"Kyaaakk!! Not the hair!!"
While Papi was in the middle of having his sweet revenge, Bella was looking at everything from the sideline. She had realise that Papi had turn back time and that Papi had acted and chose to do something different this time around.
But if there's one thing she knew about Papi's time leap was that when something bad happens, that's when Papi would time leap...and this time, he had time leaped an extensive amount of time.
Bella remembered as if it was on the back of her hand how much Papi had been suffering during all those lost time. She knew exactly how much Papi had been enduring and enduring, so seeing that Papi had finally time leaped again and was finally looking more cheerful, she was thrilled.
It was right then, she swore to herself that she would do her best and try to help Papi in the future so that he wouldn't have to suffer that much anymore. Sigh, isn't it the best when someone swore on something much worse than they could ever have imagine?
After that day, everything went by the same way it did like how it should be. Papi was looked down on during the football game and became the goalkeeper. But just like before, the thunderous cheer emerging from the crowd and the chanting of his name shattered the hearts of the young bachelors.
It was then followed by the action-packed penalty shot where Papi didn't have to time leaped anymore. While the penalty was happening, the young maiden Bella was actually trying to ready herself for the assault. She was drenching in sweat when she thought about the assault which was suppose to happen...but didn't. Well whatever it was, she was glad that Papi didn't need her.
"Bella? Why are you so sweaty? Is it that hot?"
"Uh-Uhh, yea..It is a little..."
"Clearly it's more than just a little."
Then a few days passed and for some reason, to Papi and Bella who had memories of the time before the time leap, it didn't occur to them that it was annoying to have to relive whatever that had been liven.
They just went with the flow of the time as if they had never live through it before. If they were to relive a surprising event, they would still felt surprise as everything felt new. They were both very much surprise and happy though because if they didn't, they would have felt incredibly bored.
It was especially true for Papi as he could relive through nirvana again...
"Hmph! if you don't sit beside me right now, I'll take it as you hate me-!"
"I-I'm coming!!"
"No you're not!"
"Kyaak!!"
"Engh~!"
In this timeline, Papi did not have live through the suffering of getting death threats and torture while Harry was cheerful and accepting like the person he was... But if there's one thing that Papi felt regretful about, was that he didn't get to bump into Mari. It was his one and only chance, but now he had to let it go without being able to meet her...
(on the day when Amy would be transferring)
"I am here to tell you that starting from today, I would be transferring to class B.."
"Permission granted."
"Kyak!! REALLY?! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU-...Eherm! I mean, what are you talking about? It's not like I need your permission or something. Bu-But its not like I don't appreciate you giving me the permission either!!"
Ahh, Amy is still the same as ever. But that reminds me, didn't the triplets say something about Amy wanting to avoid transferring class?
"Hey Amy. Why do you want to transfer class?"
"Hiikk! Wh-What are you talking about?! E-Everyone wants to transfer to a better class right?! Of course I would too-"
"Are you sure? Because from what I know, you were more than qualified to move to class B since long time ago...but you didn't..."
"I don't know what you are talking about!!"
By then, It was too obvious that she was hiding something as she kept moving her body, gesturing and trying to emphasise that she really didn't know anything. Even so, Papi really wanted to know the reason for it.
From what he had heard, he was sure that Amy had wanted to avoid transferring to class B. But now all of the sudden, she wanted to do something that she had been avoiding and that sounded incredibly fishy to Papi.
As Amy could said to be his saviour, he wanted to do something to help her in return. Of course, having Amy staying here would also meant that she would be his walking bug repellants, but that was just the by product of being kind to someone, really.
So in the end, Papi decided to take advantage of the fact that he had found out about Amy's weakness to get her to talk.
"Pl-Please...I-I really don't know-!"
"I'm giving you one last chance, or else.."
"N-N-NO!! I'll talk!"
When Papi said 'or else', it spooked Amy so bad that she stumbled and tripped herself. Fortunately for her though, she had tripped onto the chair that was directly behind her or else she would have hurt herself for falling onto the concrete floor. Although Papi didn't mention what the consequences was, but deep down she knew that he was talking about her boobs and the thought of it made her start to tremble.
Yes, it might sound stupid as to why she was so self-conscious about her boobs when others wanted what she had. It might sound like she was only acting humble to rile up the envy and the killing intent of the other girls, but that's not it either.
Everyone had their own problem and she was the same. Her problem was that she didn't like her boobs, end of story. Even if everyone in the whole world had told her that she should embrace whatever she was born with and that it was actually something to be proud of, no fuck was given. Weird? Mind you that no one in this school is normal, so deal with it.
