Chapter-200

Drunk Percy

Jay-jay's
POV

I don't want to drink now. I don't feel like it and I'd rather think carefully about what Ella said to me earlier.
She made a mistake... With her mistake, the person she really loved was gone. She lost Aries thinking that
Yuri was still the one she loved. I didn't want to listen to what she said. What does she care about me and
what do I care about her? Then I was still so affected by what she said about Section E. Haaizztt!! It's
annoying! "Isha pa!" Percy shouted at the bartender. "...Pour out... all your expensive... alcohol!" I just shook
my head at his look. He said he would only drink a little. Here's his little, he's already drunk. "That's enough." I
said and was about to take his glass but he immediately pushed it away. "No!... No... It's mine! You get yours."
He said and pointed to the alcohol on the shelf. I shook my head at the Bartender to tell him that I wasn't
asking for alcohol. I felt like he recognized me. He kept looking at me. After all, it's only been a few nights
since I last went there. That's why I came back today because of this crazy guy I was with. "In love...
Infatuated... Intoxicated..." He said while lowering his head. No more... He's gone! I'm embarrassed by the
people looking at us. Besides all the noise he was making, he was also making a mess in his seat. "Jay..." He
called me. "...Have you ever been in love?" It seemed like he didn't know the answer, huh? I didn't answer. I just
let her continue. She looked like she was about to vent her anger. "I thought... she would still accept me." Her
tears started to fall. "...She doesn't like me." I grabbed a tissue that was nearby. I handed it to her and she took
it to wipe her tears and runny nose. She signaled the Bartender for another drink. He poured her a glass. "It's
too late. Don't order." I said and she smiled at me. "My brother is concerned about me." She was teasing me.
No, no! I just didn't want to get drunk. I just gave her a hard time and looked at the dance floor for a moment.
As usual, there were still a lot of people. Dancing to the loud music. I looked back at Percy and he was
currently staring at the glass he was holding. "She's beautiful..." He said seriously. "...she's so beautiful." Is that
me? "...The first time I saw her, I said 'she'll be mine'. I didn't disappoint..." He smiled as if he was talking to her.
"...They were practicing dancing then her hairpin came off. It splashed at my feet. I was about to take her
home but she saw me." He seemed to hit Freya hard. "...Her voice was beautiful when she talked to me..." he
raised the glass of wine. "...I've been watching her for a long time. I even became a stalker for a few weeks
before I got the courage." He laughed slightly. "...that's when I found out that many of us like her." I heard that
she was the town's fantasy. He had finished the contents of the glass. He motioned to the Bartender but I
immediately stopped him. I shook my head at him as a 'no' signal. "Let's go home..." I told him. "It's late... It's
still early." He said pleadingly. I stood up from the stool I was sitting on and approached her. I grabbed his arm
to lead him. He was so drunk he couldn't even stand up. I faced the Bartender first. "W-how much?" He shook
his head at me. "Did you forget? Boss, you're free here." I pointed to Tiger's office. Free?! Kingina! I wish you
had told me right away! Shutanginames! I wish I had taken advantage of that free time. They didn't make it
clear to me that it was forever. I thought it was just the other night. I just smiled at him and thanked him. I was
already helping Percy walk. While walking among the crowd, this crazy Stepbrother of mine kept fidgeting. I
was having a hard time! "Don't be fidgety!" I shouted at him. I was already having a hard time supporting him
because of the crowd and then he would fidget even more. He was so good at hitting me. We were out the
door. I was panting for breath because of him. This man was making me so miserable! "You're a fool! You're
making me so miserable, you animal!" I shouted at him. Suddenly, he raised one of his fingers and sang.
"...Just like animals, animals... Awwoooohhhh!" It's gone! This is so cute! I looked around for a moment. No
taxis were passing by. It was already dark and I guessed it was 10pm. I was annoyed with Kuya Angelo. Percy
didn't bring his car because he was already here. A taxi suddenly stopped on the road earlier. I leaned him
against the wall and looked back at the road. It seemed like I had no choice but to call someone to pick us up.
