Priscilla: Car Race, car rush

Well, on the next day, the mini concert has passed and was set to the coming Wednesday(today is Thursday), of course, the news spread like wildfire in the campus even before the union put up the advertisements for the concert. And while the concert preparation was going on, the girls didn't seem to just leave us alone and instead ask us to help them get the "tickets". Well, you know, backstage passes; UNOFFICIAL backstage passes. Looks like they don't just give up on any chance that will get them up close and personal with ENERGY.

During lunch...
"Please, Priscilla!! I know you can go in without tickets before everyone else and all the special privileges one.. Please!!" My classmate Avonne asked.
"Pleady please!!" She squealed.
"I can't, Av.. If I want to go for the concert, I need the tickets as well! I'm just like everyone else!!" I said.
"Erm, how about you tell me which hotel they are staying? Or help me get my picture with them?? I know you can one.." She pleaded.
"No, Av. I don't; alright?" I said, annoyed.
"I can't help you much." I added, and left the table.
Today didn't pass quite well. As Avonne was the super hyper type, after hearing me telling her off, she literally slumped during classes. Later, all the classes were very quiet. Even the teachers asked if she was sick.
"Pris, you give in to her lah.. The quietness is getting on my nerves.." Paul whispered to me. Paul is also my classmate, he's our class's leader.
"I'll see what I can do, ok?" I replied Paul. After that lesson I went over to Avonne and told her about it.
"I dunno what I can do but I'll try, ok? BUT no guarantee ok?" I said.
"Ok! Ok!" She squealed.
"Shhh!!" I signalled.
"Ok." She signalled an ok sign and put her finger to her lips.

I went to meet Qiu at the end of the day at Mac. I arrived there first, so as usual, I took the seat that was near the TVMobile.
"Hey!", as she walked over and we exchanged our usual greetings.
"Hello...." I said.
"How was school?", She asked.
"What do you think? What about you?", I said, signalling a hectic day.
"What do you think?", she answered, shaking my head.
"THEY ALL WANT BAKSTAGE PASSES!!!", both of us chorused at the same time, and we laughed at our own accuracy in timing.

"So, you're stuck in the same shit as me. Haha~", she said
"Aww.. Come on~ They also want to meet them in person. Like as if have tea with them.", She added.
"Serious? Its the same for my side too. How many have you gotten so far?", I asked
"2...You?" She asked.
"1... Major fan though." I said, and we started to noticed the drinks on the table.
"We could have made a fortune with these ah.." I said, mimicking a drink seller, and went;
"Lelong! Lelong! 3 for $1! 3 for $1! Come and take a look!!" I said. Qiuru laughed very hard.
"Okay, we better get on with these drinks before we go home.." I said, getting serious.

Suddenly;
"Hi.. I'm Joseph and this is Mike.", Joseph introduced.
"Yeah hi..", Qiu said, looking up.
"Can we help? I mean, there are alot of drinks to give out. So, I thought we could help out or something.", Mike offered.
"Sure..", Qiu replied.
"Delighted." I said. Soon the drinks were gone and so are the guys.
"Wanna make a move?" I asked her.
"Sure." She said and we walked down the car park in front of the atrium. Another horrible surprise awaits us. Beside my BMW was one security guard standing, as if to guard my car. Why was he doing that for?

Then I see it.
On my BMW, were notes after notes stuck between the windshield wipers and stuck fully all over the car with tape!!!!

Messages from the fanatic fans asking for information, and others asked for backstage passes and the irony is we don't even know them. What on earth is that? Did they think my car as a message board for E4? I went over to the car and the security guard came to me.

"I dunno who did it, and I tried to stop more from happening.. It's all I could do." He said.
"Thanks very much." I said. Qiuru looked in awe and picked up one note and read;
'Dear Qiuru, My name is so-and-so; from business class blah blah, attending same lecture as you. Can you be so kind to pass this card personally to Energy's Shu Wei please? I really like him very much. Thanks. Cheryne.'

"Who's she?" I said.
"Dunno. Never heard of." She replied.
"Here's another one. For you." She said.
"For me?" I said.
"Listen.." She said.

