"Pay your rent, Eerrah! I've been waiting for months for you to send the payment but you kept on declining my calls!"

"Heck," I whispered angrily when I heard the landlady's voice again.

"You kept on whispering something. You think I can't hear it?!" she screamed. She even threw me a wooden spoon which I quickly caught.

"I haven't found another job yet, so I can't give you--"

"You said the same thing last month--"

"Can you talk to me without raising your voice?!" I shouted loudly, she looked surprised when I burst out. She immediately shut her mouth.

"Where are we again?" I asked annoyed, she didn't say anything and just swallowed.

"You can't ask me for a payment and dig into my money because even, I, myself can't dig. Okay? But I'll make sure to make a way. Tomorrow I'll make a way." I gestured her to leave. I can't even stand a minute with her.

""Just make sure that you're telling the truth, or I'll drag you--"

"Drag me out from this room and I really won't come out breathing," I said, continuing what she's about to say. For pete's sake,she said that to me for hundred times already!

"Make sure to pay me tomorrow, Eerrah. Be thankful that you're beautiful that's why I'm giving you a chance," she said before leaving my apartment, I looked in the mirror. Well, I am, really beautiful, and cute.

I forced myself to take a bath and get dress for school. Speaking about school. School is my playground. I grinned mischievously.

After taking a bath I wore a black plain t-shirt and black jeans. I matched it with my black nike and black cap. It looks like I was about to attend a funeral.

After getting dressed. I grabbed my backpack and locked the apartment. The school is not far from my apartment, but I am a special person so I used my magical skateboard.

I twisted it around on my feet before finally riding it towards the school. As soon as I entered the school gate, the others immediately looked at me.

I stepped on the end of the board to make it stand, I picked it up and carried it to my locker. All the students left when they saw me, even though they couldn't see my face, they already knew it was me.

I slipped my skateboard inside and picked up two books for my class. I looked behind me when I saw some students, I noticed I was the only one in the locker now.

"Why are you standing there and watching me?" I asked them, they all took a step backward at the same time.

"We're j-just waiting for you." I felt the frustration all over my body because of that answer. These guys are really cowards.

I just shook my head and closed my locker, as soon as I left they all went to their lockers. I don't know what's running inside their minds and they're really scared of me, It's not like I'm going to tear them apart.

I slammed the classroom door open. I looked inside when everyone remained silent. I sat straight in my chair. I really hate silence. I just want noise in my life. I prepared my foot and quickly kicked the chair of the man in front me, I immediately bowed so he turned his gaze to the man next to me who hunched over. He was taken aback when the man in front us hit him.

"You ass hole, are you trying to pick up a fight?!" I grinned mischievously when the man in front us shouted angrily. It's Eivan.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" Keat shouted. The man who's sitting next to me.

"You think you can get away from what you did? You kicked my chair?!" I bit my lower lip. I'm getting bored. They should start a fight.

"What? I never kicked you! I was sleeping- "My mouth fell open when Eivan suddenly punched him, ending up knocking him down from his seat. He quickly stood up and punched Eivan who also fell on the ground.

Tsk, stupid men.

KeatgrabbedEivan and kicked him in the most sensitive part of his body. Heck! That's a great move! They stopped fighting when Keat backed away. "Stop! I don't know where your anger came from."

"You kicked my chair!" Eivan shouted angrily.

"It's not me who did it! It's probably Eerrah!" Keat growled and even pointed at me. I stumbled, these two are the only ones who aren't afraid of me in this school. They have the guts to fight back but I always win against them.

"Eerrah!" I raised a brow when Eivan called my name.

"Oh?" I asked. He was about to approach me but I quickly raised my leg and kicked him in the face, I remained seated. My classmates shouted when he fell on the floor with his nose, bleeding.

"What's the commotion all about ?!" Everyone fell silent when our professor came in. And she really even have some time to ask us, as if she wasn't used to all of these.

"What is this all about again, Eerrah?" she asked me with her strict voice when she saw Eivan lying on the floor.

"Probably, a trouble," I politely replied. I didn't budge when I answered her but she still raise a brow. I'm being honest here but she even got mad at me. Honesty is the best policy.

