Chapter 9 - First Kiss

"Can't you hold a guy's face more gently?" Said Jun with a soft smile.

"Why?" Azmya asked, a little disappointed.

"It could be dangerous later!" Jun threatened.

"What danger?" Azmya asked as she didn't understand.

Jun was actually really anxious about Azmya's question.

Was she really used to being like this? Things she may have often done with other guys.

Did she really not understand? If she touched a guy's face with an adorable gaze like this, he wouldn't be able to resist. Worse, he might show the dark side of a guy.

"Can you walk or not?" Jun asked, asking back instead of answering Azmya's question about "what danger".

"Yes, I think. Seems like I have more energy!" Azmya replied excitedly.

"That's great. It means I don't bring the milk box and bread in vain," Jun continued. He laughed while pointing at the empty milk box and bread package.

"Hehehehehe," Azmya replied with an innocent smile, making Jun even more unable to bear it. But he tried to stop himself so that his heart didn't get messy.

Jun then helped Azmya to get off the sleeping ward. His hands were holding Azmya's hands.

"Next time, and if you can, don't have to deal with Iren anymore! She's the most annoying girl in this school!" Jun suggested.

"Iren, who is she?" Azmya asked.

"She is Yan's girlfriend," Jun replied.

"I don't know and haven't met Iren yet. How can you say that?" Azmya asked.

"You were locked up there because of her!"

"As far as I know, the one who told me to go there was Yan. It was not Iren," Said Azmya.

"Don't talk about it again! What matters is– I already told you!" Jun replied.

"Whether it's Iren or Yan, They will pay for their actions!" Azmya replied, shocking Jun.

"Don't make any more trouble. I ask you not to worsen this problem, can you?" Jun asked, glaring at Azmya.

Of course, Azmya felt that she couldn't ignore this one.

"Are you afraid that I could be expelled or get into trouble?" Azmya asked, looking at Jun who seemed anxious too much.

"Just don't do it!" Jun asked earnestly. Azmya stared at Jun's face for a long time.

Unexpectedly...

"Don't worry!" Azmya replied as she put her feet facing Jun, who was in front of her.

She unexpectedly kissed Jun's lips quickly, making Jun startled. She kissed his lips without giving him any chance to react.

His heart seemed to stop beating.

Azmya then walked first while covering her face in embarrassment, leaving Jun rooted to the floor, still not believing what just happened.

Jun touched and pressed his lips which Azmya had kissed earlier. He didn't know what he felt at the moment. Happy, afraid, worried, anxious were all mixed.

He was glad that Azmya liked him so much, but at the same time, he was worried about what would happen to her in the future.

Azmya didn't know it yet. There was something that Jun was really worried about right now.

It was Iren.

*** *** ***

Azmya happily returned to class as she got butterflies in her stomach.

Somehow, a dumb smile seemed to appear on her face in the next few days.

How could she unconsciously kiss Jun's lips? The craziest thing she ever did in her life. She had dared to act like that without thinking.

Something that she had never done before but she did it with Jun today.

In fact, she didn't see Jun's reaction at all. She immediately left without seeing Jun's shocked face because of her sudden attack.

When she reached the door of her classroom, Yan was standing there.

He seemed like he had been waiting for her. Azmya went straight and slapped Yan's face.

Yan, who didn't think that Azmya would immediately come to slap him, only winced in pain.

"I think you are a coward, a snitch, and can only hide behind your father's power!" Said Azmya angrily.

"Are you okay? I heard that you were locked by Iren?" Yan asked, ignoring Azmya's babbling. He looked worried.

"You mean maybe … why am I still fine, even though you hope I am shocked and brushed, right?" Azmya sprayed.

"I don't know anything about what happened to you before. I just knew it from the other kids that Iren locked you."

Yan's explanation didn't make Azmya believe it.

"I don't need your reason. I'm just asking you not to deal with me anymore. Keep in mind that I don't want to extend this problem anymore," Said Azmya as she left Yan.

But Yan quickly grabbed Azmya's hand and forcely pulled her away. Azmya struggled to release Yan's grip.

