MAGICAL

MAGICAL (Everything about us is magical) Meet Melanie! Melanie Spears. The cheerful, carefree, intelligent, smart, lovable girl everyone likes...not everyone though. She's in high school just like every other girl of her age. She's ever beautiful, quiet and neat. Everyone thought she's just a normal girl like others but no one knows her deepest secret. Even Melanie herself does not know what this secret of hers is. Finding out who she truly is, she was shocked but she had to accept her true identity and save her world. What could this secret be? It's unknown to the victim and everyone around her so how can this secret be made known to Melanie? Excerpt from the story: "Melanie, can you please stay back?" "What do you mean?" "Can you not go to school today? Stay at home, please." She pleaded with glassy eyes. 'Wait, are you trying to cry? Please don't" I said, shaking my head as I hurriedly hugged her. I released her again. 'Now tell me the main reason you don't me to leave.' "Danger" "I wouldn't have wished for the latter. I should have just maintained the first prayer. All because what I saw...was going to be the end of me, what I saw was terrifying. It was death!!!"

Melanie's POV"Mom, I'm leaving" I announced as i stepped out of the house. I'm going to school on my own today, Mom was not chanced to take me to school today. She looked a little bit down and it's unlike her so I suggested I'll be on my way to school myself. I strolled out of the building happily and was walking towards the gate when Daisy's voice halted me.."Melanie, wait" she called out and I turned back to face her. She breathed heavily for some moment when she finally got to the place I was standing at."What's the matter Daisy? Why did you stop me?" I asked with concern. It's unlike her as well. She was always eager to see me leave for school because according to her she'd have the building all to herself and would be able to move round the garden all she want. The excuses I considered childish."Melanie" she called as she held unto my hand nervously. I crouched to her h

Steve's POV"I'm home" I announced to whoever was home. Just as I was about to go upstairs to my room, a maid appeared from a corner. "Welcome, sir" she greeted and I nodded. I seem to have gotten used to the fact that they all call me 'sir'. Most especially Vivian, the housemaid, who was just two years older than me.I've always tried to convince her not to call me 'sir' but I guess she's just following her job ethics....to respect her bosses."Where's Jessie?" I asked her. "She's not back yet." "Alright. You can go back to do your work." I dismissed her and walked on to my room. I entered my room after unlocking the room door. Yeah, right...I know you guys might be wondering why I had to lock my room in my father's house.Well Mom had strictly warned everyone, including the maid, Vivian and other male workers we have, to always lock the room doors to prevent future conflicts of intr

Melanie's POV"Good morning" I greeted as I sat down beside my friends. "Good morning" Steve and Janet answered. I was almost late for class today. Just as I sat down, the English teacher entered. The tall, slender and well-built man, standing in front of the class, who could easily pass for an athlete, surveyed the class with his eyes.I pretty much guessed he's going to give us test and he did. He looked round, ensuring none of the students was missing before he issued out his questions.Few minutes later, he asked us to submit the answers to his questions. As expected, some students started murmuring, some happily submitted while some did not even show any emotions. Their faces never betrayed their emotions during tests and examinations and I could say I'm one of the last group.If the questions were tough, my facial expression won't portray anything likewise if it's the other way round, you still won

Melanie's POVSteve dropped us at our homes. We went to Janet's first, then mine and Steve went back to his house in his car. The car was actually his sixteenth year birthday gift. Yeah, right...Steve was almost a year older than I am.He's sixteen and I am fifteen but I still consider him to be my age mate because he was only older with few months. But before Steve left, I tried to persuade him to tell me what was wrong with him."Steve, you know you can always trust me with your worries. We share secrets, remember? But you're keeping this one. What's the matter?" I asked him. He rested his back against the car and I stood in front of him raising my head to look at him 'cause he was taller than me."It's nothing, Melanie. I'm fine"."Steve!!!" I whined. He placed his hands on my shoulders."Melanie, I know you care about me but I'm fine " he said emphatically."Ste

Thank goodness we left our house as early as 4 o'clock, we found seats due to the time we arrived. Few minutes later, the stadium was filled. At exactly 5 o'clock, Suzy's van entered the stadium. People screamed at the sight. When the van stopped, she stepped out of the van in all elegance.She looked like a princess, she wore a pink full flair dress with stilettos. A necklace was lying beautifully on her neck and a tiara was on her head. Her hair was packed in a messy like bun. She waved at the people, looked round and was about to go on stage when she looked sideways and our eyes met. I went numb for a second. "She's staring at me". I muttered under my breath. I waved at her

"I'm home" I announced as I walked towards the sitting room. A maid walked up to me and collected my school bag. I mouthed a 'thank you' to her and walked briskly away from her. "Daisy", I called but got no response. I walked up the stairs and opened her room's door.I entered the room and found her sleeping peacefully on her bed. I stared at her for some minutes and decided not to disturb her nap. I left her room quietly and entered mine which, of course, was opposite hers. I saw my backpack on the reading table. It's a good thing the maid didn't touch any other thing. They're just the way I left them.School was fun with my two awesome friends and Nancy never crossed my path till we left school today.

I immersed myself in the cold water and then closed my eyes to
