(SWEET MOMENT)
“Hey I’m back, Mav” Sydney smiled, showing off her well arranged set of tooth.
“Dela, come with me” Dylan said and took Delaney away from the hallway.
Mavis tried following again but Sydney held him tighter.
“Get the hell off!” He shouted at her, and her eyes widened as she let go of his hand.
“I came back for you Mavis, i swear it’s…..
“Go to Nicholas” he cut her off.
“I swear it Mav, we were both drunk that day, we weren’t in our right senses and that’s why…
“Did you come to give lame flimsy excuses?, How daft” Mavis smiled, and she blinked.
“You’re my filthy past, the one I h@ťě” he replied and rolled eyes before starting to walk away.
“Mav!!!” She screamed, but he never stopped till he went out of sight.
Sydney bit her lip slightly.
“Sydney?” Someone called, and she looked back.
“Gladys” she muttered.
“OMG! when did you come back!!” Gladys shouted, rushing to hug her.
They were actually there before Sydney travelled. Madelyn, Gladys and Sydney.
“I landed thirty minutes ago and I came here straight away, to meet Mav” she replied simply.
“He told you off?” Gladys laughed.
“It’s not funny” Sydney glaredl.
“I’m laughing because he’d never look at you, not when Delaney is still in this school” she said, and Sydney squinted.
“Delaney?”
“I’ll give you all the gist, let’s go to the hostel first?, Did your luggage arrive with you?” Gladys replied.
“No it’ll arrive tommorow, what about Madelyn?” Sydney asked.
“She landed in the hospital after Dylan broke her heart because of Delaney” Gladys replied.
“Delaney again?” Sydney said.
“She’s like a witch” Gladys replied as they went down the hallway.

AQUARIUM**
Dylan’s car stopped in front of it, and he came out with Delaney.
He actually took her to the park after leaving the hallway earlier, and it took a lot of manpower to make her agree to come here.
“I know your part time jobs starts at 4, so by 3:40, we’ll leave” he said, and she remained blank as they went in together.
She smiled secretly as she walked behind him, she can’t wait to see the fishes again.
Dylan got their tickets and they went in. She rushed to the glass pool and stayed beside it, touching it’s body as she beheld the beautiful fishes again.
“I missed you guys” she smiled, waving at them.
They kept swimming around, and she kept giggling cutely as she watched.
Dylan decided not to spoil her moment, so he just watched from behind.
“Hi, my name is Delaney Wang, I live with my bestie since I lost my parents” she introduced herself to the fishes, and the smile disappeared from Dylan’s face when he remembered he R@P£D her that same night.
Before he knew it, tears fell from his eyes, but he quickly wiped the tears, cursing himself inwardly.
“I wanna become a popular model and make money with my body charms in the future, that’s my ambition” she said as a dolphin swam to her.
Her smile grew wider and wider by the minutes, and she even forgot she had to go to her jobs, not until Dylan checked the time.
“3:45!, Dela we need to leave!’ he said, grabbing her hand.
He started rushing out of the place with her, and Dela kept looking back at the fishes till they got back outside and entered his car.
He drove so fast to the coffee shop, and they got there five minutes to 4.
“Thanks” she said.
“I don’t know if it’ll amount to anything, but just like I wrote fifty love letters to you back then, I’ll write fifty apology letters, and just like I sent 101 love texts, I’ll send 101 apology texts too, and just like I did ten public confessions, I’ll do ten public apologies too, I don’t care if you disgrace me again, I’ll take it all since I’m a jerk anyways, I don’t deserve pity” he said, and she looked at him.
“Have fun at your jobs” he smiled, and she came out of the car.
He drove away and she sighed, biting her lip before entering the shop.

9:30PM★MMC HOSTEL**
Delaney got back since ten minutes ago, and all the girls are surprisingly asleep except Paisley who was writing her assignments.
After eating the dinner she bought, she lay quietly on her bed, remembering Dylan’s words earlier.
“What were you saying earlier in school?” Paisley asked.
“What?”
“You played hard to get in highschool and you still regret it took now?, Is it what I’m thinking?” Paisley replied, and Delaney smiled.
“Don’t think too much about it, goodnight baby” she said and closed her eyes.

NEXT DAY★ MMC**
“So….you said all that just to open Leo’s eyes?” Dylan said as he came out of the lounge with his friends.
They came to school early to play games in there actually.
“Of course, but he’s not ready to see actually” Midas replied, and Trevor laughed.
“Can’t believe that’s coming from a guy who’s actually f-__-king his girlfriend”
“I’m getting tired of her” Midas replied, and they both faced him at once.
“Whoa”
“I swear, she’s becoming too wide” Midas replied, and they both laughed.
“Madelyn is back!!!” A girl said across the hallway, and all the girls rushed out of the hallway immediately.
“She was hospitalized yesterday cos she consumed a poison that almost ki||ed her, and now she’s back?, She’s got nine lives” Trevor said.
“Now their squad is complete” Dylan sighed.
“You mean Sydney?” Midas said, and Dylan sighed, entering the locker room with him.
*****
Today is the cheerleading team audition and football practice, so everyone made their ways to the locker room immediately they arrived.
Delaney got to the locker room with her friends and immediately she opened her locker, she saw a letter which she took slowly.
She recognized the handwriting on the body immediately, Dylan’s.
She turned her back on the girls before opening it to read…
★ HURTING YOU WAS STUPID, AND I KNOW THAT NO AMOUNT OF SORRY CAN HEAL YOU, BUT PLEASE… ALLOW ME TO STAY BESIDE YOU AND MEND YOU…. PLEASE DELA ★
Immediately she finished reading, her phone buzzed. It’s a text from an unknown number but it’s obviously him.
★PLEASE GIVE ME A CHANCE, I’M SORRY DELA★
“Aren’t you done yet?” Paisley suddenly asked behind her, and she quickly hid the letter and put off her phone.
“Just about to dress up” she replied and quickly changed into her bum short and thin singlet.
“Delaney I wanna eat you raw, you look too Șëx¥!” Gigi said naughtily.
“Crazy thing” Delaney replied and they all laughed as they left the room.
“Sydney is back, Madelyn is back too, wow!” Carina read from her phone.
“Anyhow, it’s their headache” Melinda and Delaney said at a time then they stuck hands.
“Hey, Dela” Dylan said behind them, and they all looked back to see him. He changed into his jersey already, and all the girls has wide eyes immediately. He looked extra hot in the white on white.
He went on his knees in front of Delaney..
? Whoaaaaaa!!
Students started gathering around to capture the moment.
“I’m sorry Dela, for causing you pains and making you cry” he said.
? What’s going on?
? Strange?
? Making her cry?
Delaney looked around at the students before walking away from him. Her friends followed immediately, and Dylan stood.
“Dude, what was that” Trevor said.
“Let’s go to the stadium” Dylan smiled, leading the way after pocketing his hands.
“So… she’s the Delaney everyone has been talking about” Sydney said from where she’s standing with Madelyn.
They’ve been watching.
“Yeah, as you can see” Madelyn replied, replaying what just happened in her head.
“The witch” Gladys smiled, leading the way to the stadium.
