Just stories written while im on the toilet or in the restroom in general

"And that's a wrap! Liza beautiful work as always!" said the cameraman as he tossed a smart water towards Liza. Today's photoshoot was in downtown houston where she had to sponsor this new fashionable rock climbing gear, which were zebra print, as well as testing the items. 
For almost 2hrs straight they kept having her climb up and down on the indoor rock climbing wall as well as doing almost impossible poses such as leaning away from the wall and making impressions and expressions on looking out in the beyond, as if looking for a journey. 'More like a way out of here...' she thought to herself as she successfully caught the water bottle and started to slowly drink the cold liquids. Number one rule when dehydrated : Drink slowly no matter what or your stomach will get sick.
As Liza continued to drink her water she reach the buffet table and took a Gala apple and started to nibble on it when her phone went off. She quickly grabbed her iPhone and saw a video that her daughter posted. 'Must be another cheer video, I'll look at it before I leave.' and with that, Liza place her phone back on the table for a quick charge as she finish her apple. "Great work today!" said another cameraman as the others smile and nodded their heads in agreement. All Liza can do is smile and say her traditional thank yous and how it was fun etc.
Moments later, she received a text from the same anonymous number that lead her to a stupid whataburger last night. Only this time the message had a count down of 24hrs and words in all Capitol letters : 24 HOURS TO HAVE PACKAGE 2.0 READY.
●Lincolns POV●
"Please, can I just go to class?" I pleaded with Dr. Wolf for the 20th time. I woke up in the nurses office freezing to the bone. I felt like a miserable wet kitten, just wanting to get to a warm place and sleep until the world ends or something. 
Dr. Wolf, or her full name Stacia Luna Wolf, was a middle age woman, probably in her mid-30's. She had short black pixie hair with green ends that was spiked up in a very punk rock way. She had gauges in her ears as well as hoops in her earlobe and a industrial piercing in her ear. She had a nose piercing, and snake bite piercings on her lips. Dr. Wolf was really just a complete badass where she sported tattoo sleeves on both arms and even has this very vintage tattoo on her forehead, making it look like she was wearing some sort of tiara. Dr. Wolf had the same red skin and blood as Mr. B, for they are actual cousins.
"Lincoln, as much as you love your art class, I simply have to wait until I can get verdict from the principal to see what she will do." Dr. Wolf said as she started writing down a report of my injuries. I sighed as I wrap myself with the towel that Layla was sweet enough to leave me along with a heavy blanket to keep me warm as much as possible. 
I really just wanted to go to my art class cause it's my easiest and last class of the day after that I will at least get the weekend to spend time with my animals and my father. 
I am usually not a rebel student, scratch that my comments can get me in haywire of troubles, but other than that I'm perfectly fine! At least that's what I presume. Go to classes in time, keep to myself, answer when called upon, always get my homework and projects done either early or on time. And with me doing all this good, I always have shitty luck.
"Dr. Wolf....please....I don't want to be here, cause by knowing Mrs. Washington, she will bring the cheerleaders in and make them give me fake apologies."
"Ms. Washington, remember, she divorced Coach Washington about a month ago." Dr. Wolf smirk as she roll her chair from her desk to me and shove the glass thermometer in my mouth for the 2nd time. "Tell you what, cause you're my favorite teacher aid student and I know you had a shitty day. Let's do a win/win. if your temperature is normal I'll send you to Ms. Flower art class. If its above normal then before the cheerjerks come in, I'll escort you home." As soon as Dr. Wolf made that bargain my heart flutter, but pandora box open as soon as we heard the door open. Dr. Wolf gave me sad eyes and I swear I was in the brink of just twisting my neck when a southern voice filled the room. "Lincoln sweetheart, I bought you some clothes, I tried to find your taste but idk how I did." Layla, the goddess of friendship came in with the gray walmart bag with some clothes inside. Layla and I are complete opposites where she is sunshine and daisies and I'm like moonlight and death bells, but we do have alot of common. We both love art, books, poetry, animals, Harry Potter I could almost go on with the list but a sudden sneeze came out of my tiny nose where I almost jump off the bed.
"Well that's that, Lincoln Rosemary I'll have to send you home! and Layla, won't you be a dear and be sure she gets home safely. You two deserve a break. I'll write both of you some excuses about being absent and have the teachers email you the homework." Dr. Wolf said and took the glass thermometer out of my mouth. 
Layla smile and seeing her, shining with her pearly white teeth brought warmth to my soul. I got up and found my footing as I walk to Layla and thank her. I don't know how we starting to become friends to be honest. If I have to guess it was probably her barely coming to this school for almost 2 months now where no one wanted to talk to her and she found me in the lunch room eating crackers and hummus and she came up to me and stated: "I too know Hummus!" where we bark in laughter as we both recalled the Sausage party movie and everything else become history.
"I'll go ahead and grab your stuff Lincoln while you go ahead and get dressed. We can go to my house and I'll message mawmaw to make her New England Clam Chowdah" Layla said and bounce away out of the nurse's office.
