Chapter-88

Wild Party

Jay-jay's POV

I didn't want to go out but I had to entertain myself so that I could forget what Yuri did for a moment.
It was like a video tape playing over and over in my mind. Add to that what he said. It felt awkward to face
him. "Jay..." Felix called me. "...Are you okay? I'll take you home if you don't want to." We were currently walking
towards his basketball teammate's house . He said it was a celebration of their victory. The party he was
talking about and only the two of us were invited. "It's okay... What are you doing? I've been saying that for a
long time, right?" "Maybe you're just being forced..." "No, no! I was just thinking about something." He just
nodded at me. It was so much fun when Yuri did that. But I have to admit, I didn't feel angry when he did that.
We were still a bit far from Felix's teammate's house but we could already hear the loud music. "Where did you
learn to play the violin?" I suddenly asked Felix. I remembered the Battle of the Band. He managed to change
instruments and he was great. Felix bowed his head and seemed to think for a moment. "S-to my stepbrother."
Shooot!!! I didn't mean to open that topic about his brother. Very wrong! "Sorry..." I said. She forced a smile.
"It's okay..." She took a deep breath and rolled her eyes. "...He's my idol. I like that he knows that I know too."
"You must be close..." "Too much! He always scolds her because he includes me in his antics!" She said while
smiling. "...Then when we were studying , she told everyone that we were real siblings! She also didn't allow
anyone to be mean to me! Then she introduced me to Keifer!" She was so happy to see him while she told her
story about her stepbrother. They were so close that they weren't even real siblings. I suddenly remembered
my older brother. How is he doing with his adoptive family? Does he also recognize someone as a sibling
now? Does he know that he has a sibling in his real family? "...That's why over time he spent more time with
Keifer than with me. Until the accident happened." Her tone suddenly changed. It seemed like what happened
to her stepbrother still hurt her. I patted his arm. "Wherever he is, I'm sure he's watching over you." I said and
smiled at him. He smiled back. I wanted to ask more but what I was bringing up was a sensitive issue. We
stopped when we got in front of his teammate's house. The house was big, there were a lot of people and the
music was very loud. "Are we going to continue?" I asked Felix. "I don't think so." He answered me and looked
around. The people were like animals that had escaped from the corral. Dancing and dancing, laughing and
laughing, kissing and kissing, vomiting and vomiting and non- stop drinking alcohol. "Felix!" We both turned to
the caller. Even though I wasn't Felix, I turned around. Kiko was with Mykel. He was holding a bottle of alcohol
and looked like he had had enough. "It's good that you came!" He said and we both hugged. The stench! The
smell of stale alcohol! "...Let's go inside! I'll introduce you to everyone!" He added and tried to push us inside.
People were dancing non-stop, mostly HVIS people. I was almost speechless from their constant yelling.
When we got to the middle, Kiko let go of us. Felix grabbed my hand. He held it tightly and ordered the DJ to
turn off the music. He took the mic and lowered the bottle he was holding. "Listen up, guys!" He said and
everyone looked at him. "...This is Felix Collins! The winner of SHARK SLAYER!" They all responded with loud
screams and applause. "...This party is not only to celebrate our championship but also to welcome our ace
player!" "YEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" They shouted. My eardrums almost burst from their shouting. Add to
that the smell of their breath, it felt like my nose was dry. "SO LET THIS PARTY STARTED!!" Kiko shouted. The
loud music started again. They all confused Felix. It was like there was a stampede because of the number of
them and his hand couldn't handle it anymore so he let go. "J-jay!" "Hala! Felix!" I shouted but because of the
number of people I just stepped back and Felix was out of my sight. "FELIX!" The music got louder and the
number of people got bigger. Even if I wanted to squeeze in, I couldn't. Shit! "FELIX! WHERE ARE YOU?!" I
couldn't even hear my own voice because of the loudness of the music. My saliva was just wasted and maybe
my vocals would be too harsh. I tried to squeeze in. I approached everyone I saw who looked like Felix. I even
approached someone who looked like him. I also went around to another part of the house. I even reached the
kitchen. I bumped into someone. "Jay-jay!" Someone called out while holding my shoulder. I immediately
looked to see who it was. Mica and... Calix? Because the one with him was wearing a hat and sunglasses.
Wow! Is the sun really that bright at night?! "Mica! Ca----" She gestured silently with her finger. They pulled me
towards the relatively few people and the soft music. "Who are you with?! Why is it just you?!" Mica asked
worriedly. "Felix was with me but we got separated!" "Do Keifer and Yuri know you're here?!" Calix asked me.
Why would I let them know? I shook my head. "Why are you here?! You're still wearing that!" She pointed at her
hat and sunglasses. "She just doesn't want me to leave without her! She's not allowed here! Section E is not