Slowly, she began to open her mouth. Her eyes were shaking as if she had seen a ghost while avoiding making eye contact with Papi.
"It-It is because...I...I AM AFRAID OF YOU!!"
Huh? How did she became so energetic? Why is she heating up?
"ITS YOU, YOU BIG BAD BULLY!"
What the hell? Who uses big bad bully to describe a bully? Is she seven or something?
"From the very first day that we've met, I knew that you were the worst! Theee Worst!"
Amy was screaming her hearts out as she finally couldn't handle it. It had been stuck in her heart since the first time they had met and that was very suffocating for her. So as she yell out her heart, she started to stutter and tremble when she thought about the trouble In her heart.
"A-At that time, you were only using verbal abuse on me because you knew that I was nothing but an ant in front of you...Bu-But then, I started to think... what if one day...I accidentally made you angry...It wouldn't just end with a verbal abuse!! Just with your words alone, I was already half dead....Th-Then what if you started getting physical..."
It could be seen that she was really on the edge. For one, Papi actually felt like it was quite funny that her reason for wanting to transfer was because she was afraid of him but seeing the state she was in right now, he actually felt pity. Papi could see that she was really on the edge right now.
The strong, beautiful and dignified girl looked smaller than she normally was. As she was speaking, she had her knees to her chest. Her arms wrapped around them, pulling them close to her body while her right hand wrapped around her left and covering her mouth as she tried to control her jittering mouth.
She was so scared and afraid of Papi, the weak one who had looked strong just because of his bluff. It made Papi realise just how much pain and suffering could a single trauma cause someone and it also reminded him of the time when he was paranoid with the bloody notes. His heart ache a little as he look at her...he knew that he had to do something about this...
"Pffft! Afraid of me? Why are you so afraid of me when I only wanted to defend myself-?"
"What are you laughing about?! You're the worst!!"
Immediately, Papi's taunt had snapped Amy out of her thought as she retorted back at Papi.
"C'mon~ Just how many times did I bring up your weakness~?"
"Just how many times?! It was...Once... But that does not justify that you are not a big bad bully- Ahh!!"
With a tiny high-pitch scream, Amy lifted her arms above he head and crossed them when she saw Papi extending his right hand towards her. She was terrified and wanted to protect herself as she thought that Papi wanted to hit her for talking too much...but instead, Papi only extended his hands and put his palm on top her head.
"Hiik!"
When Papi's palm touched her head, she shriek and jumped a little thinking that she was hit... Seeing that, Papi chuckled a little before patting her head and saying...
"Why would I hurt someone who was kind to me? I would never do that Amy...I would never hurt you, instead I would even protect you..."
When Amy heard that, she was beyond shocked...Her heart skipped a beat as Papi was saying those...For her, it felt like it was one of the warmest thing she had ever heard. Papi, the person she considered to be the most vicious bully was not only saying that he would never hurt her, he was even saying that he would protect her...
"So don't worry Amy... I know you must have your own reason for not wanting to go to class B ...So please don't go do something you had been avoiding just because of me...don't be afraid, I'll protect you...so just stay."
Hearing that, Amy instantly flushed red. Her heart was beating unbelievably fast from all the words that Papi had said. She could feel that it was all sincere... from the kindness in his voice that she never knew he had, to the gentleness in each pat and to the warmth that she felt from his hand. She was glad that Papi was not only not against her, but was also on her side...
"So stay...Ok?"
"....Enn"
Slowly as she said that, her hand went and hold one of Papi's to which he responded back by moving his hand closer to hers. From her touch, he could tell that she was really glad and that she really had been longing for a shoulder to lean on.
"Thank you.."
She said that with a tiny voice...a voice that would immediately make anyone want to protect her.
(The next day)
As Papi was walking into the class, he was scanning all around, trying to see if Amy was there...But as he look around, he was starting to get a little nervous. Amy was one of the student that came the earliest every morning, but he couldn't see a hint of her. He could see the two close friends that she was always with, but why wasn't she with them...
Sweat started to surface on his skin as he felt a little panicky...
Why is she not here? Did she transferred? Didn't she said that she would stay? Why?!
Papi was very worried. It was not because his personal walking bug repellant was gone, but it was because he could tell how much she didn't want to transfer...He really didn't want someone that was so kind to him to go somewhere they didn't want to because of him.
Just as Papi was going to check on class B...
"WHY ARE YOU STILL STAYING!! DIDN'T YOU SAY THAT YOU WOULDN'T ANYMORE?!"
A loud roar resounded from the hall way...
