PROLOGUE

"Run! We might get caught!"

I shouted as I accelerated my run to escape the cops who were chasing me.

Earlier, someone suddenly challenged us to a nonsense fight, So we just fought because doing nothing was boring. We were just cutting in our class. Math is our subject and it really makes my head spin.

What do they get from repeatedly solving Math problems? We already have a problem in life.

Looking back, I just scratched my head when I saw that my other friends was caught. Stupid! I went even faster. I stopped when I heard something fall. Looking to the left I saw a red notebook. I looked at the source and saw it was the back of the highschool public school.

Cheap! Freakin' poor people!

I was shocked to hear the police whistle again and unconsciously grabbed the red notebook. When I saw the narrow alley, I immediately squeezed myself there.

I'm definitely the only one who didn't get caught!

I slipped in sideways and smiled when I got out and saw the wide road to our house. I immediately noticed the notebook I was holding and looked at it.

Neon Red Notebook?

I immediately threw it in the trash on the side of our gate. I playfully whistled but immediately stopped when I saw my Mommy who are raising an eyebrow at me so I ran to my room without warning.

"You little stubborn kid!"

***

"Señorito, The lunch is ready,"

I winced at the depth of Yaya Selda's grammar. I was immediately taken back by the memory of Mommy's face earlier. I immediately put on my pokemon slippers and left my tablet to open the door.

"Come on, Señorito." She smiled.

I saw her gums almost clearly visible. It's good to be clean.

I just let her hold my hand and support me. She still thinks of me as a child. Since, I was a baby, She has taken care of me and considered me as her grandchild. Tsk! I'm not a kid anymore. My junior is already big.

When I arrived at the dining table, I saw the smearing on Mommy and Daddy's face. Maliciously I sat down and immediately started eating, Totally Ignoring them.

"You're grounded, Matthan!"

"You're just in 8th grade! What kind of nonsense are you doing?"

They told me almost at the same time. I smiled sweetly at them and immediately said the magic word.

"I love you, Mom, Dad."

Mommy was about to preach me when Yaya Selda approached me from outside holding a red notebook.

W-what? A red notebook?!

"Ah, I saw it in the mail box. I think, this is yours."

I was pranked! I thought it was a trash. She gave it to me so I did nothing but accept it.

When I finished eating. I immediately went upstairs and just threw the notebook in the walk-in closet. I opened my PC and started to play. When I finished playing video games, I just lay down on the bed and stared at the ceiling of my room. This life is so boring! I've been bored here in my room before. I didn't know what to do anymore and I felt like I was going to rot here. I don't want to go out and maybe my arrears with my Daddy will increase.

I'm also tired playing video games. Just everyday!

To my chagrin, I accidentally looked in my walk-in closet. Right! The notebook. I quickly searched for it, When I found it I immediately opened it.

I didn't expect that because of that notebook, My life would have a direction.
