Love Hurt
Jay-jay's POV
"How are you, Mayo?" Edrix asked me when I left the clinic. "There... The Nurse is taking care of her." "Tsk! Your punch was hard. You even beat Kit's punch to her." He said while shaking his head. No way! "She made me angry." I justiï¬ed it but he just laughed at me. I sat in the waiting area just outside the clinic. Edrix followed me. I didn't want to go back to the room. I was sure the idiots would just pester me with questions. "What are you and Mayo ï¬ghting about?" He asked me. "W-nothing... That's okay! It's just a mess.." I replied and looked away. Edrix seemed to get what I wanted to say. He didn't ask anymore and just kept quiet. I heard his phone ring. He picked it up and I immediately saw Freya's face on his wallpaper. Haizt! What Kiko said. "She has a new boyfriend again." Edrix said and showed me his phone. Freya's Facebook post, with a handsome man. The caption was, 'My new love once.ðŸ˜ðŸ˜˜ '. Nice! "This is my dream..." Edrix said almost in a whisper. "...When she posts our picture and shouts that I'm the one she loves the most ." I could feel the pain and hardship in what he was saying. How could he have hidden his eelings for Freya for so long? "Y-have you tried to get close to her?" I asked. He immediately shook his head while looking at his cellphone. "I can't... She's angry at Section E, right?" She was. And it seemed like that anger was even greater when I arrived and bumped into her. "If only I could help you with her. We're ï¬ghting." I said and forced a smile. She did the same to me. I wouldn't have helped her if we hadn't been ï¬ghting. I still don't know what really happened with Freya, Yuri, and Keifer. "It's hard to fall in love, isn't it?" Someone asked. We immediately looked at the clinic door. Mayo was standing there holding a tissue and an ice bag. She sat next to me. I was now in the middle of them. "Haaayyy... Your punch hurt, Jay." Mayo told me. "It's your fault... You made me angry." I retorted to her. She laughed a little. Edrix and I looked at each other. Maybe Mayo was already feeling it or maybe her brain was shaken by my punch. "Sorry... I didn't mean to say that. You're different from Ella, you're not the same." She said and smiled at me. I'm different from her... "...I was just carried away by my anger." He added. "I'm sorry if I punched you." I said and smiled at him. "Okay! Goodbye, you two." Edrix said and stood up. "...Let's go inside." Mayo checked the time on her cellphone. I also looked at her. It turned out we'd been sitting here for quite some time. "We're not close. Next subject." That's it for us. It would be awkward and awkward if we went back to the room right away. I was still feeling lazy! Edrix went back to sitting. "Okay, later." "Who are you and Edrix talking about?" Mayo asked. "Chicks!" I answered and Edrix immediately looked at me with a frown. "... Edrix's girlfriend." "Girlfriend?" -Mayo "No." -Edrix. "She's dreaming." -Me. Edrix looked at me with a frown again but I just laughed at him. "Did you tell her?" Mayo asked. Edrix shook his head and bowed. "I don't know if he notices me or if he knows I exist." "Are you just looking at him wildly?" "It's like that." "It's good for you. He knows I love him but he avoids me." Mayo said and pressed the ice bag to his face. "That hurts more." I just looked back and forth between them. It was so nice to hear them talk. It was simple, no art. I leaned back and sighed. "It's hard to fall in love." Mayo and Edrix commented and looked at me at the same time. "You're having a hard time, you've already had two people who like you." Edrix said so I winced at him. "You already have Yuri, you still have Keifer." Mayo's response. W- what? Wait! "Maybe he likes someone else. Neither of the two." -Edrix. "Maybe... Who is that? Tell us." -Mayo. Come on! "Keifer will be mad at you." -Edrix. "Poor Yuri. Broken Hearted again." -Mayo. "Stop it!" I shouted at them. "...You said so much! I just got involved in your drama!" Annoyed! "But seriously, neither of you is what you want?" Edrix asked again. "N-not like that." "You can't choose?" Mayo asked. I bowed my head and bit my lower lip. Annoyed! I