The school's building was three stories high

Everyone on the schoolyard watched as Tyler climbed up the bicycle shelter

Melanie turned to his friend Josh who looked concerned

"Why aren't you telling him to stop?"

Josh just shook his head and looked down

They both knew that if Tyler decided to impress, he wouldn't give up whatever someone says

Melanie groaned and looked up at Tyler with huge eyes

She was frustrated when he climbed up the steel ladder

He finally reached the roof and climbed over

And so he stood up

Melanie gasped loudly as the children cheered

They cheered loudly

And Tyler raised an arm in victory

Melanie couldn't believe it

What if he fell?

Tyler was the only one that truly mattered to Melanie

She couldn't lose him

And so everyone's cheer got silenced down again

It was an adult's voice

Strong and worried

A Teacher

"Get down from there immediately! And who are you!?"

Melanie started panicking

She felt very uneasy

Almost nauseous

As if it was she who stood there on the roof and not Tyler

Josh went to the building and drummed on the wall, looking up

Hitting it once more, Tyler nodded at him and decided to climb down

He took the final jump down to the safe ground

Children all around Melanie looked at him in respect

The Teacher was confronting him, gently shaking his shoulders

"You're going to the principal!"

Tyler was calm

"Don't be worried. I don't go to this school. You don't have responsibility over me. I'm not your job"

The teacher looked surprised and confused

"But who are you then?"

Tyler let go from her grip and walked away

"I'm the prince of the playground"

Melanie ran as fast as she could away from the crowd

She couldn't take it anymore

Tyler quickly ran after her

Finally they would be alone
