Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3 - Confession and Delusion

Niño looked at Tristan with frustration and concern and said, "Dude. It is 97.89% guaranteed that you will be rejected."

"Don't be that hopeless. She is showing signs that she likes me." Tristan said.

"Nah. When you like someone. You become delusional, hoping that your crush likes you back. But it's only a delusion. She's friendly to everyone. You will surely fail," Niño replied. Tristan started to consider the philosophical words of his nerd friend.

However, Tristan disregarded what Niño was saying and approached Ms. Popular. "He-hi P-Pa-Pam," Tristan said with a stuttering voice. He couldn't look at Pam directly. Niño, who is still sitting on the bench, slapped his own face.

"Oh Hello, Tristan. What is it?" Pam said while playing with her long blonde hair.

"She's playing with her hair and she cannot make eye contact with me. It's a sign! The worst she can say is 'No.' Let's do this!" Tristan said to himself.

"Ummm... I - I - I like you. Will you go out with me?" Tristan said with bravery.

The girl blushes. A few seconds passed, The blush turned into disgust.

"Eeeeewwwww!" Pamela said with an uncomfortable face. It was a blush of disgust not love. "Stay away from me, weirdo."

Pam ran away from him. Her two other friends glared at Tristan like their eyes are going to throw a sharp dagger then proceeded on following after Pam.

Tristan stood still and said not a single word, he looked pale. The video game Niño and he are currently playing on their phone is now over. The video game's sound effect said "You are Defeated."

Niño tapped Tristan's left shoulder. "Let's go. Wanna eat street foods on our way home, especially 'The Bananas Wrapped in Caramelized Sugar?' My treat." Niño said with an encouraging tone. The two walk into the hallway and leave the campus.

In the female restroom of the school.

Pam and her friends are talking in front of the restroom mirror. "Eww. Eww. Ewww." Pam said to her friends with a sick face while putting on her red lipstick.

"He even had the guts to look at you with a creepy smile like that. What a pervert, he keeps on staring at your body." One of Pam's two friends said while washing her hands.

"Honestly, he is cute but creepy and weird. Not my type. I'll make that pervert suffer!" Pam said with an angry face.

"A Red Flag. Haha" The other girl said.

A short-haired girl wearing glasses entered the bathroom. She saw the three girls in the bathroom mirror. The three looked at her with a sharp glare.

"Look what we have here, The Bookworm," Pam said and approached her.

Without any reason, Pam slapped her face. The slap was loud. "Oops, my hand slipped. Hahaahhhahha." The bookworm girl's glasses dropped onto the wet bathroom floor. The two girls behind Pam took a picture of her on their phones while she was crouching on the floor to get her eyeglasses.

The girl stood up. Her right chin is now red from the slap.

"Sorry, It's just that, I'm just in a bad mood right now. You know. How are you, you ugly freak?" Pam said with an intimidating voice.

"I'm fine," The girl replied with a small voice. "You should learn to correct your grammar first." The girl said in her mind.

"Okay, Smile." Pam quickly took a picture of the girl's devastated and frowning face with her phone. "Hah. You look good in this photo." The other girls looked at it too.

The other girls laughed with Pam. "Ahahhahahaahah."

"Mind if I post it online? Many people will love this. You won't get upset, right?"

"Yes." The girl said with a soft small voice while looking down. She can't utter another word.

"Good. Girls let's go." Pam left the comfort room. The other two girls followed her. "This will be fun." Pam smiled while looking at her phone.

They were laughing.

Somewhere in Luzon. In the headquarters of the Liga, a secret organization of teenage agents. The inside of the headquarters is as large as a mall and is located underground. Less than twenty busy teenage agents are doing their daily tasks, paperwork, and encoding.

The masked guy from earlier is walking with the hacker and the female archer towards a briefing room which is located in the center of the large headquarters. The masked guy and the other two are now wearing a black suit with a red neck tie exclusive to the agents of Liga. Typical secret agent uniform.

A man in the chair is waiting for them. He is looking at a 32 inches large curved screen monitor in his office. The three agents entered the room. They stood in a straight line with arms on their back.

The man in the chair turned around from his rotating chair and greeted the three. The man is in his twenties, and has a manly appearance and a mustache. He is the Head Agent of Liga and is wearing a black suit with a black stylish necktie.

"Welcome, Agent Leon, Agent Agila, and Agent Kobra you did a very good job obtaining The Book of True Paradise. Your first Class A mission and a stepping stone toward eradicating the new syndicate that is rapidly rising to power."

"Thank You, Sir." The three agents replied in sync.

"Now my elite agents, are you ready for your second Class A mission?"
