Vin's POV:
"Hey Enzo, what do you mean I can take Rex with me!!!?" I shouted at my half brother.
"Calm down, Vin." He rubbed his temple with his first two fingers. "I have an important meeting and I need Rob for that." He explained about why he's shamelessly exchanging my smart Robot with his T-Rex.
"And you, Dane? Why are you not coming with me?" I shot a glare to my other side where my other guard was standing.
"Signorino, sorry I have to go..." He said in his deep voice "...today's my mom's birthday."
Ohhh...
"Mom's birthday?" I bit my lips thinking.
"Y-yes." He looked down as if he thinks I don't care but I do.
"Hey Enzo, give me your card." I held out my hand to my brother who looked puzzled but still gave me his credit card. "Take this and buy your mom a diamond necklace from me." I held out the card to Dane who just looked at me, shocked. "What! I can't give your mom a present?" I narrowed my eyes on him.
"N..no signorino, it's not like that..." He stuttered a little "Y..you already gave that two years ago."
I furrowed my eyebrows to think.
"Then what about a designer dress?"
"You gave that last year."
"Limited edition bag?"
"You gave that too..."
"...expensive shoes?"
He shook his head again.
"How long have you been working for me exactly?" I yelled at him in irritation.
"M..more than five years." He answered stupidly in his heavy voice and I just rolled my eyes.
"Then go and buy your mom a sports car." His eyes widened "Or does she like bikes?" I asked, he just looked at me in awe.
Hahahaha, I was just teasing him but the others gave me The Look. Bunch of idiots couldn't even get jokes!
I ignored them all and walked towards the door, then I turned my head slightly to look back.
Dane was giving the card back to Enzo who just patted his shoulder saying, "Buy your mother a new phone." With a half smile my brother left without taking his card back.
A wide smile appeared on my face.
.
As I left my house I saw Rex, standing in his so called suit that looks more like a bodyguard uniform, near my car, waiting for me to come. But as soon as he looked at me from head to toe, his facial expression changed drastically.
What! I raised my head high. I was wearing my pink leather jacket with matching shoes over white shirt and grey jeans. I know I look awesome but why is he giving me this ugly look? Ha! like I didn't know the answer already.
He looked behind me, as if requesting someone. I turned around too, only to find Rob and Dane standing behind me. Both have a playful smile on their faces.
I know they're happy as hell.
For one, they don't have to accompany me today.
For two, Rex has to go in their place.
I want to wipe the smile off their stupid faces but...on second thought, let them enjoy themselves. Just for today. I smirked and stared at Rex until he looked distressed. Haha, he's angry now.
As soon as I sat in the car, I told him to play music. He did as I said with an eye roll. Then I started singing a bit too loud just to irritate him... but he didn't give any reaction. Is he ill or something?
Then I slapped his shoulder from behind and told him to sing with me. He clenched the wheel hard until his knuckles turned white. Haha, Now I see a spark. With a little bit of more annoyance and he'll be burning like hell fire.
As we stopped in the parking area, I asked him to take off his coat. The face he made at me made me roll my eyes then I told him to stop making a face as he's not that pretty to begin with and to blend in this stupid place. He looked at other students wearing white shirts. Then finally did as I asked and shrugged off his coat.
Ha idiot! Just you wait till I make you go to my class too, in my place. An evil smile appears on my face.
.
I was walking and Rex was following me...way too obvious! As I kept going, I saw a lean familiar figure coming towards me... actually two familiar figures as I saw a girl behind him.
They saw me and stopped, looking at me a little hesitantly. They keep looking at me like they were thinking if to say hi to me or just pass by me.
Well, I dare them to ignore me!
"Hey man!" The boy smiled at me.
"Hello Nanon!" I waved back while waiting for another hi.
"Hi." Joy gave in and greeted in a low voice.
"Where are you both going?" I asked casually.
"Our class got cancelled all of the sudden so we're just walking around." Nanon answered.
"So, next class is when?" I had to ask because Rob is not around to tell me. Tsk!
"An hour later." Joy said, making a face at me. Well, I know the reason and I'm not complaining. I just nodded thinking about something... Or someone.
'Where is she?' I was thinking and as if they knew what exactly was going into my mind. Joy came forward and placed her hand on my pink jacket. How dare she touch me! I was about to slap her hand away when she whispered.
"She's not here."
I lifted my eyebrows at that. And I wanted to ask why? Is she still hurt? But I could voiced out the question cause of T-Rex of course. I clenched my fists at my sides not showing my true feelings. I don't want to give him anything to report back to my half brother, Enzo.
"Well, I don't know why but your outfit reminds me of a song. What was that, Joy?" Nanon said while giving a secret signal to his friend.
Damn with the secret, I know he was trying to change the topic.
"I don't know..." Joy said finally, "See you later, barbie boy." She patted my shoulder and took a step to walk away. I almost dusted my shoulder off but paused…barbie boy?
Nanon smiled at me and followed his friend.
"I'm a Barbie boy, in the Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic~"
I heard Joy singing loudly for me to hear. Nanon was laughing, I turned around to glare at their stupid backs... and guess what! Bloody Rex was laughing too.
I can't believe it. He knows that Barbie song too! Now I was annoyed at the world itself.
Rob and Dane didn't come with me, I got stuck with this T-Rex who was glaring at all the students whoever came near me, like they were carrying a gun instead of books in their hands. Amy is not here for some reason and I had to wait for a whole freaking hour for the next class.
Sigh! I shouldn't have come today.
"Hey Rex! Let's go back home." I said loudly without turning back.
"Why signorino?"
"Well, my class got cancelled and I'm feeling hot."
"Only one class got cancelled." he said flatly as if he didn't want to go back too. "And take off your jacket if you're feeling hot."
"I'm tired of walking, let's just go back and come back later."
He just looked at me like I just landed in a spaceship or something.
"It'll take us an hour if we go back and come from the mansion. Let's just wait here."
Rex didn't budge.
Honestly, our annoy-ness is mutual. I don't like him and he hates me equally, period.
.
I sat on a table bench outside of my department. I took off my pink jacket and made him wear it for me. He looked at me like he prefers to get shot to death instead of wearing that. Haha, I'll do everything to make him realize that he should've listened to me when I suggested going back.
I was sitting on the bench and he put... actually threw my poor bag on the table. I shot him a glance and he took out a black mask and wore it.
Don't tell me, he's embarrassed to wear my custom made jacket when he should be honored. I took out my cellphone and started clicking his pictures from every angle while laughing out loud.
He was glaring at me madly. The veins in his stupid eyes turned red, his jaw was clenched so tightly I wondered if he was about to vomit fire. Silly T-Rex. I ignored his anger and took a few selfies with him, while making a little heart with my fingers. Frankly, I won't be surprised if he tries to murder me any minute now, considering how done he was looking with me.
Surely I am oblivious while selecting all of the pictures to send in my family group to share this kind of rare moment with my brothers, and girls and body guards. I noticed that everyone left the group and only my Erin and faithful guards remained.
I rolled my eyes at the screen. Why do they always do that? Now I have to make a new group - adding all of them again, this time I added my not-so-favorite cousins too. Then I glanced at Rex the mad Barbie and added him as well.
He also has a right to enjoy life. Hahaha