"In my office, after class!" she roared. I was stunned with that. Her office seems to be my second home.

Hours passed by until four classes ended peacefully.

I was planning to run away from Mrs. Gamelo but heck! She's waiting for me at the door! "You can't escape from me, Era. Follow me!" I just zipped up my bag before following her to the office. As soon as I sat down, she looked at me seriously.

"Aren't you really going to change, Eerrah? We're doing everything we can to change you, but you're still acting like that!We promised your grandfather that-- "

"My Grandpa? He's talking to you?" I asked her curiously. "Of course. He's the one who told us to tolerate your attitude and to fix the mess you're starting. He told us not to drop you out,he's hoping thatyou'll graduate here. This is your last chance, Eerrah, don't waste--"

"Cut if off, I don't want to hear that," I cut her off. I crouched down while playing with my fingers. For almost 3 years, he didn't even check my condition when he dragged me out from his house. And now he's hoping that I'll live a peaceful life?

The hell? He doesn't have the rights to order me around.

"Do you have a problem why you're acting like that, Eerrah?" I turned to Mrs. Gamelo when she spoke. I cleared my throat. "No, isn't it obvious on my face that I don't have a problem? Also, don't talk to grandpa anymore, he's out of his mind." Fortunately, I'm good at acting sometimes.

"Era, you better talk to your grandfather. He has high expectations for you." I gritted my teeth in anger.

"You guys are really terrible, you're expecting high from people and you really expect them to reach that? Mind your own business and stop bothering other people. You don't understand me, you're not in my position to say those things," I said coldly, calming myself.

"Era, it's not what you think. Your grandfather and the professors here just want you to reach your dream--"

"Why? Are you even aware of what my dream is?" I laughed while asking that. They interfere too much with things that they should not be paying attention to.

"No--"

"Then stop controlling me. Tell grandpa that I will never go back to his house," I said before leaving her office. I took a deep breath before heading straight to the rooftop. I closed my eyes when I felt how the wind hit my face.

I am a fearless, yes. I don't normally get scared of someone, but when it comes to my grandfather, I seem to stiffen and swallow everything I say. 3 years ... For 3 years I never felt his love for me as a grandfather, when he found out that I got kicked out of my school, he kicked me out of the mansion and threw me out like garbage. He even called me a 'garbage' that he can't throw away. Even dad was helpless in what grandpa did. Dad can't even do anything because my grandfather is really powerful.

I want to ask the world, why? Why does it need to be him? In such a huge world and with so many responsible grandfathers why does it have to be him? I wonder if everything will be the same if my mother is here? Would I still experience this? How I wonder that I know her, I hope she doesn't abdicate her responsibility as my mother. I really wish that she's here.

I went down to the rooftop and decided to go through the hallway first. But as soon as I got there, my eyes narrowed when I saw a statue of a man, in front of him was another man but I think it's a student.

"I really don't k-know where she is. Please, h-have some mercy!" the student begged. What the hell is going on here? I was about to approach them but I backed away again when I saw the mysterious man lift the student. He's freaking tall!

"Tell me where the hell is she or I'll kill you." I gasped with what I heard.

"I don't know-" I closed my eyes when I saw the man cut the student's neck without thinking twice. The student fell on the ground, unconscious.

Damn, he's really strong! He was about to leave but I couldn't just stand and stare here when he harmed someone in front of me!

"Hey!" I chased after him quickly, fortunately, he also stopped immediately and faced me. In fairness, he's handsome. "Eerrah," he said while grinning. My eyebrows raised.

"And how did you know my name?" I'm curious about him, is he one of Vladimir's people?

"I have my own ways to know about it." I almost choked from my own saliva with his answer.

"What?!"

"We are mafias, Eerrah. And we also need you." I almost choked on my own saliva. Is it stupid?

Who is he fooling? His mother?

"After you kill someone, you'll tell me that, huh? Are you addicted, huh ?!" I shout at him. Pusha, what does this man think of me?!

"I'm not a fucking addict!"

"You seem to be possessed by two demons! Why would I come with you if you are a mafia? And who's stupid to brag that you're that kind of person? That was supposed to be a secret! "

"Eerrah, just come with me."

