"So, this is the end?" asks a tall and well built boy.
"I'm afraid so. You can't come with me and I can't stay here," replies the red head girl infront of the boy.
"I can't believe this. I spent 1 year with you, I was so damn happy, why does it have to end? Tell me, why?" asks the blond boy holding his girlfriend in his arms.
"I'm sorry, Haz. But I think you know why. Are you sure you can't come with me?" asks the girl looking in the eyes of her boyfriend.
"Oh Maria, If I could, I would. But my life is here, I can't leave it and go away," replies Haz with sadness in his eyes.
"Haz, you are 16 years old but you just sounded like a 30 year old. I understand what you mean, so don't worry," says Maria.
%The Gate 51 is now open, the passengers are asked to embark immediately%
"That's your flight, Maria," says Haz looking at Maria with deep sad eyes.
"I'll miss you, Haz. I love you!" says Maria with tears in her eyes.
"I'll miss you too, my devil!" replies Haz with a smile. He love to call her devil because of her red hair, and Maria appreciates this little nick.
"Good Bye!" says Maria before kissing her boyfriend.
"Good Bye..." replies Haz before kissing back.
They hug one last time, then Maria heads towards the Gate 51, tears are running down her cheeks. Haz watch her go, with a strange feeling that he'll never see her again.
"Is everything all right, dear?" asks Maria's mother, in the plane.
"Not really, I think I just broke up with Haz. I'm so sad, mom!" replies Maria.
"Oh my little heart, don't worry, it'll take time but the pain will go away.
"I loved him so much..." says Maria in her mind while looking at the airport.
%Ladies and gentlemen, we'll soon take off for 'Sunrise Valley'. We hope that you'll enjoy the flight%

The first day of college has started, it's the 2nd January of the year 2000. Shawn Rulin arrives on his bicycle. He takes off his helmet and admires the college. He has a lot of hopes. He puts his bicycle in the 'bike-parking' and then heads to the main entrance door.
A small 4X4 stops infront of the stairs which lead to the main door, Jessica jumps out of it. She approaches the driver.
"Thanks a lot Ryde, you're a nice guy," says Jessica after kissing the 20 year old man. Then the latter goes away.
Monica and Kristine approaches Jessica.
"Always asking for a lift, huh?" asks Kristine with a smile.
"You know how she is, the Queen Jessica would never travel by the school bus. It's way too humiliating, right?" asks Monica with a smile.
"Very funny, Monica. Well, let's get going, shall we?" asks Jessica who changes the subject.
A car stops at the same place where the 4X4 stopped. Taylor gets out of it. He approaches the driver seat, where his father was.
"My boy, don't forget your promise, okay?" demands the father.
"I won't, I promise!" replies the boy.
"Sweet heart, please don't get in any trouble. All right?" demands the mother this time.
"Mommy! I promised!!" replies Taylor who's tired of hearing the same things.
"All right then, dear. Have a nice day!" says Taylor's mother.
Taylor goes to his mother's seat(by walking around the car) and kisses her good bye. The car then goes away as Taylor walk towards the school entrance.
A boy is walking towards the college. It's Michael. He arrives infront of the stairs. He then see a rock lying on the ground. He picks it up and using his power, he crushes it. It's now in dust, he blows it off. He is so mad at Jessica for what she did to him. He thought about it all night and he came to the conclusion that it'll not be fair if she doesn't suffer too. He then climbs up the stairs.
"She'll have to pay. I'll make her pay!" says Michael in his mind.
Two students arrive infront of the stairs. Craig and Brittany. They are holding hands and smiling very brightly. They look very happy together. They had some problems to face before, though, and one of them is called Monica. She nearly made them break up but she didn't succeed.
"Oh Craig, I hope we'll be like this forever," says Brittany with a smile.
"Brit, it'll always be like this, I promise," replies Craig before giving his girlfriend a long and passionate kiss.
Then they climb the stairs and enter 'Sunrise High'.

