CHAPTER 5: EXAM, EXAM, EXAM

Rhianna woke up late but not late for the school gate close. She slept late last night studying her subjects for the preliminary exam. So much happened being a new student in Bright School.

Two months ago, she was just walking this hallway like everybody else.

Now she had noticed all persons in school were busy studying one by one. Today is the judgement day for all of them. Rhianna was not that behind when it comes to grades. She was not dumb at school.

Good grades were not hard for her. Her classroom was far from the stairs so she needs to pass three sections before her classroom.

Ocean was done reviewing all subjects last night. Being A student usually got the confident not to study more on the day of exam. While his classmates were, concentrate attentively.

He saw Rhianna passed by their classroom. She was quite a little late than her usual time. He was sure she did sleep late last night. Studying hard at home, he guesses.

Their teacher came in with the test papers in her hands. It goes with the other classrooms too when they saw all of teachers passing by at the hallway.

Section Gold

Rhianna seated just in time when their adviser came in with the exam sheets. Their seats arranged far apart from each other for the exam.

Their teacher looked at every row then start counting before she will give the exam sheets. When the school bell rang, the students in front started passing it from front to back.

One by one, they began to answer the test paper. Rhianna closes her eyes to relaxed for a while doing exhale and inhale movement. Then starts writing with her name on the sheets.

The whole school was so quiet. Each of the students focus their attentions with the exams. The teacher was also busy looking for the cheaters.

After 4 hours, it ended smoothly. They were all loosening up a while. They were happy that it is over. They will get the result after a few weeks.

Henna screamed as she finished her exams. It was a tortured to her; she did not sleep well few days ago. She is sure that she would be rank lower again.

Rhianna and Sophie laughed hysterically with Henna's reactions. 'This girl is really cute', they thought. Both Rhianna and Sophie were fond of Henna. There is something in her that still act like a child.

For two months, Henna has been a good friend to them. They do not have any flaws. She was cute, nice and very friendly not just them but to everybody in school. Henna grabbed both of their hands.

"Let's go girls. We need to celebrate. Let's go shopping. We do not have anything to do this afternoon. Our teacher already announced that we can go home after the exam." Henna sure is a happy go lucky girl.

They were both smiling when they walked towards the parking lot. Sophie Liu brought her own car. It was not a latest model. But still in good condition.

Rhianna was sitting in passenger seat while Henna was at the back. They will go and spend with their free time in the mall.

Ocean Huang and his friends went to Wang Shopping Mall. Jenson Lee suggested unwinding after the exams. They do not know where exactly to go. Since they were inside the mall, they just strolled around for a while.

For the meantime, the girls (Rhianna, Sophie & Henna) just arrived at the basement 1 parking lot. They stepped out of the car; they go straight to the elevator up to the first floor.

Henna and Sophie were excited to see the new trending dress this month. Only Sophie was not that fond of skirts or dress, but loves shorts and jeans.

Rhianna did not care about clothes; she has lots of them in her closets. Her friends dashed inside the store. They were eager to try the new arrivals.

However, Alexa and her friends were there in the cashier, seeing their hands full of shopping bags.

Rose was the one who noticed them as they enter the store. "Alexa, look who's in the store?"

Alexa turned her eyes at the entrance. "What a nerd!" She marched together her friends towards Rhianna's friends. "Hey, can you afford this stuff?" She laughed.

Rhianna calmed herself down. She knew that Alexa was just trying to piss her. However, she avoided her as she walked pass by her. Alexa got irritated. She grabbed Rhianna's arm hard.

Rhianna still talked calmly. "What do you think you're doing? Let go of your hand."

Alexa was enraged, seeing Rhianna's face still in calm. She still did not let go her hand. "So, what are you going to do then?"

Rhianna answered her back. "Well, do not force me. Just let it go. Stop making this worst."

"What! Hahaha you want to fight with me. This is my mall I can kick you out." She said sarcastically threat her.

"Just because this is your mall, you can just do whatever you want to your customers. Is this what you learn in your life? Showing people around here how ugly your personality is." Rhianna continued rambling on while Alexa noticed around the store many people watching them.

Instantly, she let go Rhianna's arm. "We are not done yet, nerdy." Alexa walked out the store in a flash.

"The girl is insane. I do not know why she is against you." Sophie Liu complained, holding Rhianna arms that turned red.

Henna was also mad looking the red spot mark in Rhianna's arm. "I think she is jealous of you in some way."

Rhianna did not bother to think about Alexa. She is still trying to act cool. However, I hope Alexa will not go beyond her limits that she will lose control and fight her back.

Ocean was at the scene and saw everything in that store. His friends went to the other store. He decided to go inside the dress store to buy for his mother, a gift for her birthday. Luckily, Alexa did not see him as he went inside to the other entrance.

Not long after, he saw Rhianna and her friends came in to that store. He did not expect that Rhianna still in composed as she spoke to Alexa who was fierce.

He started to like her in some aspects. This girl is not simple. She does not easily be bullied.
