"Ge are you okay? What did the teacher say?"
"I am okay...I was just punished to clean the WHOLE auditorium for a WHOLE week." Feng said as he gave out a sarcastic smile.
.
"Hah, but didn't you say anything in defence? Did you just take all the blame on yourself?" Yuan asked as he raised one of his eyebrows.
"The problem was with me to start with anyway so why drag anyone else in. And...you just tell Ning I won't be able to practice with her this week." Feng said before he drifted to his nap time.
"(I feel like throwing up..)"

Flashback
Feng was in a good mood this morning and had made plans for their practice but it all got ruined when the teacher suddenly came and dragged him out of the room and seeing Ning in that condition made it even more worse.
"Yang Feng, Did you hit Tao Tao last Saturday?"
The teacher questioned while looking at Feng in anger and disappointment.
.
"Yes, I did hit him----"
"See! I told you, sir! I wasn't at fault yet he hit me in front of everyone!" That senior aka Tao Tao said as he stood from his seat making an innocent face.
"Son is calm, we know his actions have hurt you both physically, mentally and emotionally but you can't lose your calm like this. This is still a school." His mother who looked like a heroine of the 90s said as she smiled at him but turned hostile while looking at Feng.
.
"Though he as a student can't say anything but I as his mother want justice for my child. He is soon going to graduate and I know as a teacher you won't want such a brilliant child to end his school with bitter memories, will you? Sir."
.
"Of course not Madam, but we are teachers, not magicians. What happened just happened and it can't be changed, and as you have mentioned Tao is soon going to graduate so it would be better if he forgets this and moves on." The Principal who was a man in his 50s said as he looked at both the boys.
.
Everyone seemed pleased with his suggestion except for the son and mother duo,
"Right, my son would leave but he is going to stay here for another year, and that's what worries me. What if he does the same thing again? And what if next time it's not just a punch but something more severe, then what excuse will the school authority give?"
Feng who couldn't handle any more of their manipulative speech stood up and nowed towards them.
.
"I apologise for my misconduct, no matter how bad the situation was I shouldn't have got physical... I will accept any punishment given by the school authority and make sure that this situation never occurs."
As the words left his lips, a smile crept on both the mother and son duo.
.
"Looks like repents for his mistake which I a very good thing but still as a lesson he must be given a punishment a small one, hmm, how about letting him clean the whole sch--"
"Mom"
"I mean the whole auditorium for a whole week."
.
The teachers exchanged looks before smiling at her, "It's settled then, Yang Feng will clean the whole auditorium for a whole week as a punishment for punching Tao." The principal said as that woman smiled and shaked hands with him.
.
Feng had enough of all this and was ready to return to call when that senior suddenly held his arm.
"Junior, though we started at a rough page I hope you will learn your lesson and be in good from now on." He said with a very visible fake smile and as if that was not enough he even pulled him into a hug.
.
"Dumbass, I almost got scared with that confident face of yours, I thought you would bring that girl here and end my game but Alas, unlike you she doesn't give a damm about you and what happens to you." He whispered into his ears.
"Just shut up," Feng said trying to break the hug but without any bother that senior continued.
.
"Chill junior, stop running away and accept the fact that she is a self-centred, arrogant and coward girl, and that is what arouses boys like us but for boys like you she is a bad choice trust me and stop wasting your time on her." He said before letting him go with a satisfied smile on his donkey looking face.
.
"As a senior, I have shown you the right path now it's upon you if you want to take it or not."
Feng could feel cringe all over his body but it wasn't the right time to say anything to him so he just nodded his head and left the room.
.
On his way back his mind was full of what that senior said to him, one part of him wanted to accept it because that is what she looked like to everyone...
"Sir, May I come in?"
"Sir--"
Feng looks at the other owner of the voice, and his eyes meet with Ning's which looked at him guiltily and fearful.
Feeling embarrassed he turned to the other side.
But another part of him denied it because that is not how she looked to him....
.
Back to present,
"(Ahh, I am so damm confused! Just which one is the real you?)" Feng basically screamed inside his head while forcing himself to sleep.
