Chapter 5 - Coward.

Pov: Gale

Tok... tok... tok... tok... Watching the clock as the teacher talks about history, and how people were treated so badly. Now that I think about it, why am I still coming to class... It's not like I'm learning anything new. I'm top student, haven't missed a class in my life... Since I was young my mother taught me years beyond my age. Schools boring. I'd rather learn from my mother. Why. why. Why. why. I have no friends but foe. Kris has been getting more extreme. hah. Well extreme in his book. Extreme to him is pushing me just enough to ALMOST end up on the floor. It dosn't hurt, but it is a pain. The only extreme thing he's done is push me down the school stairs, well- at least... At least I think he pushed me. It almost seemed he grabbed me just before I fell to my broken arm ( Was it a broken arm or leg... 🤔 ) But... The face he made... What was it... Why. why. why- Why couldn't I tell the emotion in his face. He was so predictable. He couldn't hide his emotions even if he tried. SO WHY?! why... Why did he stop being my... He was my only friend and I was his. Why... Why do you have to be such a-

"COWARD!!!" The teacher screamed at me

"Wake up this instance Gale Cowurd!"

Receiving giggles from my classmates and steam from the teachers ears. Seriously. Why did my dads last name have to be cowurd, the teacher dosn't even pronounce it correctly. In fact I don't even know how to pronounce it correctly, my dad speaks in such a strange way. Even his name's strange, Grundelis- no Grundielest? No idea, I just call him Greg. My name's strange to actually, who name's there child gale. Everyone in class pronounces it as Gay-le as a joke. It's not even that funny... Actually this reminds me of a comic book I use to read, what was it called...? Ah ha! Mega millions! Ahh yes the classic sports manga, where the main character always wins the game- unless it's like there first one in the book, they usually loose the first one. Basically all the characters names were so weird, CATicus, Uyme, e0o, yeah I don't even know what weird is at this point. Me and Kris use to laugh everytime we saw there names- oh. Aha riight. You see, like I said me and Kris use to be friends and- aha- well it's pretty funny, Kris use to be a total bookie, He'd read even more then me, which at the time I thought was impossible. Everytime a new manga, comic or book came out he'd come running to my desk in the morning, so early that we could talk for an hour before class started. Haha... ah... Yeah there was this one time- when I had bought mega millions the day it came out, to surprise him, maaan did I want to see his reaction. I had it all planned out, we were going to go to his house after school, I'd tell him that the book had sold out, and BAM! I'd whip out my new mega millions volume 1!! But... I never got to see his reaction. Never. Some kids beat me up. ripped up the book and- After kris never talked to me again. I really... Why? Why. why. why. why. why. why. WHY?! I hate kris... I miss him.
