One
A girl of slender figure sat outside the airport, distracted. Her pale face was more paler due to travelling in the air for more hours. It was her first time, in air and was badly affected due to jetlag. Her head was spinning yet her thoughts were clear. She was deeply thinking about why she came to Tokyo....
It all began like this.....
"Isabelle, you have to go there! It's a very rare opportunity." A middle-aged lady said to Isabelle. Isabelle was frozen. She didn't want to leave her soil and study at an unknown place. She was reluctant in not leaving India.
The lady before Isabelle is her Principal. Isabelle has known her since kindergarten. Her principal, Ms.Natalie is a kind, tender and wonderful women.
Though leaving India is difficult for Isabelle, but she knew that it won't really be difficult if she adapted in Tokyo. All she fears is about leaving her family, friends and her beloveds. Isabelle is someone, who cherishes her people. She can not afford to leave them just to continue her higher studies.
"But... It's new there. Everything is. I don't know if I will survive there. I--"
"Remember your family condition. It's... Well, I rather not say. Think about them, then you would go. It's something that's gonna help you and your family. Think wisely."
My family, huh?
Isabelle's father died months ago due to pneumonia. Her mother went through and is going through a hard time to support the family. Isabelle has a younger brother and an elder sister. It was indeed difficult for her mother to make a livelihood as her father's medication consumed a lot of money. She wanted to improvise or at least help her mother.
I want to help my mother.... And this opportunity is something only a few lucky ones on this world gets... I shouldn't waste it!
Isabelle got a chance to continue her higher studies at "Peak Emperor High". Peak Emperor High is a prestigious, global school situated in Tokyo. It is a surprise to her on how she got to go there. The School has provided her with more offers, which favours her family.
Isabelle looked up at Ms.Natalie and told her is a serious tone, " I will go there! I will go to peak emperor high!"
Ms.Natalie's lips curled up to a perfect cunning smile. "That's great!"
"All the formalities had been taken care of by me. You would go to Tokyo tomorrow. I have prepared a place of my distinct relative for you to stay. The residents are all high schoolers. Um, don't worry! They speak English!.... I hope you have a good High School life, belle..." Though Ms.Natalie gave off a vibrant smile, deep down she felt guilty for her doings. But she herself couldn't help it.
"That sounds great!" Isabelle let out a sigh. She was too much worried that she has to learn Japanese, but luck's all in her hand, she doesn't have to learn Japanese.
A honk made Isabelle get out of her thoughts. She saw a cab with the same number plate as given by Ms.Natalie.
This car is the one!
She made herself seated inside the car and stretched out her hands which grip on a card. "You may need this card"
The card contained information about the place where she was supposed to live during her three years of high school. Isabelle never bothered to open and see it. She was simply not interested.
"We are going to Peak Emperor High first, miss!" He reminded Her in his matured voice. The driver seemed suspicious as he gave off some different vibes.
"Oh yeah!..." Isabelle forgot about the fact as all she thought about was one question.
Is my decision right?
The driver flashed a dreadful smirk as he saw Isabelle.
Your decision was wrong! But you have no other choice but to go there! The driver is not a simple driver but Isabelle never realized that.
"Are you new to Tokyo, miss?" The driver began a conversation.
"Y-Yeah..." Isabelle felt a bit uneasy.
I not regret it! It's gonna be a new beginning.
He smirked again seeing something and said, "We are here, miss!"
"Um.. Thank you!" Isabelle slowly got off the cab and stood still before the School building.
"It indeed suits its name!" She mumbled in wonder.
"Yes! It does right?" A sweet voice said. Isabelle turned around.
"Who are you?"
