I heard a series of knocks from the outside of my room so I immediately adjusted my uniform and checked myself and looked at the mirror before opening it.
And my suspicion is correct, it's Saint. I looked at him with my bored eyes.
"Listen Klea, you won't use your name the whole school year if you still want to be alive. Don't call me Saint, Angelous or even my surname in public. Do you understand?" He said with authority. I am really afraid of him. Even when we were young he was never kind to me.
I know I was just a hindrance to his life but he could do nothing because his Daddy told him to do it.
"This will be you new name. New identity to be exact." He said again and gave me an ID. I accepted that.
Danica Sy? That's a nice name. "Don't you ever talk to anyone about our relationship, just say we are childhood friends. Got that?"
I nodded. "Don't make friends. Tell me who introduces you. I am not being hilarious to you or what I am just protecting you, got that?"
I had nothing more to say to him so I just nodded. "Use a mask when you go outside."
That was his last reminder before he left in front of me. Today is my first day in school. All my life I've been homeschooled for safety purposes.
Many people hunt me down for killing my own father, I just killed the most high person in the underworld organization and they are hunting me to shut me down. And to make me the heiress of that organization.
But Grandpa Santino won't agree with it, Saint's father. Grandpa Santi is my Dad's friend. And Dad told Grandpa Santi that he would never give me up to the Mafia bosses. And he agreed even though he was among them.
Granpa Santi guaranteed everything's going to be alright. That I'll have a normal life just what my Daddy wanted.
"Klea! We're getting late. Hurry up!"
I grabbed my things and immediately followed Saint who was waiting for me and leaned on his car.
He's not going to use his Porsche? And he's going to settle at a low quality car? An Chevrolet.
"Just to keep you safe, we need to lay down at school. We can't be a show off to everybody. Everyone will suspect." I nodded and entered the shotgun seat.
He started the engine and maneuvered to the school.
While in the car I can't help but think that maybe it's not bad if I have a friend right? Saint will have friends too right? He's a catch.
He is handsome. Clever. Talented. I think he can do it all and it is unlikely that he will have many friends here.
"If you're thinking about having friends. No." I immediately looked at Saint because he suddenly spoke.
He adjusted the eyepatch he was wearing and looked at me with his brown eyes.
"Don't call me by my name. I have new identity too, I'm Rozen Alcantara from now on. Do you get it?" He asked and I nodded.
I got out of his car first and I went inside the school first. Many are staring at me now, because I am a new student.
'I heard she came from a Chinese family ..'
'She's white ...'
'Nice. Dude, perfect for a girlfriend. '
I heard the whispers of the people around me. But it also stopped immediately for reasons I do not know.
I looked at the gate and I could clearly see Saint simply walking looking at me. He motioned for me to walk so I did immediately.
A few hours passed and I was very grateful that no one tried to come and talk to me.
It's lunch time and I don't know where I'm going. So after I bought food I just went straight to the classroom and ate there.
But I was shocked when suddenly someone entered our classroom and I looked at him. It's my seatmate, he's sitting behind me.
What is his name again? Ah! Yeah, his name is Psalm .
"Hi Danica, why are you eating alone?" He suddenly asked me and smiled as he walked closer to me.
What Saint said suddenly came to my mind. 'No making friends.' But he's not here, isn't he? Maybe it's okay
"Ah, I don't know anyone here ..." I replied shyly, this is the first time I talked to someone outside Saint's mansion.
"Well, I'm Psalm Axel Sudalga. And you are Danica Sy, now you know someone." He said with a smile.
This guy has a bright aura, i can tell. He's curly hair and bright round eyes tells that he's a bright and jolly person. I love meeting this kind of people.
All my life I've been surrounded by negativity.
"Ah, thanks for talking to me. I appreciate it." I said smiling
He nodded at me and smiled again. He's cute.
I was surprised when he suddenly took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the edge of my lip.
"Sorry, it just that, there is ketchup on your face." He said with a smile.
I just shook my head and continued eating.
Atleast I made a friend today.
