I wanted to end the last entry on a cliffhanger for once.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vV11K4zct
Not because I was too tired to write or anything. Haha.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuhu4MtJzx
Who am I kidding? Being able to write again is already a huge step.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IYMmO7CJy
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXDFE0fyUg
I'm doing better. Slightly.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aXsz7BIBe
I went to class on Friday. Wait, was it Friday? Ah, yeah.
No one said "welcome back," or anything.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIwhcBnxFp
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAM3f03Nvj
"Where've you been?" Glasses asked.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01Mqz48QKs
"I was sick."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrAdmJLns7
And that was it.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy9aLtXPTt
He didn't even raise his head from his phone to look at me.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8slmU95d8a
The other idiot looked at me, shrugged, then shifted his gaze back on his game. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P0dHB8Z73
"Lucky."
I didn't think I was expecting much, but I guess I underestimated myself.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpgWdh1eyJ
They're... my friends. Yeah. It's fine.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapfqTHNaia
I don't need any more than that, anyway. I can't have more than that, anyway.
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YzhxsNdHe
Huh? Ah, what happened the other day?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgjcfFZbYJ
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkV4ggNvU5S
The kind of guy that everyone wants to be. On the outside, at least.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6a8ut8kzX
I like to think that no one really genuinely likes him but sucks up to him for the benefits, you know?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw14QWVWmZA
What a tryhard. We've exchanged the odd,389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMDNpUH2CD
"hey, have you handed in your assignment yet?" or,389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpTXDvR8Ry
"you want to bat?" in a game of cricket.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2Bi6DzdlR
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05oxIcAnir
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAgk2Spy7s
Mr. perfect, and me, who's utter trash. On that day...
"You've got the wrong person."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYBHFEfXBV
I snatched my arm away and started walking. I didn't even know where I was going. Just anywhere.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMJZodpMui
Lucky I was wearing a hoodie.
There were no footsteps following me. Good.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pSq4WI1CZ
I remember wondering, why in the hell was he out so late, anyway? Why did I have to run into him?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszG82wEO0q
I wanted to die. In that moment, I really just wanted to bury myself in a hole.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPldRIDRF6x
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacRQOxcAg3
Fast footsteps approached.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HYnGAcKNP
Two feet appeared in front of me. Then a face.
"What are you talking about, it is you."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOzJAgzPxi
"Sorry, but... I don't think I should let you go," he continued.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc28SPt4UIw
"I haven't seen you in class lately... you know what, let's go to the station together."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27x8oiBuaN
I clicked my tongue.
"Hah, no one's here, so you don't have to play the good guy now."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzovH1RBS2h
Strange. I haven't said anything over three words to someone in such a long time.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xVfqNRlqq
It still felt like a dream at that point.
I glared at him. It seemed to work, because he looked anxious, and rightly so.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniczQqa9i8
Maybe I should just kill him here, and I won't have to worry about anything else.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy85eODoz7f
And maybe I'll die myself, too.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3DKCJNgGD
I guess it was a relief that I never went through with that thought.
"What are you talking about?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP05etYSEE
He reached for me, then decided against it. Haha, that was funny.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX527sxbaP
"Look, if you don't want to go to the station, I'll walk you home... your parents must be worried."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6ClF9sf7N
"I'm not a kid. Plus, I live alone."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnip0sGz2F
"Ah... no, I see... it's just that you don't seem too well... at least let me take you to the doctor."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn1MF31d6q
"Why do you care? I'm not your responsibility."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvRTaFulLo
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?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFYRnLdrC5
Human decency? Haha. What is he trying to pull? There's nothing to gain from helping me. Saviour complex, perhaps?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G90vcuH6a
Playing hero.
"Shut up. I'm saying I'm not in trouble, so leave me alone-"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiS6zzxiag
Before I knew what was going on, I was pulled forward.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkbVWv1SSS
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. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHMZnYw2sH
"Let him play hero or whatever he wants," I thought to myself.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHO5678B9Z
Hey, it was getting cold, and I lost my will to fight.
And that's that, I guess.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkXjWGue2c
I was taken to the hospital.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56ypLl9HGW
It was a blur- forms were filled out, and next thing I knew, I was lying with an IV drip attached to my arm.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6BWiQMnzf
I remember asking the nurse how much treatment would cost, only for her to respond that it had been paid for.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKy6VedtKF
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL8DHVHNUr
Beggars can't be choosers. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIs6djum4u
As a result, I'm alive.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblyTipRB4J
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1vDtkzDQJ
I'm not sure if I'm grateful, but I owe him.
But I can't bring myself to face him.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwk7hogR4x
Why was he out so late?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTlcmsqxle
Why did he do all that for me?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm35lgT1oQ
There's no way he's that perfect.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaalD5gxez
Did he want to have dirt on me?389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEdMkPJnVd
Was he going to brag about it in class?
On that Friday, he called my name during break.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXC4WPlOjH
I pretended I never heard him.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5wIUw8CwF
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHvVAXQjhx
Mr. Perfect will always be Mr. Perfect.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm984sNZObe
And trash will always be trash.