"That girl is something else, a pure soul and spirit of gold." Dr. Wolf mumbled and smiled as she escorted me to the bathroom so I can change my clothes and daydream again about the book I want to write.
●Narrator POV●
Danika Suzette Washington was a 45 year old woman that look like she came straight from Ireland. She had very wild red curly hair that was untamed into a bun while few strands escape and cloak her heart shape face. She had thin red eyebrows and amazing emerald eyes like a cat that match her green pantsuit. She recently divorced her husband, ex husband Wilmar Wade Washington for committing adultry with the students in this school. And because they both support there twins in Texas State College, she let him keep his job so he can pay half of the Bill's. Ms. Washington was just in the middle of a dating website where her office was barge in with 1 disappointed coach, 1 handsome but very furious English teacher and 4 of the schools best cheerleaders. Ms. Washington exited the website in a jiffy before gossip can go out in this public school. She took the time to look at the 4 students and tried to put two and two together. Abby was the head cheerleader where she was suppose to graduate last year but flunk english. Tanisha, Dulce and Maria are like the 3 musketeers that are ruling their graduation year. As easy as 2 + 2, Ms. Washington scolded at the 4 girls. "What did y'all do to Lincoln Rosemary this time?" Ms. Washington said as she went back to the computer to pull up YouTube and see the trending videos, teenagers are so predictable. "Beat her silly and gave her multiple swirlys." Abby said as she glared at me and had her arms crossed and smirk.
Ms. Washington sighed and look at Abby, such a pretty girl with no one home upstairs, girls with her intelligence usually go living in the streets and do drugs, but she was fed with a diamond spoon where both her parents are pretty rich and very attractive people. "Right, let's make this quick. 2 weeks suspended, no games until next year, no prom for you Abby, and community service afterschool when yall are back from suspension. Dismissed. As for your Mr. Blue, can you bring Lincoln Rosemary in? She should be done with Dr. Wolf." Ms. Washington was about to dial the nurses office when a email pop up. Ms. Washington read the email and shrugged her shoulders and glanced at the coach. "Coach Armstrong, see that the girls are in SAC until I email and call their parents. One just email me and stated that she wanted her daughter to stay in school until further notice."
"Yes M'am."
"Right, carry on then, I got stuff to do."
"Are you serious Danika?" Ms. Washington jump when her name was shot out at like cold water. She glance up from her computer screen to see Dr. Blue looking like a volcano about to explode. "What seems to be the problem?"  she challenged him, 'He might be sexy and almost look like The Rock, but no one makes me look like a fool in front of students.' She thought to herself, waiting to see any smart remarks come from the wise native american.
"Lincoln Rosemary could've died in that bathroom. Those 4 girls could've been charge with murder! Especially her sister Abby! and you don't do anything! where is the justice with that?!"
"Look, it's just kids being kids. No harm, no foul. Lincoln Rosemary needs to suck it up and stand up for herself."
"How can you be this schools principal?! your ethics are as ridiculous as-as...." Mr. Blue was interrupted when Ms. Hoggs, the front office clerk, came in with a note and handed it to Ms. Washington, as she completely ignored the note and contuined to argue with Mr. Blue-Eagle.
●Lincoln's POV●
"Lincoln darling, are you almost ready?"
"In a minute Layla, I'm trying to hook up this bra, it might be a tad to tight."
"Aw sugar, I thought you were a 44C."
"Hahaha I wish I was at least a C, no I'm a 44DD."
"Goodness gracious girl! give me a couple of cups!"
"How about a bundle deal? 2 cups and some of my butt!"
"What kinda butt do you have for leftovers?"
"Enough to make Nikki Minaj, Kim K, and JLO jealous."
"Ohh I declare!"
I love conversations like these, even if it means shoving my boobs in a too tight bra and shoving my thighs into too tight Jean's. 
Other than the tight clothing that is convincing me to keep doing dog runs. She got my style down to the T. Dark navy blue Jean's, a AC/DC shirt, black panties and matching bra, black no nonsense socks with some black cutie boots and she even brought me a brush to pull my hair into a messy bun.
By the time I was done, Layla and I grab our things and headed out the school and started walking towards Laylas house.
I've only been there 3 times and those three times were awesome. Her mom, or mawmaw, always welcomes us with warm hugs and always had something cooking in the oven, they even invited me once for dinner, her mom, Ruby Marie Murphy, makes the best fried chicken with mash potatoes. I haven't got the chance to see her father and older brother. Johnathan Thomas Murphy Sr and Johnathan Benjamin Murphy Jr actually are currently serving this country where Sr is in the Green Beret and Jr is in the Navy Seals. Layla goal is to be in the Air force, despite her mothers wishes, you can only support the choices.
Layla does live pretty far from the school, but we didn't mind the walk, we overall enjoy each others company, gossiping about the stupid cheerleaders and which boys are the hottest and smartest and catching up on Netflix Stranger Things Season One for we both promise to only watch it together. What we didn't like, is a huge black van coming out of nowhere where we had the green light and the only thing I could think of is grabbing Layla and shoving her back to the safety of the sidewalk while i was too late to join her and flew as the impact hit me like Jeepers Creepers truck in the films. When I landed back on the pavement i could only see my blood flowing out of my head into the street making street art of my miserable bad luck.