I took Percy's cellphone from his pocket. "What are you doing there?" he shouted. Oh, putarages! I immediately
shot him because of the noise he made. What would anyone who heard him think of me? They might think I'm
crazy, but this one felt like I was touching him. "I'm taking your cellphone! This is so loud... Your mouth is
making so much noise !" I said annoyed. He was smirking while rubbing the back of his head. In my
annoyance, I only took my cellphone out of my bag. I just wish I had more charge to call. While I was tapping
on my cellphone, Percy kept on calling me. "What?!" I said annoyed. "...I'm going to kick you." "I have a joke,
listen to it." He said and laughed. "...What do you call Mom a banana?" "Eh?!" "Wrong!" He said and laughed.
"...Bananaya!" Facepalm! I can do this! I can do this! I've been through a lot so I know I can get through this.
Even Korni will survive! I pretended not to hear. I quickly searched for the name of someone I could call. David
was my first thought but when I tried to call him, my phone went dead after one ring. Maybe he was busy? If
he can't, who else? I don't know anyone else. I don't know who he's with at home and I don't even have their
number to call. Is it Felix? Tsk! Not that I'm being stubborn or anything but it doesn't seem like he can help me
right now. This crazy guy has been teasing me again . "What's this?!" I said annoyed. "What's the name of the
egg test?" He asked while laughing. Here he is again! "Tsk!" "Edi egg-xam!" He replied and laughed to himself. I
can do this! I can do this! I can do it even if it's corny! Jusme! I think I've been banging my head against the
wall for a while because of this one. In my annoyance, I didn't realize that I had already pressed the 'Call'
button next to Felix's name. It was too late before I could cancel because he had already answered. ["Hello?
Jay?"] I heard Felix say. I glared at Percy who was still laughing. It was his fault. I had no choice but to talk to
Felix. It would be a waste of my load if I didn't speak. "F-felix." ["Jay-jay... Why? Is there a problem?"] "We were
just going to pick you up here at Kingsground." I heard a moment of silence before he spoke again. ["Okay.
We're going"] I was about to ask who 'we' he was referring to, but he immediately hung up the call. I just
shrugged. I put my cellphone back in my bag. I was about to join Percy as he leaned against the wall but three
men approached us. "Hi Miss!" The tallest of them greeted. "...What's a beautiful girl like you doing here?"
Sleeping! I was about to open my mouth to answer and send them away but Crazy Percy had already beaten
me to it. "Is this beautiful?" He asked the men while pointing at me. "...You're crazy!" We were just staring at
him in surprise. It was obvious that he couldn't stand up straight because of his drunkenness. "You're drunk,
bro..." One of the men said to Percy. "Me?! Lassshhhing?! No way!" He replied arrogantly. I could only shake
my head while holding my face. He was embarrassing other people. "Miss... Is that your boyfriend?" The man
in front of me asked. I shook my head quickly. "That's my stepbrother." "Miss? Which Miss?" Percy said and
the man I was talking to stepped between us . "...This is Miss? It's not Miss! It's Mister!" He hugged me! He
even made me a man now. The men laughed even though they clearly didn't believe him. "He's a transsexual,
bro! Transsexual!" He added and their laughter got louder. I'm giving up! I'm really going to bang my head
against the wall. I can't take his madness anymore. I thought I could tolerate his rudeness but this is on
another level. "It's different... It looks like you need to take this guy home with you." A man said to me. I
nodded in agreement. "Excuse me." "It's okay... We laughed." The man in front of me said. "...Okay, okay? We
need to go inside. If you need help with your companion, just call us inside." I think I'll find you right inside,
right? "Okay... Thank you." They smiled and walked away. They were already far away and it was only then that
Percy realized that the men had left. "Hey! Where are they?! I'm going to tell my killer joke." He said while
looking around. I tried to pull him back and made him lean against the wall he was leaning against. "No more!
They know how corny it is that's why they left you!" He bowed his head while pouting. "Oh..." If this crazy
person is like this, I'll never let him drink much. Or I won't go with him. I might give in early because of his
corniness. "I'll tell you my joke!" He said with all his energy. Oh no! "Shut up!" He ignored what I said. He
started laughing to himself again. "What do you call a horse with wings?" He said and laughed again . "Tsk!"
