Chapter fifty-three
Maxine’s Point of View
After the incident with Alyn in school. We didn’t talk to each other again. Even we meet we do not look at each other. Hmp! He did it first, I didn’t do anything bad at him, so why is he being like this? And we were okay when I told him that I like Louis, right? Gosh, I can’t understand him. Maybe he’s out of his right mind?
Sigh…
“Why are you sighing?”
I turned my head to my left when someone spoke. I smiled when I saw Troy. He sat next to me and looked at the people playing soccer.
I was at the field because I don’t want to stay in the classroom for our free time. Someone might start a fight with me, so to avoid that, I left the classroom and went here. And good thing, Troy popped up.
“Hey, what are you doing here?” I asked him.
He turned to me and tilted his head, “What about you? I was just walking when I saw you, then I followed you and my foot brought me here.”
“Oh,” I chuckled. Why did he followed me? “I just don’t want to stay in the classroom.” I answered.
“Uh-huh?” His left brow arched, “Why not?”
“Just… you know, I don’t want to get into trouble again.” I pouted, “It’s tiring and I always got beaten up.”
He smiled, “Okay. Hmm… so, why did you come here? You can go to the gym instead, you know? It’s sunny here your skin might get darker.”
“I was there before I went here, I saw Alyn there so I left.” I rolled my eyes when I imagined Alyn’s face. Tsk, he made me hate him more because of his attitude right now. That’s not my problem anymore, okay? He made me like this, tch.
Troy chuckled, “You hate him?”
I nodded, “Yep! I hate him so so so so much!”
“That’s too much,” he laughed, “Why do you hate him so much? Everyone likes him.”
I rolled my eyes again, “So what?”
He laughed again and messed up my hair. He’s not obviously happy with me, promise.
“Do you want to eat with me? My treat,” he asked.
A smile automatically formed in my face, “Woah~ I can’t refuse if it’s your treat.”
-v-
We went to cafeteria, and since it’s class hour not too many students were here. After we bought food, we went to the vacant seat. We were talking while eating, it’s nice to have Troy here with me. I enjoyed my free time for today. And if it wasn’t for him, I will definitely be bored.
“You got something on your face,” Troy said.
“Where?” I put down the burger I was eating and wiped the left side of my face.”
“Here,” Troy smiled and wiped the sauce on my right cheek.
“T-Thanks,” I said before I get the burger again. My gosh, that was embarrassing!
BANG!
We both turned our head in the door when it opened loudly. I immediately looked away when I saw the five monkeys entering the cafeteria. Oh, my gosh! What are they doing here?
“Hey, slow down,” Troy uttered when he noticed that I hastened to eat the burger.
“They are here, didn’t you see?” I replied.
“So? It’s not like they will snatched your burger?”
My brows furrowed, “Yeah, but-”
“Missy! Yohoo~” oh, my gosh. That’s what I am talking about.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
I just sighed and shook my head. After awhile Sid, Byron and Giles were already beside me. I think, Louis and Alyn went to the counter.
“Why are you eating with a stranger, Missy?” Sid asked.
“He’s not a stranger, he’s my friend.” I answered.
“A friend? I thought you only have enemies,” Byron teased.
I rolled my eyes, ” If you’re just gonna irritate me, get out of my sight already.”
“You’re so cold hearted, Yanny. Is it because you have a date?” Giles uttered.
What the? A date? Don’t they hear me say that Troy is my friend?
Someone scoffed, “A date?”
When I lifted my head, I saw Alyn holding a tray with his left hand while in his right hand is juice. Then, beside him was Louis. Wow, they bought food so quickly.
My left brow arched, “So what? Am I not allowed to have a date?”
I looked at Troy and he was obviously shocked of what I said. I can’t just withdraw what I said since Alyn suddenly showed up. Hmp! He’s trying to mock me. And this can be called a friendly date, it’s not big deal.
“Woah~” Giles clapped, “I’m so proud of you, Yanny.”
I just said that Troy was my date because of you, Giles. So, shut it if you don’t want to die early.
“Shut up,” I muttered.
“After you told me who you like, you’re already having a date with someone?” Alyn smirked.
My eyes widened and it shifted to Louis who is now looking at Alyn. Damn!
“Does Wendy have a crush?” Louis asked to Alyn before he looked to me. I immediately looked away.
“Why don’t you ask her? She might tell you too,” Alyn replied.
What he intends to happen? Does he want me to confess to Louis right now? Right here? Why is he doing this anyway? Can’t he just go to the other seat and eat there?
“Hmm, I’m jealous!” Sid complained, “Why didn’t you tell us about that too?”
“Alyn was just kidding,” I lied. Of course, what did you expect me to say? I can’t just spill it, you know.
“Oh?” Alyn raised an eyebrow and smirked. “I don’t think so~”
Before I could say anything, Troy entered the conversation, “Eherm~ if you will pardon me, we want to eat peacefully. Can you leave?”
The five men darted a gaze to him.
“Huh?” Byron raised his right brow, “Who are you?”
“We just want to talk with Missy,” said Sid.
“If you want to eat peacefully, you can leave.” Said Giles.
“Are you Wendy’s boyfriend?” Louis asked while Alyn remained silent.
Troy seem shocked, “B-Boyfriend?”
“I guess, you’re not.” Alyn responded. “Let’s go, I might even lose my appetite if we stay here.”
Wow, huh? I really lost my appetite from the moment I saw him! He really have the guts to say that in my face? Heh- what a jerk!
When they are about to leave a cold and sticky thing poured at me. My mouth widened and I immediately stood up. What the fuck?!
“Oops, sorry. It slipped out of my hand,” the devil said.
Troy attended to me and wiped the part of my uniform that was covered in juice with his handkerchief. Damn, this evil man. Can’t he leave without doing evil things?
“Are you okay?” Troy asked.
“Of course, she’s okay. The juice just spilled at her, she won’t die.” Alyn answered, even though he’s not the one Troy was asking.
“What did you do, Alyn?” Louis asked while looking at my uniform.
“I didn’t do anything, the juice slipped out of my hand,” he answered.
As if that’s the truth! You evil liar, I hope you fucking rot in hell!
“I think, Tardy is not okay. Let’s get her to the infirmary.” Byron said and pulled me from Troy.
“Bye, uh… nevermind,” Sid shook his head, “We will deliver Missy to the infirmary for you, okay? You don’t have to worry about her.”
“Hey, whoever you are,” Giles stood up straight and raised his chin, as if he’s looking down to Troy. “Don’t come here her again, got it? If I caught you, I will tear you apart.”
“What the heck are you saying, Giles?!” I shouted. Are they trying to scare Troy?
“Sorry for what happened,” Louis entered the conversation. “And I’m apologizing for what my cousins did and said, they are just a bunch of idiots. I hope, you understand.”
“Uh-uhm… no problem,” Troy awkwardly said.
“Let them borrow, Wendy for awhile. I think they missed her so much.” Louis added.
“Uh…” Troy scratched his head. He looked at me for a moment before he looked back to Louis again, “No problem.”
What the heck, Troy?! Did he just agree? Grah!
