Rachel’s POV:
That evening while leaving school, I heard girls talking about beauty contest that was going to take place in another two weeks.
All I wanted to do was to go home right now and complete reading Julius Caesar book.
What a good plan Mark Antony had towards the assassinators!
As usual, I got my locker cleaned and walked towards the cafeteria to have a sip of coffee.
Enjoying my coffee, I sat down and heard someone call out my name.
I just turned back and saw the angel.
Announcement to ladies and gentlemen: Andrew was calling out my name.
He came closer to me and said “I want to talk to you at your house today evening. And the suspense will be broken TODAY”
Oh my god! The smirk that was on his face every time. I fell for that. It’s not only me but all the girls out there too.
He made me curious and left. Then back to my senses I could feel the heat on me because every eyes on the cafeteria was over me.
One girl from the cafeteria came to me and punched me in my gut and I fell down.
“You are not going to talk to him or see him hereafter!! Do you get me??” she said in a commanding way.
And also added “He is my man!” with gritted teeth.
I got up somehow and spoke out to her after taking some deep breath.
“Didn’t you hear that he is ONLY coming to my house?”
She came back again towards me with full anger and gave me a tight slap. She tried to punch me again but someone caught hold of her. It was the guards. She was taken to meet the Principal.
While walking back home, I thought to myself that I’m becoming bold nowadays. On thinking of this, a smirk came over my face.
I’m SECURE at home. No punches. No pains. No bullies. No bullying. My books and me ONLY.
My dad moved on and I’m only with my mom who is working and comes home late at nights.
I took my shower and I looked at me through the mirror. I recognized a handprint was on my cheek and I think it’s because the girl slapped me.
I had to do some household chores and after I completed that I heard someone knock the door.
I opened the door and saw Andrew with some sheets of paper. I was staring at the papers for some time.
“Can’t I come in now?” he asked me specifying the word can’t and now.
“Oh, please..” I said gesturing him to come in.
“Your hose is - - CLEAN” he complimented.
We both walked towards my room which was upstairs.
As soon as he entered my room, he started to search for something and finally he spoke “Don’t you have any posters on your wall like Justin Beiber, One Direction, The Wanted and others?”
“No, I don’t and –“
"Okay, my plan of changing your life says that you are going to participate in the Miss Queen of the year contest and here I have the registration form for you to participate in that!”
“Wait, I can’t do that!!” I said.
“You have to! That’s my only plan to change your life, I mean forever” he said with a puppy face. And that was the point when I accepted. We both filled the form.
He took me to a ramp and asked me to look at the way other girls walk.
Oh my god!! Their shoes were beautiful but all were high heels and I looked at my foot which was with just a canvas shoes.
I don’t like wearing heels!!

1.Determine how many times a week you eat or want to eat chocolate. It must be a number between 1 and 10, including 1 or 10.
Let's say you eat chocolate 8 times a week (we won't tell).
2.Multiply that number by 2.
8 x 2 = 16
3.Add 5 to the previous result.
16 + 5 = 21
4.Multiply that by 50.
21 x 50 = 1050
5.Add the current year (Gregorian).
1050 + 2011 = 3061
6.Subtract 250 if you've had a birthday this year. If you haven't had a birthday this year, subtract 251.
(Let's say your birthday hasn't passed yet.)
3061 - 251 = 2810
7.(Assuming you were born in 1975...)
2810 - 1975 = 835
8.You'll end up with a 3 or 4 digit number. The last two digits are your age (if you're under 10 years old there will be a zero before your age). The remaining one or two digits will be the number of times per week you eat or want chocolate (the number you specified in the first step).
8 pieces of chocolate a week, 35 years of age.

I tried to brush Dominic's hair away from his eyes. This time he let me. He had one green eye that was a completely different pattern then the black one. His eye had been replaced.
"Your lucky," I said. "I heard in 3017 they couldn't do that." I continued. "you started being able to in 3018."
"I'm not lucky." He said,"it could have just not happened."
"What did happen?"
"It's a long story. You wouldn't like it anyway."
"No I really would."
"No. I don't want to talk about it."
"Ok. You can tell me if you ever want to."
"Ok. Well I won't."
