CHAPTER 18

By Succie Brown.

(KARAOKE NIGHT)

Helena and Greg quickly enters the bathroom on hearing her scream.

“What’s wrong? Why’re you screaming?” Helena asked.

And Paige staggeringly snuggle to them.

“Mom, I think I’ve been bitten” She said whimpering.

“Bitten? By what?” Greg asked.

Paige sniffs.

“Even if I tell you, You both won’t understand, but I’ve seriously been bitten” Paige said.

She leaves the bathroom, climbs her bed, covering herself with the duvet.

“Paige are you all right?” Helena asked.

“Yes I’m fine, Don’t worry about me” Paige said scrunching the duvet.

Both Helena and Greg looks at each other.

THE MCDONALD’S MANSION***

Nadia keeps laughing as she chatter with someone on the phone, her mom opened the door, and she quickly ended the call, spranging up from the bed.

“Mom” She said gulping down hard.

Mrs McDonald scans the entire room with her eyes.

“What’re you doing?”

“Not… Nothing Mom” She stuttered.

“Really? I could hear you from downstairs laughing, Who were you talking to on the phone?” Mrs McDonald asked.

“No one mom, just a friend from school” Nadia said, hiding her phone behind her back.

“What happened in school today?”

“Huh?”

“Nadine is very indignant, but she’s refusing to say a word, So I’m sure you must have an idea about what happened earlier at school, right?”

“I don’t Mom” Nadine answers and Mrs McDonald hisses.

“What’s the point of asking you, when you aren’t going to give me an answer”

“I’m sorry Mom”

“Sorry for yourself, I’ve gotten use to your unprompt behavior, You have nothing to show fort anyways”

Nadia looks at her, but quickly buried her head to the tiled floor.

“The next runner up is coming soon, make sure your able to win a crown, understood?”

“I do mom, I’ll do my best this time around” Nadine said.

Mrs McDonald looks at her and snickers.

“Let’s hope so cuz I know your going to fail, that’s your second name after all” Mrs McDonald said and leaves Nadia’s room.

Nadia sits on the bed, folding her legs together, and her pigtail hair dangles as she heaved a sigh.

“How can I do well, when you forcing me to be like Nadine” She said and sighs again.

“But what really happened in school today? Did something happen when I sneaked out of school today?” Nadia asked no one.

She falls to the bed.

“Whoever made Nadine so angry, I’m thankful to him or her, she has been on my throat for long, and I can’t seem to get her off my throat” Nadia muffled and sighs again.

THE NEXT DAY=EMPIRE HIGH***

“Are you all right Paige? Your eyes looked so dull” Desiree said as they made their way towards the class.

Paige pouted.

“That’s because I couldn’t even get the slightest bit of sleep last night” Paige answers.

“Huh? Why?”

Paige sighs squealing, making Desiree wonder why.

“What’s wrong Paige? What with the squealing?”

“I think I brought this upon myself, Is all my fault” Paige said and squeals again.

“Can you at least tell me what’s going on with you?” Desiree asked.

Paige pouted and her eyes sees Carding about to enter the class, and she quickly rushed to him.

Carding smiles on seeing her.

“Oh, Paige” He said waving at her smiling.

“Are you a wizard?” Paige asked, and Carding became confused.

“What’s with the question Paige? Why will you ask me if am a wizard?” Carding asked.

Paige looks at him, and she could feel the beating of her heart pouncing rapidly and she couldn’t denied that she was seeing him so differently now.

“Forget it, I’ve indeed been bitten” Paige muffled and staggeringly went Inside the class.

“Hi Carding” Desiree said waving at him.

“What’s wrong with Paige?” Carding asked.

“I don’t know either, she has been rattling something I couldn’t understand” Desiree answers and enters the glass.

Carding sighs before entering the class, he looks at Paige, Paige looked at him but quickly looked away coughing like she had an indigestion.

“You all alright?” Desiree asked, and Paige sharply nods.

“So what happened last night? I was surprised when I saw you in school today” Stacey said.

