Chapter 3: Weird

Jade's POV

I was likely ran on a marathon. My hair was disheveled and I look like I showered with my own sweat. I grab my uniform and put it in my bag and pulled out any shirt and sweatpants in my cabinet. I hastily put it on and went out. I started with a little fast pacing while combing my hair with my hands but I can't tie it up without looking at a mirror. I stopped and fortunately I saw a black tinted car parked in the side ways so I went near to it's window and start combing my hair. I'm almost tying it up but someone pushed the car door open that made me stumbled down.

"Oh shit." I cursed when I landed on my butt. It hurts.

"Stop trying to get my attention. Stop following me around." A guy said. He's wearing a black cap, black hoodie, a denim jeans and a white sneakers.

Wait! What the hell is he saying?!

"What are talking about?! I don't know you!"

"You stalker! Stop pretending!" He glared at me. This guy is insane.

"Are you crazy?! I live in here. And I really don't know you." I stood up and brushed away the dirt on my butt.

"What do you want from me? Autograph? A picture? A hug? A kiss? What?! Tell me, I'll give you then leave me alone!" He went near me and lift my chin up. Then I realized he's leaning forward, I quickly pulled back and slap his face.

"Pervert!" I yelled at him, he's shocked on what he did or what I did?

"You." His voice became deep and his eyes are on fire. I'm not intimidated by him. Something's bothering me. His facial expression seems very familiar.

He has this doe eyes, a familiar one. His lips too. Did I met him already--Oh my god!

"Leon." My mouth blurted out. It made the fire on his eyes gone and now he's walking back to his car.

"I'm not that weird." He said that made a ring on my ears. I held his shoulder and pulled him to turn around. His eyes widen for a second but vanished when he blinked.

"You're calling your own sister weird?! You're unbelievable."

"It's true she's weird and you know that, woman." He pushed me a little harder that made me stepped back. Geez! He doesn't know how to be a gentleman!

"Stop calling her weird or I'll choke you." I warned him but he just chuckled not believing what I said.

"Leon is weird. Very weird! Accept that woman." He smirked, he really need to learn his lesson now. One swift move his back made a loud thud hitting his car and my hands are on his neck.

"F-fu--ck. Ge--t o-ff me." He's struggling saying those while slapping my hands. But I don't bugde, he needs that and I hope he stop calling his sister weird after this or I'll burry him al--fucking fuck!

I jolted away from him and hugged my upper body and saw him breathing with rush but recovered fast. He faced me with a smirk plastered on his face.

"You have big and soft boobs." My blood boiled and my patience lose. It's the last straw.

"Pervert!" I shouted loudly as I kicked his little buddy with force and heard him whimper while cupping his manhood slowly crouching down on the ground. I turn my back and walked away.

"Witch!" He yelled but I only rolled my eyes and rushed to the store. This is really a bad day! He wasted my time! And I got on my work very late. I got in at four thirty but God is good, the old man isn't here but her daughter is. She's an understanding boss, that's why we like her more than the old man.

"What happened earlier?" Our boss asked while I'm unpacking a box of chips in the storage room.

"Something came up Ms. Yvette. I'm sorry. It will never happen again."

"How many times I told you Jade, just call me Yvette. I'm not used with Ms. And for what happened I hope it's not a big deal and everything is fine. It's okay if it will happen again, but not everytime. Just let me know if you have problems." She patted my back and smiled at me. She's a very nice person. I hope she'll stay here most of the time rather than her father. She went out and left me because the old man called her.

I remembered the look on the pervert's face when he cupped my--ugghh! That guy! I'll punch him on the face when we crossed paths again.

How everyone in school admire him and called him a hero, a modern Clark Kent? He doesn't fit in it. He's more likely the lost seventh member of the Six Kings. He's a pervert!

Leon didn't told me about him, are they not in good terms? Did he bully her too? And she only mentioned once that she has a sister that's really close to her. Are they three looked like a carbon copy? Because that pervert looks very much of Leon, just manly and shorter hair but all the features are same but not the personality. They are the total opposite of each other.

"There you are." Chichi popped up from nowhere.

"It's weird but, your friend Leon is outside."

"She's not weird." I rolled my eyes, why is everyone calling him that?

"I know! But it's not normal that she's wearing an orange wig right now, and her bruises are gone." She explained that made my eyes widen. I immediately run to the selling area trying to find an orange head girl but there's no one. I was about to turn around when my ears heard a commotion outside the store, then I saw a red head talking--nah it's shouting at the old man, and that gray haired shouted back. Yvette trying to calm the two but they didn't even care. I walked towards them to know what's happening, and to my surprise. She really look like Leon! Maybe it's her sister that she talked about, the girl who loves and took care of her ever since. 

