Progress
3 women were chatting in the women's Washroom.
"Wow... look at this, I just checked and this... is serious isn't it?"
"What is?"
"Look."
"My god... how can you even play a game like that? His head is probably ringing right now."
"Dizziness, Confusion & even LOSS OF CONCIOUSNESS? That's insane..."
"What are you people talking about?"
alexia asked the 2 in confusion.
"Aah... i just checked on the internet how much it hurts if a cricket ball hits your head and look at this... Is he fine?"
"Mm... he seems fine."
"Hah, not a care in the world about your seat mate do you Alexia."
"Well... I'm still processing how we fell to rockbottom like this."
"Haa... again with the depressing topic. Come on Alexia, it's time to face it... Se have been ostracized."
"None... of thrm are talking to us. We are all we have for each other."
"Come to think of it, How do you think loners are probably feeling like? The 3 benchmates of us... they have been probably going through that for god knows how long. They treat them like shit... just because they are poor."
"... You are right..."
"Maybe you should try and be friendlier with your benchmate too. 2 groups of Loners fighting loneliess together."
"... haa, I wish all this was just a dream."
"Me too."
"Me three."
"Obviously not because i have to talk to those 3... honestly, They seem like good people."
"Yaa, The only reason why they don't get any friends is probably because of their background."
"Honestly... your benchmate is probably the cool one of the 3... He got hit by a ball as hard as rock and he's treatibg it like it's nothing."
"I mean, he probably has some kind of protection right? A helmate or something..."
Alexia enquired.
"Ooh yaa, that's true, maybe the helmate prot3cts them from such things-"
"Nope, i checked just now but... it doesn't. That is what happens when there's a helmet on. if you don't have a helmet or if the helmet is malfunctioning worst case it can cause... Immediate Death."
"My god... what the hell? Why's he playing such a game?"
Alexia snapped, not understanding why Alec even plays such a life threatning game.
"Apparently he likes it alot."
"Is he trying to make a carrier out of it?"
"Well... not sure, when the teacher asked what each one wanted to do. I remember him being the only one who wanted to become an army officer... Hey, you were right next to him and you didn't even pay attention?"
Emily exclaimed.
"Heh... my seatmate wants to become a civil servant."
Said Alie.
"Mine wants to become... i believe it was a Civil Engineer."
Emily Added.
"Heh, the hell... looks like mine's the only one who wants to tough the feet of death every day. Is he suicidal? I really should be nicer to him shouldn't i?."
"Haha... Looks like it, if you marry him you'll probably end up a widow... haha."
and so they all came back to the class and missed a major incident.
...
"Were you taking a shit?"
"Pff Cough cough cough Cough cough"
i was drinking water and it almsot came out.
I ended up drinking it all and choked on water caughing uncontrollably.
"That isn't something you say to a women that just came out of the washroom... That's why you don't have a girlfriend."
"Sorry, I'm a bit cranky."
"Huh? did something happen? Why's everyone looking at... him?."
Emily was pointing at me as she asled that question.
"Well-"
"It's probably because *cough cough cough* I'm *cough* Coughing *Cough* Uncontrollably *Coung*"
"Alright, i understand don't talk while Coughing, It'll get worse."
Fuck i Don't have any more water on me.
"Here, use my bottle."
"Cough, It's fine Cough. I'll go drink tap water. Cough."
"Just drink it, I Don't think you'll beg there in time."
"... Mm thanks."
I drank the whole bottle in 1 go.
"I'll fill it up and come back."
"Hey."
She grabbed me as i left.
"Mm... it's fine, I'll do it afterwords."
I couldn't say anything because she seemed a bit awkward after she grabbed me like that.
What's going on? Is she the same women that was ignoring me just moments ago?
Yaa... it was Alexia who was doing all this.
what's up with you all of a sudden.
...
She's gotten better. I mean she's treating me better ever since she came back.
It doesn't seem like... she knows what happened, so why?
"Your head... does it hurt?"
"No... I'm fine."
I'm getting a severe headache but except for that i feel fine.
"I see..."
well, whatever.
She's probably worried about the injury on my head.
"Hey..."
Hmm? who are you? are you finally going to talk to her?
Is everything finally going back to normal?
"Yes..."
"Mm... not you, but him."
Him? Who's him? Who's the asshole that made Alexia feel Embarissed...
look at her, she's baffled...
"I think... she's talking to you."
Alexia pointed to me as she alerted me of what was going on.
"Me?"
I pointed my finger at myself in confusion.
"Yes. Are you fine?"
"Yes, I'm completely alright. Do you need something?"
...
What's going on, I've never been embarissed by anyone like this.
And why did his tone gotten colder after he realised she was talking to him.
Is he... popular or something?
What's going on?
"Do you need something?"
"Well... I was wondering if we could be friends?"
Friends? Really? Weren't you all ignoring him all this time because he was from a poor family?
What's going on?
Also... why did someone show up the moment i was being nice to someone...
This, no way...
I reflexively looked at Max and he was smirking as he looked at the situation.
Why's he doing this? Does he want ne to be alone for the rest of my school years because i rejected him.
Obviously he's ganna say yes, And it honestly does matter what he says.. I'm more sad about Max's behavior.
"No thanks."
Huh?
What did he say? In such a cold tone.
Did her face just twitch into a demonic face just now? Wasn't she always cute & Charming.
What was that expression just now...
"We were in deep shit just moments ago, not one of you helped and now you wanna be friends outta nowhere? Are You fkin kidding me here?"
What did he say? what doesn't he mean by deep sh-
ahm... deep problem right? That's probably what he means by that.
What happened while we were gone?
