Chapter 16 - First Day High

Faust waited for almost ten minutes til the teacher came. I wouldn't blame him since this school is so big I would be late too.

Then he was led to a class room like an amphitheater. The class was already in session but it was halted temporarily when the home room teacher introduces him to the geometry teacher who was in session.

"I'm sorry for the intrusion Teacher Miller, this is Faust a new enrolled student. I was specifically ordered by the principal to acommpany him to your class."

"Faust, this is Mr.Miller, your geometry class teacher."

Faust held out his hands for a handshake towards Mr.Miller, "It's a pleasure to meet you, sir."

Mr.Miller who got the message of 'specifically ordered by principal' immediately shook his hand for greeting and said, "The pleasure is mine, you can go ahead and choose any seat available."

Then he turn towards the homeroom teacher, "Thank you for leading him here, Mr. Allister."

Faust scanned the crowd looking for an available seat, then he found one on the back.

He climb up the stairs and sat down in the corner. He can feel that a lot eyes we're on him but he ignored it.

After he sat down, he rummaged his backpack and pulled out his notebook and pen. He focus his attention towards the discussion hoping to learn a bit new things he hadn't learned yet.

"Three Dimensional Shapes are solids with three dimensions, such as length, breadth, and height, are known as 3D forms. Cube, cuboid, cylinder, cone, sphere, and other 3D shapes are examples...."

When he heard what Mr.Miller was discussing, he quickly lost interest. Not because he wasn't able to understand. But because he already knew it.

In order not to get a red flag from the teacher on his first day of school, he just pretended that he's listening while he was lost in his thoughts.

After a few hours of discussion, the bell finally rang. He was just about to get up and look for his locker when a girl suddenly approach him.

She had a black hair and had a bubbly personality. She wore an eyeglass and a knitted bonnet cap.

"Hi new guy, My name's Darcy.. Darcy Lewis. It's nice to meet you."

Faust nodded at her as a greeting.

"Hi, Darcy, it's nice to meet you too. Look, I don't want to be rude but I gotta go. I need to look for my locker asap."

"That's great! It's just so happens that I know every locker here in this area. You want some help?"

"That was weird but yeah sure, thank you, Darcy. My name is Faust, by the way. Let's go, we need to hurry. The next class is going to start soon."

He stood up and went out of the class room with Darcy.

Along the way, she started the conversation with him.

"You have unique name huh?" Darcy said.

"Yeah, it means lucky."

"Are you?"

"Yeah, I guess. I have a decent family so I couldn't ask for more." Faust answered.

"You got some nice looks too. No wonder the girls in the class can't concentrate to the discussion." Darcy complimented.

"Thanks for the compliment, you are rather straight forward."

"Yeah, I get that a lot. I couldn't help it that's why I had only a few handful of friends." Darcy explained.

Faust didn't mind and replied, " could work with that. Consider me one..uhh that is if you don't mind."

"Are trying to hit on me?"

"Nope, you're not my type." Faust replied.

"Aww... That hurt a little. Now I'm pretty sure we'll get along."

Faust laughed and said, "That's what friends are for."

She lead Faust to a hallway with rows of lockers at the side.

"Here! This way, I think one of these is your locker."

Faust checked each locker and found the one that belongs to him. He shoved his bag inside his locker, taking only a pen with him. As he was about to close it, it was slammed shut by hand.

Then he saw a group of white boys laughing at him. The guy who slammed shut his locker was eyeing him menacingly.

Faust almost rolled his eyes on the typical school bully cliche happening in front of him.

'It appears I look a little too scrawny which put a target on my back.'

"You have a problem, huh? New guy. I was just helping you close your locker." scornfully said by the guy with buzz cut who was till leaning on his locker.

But Faust didn't get angry immediately and was still calm.

"Let me guess, your name's Billy and one of your minions name is Drake?..No? Blake?"

"How the fuck did you know our name?" He frowned and shouted at his face.

Faust lean backwards trying to avoid the shower of saliva, "Geez, did you brush your teeth? I swear I could smell your lunch yesterday..Ughh."

"Answer me, you little shit!"

"First of all, we're just the same in height. Secondly, if you are referring to my thing. I'm sure this is bigger than yours."

"As for your names, you tell me..I don't know why the hell all the school bullies like you have the same name. This fucking author must be waning his creativity."

A/N: Good thing yours isn't common. It just sounds like shit (laughs evily)

Billy was fumed in anger. He was about to grab his shirt when Darcy pulled Faust and said, "Hey, Faust. Just ignore them, come on let's go. Next class is coming."

