MISA

Lights are too bright. Screams are too loud. People's smile and disappointment can be seen through their faces.

“M4! Let's welcome our new girl group! ” Said the MC while pointing the paper he was holding to us.

Maira.

The girl group's leader and rapper. Admire by people because of her creative mind and leadership.

Mina.

The girl group's softest member and main vocal. Admire by people because of her soft yet talented voice.

Mia.

The girl group's visual and vocal. Admire by people because of her beauty inside and out. Also gave her a title “Perfect girl”.

And I. Misa.

The girl group's main dancer. Admire by people because of good heart.

And yes. We're the M4. The Magnificent 4.

It's almost 5 years since the day we debuted. And starting that day, we made history.

M4 made a lot of awards and achievements that we thought we could never have.

Adults. Teenagers. Children.

They look up to us. They idolized us. Which until now I still can't believe it. We do faced a lot of challenges back then and still ready to face more. The four of us believes that we can do everything. Face everything as long as we're together.

We're the M4 in the first place. The most known girl group around the world.

And then there's this guy.

“I told you everything already! It wasn't me! ” He explained while facing the police officer.

This tall and not that handsome guy with his brown curly hair is now facing his consequences for stealing my wallet.

"Where's my wallet!" I repeated while facing him.

I'm doing my best to hide my face to everyone inside the police station. I don't want to make a scene that can be seen online. I don't want to drag my other members to this mess.

“I told you already it wasn't me!”

I can feel my blood going higher. I don't have time for this. I just wanna have fun outside. To enjoy being a nobody but this guy just messed everything up. I just- sigh.

“Fine. Just give me my wallet back then I'll just set you free ”I suggested while holding my nose because of stress.

The guy just sigh deeply and look straight at me. “I told you already. It wasn't me. I don't have it ”.

I was about to burst out but he cut it out.

“How about this. Let's check the CCTV footage before accusing me as a criminal. How about that? " He suggested while crossing his legs in front of me and the police officer.

I smirked despite of being annoyed. What is with this guy? I hate him. The police officer sighed and started typing. We waited for awhile then he gave me a signal to show me the footage.

The police officer pointed the screen and saw one guy running. The guy that stole my wallet which I can actually say that I picked a wrong guy. As the video continue, the police officer started to change the camera view. Unfortunately, I'm actually wrong. I accused a wrong man. They just wear the same shirt and pants.

Sigh. What a mess.

I started looking at him while he's looking straight at me. I started to smile awkwardly and rubbing my head. He just gave me a deep sigh once again and started to stood up. Offering both of his wrist to remove the handcuff.

“I'm so sorry” Said I while trying to hide my face.

“Aish” the last thing he told me before he went away.

Ugh. What a day.

Since I have no money, I need to walk home. I can't call anyone because I don't want to bother them because of my stupidity. Why is this happening in the first place?

“You look depressed” said the guy from behind.

The moment I turn around, I already knew who it was. It's Leo, The first son of the famous businessman. His father is well known to be rich and intimidating. Aside from that information. Leo is also my suitor.

Leo is actually handsome yet I don't feel anything special. He might have those muscular body but it just that he is not my type. He often gave me something like flowers, chocolates and even clothes which made me uncomfortable. I do reject him many times but he wont listen.

Leo's wearing his black attire with a red tie. Holding a flower while behind him is luxurious car. I might a known person which I do claim that I'm not. I might be “famous” they say but I don't brag about money. Not like this guy in front of me.

“No. Something just happened. I'm fine ”Said I then fixed my round beige eye glasses.

“Okay then. Anyway, here a flower for you ”Leo said while giving me an awkward smile.

Before I could even reject it, he already handed me the flower. Things go so fast that I couldn't even speak.

“So? Should I drive you home? " He asked which I know I can't say no.

“No. It'a fine. I could just wa- ”before I could even finish what I'm trying to say he immediately grab my waist and open the car door.

Since I have no choice, I just went inside and shut my mouth the whole time. Leo keeps talking though. About what happen to him the whole day. I mean it's actually fine listening to someone story but hearing someone's story with so much brag and insensitive jokes are just too much. I rather hear my dog ​​bark than hearing some nonsense stories.

I pretended to be asleep so that he would stop talking. The moment the car stops, I immediately open my eyes and look outside. It's our building.

“Thank you for the free ride” Thanked I.

I was about to go outside but Leo hold my hand. I turn around and saw his serious face.

“Hey. Sorry. Uhm. You forgot the flower ”Leo said while giving me the flower.

“Oh- I'm sorry. I'm just tired and stuff ”I explained while rubbing my head.

Leo smiled and let go of me. I once thanked him and went inside the building. As soon as I went inside, I can already feel my body ache. What a stressful day. I wish I have a chance to bring back my wallet.

I pressed the elevator's 8th floor button. It's already night time so few people are left here inside the building. The moment the door opened I saw Mia in front of me.

“Oh hi Mia” I said with a weak voice.

Mia is pretty taller than me. For the first time I saw her, she is too intimidating especially her red eyes. The way she looks at you makes your body shakes but once you know her, you know how soft and cute she is.

Mia is wearing her pink t-shirt and black shorts with a sandals. Her looks tonight makes her more cuter because of her ponytail to her black hair.

“Hmm? What happened? You look so tired? ” Mia asked while touching my cheeks. Maybe I looked that tired today?

“Yeah. Things kinda sucks today but I'm fine. By the way, where are you going? " I asked before going outside the elevator.

“I just need to get something down the lobby. I ordered some bread online ”Mia explained then giggled.

“Oh- okay. I hope you'll enjoy the bread ”said I then started moving.

Before the elevator close Mia shouted “I prepared something tonight! Eat your dinner! ” Then gave me a huge smile. Such a cute baby.

I went inside the room just to see Maira and Mina watching together. They greeted “hello” on the same time that made me smile. I don't want to distract them so I just went straight to the kitchen and look for the “dinner” that Mia said. As I open the refrigerator there is a small note with my name on it. "For Misa: *"

Adorable Mia.

I sat down on a chair and placed the chocolate ice cream in front of me.

What a delicious ice cream.

As I look both Maira and Mina, I started to remember what I lost. My precious wallet with my lucky charm on it. A small piece of my dog ​​tag with the named “Armistice”.

I miss my precious dog. She's not dead or anything. Armistice is just staying home with my parents. I can't bring her here because I know I'm too busy to take good care of her.

I just wish the person who stole it will have a change of heart.

I was about to go inside my bedroom when there's someone calling me. I picked up my phone and it's Mia. I answered the phone call and miracle happened.

“Hey Misa. Someone just return your lost wallet I guess? You lost your wallet? " She giggles again.

"Really ?!" I yelled.

“Uhm yes. I'll return it to you once I go up there okay? "

“Wait. Who returned my wallet? Do you have his or her name? " I asked while shaking because of excitement.

“Well. I wasn't able to have his name but he was the one who delivered my bread so I recognized his face ”

“That's great! Is he still there? I want to thank him ”

“Well about that he already left, sorry Misa”

“No- it's fine. I just feel bad that I was not able to say thank you in person ”

“Maybe next time? Once I order again? ”

"Yeah maybe next time"

“Anyway. He's pretty cute though ”

"Shush"

Before we hang up. There's a lot of laugh.

I wish I could thank that person one day. What a miracle.