allowed here!" Mica explained. Section E is not allowed? That's why Felix didn't want to let anyone else know.
"You better come with us! We're leaving too!" Calix said. "It's not allowed yet! I haven't seen Felix yet!" "Have
you tried calling her?!" Mica asked, taking out her phone. "I don't have my phone with me! I don't know if Felix
has one either !" Calix also took out her phone and called Felix forcefully. But I had a feeling he wouldn't notice
because of the loud music. "It's dead!" Calix said. "That's it! We'll find Felix too! Let's come back here after 30
minutes!" Mica said, and we agreed. We walked at our own pace. I even went to the second floor of the house.
I even saw Freya kissing someone else. Did I think she was with Kiko?! I was still searching when someone
suddenly grabbed my arm. He leaned me against the wall and tried to kiss me. "WHAT?! GET AWAY FROM
ME!" Suddenly the man fell down and I looked in front of me. Kiko seemed to push him away from me. "Are
you okay?!" He asked me. I nodded. "S-thank you!" He grabbed my hand and tried to pull me away from where I
was standing. Why did his drunkenness seem to have disappeared? "You shouldn't be walking alone! What if I
didn't notice you?!" He said with a hint of concern. Is he still concerned about me?! "I can handle myself! I was
just shocked by the man! I was also looking for Felix!" "Felix? He's there... With our teammates! Drinking !"
Look at that villager! I looked for him earlier and he was just drinking . I looked at the part Kiko pointed to. He
was behind me and looked like he was having fun. "Let's go! I'll join you there!" Kiko said. I nodded. While
walking and jostling, Kiko handed me a bottle of alcohol. "I-I don't want to! I'm not in the mood to drink!" "Just
taste it! It's a shame I took it!" He insisted. I didn't want to but I was already embarrassed by what he said. It
was a shame that he even made an effort . I took a sip of the alcohol and in fact, what he handed me didn't
taste like alcohol . "It's delicious, right?!" I smiled and nodded. But even though I hadn't even finished half of it,
I was already feeling dizzy. I just ignored it, probably because of the crowd. We arrived at their teammates'
place. I had almost finished the contents of the bottle and I admit that I felt like I was getting hit by the
alcohol. I thought they were having fun like Kiko said. But when I looked for Felix, he was leaning against the
wall and almost fell. He was covered in bruises and blood on his face. "W-what are you doing?!" I shouted and
was about to approach Felix but my knees suddenly gave out and it felt like my surroundings were spinning.
"J-jay! U-get out of here! Y-you're their target!" Felix shouted. But I didn't understand anything. I let go of the
bottle I was holding and I was slowly falling. I felt a hand grab my waist. I tried to look at it. Kiko! He was
smiling at me and seemed happy with what he saw. The alcohol! This wasn't just alcohol! I tried to remove
Kiko's arm that was hugging me but I had no strength left. "W-what did you put in the wine?!" "Something
special... Something that will make you mine." He whispered to me and I heard his friends laughing. Everything
gradually went dark and the last thing I saw was Kiko's smile. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Aries's
POV My head hurts! I really don't like parties like this. But I don't want to leave Ella in a place like this. "Let's
dance!" He told me and tried to pull me to the middle. "You're drunk! Let's go home!" "Let's stay here!" Tsk! This
is the reason why I don't like Ella to drink. His head hardened. "Ella! Don't be naughty!" I said and tried to pull
her. I looked at an area of the house. It was as if I saw Jay-jay.But it's impossible, my orders are strict that
there will be no Section E at this party. "Later! They say they have a surprise for Felix!" Ella said and hugged
me. Felix? Collins? That one is Section E. That means, they disobeyed me and if Felix is here, Jay-jay can be
here. "Come on! We're going somewhere!" I told Ella and tried to drag her away. With so many people, I almost
had to catch up with them just to get to the Garden of this house. When we got there, the basketball team was
complete except for one. Where the hell is Kiko?! "What is happening here?!" I asked them. I looked at the man
who had collapsed on the floor. His face was covered in blood and wounds . Felix! What the fvck?! "Why is
there Section E here?!" I asked them angrily. "This one is a G-gate crasher!" The other one answered me.
"Where the hell is Kiko?!" They looked at each other and both didn't know what to say. "J-jay..." I heard Felix
whisper. Mykel was about to kick him but I stopped him. I approached him and listened carefully to what he
had to say.
"S-it's J-jay-jay..."
I knew it! She's here! That girl's stubborn!
"Where is she?!"
"K-kiko..." She whispered.
I immediately stood up and cursed at Mykel. She fell down causing
the others to move away.
"WHERE IS KIKO? WHERE IS SHE AND MY COUSIN?"
"W-we're not sure... But it's one of the rooms in this house."
the other replied.
I clenched my fist but before I could move, the
music suddenly stopped. The people also moved away as if they were avoiding someone.
From a short distance, I could see them clearly. The entire Section E as if
they were looking for someone. Before they could even get close to us, I pulled Ella.
I need to find Jay-jay first!
