Chapter 3

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.

Chapter 4

All my worries and doubts vanished when someone kicked him straight in the face. It's Caliber.

The man stood up and rushed at me, I was not paying attention so I did not see his attack. But I'm just thankful that Caliber caught the man's fist and grabbed his foot. I groaned heavily before laughing when the man fell on his buttocks. Strike 1!

Caliber knelt down, unsatisfied. He pulled the man's hair and pushed it to the floor. He even punched his bleeding nose.

"I knew it! They're following you and they're going to come at you, let's go." I frowned when Caliber pulled me over, I thought I will be able to watch a nice show. Live boxing and wrestling is really fun.

We got home quickly, I sat on the sofa and he sat down as well. I looked at Caliber who's now massaging his nape. It looks like he's carrying the whole world's problem with his expression right now.

"I told you Eerrah! They're following you so they'll have a freaking chance to kill you! If you come with me earlier and follow us, your life will be easier." I looked away.

"No. Thank you for saving me a while ago, Caliber. But you can't change my mind," I finally said.

"Damn! You're crazy! Just come with me! Please!" he begged me. I sighed before shaking my head as an answer.

"I won't come with you." I stood up from the sofa and walked away from him, he also stood up just to annoy me even more.

"Eerrah. I'm begging you, just this once," he pleaded. I glared at him, I'm not going anywhere.

"No, it's better if you leave right now, Caliber. Thank you for saving me. "I closed my eyes as he nodded his head before leaving.

I went up to my room and stretched out on the bed. It feels like my body was beaten up.

I turned my gaze in front when Mrs. Gamelo entered with a woman. New student?

"Young lady. Introduce yourself." Woah, it's really good and I haven't been through this 'introduce yourself in front of many animals' before.

"Hello, everyone! I am Aeiou!" the new student said while smiling. She blinked before pointing at the small name tag on the uniform. What? Her name's spell like vowels?

"Thank you for that, Aeiou. You can sit beside Eerrah." I lazily raised my hand so this woman that I would like to call 'vowels' could see me. But my eyes narrowed when she smiled. She has a crush on me. Yeah, that's it. Gosh, my charms are really strong.

"Hello, Eerrah," Aeiou greeted me when she sat down beside me. I just smirked. She adjusted her glasses before smiling broadly.

"Tsk, shh, you're so noisy," I told her. She pouted her lips before avoiding my gaze. Nice, she's good and obedient.

I just slept the whole class until I felt someone shaking my shoulder. I looked up in annoyance before rubbing my eyes.

"Who gave you permission to disturb my sleep?" I asked Aeiou who's now in front me. What does she need this time? My autograph?

"Ma'am Gamelo said that you're assigned to tour me around the school. She also told me that if you refused, they would call your dad and ask--"

"The heck okay fine! They doesn't even need to threaten me using my dad. Come on, I'll eat first before I swallow you." I took my bag on my table before walking out from the room.

She just followed me which she really should! I might not be able to calm myself down and I might even hit her. Good thing that dad taught me about patience.

Oh, patience?

I don't have one.

When we arrived at the cafeteria, nothing even changed at all, the students still look like animals.

We found a comfortable table near the entrance, we sat there.

"I'll treat you, Eerrah! What do you want?" This Aeiou is really having fun with me. I don't need friends so she should stop by now.

"Lasagna, three orders. Then juice." She nodded and even exposed her teeth with braces so I almost threw her out of the chair, fortunately she was gone. I might hit her on the face is she smile in front of me again.

When it took too long for vowels to returned, I got up from my seat. I called a student's attention and told him to reserve my seat before walking in front of the cafeteria. My eyes caught vowels in front of the group of men.

"Why are you wearing your glasses anyway? I'm sure you'll look pretty without it. You're so lame." I groaned when I saw MJ, the leader of that gang I don't even know what name is.

"I'm wearing my glasses because my eyes are blurry." I was almost taken aback by what vowels said. Nice, she's a good one.

"You're really trying my patience," MJ roared in silence, I saw his simple gesture to his men so I quickly entered before he even do something to Aeiou.

"Very arrogant, indeed," I said while shaking my head causing all of the attention went to me, even MJ.

"Eerrah? You clearly told me before that I can d-do everything I want!" he said with a panic in his voice.

"That woman is not included in my contract. Leave her alone, try to touch that woman again and I will kill you." I gestured Aeiou to leave but as soon as I turned around I stopped by what MJ said.

"You're that kind of woman who wants to stick her nose around other people's business. That's why your grandfather never wants to claim you." I grinned before facing him. How did he find out about me and my grandfather's problem?

"Stop bragging about that," I said emphatically but he just smiled. I clenched my fists in anger.

"How did you find out about us?" I asked him.

"I have many connections-" I didn't let him finish his sentence. I quickly approached this man and kicked him. I pulled his collar and dropped him, he fell along with the broken table. I wasn't still satisfied with that, I went up to him and strangled him in the neck. "Don't you dare use my situation here! You don't know my story! "

"Eerrah! Eerrah. Stop! Please stop it! You might kill MJ!" I only realized when I heard the voices of the professors. I came back to senses when I felt someone pull me away, I watched MJ cough as he turned pale.

