"Hey man, you coming with us?" the guy with a strong figure asked the other guy who is currently packing things on his bag. It is already the end of classes and he is planning on skipping his class duties that's why he is now cleaning his table and is packing up immediately.
"Where to?" he asked back to the guy who is now sitting beside him.
"The upper class asked us guys to go meet with them. I think they're gonna hit up with those chicks again, I don't know" the guy just continued packing up until he's done. He grabbed his bag and looked at his friend.
"So, you coming?"
"Sorry bro, gotta skip for today grandma wanted me to come home early. Something came up"
"Oho, still a granny's boy, huh?" he was about to give him a friendly punch but then stopped midway when somebody outside called him.
"Hey Leo, some upper classmen are looking for you!" a girl from the outside called him.
"Tell them to wait for a minute!" Leo shouted back. He looked back at his friend and continued throwing punches.
"Ow! Stop that. And hey, you should get going now you don't want them to wait."
"Oh yes, gotta go now. See you tomorrow?"
"Yeah, see you" his friend then left him and met up whoever called him.
After checking all of his things and made sure that nothing was left behind, he started sneaking out of the classroom. Just as when he already got his first step out, his team president noticed him and shouted.
"Mr. Gill where do you think you're going?!"
The young man was startled when he heard their team president shout at her lungs. He looked back to see that she is now approaching him. She is holding a broom and he could already see steams coming out from both her ears and nose, and her face is becoming red.
"Oh, shit" afraid of being caught, by their president who is now turning into a bull, he bolted out away from his class. He even bumped to other students but he couldn't care less. It is really scary when it is already that girl who gets mad. It feels like everything is gonna blow up that is within 50 kilometer from her radar, and it would be better if he is not within that range.
"Sorry president!" The young man kept laughing as he ran away from his class duty. He really hate it when it is that time his friends had to left him behind just to clean their classroom. He doesn't even just dump his trashes everywhere so why should he clean others? And also, why even bother when his teammates could do it anyway?
He continued running until he reached the gate. After few minutes of making sure that no one is following him, he stopped and catches his breath. 'That was a long run', he thought.
He looked back at the school building and found that many students are still coming out. Some in groups, some are alone. Some people are on their phones and some isn't. There are also some students running away from their class duties also, just like him. Watching them run around makes him think of himself. Is this how his president see him everytime he ditch his duty? The thought made him chuckle.
He then continued walking through the station. As he walk around, he can see different people on the streets, some are familiar faces and some are not. He usually take the main road when coming to the station but since he found out another way-- a shortcut, he started taking this one instead. The street isn't that crowded like the main, and is way shorter to travel to the station. Much more convenient than the other one.
Just as when he arrived at the entrance of the station, a sudden pour of rain made him cover his head and run for shelter. That was weird, because seconds ago the sun was still shining, but now the sky is so dark that it seems like it's already evening. He left school at 4:00 and it's only 4:30 or so when he arrived at he station and the rain started pouring. It is already 4:45 when his train arrived but the rain is still pouring outside. He sat down and went to the corner hoping that he could take a nap while waiting for his stop.
A loud thump made the young man wake up. He hit his head on the corner while snoring. The train had now stopped near his place. He looked outside the window and saw that the rain is now pouring really hard. He got out of the train and rested on a shed of a while. Should he wait until the rain stops or should he just run to their house and get soaked? It's really not that far but looking at the sky, it seems like not will not be stopping anytime soon. He groaned at the thought. He looked at his watch and saw that it's already 5:10 in the afternoon. His train usually only takes fifteen to twenty minutes from the station but considering the hard pouring of the rain, it is only normal to take another five to ten minutes until his stop. And this is why he is already late. He had no choice but to run from here to their house.
He put his bag on top of his head then he made a run until he is now on their beach. He could feel the sand entering his shoes while he kept on running to one of their cottages. While staying on the cottage for a while, the sky suddenly lit up and a thunder follows, startling the young man. He looked up for a second and was shocked to see figures forming while the lightning still continues,and instead of feeling scared, he got excited by that three-second lightning formation. The figures look like hands and crown, with swords below? He didn't see it clearly so he waited for it to show up again. Lightnings and thunders came again but there are no more figures that he can see, only scattered lights. After getting a little bored, he then continued running until he reached the front door.
"Grandma, I'm home" he said as soon as he got inside of the house. He sat and took off his socks and shoes and cleaned his feet before finally entering the living room.
"Oh Wadey you're here! Welcome home." her grandma welcomed him from the kitchen. Wade came to her grandmother who is currently preparing their dinner.
"I'm back, grandma" he held her grandmother's hand and put it's back of her hand on his forehead.
"Oh my, you're soaked. Go now and change your clothes before eating. Okay? Or you might catch a cold" he just agreed to his grandmother and continued to his room to change clothes. He is now soaking wet from the rain and just changing clothes wouldn't do,so he decided on taking a bath instead.
After entering the bath, he noticed that the rain had finally stopped. 'Thank God it wouldn't be too cold taking a bath now' he said to himself. While cleaning himself naked, a loud roar from the outside made him drop the soap. He then felt goosebumps all over his body after hearing it. It was just a thunder, but it doesn't feel like one. The sound was too loud to come from the sky and he felt a slight shake on the ground. Is that an earthquake just now? He didn't know. Then the lights blinked for a few seconds before becoming stable. What just happened?
He looked at the window from his bath and looked outside what is happening. It was too dark to see everything from where he currently is because of the steam from his shower. He is now looking at the ocean when another lightning aopeared that lighted up the sorroundings. He was surprised with what he just saw that he stepped back and almost slipped. What was that just now? He can't believe what he just saw so he looked at the window one more time to confirm. He could feel his body shaking from the cold, though he is using a warm shower. He didn't know if it really is because of the weather, the water, of because of what he just saw. He waited for a few seconds until the another lightning. His eyes widen when he finally get to see what it really is. Then the rain starting pouring again really hard-- harder than before. So it is true, and it's not just him, or his eyes tricking him.
There really is no ocean.
