Chapter 21 - Clinic

Clinic

Jay-jay's POV

We looked like La Pietà here, me and David!

Just kidding. No one really helped us. I even shouted for help, but all the students were too focused on the fistfight. Not even a single guard was stopping them, and there wasn't even anyone willing to help me.

Seriously?!

Until Kiko approached us and forcefully carried David even though he was covered in mud.

"To the clinic!" he shouted at me, and I followed them.

Ci-N's POV

I felt like I was dreaming. Or maybe I was just hallucinating because of a hangover. There was no one in the room, and the hallway was quiet. But the others' belongings were still here. Maybe they just went somewhere.

My head hurt so much, like it was splitting apart. I also realized I hadn't taken any medicine before coming in.

I forced myself to stand and walk to the clinic. I was sure they had some medicine for headaches.

When I arrived, I saw the nurse...

I see a student being attended to on one of the beds.

David?

He's shirtless, but the nurse placed a cold compress on his forehead and covered him with a blanket.

"Do you need something?" the nurse asked me.

"I was hoping to get some medicine for my headache,"I said.

"Alright... take a seat over there. I'll get it for you." The nurse pointed to a bench near her table.

I simply nodded and walked over. As soon as I sat down, I noticed something moving behind a large cabinet full of medicine.

Keifer was standing there in just his boxers, pulling up his pants. Jay-jay had her back to Keifer, but I could see her bra as she was putting on a shirt.

Ooo..... What were they doing? Why were they both half-naked? And in a hidden corner?

I quickly sat back down. My headache suddenly got worse after what I just saw.

Did they... do that...? Aarrgghhh... No way, Jay-jay isn't like that. And they're not even a couple to be doing something like that-

"Just take it off already!" Keifer shouted

Take what off? Is he chasing after- Is Keifer going for round two?

"It's been applied!" he added.

Applied? Applied what?

Their voices lowered, so I couldn't hear them clearly, but it sounded like they were arguing.

"Let me see!" Keifer shouted again.

See what?

"Tsk! How can I check properly if you keep moving?! Stop squirming!" Keifer yelled.

Squirming?

"Just leave it alone!" Jay-jay shouted back.

Oh wow! Stand your ground, Jay-jay!

"Just let me see!" Keifer insisted.

What is going on? Why is he so eager to look?

"If I get my hands on it, I swear I'll rip it apart!"

Keifer shouted angrily.

My goodness! Keifer is forcing Jay-jay?! He's so aggressive!

"I said stop it!" Jay-jay yelled in frustration.

Fight back, Jay!

Don't let Keifer have his way!

Their voices lowered again. A moment later, I heard a door open, and they started talking normally.

"It's too wet!" Jay-jay said.

Jesus! Too wet?!

"It's better when it's wet!" Keifer replied.

Ooo.... What exactly is wet?

"Fix your position!"

"I'm struggling here!" Keifer complained

angrily.

Position, he says!

They went quiet again. I wanted to stand up and take a peek at what they were doing, but my knees were shaking too much to do it.

"Oh my gosh! It's soaking wet! Now it feels like I peed myself!"Jay-jay exclaimed in frustration

Soaking wet?!

What am I even hearing? This is worse than watching porn. My headache just got worse.

A moment later, Jay-jay and Keifer emerged from behind the cabinet. They looked a bit startled when they saw me, but they quickly approached.

"Ci-N... Why do you look like that? You look like you've seen a ghost," Jay-jay said.

What I saw was worse than a ghost!

"W-well... I-I just don't feel good," I replied,

trying to avoid eye contact.

"A hangover?! Why were you even drinking?! You're still so young!" he scolded me.

It was definitely a hangover, but it got worse after everything I heard earlier.

"I just... got carried away,"I muttered

"Oh my gosh, Ci-N! Do you even realize blah blah blah blah....

She started lecturing me, but that wasn't what I needed. What I needed was an explanation of what they were actually doing back there!

Aries's POV

"Next time, if you really can't resist fighting with Section E, do it outside the school. Alright, you may leave now." Mrs. Reyalidad scolded us.

Mykel and I walked out. That damn Keifer disappeared from our sight so fast as soon as the guards arrived to break up the fight. The same went for the other guys from Section E.