"You're still banned in here! I will never let you enter my store again!" The old man said. Why is she banned in here? I started my job last year but I never know why someone is banned in this store?

"I just wanted the strawberry sandwich! This is the only store I could buy those. Let me in! I'm telling you, I'm not the one who broke those wines of yours!" She fought back. She's a fighter, like their pervert brother but she's as cute as Leon.

"I don't care!" This old man is really angry at her.

"My father gave you alot of money didn't he? It's enough to buy all those wines!" The girl said and glared at him, she folded her arms below her chest.

"Dad, let's talk about this, now." Yvette said with deep voice. She's losing her temper, I can see it. Her dad didn't wanted to but she gave him deadly glares that tame him and walk inside the store.

"Let her get what she wanted, and apologizes for what happened. I'll keep the beast in the cage." Yvette whispered to me before tailing her father.

"Uhm, let's go inside." I said awkwardly. I don't know how to invite her in after what that old man did.

"Gosh! Thank you. I need my stress reliever." She walked past me and entered the store. I tailed her but she turn to the shelves and I turned to the counter. I waited for her to finish rummaging the shelves, she put three strawberry sandwiches in the counter and a can of coke. I looked at her and smiled.

"Miss, I'm not in the mood today. Please be fast because I'm hungry."

"We're sorry for what the boss said and for not letting you in, that's why it's on the house." Her eyes widen and looked at me like I've grown two more heads.

"For real?!" I chuckled and nod. She picked everything up and went to a free table and start eating. I watched her carefully while she ate a sandwich. She looks like Leon very much. Sandwich can make them happy.

Are they triplets? They're like sharing the same age. If they were, it's really cool!

I saw the items in the shelves beside her was quite a mess, so I decided to put it in place.

"Hey. Miss--" she averted her eyes on the nameplate in my uniform.

"Jade. Thank you for this free snack." She smiled at me. I think she's in the mood right now.

"You should thank Ms. Yvette."

"Just thank her for me please." She's being too cute in front of me! I want to pinch those cheeks. Oh gosh!

"By the way, is it true that you broke wine bottles here before?" I asked. My curiosity will kill me if I wouldn't know. Is it she or Leon? Geez! It might be the pervert!

"Nah. It's not me, it's my sister. She's drunk that time." She chuckled. Oh my goodness! Sister, it's Leon!

"Can you pack this for me?" She pointed at the two sandwiches she didn't touched.

"Sure." I willingly told her and went to the counter to pulled a paper bag and when I came back, she's sitting like a princess while her phone in her ear.

"I'm at the convenience store Bunny. Yeah, yeah. I'll be there, wait for me." She stood up the same time I finished putting it the paper bag. She's about to reach it but paused.

"What did you just said? What happened to Leon?" My eyes automatically darted into her eyes, good thing she's looking at the paper bag. Her brows furrowed, something said over the phone.

"Aish! I told her to fight back, but she still didn't." She grabbed the bag and walked away but before she could exit the door I heard her voice again.

"A weirdo is always a weirdo."

Huh? She called her sister a weirdo? I thought she love her? I thought she's different from other people? But she thinks she's weird?

I thought she's a good sister but--no Jade! Don't jumped in those conclusions again. Maybe because they're just used calling her that, right?

"Penny for your million worth thoughts?" Again? Chichi always pops up from nowhere. Does she has a superpower? A teleportation? Or--

"Are you a mushroom?" She pouted and shook her head.

"No."

"A chicken?"

"Yes!" She jumped in happiness, and I just rolled my eyes. Sometimes, I just wanted to be alone than to have this side of Chichi.

Two more hours and I'm out of this. I badly want to lay on my bed and fall asleep. This day is really a long long long day. I met the Campbell triplets and they made me rode a roller coaster ride that until now, they didn't leave my mind alone. I was thinking of them until my shift ends, it made me exhausted physically and mentally. I swear that when I got home, I'll relax myself, take a hot bath and lay on the bed. Those three stress the hell out of me!

"Time to go home!" Chichi shouted and dragged me outside of the store. She live in the same building as I am and four doors away from my door that's why we go home together. It's almost midnight, and at this hour in this area it's very dangerous to walk alone. You wouldn't know if someone behind you is your future killer. Chichi pulled out her own invention 'portable light', it's a ten inches fluorescent bulb connected to a switch and a car's battery. I don't know how can she carry those all these time but she did. She switched it on and we started to walk, she looks like a walking lamp post that lighted up almost the whole street.

"No one will ever try to come near us." She said and pulled a mega phone, her brilliant idea is to shout on that thing when bad guys cornered us. I let her do what she wanted to do because if I ever object, she'll ruin my peaceful life by nonstop talking about all of her brilliant ideas.

She's the main reason why I'm always stress when I go home.