don't like this kind of question. It was obvious that these two were waiting for me to answer. But I remained silent. "If I were you, you'd go with Yuri." Mayo suddenly said, causing us to look at her. "Why Yuri?" Edrix asked. "Keifer is no match. The problem with him is that he's selï¬sh when it comes to women. That's why even Yuri, who is the only one left of his friends, still took her." Mayo explained. It felt strange. The way Ci-N spoke about Yuri before was the same way Mayo spoke about Keifer now. Yuri once mentioned that Keifer is selï¬sh when it comes to women. Even though they're both saying it and it's like I'm experiencing it too, it's still hard to believe. "Robbed? Who would Keifer steal from Yuri?" Edrix asked. "But Ella! He should have chosen Yuri. Keifer just fenced her off so she ended up with him." Yuri should have? But Yuri said Ella didn't love him. So how come she chose him? "How come Yuri should have?" I asked. "I don't know... Ella just said Yuri is the one she wants to choose." Mayo answered. Why is that? I was suddenly confused. I was about to ask Mayo a question but I saw Rakki approaching us. She had lost a bit of weight and looked stressed compared to the last time we met. "Hello Rakki!" I greeted her. "H-hi... Why are you here? You have class, right?" She asked us. "This is a sin." They said at the same time while pointing at me. "Hm?!" "Hahahaha... You guys just cut class. You even got Jay - jay involved." Rakki teased them. "No way! Jay-jay is really at fault." Mayo said while pointing at her nose. "That's karma..." Rakki said and turned to me. "...How's Ci- N? I heard she's living with you now." Ayyiieeehhh... Someone must be missing. "I hope it's okay... Especially if she knows how to wash and clean up her mess." I replied. Because I'm washing her clothes. It's so embarrassing for me. -_- The feeling that I'm not the one washing my clothes but I'm the one working on her clothes. Lazy! "You can't expect anything from them. They'll just get water, they'll order it." Rakki said. Even with us, she's like that. It's fun to keep scolding her. Because she's a rich kid and the youngest. No one seems to disobey him because there's always no one to be angry with. Except for his older brother who has a sick leave. "Okay... I'll go ï¬rst. I still need to get the nurse to sign this." He said and waved the paper he was holding. "It's like he's lost weight." Edrix commented. I just thought I noticed. "Maybe it's stress... His problem is a lot of work." Mayo said. I looked at him in surprise. "Problem?" Mayo looked at the clinic door for a moment before looking back at me. "Since Rakki sided with us, Section A has blocked their Section's beneï¬ts. That's why now he's scrambling to get back the beneï¬ts that were meant for them." He explained. Rakki was a poor thing. He's still the president of their Section so the responsibility really falls on him. "Don't tell Ci-N about that." Edrix suddenly said. "Why?" "Maybe you want to cause more trouble?" He answered sarcastically. Anyway, maybe that kid will do something. Besides ï¬ghting the Section A guys, he might also ï¬ght our Guidance Counselor and Principal. We talked about all sorts of other things. We often talked about our classmates who were very angry. I also found out from them that Josh's girlfriend had died. They weren't sure when, but they said that Josh had been acting weird ever since. Drew was riding a Segway in a crosswalk near the school. That animal was mine! He hadn't even paid his rent yet when he came here again. We didn't even realize the time. "...Should be on vacation----" "*Ahem*" We all stopped because of the fake cough. "...We've been waiting and looking for you for a while now, but you're just here!" I was so angry! We slowly turned around. The King of the Cobras had his arms crossed and was looking at us with a sly look . I tried to smile, but he didn't seem to care. "Get back to class... NOW!" He shouted and we quickly stood up and ran back to the room. "It's your fault Jay-jay!" Mayo said while running. I glared at him. "You're the one who started the ï¬ght!" "Enough! Let's ï¬ght later! There's Keifer! We're tired!"
