Peter was a cheerful and diligent student. He used to be in the honor roll in his class. He makes himself busy with his academics. You will always see him with his friends. Among the students, he was a favorite. Everybody in school likes him. He was a role model. Peter was an icon in his school. Was...

That was before he changed. Nobody really knows or understands what had happened. The used-to-be smart and cheerful student had vanished. The person being envied by others is now being hated by many. He had become an enemy to the eyes of the teacher. The law-abiding student is now a number one rule breaker in the school campus. He began bullying students and for that he was also feared by many. And yet, nobody knows what had really happened.

It all started when this new girl came into the scene. She was very pretty and intelligent. She was the "perfect girl", as the guys put it. She's so perfect that even the most popular student in school, Peter, had fancied her. Her name is Maya. And lucky for Peter, they're in the same classroom.

However, its not only Peter who fancies this "perfect girl". It seems everybody in school also likes her. Even, the most notorious law breaker and the number one eacher's enemy, Franco like Maya.

Franco seems to be the most unlikeable person in the campus. He's a school bully and always gets into trouble. However, whenever Maya is around he is very nice. He is either keen to the idea that generally, girls don't like bullies or he just want to earn Maya's trust.

Franco would always find time to walk with Maya along the corridors on their way to the cafeteria. He would buy her food. Maya, however, didn't find this as an amusing idea. She would try to avoid all occasions wherein Franco would try to walk her home.

Peter, on the other hand, could not muster his confidence to approach Maya. He was very hesitant to come near her. He doesn't want to be alone with her in the same room. He would avoid circumstances where he would be talking alone with her in a long time. Peter is afraid of rejection. But, it seems fate is toying with them.

One afternoon, after the student council meeting, Peter was left alone in the student council room. He was arranging the project proposals they have. He was very busy that he didn't notice that somebody entered the room. It was Maya. Maya greeted him and asked if she could stay since it was raining really hard outside. When realizing that who the person was, he became nervous and began dropping all the things he's holding. Maya had noticed this and smiled. She asked him why he was so restless. Then, since he cannot take it anymore to hide his feelings, he told him that he really likes her. Maya laughed. She told him that the first time she entered the school, it was him, Peter, that she finds really cool. She told him that she likes him also. They talked for hours that they didn't notice it was already dark. Peter volunteered to accompany Maya on her way home. Ever since that incident an intimate closeness had developed. Peter didn't seem to be uneasy whenever Maya is around. They became really good friends (or maybe more than friends).

This closeness was noticed by Franco. And he didn't like it. He was jealous. It was enough that Peter was the school favorite, but not Maya's he said to himself. If he couldn't get Maya, nobody will. He thought of a plan.

So after school, when there are only few people left at school, he approach Maya. He said that Peter was looking for her. He said that Peter will be needing her help in the student council room. They both went to the student council room. She saw that Peter was tied up on a chair. He couldn't shout! Maya demanded an explanation but Franco was already holding a knife. Maya was hysterical. Peter was struggling to escape to help Maya. Franco grabbed her. He began kissing her all over and dropped the knife. Maya, crying and looking for a way to escape, grabbed the knife. (Peter still struggling really hard). And, while Franco was struggling to undress her, Maya stabbed him. She dropped the knife and began shouting for help. However, to stop the wailing, Franco who is still bleeding and has little strength began stabbing her at the back until she dropped dead on the floor. He lied down (still in pain) and laughed (now coughing and began vomiting blood). Peter was furious and struggled really hard to escape. He was able to cut loose and picked up the knife and stabbed Franco four more times before the door swung open. The security guard and other school personnel came in. They were stunned to see Peter holding the knife with two dead bodies around him. He was sitting, looking at the floor, speechless. They began questioning him on what happened but couldn't get straight answers.

A different story erupted among the student body. The story that he killed his two classmates spread like wild fire. People began to hate him for what had happened.

Peter is still haunted by the thought that he couldn't do anything to save Maya. He thought of himself as weak. That's why he started an image of himself as someone who everybody would fear.