Lincoln Rosemary, a bullied 16 year old girl gets in a horrid accident where it resulted with her receiving a divined blessing. With this new power, a source of mutual good and evil wishes to take possession of it.

Zhao Yu got more and more emotional, and the same went for Cui Lizhu. She quickly asked the rich man if he knew Cui Fangyu and Du Manting. However, the rich man just shook his head.
Zhao Yu then asked, "Have you heard about Tao Xiang stealing the gemstone from the exhibition?"
"Heck yeah. Of course. Who hasn't? It was all over the news a few days ago!" the rich man said excitedly. "To be honest, I personally asked Flying Squirrel Gao about that gemstone! What was it called? The something star? But, Flying Squirrel Gao said he didn't know anything about it!"
He then added, "Police officer, to be honest, people who like to collect things and who are not short on money like myself, we would all jump at the chance to buy that gemstone!" The rich man was beaming with joy as he spoke. "But, whoever has half a brain wouldn't actually take it! Regardless of how cheap the price was! After all, that gemstone is like a ticking time-bomb, whoever touches it would be the unlucky one! Don't worry, I definitely don't have it with me!"
He is telling the truth…
Zhao Yu thought to himself. After all, the reason why Tao Xiang stole the gemstone was because there was the Indian buyer! However, the Indian didn't get it, so the gemstone was most likely still in Tao Xiang's hands!
After all, he naturally couldn't give the gemstone away, as once the gemstone was exposed, he would be killed! Hence, the highest possibility was that it wasn't hidden in his treasure box, but now lay in the hands of his mysterious ally!
Yes! This can't wait any longer! We have to take immediate action and arrest Flying Squirrel Gao right now! Even if he wasn't the murderer of the Gem Theft Case and the Headless Female Corpses Case, he must know something!
However, Zhao Yu suddenly remembered that it was about time for his side quest for today. According to the coordinates he had received, the location of the side quest was quite far from where he currently was. If he didn't rush over now, he wouldn't be able to make it in time!
But, it was the crucial moment to arrest the suspect! He had no idea if it be grossly inappropriate for him to leave.
What should I do?
After thinking about it over and over again, Zhao Yu felt confident that Captain Sun could arrest the criminal, so he quickly left word with his teammates and Captain Sun that he had something important to take care of and urged them to arrest Flying Squirrel Gao as soon as possible!
Although it was somewhat inappropriate for Zhao Yu to leave right then, his teammates were used to Zhao Yu's coming and going as he freely desired, so they didn't raise any objections. Instead, left to do his bidding immediately after they had dealt with the rich man's family.
After he left, Zhao Yu drove the police car to the location of his side quest. Bai Ling was an ancient city that had very narrow roads, making it difficult to drive. It didn't help matters that this was the morning rush hour period! Luckily, Zhao Yu managed to reach the destination right on time.
Bai Ling High School?!
Seriously?
He never expected the side quest would be assigned to such a location at such a time.
What could happen in a school?
Zhao Yu parked the car and walked towards the location in a hurry. Bai Ling High School was a long-standing and very famous high school. The outer wall of the school had maintained its same vintage look from the seventies and eighties.
As Zhao Yu saw that the outer wall was low, he climbed over the wall. When he dropped down on the other side, there was no one around.
As the high school students were already in their classrooms studying, there was no one within the school courtyard either. Zhao Yu walked through the trees and garden, then arrived at an old building.
It's here!
Zhao Yu used the map to confirm that his destination was on the first floor of the building. He would arrive at the location after he walk through the building right in front of him.
When he got to the back of the building, he saw that there was no door at all! If he wanted to enter, he had to detour to the front of the building. Coincidently, Zhao Yu saw that there was a window open!
It was an anti-theft window, but as it had been worn down by years of disrepair, its few metal pillars had been broken, so a person could easily fit through it! The side quest happened to be near to the window, so if he were to go in from there, he would be able to reach it even quicker!
Zhao Yu took a look at his watch. There was only twenty seconds left until the miracle adventure took place! If he were to walk all the way to the front door to enter, he might not be able to reach it in time! In order for him to not miss the side quest, Zhao Yu didn't hesitate, but squeezed through the anti-theft window!
As he went through the window, he came into a run-down house with piles of junk everywhere. There were musical instruments and sports equipment, all of which were covered in dust.
Zhao Yu came to the end of the room and saw that there was a wooden door. The wooden door was slightly ajar, so Zhao Yu quickly walked through it!
It was connected to an extremely narrow walkway, which had houses on both sides of it. Within a few steps, he could hear water swishing. He lowered his head and saw that it the ceilings and walls were covered with muddy water stains.
Where the h*ll is this?
Zhao Yu looked at his watch and saw that it was time for assigned side quest.
Where's my miracle adventure?
Just as Zhao Yu was wondering this, a bunch of people appeared before him outside the corridor! When he lifted his head and saw them, he was stupefied on the spot!
Oh my motherf*cking God! What is going on?
It turns out that, at the end of the corridor, the cement room that Zhao Yu was looking at was a bathroom! The reason why he was so shocked was that it was obviously a female bathroom!
In fact, at that very moment, there were girls who were in bathing suits and some were even naked! They were all turning on the tap at the bathroom sink!
Seriously?
System bro, are you kidding me? I, Zhao Yu, am an upright and honorable man! How could you rain down curses on me with such a situation? What is going on?
Hey?
That's not right?
This is a school.
Besides, it's eight in the morning...
Why would there be so many female students taking a bathroom break?
This…
Just as Zhao Yu was filled with questions in his head, something even more ridiculous happened!
Ah… Hero, please stay back in my sweet dream…
As Zhao Yu's phone rang, his loud ringtone was heard across the entire bathroom. All the girls turned around and gawked at him, this being the first time they had seen him watching them!
Zhao Yu had no choice but to answer his phone. On the other side of the phone, Zeng Ke said in a hurry, "Team Leader, this is bad! We were going after the suspect, but Wu Fangfang sent a bunch of people here to capture Cui Lizhu!"
"What?" Zhao Yu heard this and got impatient. "How could you let that crazy woman take her away? Fight them, you useless piece of sh*t!"
"No. We can't! Team Leader, they had the higher ups from the Central Criminal Division with them, so we didn't dare stop them!"
Zhao Yu creased his eyebrows and wanted to scold him more, but when he lifted his eyes, he saw the girls staring at him.
"Mm. Hello!" Zhao Yu put the phone aside and said, "Excuse me, I believe I have entered the wrong house..."
Ahh!!
Ah. Ah!!!
Suddenly, the girls' screams were heard all across the school compound.


A little ruffian who fought recklessly without any morals and bottomline accidentally time-traveled to parallel space and became a Key Case Investigation Team agent. The huge change in identity had him creating chaos in the police station. However, a strange miracle system helped him repeatedly solve mysterious cases, turning him into an impudent ruffian detective!

Noah takes the painting and place it on the easel then he grab my hand and take a deep breath. 

"I don't know how to describe everything but I'll just show you, ok?" 

