Love Like Fireflies
Intro:Cupid's Mission.
Winter was different from rest of the girls. Not that she was outdated but one that loved silence all her life. Lost her mother at a young age and lived alone. The loneliness made her daydreaming and living in her own world. She watched the fireflies at the lake every night smiling as she touched them.
Winter
Is mom's love as beautiful as these fireflies? If I could have her beside me...like I have them...I wouldn't be lonely and scared.
Cupid saw her from above.
Cupid
Hmm...So she is the one huh? My next mission is to let them meet. Next I have to find the boy.
The God of Love flies away to meet the one for her.
Meanwhile he sits alone on a treetop, watching the night sky.
Justin Lycas never goes home because his rich dad doesn't care about him.
Two minds with a sad fate and lonely life. Their destiny is decided by Cupid. When Cupid shoots his arrow, two people lock their hands in one and share the same heart. The bond grows to fall in love.
Cupid
Oh, so this is the second one? Great!...here goes it.
Cupid shoots his love arrow for a new story to begin.
Benovalent High: Part 1.
This is the ST. Franklin Benovalent High school situated near the eternal garden of memory. It was one of the best schools for the nobles in country, famous for its etiquette style of teaching and high academic results. But later the school established a new law which allowed to recruit ordinary students.
Winter was a sponsored student who made her transfer to Benovalent High as a result of her high academic scores. Its the first day after the school reopened in the new year.
Winter
*Whispers to herself*
(Wow...it's so beautiful. I finally made it to Benovalent High. The school is more prosperous than it is said to be. I wish I can get along well with them.)
Student A
Have you heard about the school recruiting ordinary students from lowly backgrounds?
Student B
Yeah...It was something stupid done by the school. Now there will be more clashes and commotion among the students.
Student A
Humph...You are right!. How can they even stand a chance against us?!
Winter enters the classroom as the bell rings.
Student A
Hey, isn't she the new transfer from the common mass?
Student B
Yes.
She has no shame at all to enter the noble campus.
The Head Teacher enters the classroom.
Head Teacher
Quite down class!
Head Teacher
Oh...are you the newly transferred student?
Please Introduce yourself.
Winter
Hello!...*smiles*.
My name is Winter and I transferred from Elda Mary High school. I hope we can get along well.
Head Teacher
Ok Winter, why don't you take your seat near Emma?
Emma
*Slams her bottle on the desk and spills water on Winter's seat*
Oops...now you better not sit here as its wet.
Head Teacher
Uh...then why don't you sit beside Leo?
Leo
Ugh...don't come near me, you smell.
*Places his shoes on the seat beside him*
Head Teacher
Ok that's enough.
Winter can occupy the seat in the corner of the last row. *Points*
Student B
*Whispers*
(Ugh...Look at her, how can she just go sit there like nothing happened?!)
Winter
*Aside*
(Its still the same...I'm just a nobody here, weak and shameless.
*Tears roll down her cheek*
No!...I have to stay strong. Come on Winter, you have to concentrate on working hard. Little brother is counting on you. Mother once told me that I have to look after him.)
Winter has an adopted little brother who is half her age.
Years back an accident encountered the family that snatched her mother from her and left her little brother paralyzed. She has been living alone since then.
Head Teacher
*Aside*
(Hmm...that boy rarely came to school last year and still doesn't come on the first day of school.
*Sighs*
But its a relief that he scores the top rank in the school.)

Back to Benovalent High school campus.
Emma
Hey, lowly girl...let me Introduce you to our leader.
Sherly approaches Winter.
Sherly
Is this the new bitch that is destined to be my slave?!
*Smirks*
Sherly
*Pulls Winter's chin*
Eew...you look so dirty.
Student
*Panting*
Sherly...its...
He came...to school today!
Sherly
*Shocked*
Wha...what?!
Sherly
Hah!...we'll deal with her later. I should be the one to be seen by him first.
Let's go...
The gossip group leaves the room.
Winter
*Whispers to herself*
(Phew...they're gone for now.)
???
*Places her hand around Winter's shoulder*
Hina
Long time no see Winter.
Rainbow Valley, XX street.
Gangster A
Boss, look...there is a little girl alone at the street.
Gang Leader
It's my lucky day...that's a hot chick indeed. The pleasure of drinking alcohol and enjoying young girls is the same...haha.
Gang Leader
Go!...catch her for me.
Winter
*Whispers to herself*
(Why is he coming towards me?!)
Gangster A
*Grabs her arm*
Winter
Aah...who?...who are you?!
Gangster A
Little girl...*sticks tongue out*...my Boss needs you for tonight. Be obedient and come with me...
Winter
No!...Let me go...
*Struggles*
Hina
*Aside*
(What are they doing?!)
Hina approaches the gangster.
Hina
*Slaps*...
*Pulls back Winter*
Gangster A
You!...*grits teeth*
Hina knocks the gangster down with a hard kick between his legs.
Hina
*Grabs Winter and runs*.
Gang Leader
Useless piece of shit💢
👊*bang*.
They ran down the street and stopped before a market *panting*.
Hina
Are you okay?
Where do you live?
Winter
I'm fine...thank you so much. I live in the east of the city.
*Aside*
( After nine years, I finally met someone I can trust besides my mother. We got along since then. I could have made friends long before but I was afraid of how people would judge me. She is the person who told me never to stop living. Even if you face unmovable obstacles in life, take a different path rather than giving up.)
Winter
Hina...*Hugs*
How come you're here?! You said that you left the noble campus.
Hina
Hee hee...I fooled you.
I wanted to surprise you when you transfer.
Winter
Great that you're here...or I would be lonely.
Hina
Silly...how can I leave you to the bullies?!
All of a sudden, high cries of cheering started to build up outside the classroom.
Heavy footsteps approached.
