Chapter 6: The girl who always pack a lunch box for Samuel

"Haven't you heard? That guy Samuel from class 1-C!" Bella starts gossiping with other club members.

Yuri were eating ice cream while sitting on the window "What about him?" she asked.

Luna was just scrolling from her phone.

Jae were listening to a music through his earphone but but currently peeking to Luna's phone.

Ethan was obviously only looking to Luna's face.

Amber and Seven looks problematic about something.

"There were a rumor that he stop being a gangster anymore, and become more a student like" Bella said but she doesn't believe it herself, but suddenly Amber and Seven agreed. "yeah… and he clearly get the highest score in quiz between the tree of us?!" Amber hold her head as if she will go crazy. Amber, Bella and Yuri were looking at Seven like he was about to say something.

"I-it's been 3 weeks… three weeks straight from now, there's a lunch box always appearing to his desk with the sticky letter Jessie" Seven hold his hand to take a grip on himself.

"sounds a girl name" Yuri said, While drinking Strawberry milk this time and still sitting at the window.

"Nah, He probably doing it for himself." Amber said nervously.

"But.. He doesn't know how to cook" Seven said.

"Probably his mom!" Bella said but Seven look at him "Her mom died, when we were 12" Seven reply.

"Maybe he threaten a girl to cook from her?" Seven suggested. " No, he can't even lift a finger if it's a girl. So what's more threatening them?" He shake his head. "Also, he come home early from school" Seven added. They all want to dodge the possibility that he has a lovely girlfriend that always cook form him.

"Then maybe.. His Girlfriend?" Ethan suggested and now curious about what they were talking about.

Bella look shock as she saw Ethan's face "Oh, no. That face.. That expression" Bella pointed her finger to Ethan. Amber, Yuri and Seven Slowly look to Ethan's face, They look defeated as they saw Ethan's curious bright smile.

"Every one, aren't you guys curious about Samuel? This can't be help, Lets investigate" Ethan smiles brightly with his T-posing but vibes.

Ethan look to Yuri and asked her about Samuel "Yuri, Samuel is into you right? How is he now?" He start the question, and everyone feels so tired for supporting his curiousness. "Now that you asked, Do you guys remember Jess our leader from culinary club?. Jess was so worried about me since Samuel starts bugging me even in culinary club, then Jess decided that he will talk to Samuel… then after that Samuel hasn't bugging me since then" Yuri said.

Amber rush towards Yuri "Then why didn't you tell me?" She holds Yuri's shoulder, Amber looks so worried. Yuri sigh and crosses her arm "Your busy on your English review right? And also.. I don't want to tell you all day what I have been doing" Yuri avoid Amber's glance. "Because if feels like it was now my responsibility to tell you everything even when I go to toilet and take a dump" Yuri reason her.

" so Amber and Yuri…? You guys a thing now..?" Seven asked with a teasing smile. As soon as he asked all of the members look at them and intrigued they were waiting to one of them response. Yuri become so embarrassed making her whole face looks like a tomato. "W-what are you talking about! Were human you know" Amber said with being embarrassed also being nervous.

"So you guys really are-" Seven was cut out as Luna tug his shirt but still looking and scrolling to her phone, then Jae tap his shoulder then wave his head as a no. They were trying to say to Seven a Don't-force-them-if-they-are-not-ready vibe. Seven understand it and just nod. "So anyways! Here's your assignment Seven and Amber!" Ethan cheerfully changed the topic.

"text me if ever you saw the mysterious lunch box again" Ethan starts to laugh in a weird way. Then Lunch break has come..

Seven Texted Ethan that Samuel and him will eat lunch at the rooftop. Samuel sit beside Seven and open the mysterious lunch box, this time his lunch box has a miso soup and two pieces of fish. "You… want to have a soup?" Samuel asked since he saw Seven keeps staring at his miso soup. "Sam, answer me honestly. You don't know how to cook so who made you this lunch?" Seven asked and take some miso soup on Sam's lunch box then poured it in his rice.

"WHOA, this is so tasty! Like, I can eat only this for whole year!" Seven praise the miso soup, then wait for Sam to talk. Sam avoid his look "It was made by someone….who loves to cook" Samuel trying his best to not blush but that's the reason why Seven got pissed.

