A Love Story : The Beginning

Let me tell you all a story. A story between a boy and a girl (duh) who never ever thought they could be together. It was what people call... a love story.

There was a boy named Zas, who was just an ordinary primary school student. Chubby and round with squinty little eyes. Many of his friends thought he was Chinese when he was in fact Malay. One day during recess, he was running around when he suddenly tripped and fell. How embarrassing it was for Zas. As he looked up, he saw a girl standing in front of him. It was Neey from the next class. Zas' face was red as Neey laughed and laughed at the poor little boy. Zas stood up and ran as fast as he could to get away from the laughing. Little did Zas and Neey know that their paths would cross again one day...

Zas had become what every student wanted to be. An outstanding prefect, he always got straight A's in class and he finally lost all that weight. Many teachers praised and talked about Zas. But there was one teacher which praised him more than any other teacher. It was Mrs. Hamlas. She was Zas' teacher during his first year in high school. One day, Mrs. Hamlas asked everyone in the classroom "Who wants to marry Zas? You know, some families would pay money to marry their daughter with Zas" and the classroom laughed. Zas just smiled with a face as red as a fire engine. Little did Mrs. Hamlas and Zas know that what Mrs. Hamlas said that day would determine Zas' future...

Zas was at school. He was walking around when he met Mrs. Hamlas. Zas greeted his teacher as he always did. But this time, Mrs. Hamlas had some company. Behind Mrs. Hamlas was a sweet girl, hiding behind her mother. Zas was awestruck with her beauty. He almost didn't hear Mrs. Hamlas say "Zas, don't you remember Neey? From primary school?". Zas stood silently as he admired the beauty that was in front of his eyes. They walked straight past them. It then occured to Zas that Neey was studying at a different school since he never saw Neey before in his school. Neey teasingly glanced at Zas for a fraction of a second before disappearing behind a wall. Luckily for Zas, Neey had a younger sister, Inah who was at the same school as Zas. He immediately contacted Inah and asked her for her sister's phone number. That was just the beginning...
