Chapter One:
The story started in a Philosophy class. Dr. Rivero asked his class to write an essay about their philosophy in life. Terrence, who is a straight A student, got an A of course. His friend Lovely Jane, a cheer leader got an A also. Lovely Jane's bestfriend Patricia Liberty also got an A. However, there are six freshmen in the class got an F. They are Daniel, Lilet, Giselle, Maya, Fredo, and Lucia. They are freshmen who came from a small town went to a big city for college. And, this is their first day.
Daniel said, "Is this a joke?'
Dr. Rivero replied, "That is not a joke, Daniel. I think you have a big influence on your friends. I wanted the six of you go to the guidance office after class."
Lovely Jane whispered to Patricia Liberty. She said, "They are doomed." And, Patricia is just giggled. Lilet is looking at both of them and whispered to her bestfriend Giselle. She said, "I hate those girls. They are making fun of us."
Daniel stood up and talked to Dr. Rivero. He said, "I don't understand why you gave us an F. Then, we are called to guidance office for expressing our thoughts. This is lunatic. What kind of education does this university give?"
Dr. Rivero raised his tone and said, "Watch your tongue, young man. I want you to go to the dean's office. "
Daniel said, "Whaaat!"
He could not believe what is happening to him. He never called to principal's office before. As a matter of fact, he is a model student.
The six of them is helplessly went to the guidance office. Then, it is Daniel the first one to call.
Mr. Clark said, "I am very disappointed with you, young man. You have good reference from your school and wrote a beautiful essay during your application in this university. How could you write this kind of essay?"
Daniel said,"What do you want me to write? Life is full of sunshine? Gee... I thought you want me to speak out my mind."
Mrs. Clark said, "The dean wanted to see you. You can go now. And, the committee wanted to suspend you for one week for speaking with Dr. Rivero in ill manner. "
Daniel said, "But, I didn't do anything."
Then, Daniel went to the dean's office. Inside the dean's office, Dr. Rivero is also waiting. He looked sternly at him.
Dean Devitto said, "Your father is an alumni of this school and a friend of mine. I already talked to your father on phone. He already know about your suspension. This one week suspension includes a community services. You will work with the university's maintenance staff. It is a part of the disciplinary action of this school and is written in the student handbook. After leaving my office, you must sign first the apology letter to Dr. Rivero."
Daniel is very helpless when he signed the apology letter to Dr. Rivero. He signed the apology letter even it is not according to his will. After leaving the office, he went to his dormitory. He locked himself inside his room. He called his mother because he is very desperate. He said," Mom, I feel betrayed and degraded."
