"What do you look for in person?" A female voice echoed in dark, "Do you even know what you want?". Darkness faded away as the blurred image of someone holding a yellow umbrella appeared in distant. Her hair waved as the wind flew past her in that flowery garden.
Beep...Beep...
[ Alarm clock : 06:00 ]
I woke up Sweating through my bedsheet, fan seems to have stopped working again. Hush dream, i wonder what was that about, and what do i even look for in person. Welp i really don't know what i want or what should i look for.
Martin got up from bed pull off curtains from window and started to fix the fan. After an hour he did, sun already feels like burning. I wonder when this summer will end. Martin starred at diary on table and picked it up, turned it around and tried to open from back.
Ding Dong...
Martin put the diary back on table, and shouted "Mom, open the door".
"Yes, im" Mom replied.
"Ohh, Hello Rean" Mom voice in distant.
"Morning aunty"
She walked upstairs, and opened the door, she stepped in microwave as it felt, it was super hot with Martin laying on floor almost dead.
"Bruh, turn on fan" she yelled.
"It's broken" Martin said in dim voice.
"Arrrgh" she dragged him out of his room.
"You are moron for sure" she said.
She dragged him down all the way to living room.
"Now tell me where is diary?" She asked
"On the table" he mumbled.
"Where??" She asked again, cause it was nearly inaudible.
"On table" he replied.
She searched around table in living room, but wasn't able to find it. Of course how she cause it's in his room burning. Hahaha
"Oi, i can't find it here" she said.
"In my room." He said.
"Bruh, Nevermind ill retrieve it later, arrgh it's so hot up there fix your fan or buy an AC"
"Yes, buy me one if you have money" he replied.
"Arrrgh... so why are you at home these day's?" She asked.
"I'm suspended"
"Hehh! For what reason?" she asked him acting surprised like she didn't knew he was suspended.
"It's a long story, will take alot of time" he replied.
"We have all time in world, you know" she paused, "hush atleast we have time untill your room gets little cooler"
"Hush, here goes nothing"
Everyday was going just as fine, everything was just as right it should have been. Then it started, someone seeking attention. A new guy enrolled recently in school had a huge urge for attention it seemed from first day. But how far he was willing to go was beyond our expectations. That guys name is Mike.
Spring morning, when the class started he was introduced. He was good at studies, and was pretty damn confident about how he looked. He tried to act like main character of some movie. But soon, his popularity started to decline. Not cause he did something wrong or bad but there are people who outclassed him in everything he got. He can't fight with guy who has good looks. Nor he can compete in physical ability with Nick, so the target falls to me.
Clouds were all grey that day, lookin outside window felt very gloomy. Felt like it would rain soon, i was sitting on my desk as Nick came.
"Sup, my Martini how it's going today" Nick said.
"Hah, Nick i think it's gonna rain" I said.
"NAH, it won't i had phone call with god he said as you wish dear Nick" Nick replied jokingly.
"What's if it does?" Mike asked from another corner of room.
"Then, it would appear god choose to cry so he save you from me?" Nick laughed along with the other people who heard.
"HAHAHA" so did i laugh.
"Stop playing with words" Mike said, felt lil angry and embarrassed at same time.
"It's a playground, my Dear come let's play together. Nah Nevermind you can't" Nick replied.
"Not funny" said Mike.
"Welp the joke wasn't itself funny but your face is " Everyone in class started laughing.
Bell rang... Teacher came in class, but somehow i felt Mike couldn't take that embarrassment. He was mumbling all the time, teachers came and went. And it was time for lunch, Nick and I went to Cafeteria but he wasn't there. I'm sure Nick noticed it as well. Bell rang again and we head back to our room, but something fishy was already plotted.
A sudden bag inspection was called out,they checked each person thoroughly. But it felt like it was made up just for me.
They opened my bag, and there was a question paper inside. It was matched with question paper they brought with them and all questions in both paper were matched. Ridiculously identical and i wondered how it went in my bag as they took me out of classroom. Last thing i remember from class is Nick's shocked face and Mike smiling looking at me.
"Bruh!!! How the heck" said Rean.
"Well, that's moment i got suspended and i haven't even heard from Nick since that day. May be he thinks I'm cheater now" Martin said in calm tone.
"What did aunty say?" Rean asked.
"Well, she believed what i said. Cause she knew how hard i worked to always get highest score possible" said Martin.
"I see, well people who believes you will always accept what you tell them, your mom is cool." She said.
Martin chuckled, and said "Well, if we could change things"
"What you plan to do about Mike?" She asked.
"Well, i don't wanna bring more trouble to Mom and i don't even enough money either" he replied.
"I see, good choice" she smiled saying that.
Ding dong....
Door bell rang
"Hush, imma go check" said Martin and got up.
"Okay"
Martin opened door and was surprised to see.
"Hello Martini"
Rean came and stood behind Martin and whispered in his ears.
"Who is he?" She asked.
"Nick, bro it's been so long" Martin spoke, as hugged him.
"Haha bro, been forever" said Nick.
And looked behind him and asked "who is she?"
She extended her hand for handshake and said "Hey, I'm Rean"
He took her and pull her closer, gently whispered in her ears,
"My name is Nick, if you wanted to know"