"Ok. . " 

He touch the canvas and step into the painting. That's something that I've never seen before. I hold his hand tightly and step into the painting. We stand inside a room with a single painting on the wall. I look around, everything looks real. I touch the wall and I can feel that it's a real wall, a solid wall then I try to jump several times to make sure the floor is not fake and it's real. I never knew that there's a dimension beyond a painting and this is my first time entering the space.  

"Where are we?" 

Noah is walking to the corner of the room and take the package that he threw then he walks back to me. 

"We are in the other side of the painting. This one is called the 'Qiophaire' dimension."

"Qioph- what?" 

"Qiophaire. It's the name of the dimension. If you look around, there is no door or window. It's just a room with a single painting on the wall." 

"Why?" 

"Because I create every details in the room. It was an empty space before but I have the power to make a new place inside the dimension." 

"And how do we get out from here?" 

"That painting on the wall is our way out." 

I walk closer to the painting on the wall and realize that it's a painting of the art room in the university. Everything doesn't make sense. It's not real. Maybe I'm still sleeping and I'm having a dream about going to a dimension through a portal and the portal is a painting on a canvas. It's time to back to reality so I close my eyes then I pinch my arms to wake me up.

"Wake up, Sera. Wake up." 

I open my eyes and I can see Noah standing in front of me, looking at me with a puzzled look. 

"What?" 

"It's real, Sera. You're not dreaming and you are 100% conscious." 

"No, no, no. You're joking. Maybe you're a fake too, I'm in my dream, everything is not real." 

Noah pulls my body closer to him and he lands a kiss on my lips. I push him away and step back immediately. 

"What was that for?" 

"I need to prove it to you that it's real."

There must be a scientific explanation about this then I will believe it. I walk to the painting and try to touch the canvas and nothing happens.

"Get me out of here." 

Noah throw the box away then he grabs my hand, touch the canvas and step out the painting with me. Once I'm back at the art room, I run out of the art room and rush to the women's bathroom. I wash my face and try to understand the reality. I take my phone and look for any information about dimension beyond a painting and there is only one website that explain about another dimension but it's not a dimension inside a painting. I try to calm down then I leave the bathroom. 


Noah sits on the floor and he stares at the painting. How can he be that stupid to reveal his ability? Now Sera knows about the dimension inside the painting and perhaps she will stay away from him and he can't protect her anymore. Besides he did something unexpected back in the dimension which is kissing her. It's not something that he would do to make someone believe him but he just did it. His body naturally did that and now he realize that there's something wrong with him. 

"Sera. . ." 

Noah takes the painting and he stand up then leave the art room with the painting on his hand. When walks down he spot Sera near the main door of building B and she's talking to a person with yellow hair. It's Benjamin. How can he knew that Sera is here? He immediately rush to the main door and push Benjamin away. 

"Noah!" 

Sera looks surprised. Noah brings Sera to his back and try to protect her. 

"What are you doing here?" 

"I explain about the dimension to Sera since she asked me about it." 

"You ask Ben about the dimension?" 

"I did, he said that he can explain everything and help me to understand." 

"He's a liar! Let's go, Sera." 

Noah takes Sera with him back to the dorm, leaving Benjamin behind. Noah knows everything about Ben, about everything that he has done in the past, about Candace and now he's going to do the same thing to Sera. He can't let that happen to this young girl. 

"Noah!" 

". . ." 

"Noah!" 

Noah turns around and he looks at Sera, she looks in pain, perhaps he hold her hand too tight. He let her hand go and look at her. 

"I'm sorry." 

"Why did you do that to him? I only ask for an explanation." 

"Sera, listen to me. He is a liar. I told you that he's a bad person remember?"

"Yes. . " 

"Do you remember about the note that you got when we had lunch at the chinese restaurant near the supermarket?" 

"Yes." 

"It was him. He gave you the note, he's trying to harm you, Sera. Just like what he did to Candace and I don't want you to experience the same thing as Candace did." 

"Candace? Who is that?" 

"I'll tell you later." 

He takes Sera with him to his dorm and ask Sera to sit. Noah walks to his bedroom and take out a book from his bookcase then he take a photo from the book then he give Sera the photo. It's a photo of a beautiful red haired girl, she looks younger than Sera, maybe she is 18 years old and in the photo, the girl is smiling brightly. 

"Who is she?" 

"It's Candace Roseschwarz. My ex-lover, my first love and Ben's victim."

Sera-21 years old trying to live a new life in a new place but who knows there'll be lots of things that change her life since she met a young man from aircraft that will give lots of impact in her life.

But everything will get darker and more mysterious. Will Sera and Noah be able to get over with every challenge and problem that they will face?

6:55 PM.

After they finished eating what Ethan cooked for them. Noah asked them what they want to drink. All of them wanted black tea but Farah was tired; she couldn't resist a big cup of coffee. She left them and went to the bathroom to wash up.

The bathroom was on the left side of the apartment. Farah walked a long hall to reach it at the end. She washed up her face and hands; she felt a sudden need to sleep. She put her hair on a high ponytail and went outside. She noticed that one of the doors of the other rooms was open. She wasn't a curious person, yet something caught her attention.

It was a huge painting of a beautiful woman in her early thirty; drawn in a detailed portrait that looked like a photograph from far. Farah didn't think for a second and went inside the room. It was Noah's office room. It was neat and enormous just like the rest of the apartment. The room had the same view of the harbor. On the right side was L shaped glass desk with a black colored stationary and a silver colored desktop computer. On the left side another L shaped glass desk with several work papers on it. On the right wall were two large sized painting, and on the left side was the portrait of the woman and different pictures hanging on the wall. Farah took a closer look at the painting and saw the painter sign on it. "Donggun…wow," Farah whispered to herself.

