"Jaydene! Wait up!" Leanne called to Jay as she was going down the staircase to the canteen. "Yes, president Leanne?" Jay asked turning towards Leanne. "I need your help" Leanne said while panting because she had ran the whole block looking for Jaydene. "With what, pres?" "With the student class transfer settings" Leanne looked serious. It was like a business deal. However, Jay didn't really get the idea of the seriousness. "Why me? I thought you've got the student council to help you out?" Jay asked innocently. "Well, the seniors are on rest period because they are having their entrance exams so we're kinda short on people. And I only ask trusted people to handle this job"
Next thing Jay knew, she was in the student council office sorting out student body files and putting them according to the list prepared by Leanne. "Erm...pres, when you say 'short on people'...did you mean you've NO ONE to help you out at all?" Jay was kinda confused. "Well...." Leanne didn't know how to tell her. She felt quite embarrassed. "Err...you see. The student council and teachers agreed on me doing this troublesome job because I was late to the council meeting yesterday. I have to finish it up by today and....and I...errr...well, I have a...a date tonight. So I can't stay back too long" At this point, Leanne was blushing furiously. "You don't have to be embarrassed about it, pres. I understand. But next time, just tell me the truth, OK?" Jay looked at Leanne with a smile that means serious. "So, how come this year's arrangements are according to grades?" Jay asked Leanne. "Well, I'm not sure. I missed the whole discussion on that part. I just know that I have to arrange all these files according to this list" Leanne said still embarrassed. "I see...Is it OK if we flip through some of these files?" Jay asked as she stared into the picture of a good looking student's picture. "No, I'm sorry." Leanne said. "Okay then..." 'He is gonna be in my class anyways.'
"Thank you so much for the help today! I'll repay you! Tell me what do you want?" Leanne asked Jay while they were walking towards the school's main entrance. "Its OK. As long as I've been of good help, I'm satisfied enough" Jay said giving her usual polite smile. "You know, Jay, you're the best! Well, I gotta go now! Its already 6 o'clock! My date is at 7! Goodbye, Jay!" Leanne sped off towards her car. Jay just waved at Leanne's back. She didn't say a word to her as she was very tired. 'Caleb...interesting name...'. Jay went into her car and her driver brought her home in a hurry. "Why are you speeding, driver?" Jay asked. "I'm sorry, Young Miss, but I was ordered by your father to bring you home immediately before sun down."
As Jay stepped into the house, she could feel something wasn't right. Something is about to happen and she is sure about it. She went into her father's office and saw him with another man sitting at the sofas. Tea was served to the visitor and they were having a good laugh together. The visitor must be a friend. "Ah, Jaydene, my daughter, please come in!" Jay's father called her in. "Please don't mind me" Jay said as she stepped into the office. "Honey, please meet Mr. Garvey." "Nice to meet you, sir" "Nice to meet you too, young lady. Please meet my son as well, Larcon." Mr. Garvey introduced Lorcan who was sitting out of Jay's view. "My son has said a lot about you, young lady." "Oh, really, sir?" Jay asked in a polite yet obviously disturbed tone. "Daughter, Mr. Garvey and I have talked about things and we've decided that you and Lorcan here get married." He was beaming with joy as he said this. "I see. Do I have any say in this situation, at all? Or has the decision been confirmed?" Jay asked with a slight dissatisfaction in her voice. She noticed a grin on Lorcan's face from the corner of her eyes. Mr. Garvey and Jay's dad didn't know what to reply Jay so they just laughed it off. "Lets plan for an engagement party soon! I'm so excited! Lets do it as soon as possible!" Mr. Garvey said to Jay's dad.
When the two Garveys left, Jay went to her father's office. "Dad! You cannot do this to your family! Have you any idea how this could destroy the name of the Carys'! Do you want our name to be smeared with the Garveys'?" Jay was very upset. "Honey, I was forced into making that decision. He is the owner of the largest electrical company. They can take over our company and put us into bankruptcy!" Mr. Carys was trying to coax Jay. "Dad, Lorcan is a gigantic egoistic bastard! How can I marry a guy like that? How come I can't choose my freedom in this when Louise gets to marry anyone he wants? Isn't this bloody unfair?" Jay is almost screaming at the top of her lungs. "Honey, please bear with it for now. I'll try to get out of this, OK?" Mr. Carys was having a hard time to calm Jay down.
"What about my chance to fall in love?! To go through all those happy and sad emotions of being in love? What about my whole teenage life? Why must it be destroyed?! ARRGGHHH!!! What about that super cute guy, Caleb? I wanna get to know him more. To see if he is as good as he looks. And what about that super nice guy, Joel from dad's store? Can't I live a normal life?!" Jaydene was almost screaming at the top of her lungs as she thought of all these things. She got fed up. She turned on her stereo and went to sleep. Frustrated.
