BEYOND PERFECT - CHAPTER 4&5
Max’s pov
I couldn’t stop thinking about yesterday night. It was so strange and I’m so tired, but I mustn’t show tiredness so no one gets suspicious. As I was almost dosing off I saw a frail figure with white hair.
I opened my eyes and identified the infamous Ella Ross, the oldest being in the school, I wonder how she’s still alive.
You are Max Kim, right?
Yeah
Come with me.
Excuse you, I said already getting filled with rage.
Who the h*ll does this hag think she is.
You didn’t use the pills.
H-how’d you know
It’s quite obvious, it’s only a matter of time before the authorities catch up on you….. But I can help you.
Come with me.
Ok then.
I followed her back to her dorm, turns out she’s the only one in the school with her own personal dorm, probably perks of being a granny, I chuckled.
Welcome to mt heaven,
She said with a weak smile.
To be honest I was impressed. It looks like a science paradise, with different sort of experiment and all. Then she went to a cupboard and brought out a pill.
Use this, it will clear the effects of not using the pills permanently.
And why should I trust anything you give to me
I lived here far more than you kid, I know what I’m doing
Hmmm…… Ok gimme that. I took the pills from her and left. I’ll tell Alex about it in due time

Chapter 5
(BFF)
Sophie’s pov
It’s been two weeks and maya’s still giving me the cold shoulder, I’ve tried everything but I can’t get her to talk to me. I’ve forgiven Harper though. I suck at holding grudges. I took out my phone to try and call Maya one more time, but her number was unavailable (we were given special phones that can only call people that use that same type of phone so as to aid socialization, cause the school is pretty big)
As I stepped into class, Maya came out of nowhere and hugged me.
I was stunned, but I hugged her back. I missed her so much.
I know you didn’t take my notepad Sophie , I know Harper framed you. She said sounding sorry
How’d you know
Well I got a lil help from Alex…. Who am I kidding, Alex is the one who figured everything out.
Oh really
Yeah
Then let’s go and thank him.
We walked to the table shared by Max and Alex. I did my best to avoid eye contact with Max, she still scares the crap outta me.
Hm….. Maya told me you were the one who found out the truth about the whole notepad thing, thank you very much. Is there anything I can do to repay the favor.
Not really… Just know you owe me one
Ok. Can you tell me exactly how you did it.
Well it’s not big deal for a computer genius like me. But we won’t be able to use the evidence against Harper cause I didn’t exactly get it in a law abiding way.
Ohhh… Ok Guess I’ll see you around then.
Max’s pov
I can’t believe Alex us lying to that girl, he doesn’t know the first thing about computers.
Did you ask for Liam’s help, I asked in a hushed tone to make sure he’s the only one that can hear me.
M-maybe
You assh0le. I couldn’t believe my ears, he risked us getting caught just to impress a girl. You are a f_cking dumbass, you know that.
I guess I am.
Anyway I have something important to tell you
Ok go ahead
Not here you dimwit, let’s go somewhere quiet
Ok ok
We went to the chemistry laboratory, and I made sure to lock all doors and windows and check for cameras
So what do you want to tell me
Stop using the vitamins
Say what now
You heard me, they’re putting us on some kind of enchanto using those vitamins
And you know that, how?
I mistakenly missed my vitamins one day and the strangest thing happened at night
So even if all this is true you are trying to tell me the school won’t notice when you don’t use it
Well normally they’ll notice, but that’s why I have this. I brought out Ella’s pill, they worked like charm.
So you want me to stop using the vitamins and start using this strange new pill
You only have to use it once, it removes the effects of nor using the pills
I know you aren’t lying, I’m your twin I literally feel your emotions. But what if this thing doesn’t work like you were promised it would
It will work, I just know it
Ok then give it to me, I’ll skip tomorrow’s pill and see what happens
Cool. I’m out of here, it’s stuffy
Sophie’s pov
I was alone in my room studying when I received a message from an unknown number asking me to meet them in the school’s garden tomorrow.
They claim to have information I want.
