Plan

Melvern has a point. Now that he said those words, my mind start to wonder why Id didn't think about that yesterday. Well, my mind last night was to know that man's name so I guess I did not have any rationality last night.

Calathea is surely a big name. Their security must be tighter than my family. Especially, I am asking for a video of their CCTV. They might think that I am into bad things and accused me of any charges if I force Carding and his minions to do my order.

I don't want to cause a big scene again. Like what my mother said, my latest offenses was about that girl who I followed (not stalked). If I get into a trouble again, and a big trouble at that, my mother will probably disown me. My powers of cuteness and sweetness will not be effective on her unlike to the two man in our house.

Maybe I should just do it on my own? No problems plus my mother will probably just let me as long as it will not cause any trouble. And, I have time on my hands for weeks now. If I will lessen my escapades with ny friends, I will have so much time to get the information I needed. And midterm examination will be next month, so my mother will not have any reasons to stop me.

I busied myself on planning, step by step. The first thing I should do is to know his name. Knowing his name will be easier for me to gather a lot of information especially if we are in the same circle of social status. I won't need to hire anyone to gather information about him, if I will just get his name. But what if we're not in the same circle? That will be really hard.

And like any other things in life, first step is the hardest.

I don't know how to get his name. Since it's my first time, I googled it. I learned a few things and I got an idea out of it. If that man attended the talk of the town party for this month proves that our status was just on the same level or so. And if he got invited, that just mean that the Calathea knows him, right?

So the plan to make my first step successful is to asked for his name to the celebrant.

I giggled when I encircle the 'First plan' writings on my small notebook while I am sitting on my bed late at night. This just feels like super exciting.

But my excitement for that night vanished immediately.

The celebrant, who I've been waiting to pop up, didn't happen. I didn't get to see her face in all corners of the campus. I waited for her at the cafeterias, the gym, the parks, the benches, but no sign of her at all. I think our campus was so big that my chnaces of seeing her was very low as of the moment.

Beside, I only know her name and surname, Louise Hernandez Calathea. That's what it said to the invitation she gave me. If I will just know her strand or grade level, it will be easy to go to places where her grade are probably having class.

Shall I asked for a help from my friends? They probably know what grade level that Calathea girl. But if I asked them, aren't they gonna think that I will do something to the girl? I rarely asked them since I have bodyguards and they might think that my mother forbids me from it since I didn't asked my bodyguards.

Well, I still have a plan b for my first plan.

I scrolled the pictures on my gallery at my phone from that party while laying on my bed. I took many photos that night to have many choices to post on my social media. I zoomed-in each and every photo to make sure that I searched it thoroughly. I spent my whole night at my gallery and found nothing useful at all.

So after that night, I borrowed Anika's phone to look at the photos she has taken that night. She took almost a hundreds. Most of those pictures was blurred. Just how did she took pictures? Is she riding on a roller coaster while taking pictures?

Instead of being a serious one while looking at her photos, I just keep laughing most of the times. There's so much of funny candid photos of our friends. I even saw a picture of me with my eyes white and open mouth. I looked like a white lady! Geez!

Before Anika noticed it, I immediately delete that photo and another photo slides in. I zoomed it in and almost scream in excitement.

Finally! I saw it!

There's one selfie of her from the desert table. I zoomed it in again and this is the only time that I thanked her phone. The quality of the pictures was to the highest level! I can see the man's side view face. But because he was standing a bit far from Anika when she took the photo, his face was not clear when I zoomed it in. But I am 100% sure that it is him! Even though I only looked at him for a couple of minutes, I remembered what he looks and what he wore that night like it happened just a day ago.

I immediately share it to my phone. And when I got home that afternoon, I'm happily printed it out.

Finally! After days of searching for his photos, I finally got it! I can't help myself but to kiss the paper that his face printed on it. I slept so well that night while the paper was just beside my pillow.

Thursday, a night after I printed his picture, me and my friends are eating our snacks at 8950. As always, our table was loud. They are trying to make me talk or give opinions about their topic, but my mind was out of it. I am stretching my neck to look at the entrance door every now and then. But got stopped when Anika teased me about it.

"Look who's day dreaming again. Just how long that dream of you? It looks so long since you're daydreaming from Monday till now. Share your dream to us, girl," Anika irritating low voice makes our friends laugh.

I rolled my eyes at her and raise my middle finger at her. She laughed so hard because of that while keeps on teasing me. Our friends ride with her funny remarks about me these past few days but I didn't care about them. I eat my carbonara while shaking my head to them.

"Come on, Sha! Share it. I'm super curious about it," Anika who didn't know when to stop, keeps asking me.

"Shut up, Nik. Why are you seeing me now? Where's your great boyfriend?" I glares at her but she didn't notice it since Mary asked her for something for a second before answering me.

"He have a plans with Shain to the neighbouring university. You didn't know?" she asked me but I just shake my head, "Anyway, what's with you this past few days? You can consult that to me. You'll never know that I might be the answer to it," she smirk.

I raises an eyebrow at her. Now that I think about it, she got a point. Anika has a wide intel of persons in the socialites. She attended lots of parties and meet a lot of people because of that. Plus, she's friendly inside and outside of the campus and has lots of connections.

Now that I have the picture of that man, I should just show it to her and asked her to find details about him. Just his name is more than enough. But I can't do that here where our friends are present and lots of people might hear us if I suddenly asked her.