She moved two steps to see the rest of the pictures. It was a group of different pictures of Noah with his friends on different occasions. One picture caught her attention. It was Noah standing between his parents in graduation robe; the same woman in the portrait but little older, she looked pretty and elegant. Noah looked younger with shorter hair and a clean shaved face. Farah smiled, she found it heartwarming when any family took pictures together looking happy.

She looked at Noah's father, her smile faded slowly. She took a deep breath and her eyes were wide open in shock. She took one step back; she didn't understand what was happening to her. A vague sense of familiarity washed over her the moment her eyes came across Donggun's face.

She lost all sense of reality with an image pops up in front of her eyes; Farah looked around to find herself in a different room, it was a dark room with few candles lighting the place, she couldn't see anything clearly. For some reason, everything around her was moving in slow motion. She saw shadows of two people in the room fighting each other. She tried to move her body but couldn't, something was holding her tight. Numbers of bright blue strings were covering her body squeezing it hard. The strings were increasing and moving upwards, it reached her neck choking her.

She wanted to scream hard but couldn't. She looked again at the two shadows terrified, one of them came close to her. It was Donggun, he looked younger with a messy medium length hair that was covering the sides of his face and he was wearing white linen Shendyt and tunic covered with blood running out of his nose. She looked at his anguished face and terrified eyes. He was screaming in a language she didn't know but she understood every single word he said. Donggun hugged Farah then the ground started to vibrate hard.

"Farah!" Noah said loudly, nudging her left shoulder with his right hand.

"Yes!" Farah looked at him and took one step backward losing her balance for a second.

"Are you okay?" Noah asked and gave her a worried glance.

"Yeah," Farah said and looked around and saw that she was in Noah's room.

"Are you sure? you were like frozen," Noah said, walking outside the room.

"Yeah, I'm okay, I was just…" she looked again at the graduation picture. "Thinking."

"Hey, you're coming?" Noah looked back at her. She nodded and followed him outside.

**

Farah yawned.

"I can't stay any longer my eyes are closing by itself," Farah said and yawned again. She wasn't the only one keeping a secret; Noah never told her that the conversation she had with Malika on the other side of his apartment wasn't a whisper one. The apartment's walls are thin and he heard everything.

"Okay weirdo, later," Noah said and chuckled.

Farah ended the call remembering how every time they talk; he always called her weirdo. Their friendship was a strange one that happened by accident two years ago. The only thing she vividly remembered was the day they met. They kept in touch all the time despite being on different continents. They were very comfortable around each other as if they were friends for decades. None of them could explain how they became that close or even how they kept their friendship strong.

**

Two years earlier.

June 7, 2007.

As the summer was about to start Malika was doing everything in her power to make their summer destination a surprise for Farah. Malika knew that Farah wouldn't come if she knew who was going to join them. It was one week away from their flight date, as usual, Farah was in her office. She was working more hours to cover one month without being involved in any work; having the whole three months of summer out of the country wasn't a full vacation for her, she would eventually work wherever she was. Farah was having an intense conversation with a client while her phone ranged, it was Malika, and she answered her after finishing her call.

"Good morning bae."

"Get yourself a boyfriend and stop calling me that!"

"You're cranky."

"I want to murder someone," Farah said and covered her eyes with her left hand.

"You usually say that at the end of the day, What happened?"

"That idiot client I truly want to slap his face, he kept nagging and he didn't like anything, I changed the design for the third time and he keeps asking for more changes."

"That's normal not everyone has the same taste."

"I'm not designing a dress! I'm an architect, there are rules that I must follow! He wants unrealistic things that need a lot to build and obviously a lot more money that he's not willing to spend."

An email notification sound in the background. "Farah, I just got the email from the hotel, everything is set up."

"Where are we going?" Farah's voice was loud and far, she was walking in her office collecting work papers from different drawers.

"It's a surprise! But I will tell you this; two of my friends are coming and it will be a lot of fun." Farah tried again to know where they would spend the summer, but Malika refused every time.

"I'll go to Dubai tomorrow, see you at the airport." Farah ended the call and continued her work. She was heading to Dubai for several meetings, her family had offices there for their projects in Asia.

June 14, 2007.

Malika went to DXB airport before Farah; she was at her office signing some papers. She texted her multiple times and finally got an answer after a while with Farah telling her that she was on her way to the airport. It took her forty minutes to get there; she was excited to know which country Malika chose that year, but what she saw made her realize it won't be a good trip. Malika was standing next to two men; they looked like hard working nerds. Each one of them was obsessed with history, ancient civilization and folklore and they were always loud and talking nonstop. Farah dragged Malika away without looking at them. "You have got to be kidding me!" Farah said with a low angry voice after they were safely away from her friends.

"Don't get mad please."

"Why! You have many friends that are actually fun to be around! why this duo?"

"It happened by accident I swear," Malika said and cringed. "I was talking randomly, and they just hopped in and I didn't know what to say."

"So, you said yes! Just… three months Malika! Come on!"

"I'm sorry; you know they are nice you'll love them."

"That's the problem! They are too nice! Both are weird to be around, and you know I don't like them." Farah took a deep breath and continued. "They talk a lot I can't stand them!"

"Please, Farah! I will make it up to you I swear." Malika held Farah's hand begging her to be good to them and reminded her that they wouldn't ruin anything. Farah kept herself calm and went to them to say hello. Malika gave Farah her ticket; they were going to Seoul, South Korea.

Malika and her friends talked about every place they wanted to see; it was all about the ancient parts of the country. Farah was getting bored even before going on the airplane. It was eight hours flight; the first two hours Malika and her friends were discussing nonstop how the Korean mythology was separated but still influenced by the Chinese and Japanese mythologies. Farah was drawing the first three hours of the flight. She drew blue lotus covered in blood. One of the cabin crew noticed it while she was serving her cup of tea.

