“Get out! I don’t need you!” Damn this life. Every time I close my eyes. I remember everything. What did I do wrong for me to be incapable in doing this job? Now I don’t have my house, my car, my everything. I just have 20,000 bucks, which is my last payment. And 100,000 bucks in my bank. Now, where would I rest? I don’t know this place.
At last I found an apartment. It will only cost me 100 bucks each night. So it’s a good place. I checked in. And there I fell asleep. And here comes a new day.
By the way, I’m Mignonette Johannssen Reynaldo. In show business world, I’m Moniah. I’m very famous. But because of one mistake… they took every thing away from me.
Now, I’m living the simple life not of Mignonette Johannssen Reynaldo, not of Moniah, but of just being Mia. The ordinary life of being Mia—I mean VERY ORDINARY. I will get up in the morning, deliver news papers. Then go to College [I forgot to mention, I am back into schooling. Since I’m only 16 years old] and after that, I’ll buy food for me. And go back to my apartment and eat supper, do my assignments, and etc.
Well, I can say, I am happy in my status right now. It’s very amusing to see Mignonette Johannssen Reynaldo living in an apartment and living the ordinary life, don’t you think? Seeing one lucky girl, living there is like—whoa!
But anything can happen. Even the ones you didn’t expect to be happening. And the ones you are afraid of happening.
But in spite of the sadness that Mia experienced, she forced herself to be happy and move on. Because she believes in the saying “When there’s life, there’s always a chance” and “another day, another chance.” I guess Mia is a stronger girl now.
“Hey! Watch where you’re going, MORON!”
“I’m sorry.” What’s going on with me? My eyes feel like burning, my body’s sweating, is this from too much working? I feel dizzy...
“Whoa!” I heard many shouting... then my whole world turns black.

STAR - Chapter 2: The Boy
As I open my eyes, I see the upper view of a familiar room. And finally I came to my senses. And I figured out this was the clinic. Then I see a boy, he must be sick too… Then he woke up.
“Who are you?” I did not hesitate to ask him.
“And who are you too?” one bastard, I say.
“Fine. I’ll say my name first. I’m Mia”
“Oh yah. I’m Rei.”
“Nice meeting you, Rei. By the way, why are you here? Are you sick too?”
“Ha-ha. No. I’m the one who carried you. You fainted. You must be exhausted.”
“Oh. I see. Thank you.”
“Thank you is not enough.”
“What?! You’re demanding. Fine. What will I do to repay you?”
“Hmm...Since you’re so heavy. But you cause my muscle to be bigger.”
“…A kiss”
“Maniac! What are you? Lucky? NO WAY!”
“Fine. Then I’ll let the school know that you are Moniah, the hot actress-slash-singer.”
“SO? I don’t care! Care bears!” Giving him a punch in the stomach. And I stormed out of the clinic.
Whew! Thank god there’s only one thing left to do. EAT SUPPER!!
As I eat my first spoon of ramen, someone knocks at my door. Wonder who is it?
“Meit, camheen” I say between chews of the noodles.
I went and opened the door.
“HEY!! What are you eating? Can I have some?” BLOODY BASTARD! It’s Rei!
“What are you doing here?! Do you want another punch?”
“What? Can you that to this beautiful body?”
“Ah! You think you’re so hot? Take this!” giving him double punch in his abdomen, making him step out of my apartment.
I can’t finish my noodles because of him! Gosh! I’m pressured. I need ice cream! So I went down stairs. In the cafeteria, where I saw Rei again. Sleeping. There lies his G-tech 0.04 Pilot ball pen, his notepad that has “I LOVE MINNY” written all over it, his Bench cologne and his I.D.
So I see. His true name is Reinohan Jignaldo Minosson. What a name! Ha-ha. Oh. I should not let him see me near him. So, I act like I was buying something in the cafeteria. But it’s true. I will really buy something, my ice cream. Then here comes the devil.
“Hey, Mia. Miss me?” he said, wrapping his arm around my shoulder.
“No. Moron. Why would I miss you?” I answered to him with disgust as I push away his arm.
“Because I’m your type.”
“EXCUSE ME. You’re not my type.” stabbing him with my pointy number 2 pencil and making him step away.
“You don’t have to deny it!” he shouted. Then flirted with the sales lady.
I got back at my apartment. And take a look at my assignments. All done. Then I rested my eyes, and finally fell asleep.