"Are you one of Vladimir's people? If you are here to make me believe your lies and kill me, you will never fool me," I said boldly.

"Vladimir? You know him? Vladimir Enriquez?" His forehead furrowed even more. I cleared my throat. So he really knew that man?

"You can't make me--"

"No! He's our opponent, Eternity. He's the creator of Vlad Organization, and they want to kill the supreme president of Empires High. I know you can help us because I saw you once, fighting with those bunch of fuckers and you're freaking capable of killing someone! So just come with me, "he pleaded. Even though I could see the sincerity in his eyes, I still turned my back on him and started walking.

"I'm not going with you," I said coldly.

"Eternity believe me--" I quickly grabbed his hand and aimed the dagger at his neck.

"Stop calling me with my second name and stop following me around. You can't fool me by pretending like a clueless man, I know you're here to kill me." I looked at him but he didn't move an inch. I started walking again and left him.

"Someday, you'll come with me, Eternity."

When I came down from the building, Yaoel stopped me immediately. Great. Grandpa's butler.

"Where have you been young lady? Your grandfather is asking you to--"

"Can you just fucking leave me alone? Tell him I don't want to come with you, please also tell him that I don't want to see him even once," I said emphatically before walking away, but they're really eager to bring me with him because they kept on following me until now!

"We're not leaving without you, young lady. You have to come with us. It's your grandpa's order." I closed my eyes because of the anger that's slowly triggering my system. I wiped my face as I face them.

"Just leave me alone please." I don't want to cry in front of them, I don't want them to witness my weaknesses. And they are bunch of intelligent people, why can't they understand that I never want to come?

I quickly ran away from them, even if they chase me they could do nothing. I went straight to the locker room to get my skateboard. I lost the urge to attend classes. Classes are fucking boring whenever I'm stress out. I grabbed my bag in the back and started using my skateboard. A few students on the field immediately avoided me. On the way home I was thinking about how I could escape that old man, I'm wondering why he's still looking for me? My life is better without him. I don't need him to guide me.

I bit my lower lip when I saw my apartment. I almost forgot about it. I really need money right now, I quickly got off from my skateboard until I reached the gate of the apartment. I went inside and immediately threw myself on the sofa. I held my growling stomach when I felt how hungry I am.

I went straight to the kitchen and opened my refrigerator. I blinked multiple times when I got the chance to see what's inside. What's happening? Am I dreaming?! Why is my refrigerator full of food? I had no money and had run out of all my stock in the refrigerator so this is surprising. I closed the refrigerator and looked at the top of it. I was not mistaken. I took the envelope on the top with a letter and money worth 15 thousand.

You're so stubborn. Eternity. Here's your allowance, your grandfather has already paid the landlady and advanced. Eat well, I love you daughter. I'm sorry, I'll check with you when I'm not busy.

From Dad

I smiled when I saw my favorite lasagna. I sat on the sofa and unpacked it. My all time favorite food! After I ate two lasagnas. A noise immerses me. I opened the door and the landlady raised an eyebrow at me. I thought my father already paid for my rent?

"Hey, who's the rich guy who paid your rent?" I rolled my eyes in annoyance.

"My uncle," I lied before closing the door on her face.

"Son of a cow!" I screamed when I heard a noise from my kitchen. What the heck was that?

That noise really made an impact. I hurriedly went to my kitchen, but I immediately backed away when I saw this man who kept on pestering me. "What the hell are you doing here, Kaliber? I told you to stop following me around! What the hell do you want? I asked him.

I'm starting to become a noisy person because of this man "I'm not going to kill you, Eternity! You need to come with me!" he pleaded.

"I don't know what's running inside your mind, but I'm not coming with you," I told him before sitting down on the sofa. He sat down in front of me while his eyes were still begging.

"Eternity, just come with me! I'll take you to Empires High and you can live there. We'll provide everything you need there, it's that easy." I hit the table hard because of what he said. Do I look like I'm playing with him?

"I'm not a child! For goodness sake! I'm not a freaking fool to believe you!" I shouted angrily. He sighed before looking straight to my eyes.