"Stupid! That's Pegasus..." He said and his laughter got even louder. That's enough... Please... I'm begging, I
hope our pick-up has arrived. With my companion being so corny, I might just fall over. "Here! Here!" He said
while trying to hold back his laughter. "...What do you call a flying ant?" He brought his face closer to mine and
was obviously waiting for my turn in his corny joke. I wanted his corny joke to end so I gave in. "What?" I asked
bored. "I don't know... That's why I'm asking you!" Tengene! I've really given up! I should just leave him alone
here. I really can't take his corny jokes anymore. His corny jokes are even crazier than the ones that happened
to me. "Haha... My jokes are really funny. I'm handsome." He said and I winked. Suddenly I laughed out loud.
"Hahahahaha... That's the best joke of all yours." I laughed while still getting slapped on my thigh. It took me a
long time to stop and then I noticed that he wasn't moving anymore while looking at me seriously. "There's no
joke in what I said." "There is... That 'you're handsome'! Come on! It's really a sell to me!" I replied and laughed
at him again. He gave me a hard time while crossing his arms. "I don't like you, kid. You're fighting me!" I just
shook my head at his look. Finally! His teasing was over. I thought I would be forced to run away because of
him. Hahahaha... It turned out to be a joke! We heard a car horn. We turned around at the same time and an
SUV stopped in front of us. The door from the passenger seat opened and Felix got out. I was about to get
ready and help Percy get into the car but I was stopped because of the person who got out of the driver's seat.
That's why 'we' were with him, because he was with another idiot! "Jay-jay." Yuri called to me. I only stared at
him in response. It seemed like he could tell I wasn't happy to see him here. He even bent down slightly to
avoid my gaze. "Hey! Palito!" Percy shouted, causing us to look at him. "...What are you doing here?!" He was
looking at Yuri while saying that. He tried to approach her but because of his drunkenness, he almost fell over.
He immediately hugged me for support. "W-get better! You're so heavy!" I said and tried to stand him up. Felix
also came over to help me stand him up properly. "Bring me closer to Palito! I'll pull him up!" He said and tried
to take steps.Palito?! "Stop it!" Felix said. Percy looked at him. "He's on your side now too?! You're on his side
too?!" "You're drunk, brother! You're with us!" Felix interrupted. "I'm asking you! Are you on this idiot's side?!"
He shouted and we stopped. There was something strange about his shouting. It was as if he was pulling
something out of anger. I looked at Yuri but he didn't react. "Percy... That's enough." I said and tried to pull him
but he didn't move. "...Percy." "Everything?! You're going to take everything from me?!" He said again angrily.
He forced himself to step closer to Yuri. No matter how much we tried to stop him, he still continued and all
we could do was support him. Before he could get close enough, he reached for Yuri's collar. "Stop it, Percy!" I
stopped him. Yuri didn't do anything else but let him go. He just watched us, instead of walking away he didn't
move. Percy easily grabbed his collar. "What?! Where's your pride?! You coward!" Percy shouted right in his
ace. Felix and I tried to get his hand off. The grip was too tight.
He held Yuri and kept shaking him.
"That's enough, brother!" Felix shouted but he didn't listen to him anymore.
"Are you happy now?! Ha?! You got what you deserve!
Keifer's trust! My sister! And Freya!" Percy said,
confusing me.
I didn't understand what he meant. He was saying that
Yuri took what was meant for him.
"I'm not taking anything from you." Yuri answered calmly. "...I tried to
protect everything you left."
"STUPID! Protect?! Was that what you did to Freya?!"
He knew that too.
"I-I didn't mean it." Yuri answered weakly.
Suddenly, Percy punched him in the face. I was confused and confused
about what to do. I wasn't drunk but I didn't feel like myself.
Yuri fell, Percy was about to follow up with a punch but
Felix intervened. Also because of the drunkenness, his body fell on its own and
it seemed like he was tired of what he had done.
Yuri stood up while wiping his bloody lip. He looked
at me before bowing. I don't know, but it seems like he's not the Yuri
I knew, the one who became my crush and asked me to marry him.
It seems like he's become a different person.
I don't regret that we're like this. Because after all, it's
their fault for being best friends that's why we're like this now. So if
anyone should feel this way, it shouldn't be me. It's him!
I helped Percy get up. I wanted to go home, I wanted to get away
rom them.