'Dear Miss Ridges, my sister is a fan of Energy but she's not a student of the school. Would you be so kind to let her into the concert next Wednesday? Thanks. Wei Rong.'
"Sounds more like his girlfriend." I said.
"AND," even before Qiu can ask me,
"I don't know him." I added.
I picked up one and looked.

"Look, this one's in for a bribe." I said, taking out the $10 bill slotted in between the note.
"This one smells nice." Qiu said. I took from her and smelt it. It smelt of lilies and jasmine.

"We need to get all of these notes off first, we can't drive home like that, can't we?" I said. We started to take off the messages one by one, and the security guard as if sensing that we need a box, came rushing over with a small carton box and also brought extra people with him as I see people came running over to us with flowers and gifts.

"This is exaggerating." I said.
"Er..." Qiuru said.
"We better hurry." I said to her.
"Don't worry, we'll handle it." One of the security guard said as he handed me the box.
"Thanks." I said.

As we continued to take out the rest of the notes, the fans came gathered around us to pass us more stuff.
"Please help me pass this cow soft toy to Niu Naiplease!!" One shouted.
"Please help me pass this..."
"Please help me pass that.." Many shouted. Through the pressure of taking down the notes and the noise, I came up with a very good idea.

"Okay! Okay! Calm down!" I addressed the crowd.
"Pris, what are you doing?" Qiu whispered to me by over my shoulder.
"You'll see." I said.

"I'll help you all to pass all whatever you want to E4, provided you help us to take down all these notes, or we can't pass all these messages on the car to them either." I said.
"Fair?" I said.
"Yeah!" All shouted.

"One rule." I said.
"DON"T SCRATCH MY CAR. AND DON'T SPOIL THE MESSAGES. IT'LL BE UNFAIR TO OTHERS." I said.
"Ok!" All shouted. I signalled to the guard to let them go ahead and all of them dropped their stuff and came over to help. It was a sight to behold. While Qiuru went round ensuring nobody scratch my car (she know it's my favourite)
"We need some more boxes." I told the security guard. He nodded and went to get more.

Soon, all the messages were off the car and into the boxes. I again tell to the fans to leave their whatever contacts taped on their gifts or flowers and I will not hold any responsibilities if the tagging come loose. Soon all the flowers and soft toys and stuff were loaded into the car boot and the back seat and we left the car park. That was one heck of a day, BUT it was just the beginning.
As we were on the road, chit-chatting in the car, talking about just now's event; I noticed quite a number of taxis or maxi cabs following behind us.
"Strange.." I said as I turned right to the highway.
"What's strange?" Qiuru asked. Then I confirmed. All the suspected vehicles were hot on our heels.
"We are being followed." I said.
"By fans." I added.

"What????" Qiuru said and turned around to look.
"Now what?" She said.
"Call Ben. Tell him to activate action 155." I said.

"Huh?" She asked.
"Don't huh, just do it. I'll explain later." I said. Qiuru immediately pick up the car phone and dial.
"Tell him we're on CTE highway, turning into PIE expressway. He'll know what to do." I added.
"Ok." Qiuru said, sensing the urgency. As we finally turned into Ridges knoll, (the extended gateway) it's obvious now that they are tailing us, cause public never uses that road unless coming or going out from our house.
From Ridges knoll, another few minutes of drive, past the seaside and into the tree-lined road and the gate appeared in view with Jimmy and Johnnie standing by to close the opened gate. as we zoom past the gate, behind us, they ran immediately to closed the gate manually as we finally slowed down toward our house.

"Cool!" Qiuru shouted as she saw all the people trapped just outside the gate.
"So this is plan 155.. I see." She said.
"Of course man, with us having such backgrounds, we need more than just security guards." I said.

"Good day, Miss Priscilla, Miss Autumn." Ben came out to greet us.
"Ben," I called.
"Please get a few people to unload the stuff that's on the car and bring them up to the grand hall." I said.
"Yes, Miss." He replied.
"What a day." I said, slumped onto the sofa.
"Yeah." Qiuru did the same.
"What an exciting day.." She said, looking at me.
