FLORENCE HIGH SCHOOL.
Jesse sits with his friends in the classroom, T-chatting with them, since the homeroom teacher went on a leave.
"You're so lucky Jesse, at least you have a dad who still reminds you about your birthday, as for my dad, he doesn't care if I exist or not, all he cares about is drinking and getting drunk". Dre said.
"My dad is the best Dad in the whole world, and that why he is so important to me". Jesse said smiling.
"But he is not the only one important to you right". Sam asked smiling.
"Huh, what are you talking about, my Dad is the only important person in my life, no one else".
"Really".
"Of course Dre, who else is important to me apart from my Dad huh!". He half yells.
And Anna Walks in with her two friends, T-chatting and laughing, and Jesse looks at her glups down nothing, admiring her beautiful she looks.
Her eyes were the prettiest eyes he has ever seen, her face was round and small, her smiles were one in a million, no wonder she was the beautiful queen of Florence High, Jesse thought within himself, as he continues looking at Anna, and he could feel his heart beating like a drumming drum.
Dre waves his hand near Jesse's eyes, but he didn't blink, his whole eyes and brains were fitted on Anna, who was still T-chatting and laughing with her friends.
How could she be so beautiful, is she an angel from heaven, that might have probably come to Earth to live among humans.
Sam pinch him and he quickly came back to the land of the living.
"What was that for Sam". Jesse asked.
"Looks like you finally came back to life, it seems you were dead a while ago, I knew it, your Dad isn't the only important person in your life". Dre said laughing.
"My Dad is the only one important to me, do I need to say it a hundred and one times, before it get stuck in your ears."
"Then what about Anna". Dre asked pointing at Anna who was so forcus talking to her friends.
"Huh". Jesse muttered.
"I know you have a crush on Anna Jesse, you are always staring at her, but you both are world aparts, she is rich, and you are poor, we only attend this school because of a scholarship,,I guess that why you can't tell her, you have a crush on her". Dre said.
"I don't have a crush on Anna Dre, I might be poor, but Anna is not my type of girl,why will I have a crush on her, she so full of herself because her dad is Rich".
"Whatever then,but I know you still have a crush on Anna". Sam said with a giggle, and leaves the class with Dre, who was also laughing too.
"You both are so annoying". Jesse said to them as they left the class.
He turns his gaze at Anna, and she was still T-chatting and laughing with her friends, flirting with her hair.
"She is so beautiful". Jesse muttered with a smile, but the moment Anna looks at him, he quickly looked away, pretending he was so forcus in his book.
"Why is he always so shy to look at me". Anna muttered.
She looks at him again and chuckles with a smiles.
