Chapter 40 - Good or Bad News

Jay-jay's POV

"Open it!" And that's what I ordered Calix.

"I'm nervous!" He answered me.

I looked at him evilly. This is his chance to know Mica's decision and he doesn't want to see it.

Abnormal!

After Mica talked to me earlier. She handed me the letter with a full smile. She talked to me when I gave it to Calix and that's where her decision was placed.

I immediately gave it to Calix and pulled him to the second floor of the Section E building. That's why we are here now. The face of a fool who insists.

"I'll open it!" I said and tried to grab the letter.

Calix immediately put the letter away from me. "I don't want to! I have to!"

"Hurry up because..." I spoke to him.

"Here we go!" He answered.

He slowly opened the envelope. Took the letter and unfolded it from the fold.

Tell me, Tell me!

I waited for what he had to say. He was still staring at the letter when suddenly his tears started to fall.

Shit!

I don't know what to say to him. He continued to read and his tears continued. I want to apologize, but for what?

He finished reading the letter and slowly put it down. He was stunned and still crying.

"Calix..." I called him.

I looked at him and he suddenly smiled. I don't know if he is going crazy or just trying to please himself.

"Hahaha... S-thank you Jay!" He said.

I'm nervous about Calix. I feel like he's really gone crazy..

"Jay! She gave me a chance!"

When he said that, I jumped and applauded. I know OA but because I expected failure.

Calix wiped away the tears and laughed. The sad hour is gone. Everything seems to be okay again.

"Don't hurt Mica again! She's going to hide from me!" I threatened him.

He just laughed and laughed. I am happy for them. Calix won't cry again and Mica won't have to endure everything.

I really should talk to Aries. He needs to stop Mica and punish those who deserve to be punished.

We returned to the room with great joy. Even our classmates noticed Calix's smile. He gave the good news.

I can't wait to face Aries.

The class ended. My behavior was still fast in the bedroom. I also walked and ran to get home immediately.

That's right, Aries isn't there yet. I waited for him at the door to make sure we wouldn't get involved.

I must have been here for an hour but still nothing. Until I heard the car horn outside.

I was excited to wait for the car to get to the garage.

That's it! That's it!

Aries came down and looked at me evilly. He is about to enter inside I block him.

"Tsk! Why again?" He asked me angrily.

I held the phone in front of him and let the video play. He also stared for a long time and suddenly his eyebrows met..

"What is that for? Why do you have to show me that?" He said.

Oh! Not angry?

"Prove! That Mica was not the one who said the 'F' word to Ella. There is an addition, she repeated it!"

He crossed his arms to face me. "What do you want me to do?"

"Don't hurt Mica..." I answered.

This is not what I expected. He should be angry with Freya.

"Granted." He answered and went inside.

I immediately chased him and blocked him again. "What happened again?!"

"Aren't you going to fight Freya about this?! She deserves to be punished..."

Aries chuckled. "That's it! You want to get revenge on Freya, is that right?"

What?!

"You want to use me to get revenge on her! You show me that video as a proof but you also use it to encourage me to be angry with Freya!"

"N-no---"

"Because that's what you want! I am not going to punish Freya!" His tone is angry. "Don't ever try to use me again!" He said and left completely.

I know he is right. I shouldn't have used him to get revenge on Freya. But the only thing is, he punished the wrong person.

I failed to enter the room. I fell down and stared at the ceiling.

Why is it unfair?

I'm just trying to help Mica at the same time punish Freya. But Aries won't do that because that's what I want.

Why?

Why are you like that Aries? Are you too angry with me? I tried to negotiate but you are too weak. Can't we be like before?

When we play at aunt's house. You pick me up at home and talk to Mama to let me out to play. You invited me bathe in the river and brag to me about your school here.

I know it's a child's act, but the bonding, our smiles and laughter. Can't that be returned?

Tomorrow...

I got up at noon. There is no school. The weather is gloomy and it looks like it's going to rain.

I walked to the kitchen. I want to eat. Not getting up early makes you hungry.

When I got off, I stopped.

Why are they here?

"Hi Jay!" Kiko greeted me and waved.

I forced a smile and waved too. Section A is here. As usual, Freya the witch, Ella, Kiko, Mykel who thinks badly of me and others I don't know.

I went straight to the kitchen where aunt was preparing a sandwich.

"Auntie... Why are Aries' classmates here?" I asked.

"They say they will make a report. They are just waiting for Aries and the others." Aunt said.

She handed me a sandwich and a glass of juice. "Eat that..."

I did, because I was hungry.

I don't want to stay here at home. Because I feel weird when they are at home. It's that Freya, my blood is boiling.

After all, the weather is dark. I will ride a bike, I will also go for a walk. I still haven't reached the other place here.

After eating, I went back to the room and cleaned up. I also prepared my phone and headset.

Kiko was the first to notice that I was down. "Are you leaving?"

"Yes.. Exercise too."

His face looked sad. "Alright.. Take care! We'll miss each other."

Ahihihi... My crush!

"Me too..." I unconsciously answered.

He suddenly smiled. What did I answer?

"I-I'll miss myself..." I added and he suddenly laughed.

"Hahahaha... You're so cute Jay."

Cute?! They say I'm cute?! I'M CUTE!!! AHAHAHAHAHA

My heart suddenly skipped a beat. So before he left my body, I left the house.

I took the bike and pedaled.

Kiko is awesome! My heart is losing because of him.

You flirt Jay!

While riding a bike, I was accompanied by children who were also learning how to ride a bike.

Hey... It was Aries who taught me to ride a bike.

I was suddenly sad. I shouldn't think about that. Because these are children!

Then suddenly the music on my cell phone changed. Both of us are very happy.

"Aries... What happened to your Dad?"

"I don't know...'

"Are you okay?"

"I don't know..."

"Aries---

"I think it's better if you don't talk to me anymore. Just... Just stay away from me."

I stopped. I didn't notice that I was crying. I cry for the memories that I only have.

Times when Aries was still playing and talking with me. There was a time when we were also mistaken for brothers.

It's just weird. Those are the only memories I have of my youth. That's all I have until then.
