Eternal Love - Uncover the Secret Part 1

"Alexis, shall we go shopping at the newly-opened shopping mall located just a few streets away from Kalton? I know this is kind of impromptu, but I can lend you cash if you want to accompany me. Window-shopping could be an alternative, if you prefer to look at things rather than possessing them," Jasmine asked.

Both Jasmine and Alexis are classmates but with contrasting personalities. Jasmine is a girl who idles her time away at shopping malls, nail parlours or salons instead of spending the time at home studying. Although she is just a plain Jane, with no exceptional good looks that the opposite gender will stare and admire at, she claims to be the belle of the school, much to the disgust of her classmates. On the other hand, Alexis is an industrious student who will pay attention and pen down whatever the teacher has said during lessons. She may appear quiet in class, but Alexis has earned the respect of her fellow peers through her commitment and dedication to be an excellent student and friend who will not hesitate to help those in need. That could be the main reason as to why Jasmine is languishing at the bottom of the performance charts while Alexis continues to stamp her dominance at the top of the charts.

"Sorry, Jasmine. My schedule is packed. Some other time, hopefully," Alexis answered as she concentrated on packing her bag. Shrugging her shoulders and mumbling under her breath, Jasmine walked away and out of the classroom.

Grabbing her bag, Alexis dashed out of the classroom.

"She is queer. Going home straight after school everyday," some classmates who had witnessed her quick exit murmured.

"Let us tail her," a curious yet suspicious classmate suggested as a few nodded in agreement. Grabbing their belongings, they rushed out of the classroom and followed Alexis secretly. Alexis could sense her classmates following her, but decided not to shake them off as that would make her more suspicious.

"Come on, I know where you guys are hiding. Your tailing skills are incredibly lousy that you will be fired on your first day as a private investigator," Alexis exclaimed as she stared at a lamp post a few feet from where she was at.

Her classmates knew their attempt at tailing Alexis had failed. Instead of showing their faces, they scootered off in various directions but was stopped in their tracks by Alexis who promised to tell them the reason behind her quick disappearance from school everyday.