"If you don't believe it, come with me now!" Yan exclaimed while still pulling Azmya's hand.

Azmya finally gave up, she obeyed.

"Okay, I'm going with you, but let my hand go first!" Azmya asked.

Yan then took it off. He also asked Azmya to follow him. Azmya was a little wary. She thought that this was also part of Yan's plan to do evil things to her again.

With a slightly suspicious feeling, Azmya followed Yan's footsteps behind him. But why was Yan stepping towards the cafeteria? Azmya wondered.

The cafeteria was still quiet. There were only a few students passing by because it was not recessed yet.

Yan also approached several female students, who were sitting while giggling. It looked like they skipped class and chose to be in the cafeteria instead.

When they saw Azmya and Yan's arrival, they were a little surprised. Somehow, the most beautiful student with her hair loosened, round eyes and white skin was even more shocked.

She was just like an artist.

Azmya only found out her name after Yan called the girl's name.

"Ren, explain who is the mastermind behind the spread of the news that Azmya and I fought! Tell me why Azmya was locked in the studio room now!" Said Yan firmly.

"Mm - what do you mean?" Iren asked, stammered.

"Don't pretend and lie, tell me that you're behind all this!" Yan yelled, terrifying everyone.

Meanwhile, Azmya was just dumbfounded and confused about what they were talking about.

"Yan, why the heck are you like this to me?" Iren answered.

"Because you've gone too far with her," Yan replied emotionally.

Azmya was shocked to see Yan's attitude towards Iren. Why was he like that? So, who was behind this? Yan or Iren.

"I know you don't like me anymore, but why are you embarrassing me like this?" Iren asked softly.

"I already told you. It's none of your business whether I like you or not. But, you've crossed the line that you shouldn't cross!" Yan replied.

"I'm disappointed with you!" Said Iren leaving Yan.

Iren looked at Azmya, who was confused. She then pushed her out of her since Azmya blocked her way.

Azmya saw a piercing look from Iren's eyes.

Yan also sounded like he was taking a deep breath. Azmya only looked at Yan like a confused and angry person.

Yan then apologized to her for what had happened. Even Yan had said that he would start paying attention to Azmya.

Hearing that, Azmya was even more confused by Yan. What just actually happened? And why did she have to be in such a situation?

Azmya didn't want her to be their victim.

What a bully and evil beings they were.

"Excuse me, are you Azmya, huh?" A woman asked while approaching her. She seemed to be one of the merchants in the canteen.

"Yes, ma'am," Azmya replied in surprise. Why did that woman know her name? Was her name well known?

"Oh...are you getting better? He said that you passed out?" The woman asked.

How could she know about her fainting?

"How do you know?" Azmya asked, surprised.

"Yes, Jun came here in a panic asking for a milk box and bread," The woman replied with a smile.

"Oh," Azmya replied happily.

For a moment, she seemed to think and remember. Weren't Jun's parents selling food here? Maybe this woman was Jun's mother.

"Thank you for helping Jun," said the woman.

"Mom." A familiar voice calling. It turned out that Jun came to the cafeteria.

Azmya was shocked to see Jun's arrival after the incident in the health room earlier. Azmya was embarrassed.

"Jun." Jun's mother replied.

"Was there any other incident here, mom?" Jun asked.

"Nothing. Iren and Yan were once here, but already left," His mother explained.

"Oh," replied Jun shortly. Then he saw Azmya who was looking down at her embarrassment.

"Mom, it seems like today I can't help you clean up the cafeteria after school. I have something to do. Is it okay, Mom?" Jun asked his mother.

"Yes, it's okay Jun. After all, Asep will help me," His mother replied.

"I want to go back to class again!" Jun exclaimed.

"Come on!" Jun invited Azmya.

Azmya nodded. She also said goodbye and kissed Jun's mother's hand.

Her mother was shocked when Azmya kissed the back of her palm. Azmya smiled at her.

Seeing this, Jun was speechless.

Azmya wanted to show a polite and kind impression in Jun's mother's eyes.
