Its been a week since Sophie went to school I think she's still mad at me that's why she always absent. Ford and Dei said they don't know either what happen to her but I think they're lying to me what should I do? Should I visit her or text her....waaaaahhhhh.....Lance what on earth you're doing it's been a week and you didn't apologize of what happen? My goodness, when you help her she said thank you and brought you cakes the day after you help her and you? Been a week for not apologizing? Geez..I'm such a scumbag I think Sophie need to hit my face so hard to be fair.

"Hey, what are you thinking Lance?" Zeya said.

"Oh it's nothing don't mind me."

"Tsss..As if you can fool us you're thinking Sophie right?"

"Tomorrow is weekend let go visit her." Rein said.

"But, what if she mad at me?" Lance said.

"Oh right..I'm In.."Mica said.

"Huh? But..."Lance said.

"No buts' brought Sophie ice cream she never resists the goodness of food.'." Ford said.

Why do I have the feeling that I'm wooing Sophie? But what If her parents misinterpret me? They said her dad returning home from business trip every spring season. Geez...Their family is not like my family they're super rich compare to us this is bad. Ford and others got my back but what if they left me behind? What should I do?

"Blush..Hello Zeya.." Ford said

"She's in her room." Dei said.

"This is my firstime here to Sophie's house it's grandiose." Rein said.

Mica hits Rein's head "Idiot, of course half of the business establishment in the City is belongs to her family." Mica said.

"Ouch, you're so mean if you hit me again I will kiss you for the punishment."Rein said and Mica's face turning red and she said, "Nonsense."

"Okay guys, let's go inside." Dei said and Sheen gets close to her and he said "Dei, can I borrow your notes in History?"

"Uhm...I gave it to you later follow me to our house." Dei keeps walking and she doesn't mind Sheen.

"I know your mad at me but let me explain my side first." Lance said.

"Okay, I'm listening."

"Uhm..Actually, I also want to prove myself to my parents that I can do my best with or without their help."

"And then? Keep talking..."

"Ahm...And...I want to be with you guys because ever since I was kid no one wants to be my friend because they said I am perfectionist and when I met you and the others I feel relieved. Because, yes finally I had a friend that never judge who I am even though you all rich compare to me."

"Rich? Were all people here no matter what your skin is white or black, rich or poor in the end of the day were breathing the same air.

"Yes, and from now on I do my very best to be like you guys I am grateful that I met the group of friends that never do anything bad but encourage the other like me to pursue their dream and to prove themselves."

"Sigh..Let's go and meet them too much drama can kill the mood."Sophie holds Lance hand and they went upstairs to meet the others.

"Blush...ahm..Sophie I think you can let go my hand it's unnecessary this is your house."

Dumbfounded, "Ah...eh okay..." Sophie let go the hand of Lance.

Rein opens the door, "Hey, you two what are you doing outside? Com on in don't be shy." Rein said.

Sophie hits Rein and she said, "Bastard, Who is shy me? Duh...This is my house stupid...Sigh...Mica talk to your pet." Sophie and lance enter the games room.

Lance pats Rein and he said while entering the room, "Bro, just behave okay?" Lance said.

"You two...so mean to me...Boohoo..." Rein said and Mica drags him inside.

"Wow...Is this only a game room? This is like a game station in mall."Lance said.

"All our houses have game room don't tell me your house don't have it?" Sophie said.

"Yeah..."Lance said and everyone looks at him and they all said.

"What?"

"Wait, as we all know you're not that poor right? Your family had small company for travel agency then you don't have game room?" Rein said.

Lance went to every area of the room while talking. "Yes, my family is not that rich like yours I don't have a nanny or this kind of game area of my house well, we have entertainment room and its our living room also."

Sheen embraces Lance, "How sad is your story you can leave in my house if you want you can play every game you want. Boohoo.."

"No, Lance can go to my house." Rein said and they all offer their houses to Lance.

Lance pushes them away, "Guys, listen okay? I am thankful that you all care for me but I am happy in what I have simple life, I can eat three times a day my parents provide my needs and I am grateful with that.."Lance said.

"Oh right, from now on we your friends never live you behind to make you happy." Sophie said.

"But, Lance I am really curious what your house look like."Ford said.
