Chapter 20 - Isn’t that the Notes Girl?

All kinds of conversation were going after the exam. It was all chaos after the teacher collected the exams and went out of the classroom . That's when I heard two boys talking :

„How was the exam"

„I ruined it, wish I had learned better „

„You say that every time „

„I know , I know I have been saying this since 7th grades , every semester was a mess . I am such a big failure . My Mom gonna kill me"

„Just chill, forget it . Wanna hit Burgers , it's Friday . They got All you can Eat on Weekends Menu"

„Yes , let's go. I need something to occupy my mind . I will learn next time"

They high fived and went outside , I guess they are going to the Burger shop. Although I am not in a position to like or dislike someone , I would not want to be in contact with these kind of persons with no ambitions . They always push the deadline to tomorrow or Next time but you know what , a famous philosopher once said , Tomorrow never comes . And after they fail they push the blame onto someone else for example like, oh yes , I ate something spicy yesterday so I couldn't learn because I had a stomachache or else I would have scored a better . Although it's not the foods problem, it's theirs only but they don't seem to notice that they are shying away from responsibilities which is making them weak inside and outside . Moreover , If somebody dares to remind them of their responsibilities , they show hate to that person. That's why I only focus on myself mostly and not care about some hypocrite people who always try to find mistakes on other people instead of improving their shortcomings .

Whereas , another conversation managed to pick my interest me a bit .

" do you know the answer to the second question . I think I got it wrong"

"That one with the strange name "Sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia"?"

"Yes , heck you even can pronounce that thing?"

"Yes , i googled it just know . It is the formal word for brain freeze. I got in wrong , I thought it mean Brain tumor in scientific language , I will make sure to remember that one "

"Nooo! I also got in wrong. That question was worth 3 points "

" it's alright, as long as can the rest of it correct "

"Wait , let me google how many People die in US of falling from bed?"

"I googled that already , it seems that 450 person die of falling from bed yearly there. Luckily I managed to guess it correctly . "

" i got that one wrong as well. I guessed the lowest amount of people in the potion given . How could you guess that one, with the highest people one, didn't you find that option ridiculous?"

"Actually No, I read in some reliable facts magazine that 45 percent of People in US believe in the existence of Angels . So it's not exaggerated to think that lot of people there die of falling from beds ."

"You are a genius , bro"

"Well, thank you "

I could already tell that the one who was passively answering would be a successful guy in the future but I am not the one to judge since I don't know him personally , his this personality could also be a fiasco and his real self is the drug dealer in the underground market . I could be a bit paranoid but thats still a possibility which I couldn't down rate . As long as I don't know what someone does when he/she is alone , I stay away from that person because only when oneself is alone can the real persona let loose. The person who is getting a good grade in school , is friendly , helpful can totally be a psycho killer running amok when he is alone . So I always be careful.

Moving aside from that , I tried to compare my answers written down with the intelligent guy one but I suddenly couldn't remember what I wrote down . It might be because I didn't think much while answering the question .

Well, it's actually to be like me to be fair , I mean, it's better to fail by not trying than failing by trying . Hold on, I might not have failed . But At least , I do not say I will do it tomorrow or make other nonsensical promises . If I say I will do it , I do it. If I don't wanna do it , I won't do it .

So after the exam was over , school was also over . I ran towards home Because running with weights improves your speed . So I ate my lunch and started watching my TV show . I mean , it's Friday . They always got something interesting going on. Today It was the guy in one boat sailing across the ocean screaming he will be the king of the Pirates , it was very fun to watch .

As the clock hit five , I rode my bicycle towards the casino which counting the trees . I always take different routes towards my destination so I can count as many trees as possible in this small life of my mine.

" 6.160.034, 6.160.035, 6.160.036,..."

I arrived at the casino. As usual , lost like usual , to the same woman as usual and exited the casino like usual at 7 .

But today I learned something new . I am starting to get the hang of it . I lost 500 dollars less than yesterday. So it's a progress . I can't complain to this because if I improve in this steady manner , someday I will win instead of losing . So Patience .

As I drove down the dark alley , I could see no trees , so I was focused on my surroundings.

"Let me go "

I heard a sharp chilling voice from up the corner . It was the voice of a girl and for some reason this sounds sounded familiar. I drove as fast as I could and saw a group of men surrounding a cute looking girl. But

"Wait , Isn't that the Notes Girl?"