"Can you believe it? The holidays are over now, it was real short!" sighs Brittany.
"Time passes so quickly, you're right. But, we are together, it's the most important, right?" says Craig with a smile while passing his hand on Brittany's face.
"Aw, Craig!" exlaims Brittany before giving him a big kiss on his lips.
"I got to go to the toilets, it's quite urgent," says Craig with a smile.
"Okay, my love! But don't be too long, all right?" asks Brittany with a smile.
Craig goes away. Brittany looks around, wondering what will happen during this year, if it's going to be a good and happy one or a bad and sad one. Then suddenly, a finger taps her left shoulder. Brittany turns around.
"Oh Monica!" says Brittany with a surprised tone.
"Hello Brit!" replies Monica.
There's a moment of silence.
"So, you're ready for another year?" asks Brittany with a little smile.
"Are you happy?" asks Monica as reply.
Brittany is quite surprised by this question.
"What?" asks Brittany.
"Are you happy?" re-asks Monica.
"If I'm happy? You mean with Craig?" asks Brittany back.
"Exactly, so are you happy?" asks Monica again.
There's a moment of silence. Just as Brittany was going to reply, Craig returns.
"What are you doing here?" asks Craig coldly.
"What's your problem??" replies Monica with an angry tone.
"You!" exclaims Craig.
Without replying back, Monica goes away.
"She's never going to leave us alone I think," says Craig with a sigh.
Brittany turns around and see Monica staring at her and the latter's question comes back to her mind, "Are you happy with Craig?" and Brittany is not sure of the answer.

Kristine and Jessica are standing in the 'open space'. The 'open space' is the part of the Cafeteria where the students drink or eat if there's no place to sit. But as most of the students have their lunch in the college garden, it's rare that the Cafeteria is full.
"This place sure hasn't change a bit. Hey, you remember the party in the old manison we went during the holidays?" asks Kristine with a bright smile.
"Yeah, I remember, it was really fun!" replies Jessica with a smile.
"Are you going to be all right?" asks Kristine.
"You mean, Michael?" replies Jessica while looking at the floor.
"Yeah, You told me you loved him, what happened?" asks Kristine.
"You know, I'm gonna tell you something. Guys take one minute to have a crush on us, they take one hour to like us and one day to love us. But, they take one second to dump us!" replies Jessica.
"Oh Jess, c'mon. Maybe if you give him another chance..." says Kristine.
"No! He got his chance but he didn't want to keep it, too bad for him!" says Jessica back, interrupting her friend.
"You're so stubborn sometimes!" says Kristine with a smile.
Jessica smiles but it changes when she suddenly see Michael. The latter stares at her for a second with an evil look then he goes away. Jessica sighs. Kristine looks at her friend with compassion.

[1st floor corridor]
Shawn is walking in the corridor towards his 'Resgistration Class', where is marked his presence. It's also there that he'll meet his classmates and be given his 'Time Table', which is a table for 'when he has classes and in which rooms'.
As he's walking, he all of a sudden bump into someone who came out of a room he(Shawn) was passing by(I hope you understood what I wrote, sorry if you didn't! LOL)
"Oh I'm sorry!" says Shawn to the boy.
"It's okay, no big damage," replies the boy.
Suddenly the two of them realizes something.
"Shawn? Shawn Rulin?" asks the boy.
"Yeah, and you are... oh my god!! Taylor, Taylor Hill!" replies Shawn.
The two boys hug and then smile at each other.
"Oh my, it's been a while, how are you?" asks Taylor.
"I'm all right, and you?" replies Shawn.
"I'm ok too. Geez, I can't believe it!" says Taylor.
"What happened? Last year you moved out without even telling me, your best friend. Am I still your best friend? When did you moved back in? Where do you live now? Oh god, I'm so glad you returned!" says Shawn with tears almost coming to his eyes.
Seeing this, Taylor gives him another hug.
"I'm so sorry Shawn, I should have told you, I know. But I didn't want to tell you good bye, it would have been too painful. So, you missed me? And yeah, you're still my best friend. I returned one week ago and now I live near Gararough Garden. But I'll return to my old house soon. And I'm sorry but I can't tell you why I went away, well, not for now. Ok?" replies Taylor.
Shawn gives Taylor a hug.
"I missed you so much, I missed our little chats in your garage, our traditional beach camping and... I missed you!" says Shawn back, still hugging Taylor.
He then stops the hug.
"Haha, if we go on hugging like that, people will ask themselves if we're not..." says Taylor smiling.
"Hehehe, you're right, sorry. So, you're in what class?" asks Shawn with a smile.
"In *Grade 4* S, and you?" replies Taylor.
"Fate is so cool sometimes, I'm in Grade 4 S too!" says Shawn back.
They both smile.
"Maybe we could chat longer during lunch time, all right?" asks Taylor.
"All right!" replies Shawn with a smile.

