"You know, you shouldn't be here, right? If someone learns you came here, you will be fucked," Eiji said
"Don't worry, dude, no one's going to know!" Hefin said in a relaxed manner, "Oh, and yeah, I forgot, I found a martial book for you"
After saying this, Hefin took out a book from his black school bag that sat right next to him on the khaki sofa. The book was black and had a lime-colored crystal embedded in its center. Eiji kept looking at the book with awe.
"You got me a Grade-2 martial book," Eiji said with his eyes wide open, "Aren't they super costly"
Martial books, a term used for mystical books, can help a human being learn the secrets of nature, and go beyond their limits, and follow the path of martial.
"Don't worry, fam, chill," Hefin replied while locking the entrance door.
After hearing this, Eiji kept his palm on his forehead and said, "Don't start acting like a fuck boy again"
"Dude, it's influencer, not fuck boy," Hefin replied, trying to justify himself.
"They are the same thing," Eiji said quickly, in an annoyed tone
After hearing this, Hefin sighed and said, "Well, everyone's mentality is different. Now let me show you this book that I got for you."
Hefin then gave the martial book to Eiji cautiously and after Eiji held the book safely in his hand, Hefin said, "This book is the agility focused part of the Buddha's lotus palm and, it teaches the fundamental and as well as advanced techniques from the Buddha's lotus palm. After practicing it re-" before he could finish what he was saying, both the boys heard a knock on the main entrance door.
After hearing the knock, both of them looked at each other with slight tension in their eyes.
"Who is it?" Eiji asked
"Oh, it's me, Isla. My boyfriend wanted to see if you were okay," Isla said from the other side of the door. "Can we come in?"
"Oh yeah, come in, come in"
After hearing this, the blonde man who stood next to Isla took a step forward to open the door. When he rotated the doorknob, the door didn't open, so he tried doing it a couple more times, but the door was still closed.
"Oi, the door is locked," the man said out of frustration
"That shouldn't be the case, I swear it was unlocked," Eiji said as he stepped out the bed and started moving towards the door, "Wait, I am opening the door"
After a few seconds, Eiji opened the door, and in front of him were two figures, Isla and his boyfriend. He completely ignored the guy and looked at Isla, because of his male instincts.
Isla wore a blue knee-length floral dress and looked gorgeous, and then he saw Isla's boyfriend, who stood there staring at Eiji. "Hi, Alois, How are you doing?" Eiji asked awkwardly
"Yo, mister moon hand," said Alois the blonde man. "Why were you staring at my girl?"
"Oh, no, no, I wasn't"
"Well, no need to fight you guys, let's go inside and talk," Isla said, trying to ease the tension between the two of them
After the three of them entered the room, Isla and Alois sat next to each other on the couch, while Eiji sat on the bed.
"So, are you feeling better now?" Isla asked calmly
"Yeah, I am better now. Thanks for asking," Eiji said calmly. His eyes were filled with disgust, and by looking at his expression, one could tell he was feeling uneasy. He wasn't feeling uneasy because Isla was dating Alois, he was uneasy because he knew something about Alois that Isla didn't.
"So, when are you coming back to school," Alois asked while wrapping his arm around Isla's neck
"Soon," Eiji said while looking at the couple coldly
For a few moments, everything went silent. No one said anything.
"Oh yeah, I brought some chicken porridge for you. Eat it when you feel better," Isla said, breaking the silence in the room
"Thank you, I will eat it later", Eiji said with no energy in his words
"Let's leave baby, he needs to get some rest after all" Alois said
"Alright," Isla said while getting up, "Bye, Eiji get well soon"
"Bye"
After the couple left the room, Eiji quickly locked the room and rushed to the washroom
"Dude, they left come out"
"Yea, coming"
The washroom's door opened and Hefin came out, "They left early, didn't they", he said after letting out a sigh of relief.
Hefin quickly laid down on the couch to relax, while Eiji sat down on the bed.
"Don't you have to go back home?" Eiji asked
"Chill, dude, you need to rel-" Hefin said, but before he could complete the sentence, he and Eiji heard a door knock
"Not again," Hefin said dejectedly. Hefin stood up and moved towards the washroom, but before he could reach it, the entrance door opened on its own
When the door miraculously opened, Alois entered the room, followed by an ugly, fat, and tall man. Eiji quickly recognized who this ugly dude was, this ugly dude was the third-highest ranked delinquent in Ulfric's gang, and his name was Randi.
"Alois, why are you back here?"
"Oh, I forgot my phone here, so I came back to get it" Alois replied while walking towards the washroom
"Oh, and why is Randi here?" Eiji asked with his heartbeat rising rapidly
"To beat the shit out of you," Randi said in his heavy and ugly voice
"Oh, yeah," Alois said as he shut opened the washroom's door, "What, no one is here"
"You were expecting someone to be there?" Eiji said as he got relieved that Hefin didn't hide in the washroom
"Oh, no, no, Randi, why are you standing there? Start beating the shit out of this dog" Alois said
Randi started walking towards Eiji and grabbed him by his collar. Just before he was going to punch him, a voice came from behind.
"What is going on here?"