"Eternity, just this time. Give me some time to explain it. Just come with me, please. The Vlads are planning to kill my boss and they'll come for you also! So you need to come with me." This jerk is really giving me frustrations. What does he take me for?

He kept on calling me by my second name like we're freaking close. I don't even known his name!

And what kind of person will go with the person who's claiming that he's a mafia, and then he'll offer you to go to a school I'm not even aware that's existing?! What kind of person?! I guess only stupid people will believe in this guy.

"What's your name?" I asked him with a frown. "Caliber, Caliber is my name." I nodded, Caliber's a nice name but I don't  like him.

"Tell me honestly," I told him seriously. He immediately looked at me.

"What?"

"Are taking some drugs or--"

"Of course not! Why would I get myself involve in that shit? What do you take me for? A stupid person?"

"Yes! You're right! I consider you as a stupid person!" I shouted back. I can't believe that this is the effect of drugs to him.

He's insane! "I don't like the things that's coming from your mouth. I could easily kill you in one snap!" he threatened me. I shrugged my shoulders.

"Go on, do it. You think I'll let you?" I asked him with a smile.

"But I can't! Why don't we just settle things as we go to Empires High? Right? Let's fucking calm down," he uttered in annoyance. This man is really getting into my nerves.

"Get the hell out of my house now," I told him.

"And why would I?" he asked with a smile as if I'm required to give him enough reason to leave my house.

"Because I said so," I answered back. I pulled his clothes and threw him hard in front of my door but he just glared at me.

"But--"

"Stop saying things because I'm going insane! I might beat you to death, Caliber," I threatened him before pushing him out.

"If I can't force you, I'll definitely make a way," he said seriously. I mocked him before rolling my eyes.

"Get out," I said.

"Please, Eerrah-"

"Get out!" I shouted. He just sighed before walking out. Damn! I feel like I'm slowly losing my sanity because of that man.

I rinsed my body first before putting on a t-shirt and a pajama, I put on my jacket and rode my skateboard. It's late so there are no people outside. I kept on running the skateboard while avoiding things on my surroundings. When I got to 7/11, I immediately looked for soft drinks in a can. I also paid for it right away at the counter and decided to leave.

I was on my way home when I felt someone's presence behind my back. Someone's following me. I turned to the corner and hid first on the wall. I waited for 5 minutes but when I realized that there's nothing strange at all, I came out.

"What the hell," I said as soon as I came out and a shadow of a man was already in front of me. What kind of animal is this? "Who the hell are you?" I asked, he didn't answer causing me to roll my eyes.

"Eerrah." What?! That's me! We have the same name?

I just ignored it because him, maybe it's Caliber again, trying to making fun at me. I had to stay away from him because he might drive me crazy with so much frustration. I tried to avoid him, but he immediately stopped me from passing by. A figure of a man stood right in front me. He's between 40 plus I think?

"Who the hell are you?" I repeated my question just now.

"You're really beautiful just like what they said." I was shocked by what he said. Oh gosh, he's a fan of mine? Small things.

"Probably, I'm hot and beautiful. So get out!" I gestured him to get out from my sight but he immediately blocked my path so I stepped on the end of the board and bent my foot to escape him.

My eyes widened when I felt his cold hand on my arm, trying to pull me. I pulled my arm away and threw him on the floor, I groaned when he pulled my leg, but I immediately spin in the air and clung to my board once again slapping his head on the board.

My whole body stopped when I felt the tip of his gun on my neck as if it would shoot me at any moment. I close my eyes tightly.

"Just come with me, don't try to leave so that you won't be in trouble anymore," he whispered in my ear. This man looks like he's new at this job. He's pointing a gun right in front of me and he'll tell me that I won't be in trouble?

"As if I care you old man," I whispered to him. I will never let him underestimate me just because I am a woman. Men like him deserves to die.

"You have a lot of words to say huh? I'm even more excited to kill you woman!" Even before he fired his gun, I held it using both of my hands and quickly turned around, I bent down so that in case he fired the gun I would not be hit. I hit his testicles before kicking him hard in the face.

I bit my lower lip when he managed to stood up after my counter attack. He's pissing me off.