"Yeah, follow your little nerdy girlfriend and run. Pshh hahaha pussy!" Billy taunted while his friends were laughing.

He ignored the taunt and let Darcy pull him by hand.

"You know, Darcy. I don't like being passive. One day, if those dickheads do that to me again, I swear I'll kick their asses to the kingdom come. The next class saved them."

Darcy on the other hand didn't believe him and said with rolling eyes. "Yeah yeah, Captain America. You can't even find your locker on your own."

"Hey, you offered your help remember? I pretty sure I could find it on my own."

"Nope...the school is giant maze. Come on, let's go. We're late already.

Then they ran hurriedly towards their next class.

--

Faust was bored listening to class after class of discussion. After the last class bell rang, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Then remembered what his mother told him. The primary purpose of him studying in campus is to make some friends. Studying is just secondary since his knowledge is already advanced. With this in mind, he finally accepted his fate.

As he stood up from his seat, he asked the Darcy.

"Do you know where the library is?"

"Yeah, I didn't know you're a book type of a guy? Not in your looks."

"Well, I am homeschooled my entire life until now so I was used to self study rather than listening to a topic I already know so I prefer books."

"Yeah, haha you're joking right?"

"Nope."

"What is the longest river in the world?" Darcy tested.

"Nile River"

"Abaraham Lincoln was which President?"

Almost immediately, Faust answered, "16th."

"What is x2 = 3 squared + 9 squared = 9 + 81?"

"90"

"Holy shit I just made that up randomly. There's no way... Can you answer my assignments please?" Darcy looked at him amazed.

"No can do.. If you have questions, I can only guide you.. I wouldn't go far beyond that. You have to solve it yourself otherwise it would be meaningless." Faust immediately refused.

They eventually found the library but Faust didn't get in. He just noted how to get there so he can come by himself whenever he wanted to.

"I thought you wanted go there, borrow some books or something." Darcy looked at him in confusion.

"Maybe I'll just spend my free time here but not now. Tomorrow maybe? I just wanted to go home and rest."

"You're not staying in the school's dormitory?" Darcy was surprised.

"Yeah, I got permission. One of the perks of being rich." Faust calmly explained.

"You're rich too?"

"Yeah."

"Now I believe your name really means lucky." Darcy muttered.

Faust laugh with her reply and accepted it.

"So.. see you tomorrow?"

"Yeah, see ya."

After they part ways, Faust walk towards the parking area and saw Angel already waiting in the car.

He went in to the passenger seat as Angel started the engine.

"So, how's it going?" Faust greeted.

"Nothing, much. No suspicious movements around the house. Oh right, I have already installed the surveillance system just as you asked."

"Nice work, you are really efficient, huh."

"As long as you cook, I'll do the rest." Angel replied to his praise.

They arrived home after a few minutes of driving. He looked at the house trying to find what's new. It look the same but if you look carefully, you'll see some mini cameras installed hidden in the corner.

He went inside straight towards the kitchen. He checked the fridge full ingredients including meat, veggies and dairy products.

Since there's no problem with the ingredients, he decided to cook one of his favorite dish in his past life.

'Pork Adobo.'

He picked up a pork belly in the fridge, washed it up and cut in medium dice size.

He chopped some onions and garlic, put it in a pot and stir fried it. He added the pork belly, fried it up a little bit the added 3/4 portion of soy sauce and half portion of vinegar. He mixed in some bay leaves, black pepper, brown sugar and a little bit of water. He then let it simmer until the soup evaporates.

Angel couldn't help to be drawn towards the kitchen as the strong delicious smell filled the area.

"Do you want to cook rice? No?" Faust asked Angel in a double meaning tone as he chuckles.

"What? I thought we agreed that you will cook." Angel asked in confusion.

Faust laugh hard when she said it.

'Good thing she didn't get it or else, she's gonna whoop my ass.'

He then cook some rice in another pot.

When the meal was ready, they sat down and eat.

"MmmmM" Angel moaned as the meat melt in her mouth.

When he heard her moan, he couldn't help but gulped loudly.

'Why does her moan sound so erotic. I wonder if its the same if she was in bed.' He shook his head and stop himself from thinking further.

"Boss, this is so delicious. What was it called?"

"The dish is called Pork Adobo. A Filipino cuisine dish."

Another bite and Angel moan more. Seeing this, as a member of the culture, he decided that he will always cook delicious food just so he could hear her moan.

"Ahem, by the way. Remember our deal?Don't hesitate to wake me up early tomorrow." Faust reminded her.

"Got it!"