"Let's go home." Felix said.
"No! I'm not done with that Palito yet?!" Percy shouted
while struggling. I
pulled him closer to the car with all my strength. Felix did the same
so even though he was struggling, we still managed to get him in. I sat
next to Percy. Felix was in the passenger seat and Yuri was the
driver.
"Freya..." I heard Percy whisper and suddenly my head fell
on my shoulder. "...she doesn't like me anymore."
I looked in the front mirror. I saw
Yuri also looking at me from there. I gave him a hard time and turned to Percy again.
We were silent the entire trip. Except of course for Percy who was
still challenging Yuri to a fight. There was a time when
his hand flew and I almost hit him.
Son of... One more! I'm going to punch him!
When we arrived at Felix's house, his mother was at the gate and looked like
she was really expecting us.
"Mama..." Felix greeted him as he got off.
They talked for a while while the three of us were left inside. There was a
time when Yuri looked at me again but I chose to
ignore him.
Felix and his mother approached the door of the back seat where we were.
They opened it and helped each other pull Percy.
He also got up on his own when he saw who was pulling him.
"Mama!" Percy shouted and greeted his stepmother with a hug.
"...I missed you, Mom!"
Felix's mother laughed slightly. "It seems like it was only a week
since we last saw each other, huh?"
"It seems like a year has passed." Percy replied while
also laughing. "...Let's sleep with Felix again."
"I don't want you next to me!" Felix quickly protested.
I smiled at the look on the three of them. Even though Percy wasn't their blood relative,
he didn't become a different person to them. Especially Felix, even though he didn't
say it, I could feel that he was happy to see his brother.
Their mother led Percy into the house.
Felix faced us and thanked us. We waited for him to enter the house
before leaving.
That's super strange! That's it!
Silence prevailed over us. There were times when
we glanced at each other but then quickly avoided each other. We looked like we didn't know what
we were doing. Why was I doing this?
He stopped right in front of our house. I didn't wait for
him to open the door even though he immediately got down to do it.
"T-thank you." I said and started walking.
"Jay-jay." He called me so I stopped and looked at him. "...W-
what...W-why."
I looked at the corner of his lips. It was already red and looked like
it was starting to bruise. I turned around the house and the
lights were already off in another part. It looked like they were asleep.
"Come in first." I told her.
I didn't wait for her to say anything. I went inside and
she followed soon after. I went straight to the kitchen. I turned on
the light and looked for the ice bag.
After finding it, I immediately took out some ice and put it inside.
I approached her who was currently sitting. I held the ice bag to
her face.
She let me go at first but I was very surprised when she looked at me and at the same time
she grabbed my hand that was also holding the ice bag.
I tried to remove my hand but her grip tightened on me.
"Y-my hand..." I said.
She didn't answer. She stared at me while still holding
my hand. I was starting to get annoyed.
"Yuri is that---."
"I miss you." She cut me off from what I was about to say.
I pulled my hand with all my strength, causing the
ice bag to fall. I glared at him.
"You can leave." I said.
He didn't move. His gaze remained on me, as if pleading. I had made a mistake letting him in here. I had
shown my pity
again . "Jay... Please." He said and stepped closer to me. "...let me expli--- -." "Yuri." I was cut off from what he
was going to say. "...I want to rest." He held my hand again. I didn't have the strength to argue anymore. I was
only having a hard time like this. "Let's talk, please." He pleaded. I didn't know if I was ready to hear what they
were going to say. I shook my head, ready to scold him for everything that happened, but suddenly Aries
entered the kitchen and looked at us with a look of displeasure. "What are you doing here?" Aries asked
seriously. I immediately took my hand away from Yuri's. I also looked away from them. I felt like they were
going to start a fight here again, so I moved quickly. I picked up the ice bag from the floor and placed it on the
side of the sink. "I'll just take Yuri outside." I said reluctantly and tried to pull Yuri out. When I got to the gate, I
stopped and watched her go out. Her eyes were sad as she looked at me. I didn't give her a chance to speak. I-
I wasn't ready yet. I immediately closed the gate and went inside the house. I went straight to my room and
almost fell down. I didn't want to be rude to Yuri but I couldn't help it. Why do you want to be so rude? Don't
you know I'm human too...
