I wanted to end the last entry on a cliffhanger for once.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfJFoiIJU3
Not because I was too tired to write or anything. Haha.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTnkdOiIfM
Who am I kidding? Being able to write again is already a huge step.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMlsvPoMva
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FLE1B4NeT
I'm doing better. Slightly.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK06H7CTksl
I went to class on Friday. Wait, was it Friday? Ah, yeah.
No one said "welcome back," or anything.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Z4PmzRMNC
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTOgwmzSLt
"Where've you been?" Glasses asked.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a0lmfe1iv
"I was sick."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplKk9LjEoJ
And that was it.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVa5KVTDwe
He didn't even raise his head from his phone to look at me.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdHPCGgB9A
The other idiot looked at me, shrugged, then shifted his gaze back on his game. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡietN2Or92P
"Lucky."
I didn't think I was expecting much, but I guess I underestimated myself.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NCcJXWvI8
They're... my friends. Yeah. It's fine.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzE11tWPLi
I don't need any more than that, anyway. I can't have more than that, anyway.
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR8SRoLJS8
Huh? Ah, what happened the other day?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZkpyR0SQA
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYZfGLTgCr
The kind of guy that everyone wants to be. On the outside, at least.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8ymBSryQS
I like to think that no one really genuinely likes him but sucks up to him for the benefits, you know?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDZWGWrQ8i
What a tryhard. We've exchanged the odd,435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWu4ExRhvz
"hey, have you handed in your assignment yet?" or,435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPx6nqvPOq
"you want to bat?" in a game of cricket.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufAeRHuOWB
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mPyVZkZPy
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtd2e2FkOl
Mr. perfect, and me, who's utter trash. On that day...
"You've got the wrong person."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoIwn3Np8L
I snatched my arm away and started walking. I didn't even know where I was going. Just anywhere.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KiJuqLAEK
Lucky I was wearing a hoodie.
There were no footsteps following me. Good.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZm9i4aUO4
I remember wondering, why in the hell was he out so late, anyway? Why did I have to run into him?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCKvvaPFmL
I wanted to die. In that moment, I really just wanted to bury myself in a hole.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0OqVdlK4k
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUeuUkw6dk
Fast footsteps approached.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFJjvKONcS
Two feet appeared in front of me. Then a face.
"What are you talking about, it is you."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMwRwKKfUJ
"Sorry, but... I don't think I should let you go," he continued.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6SjqX6Cqd
"I haven't seen you in class lately... you know what, let's go to the station together."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs3GOuRMi0
I clicked my tongue.
"Hah, no one's here, so you don't have to play the good guy now."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh2LRSk7yx
Strange. I haven't said anything over three words to someone in such a long time.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaog5Qu13O
It still felt like a dream at that point.
I glared at him. It seemed to work, because he looked anxious, and rightly so.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch2URUHV38
Maybe I should just kill him here, and I won't have to worry about anything else.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6SEBmfsvF
And maybe I'll die myself, too.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPPKdjfwWE
I guess it was a relief that I never went through with that thought.
"What are you talking about?"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxvTwxgmJU
He reached for me, then decided against it. Haha, that was funny.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooSJIONov0
"Look, if you don't want to go to the station, I'll walk you home... your parents must be worried."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tcDPEYjqe
"I'm not a kid. Plus, I live alone."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd3kHKYMHW
"Ah... no, I see... it's just that you don't seem too well... at least let me take you to the doctor."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QO6GpiAR9
"Why do you care? I'm not your responsibility."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2bf6b8f2k
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?"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ739DrlvMX6
Human decency? Haha. What is he trying to pull? There's nothing to gain from helping me. Saviour complex, perhaps?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWANB9XliIk
Playing hero.
"Shut up. I'm saying I'm not in trouble, so leave me alone-"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi610kZeu1N
Before I knew what was going on, I was pulled forward.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcNQKLFYfF
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. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNMeYKvyWo
"Let him play hero or whatever he wants," I thought to myself.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcrYHShm2v
Hey, it was getting cold, and I lost my will to fight.
And that's that, I guess.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kpMQVcUYg
I was taken to the hospital.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZNuFm6ds7
It was a blur- forms were filled out, and next thing I knew, I was lying with an IV drip attached to my arm.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb0HuZQCJ2
I remember asking the nurse how much treatment would cost, only for her to respond that it had been paid for.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQnFZjiVqP
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuY9NUivyS
Beggars can't be choosers. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz5Hra6gsL
As a result, I'm alive.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCLVlChawd
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1qNOwHQsB
I'm not sure if I'm grateful, but I owe him.
But I can't bring myself to face him.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdpaSj3Sd5
Why was he out so late?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQvirdt8ur
Why did he do all that for me?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU0sQW3kwi
There's no way he's that perfect.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGQCr40bw0
Did he want to have dirt on me?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwADdZ6anF
Was he going to brag about it in class?
On that Friday, he called my name during break.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmnMhMaPrU
I pretended I never heard him.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuSqP9jm8R
435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERUWJhSWd7
Mr. Perfect will always be Mr. Perfect.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid2LX2gR21
And trash will always be trash.