Damn! I shouldn't be killing in public!

Chapter 5

"Really? You almost killed my son, you brat. What did my son do to you huh?! Tell me!" I closed my eyes when the fastest rapper in the world spoke again. MJ's mother is louder than him.

. "Can you lower you voice? I hate people who have loud and big mouth," I answered her. Aeiou's grip on my arm tightened.

"Eerrah!" The dean scolded me. I rolled my eyes because of that. They didn't even make sure if I was the one who started the fight. I'm just trying to stop this guy from bullying someone!

"See?! See how rude that girl's mouth! Didn't your father teach you the right manners?!"MJ's mother shouted again.

I mocked her inside my mind. Didn't your father teach you to be quiet for a while?

"You don't have the rights to insult my daughter, miss." My eyes widened when I saw dad at the door. I came back to senses when he sat down beside me. I wanted to cry in happiness because I had a chance to see him again. He smiled sweetly at me. This man! I miss him so much!

"Excuse me? First of all, your daughter tried to kill my son--"

Daddy chuckled. "Calm down, miss. It's good that he's not dead yet. Just calm down, you're too mad." I laughed at my father's stupidity. I saw how MJ's mother and even the dean gasped in shock.

"Wow. Now look, where else will a breed less woman inherit--"

"It's not necessary, miss. My daughter is not a freaking dog at the first place. And I'm sure that my daughter won't cause any trouble unless someone started it. Be thankful that I didn't bring my gun here before I even shoot you," dad answered while flashing a sweet smile.

The woman's face paled. I simply tap dad's shoulder. "Just kidding, you're taking it seriously," he added.

"Mr. Ferrer. We just want to tell you that Eerrah has many records throughout the year. And we don't tolerate this kind of attitude. Eerrah's grandfather begged us to kick her out from this school as well." I was shocked by what the dean said. My grandfather wanted to kick me out? As if he never begged the teachers to make sure that I'll graduate here.

"My father? And you actually believe in that old man? You moron. You have your own brain to decide whatever's good for my daughter. The hell with that fucking old man and he has the power to control you?!" I saw daddy's neck turn red because of anger. I held his shoulder to calm him down.

"We're sorry, sir. But it's the only way to control your daughter. We can't handle her anymore--"

"Really? That's why when my father forced you not to let Eerrah go, you did it, and now that he's forcing you to kick my daughter out, you're going to do it also? Stop giving me some reasons to justify your greed! The hell with you!" I was shocked by daddy's sudden swearing. The dean also got up from his seat. I quickly pulled my dad out of the office before he could even harm someone.

"Dad! You don't have to swear at them!" I told him.

"They're testing my patience, Eerrah! Those are bunch of people who kept on begging for money! They can't even decide on their own!" he defended himself.

"Really? You have patience?" I mocked him. He chuckled before he shook his head.

"I have no patience, of course. But they're really getting into my nerves! I don't how much money dad paid them. They're like a group of dogs whose waiting for their owner to let them eat. I hate these kind of people," he added.

"You shouldn't get yourself involve in this mess I created," I said worriedly, he just shook his head.

"I need to defend you! I am your father for goodness sake! And didn't you see that dean's face? He turned pale-"

"Dad enough," I scolded before turning my back on Aeiou who's next to me.

"Eerrah, I'll go first," Aeiou said shyly. I just nodded at her. Daddy smiled broadly at me after Aeiou left.

"What now, dad?" I asked him to change the subject.

"I have no choice, daughter, but I think I need to find a new school for you. It's not that easy for you to move because you have a lot of records. Why did you inherit being a trouble maker from me? But anyway, I'll do my best to find a school as soon as possible." I nodded and smiled at him. He's really the best!

"DADDY! Why did you bring that woman with us? As far as I know, I was the only one expelled from the school and she was not with me," I said irritably before pointing at Aeiou who's now upset of what I did. Is she really the one who's upset while I'm the one who doesn't know what's going on? I'm confused of what's happening right now! I'm almost losing my sanity.

We're in front of my apartment right now. Daddy said he will take me now to the school he is referring to. Empires High. That's the name of the school and I'm not familiar with it. Though I heard it from... Caliber?

Heck! Is this some sort of coincidence?

"Because I'm with you, it's as simple as that Eternity." I almost slapped Aeiou with the suitcase I was carrying because of her answer.

"Answer me honestly or I'll rip your jaw. Why are you with us?" I threatened her. She automatically stopped me before speaking up.

"Fine! If you know Caliber, he ordered me to watch over you. " I looked sharply at her.

"Caliber's watching over me?" I asked while raising an eyebrow. That man and his wicknedness.

"Ahh, yeah? I just said that, Eerrah." This nerd is really getting into my nerves.

Actually, she's really beautiful, she doesn't have an eyeglass now and she's relaxed. It's better for her so that she doesn't look miserable.
