"What are talking about? Of course not."
"Ehhh, then tell me!"
"Mrs. principal herself told me that it's a secret. Gets?" He whispered the 'ahh' 'I-get-it-now' sound while nodding his head.
"Ughhh."
"Oh? What's wrong?"
"It's so unfair. I have already received mine but you haven't yet. How's that possible?"
"Duhh. They just couldn't find the right one for me." He flips his imaginary hair. Josh already turned 21 months ago but he still hasn't received any. He stopped going to school when he was in kinder so he's older than me. He doesn't want to tell me what really happened. He's a secretive person. All he said was that he has family problems at that time and that's it.
But you know what? I'm really curious about Josh. He's gay. Will he ever receive one from the government? What if he won't because he's gay? What would he do? What would the government do? But what if...Josh isn't really gay?
Omg. It's possible, right? I mean, he's hiding it for so many years, but, for what reason? I should try asking him about it just to be sure.
"Josh. Are you really g—"

ATTENTION. STUDENTS OF GATES ACADEMY, CLASSES WILL BE SUSPENDED. YOU MAY NOW GO HOME.
Some students were happy and some complained after hearing the announcement. The meeting would take longer than I expected. I guess there's a problem or the like. Something like this also happened last time.
Students stood up from their seats as they pack their things, ready to leave. Josh did the same and faced me, "Did you say something, gurl?"
Should I? Hmm, it seems to me that he isn't in the mood to talk. Maybe he'll get mad at me so I'll just ask him some other time.
"Nothing. I'm just nervous for tomorrow." I stood up and began to walk. He silently followed behind me. We went to our lockers and got our bags which we placed there a while ago.
"You can do it, gurl. Just call me anytime if you need me. I'll always be here for you."
"Thanks, Josh."

I'm now in my room, laying down as I stare at the ceiling. A lot of things happened today and I'm sleepy.
"I wonder what will happen to me tomorrow. Will I be fine?" A while ago, while nana and I ate our lunch, she told me that she received a call from our principal and that she's really happy for me. She was even more excited than I was for tomorrow. I even asked her for the name of the man that I'll be meeting tomorrow but she refused to answer.
Mixed emotions rushed through me as I try to picture out some things that would probably happen tomorrow.
I was about to close my eyes when Nana knocked on my door. "Kira?"
"What is it, Nana?"
"Wear something presentable and come down after. Someone wants to see you." Who could that be?
I stood up from my bed and changed my clothes. I wore my favorite blue batwing top that matches my fair skin with skinny jeans and flat sandals. I tied my medium-length cinnamon brown hair into a messy bun. I put a little lip gloss on my lips and looked at myself in the mirror.
To be honest, I care less of the people who think that I have no fashion sense. As long as I'm comfortable with what I'm wearing, I'm good with it. Hell, why do they even care? It's my kind of fashion and I love it.
"Perfect." I was satisfied with my look so I left the room. I heard the faint laughter of two people coming from the living room. My heart was beating fast as I walk down the stairs.
Is this Déjà vu? If that's the case, the person in the living room right now is the man from my nightmares?
I took larger steps and every step I take made me breathless until I reached our living room. And there I saw the person who wants to see me.
A woman? But not just any woman. I could clearly see that she's hella gorgeous even when we're 10 feet apart. I guess she's still around her mid-twenties. They both noticed that I was staring at them for a while now so they looked at me. My nana smiled while the woman with beautiful ocean blue eyes looked at me with excitement.
Her light golden-brown curls bounced on her shoulders as she stood up from her seat. She's wearing a peach-colored wrap around dress that shows off her small waist and robust bosoms. She pairs it with wedged sandals and finishes off her look with her simple orange-colored lipstick.
She's like a model.
She came to me and hugged me. Wow, she's tall. "Gosh, you're so pretty!" She said as she scanned my whole body with big smiles.
"A healthy and a fit pear-shaped body, cute height, hazel eyes, thin heart-shaped lips. You're perfect!" She hugged me again, squeezing me in her arms.
What does she mean? Is she my partner? Seriously? I looked at nana and she just laughed.
This is a very big problem but if that's the case...
I looked at the woman who was still hugging me and realized that there's another problem.
Despite her model-like figure, she acts like a child playing with her toy. Do I really look like a cute little teddy bear to her?
Thankfully, she decided to let go of me so I stepped back a little far from her. "Uhm?" I stood there in confusion, hoping that she'll introduce herself before she does weird things to me. She seems to understand me so she stood straight and gave me an apologetic smile.
"I apologize for my childish behavior. I am July V. Lovino. It's lovely to meet you, Kira Castelle."
"Are you my partner?" They laughed so hard their mouths could drop as if I told them a very silly joke. But I wasn't joking?
"You're funny, dearie," she cleared her throat and continued, "but to answer your question, I'm not your partner."
"So, who is it?"
"My little brother. Neal Valastro."