STAR - Chapter 3: The call
So, I have only one class today. That is, Japanese Literature with Prof. Yamamoto. I’m so pissed. And he pissed me more. He gave us an assignment where we would create a story using Japanese language. What the heck?!.
I came back to my apartment. And found Uncle Sy reading today’s newspaper.
“Uncle, do you know someone who can tutor me ?”
“In what subject, my child?”
“That stupid Japanese language.”
“Lucky. I know someone.”
“Really? Who?”
“Reinohan.”
“What? Ok. No thanks.”
Then I got back at my apartment. I open my window. And start studying the book my friend gave me.
“o-hay-oo go-gozaimas-u” damn, this is hard, I tell you.
“o-geen-ki des-u k-aa?” this is even getting harder.
I say so many words. And practicing them. So later, I can write my assignment. Why in the world are we required to study Japanese? Oh my god.
So, I went to bed without eating anything. Because of so much studying of Japanese language. Before I go to school, I stop by 7-11 to buy some breakfast. And after that, I went to school.
So Calculus is my first subject. Well, I managed to follow the lessons.
Then next is the English literature, which was easy. Since I was already good in words. And I ran towards the cafeteria to buy coffee. Because my eyes are already falling. Not noticing that I left my bag. So I went to the classroom again. Thank God my bag is still there. And under my bag, there’s a note.
It says: “hey moron! You left your bag. Ha-ha. Good for you. : p” that stupid boy.
He’s really good in making me feel annoyed. I’m on my way home… when my cell phone suddenly rings. The number is not registered. I missed the call. Who can it be? Rei? No way. It’s not Rei. Oh I should stop thinking about this.
And I reached my apartment. Cook some ramen. Then opened my Japanese tutorial book. I’m still trying to understand it. Really. Then my phone rings again. Now, I didn’t miss it.
“hello?”
“who’s this?”
“where did you get my number?”
I blabber before he could open his mouth and talk.

STAR - Chapter 5: Old Pathway
To my Rose,
Read page 44-45 of your Japanese text book.
This will be today’s lesson.
Good luck for the short quiz.
Take care.
-Jack
Awe… It is inspired by titanic. I love that movie too. I got off to go to school. Then I see a letter again, it says:
My Rose,
You look beautiful today.
As beautiful as a rose.
Hope you can feel what I feel for you.
-love Jack.
This is getting farther. I should see him. Maybe he is the one. The one I am looking for.
My first class ended so fast. And now, Japanese Literature. With what my stalker sent to me, Jap. Lit. Became so easy now. I can understand the topics well. Oh thank you for what you have done Stalker!
“Hey you! Yeah you!” the beast has spoken.
“Whaaat dooo youu wanntt??” I said quite loudly.
“MADE YOU LOOK. MADE YOU LOOK!!” what a moron.
“Do you want some coffee? I’ll treat you!”
“No thanks. It may have poison.” Not considering the looks on his eyes.
God. Did I make the beast angry? Why is he acting like this? He did not attend the next class. Did the beast like the beauty? Oh my… This is not what I have expected.
As I walk through the old pathway, I sensed that someone was following me. I’m scared. So I ran away. Faster and faster. And he is still following me!
Oh my god. I don’t know what to do!! I ran as fast as I could. Then suddenly,
“Wait, Rose!” he said.
"why did he call me Rose?" Wait a second, He is my stalker!!
“Hey, Mia…at last! I got your attention. I’ve been following you these last few days.”
“…and im sorry for that.”
I didn’t answer. So he starts the conversation again.
“Oh by the way, I’m Raighne Railey Monteza. Proud to be your stalker. I mean, suitor. If you would allow me.”
“So, Miss Mignonette Johannssen Reynaldo, would you allow, Mr. Raighne Railey Monteza, to be your suitor?” giving me a cute smiling face.
“I do.” giving him a giggle.
Then he give me a tight hug.

