Chapter 76 - Best President of Section E

Jay-jay's POV

I don't want to go now. I have no appetite. I still can't get over what I did. I also have nightmares sometimes.

"Jay-jay." Yuri called me and sat next to me.

I extended my hand to him. Because since I got out of the hospital, my fist is still aching so I can't use my hand properly. So Yuri is here and always massages my hand. It's effective, because after two days of doing it like that, the pain has decreased.

"Why are you lethargic?" He asked me.

13! It's been 13 years since I got out of the hospital.

"If there was a fee for every question you asked, I would have bought a new pair of shoes." I said no life.

"If you're not like that, I wouldn't bother asking you." He said and stopped massaging my hand for a moment. "...You can tell me."

Even if I want to, I can't say it. A big part of me refuses to tell him.

I forced a smile.

Sorry to...

Yuri is kind, even sometimes he has a side like Keifer. Speaking of Keifer, I haven't seen him since this morning. He doesn't fight me like he used to. Like the others, he is always supportive and does not agree to go home and I go in alone. It just feels weird. I'm used to us answering each other or giving sharp looks. I miss it too.

"Section E! The committee is asking for the names of those we will join!" Kit greeted us as he entered the room.

Oh my!

We wasted the time we should have prepared for the festival. What happened to us is very perverse.

"Jay-jay and Ci-N to Mr. Ganda and Ms. Pogi." Eren replied.

Thank you! I can't refuse. I'm the only girl here. Now I felt the difficulty of my situation.

"What about the battle of the band?" Ask the others.

"Can't you Yuri?" Rory asked Yuri who was busy massaging my hand.

Yuri? In the battle of the bands? I looked at him and waited for what he would say.

"I haven't talked to Keifer about that yet." He answered.

The crooks talked again.

"Do you have a band?" I asked him.

"There is... Keifer is the singer, I'm the lead guitar, Edrix is on the drums, Rory is on the bass and Felix is the piano."

Oh yes... I actually found a guitar in Yuri's room when I went to their place.

"..but we can't play anymore. Keifer has lost his appetite since... With Ella." He added.

It's a pity.

"To the Dance troops... Who?" They asked.

Thank you! That's another one. There is also a singing contest.

Oh no! What Freya wants to happen to us is really a headache.

"You have an idea, Jay?" Kit asked me.

Why are you asking me? I just shook my head and focused on what Yuri was doing. The snakes talked for a few more minutes before Sir Alvin arrived followed by the King of snakes.. The truth is, it's like Keifer is the teacher when he comes in. Shame, Sir is ahead of him. He looked at me while walking to his seat in the back.

Need to really look?

Sir Alvin has started teaching and I have to admit, I'm not listening. Not that I don't want to, but my mind is floating somewhere else. I feel that my spirit has reached Antarctica----charot!

The class ended before I knew it. While the others were talking, Keifer suddenly approached me.

"Follow me." His order.

He didn't wait for what I had to say. He walked out so I followed him, He suddenly turned on the stairs going up to the second floor. I ran to chase him and asked him why I was following him. Keifer's step man. The speed disappeared from my sight. When I got to the second floor, I saw him standing in front of the room which was closed. It's next to the room where I got Calix's love letter. That's the farthest room.

"Do you need anything?" I asked him.

He took something from his pocket.

Key?

He stuck it in the doorknob and opened it. He motioned me to come inside. I don't want to but his eyes are persistent on me. I entered slowly. It was dark and there was no light coming in except from the open door. Entering inside, Keifer followed me and immediately broke the door.

Still! Still!

"Hey! Are you planning something bad for me?!" I shouted at him.

Suddenly the light turned on and I saw the whole room. There is a sofa in the middle, two tables on both walls. It's just a picture and it almost covers the wall it's stuck on. I approached it and took it one by one. It's all pictures of men, there are a few women. They are all in HVIS uniforms. There is a stolen shot and their faces are very serious. The others are old, the faded type, but still have a new face.

"Who-who are these?" I asked Keifer who was leaning on the other table.

"Sections E. Year 1994 to present year." He answered pointing to a part of the wall.

I came closer and saw Ci-N. They were just wacky or they laughed while facing the camera. I looked at it when I noticed something. There is only one picture of Keifer and Ella is still with him. I immediately looked at others, because it hurt my eyes---charot! Nothing, because it's not fun to watch.

"Why do you have this?" I asked.

"The truth is we don't know. We only found it when we moved to a room downstairs. It was just pictures of seniors and juniors. Then they thought of getting involved." Explain it.

Cool!

