Our Space To Ourselves(English Transcript)

Zoe: (narrating) You know how I always tried to find somewhere to keep to myself? Well, this is because I need the best place to write or draw. But today, I'm meeting up with my friends in my house. We are trying to find a good place around Bangkok to keep to ourselves.
Zoe got changed and met up with her friends in her living room.
Zoe: Hi guys.
Aidan: Hey.
Sheryl: Is this your condo? It looks beautiful.
Zoe: Yup, welcome to my condo.
Zoe's friends took off their shoes and Zoe's mum appeared.
Mrs. Tria: Hi.
Thaiyo: Hi Mrs. Tria.
Mrs. Tria: You brought your friends from school over? But I thought you're going to bring girls.
Zoe: I don't trust girls. For now. Guys, let's go to the computer room.
Zoe and her friends went to the computer room where Zoe does her online classes last month.
Yuto: Is this your room?
Zoe: No, my room is over there. Let's sit down.
The kids sat down on the available seats.
Zoe: Any news yet?
Sheryl: Last night, Raphael's heart started beating fast so the doctors and nurses have to do CPR on him. They are able to stabilize him. He is still in a diabetic coma.
Zoe: Okay, so nothing new.
Zoe's brother came to the room.
Yohan: Hey guys.
Zoe: Yohan, not now. We are trying to have a serious meeting.
Yohan: Really? What is it about? Where's Raphael.
Sheryl: I can handle this. I'm a big sister. Yohan, Raphael is in the hospital because he is sick. He'll be out in a few weeks now.
Yohan: What did he have?
Aidan: Type 1...
Zoe: Yohan doesn't understand anything.
Ankit: Look Yohan, it's none of your business. Please do your own stuff while the big kids do their thing.
Yohan: Okay.
Yohan left the computer room.
Sheryl: (sighs) If only we have a place to keep to ourselves without distractions. This happens all the time whenever we have a meeting.
*Flashback*
Sheryl: So, we need to-
Skyler: Hey Sheryl, can you help me with some homework?
Sheryl: Not now, Skyler.
Sheryl and Raphael were doing homework.
Sabella: Sheryl, Raphael, can you play with me?
Sheryl and Raphael: No.
Raphael: We're busy, Sabella.
Raphael and Sheryl were meeting up with the boys.
Skyler and Sabella: Play with us.
Raphael and Sheryl: No.
*End of flashback*
Zoe: I know how you feel. Hey, maybe we should find a place somewhere in Bangkok where we can find some space. Like Central World.
Aidan: What about EmQuartier? The boys and I usually hang out there.
Zoe: I haven't been there for a long time. But I think I'll agree with you. I'm going to ask my mum. You guys ask your parents.
Zoe went up to her mum who is doing her work for her online class.
Zoe: Mum, can me and my friends go to EmQuartier?
Mrs. Tria: But I need to do my online class.
Zoe: Can you at least follow? Sheryl will be in charge.
Mrs. Tria: Alright. Here's your allowance for today. In case you want to buy snacks and stuff. Here's your money for the bus and train and I'll meet you there.
Zoe: Thank you.
Zoe went back to her computer room where her friends are asking permission from their parents on the phone.
Zoe: My mum said yes.
Ankit: Us too.
Zoe: I'll go grab my things. We're going to the BRT station.
Zoe grabbed her things, put on her shoes and met her friends by the doorway. 
Zoe: Let's go?
Sheryl: Yeah.
While waiting for the lift, some random neighbor's kid saw them and gave them weird looks.
Yuto: Why do kids always give us these looks?
Zoe: I dunno, but I'm ready to bring out my sword whenever someone attacks.
Ankit: What the?
Zoe: What? It's my sword. Want me to keep it or something?
Aidan: It's fine.
Zoe kept her sword.
Sheryl: Our lift is here.
Zoe: So, this lift wanted to social distance so 3 of you must come with me.