Of course not." I whispered while walking down the hall and into the elevator.Does he really hate choco floats for him to act that way? Maybe he was referring to it when he said something about his death or something or maybe he doesn't really want to share.Shouldn't be surprised when it's Neal.I decided to buy water for the both of us so I exited the room. He asked me where I was going but I just told him that I'll buy something so I forgot to ask if there was a cafeteria in this place or perhaps some store.Well, there has to be. It isn't impossible after all if there really is. Not in this company of his.I am now in t

Indirect Kiss• • • • •"As you were saying about a while ago?" Neal asked. He tapped the invisible dust on his dark-colored plain suit and fixed his necktie.He has a pretty good memory."Err, I forgot about it." I looked up at the floor indicator and luckily there was a 'bing' sound, signifying that we are on the sixth floor.We stepped outside and wow, I was amazed. There were a lot of models—men and women all around the place. They were in different clothes, the others going in and out of a room. I have also seen a lot of photographers--which I knew right away since they were carrying their cameras with them.They were all busy until someone saw Neal and greeted him and in just a split second, all eyes were on him."Good afternoon, sir!""Welcome back sirrrr!""Holly molly, it's

Soykel• • • • •"We're here."He said. I looked in front of us and saw a very huge company. There was a sign in front that's made of gold saying,"Davs? What does that mean? How do you read it?"It's actually The V's. Means The Valastro's. The Valastro's modeling company. It was technically my mother's company passed on to me. She made the name so I decided to keep it in memory of her.""Ohh." I didn't ask about it any further. We parked right in front of it, where a sign says 'for the family only.'Neal hastily went out of the car and went to my side. He opened the door for me again. I stepped outside and inhaled the scent of flowers that were nearby. I could tell that he really loves nature."I'll carry it." He said as he took the paper bags that I was carrying.What a gentleman.I followed

DaV's• • • • •I became speechless. Well, obviously Kira, the song is for you since you have requested it. But maybe what he really meant is the other meaning that I'm still trying to understand?"Thank you. That's...wonderful." That was all I could say. Sighing out of disappointment, he stood up from his seat and looked at me deep in the eyes as if trying to tell me something through staring that he can't possibly say out loud but failed in the process.He sighed once again. I tilted my head to the side, confused by what he was trying to convey to me."You are still confused. But not for long. I'll show you so that you'll understand.""Understand what? Why don't you just tell me? I'll listen.""You'll listen but you won't understand. You'll have doubts if I would tell you so it's best if I'd show it to

Sing Me a Song• • • • •"Which should I press first..." I placed my hands on the thingy, imitating the move that I have seen from movies, and pressed it smoothly.It made a loud sound, making me spun around to check the door and sighed in relief when I don't see him there.I pressed another again and stopped when I've realized that something is missing. "Emotions!" I blurted. Oh right, I almost forgot about it.I laughed at my forgetfulness and suddenly remembered Kousei from Your Lie in April.He was beyond amazing even though the music he played were all classical songs which I'm not totally familiar with but still, the way he played the piano, it was full of emotions. He looked like a rockstar. He was banging his head from different angles and pressing his hands on the piano like he was drumming. It felt like something inside me has connected with Kousei while watching hi

Curiosity• • • • •After all, it surely is still rare seeing him like this so without a second thought, I grabbed the opportunity and did as what he had told me to. It was not long after time has passed and he was fast asleep."Cutie." I smiled at him. His action was so precious that I want to just protect him from anything bad that could taint his innocence - which is already impossible since he has already chosen a path, but even so, I want to bring back the genuineness that he once had. If he doesn't want to, then I'll find and do it my way.I placed both of my hands on my chest and squeezed myself more into him. He moved closer to me too and tightened his arm that was wrapped around me as I close my eyes and fell asleep.• • • •"Old man? Where are you?" My voice echoed through the big and empty space while I
