CHAPTER 4 - Why should I?

I finally got to see 'my childhood friends'. As they gave me curious looks, I examined each one of them.

First it was Irina, she is really beautiful. She has long blonde hair, green eyes and cherry colored lips. Her body has beautiful curves and she has an above average chest.

Next was Jay. This bastard is the typical hero of an adventure story. Jay has brown hair and light eyes, his face is perfect, I can't see a spot.

And finally, Ana. She's a redhead, I particularly like this type of woman, and her hair is short to her shoulders. What caught my attention the most were his blue eyes. As for her body, she's thin and her breasts don't stand out like Irina's.

When I finished analyzing each one of them, Alice walked past me and said.

"What are you doing? Lock the door."

The house key was with me, I ended up taking it on impulse.

I turned around and stuck the key in the lock. Even if my father is at home, it's good to lock it as a precaution.

"This is your boyfriend, Alice? By the way, where's Rick?"

I could hear Ana's voice behind me.

"I would never date someone like him. Which, by the way, is Rick himself." Alice said.

I finished locking the door and turned around. All three were looking at me, I looked at each of them too.

The expression of the three was something I couldn't define, it seemed that each one was absorbing Alice's words.

The first to react was Ana.

"WHAT?"

She came to me and, as she approached, pinched my cheeks. Incredulous, she asked.

"Are you really Rick? Are you so different? What happened to you?"

Irina and Jay finally absorbed Alice's speech as well.

"I do not believe." Jay said.

I looked at Irina, she didn't change her expression. But I could see the amazement in her eyes.

I think in her mind, if she reacted like Ana, my dog ​​level would go up.

Well, old Rick was a dog who chased her all his life. Now that I'm here, things are going to be very different.

"Ana, I know you have a lot of doubts, but we need to go if we're not going to be late." I said.

Ana stopped squeezing my cheek and agreed with my line. Finally, I managed to leave the house.

As I approached them, Jay looked at me and said.

"The ugly duckling disappeared on vacation and a swan came back. What the hell happened?"

"It's none of your business." I said and started walking.

Jay was shocked. I believe he never expected me to speak to him that way.

Irina came to my side to hand me her bag. This seemed a natural thing to her.

"Which?" I asked.

"For you to carry." She said.

I get it. This was something old Rick used to do.

"Are you crippled? Or do you have any injuries?" I asked.

Irina made a confused face and replied.

"Not."

"So why should I? Carry it yourself." I said.

This time, Irina showed a reaction. She was shocked by my speech, the Rick she knew would have gladly carried. Ana, Jay and Alice were also surprised by my speech.

I ignored everyone and started walking towards the school.

Suddenly Alice grabbed my arm and pulled me down. My body leaned in a little, which allowed her to whisper in my ear.

"What the hell happened to you?"

"No big deal, I just decided I won't be a dog from now on." I said.

"I liked that. You're not being a loser anymore." Alice said smiling.

I sighed and kept walking. My three friends came right behind me.

It was a 15 minute walk. On the way Ana filled me with questions. I gave her empty answers.

Upon arriving at the school, all students gathered for a ceremony to start the school year. The only part I paid attention to was when they announced the student council president.

What caught my attention was her beauty, even being far away her beauty stood out.

In my past life, I was involved in some relationships, but I was never able to appreciate them in my youth.

In this world, I intend to win some women and Julia has just joined that list. Irina and Ana too.

Irina didn't do anything wrong with old Rick, it's normal for a relationship to be bad when it's forced. Because of that, I'm going to make her fall in love with me.

As for Ana, I think she's beautiful. Also, I plan to steal it from Jay.

In the future they will get married, but before that Ana will go through many things. Jay is popular with the girls, this will obviously make her very jealous. I will take advantage of this.

The ceremony finally came to an end. Happily or unfortunately, I stayed in the same classroom as my childhood friends.

All students already have their places defined, mine was in the corner of the room and beside the window. I sat in my chair and waited in silence.

Some students who knew each other were already interacting with each other. But it is at lunchtime that the groups are defined.

A short time later, the teacher entered the room, behind her was a beautiful girl with black hair, it was Julia.

I was surprised to hear that she is in the same room as me.

Also, another surprise was the teacher who entered.

What world is this? There is a bizarre concentration of beautiful women in one place.

While I was lost in thought, Julia walked over and sat down beside me. Basically, I won the lottery, the woman I thought I would have a hard time contacting was my wallet neighbor.

I avoided talking to her at first, I don't want to sound like those guys who start talking just because she's a beautiful woman.

"Hello"

Surprisingly, it was Julia who spoke to me first.

"Hi"

"Your name is Richard, right?" She asked.

"Yeah, call me Rick. Everyone calls me that."

I didn't think it was strange that she knew my name, there's a sheet on the door with the names indicating the places. Julia, when she looked at her seat, must have seen my name on the desk beside her.

If I had done the same, I wouldn't have been surprised to learn that she was my wallet neighbor.

"Nice to meet you Rick. My name is Julia."

She held out her hand in a squeeze. I squeezed his hand, felt the smoothness of his skin, it felt like silk.

"I know, I heard your speech, Madam President. And it's a pleasure." I said.

"I'm in your care, neighbor."

"Equally."

Suddenly, I felt several murderous auras around. I looked away from Julia and looked around the room, I could see several boys looking at me with hate.

On second thought, Julia is also considered one of the three beautiful girls at school.

I get it. This is jealousy because I'm sitting next to her

I let go of Julia's hand, finding it interesting that her expression barely changed. I think it's one of the qualities of a leader not to show emotions.

She is perfect for the position of student council president.

Julia will be a difficult person to win over.

"Okay, class. Everyone be silent."

The class immediately fell silent.

"I'm Olivia, I'll be the math teacher in charge of the third year."

Upon hearing her name, a memory of old Rick came to mind.

Olivia was killed by a physical education teacher from another school.

The professor had his confession rejected by Olivia. Dissatisfied, he went to her house to try to convince her to accept his love.

Olivia denied it and started a fight outside the apartment with the man. This one, freaked out and pulled a knife, so Oliva was killed.

After he was arrested, tests indicated he was under the influence of drugs. A promising young teacher like her died. That marked old Rick, he liked her classes.

At the end of the memory, I smiled. The reason was obvious, I can prevent Oliva's death.
