Chapter 4 Tomorrow's a big day!
- Ace p.o.v:
- After coming out from Calix room I thought, 'How can he think she'll accept him. She already likes someone. And that someone is Wil, my friend. I've stopped Sam many times from approaching Wil. I don't know whether I can carry on with this. Because she's so persistent. I can't explain this to Calix either, he likes her so much.
- Sam is the reason for him to smile again...So I'm not giving up on this. 'Don't worry brother, I got your back'
- The next day at school, I turned to look at Sam, she was staring at Wil like usual. I looked into my book and thought,' Just stopping Sam from Wil won't make any progress, I have to do something on this.
- The classes got over. I know Calix will follow Sam on her way back home. So I followed Sam without my brother conscious.
- I removed my jerkin and my bag and kept them in the car and wear a mask covering my nose and mouth.
- I made sure Calix was walking behind Sam every minute.
- I stood in the alley and dragged her into it.
- I closed her mouth with one hand and held her both hands with my other hand. I'm pretending to be a bad guy and gonna wait for Calix to come to rescue her.
- In the meantime, she bit me.
- OMG!
- Does she bite people???
- I took my hand in the reflex of pain.
- She punched me in the stomach using her fist and kicked me in the knee. I lost my balance and fell.
- Calix came towards us and helped me to stand. I thought he's gonna help but he punched me too!!!
- I heard Sam thanking him.
- Wait.
- The name she mentioned was not like Calix.
- But was... Wil?
- I blinked my eyes and saw again.
- It was Wil.
- How did he come here? I was confused.
- They left me here and went. Where the hell is Calix?
- I messaged him, "Where are you?"
- "I'm on the way to the library. I'll come home late. Inform mom for me. Bye."
- Great.
- Sam p.o.v:
- "Thanks for helping me back there."
- Will, "It's okay. I gotta go now. Get back home safe."
- "I will!", I shouted like I won something.
- I thought,' I wonder who that person is.' I took out the Pendrive which I found belonging to the man who attacked me earlier.'This pen drive seems so familiar'. I put it back into my bag and went home.
- The next day at school, Clara said, "This is a good progress! Treat him. So that you can talk more with him."
- I nodded with a smile.
- During the lunch break, everyone went to Cafetaria. I said that I have some errands to do, so I'll join them later.
- Ace was still in the class looking into his phone. I looked around the class. There are not many people in here.
- I stood and went to where he is seated. He was still looking into his phone. I placed the Pendrive which I got from the man who attacked me on the table.
- I started, "I know I'm not your type? What were you trying to do back then?"
- He remained silent.
- I continued, "Anyways, Thank you for that! because of that, I spoke to him. And more to that... He rescued me... And I take this as compensation for what you did before."
- I was walking on the way back home thinking tomorrow is Valentine's day but I haven't bought anything for Wil. What should I buy for him?
- Suddenly someone poked me on the shoulder from behind, I turned around. It was Wil.
- "Hi!"
- "Hey!", saying with a wide smile on my face.
- Wil said, "I would as well come with you."
- He started to walk along with me. I looked at him in a confused way.
- He continued, "I'll follow you in case that suspicious one may show up again!"
- I smiled and said, "Thanks for that...but I think he won't."
- "And why is that?"
- Because he won't come after his identity is known.
- I showed my fist saying, "Because after getting a punch from me, he must have understood this is not the girl who you want to mess up with!" and laughed.
- He too laughed.
- Seeing him smiling like that I thought, 'I want to be there beside him and be the reason for all his smiles.' Sorry. If I'm too cheesy. Hahaha. Beside him, I think and speak like an idiot.
- I thought if I hang out with him, I can find what he likes and present it to him tomorrow.
- I asked, "Hey! I still didn't thank you yet! Do you want anything in return?"
- He took a glimpse at his phone and said, "Let's have hotpot!"
- "Hotpot?"
- "Yes! I'm hungry", he caressed his stomach.
- I burst into a laugh and said, "I know the best place for the best hotpot!"
- He nodded like a child.
- We too walked to that place. It was an outdoor restaurant. I ordered a hotpot for two people.
- "You always come with girls! Who is this handsome boy? I haven't seen him before with you. Is he your boyfriend?", My friend who is working there teased me.
- "He's my classmate."I grinned and smiled.
- He said," A Friend."
- I don't why but it hurts a little. But it's okay. I'm his friend now.
- The hotpot came. The smell made me forget who I'm with and started to dig in.
- He smiled.
- I love this smile of his. I can see his smile all day. How can be handsome and cute at the same time?
- We began to eat. He said about his club. I shared mine.
- He finished the hotpot before me. How did he finish so fast? I know. I eat slowly when it comes to my favourite food.
- He waited for me to finish mine.
- We then left that place and began to walk. Out of curiosity, I asked him what kind of thing he likes if someone presents something. He said that anything is fine until it's from whom we're receiving from. Wow. That was so cute.
- Before we parted in our ways, "I like hanging out with you! We'll do this often.", he said and left.
- Am I dreaming?!?!
- He said something sweet...All I did was stood there and nodded my head and started to walk on my way back home without a word.
- At home, I looked at what I bought for him. I wrapped it cutely. I placed it on the table and went back to sleep waiting for tomorrow.
- Valentine's day...