Yuto, Thaiyo and Ankit: We will.
Aidan: Aw man.
Ankit: Deal with it, man. We've been studying in Sacred Heart for 8 years now.
Sheryl: Aidan, you're coming with me.
Zoe: Well, our lift is here to meet us at the lobby.
Zoe, Thaiyo, Yuto and Ankit entered the lift where there is social distancing.
Zoe: So, how's your day.
Ankit: We've heard that the school will open but I fear that the girls would manipulate us. Manipulate us to do stupid things. Especially the Thai side girls. Many girls in our class would be manipulated by the head teacher.
Yuto: But foreign, half foreign and non-buddhist girls are least likely to get away from her grasp.
Zoe: Did she mention anything about other boys? Besides the ones in our group?
Thaiyo: No, only girls. That means we are in big trouble. How's the alliance going?
Zoe: We barely formed because we need to wait until schools open to form the alliance. But for now, the only members are me, you, Yuto, Ankit, Raphael, Aidan and Sheryl.
Ankit: Masks on, we're almost there.
The veteran students put their masks on and went out of the lift while waiting for Aidan and Sheryl. They soon arrived.
Zoe: What took you so long?
Aidan: Some kids needed to go to school.
Yuto: I thought it is a public holiday today.
Zoe: There are many kids here who study in an international school so I may or may not be the only kid to be studying in a convent school.
Sheryl: Alright, then let's go.
The kids went out of the lobby and crossed the street in order to go to the BRT station.
Yuto: So how do we get to the BRT?
Zoe: Follow me, we need to go through the mall which is connected to my condo.
Aidan: You're condo looks cool.
Zoe: Thank you.
While walking, Thaiyo asked a question to Zoe.
Thaiyo: Which way do we go?
Zoe: Left, it's the quickest shortcut to the BRT.
Thaiyo: Didn't know there's a 7 Eleven here.
Zoe: There actually is.
They went out of the mall. There is a clear sky with no planes flying around. The kids went to the BRT station to buy tickets for the bus.
Ankit: Where are we stopping?
Zoe: Sathorn station.
After getting the tickets, the kids waited for the bus and took off their masks.
Thaiyo: When is our next bus?
Zoe: I dunno, but it's going to take a while. Lockdown had just been lifted but the government still made us wear masks.
The bus arrived but some seats are not available because of social distancing. Also, there's no one in the bus so the kids can have space to themselves.
Sheryl: Weird, there's no one here and lockdown had just been lifted. Also, we're still supposed to go social distancing.
Zoe: Because we're still unsure if Thailand had contained the virus. Maybe next month we'll know if we had contained the virus and that we're free again. We can even travel again. I wonder where we will go next.
Aidan: Boston?
Yuto: Tokyo?
Ankit: Mumbai?
Zoe: Probably Manila?
Sheryl: Hong Kong, I guess.
Zoe: I dunno, maybe when there is the right time.
Because there are no other passengers besides the kids, they soon arrived at Sathorn station. 
Zoe: Aidan, do you know how to get from here to the station where EmQuartier is?
Aidan: Can you get your phone out, please?
Zoe took out her phone and opened Google Maps.
Aidan: First, we need to make a stopover at Siam to interchange to Sukhumvit Line. Then, we take our next train to Phrom Phong station. 
Zoe: Wow, can't believe you still know this. Even if we haven't been there for 2 months.
Ankit: Then let's go. There's not much people here.
The kids walked towards the train station and got tickets. They are currently waiting for their train.
Aidan: So, how long will this take?
Zoe: It'll be quick because there is literally not much people here.
Yuto: Yeah, because of the corona.
Sheryl: I really hope Raphael will be okay.
Zoe: He will be okay, Sheryl. We're going to have a meeting in EmQuartier and our parents will follow. 
The train arrived and the kids hopped in. They sat down on the available seats because of social distancing.
Zoe: I'm glad we're keeping space to ourselves. Even if people are giving us dirty looks because we're foreign.
