"Are you two serious! (Emma scream) you guys had a relationship with a kiss and you guys did it".

Belle blushed, smiling. Emma never expected this would happen so fast between Belle and Jake. The girls just know Jake for like a month, she thinks. They barely saw his parents and now they are a couple, oh God after Gibson and now this.

"So you two take this relationship seriously?"

"We did". said Belle. "Are you mad at me Emma?"

"Of course not Belle. I am happy with you two. If you're happy I am happy too, both of you are my friends. At least someone could protect you from. You are the weirdest girl who had a relationship with the son of a former Miss World. Are you serious (Emma laughed so did Belle) Oh my God. This will be an epic shocking news in school, you know after Gibson they started to move on with Jake and you did it".

Belle sighs and shakes her head. "I don't know Emma. It happens so fast, so quick".

"Don't bother that Belle. This is your life now and no one will try to break you two. If they did, I would kill them!"

Emma hugs Belle. "Oh I'm happy for you Belle. You two are meant together. I think there is a reason why God made each one of you meet and don't you even care about what people say around you".

There, Emma spoke again. "You're not chasing Jake's family wealth right?"

"EMMA!"

"I'm just kidding bitch. I know you don't, not even dare you do. You barely step on the bugs".

Emma suddenly thinks about Gibson. How's the wedding going and what if he finds out Belle had a relationship with Jake.

What will happen then?

"You still hadn't figured out who this O.G was, don't you Belle".

Belle shake head. "Should we look into the library, maybe the book will give us the answer".

"It can't be from the book O.G was born Belle. This is not R.L Stine suddenly coming for real. This is your fight Belle, between this O.G and Gibson so which one you chose".

"Why should I choose something that we cannot trust? I don't care if I have to face them, I'll fight them. I don't need Jake to protect me even though we are now in a relationship. I just don't want him to get hurt because of me, I don't want people to die for me Emma".

Emma nods and understands, "Jake still doesn't know what capable Gibson and this O.G can do to him. Even me and people around you Belle. It fights and gets what they want by force and without your willing to go".

"There is no news about Gibson since, we don't know where he is".

"I know. Could he be watching".

Moments later. The delivery man came toward the girls who sat under this tree without Jake. Lunch break time in school was the best thing students could do gossiping with each other, blaming each other, bullying each other.. f*cked each other.

And possibly Jake is nowhere to be seen, Belle even looks for him around. He was barely in class with her today.

"Miss Decker?"

"Yes that is me".

"A package for you (delivery man handed the package to Belle) signed in here. Thank you. Have a nice day".

Emma and Belle watch the delivery man left then walk back to the van. Belle looked down and studied the package. "What was this?" ask Emma.

"I don't know. It feels heavy a bit". Belle unsealed the package. "It didn't sound ticking inside".

"You really think someone is trying to blow this building through you? no kidding Belle". She watches Belle shaking the package. "Don't shake like that!"

Gently Belle opened the box, it revealed a beautiful music box that was never sold in the store. This music box was unique, Belle held it in her hand.

"Wow!" Emma said.

The music box is crafted with the shape of a heart. This music box definitely cost a fortune. Belle could sell it if she wanted. She never saw a kind like this before, someone must have been ordered special just for her.

But who was it?

This music box is made of glass, not the same kind she saw at the different store who sold the music box. This music box is special, glass, limited edition she guesses.

Carefully she was not to try to break it or anything. Afraid the box could slip at her hand, she held it with two of her hands then opened the music box and the sound came on.

"The sound? (gasp) like I heard before".

Belle looks up at Emma. "My grandma used to sing this song to me when I was a child. But how is it...?"

"How what!?"

"How was this song in the music box? The song has never been released before. This song was created by my grandma. not so popular, just family songs but how...?"

Belle shakes her head. She closes the music box without waiting for the music at the end of the rhythm.

"Are you sure this is your grandma's song".

"Who has it then? This is insane, Emma. this song.. how could that be. None of my family share this unique song with others. How people just know this song".

She almost shouted. Emma calms her down. "How?"

"Shit, coincidence always happens Belle. Maybe your grandma accidentally slips the lyrics and the rhythm towards other people, or your mother accidentally reveals your family's greatest song to others who know right".

She stares at Belle. "You're just a kid, Belle. So you don't know anything could possibly happen if the song were reused by the others".

Emma's finger pointed at the music box. "But it can't be right!"

"Oh, come on, Belle. Stop worrying about the song, let your grandma make it again. What you should worry now is.. who is sending this package to you. Got any card, name on it or not".

Belle reaches the wrapping on her side. Nothing. But there's a small card attached underneath the boxes and it wrote..

𝐵𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑓𝑢𝑙 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑖𝑠ℎ 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑚𝑦 𝑑𝑒𝑎𝑟. 𝐷𝑜 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒 𝑖𝑡?

Emma snatches the card from Belle and reads it. Be careful what you wish for. "Sounds so psycho".

"Could this stranger know I'm in a relationship?"

Emma shrugged, said. "Know? this maniac knows everything about you, Belle. And I haven't seen Jake since this morning".

"Yeah. He is barely in class too".

Truth was she didn't get any text from Jake nor call. Though he had stayed away from her because of their relationship but.. what if these strangers will do something bad to Jake?

How can she save him from that?

"He didn't text me either, not even call. Do you think Jake is okay?"

"You called him then. What are you waiting for.. red carpet?"

Belle quickly reached her cell phone out from her bags. Dialing Jake's number and lucky she was, he answered her call.

Jake with his friends somewhere. Still inside the school just he was barely inside the class with her and he was sorry that happened.

He even told her that no one knows about their relationship yet which is a relief to hear that from his lips. Stay safe and stay hidden.

"Well he's fine then. Shouldn't worry about that. You two got the same classes, how did you not notice him where he went".

"I slipped out I guess".

"No. You just dumb. That is who you are Belle".

The girls laugh harder than before. Maybe she was too worried and forgot Jake was with her all this time. The couple shared the same classes and she didn't notice him where he had gone.

This is ridiculous.

"I think it is best that you and your mom went to the police station about Belle. Bring everything this maniac gives you as evidence. For protection at least. What if this stranger strikes again? what would you do to prepare yourself for the sake of your life.."