STAR - Chapter 6 : Tears run down his face
As the students noticed, Rai is courting me and there’s something going between us . well, there nothing going on. Except for the fact that I will say yes to Rai this 20th of July.
But one thing I have noticed. Rei is not around the school these past few days. Wonder what happened to him. I hope he’s feeling well.
“Hey, Mia. Let’s eat. My treat.” Oh, Here comes Rai.
So we went to the cafeteria to buy some food. There was Rei with his friends.
As I go nearer to him, his eyes try to tell me something. I just can’t figure it out. When I was just about to ask him if we can join them , He stood up and walk so fast, like I smell bad. I don’t know what’s wrong with him. Or did I say something wrong? Or is he just in bad mood? I don’t know. I can’t tell.
So we move to another table. Where it is quiet and quite romantic.
“You’re getting more beautiful each day, Mia”
“Oh thank you."Was all I can say to him.
He tried to kiss me, but I don’t know what happened to my senses. I just cant kiss him right now.
Maybe with what Rei was acting awhile ago made my mind confused. And also my heart.
So I decided to go to his room to consult what is his problem.
I knocked three times. He didn’t answer.
My sweaty palms hold the door knob. It was open. So I step in.
I saw him in his bed. With his guitar on his side. And the dashes on his wrists. I know he tried to kill himself by cutting his wrist. So as I see this, I came fastly towards him.
“Why in the world did you do this, Rei?” I asked angrily.
“What did make you do this, huh?” I asked again.
He just murmured something I couldn’t understand.
“Answer me!” I said in despair.
“I don’t know.” He said.
“I’m gonna ask you something.”
“please be honest with me.” He continued.
“are you going to say yes to Rai?” he asked.
My heart beats really fast. I don’t want to answer his question. But he asked again.
“ARE GOING TO SAY YES?” he asked, shouting.
“I don’t know.”
Then he stopped. He is trying to say something. But his mouth won’t open.
He stood up from his bed. Sitting, faced down. As I look at the floor. I see droplets of tears. He is crying. But why?
Then he looked at me, with his teary blue eyes. As his blue eyes reach my green eyes, I see the pain he is feeling inside. The pain that was once in my heart. The feeling of being left alone.

STAR - Chapter 7: Kiss
His eyes, filled with such deep emotions. I pitied him. Actually regretting of the decisions I just have made. Maybe this is not the right time – to say yes to Rai. I lift his head. And I saw what my face was when I felt this. It’s just pitiful.
With the big chance, he pressed his lips onto mine. Not thinking of anything but the desperate need of his heart for my love. I didn’t felt annoyed or irritated. I felt the warmth, the intense love I was longing for. The love I was once giving to someone. Now it’s like it was returned to me. My shattered heart was whole again.
“I’m sorry, Mia,” he said. Face downward.
“No...Uhm...It’s okay.” I said not expecting myself to be like this.
“Now, can you explain everything? Answer all my questions.” With those teary eyes again, he said.
“Okay, yeah. I was going to say yes to Rai. But..--- ”
“Yeah . I guess he’s more deserving.” Cutting my sentence off.
“Please let me finish my sentences first.” I demanded.
“I’m sorry.”
“But this whole event is shaking my head off. So, for now, I wouldn’t.”
Amazed with what I have said
“Really? Then, would you give me a chance to prove myself?”
“Of... course.” I grinned.
“Thank you.”
“…Very much.” He said between breathes.
He smiled. Feeling better. He wiped all his tears and faced me again. He was desperate. He loved me so much that he was afraid—afraid that I would fall with another guy. The message was all in his eyes, traveling into mine. And affecting all the systems in my brain. Like it was corrupting my brain.
Another day has begun. It was sunny, like the sun was going to burst out. I put some sun block, SPF 80. And I got out of my well organized room. There was a weird setting outside. Red and white roses all flowed onto the little pond forming a “143” sign. What kind of idiot would do this? Perhaps…….
