In the blink of an eye, the short summer vacation has ended. In the two months that there was no class, the most productive person was those who worked. Dominic earned a lot as well as his three other friends. Just like him, Luiz got so much money from his modeling as well.

  Not only that, as soon as the classes resume, many students knew him and lots of women like to get his autograph. And the moment he stepped inside the school campus, he was surrounded with students.

  "Did a celebrity enroll in our school?" a male student asked to one of his classmates when he saw the commotion at the gate.

  "I'm not sure if we should call him a celebrity but I heard that a model who got famous recently has enrolled to our school."

  "I see. It must be hard being a model and a student at the same time."

  They just ignored it and continued walking. They were the kind of students who didn't care about others business and just proceed with their own lives and matters.

  "Tsk! What a famewhore!"

  "I know, right! And to think, he's just a small-time model."

  "He really thinks of him as a big shot."

  "Ha! Let's see if he can survive the modeling industry and pass his subjects at the same time. I heard he's from the engineering department."

  "Whatever. I'll be waiting for his downfall."

  Students like them were the jealous type. They hated it when others were more successful than them. They have what Filipinos called crab-mentality. It's a trait that when someone is getting higher than the other, those at the lower level will drag him back. These disgusting people should be avoided or you will be dragged down by them.

  But even though you try to avoid them, these people will always be looking over your actions, waiting for you to fail.

  In the middle of the crowd, Luiz was signing so many magazines and shirts. He kept a smile on his face and he was really happy with the attention but he also remembered his sister's words. He cannot let his fame get to his head.

  "I'm not really that famous but I am thankful for everyone who supported me. At the same time, it's the first day of class and we need to focus on our studies. How about we end it here and those who didn't get any autograph, you can find me in the second floor of the library during ten in the morning or at three in the afternoon. Of course, you cannot make a ruckus there. Just silently give your items to me and I'll sign it. If you want to take pictures, I am free during lunch."

  "Okay, Luiz."

  "We understood."

  "We'll be there." As soon as the students dispersed, Luiz breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk towards his department with the two bodyguards.

  "So, ten in the morning and three in the afternoon is for autograph. Lunch is for picture taking. But let's give our idol thirty minutes to eat before we disturb him. Understood?" This message popped inside the group chat that his fans made and they all gave their thumbs up in agreement.

  "But wait, where will he take his lunch? Some students take their lunch in the cafeteria but some of them will bring their own lunch and some will eat outside. So, where will we find him?"

  "Let's ask in the library at ten in the morning."

  Thus; the fans all reached an agreement and they were really matured to understand their male idol. Luiz didn't know about this but he was thankful that they weren't the forceful type of fans.

  "Brother Luiz!" a cute voice sounded from behind him and when Luiz turned around, he saw Jade running towards him with a young man following behind her. "Brother Luiz! I am so glad that you make it here."

  The students looked at Luiz and looked to Jade and Ethan. Before Luiz came, these two children were famous in Trine Elite University. Not just inside their campus but many professors from other university envied Trine for having these excellent students. And now, looking at these two children who took the initiative to talk to Luiz, they already have a feeling that he's not a simple person either.

  "Good morning, Jade." Luiz greeted her and gave her a hug. "How's your summer vacation?"

  "It was fun. I got to visit a lot of place and I got to play with Ethan. Oh! It's very rude of me. Let me introduce Ethan to you." Jade took a step back and linked her arms with Ethan's arms. "This is my best friend, Ethan. He's 12 years old and is already in 9th grade."

  Ethan reached out his hand like a proper gentleman and Luiz took it for a handshake. "Nice to meet you. I'm Luiz."

  "Nice to meet you, too." Ethan smiled brightly and many students were charmed by his smile but this little kid, he never gave a damn with those other women. He only got Jade in his heart and mind.

  Just as they were talking, another lady arrived and this one made Luiz's heart flutter. It was Clarisse.

  "Good morning." She spoke softly but with confidence. She was very different to how she was back in high school. She even stopped wearing her fake spectacles.

  "Good morning." Luiz greeted her back and smiled at her. "Did your father send you here?"

  "Do you think he will? He never wanted me to become a doctor."

  "Right. It must be your driver again."

  "Well, it's fine as long as he allows me to do whatever I want." Clarisse responded before shifting her eyes to the two little children. "You must be Jade, right? Luiz talked about you a lot of times because you're smarter than him."

  "Ah? I'm just so-so." Jade mumbled shyly. "This is my friend, Ethan."

  "Hello, Ethan." Clarisse greeted them with a bright smile. Her eyes also curved into a crescent moon when she smiled. She's got dimples as well. Jade was looking at her with amazement. She has seen a lot of pretty women but the woman in front of her has different kind of beauty, too. "I'm Clarisse."

  "You're Clarisse?!" Jade blurted out and forgot to cover up her surprise. When she realized it, she covered her mouth instantly. "Sorry, I just remembered how happy brother Luiz when he talks about you. Well, we won't take so much of your time now." Jade pulled Ethan and they walked away in a hurry.

  Luiz could only shake his head? while watching the two little figures leave.