Sheryl: It can't be obvious we're foreign, we Asians.
Aidan: What about me.
Sheryl: Nevermind.
Yuto: So, we need to figure out what is the head teacher planning next because we're outside school.
Zoe: It can't be possible, students are doing online classes now.
Thaiyo: I know, maybe it's manipulation. I mean, only the ones in the Thai side and not the ones in EP. Do you know what levels does she teach?
Sheryl: She teaches Mathayom 4-6. She is able to manipulate those from these levels because she usually teaches them.
Zoe: Then why is she able to manipulate students from Mathayom 1-3?
Sheryl: No idea.
Aidan: Maybe she's a hacker. She has the ability to manipulate different students from the entire school. But those who are not 100% Thai, buddhist or girls are able to resist her grasp. This is so that she could bring our English program down.
Yuto: Does that mean we're able to resist her grasp?
Aidan: Yes.
Zoe: Wait a second, when did this first happen?
Aidan: It was during last year's line up routine. Since the first day of Semester 2 while everyone in the English program and the Thai side primary were going up to their classes. We saw everything.
*Flashback*
Head Teacher: Mathayom Students of Sacred Heart Convent, it is time we bring EP down for good. They are the most impolite students of all time. They even have dirty foreign students too. So, our goal is to bring them down. Do you hear me?
Mathayom Students: Yes Head Teacher.
Head Teacher: Good, are you ready?
Mathayom Students: Yes.
Head Teacher: Alright.
Meanwhile, the boys and Zoe were shocked about everything.
Zoe: Why would she want to bring us down?
Aidan: I dunno.
Raphael: What have we even done to make this happen?
Yuto: We did nothing and now the head teacher is going to manipulate them.
Zoe: I think she is going to track us through our ID cards. I don't want to risk myself getting manipulated. This thing is not good.
Thaiyo: I agree.
*End of flashback*
Ankit: Creepy.
Zoe: I think we're here.
The kids hopped off at Siam station. They soon went to the interchange to Sukhumvit line. They can head to Phrom Phong station via the station they're in now.
Sheryl: So where are we going?
Zoe: EmQuartier. According to Google Maps, it says that the mall is in Phrom Phong station. Let's go.
They went to the interchange and yet there's still less people. This is the best place for the kids because with not much people, no one will know about the secrets their school has been hiding.
Sheryl: So what has been going on now?
Zoe: Hmm... I hacked into the school and it says that boys, foreign students, half-foreign students, Thai-Chinese students and non-buddhist students are not affected by the manipulation.
Thaiyo: Any EP Students?
Zoe: Yes, but only the 100% Thai and buddhist girls. The boys, foreign students, half-foreign students, Thai-Chinese students and non-buddhist students are not affected. In our class, Grade 9, only 11 students are not affected.
Sheryl: Check mine.
Zoe checked Sheryl's class, Grade 11, if anyone is manipulated by the head teacher's grasp.
Zoe: It says only 2, you and Game. Mink's sister, who is in your class, is still in America so she can't get the head teacher's grasp. In fact, all students who are in a foreign exchange program aren't able to reach her grasp. I hope no one else is hearing this.
Thaiyo: I think they are. Look.
The kids looked at some people whispering to each other about what they're talking about. Since Zoe is able to read minds, she knows what the people were talking about.
Zoe: I think they really did heard us.
Aidan: What do you mean?
Zoe: They already knew how dangerous our school is and those who had memory of studying there are afraid of talking about our school. Because the new head teacher wanted to manipulate students in order to take down the English program. Why does she hate us so much?
Thaiyo: Maybe because we're disrespectful. Actually, we're not but because she thinks we're rebellious and disrespectful.
Zoe: That's not true, students studying in the English Program usually get better in English. I just don't understand why does the head teacher hate us.
The train soon arrived and the kids entered the train. They are mainly telling stories or conspiracy theories about why EP needs to be taken down.