"Yo? Someone..? Then why the hell are you blushing?! What if your girlfriend saw you telling that? She made this with effort you know?!" Seven was about to slap Sam but he didn't finish it. "I told you, I don't have girlfriend and if I have one of course I wouldn't make you taste the food that she made" Sam look to him in serious face. Seven calm down and eat his food, then look to his right as he saw a shoes moved as the person managed to hide it again. Then he knew that it was Ethan.

"Then this someone called Jessie.. Is making you food for lunch..? Why??" Seven asked. Samuel sigh and look to seven "These past few days, something happen to me that made my heart broken.. Then Jessie for some reason gave me food to cheer me up a little" Sam finished what he was eating and just sit properly. "Those time, you were busy for your club, I was.. A bit lonely and Jessie was there for me" Samuel smiles warmly.

"Then since were best friend, can I asked her too? Making lunch food for me. I'll pay for ingredients don't worry!" Seven asked but surprisingly Samuel have a suspicious emotion. "NOO!" Sam shouted, then he paused and clears his throat "I mean you can't, Jessie is not a maid but a Student.. Jessie has a lot things to do you know?" Samuel try to explain.

"Then I'll help her for our lunch, as a Thanks also!" Seven suggested.

"If that's going to happen, then I should be the one helping Jessie! I am the first one you know!" Samuel reject hos suggestion. Then going to their room, Seven stop as he saw something to Samuel's desk. He tap Samuel's back and pointed his finger to Sam's desk, they both look so puzzled as they see a coffee can in his desk. They saw a message and read it.

Good work for today<3, from: E

"I want to say, this person has a nice cursive writing" Samuel compliment it.

On another side Ethan and Jae was secretly looking at 1-C's door and Ethan was surprisingly smiling as he feel happy someone compliments his writing style.

"But seriously man!, how come you become so popular to Girls the minute you stop being a gangster?" Seven was so jealous he can't stop punching Samuel's arm playfully.

Ethan and Jae felt so guilty looking to those two men being happy to get a coffee with a man's writing. "Ethan, this is torture! Look at those idiots, they look so happy" Jae feel sorry for them. "I plan to rival that Jessie, if I win I know she will the one come looking for me" Ethan can't stop laughing weirdly while Jae look so disgusted to Ethan "Ethan, if other people heard you saying like that.. You would look like a desperate girl who will defeat his rival in the name of love" Jae said and distance himself to him.

Steven stop and look to Samuel when he open the can of coffee "But Samuel, you just ate miso soup, if you drink a black coffee now.. Would your stomach will be busted? I mean hyperacidity..?" Samuel stop and look to Seven, he slowly give it to Seven even though he doesn't want to.

"That's why I told you to not buy a canned coffee!!, we saw that he was eating miso soup at lunch." Jae disappointedly sigh. Ethan look so glum as he used his own money to buy a costly canned coffee from their canteen but it was a waste and was given to others. "Uhm Jae, Can you lend me some money for transportation for today?"

Jae look to Ethan cluelessly. "Is your driver not going to pick you up? How about Elaine?" Jae asked.

Ethan clears his throat "W-well, Elaine and me were staying at Condo for a month.. Were kind of budgeting our money that we get in our card before they got closed by Mom… and I use my transportation money for that coffee" Ethan look so shy. "What Happen? Did you guys and Aunty fight? And what are you going to do for future expense then?" Jae asked worried.

"Well, I saw my Mom with another Man last month. We rushed to conclusion and left our house. Well it's been five years since my Father died but at least she could say something to us" Ethan uncomfortably explain.

Jae scratch his head and look to his phone "Well, Luna can give you a ride since I am currently living with her" Jae texting Luna so he didn't see Ethan hurt and confuse reaction. "Don't get me wrong. I only saw Luna as an older sister and she sees me as her little brother" Jae stop texting and smile on his screen "Well it's much better if Luna will become my real sister and forget about Red" Jae look to Ethan's face smiling but suddenly laugh at Ethan's Expression.

"Don't worry, I would vote for you rather than my brother" Jae laugh and tap Ethan's back reassuring him.
