I am busy preparing my stuff for my internship at the Westernshire Middleschool. While coming out of the house, I saw Joanne standing by at the gate; waving her arms to greet me.
--"Hey Margot! Where are you going?"--
--"To Westernshire. I should bring these things because I will start teaching tomorrow."--
--"Well, congratulations."--
--"Thank you. How about you? What are you doing here?"--
--"I am here because I want you to come with me."--
--"And why?"--
--"Let us go to the...Homecoming party?"--
--"Sorry, I am busy. Maybe next time?"--
--"Margot, come on. Let's go! Your dad is waiting for us."--
--"Please tell him I cannot attend."--
--"Margot,."-- She stared at me; begging me to come.
--"Okay fine, let's go."--
--"Alright."--
MILITARY HOME COMING.
We entered in the room, and saw many people chattering and waiting for the party to start.
--"Margot."--
--"Dad,"--
--"Thank you for coming."--
--"Yah actually Joanne forced me to be here."--
--"Oh, so you really don't want to come here."-- I just looked down. And knows he understands me.
After a couple of minute, the mcee started to talk; told a very short story about military backgrounds of the guests, and then he introduced and welcomed the armies.
The current and veteran soldiers entered the room and stood up at the stage.
--"We have these, soldiers of the past, and today's forces. They are our heroes, they are the one we should thank a lot for. They protected us from terrorism, from the people who wanted to destroy our nation. They always giving us hope. Do you agree with me?!"--
--"Yes!"-- People responded..
Let us all stand, ladies and gentlemen, let us give them around of applause please."--
*people in the room stood up; gave salute and loud applauses*

--"Stay here, and I'll be back."--
--"Okay sir,"-- Joanne replied.
--"Oh my gosh. Did you see that group of men sitting on the top of the stage?"--
--"Yes, why?"--
--"They're cool and handsome, right?"--
--"I don't think so."--
--"are not they?"--
--"No."--
--"Look. I know you do not like men, right? That is why you have no boyfriend at all."--
--"Excuse me Margot, can I take Joanne for a minute?"-- Blaise inserted.
--"Yeah, sure."-- I agreed.
I looked at my side and saw this man went near me.
--"Excuse me miss? May I know your name?"-- Then he leaned on me- gees. He's bothering me. I do not like his acts.
--"Sorry if I do not talk to strangers."--
--"Do I look like a stranger?!"--
--"Yes?Maybe?"--
--"I am a soldier! An officer.I know a lot of girls like me, but you...Pretending to be hard to get huh,"--
--"With that actions? You know what? My impression to you is exactly what you are. You are bothering me."--
He immediately held my arm tightly.
--"Hey! What are you doing?! Get off me!"--
--"Maybe if I will take you there, you can never say no."--
--"Let me go!"--
--"Is there a problem here?"-- A man inserted.
--"Hey, would you please get your colleague away from me? I swear I am not comfortable."--
--"Brother, let her go."--
Then this bastard get his hand off of me.
--"Are you happy now?"-- he said to the man and he hardly pushed his chest.
--"Do not treat women like that. If you wanted to meet them, be nice. If they do not like to talk with you, just leave them."--
--"It is not your business, dude. Tss, what's your point huh? They should like you?Instead of me?"--
--"I am not saying that. This is a party, don't ruin it."--
Then that perv suddenly hit the man's face.
Many people screamed and some of them ran out of the room..
The officers stopped the fight, they separated them and tried to keep them calm.
--"You know Margot? you are the reason why they ruined the party."-- Joanne frankly said.
--"What do you want to say?"--
--"If you did not treat the guy like that, we have--
--"Is it really okay if someone be impolite to you? Are you blaming me?"--
Joanne did not answer. I looked down at her and left.
Parking lot.
--"Margot!Margot! Are you okay?"--
I ran to dad and hugged him immediately.
-he responded.
--"Dad, I am sorry."--
--"No it is your fault."--
--"Mr. Toussaint, sir. I just want to ask if... She's okay,"--
--"Yeah, she is fine. Thank you captain."--
--"You-you're welcome sir."--
--"This is Margot, my daughter."--
--"Yeah, uhm. Are you okay now? I hope you will get better."--
--"I'm fine. thanks."--
TWO MONTHS AGO...
I parked my car two miles away from the Westernshire. When I got out, someone appeared on my sight.
--"Oh my goodness!"-- i startled.
--"Sorry if I scared you. Uhm, hi."--
I just stared at him and recognizing his face.
--"You look familiar."--
--"I guess."--
--"You. You- you are-"--
--"Julien Moulin."--
--"Captain! I -I am sorry. Wha-what are you doing here? How do you know that I will be here?"--
--"I followed?"--
--"You followed me?Why?"--
--"I just..."-- the bell rang.
--"I think I should go?"--
--"Yes you should."--
So I left him at the parking lot. I looked at him and he smiled.
*After class, the office called us for a meeting. The dean mentioned that we will have visitors from the military. They will have school projects, and they will give donations for the children; so happy to hear that.*
--"Mrs Moore!"--
--"Yes, miss Toussaint?"--
--"What I'm gonna do? The adviser of those children in Class A got sick: She called me yesterday."--
--"What did she say?"--
--"She said that I will ask you for a vacant teacher from the staff so--
--"You will take care of them, darling."--
--"But I cannot--
--"You are intern, so you have to take a responsibility. It is your practice on how to handle children, dear. Trust me, you can do it."-- She left.
Going outside of the building. Wait.. Is that-- him?