Ankit: What about this? Maybe, she hates Chinese people and she knows that most Thai-Chinese students are in EP. Because she just wanted to get away from the corona and she knows that Chinese people have it. Maybe that's the reason.
Zoe: No, that's dumb and racist. There are other Thai-Chinese students in the Thai side too. Also, she started manipulating kids before the pandemic. Which was last year.
Ankit: Oh boy. Why can't I just think of some other conspiracy theory. All my theories are dumb.
Sheryl: They're not dumb, they just don't make any sense. Like the head teacher hating on Chinese because of the corona, she started manipulating students before the coronavirus pandemic.
Aidan: Yeah Ankit.
Ankit: Sorry.
Thaiyo: How many stations left?
Zoe: Since we've just left Siam, we have 4 stations to go.
4 stations later, the kids have arrived at their stop. They went out of the station and entered EmQuartier. Something was off once they arrived.
Zoe: Guys, I feel like someone has been following us?
Aidan: Who?
Sheryl: I believe you guys are just imagining stuff, let's head to the garden. It's upstairs.
Zoe: I know where it is. I've been here before. But can you please guide us, I kinda forgot where it is.
Sheryl: Sure, follow me.
The 14-year-olds followed Sheryl to the garden. Once they arrived, they were attacked by 3 masked meddlers. Zoe got her metal ruler out.
Zoe: Who's there?
Sheryl: What's going on?
Boy 1: We're not going to hurt you.
Aidan: Then show yourselves.
The 3 masked meddlers revealed to be the half-foreign students from Sacred Heart Convent.
Ankit: Charlie?
Zoe: Tanya? Jamie?
Jamie: Hi.
Tanya: Hi.
Charlie: Hi.
Yuto: What are you guys doing here?
Charlie: We've heard that the head teacher is going to manipulate a lot of students from our class. If you want to know, follow us to our base.
Confused, Sheryl, Ankit, Yuto, Aidan, Zoe and Thaiyo followed Charlie, Tanya and Jamie to the water garden where Charlie, Tanya and Jamie are assigning a meeting in.
Charlie: We tried to contact you through LINE or Gmail but none of you replied. So we did our only option, to get you in EmQuartier because you usually hang out there.
Thaiyo: Really?
Jamie: Yes, we heard everything. We heard about joining an alliance to save the English program.
Zoe: Did the head teacher get you guys?
Tanya: No. I've heard that the only students under her control are girls who are 100% Thai and who are buddhist. No foreigners, half foreigners, non-buddhist or boys have been affected.
Charlie: So we're wondering if we would form an alliance to save the English program.
Sheryl: Then we're in.
Tanya: Then let's see if Shion would approve.
Aidan: Who's Shion?
Shion: I'm here.
Shion appeared out of nowhere.
Zoe, Aidan, Thaiyo, Yuto, Ankit and Sheryl: (screams)
Shion: Hello.
Charlie: Heard that there's 7 of you. Where's Raphael?
Sheryl: Sick, he has type 1 diabetes. He's currently in a coma and we don't know when will he wake up.
Charlie: Geez.
Shion: Actually, I approve if we could work together and stop the head teacher from manipulating us. What do ?you say?
Everyone: Yeah.
Shion: Okay, but we want to make an organisation.
Zoe: We can't make an organisation until school opens. So it is just us.
Sheryl: Yeah. Unless we're together, we'll find ways to save EP no matter what.
Everyone: Yeah.
Tanya: Then who'll be leader?
Aidan: Zoe will, she is the smartest girl in class.
Zoe: Yeah, I'll agree with that.
Charlie: Well c'mon, let's explore.
Zoe: (narrating) We have finally decided to form an alliance. But we can't form an organisation until school opens. However, all that's important is that we will work together to stop the head teacher from ruining our and other students' lives. We have to save the English program no matter what happens. If anything goes wrong, we're here to solve it. Right here and right now.Category:Transcripts
