Episode 1: Selflessness

My name is Sienna. I'm in my senior year and a spoil princess, that's what everyone thought. I don't have friends in this school. Everyone hated me because I dated with one of the popular guy in school.

Today, I'm in front of my parents kneeling with guilty.

"Do you hear me?!" My mom yells. My dad sitting beside her trying to calm her down.

"Hum? Oh umm..." I scratch my head because I didn't hear what she said.

"Don't 'oh umm' me! I told you not to fight but you didn't listen and now you're suspended for 2 weeks!" She said. I could see her tears are welling in her eyes. For the first time I look right into her eyes and could see she's hurt. Because of me.

"I promise. I will never do that again." I said. I look down on my lab. Tears startmto drop one by one and flown like a stream. How could I bring myself to them? How could I tell them everything? Seeing them like this make me want keep it to myself even more. I would rather getting hurt them seeing their painful face.

"This is not the first time you're suspended. I told you I wouldn't let it go next time, didn't I? Now, you have to do as I say. I'll have you transfer to a new school. I give you a second chance so live there without troubles." My mom said. I nod my head. I quickly wiping my tears as I don't want them to see me like this.

"You going to let me live alone?" I ask hoping she would say yes. It's not like they can't afford a place for me to stay.

"Of course not. I have a friend there so you'll live with her." My smile fade as I hear what my mom said. This cant be happening.

"Mom! You know I don't like living with stranger."I whine.

"Sienna, you promised. That's the only way you can keep your promise. Beside, you're engaged with her son and that make you her family member." My mom said.

"Wait! What?! Since when?" My jaw drops as I heard what my mom just said. I couldn't believe my ear.

"Since ..." my mother pauses as she is trying to think. "I don't remember but it has been awhile." She finishes.

"Mom! I'm still a high schooler to get married." I continue whining so she would stop.

"Who say you're going to get married?" Wait come again? What did she say? I looked at her with a weird look and finally, she open her mouth.

"I have a talk with Jas and we both wouldn't want to force you two to get married. We just want you two to get to know each other. And of course you can get married after high school or after college if you two fall in love  and want to get married. You can call off engagement if you don't love him but not so soon. At least keep the engagement for six months." She explains. At least she is not going to force me to get married to someone I don't have feelings for.

'Six months? That's just a short of time. I can do this.' I thought.

"Fine. That's a great deal." I get up on the floor and go to my room. As I reach my room I collapse on my bed.

"Ouch! My knees hurt." I said as I sit up. I can see my knees are red. I flip down on my bed once again and just stare at the ceiling.

Flashback:

School backyard:

*slap*

"Bitch! Who do you think you are? You dare glare at me. I told you he's mine and you dare date him? Do you think he likes you? He didn't. He just used you to get at me."

"May, please stop slapping and kicking her. You've hurt her enough."

"What? She dated the one I love and you just tell me to spare her? Hell, no!"

"Listen to her. You should stop because I don't know what I'll do to you." I said agree with one of May friends.

"Hah.... you're too tiny. Your legs are short you can't win against me." She proudly said.

"Oh yeah.  You wanna see." I tried to get up even though I'm hurt. She did slap me hard.

"Come on. Come." She gesture her hand and so I slowly step my feet. As I am in front of her, no, I was actually below her, I looked up to her.

She left out a laugh.

"You're just a doll. You can't win." She said with a smirk.

I jumped and swing my right foot. I feel as if it a slow motion when my foot hit her head. She fell on the ground and groaned as she touch her head. She slowly get up and glare at me.

"How dare you hit me?"

"You wanna get hit again? I warned you, didn't I? You didn't listen." I said. And now it's my turn to smirk.

When she was about to come and slap me a voice was yell. We both stop and turn our heads. To my disappointment, it was one of our class teacher.

"You! You! Follow me!" She yells and gestures her hand for us to follow.

"Shit!" I quietly cursed.

Flashback End:

"Heh! I was only trying to defend myself. I did warned her though. How unfair that she's still going to school while I'm suspended."