“I won’t have come to school, if he didn’t help out”

“He? … The anonymous Guy?” Stacey asked.

“Yes” Sabrina replies.

“What did he do this time?”

“He helped paid my rent when the landlady almost kicked us out, he even helped us redecorate our house” Sabrina said.

“Wow. He must really love you Sabrina” Stacey said smiling.

“Then why is he keeping his identity a secret, he should at least show his face to me, I don’t want to get my hopes up”

“May be he just felt like is not necessarily”

“Really?”

“That’s the only thing I have in mind” Stacey said.

Sabrina grunts and packed her hair in a messy bun.

“You aren’t at home Sabrina, You should look beautiful, so the handsome guys in our class will notice you”

“I’m not interested in guys Stacey, so there’s no use dressing up… What’s wrong with Paige, she doesn’t look herself?”

Stacey looks at Paige who had her buried on the desk, while Desiree was just caressing Paige’s hair, and Stacey used eye signals to ask Desiree what was wrong with Paige.

Desiree got the message and shakes her head, meaning she has no idea.

“I think she’s a little bit out of the world, but I know Paige to be a lively person, she’s going to come back to herself in no time.

“I hope so” Sabrina muffled looking at Paige.

Although she had just met Paige, but she already liked her a lot.

Angelo enters the class with Dylan, and Stacey’s heart whipped on seeing him.

Dylan smiles when he didn’t see Barney in her seat, which means no one will pester him today.

He really got it hot from his parents because Barney reported to them, about Dylan not accepting her gift and he was forced to accept the gift and kss her right in their presence.

And anytime he thinks about the kss, he always wipe his lips with the back of his hand, he just hates everything about her.

Stacey keeps looking at Angelo smiling, not taking her eyes off him.

“Do you love him that much?” Sabrina asked.

“Of course I do, I love him so much Sabrina, I might kill anyone who tries to take him from me”

“Don’t tell me your ready to become a villian, just so you can have him?” Sabrina asked.

“Am willing to do anything, his baby face is so enchanting” Sabrina said squealing silently.

Sabrina chuckles.

A teacher enters the classroom, and the murmurings and chitchat stopped immediately.

“Since is your final year in Empire High, the school has finally decided to hold a competition” The teacher announced.

“Competition?” The students asked, and Paige raised her head, she looks at Carding and his eyes were on her.

“Are you all right?” Paige reads his lips, and she nods smiling.

*I’ve to accept the fact that I’ve been whipped by that Demigod* Paige said inwardly, smiling at Carding, who euphorically retuned it.

“Yes a competition” The teacher said and both Carding and Paige turn their gaze to the teacher.

“You’ll be grouped into two, and you and your partner will work on artworks like photographing, sculptures, music, painting and so many more that has to do with you being an art students…

The winners will have the opportunity of getting an A in their grades and also get a chance to study in the Seoul National University, without working or reading so hard to enter the college” The teacher said.

“Wow. When is the competition?” A female student asked.

“Next week, So you all should get ready, schooling in Seoul National University without stress is a big time opportunity” The teacher said and face the board, writing the day’s subject on it.

“I hope I and Angelo becomes partners in the competition, cuz if we win, we’re going to get a chance to school together” Stacey said excitedly.

“Your so $illy Stacey” Sabrina said looking at the teacher, who was already lecturing them.

Stacey looks at Angelo smiling, but her smile faded into a sad face, when Angelo was looking at someone smiling.

“Are you okay now?” Desiree asked, and Paige nods smiling.

“Why were you down ealier?” She asked again.

“I was just organizing my thoughts, but now I’m ok” Paige said and looks at Carding. He was busy jotting down what the teacher was saying.

*Is not bad falling for him, is this how exciting it is falling in love with someone?* She said inwardly, as her face was glued on Carding, smiling.

“Are you going to keep on looking at Carding’s face or listen to me Paige” The teacher said and everyone turns to look at her.

Paige bits her lips.

“Sorry” She muffled, hiding her face.

Carding looks at her and chuckles smiling.

Nadine glared at Paige with so much hate.
