I wanted to end the last entry on a cliffhanger for once.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5hxbVVPn2
Not because I was too tired to write or anything. Haha.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9oFWgjptT
Who am I kidding? Being able to write again is already a huge step.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ4g9bnC63
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJJOrDsTNQ
I'm doing better. Slightly.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcURuXhHsLi
I went to class on Friday. Wait, was it Friday? Ah, yeah.
No one said "welcome back," or anything.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDeaAcNuRy
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ngxjhbrzH
"Where've you been?" Glasses asked.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFihLRCcZMI
"I was sick."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi6SXNrklq
And that was it.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC8zAT9Mam
He didn't even raise his head from his phone to look at me.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQTWxmHi9g
The other idiot looked at me, shrugged, then shifted his gaze back on his game. 358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCm1R7fKEgj
"Lucky."
I didn't think I was expecting much, but I guess I underestimated myself.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGG8fZbZy6
They're... my friends. Yeah. It's fine.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmNJ5B7sQR
I don't need any more than that, anyway. I can't have more than that, anyway.
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO8dikCl1t
Huh? Ah, what happened the other day?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLP0HyyMcs
I thought I would get away with not writing anything, damn it. Hahaha. Sorry, must be lame reading a guy talking to himself. Er, writing, whatever.
I think I've mentioned the class prez once. I mean, that's all there is to him.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47WbEDdbbi
The kind of guy that everyone wants to be. On the outside, at least.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS53dodAuc
I like to think that no one really genuinely likes him but sucks up to him for the benefits, you know?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZyHqqP6Mf
What a tryhard. We've exchanged the odd,358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIwG8TZVaI
"hey, have you handed in your assignment yet?" or,358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2d5ofkBuK
"you want to bat?" in a game of cricket.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEJINWJ1Js
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S19ocsBRM
I didn't even expect him to remember my name. Well, I guess remembering everyone's names in class isn't hard after a while.
But it had to be him, of all people.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhubgpBexPG
Mr. perfect, and me, who's utter trash. On that day...
"You've got the wrong person."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMbT2dqNcO
I snatched my arm away and started walking. I didn't even know where I was going. Just anywhere.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0cws2JeiM
Lucky I was wearing a hoodie.
There were no footsteps following me. Good.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yKi9LJ20t
I remember wondering, why in the hell was he out so late, anyway? Why did I have to run into him?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BeFcOl2EF
I wanted to die. In that moment, I really just wanted to bury myself in a hole.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ660TPIJSqu
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡan6g39WUHn
Fast footsteps approached.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAM7qREg5p
Two feet appeared in front of me. Then a face.
"What are you talking about, it is you."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK24oNKJ1fZ
"Sorry, but... I don't think I should let you go," he continued.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBQQYFen67
"I haven't seen you in class lately... you know what, let's go to the station together."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHbMnHsHCB
I clicked my tongue.
"Hah, no one's here, so you don't have to play the good guy now."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vaTWXPaIQ
Strange. I haven't said anything over three words to someone in such a long time.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl5kReTGRy
It still felt like a dream at that point.
I glared at him. It seemed to work, because he looked anxious, and rightly so.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgXV1w0ogm
Maybe I should just kill him here, and I won't have to worry about anything else.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2LkWNKSV3
And maybe I'll die myself, too.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t3kbJ04u7
I guess it was a relief that I never went through with that thought.
"What are you talking about?"358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgceV5F0Wi4
He reached for me, then decided against it. Haha, that was funny.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSUejRMHKD
"Look, if you don't want to go to the station, I'll walk you home... your parents must be worried."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtRqTIs1c8
"I'm not a kid. Plus, I live alone."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdtObJzeGW
"Ah... no, I see... it's just that you don't seem too well... at least let me take you to the doctor."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9qDVarzzD
"Why do you care? I'm not your responsibility."358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomWsiDRzsV
Suddenly, I felt annoyed. A feeling I haven't had in a while.
"I know you're not... but isn't it human decency to help a classmate when he's in trouble?"358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yHMxnhf5z
Human decency? Haha. What is he trying to pull? There's nothing to gain from helping me. Saviour complex, perhaps?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fLbocVq8y
Playing hero.
"Shut up. I'm saying I'm not in trouble, so leave me alone-"358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA6snjw9FN
Before I knew what was going on, I was pulled forward.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYveAbsnmzy
I remember being prepared to utter a whole line of curse words, but when I noticed his grip shaking, I lost the chance to.
I was tired. 358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3GB2fKDsI
"Let him play hero or whatever he wants," I thought to myself.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUPp3bolME
Hey, it was getting cold, and I lost my will to fight.
And that's that, I guess.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvu6yt7wHY
I was taken to the hospital.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7DBTf1Ec8
It was a blur- forms were filled out, and next thing I knew, I was lying with an IV drip attached to my arm.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TDSCXDiQ3
I remember asking the nurse how much treatment would cost, only for her to respond that it had been paid for.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8ykxysWKl
As humiliating as it was, it was conflicting. I don't know if I could've afforded it myself, yet I was angry. I was ashamed.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdawYo0S4g1
Beggars can't be choosers. 358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObtvYP9JQC
As a result, I'm alive.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc8W0JvK8k
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK75itgMPk
I'm not sure if I'm grateful, but I owe him.
But I can't bring myself to face him.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kvSd9W6JQ
Why was he out so late?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3g8ZXoJL3
Why did he do all that for me?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikxNlrAC53
There's no way he's that perfect.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPNzCtt5VU
Did he want to have dirt on me?358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKESCMGISM
Was he going to brag about it in class?
On that Friday, he called my name during break.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MBYLURihU
I pretended I never heard him.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWznex1pWS
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8AyiPDue1
Mr. Perfect will always be Mr. Perfect.358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MDWbdVyNb
And trash will always be trash.
