Chapter 3

"Get off me! you're full of sweat-"

“Conyo as ever. I missed youuuuu ~ Bright hair as always! ” Phee frowned even more when the man said that, the guy has blonde hair. Red eyes, bisque skin, natural lips and Roman nose. He glanced at me and smiled, oh great. A flirty type of dude, not to mention he's a vampire.

He first turned to his women and said goodbye, then pulled Phee somewhere. So I just followed, it looks like Phee knows him. We went inside an arcade? Fortunately, the women did not follow him.

“I have some gift for you-

"I don't want it if it's not Ferrero." the man just smiled and nodded. Phee’s face lit up, she’s really a slave for chocoloates. Especially Ferrero Rocher. He patted her head and gave her a non, wait has he been carrying chocolates?

"You must be Maple Quinn."

My lips felt pity and I raised an eyebrow. Phee was busy glaring at the guy. Do I know this dude? I just saw him in my life.

“Have I seen you yet? I do not know you." He laughed, but he went serious.

“Wait seriously? I’m famous. ” I raised an eyebrow even more, famous? I know who this is- “Juno Percival? Famous singer slash idol? Does that ring a bell? ”

I shrugged, I could hear Phee laughing on the side.

“Seriously, I don't even know you. How did you know my name? ” He glanced at Phee and turned to face me. He even smiled.

“I’m Juno Percival. A famous idol and singer, I just arrived in the Philippines. I was surprised you haven’t heard about me yet. ” He held out his hand to shake hands. I just accepted that, I was so kind

"I know, my question is how did you know me?" I repeat, he didn't answer my question. I saw him scratch his head so hard-

“From Pheli? She talks about you a lot. ” I’m not convinced since I feel he’s lying. But he probably has a reason so let's just do it. I wonder why he’s calling her Pheli, it sounds cute too.

"So how much are you?" I asked, he smiled and looked at Phee.

“Her boyfre-

"My childhood friend, he went abroad to purse his dream." Phee replied while still eating chocolate. "Stop lying Juno, why are you here?"

“Ah, I will study here. I stopped being an idol first, homeschooling is hard. ” Phee just nodded and ignored him again, as if angry. "Pheli-"

“Thanks for the chocolate but we have some stuffs to do. We’re leaving first, I guess we’ll see you around. Hello. ” Phee pulled me out but he was still busy eating chocolate. Did they go through something?

"You didn't say you had a childhood friend." Modestly I said to her. We went inside some store to get the supplies, cool. This store is for Leopold students only, their wealth.

“Well, he’s nothing. OH do you want to wear skirts? ” I sighed and sighed. I guess she doesn’t want to talk about it? "Apples?"

“No, I don’t like skirts. Give me some pants-

“Oh! I know, you should wear the upper uniform for girls and lower uniform for boys. You seem to have style. ” I just nodded, because he is also good at fashion. Besides, I don't want to wear a skirt when there's a fight.

We gather up some stuffs and go to the counter.

"Do I really have to sleep?" I asked, the hospital is not far from there. I stay at the hospital because of Berry, its like our home and the owner of the hospital just let us stay without problems. We lived in Phee’s house before the case embarrassed Auntie.

“Yeah, don’t worry. You can go home every weekend, it's really not allowed during the week of classes. ” I sighed and turned to the person who managed our belongings.

I guess I’ll explain everything to Berry then

_

I already told Berry about my new school, I lied that I had a job there and I received a scholarship. She was happy about it and even said that it was ok to be alone. As long as I can finish school.

“Sister, here are your clothes-

“I won't be there for long, will I? How much did you pack? I go home every weekend. ” shee sniffed and stared at me.

"I don't care, as long as its better to be ready." I just sighed and let her go, as if she was going to drive me away too much.

"Apple, are you ready?" Phee peeked at the door, we were going to go together since he was also studying…

It’s already Sunday and class is open, the speed of time. Berry waved and Phee, Phee came in and hugged Berry.

"I've been anxious to hug you, look at your fwuffy cheeks." Phee said smiling as he squeezed Berry's cheek.

we turned to knock, it was a nurse watching over Berry. Nurse Fawn, she smiled and approached us. She has been taking care of Berry for a long time.

“Oh? Are you leaving Apple? ” I nodded and arranged my bag.

"I'm just going to study." My answer. "You'll take care of her, sister."

Since we have known each other for a long time, she prefers us to call her sister than nurse. She’s still young too and she’s human.

“I'll take care of Berry, study hard huh? Phee, watch Apple too. ” Phee saluted.

“Aye aye captain! I'll take care of it sister. Come on Apple, the driver is waiting for us. ” Phee came out first, I looked at Berry. She nodded and smiled, I hugged her.

“I’ll miss you."

"You're going home again. It's okay, study hard, Apple. ” I kissed her forehead and left. I met some nurses and greeted them, the staffs at the hospital were kind.

I just don't know why we are being kept in the hospital. I haven't met the owner too, as long as they just let us in and took good care of us. We hardly get paid either case I insist, its just weird. Not to mention oversized hospital, as In oversized.

When I got to the gate I saw Phee… and Juno? What is he doing here? He was looking at the hospital, it looks like Phee talked to them. Phee looks serious too-

“Will you just stand there apple? We need to go naaa ~ ”I’m surprised she noticed me. Juno looked at me and smiled, what is he doing here? Is he here for Phee? I approached them, he brought his own car.

"What are you doing here Juno?" I will ask.

"Ah no, I was just checking something." Or someone? Heh. Phee pulled me over and put me in the car. She looks mad, I can't hear what they're talking about. Juno looks worried too, Phee entered.

"Let's go." The driver nodded, what's up? I just often see Phee getting angry. She won’t make some fuss about small things, what are they talking about?

****

"PHEWWW, here's all your stuff!" I sat down on my bed.

Fudge, oversized school. Why so many buildings ?! Not to mention their structures are almost the same. I feel like I'll lose it tomorrow-

"Are you okay? Should we go on a school tour? ” I frowned at what she said, was she joking? its like i walked in a small city. How high is their roof? Seriously- even though it's beautiful, it's still too big. “Come on, I'm hungry. Besides, it's almost night. ”

It's really good and my dorm mate is Phee, well that prince owned this school. Maybe Phee just insisted, I also don't want to be alone here. this place is full of vampires, its weird because I only noticed a few people when we walked towards the dorm.

"Phee, have I seen so few students?" I asked her.

“Hmm? Oh maybe because of the party this midnight, I think it’s a welcome party for the princes who own the school. ” Wait what? Princes? They are many? I gave her a questionable look. “Ah you don't know? Kill has three more siblings. ”

Ah, is he going to be around his brothers? Only his brother can take care of him.

“They hate Kill though, since he is the next heir of the family. Even though they are siblings, they are not close. Even the other 3 brothers, what they have in common is that they hate the youngest. I do not know." He just shrugged and sighed. “Woi Apple, let's go to the cafeteria. I'm hungry."

I just nodded because I was also hungry. When we came out of the dorm room the wind blew on us, we’re at the 4th and last floor of the dorm. This dorm is for normal human students, there is a protection barrier for vampires. Just in case someone suddenly attacks us.

“You know Apple, there are also a lot of normal people here so its ok. You don't have to worry about anything. ” I didn't answer, I just took out my earphones and phone.