"Wow, it looks so real, you're very talented."

"Thank you." Farah took the cup and start drinking. Malika was next to her talking to her friends in the next raw and Farah was sitting next to the window. Malika finally noticed what Farah was doing.

"Why?" Malika asked with a curious look.

"Bored and can't sleep."

"Lotus covered in blood?"

"I saw it inside my head; it felt like a memory… Maybe I saw it in a movie or something."

"Interesting…" Malika smiled at her and continue her conversation.

Farah closed the drawing sketch then put her black colored earphones on and played her favorite oriental music. She rested her head and looked at the cloud through the airplane window. Her eyes felt heavier and heavier; she didn't fight her urge for closing them, she felt a massive tug taking all her energy and slowing she fell into a deep calm sleep.

Two hours later.

A beautiful woman standing in the middle of a massive room filled with candles lighting hanging on the walls that gave the room a sense of intimacy. The whole room had inscriptions in rhythm and loads of hieroglyphs all over the walls, ceiling, and the ground. An aisle on the middle of the room; on both sides were peaceful lakes that somehow appeared connected despite the ground aisle between them.

The lakes were crystal clear with an image of a woman standing in the middle of the room; She had a willowy figure and long black wavy hair. She was wearing white tight fitting sheath dress. At the end of the aisle was two squared boxes flying in the air. The woman started to walk; hundreds of blue lotuses floated on the surface of the two lakes. A sudden rich earthy floral aromatic scent evoked narcotic warm misty atmosphere.

A soft fading female voice called the woman's name. She looked at the direction of the voice, she felt a sudden cold wind coming from behind the two boxes. She got closer and stood in front of the flying boxes. The boxes moved away revealing a dark hall behind it. The same voice called her again this time was clearer, and louder. Black glowing wisps came out of the hall reaching the woman's body within seconds it completely covered her and tugged her into the dark hall. Everything went into darkness with no sound but the woman's terrified screams.

Strong turbulence.

 Farah opened her eyes terrified, Malika looked at her and held her hand to calm her down. "It's okay, it's just a bump." Malika tapped on Farah's hand.

"I…. What…" Farah's voice was quivering. "It…hurts!" Farah touched her neck, she felt unreasonable pain in her throat.

"Are you okay? Your voice? wait I will get you something warm to drink to soften your cords." Malika told one of the cabin crew to get her tea with herbs. Meanwhile, Farah looked at the window terrified.

June 22, 2007.

Malika and her friends wanted to go to the oldest cafe shop in Seoul called Hakrim. A vintage looking cafe that every part in it had loads of stories. Farah didn't care much about how old the cafe was; she only wanted coffee. Malika was sitting with two of her high school friends who lived in Seoul for three years; she was existed to practice some Korean words with them. Farah wasn't enjoying the vacation from the beginning; Lena called her after they checked in the hotel; telling her about a new project. She had the drawing sketch with her and she started working while they were at the cafe.

Malika was busy with her friends she didn't notice Farah at all. Farah already ordered two cups of coffee, yet she felt uninspired and bored. She went outside the cafe to breathe some fresh air; the weather was great and refreshing. She took her sketch and sat on the ground outside, she was desperate to start drawing anything; she had to finish three different designs in two weeks, despite being the head of the department, she had to do it herself.  

Across the road was a man in his mid twenties standing in front of a bookstore talking on the phone; he was a handsome man, yet his watch was the only thing that caught Farah's attention. Without thinking she started to draw his muscled left arm wearing the watch. She wasn't listening to anything but the music from her earphones. She fixed her eyes on him; he noticed her drawing by accident and after he finished his call, he crossed the road and stood in front of her. Farah wasn't paying attention; she was heavily drawing his muscled arm in incredibly realistic details.

"Wow." Farah didn't respond. She kept drawing, he squatted down to reach her eyes. Farah startled and took off her earphones. "Hey there." he had a husky deep voice with an Australian accent.

"Hi!" Farah was a little confused.

"I noticed your eyes were fixed on me, so I had to come and say hello." his smile was charming; a smile of a confident man.

"Right! Your watch caught my attention." Farah smiled, and her deep dimples appeared.

"Are you an artist?" Farah shook her head no. "You should be, you're really good."

"Are you interested in that type of art?"

"No, but my father is a master in drawing people, I grew up watching him drew the whole time."

Both stood up, Farah closed her sketch and took a deep look at the man. "So, you must know how to draw."

"No, I am awful at it, I'm Noah by the way."

"Farah." they shook hands.

They went inside the cafe and kept talking. They took another table and sat with each other for thirty minutes, Malika noticed that Farah disappeared, she texted her. Malika looked behind her after Farah texted back then went to their table.

"This is my cousin Malika," Farah said and pointed at Malika who took the chair next to her to sit.

"Hello, I'm Noah."

Farah told Malika what happened earlier. "Again!" Malika said and chuckled.

"She did it before?"

"Every time we travel, she draws someone randomly."

"That makes you a complete weirdo," Noah said and smiled at Farah. She smiled back and told the waiter to get them three cups of coffee.

"Noah, are you full Korean? You look mixed," Malika said suddenly.

"Great question, not racist at all," Farah said sarcastically that made Noah laugh.

"I swear I didn't mean to sound racist, I'm just curious about genetics and cultures," Malika said in a lower tone, raising her hands apologetically to him.

"No worries, my father is Korean, and my mother is Australian of English and Irish descent," Noah said smiling.

"Interesting!" Malika said with a bug eyed look. Farah smirked.

"You're not a fan of genetics?" Noah asked Farah.

"I don't see her point of being obsessed with it; I bet you she's already imagining how your DNA looks like."

