table (of course they don't talk with each other because they're both strangers), they have to choose food and bump each other, and line in the cashier at the same time. So many incidents that they both cross paths. Until one day they held hand accidentally for they are about go get the same food in store. Ashley blushed and was noticed by Chris. "I'm sorry miss. You can have it." Chris offered. Chris is slim but a good looking guy. No dress on earth that won't suit him beacuse of his white complexion. His long hair fits his long neck and a pointed noise that very much suited with his small eyes and lips. Day by day they get know each. There is this one instance that they exchange names, they shares ideas and sometimes falks fun about the passersby and even the store staff, and because of those instances they finally know each other well. They sometimes share how they feel on each other. They are much alike when it comes to attitude. They like being alone, Chris thinks that people always sees how he act while Ashley thinks that people only noticed her because of her father. Because of that they likes few people. They are not a fan of hanging out with strangers or other people they are not close with. They spend most of their time studying and playing board games.

There's this day when she doesn't feel okay so she decided to go to her favorite fast food. Ordered the same food she like, go to her favorite spot of table. Before eating a single bite of food she feels the vibration of her phone sp she grab it instantly. It was Chris sending her a message "look at your right" and wothout hesitation she looked at her right. It was Chris holding a Menu Book. He offered it to her but she refuse for she ordered already but Chris insisted saying that it's his treat. She have no choice but to grab it. Unexpectedly she read something when she first open it saying "will you be my girlfriend?". She was shocked and don't know what to say. She grabbed her sandwish and wrote "yes" using a catsup. No one in school who does not know their relationship. How can they not know when Chris' father is the owner of the Sebastian International School.

Before her tears drop she finally back to reality.