You'd think the previous Section E had something like this. I couldn't help but smile. Maybe they are also snakes like Section E today. Keifer's hit on the brain is also strong. I stopped looking when I saw a familiar person.

Brother Angelo!

I looked at the picture carefully. Maybe I'm just looking around. But really, he still has a band aid on his jaw and cheek. It's in a side view and it's like he doesn't know that he's being photographed.

"That's Big Brother, isn't it?" I asked again.

I can't help but get excited. That's why he knows so much about Section E. He's also from here.

"Yeah... He was the best and most powerful President of Section E before."

"Is Brother that cruel?"

"Believe it or not half of this town knows him well. Other schools don't want to visit here because of him."

I looked at brother's picture again. It's so good to watch, when I get home, I'll tell him about it.

"Now you're smiling." Keifer said suddenly.

I thought about it. I've been smiling since earlier. Is there a problem with that?

"...You look like the world has fallen on you." He added.

Impact!

"Can I put a picture here?" I changed the topic.

I don't want to ruin the moment because of Keifer.

"Yeah... Anytime. Just tell me when so I can lend you the key."

I smiled and nodded. What can be a good picture to put here? I want to put the one we are in the amusement park as a face, we were looking stupid. I looked at the picture again. A lot of familiar faces. I even saw brother Angelo's classmate who used to go to see grandma with him.

"Come on... They might be waiting for us." Keifer is with me.

I followed and maybe our teacher was already there. I waited for him to close the room door before we walked.

"Thank you..." I said.

"Hm?"

"Co'z you let me see those pictures." I said and smiled.

"Tss."

Destroyed the moment! He could say 'Not a big deal', or 'Welcome'. But he answered that magical Tss.

Bang!

When I entered the room, I expected a teacher in the front teaching but I got something different. They lined up at the back. They turned their backs on us.

What's up?

I looked at Keifer, worried that he knew what was going on, but he didn't seem to know anything either. Suddenly, music started playing and snakes accompanied it. The tune is familiar to me, I know it's a song by Vong Navarro.

"Yay yay ya! Yay yay yay ya ya! Yay yay yay ya ya! Yay yay ya!"

Yuri faced us with a mic in his hand. My eyes widened. Will he sing?

"When my heart loves. It's guaranteed to last. But if it hurts. You can't taste it." Yuri's song accompanied by dancing snakes.

I wanted to laugh out loud because of their looks. Feel the ringing. Grind grind.

David held the mic.

"You can't taste it, dear. Even if you're rich and social. If you don't know how to love. You can't taste it." David's song too.

It looks funnier. It's very serious and obviously forced. I looked at Keifer, who was smiling and holding one hand over his mouth.

"If only my body is what you're after. If you grind it, it will turn. My heart will still follow. The heart that is Don Romantiko." David and Yuri sing together.

"Hugh! Hugh!" They shouted and spun again.

"Yay yay ya! Yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay!"

What!

They can be mistaken for macho dancers with their appearance. Someone is still biting his lip. Ci-N, on the other hand, has the polo feeling my abs up and down. I can feel my face turning red. I can't hold back my laughter because I also feel like they look like shit.

Calix held the mic.

"My beauty is no joke. I think I'm like heaven. If you fool me. You won't taste it." It's a song.

They passed the mic to Ci-N who was still in the middle while grinding.

"I can also be called D' One. Because I will not leave you. When my heart is hurt. You will not taste it." He sings while pointing to his heart.

"If only my body is what you're after. If you grind it, it will turn. My heart will still follow. The heart that is Don Romantiko." Ci-N and Calix sing together.

"Hugh! Hugh!" They shouted even louder and grinded again.

"Yay yay ya! Yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay!"

Keifer suddenly approached them. He looks like he's going to stop because he seems to be not happy with what these guys are doing. He grabbed the mic and looked at me for a moment.

"When Don Romantiko softens. You will forget your name. But if you are not true. You will not taste it." Keifer's song.

I just covered my face with my two hands. It feels like the song and grinding.

My face is hot! I held my cheek and looked at them again.

"If only my body is what you're after. If you grind it, it will turn. My heart will still follow. The heart that is Don Romantiko." Suddenly he went topless and grinded.

Putcha! Keifer is a macho dancer at night!

"Hugh! Hugh!"

"Yay yay ya! Yay yay yay ya ya! Yay yay yay ya ya! Yay yay ya!"

I stared at Keifer who still felt the dancing and singing.

Best President of the country?

For me.... I'm just facing him now and he's grinding with his fellow snakes.