Kristine and Monica are heading towards their classes, Grade 4 S for Kristine and Grade 4 T for Monica.
"Kristine, have you ever loved someone so much than even after he ignores you or is even cold with you, you still want to be with him?" asks Monica.
"Monica, I know who's your someone and here's my advice. As your 'someone' is with someone else, you should forget about it or at least, try to. I know it's hard to forget someone you love, but you must try or else you'll go on suffering," replies Kristine with concern for her friend.
"It's so hard, Kristine, it's so hard to forget. I don't know if I'll be able to one day but for now, I'm still in love and I won't give up!" says Monica with determination in her voice.
"You and Jessica are very weird friends. Jess ignores Michael, who loves her a lot and I'm sure she does love him too and you... it's all the opposite!" says Kristine with a smile.
Monica smiles back and they enter their respective classes.

[College Garden]
Jessica is talking to one of her friends. Then, she sees her sister walking back in the cafeteria. She had to tell her that their mother will not be at home tonight and that they could stay with one of their friends if they want to, so, she decides to catch her sister up.
Just as she was going to call her sister, she sees Michael walking towards her way so she turns around and walk in a corner. But then she realized she made a mistake, Michael wasn't coming to see her but her sister, Teri.
She approaches them but without letting the two know. Unfortunately, she can't come nearer and can't hear what the two are talking about. So she decides to watch only.
Teri and Michael are smiling and Jessica is boiling as she can't hear what they're talking about.
"I wonder what he's planning, maybe a revenge. Or he's just trying to make me jealous, yeah, that must be it. He thinks I'm going to be jealous of her? Don't make me laugh. What if it's a plan to find something bad about me? I have to know!" says Jessica to herself.
After 3 minutes of chat, Michael goes away. Jessica approaches Teri.
"Oh, Hi Jess!" says Teri with a smile.
"What did he want?" asks Jessica coldly.
"What? What are you talking about?" asks the surprised Teri.
"Don't play dumb with me, c'mon what did Michael wanted? Tell me!" orders Jessica in an angry tone.

Shawn and Taylor took seats in parallel so that they would be able to talk.
"Taylor, can I ask you something?" asks Shawn.
"Yeah, sure, what?" replies Taylor.
"Does she know you're back?" asks Shawn.
"No, not yet. When I'll see her, I'll tell her," replies Taylor.
Shawn remains silent for a moment, then he smiles.
"Why are you smiling?" asks Taylor.
"You're here, and now I feel less lonely," replies Shawn.
Taylor is speechless. He didn't know that Shawn had suffered so much from his abscence.
"Shawn, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. But now, I'm back and we're going to be like before, I promise," says Taylor with a smile.
Shawn smiles back.
"Then, welcome back to Sunrise Valley, Taylor!" says Shawn with a smile.
"Thanks Shawn!" replies Taylor.
Suddenly a girl comes infront of Taylor and slaps him.
