Chapter 23

  Aki gave me a bar of chocolate during math class. He said I looked sleepy and drunk and he always has three bars inside his bag whenever he’s feeling sleepy. Classes make me feel sleepy as well, but chocolates weren’t even a good thing to consume. It would give us slumps of energy. We’ll feel energetic and after a few hours, we feel dead.

  I accepted his chocolate though and had a few bites. I offered the others to Gwen who seemed to like snacks during classes. Gladly, the teacher let us eat during class. She’s the youngest and kindest teacher that I know. Still, no trust in these people.

  Angelo told me to befriend Gwen and Aki. He was right that it was time for me to talk and befriend other people. I just should not give my full trust to them. They were still strangers and trusting them was lethal.