Malika hit Farah's shoulder causing her to groan in pain. Malika's punches were strong and quick. Noah laughed from their small interaction and from that one round of coffee, these three spend the whole three months of summer together.

**

4:00 AM.

Farah was breathing heavily; her pajamas were soaked in sweat. She suddenly opened her eyes like two flashlight beams, in the darkness of the room she jumped out of the bed and ran to the bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror in horror. She put her hands on her neck there were hand marks as if someone was choking her. The whole place was dead silence only the sound of her loud breathing.

The room was filled with warmth, and the dim yellow light made the vintage layout of the room look refined and simple.
Si Yiyan stood by the window, clad in grayish silver pajamas. He stared at the Chinese roses outside the window, which had already climbed up the wall and were boasting of life and lush greenery. The Chinese roses were blooming beautifully and vibrantly on the luscious emerald vines. 
On that night, he had gotten intimate with Wen Xinya, during which he chanced upon the sight of the vibrant flowers outside the window. At the instant that he noticed the bright hues, he got a great shock. Throughout the rest of the night… he could see the cluster of Chinese roses in his blurry vision, and they seemed to be swaying beautifully and sultrily in his field of vision.
Chinese roses bloomed all year round, all four seasons and never withered!
Later on… he moved another cluster of Chinese roses to a spot beneath the windows! 
That cluster of Chinese roses planted their roots in that new spot.
Si Yiyan swirled the glass of champagne in his hand gently and allowed the sweet, exquisite scent of the liquor to fill the air in the room. He cocked his head towards the side and took a look at Wen Xinya, who was popping her head out of the door that she was hiding behind. He grinned widely.
Wen Xinya stood behind the door bashfully and stole a glance at Si Yiyan, who was admiring the beautiful Chinese roses. Realizing that he had already showered and changed into his pajamas while waiting for her, she instantly turned red with shyness.
She then gazed at the clothes on the bed pitifully, which were too far away from her. It seemed it would be impossible for her to grab them stealthily!
She could not help but pound her head. What was I thinking!?! I actually forgot to take my clothes with me into the bathroom. Am I supposed to wrap myself in a towel and send myself to Si Yiyan?
No! No! That's such a lack of moral principles!
But… am I supposed to grab my clothes while naked? 
Ah… it's too embarrassing!
Wen Xinya was stuck in an endless dilemma. Women would often be wishy-washy when it came to relationships, even when sex had become an everyday thing.
Wen Xinya continuously chided herself for having a lack of willpower. She gave in to temptation just because Si Yiyan flirted with her during the Ai Shang product launch… 
As soon as she finished getting busy, she sent herself straight into the lion's den.
Although Si Yiyan did not say anything, she exclaimed sheepishly, "I'm going to take a shower!"
She then scurried into the bathroom and wondered why she was so flustered and anxious.
It was as if she was desperate and eager!
Ah! All of her dominance was gone just like that!
Wen Xinya felt like she was being too whiny. 
Just as Wen Xinya was feeling conflicted and planning to wrap herself in a towel and walk towards Si Yiyan, Si Yiyan walked towards her smilingly and asked, "Since you're done showering, why are you still loitering around the bathroom?"
He grinned widely and stared at the pretty nightgown on the bed, that was much more beautiful than peach blossoms in spring.
"Who said I was done?" Wen Xinya snapped back at him without hesitation.
Just as she was about to close the door, Si Yiyan casually placed his hand in between the crack to stop her from closing it. "The flowers are in bloom and the moon is shining brightly. If you keep wasting time, aren't you going to miss the beautiful sight?"
Upon hearing his words, Wen Xinya felt a strong urge to castigate him! 
She rolled her eyes and said, "I suddenly feel a little parched. I want to drink some hot chocolate."
She wanted to distract him and get him to go away. Si Yiyan smirked and stared at her. "How thoughtful of you, milady. Hot chocolate helps to boost one's energy and it gives you stamina."
Wen Xinya understood just what he was trying to hint at. She turned red and retorted. "What nonsense are you spouting? That's not what I meant. I just… suddenly feel like drinking your hot chocolate. Are you going to make some for me or not?"
Oh dear, must you be so defensive!?!
Si Yiyan smiled and said, "Of course I'll fulfill your wishes, milady. I've already prepared a pot of hot chocolate long ago. I'm waiting to serve you."
She often complained about being hungry when they were getting intimate. Hence, he had already made preparations long ago.
Wen Xinya was dumbfounded.
Si Yiyan asked solemnly, "Milady, how long more are you going to stay in there?"
Wen Xinya stared at the smirk on his face and said with pouted lips, "Si Yiyan, bring me my pajamas. I forgot to take them with me when I took a shower."
This devil must be teasing me because he knows I'm shy!
Si Yiyan chuckled and teased. "Don't put on any clothes, then. Anyway, you'll have to take them off again. That'd be such a waste of time. Like I said… time is precious."
Wen Xinya craned her neck and rebuked. "Lecher! All you have are perverted thoughts. All you think about is stripping women naked."
Si Yiyan murmured, "You…"
Wen Xinya interrupted fiercely. "Don't you spout any nonsense. I was just feeling warm and sweaty after a long and busy day. I felt uncomfortable, so I wanted to take a shower as soon as possible!"
Dear, you've just exposed what you were trying to hide!
Dear, isn't it a little too late to explain yourself now?
Wen Xinya realized the way she was behaving and immediately turned red and hot. She barked. "Hey, are you going to help me get my clothes or not!"
If he dares to defy me, I'll punish him by making him have a one-week dry spell!
I'll keep to my word!
Suppressing his laughter, Si Yiyan decided not to tease her any further. "Yes, Milady!"
Si Yiyan turned around and walked towards the bed to grab the sexy piece of nightgown before handing it to her.
Wen Xinya shot him a glance and grabbed it before slamming the door shut and locking it from inside.
Si Yiyan burst into laughter!
After a while, Wen Xinya screamed. "Ah! Why is this the design!?! I don't usually wear pajamas like this! Si Yiyan… come here and explain yourself."
Si Yiyan smiled and said, "I didn't notice it. I just grabbed one casually."
After their intimate encounters, Si Yiyan began trying to spice up their sex life and bring himself more visual benefits. Hence, he decided to tempt himself with some sexy pajamas.
Shall I try a lingerie fetish next time? 
Si Yiyan began to plan and think about the feasibility.
Wen Xinya rebuked. "Si Yiyan, stop trying to play dumb. I'm just… not suited for this style. How did this piece of nightgown end up in my room?"
It's just like that mysterious set of uniform! It appeared in my room without my knowledge. This rascal has already shown his perverted side!
Si Yiyan answered calmly, "I prepared it for you, of course."
Dear, aren't you being too self-righteous!?!
Fuming with anger, Wen Xinya was at a loss for words.