Cowards!

I bumped into Kiko, who was covered in mud.

"What happened to you?" I asked him.

He had disappeared earlier during the commotion. I thought he had helped Freya.

"I helped Jay-jay bring David to the clinic," he replied.

"Your rival, and you helped him? Did you suddenly have a change of heart?" I asked skeptically.

"No way! I was just earning some 'pogi points' (good impression). If Keifer hadn't shown up at the clinic, your cousin might have been showering me with 'thank yous' by now."

I looked at him in confusion. "Keifer is in the clinic?"

"Yeah... he even got into a fight with Jay-jay, and they smeared mud on each other. Jay-jay left."

"Tss."

So that's where he went straight to. What could he be planning? It's obvious he doesn't need to go to the clinic. His body is tougher than a rock.

"By the way, what are you planning to do about Mica? Do you believe what Freya said?" Mykel chimed into our conversation.

Oh, right, that.

"Mica and Freya are friends; it's impossible that she really said that."

"Are you saying they have the same attitude?" Mykel asked.

It's not exactly like that. I know that Ella is also friends with Mica, but I don't really know her true personality.

"Maybe... I don't know... But three people are saying it really came from Mica."

"How about Jay? Did you listen to what she said?" Kiko asked.

"She already admitted it. Mica was there with Freya when she heard those hideous words."

"I know Mica; it doesn't seem like her to backstab someone," Kiko said.

Like I said before, I don't really know her true personality.

"Because of what happened earlier, I'm sure Freya will go after your cousin again. Don't you have any plans?' Mykel asked me.

"Tss. She's such a mess; let her deal with it herself.' I answered, bored. "I needed to focus on Ella first."

"I may not be sure if those words really came from Mica, but I know that Ella was hurt. One of the things I hate the most is seeing her in pain. I could never forgive myself if I did nothing to help her."

"Mykel... I want to talk to all of Section A, except for Mica and Ella. I can't let this day pass without doing something."

Jay-jay's POV

Ci-N and I went back to the room. Keifer, that idiot, had already left earlier, so Ci-N and I just stayed at the clinic. Turns out David was also there, but he was still knocked out. They said his fever was really high, and his body had completely given up. But he still went to school. I thought he was absent earlier, but it seems like he forced himself to attend. When he was sent back to class, they said he just ended up collapsing again.

I feel like we were annoying him. I was being too noisy back there. Hehe. So now, Ci-N and I are walking near the building of Section E.

Ci-N is completely silentmaybe because he's still feeling sick or maybe because my lecture earlier really hit him.

My lecture was so long!

When I entered the room, it was like a monkey had gone wild. Our things were flying through the air.

What the heck? Why?

I pushed my way through the group of people huddled together. Turns out, it was Calix who was causing the chaos. He looked extremely angry, and no one in the crowd could stop him.

"Stop it, Calix!"

"Dude! That's enough!"

"Calix! Calm down!"

Everyone kept telling him to calm down, but no one actually dared to go near him. What was going on?

It felt like everything was weightless because things were flying everywhere. I squeezed through to check on my stuff-something I instantly regretted.

Calix saw me and glared. He immediately stormed toward me and grabbed me tightly by the collar.

"Argh..."

"THIS IS YOUR FAULT!" he shouted at me I almost choked right then and there, so I tried to remove his grip from my collar.

"What the hell?! Let me go!" I ordered while struggling to pry his hands off me, but he just tightened his grip.

My feet were already lifting off the ground.

Shit!

"Calix! Let him go now!" Keifer shouted at him. But Calix seemed completely out of it. His eyes were already red with anger.

"Let me go!"

"THIS IS YOUR FAULT! If you hadn't messed with Freya's group, Mica wouldn't have gotten into trouble! She wouldn't have..." A tear fell from one of his eyes. "...She wouldn't have told me to forget her."

He let go of me and slowly dropped to his knees where he stood. Even though he didn't say it, I could feel that he was hurting. There's always a deep reason behind a man's tears. I was sure that, for him, it was because of Mica. I could also feel the sympathy of our classmates.

But, of course, there are always people who don't care and dislike drama.

"Only gays cry, bro."