I shake my head at her and just eat my pasta when my eyes suddenly caught the person I've been waiting for days now. The brithday celebrant last week entered the canteen with her two friends. They were giggling while entering the canteen.

I smirk when my eyes fixed on them. Anika, who I'm talking to earlier, noticed that I'm looking at someone. She turned her head to follow my sight.

"Do you have business to Louise and her friends?"

Now that the person I am waiting is her, is this the chance to approach her and asked her about the picture? But approaching her with only a knowledge of her name and status is awkward. She might get afraid of me and run before I even get near her.

I straightened my back and smiled at Anika. She frowns at me and cringe her face with disgust.

"Stop smiling at me like that! You're being a creep, girl."

I ignored her and put my hands on the table. I leaned forward my body and keep on smiling at her.

"Do you know Louise?"

She raised an eyebrow and nods her head, "Yes? Why? Don't tell me you really have a business at her?"

"I'm just gonna ask her a few things. Do you know where her building is?"

She looks at me for abit while putting down the coke she was sipping and copy my position, "Jonard has a cursh on her," she turned her head to the other side and pointed Jonard with her lips.

"Hey, Jonard," she called him.

Jonard, who has still a spoon in his mouth looks at Anika with a curious look.

" You like Louise Calathea, right? " Anika asked as I nods my head for unknown reason.

Jonard cough once when Anika asked him about Louise gaining laughs from our other friends. His cheeks suddenly became red and glares at Anika, "What the hell? Where did that came from?"

What? So he didn't like Louise? I kicked Anika's feet under the table. I mouthed her to stop but she just mouthed me that it's fine.

How is that fine? Everyone will know that I'm into that Calathea princess!

" Didn't you say it months ago? That she's beautiful and your type? I remember that boy! Don't deny that," Anika smirks playfully.

Jonard widens his eyes and coughed again, "The hell Anika? What do you want now, huh?"

Anika wiggles her eyebrows at me. I almost laugh because of her expressions.

"You see that?" she turned her head to Louise who is now lining up to buy food with her friends, "Louise Calathea. What year level and building is she?"

"Why do you want to know? Are you perhaps.." he looked at Anika then to me with a judgemental eyes, "Going to do bad things to her? If yes then figure jt out by yourself!"

I frowns at his accusations. But our friends agreed with him. They said my previous offenses where I asked for a student name. Why are they accusing me when it's Anika who asked him?

"We're just asking you, Jon.Why are you being complicated?" I glares at him and pointed him using my fork.

"Just tell us, you bastard," Anika threw some potato chips at his way.

He tried to avoid the chips but it landed on his uniform already. He glares at Anika and he threw back to her the potato chips until our table became a mess.

I sighed heavily. Instead of getting a useful information, they got a potato chips fight. Just how great is that?

It's a good thing that we have a one hour vacant. When they got tired of throwing potato chips, they started to asked to go out of the campus and eat outside. Maybe they are in a good mood from their little messy play that they all agreed to go out.

They asked me but I just shooed them away using my hand lazily. I rolled my eyes at Anika who's laughing and giggling while clinging to Mary's arm.

She said she'll be the answer to my questions! Nevermind that girl!

Louise and her friend sat down on a four chair round table just three tables acrosss mine. That's why I can clearly see her and her friends face.

She is with two girls, the one with the short hair looks familiar. Maybe I got talked to her before or she went to some party I also attended. Or maybe she was a candidate on a beauty pageant I am part of. She got a ookks and a tall slender body so I guess the latter is the reason why she was familiar.

I lean my back against my chair as I watched the two of her friends giggling while she was just smiling at their funny remarks. She was really such an old fashion girl. The way she holds the plastic fork, the bottle of the Sprite, the way her lips cover the straw of her drinks, and the way her back didn't even touch the backrest of her chair, are all firm and limitly. Her movements was so graceful.

Is there such a girl, in this century, who moves like a feather? Well, she was just across my table, so obviously, there are still people who values feather like movements.

I was watching them and almost drink all my coke when my phone beeped for a text. I opened the message and smirk.

From: Anika

Louise Hernandez Calathea, 18 year old, Grade 11. Her classroom was on third floor of the Junior High building. Treat me later, bitch.

I laughed as I reply to her message. When I put my phone on my purse, Louise and her friends start getting up. The two other girls are clinging to each other's arms while Louise was being left as she tried to gather the styrofoam and bottles of softdrinks they used to one place. She also puts the chair in place and run to her friends after.

I raised an eyebrow at that. Is she just kind or pretending? Well, whatever it is, I still need to approach her to asked the man's name.

I hurriedly grabbed my purse and walked to the way they went. Because of my heeled shoes, my walk was in moderate. Gladly they walked not that fast too and enter the Junior High building. I immediately walked to their way. I saw them standing in the middle hall as Louise was saying something. The two girls nodded their head walked up to the stairs. Louise starts to walk and enter a women's comfort room.

I licks my lips and smile as I follow her. Inside the comfort room, there are some girls washing their hands at the sink and girls on the powder side putting some lipstick when they all got quite when I enter.

I smiled at them but they seem to be looking at some witch. They do their things fast and didn't even bother drying their hands before walking out.

Silence filled the comfort room. Except for the sound of the air-condition, I hear no more flushes or footsteps for almost one minute. But just to sure that no bad rumors will spread tomorrow, I open the doors in each cubicle. When I hear a sound from the last door, I smile again.

Great. Now, there's only me and Louise here. Seems like heaven favors me today.