De'Noctis Institute: School for Special Arts, Harvendash City

"You can go back to your position, Art" 

Chun dismissed his butler then walk to the golden gate of the school.
The outside of the school was very elegant and regal, it has that mighty atmosphere that any commoner would shy away on admitting themselves on this institute but no matter what, if you don't have a high IQ or high EQ, you're not qualified here though only nobles and elite households enrolled their sons or daughters, heirs or heiress. It is said that this school was established by a mysterious personnel from the kingdom of Teitan City which is the capital of TwinCity continent.

The young man with his silvery short white hair was slightly brushed by the wind, he was wearing his white robe with blue silver linings and on his right hand was a small bag of cookies. His robe was fluttering through the windy breeze giving him a fairy-like charm.

Chun was suddenly stop by a woman, she's wearing a sexy red robe with orange intricates and a bit of roses on her sleeves, her 'front' must be really big if not for her robe blocking the view. She had a katana on her side and a band on her left-arm stating 'Red Guard H'. She is really like a sexy demoness with her orange eyes with a bit yellow on it, fair skin with her full lips, straight nose that was slight pointed and her ink black hair that was braided. She looks on her 20's.

"Young man, your pass" the red guard lady said monotonely while giving Chun a once over.

The white haired youth steadily look at the woman from top to bottom before calmly handing his pass.

The red guard lady then scanned it on her ring scanner.

"Chun Shuho, T1- new recruit" a female voice from the ring spoke. The red guard lady suddenly smiled at Chun, giving the latter a strange feeling.

"Welcome, Chun! I'm Sisi, the head guard of red security. I'll lead you to the Assistant Head's office"

Chun just followed the cheerful Sisi on the way to the said office while eating his cookies.

"Art, I felt that something bad is going to happen"

"I'll protect you no matter what, young lord"

The youth just sighed.

"Red Guard 1! Guard the post!" Sisi stated fiercely then instanly a teenage boy appeared with a red uniform, his inner shirt was white while his coat was red and on the left-arm sleeve was the same band of Sisi but printed on it is 'Red Guard 1'

"Yes, Senpai!"

Sisi was really good at mood shifting. Earlier she was cheerful and suddenly went to fierce that Chun really doesn't mind because his busy on munching some treats.

The way to the Assistant Head's office was quite okay and silent nor a soul on the hallway, the students at this time was on their third session of their class and it is strictly prohibited to stroll around on the corridor while class is ongoing.

The interior structure of the school was really well-designed, the intricates, the materials that was used and the theme of each building brings animosity but it was exuded a regal ambiance. Each building Chun passed by had their on designs, like the first building he moved by had a silver diamond on it and when hit by the sunlight, it was glittering like a star. But the very building that caught his attention was a vintage-like building with a golden letter A on the front. To sum it all, all the buildings are weird.

"Here we are, Sensei Chun!" Sisi cheered and went away immediately before Chun could ask about the sensei term. He was clueless to that word.

The white haired young man stared at the brown wooden double doors, it was really big, it looks like the headmaster's office if not for that it's just the assistant head's office. 

What would the headmaster's office look like? Chun thought with curiosity while gazing at the double doors.

"Come in"

Chun was snap back from his reverie when an unfamiliar male voice said inside the double doors.

The youth then went inside when the door opened by itself.

"You must be Chun Shuho? Sit down, please"

The black haired man on his 30's spoke. He was wearing his teacher-like uniform but he is not a teacher.

"I'm Hai Chen, just call me Assistant Hai"

Chun just nodded, he was occupied on observing the office. It was designed in a modern way, the floor was ruby tiled, the wall was bricks and the office has a fireplace.

Assistant Hai was feeling awkward on the atmosphere when he felt that the youth was only staring at the surrounding not paying attention to him.

"Ehem *cough"

Chun gaze at Assistant Hai," Assistant Hai, what are my schedules? And which section I'm in?"

"Oho! You're excited on your first day? Oho-ho-ho" the Assistant head suddenly laughed creepily. Chun was left confused to the Assistant Hai's action. 

Is he a weirdo?

"Hohoho... Your students can wait. Here's your schedule and key pass" 

The creepy assistant handed a chip and a black card to Chun. 

"Ah your map! Find your own way. I'm busy to guide you, sorry" the assistant then pushed Chun out of his office.

The white haired youth was oblivious what was about to happen on him. While Assistant Hai just brushed off his hands," Hooo! Job done"

Chun shrug and look on the map while inserting the chip on his grostecho gadget. He opened it and saw his schedule. 

What is this?

Chun frowned on the screen display. Why is him a teacher? He thought that he was merely going to attend the school as a student?

The youth just then massage his aching temple for this new headache.

Might as well accept it. I'm qualified to be a teacher though.

Chun then proceed on his own assigned room. He's gonna sleep this off.