AMY's POV:
What a beautiful day!
My first class got cancelled so I went to the canteen and bought some snacks to eat and pass my time. I was eating the cookies while walking around and admiring nature.
As I was strolling...
I saw a group of friends laughing and taking pictures.
A fighting CC... pathetic.
A tree that looked taller than last month.
A bee was flying towards me but I dodged it in time.
A guy standing wearing a shocking pink leather jacket... eww.
A blonde beauty sitting and admiring his own looks... double ewww.
I kept walking...
1 step.
2 steps.
3 steps.
I was about to put a cookie in my mouth but stopped...
Hold on!
I took a few steps backwards to look.
"..."
Holy morning breeze!
I looked at him.
He looked back at me.
I blinked once.
He blinked twice.
I put that damn cookie in my mouth and crushed it between my premolars and molars.
And that was enough!
I dashed forward and freaking ran away.

Vin's POV:
I was dumbfounded. For the love of my own life, I didn't know how to react. I remained silent for a good minute.
What was that???
I turned my head a little. "Did a passing girl just moonwalk to look at me, then eat a choco-cookie and run away?" I asked just to be sure.
"I didn't get to see what kind of cookie it was but yes, that's what happened." Rex answered, way too honestly. I can tell he was holding back his laugh without even looking at him.
"Just laughed out already, don't hold back. Worse case scenario you might lose your job but yeah, go ahead and laugh." I murmur feeling irritated to hell and back. Is this what they call Karma?
Urgh! At least someone is happy at the moment.
"Yes, signorino!" He said and laughed obediently. This idiot knows who his real boss is so my halfhearted threat fell flat because Enzo won't fire him.

AMY'S POV:
Sweet heavens!
What was that, Amy!! I hit my head with my book for the hundredth time. Both Nanon and Joy looked at me amused.
We came early to this class. A few more students were sitting here and there, minding their own business. I looked at my right side at his empty chair. Where is the owner?
Sigh, I can't face him today.
I stood up at once - startling Joy who was sitting behind me - and went all the way back to the classroom, to the guy who was sitting while playing some game on his cellphone. He looked up and raised a brow in question.
"Can you switch your seat with mine?"
"For today or for forever?" He laughed a little while still playing the game.
"Whatever suits you." I mumbled.
"Where is your seat?"
"Like you already didn't know..." I just rolled my eyes and crossed my arms.
"Haha yeah, I know." He gave me a toothy smile.
"So?"
"No."
"Why?"
"Well, it's kinda like a rule in my life, not to sit with a guy who is more good looking than me."
What he said makes my half of the face twitch.
"..."
"What would I get in return?" He asked, making his voice a little raspy.
Is he trying to woo me? If yes then... hell with him.
"How about you sit there and do nothing? I'll note down the lecture for you." I proposed he just looked at me blankly then I added a little more "You don't even have to listen."
He tilted his head as if thinking.
"Well, sweet Amy! How about... you gave me the assignment that you will make for today's topic!" He bloody bargained.
"Deal!" I grinned.
He chuckled and then went to my seat. Silly!
