Silence Before Storm

Ah! The humble breeze and gentle sun. What a brilliant morning with the sweet gentle chirping birds...How I wish the day never darkens. Anyways look, Bai Luo is off to class. Always the same, dead and calm.

Bai luo walks in the class, head held low as in trying to hide from the world.... The same routine as ever... Aish this girl! Sitting on a seat along the window, earphones plugged in and her face buried in the book... Her hood still on...Alas! There's no difference from yesterday... Her classmates trying to sneak a glance at her here and there, whispers and gossips going round and round *sigh* but who is to be blamed...

There are bound to be gossips with such a secretive aura.. Gossips go on and on like..

??: It's said her mother used to do black magic

Or something a little more sympathetic like,

??: It's said her parents died in an accident and she became mentally unstable due to trauma.

But no one really knows Bai luo do they?... The day goes on peacefully, but being the female lead of my story, such peace is not allowed in her life!

As routine, our lead walks back home after class.. Only to be welcomed by visitors... Unwanted visitors!

People covered in black? Just like yesterday.. Ohhhh there are more today !

Bai luo calmly drops off her hood letting her rare silky blue hair fall down gracefully complimenting her rare eyes ....what a sight! Her intimidating gaze and posture..

Bai luo : I thought I made it clear yesterday... I'm not going back

??: I'm afraid we can't play cat and mouse for long Ms. Song.. You've had your time. Boss has asked you back.

Bai luo : *scoff* He must be a boss to you . Not me! I'm not one of you anymore ..Get out!

??: Ms. Song if you don't come by will, we'll have to take you by force.

Bai luo stares at him calmly and with a scorning chuckles she takes slow steps towards the person

Bai luo : you're gonna force me? Song Bai luo? Are you listening to yourself?

She takes one more step towards him wrapping her palm around his throat . The person's pupil dilate in horror as he stares at her.. His Adam's apple popping up as he gulps down ..

Bai luo : A lowlife like you ...who can't even move under my gaze is going to force me huh? What a joke!

She steps back staring at the crowd in front of her shaking her head in irritation.

Bai Luo : I suggest you all leave if you don't want to see the past Ms. Song!

Most of the visitors move back lowering their head intimidated by Bai luo.. One of them steps forward and kneels before her shivering in fear..

??: Ms. Song! Please show mercy on us... If we go back without you boss won't spare us or our family!

Bai luo finds it rather funny as she chuckles..

Bai luo : What a mess tsk! Why do such job if you aren't capable enough? A bunch of lowlives!

She turns around walking up the stairs before stopping in the middle nodding to herself.

Bai luo : go tell my father I'll pay him a visit this weekend .

The supposed "lowlives" bow in gratitude.

Bai luo : tsk! Get out! A bunch of idiots..

The house is empty and silent in the blink of an eye...
