Chapter two- footsteps behind me
When she had walked away, I opened it completely and stood up. I was about climbing out when my eyes caught something. I slowly raised my head up to see a blonde boy staring at me like he has seen a mystical creature that was going to eat him.
He didn't look to be Chinese, he had tanned skin and beautiful blue eyes. He was wearing the school's uniform meaning he's got to be a student here.
A transfer student?
He eyed me as I stared at him. At his body, he was so muscular and huge. If not for the uniform I would mistake him for a college student. He looks older than us but he was definitely good looking.
If my guess is correct, he's American. I love Americans, they are so hot and beautiful.
"What are you doing there?!" He shouted and I snapped back.
"No." I said in a hushed tone and placed my index finger between my lips. "Shh."
His shocked expression changed to a confused one in seconds.
"Hey I'm not a weirdo okay, this is just a really good hiding place that's all." I explained.
But that didn't help to calm him down.
Something lit up in his eyes and I saw the mocking look in them.
"A trashcan is a good hiding place and you're asking me not to think you're a weirdo?" He asked teasingly.
"Hey! I warned you just now not to think that." I shouted.
"Jack is that you?" I heard my name. From the sound of the tiny feminine voice, I knew who that was.
Gosh I really did to chill.
I panicked and tried to quickly think of what to do.
"Look what you've caused." I blamed the boy.
"Now what should I do? Is it back inside the trashcan or should I make a run for it?" I asked myself.
"Back into the trashcan caused I just passed a really pissed old man who's out to kill. You go that way and you're done." He advised then walked away.
Gosh, what is wrong with the boys in school today? They just come and ruin things for me then walk off.
"Jack I know you're around. I better see you in class or it's another after school in butthole." Mrs Zhu shouted.
"And you boy, what are you still doing outside?" I heard her say but I completely zoomed out of the conversation immediately so I'll be able to think of what to do next.
Those two evil couples are always out to get me everyday in school.
I have no idea what I've done wrong to them, all I did was come to school late regularly.
I mean is that I valid reason to hate someone?
I shook my head as I thought all these things.
I went back inside the trashcan and covered it just in case someone is passing, I can't get caught with all these efforts I've been making so far to escape butthole.
"Think!" I hit my forehead to see if anything will come into my head that way.
Suddenly an idea struck me.
I have friends in the three classes and have copied all their class periods and memorized them so I'll know when a class will be free from use.
And right now, the science lab is free.
I spied first to see if anyone is coming and I couldn't be more glad to see that the coast is clear.
I quickly got out and made my way to the science lab which thankful is in the same building.
I got in and locked myself inside. I sighed in relief.
My heart was pounding in my chest. This time I cannot get caught. And one day I will step foot into this school on time.
I went over to the window and opened it. I looked around and as expected, no one was walking about as everyone was in class.
The only teachers allowed to walk around were Mr Zhu the vice principal and Miss Meixiu, the science teacher.
Mr Zhu's job is to inspect the school every morning and since there's no science class this early morning she's going to be doing his job with him.
Thankful the science teacher doesn't hate me as much as Mr Zhu but she's still a no nonsense woman and won't let me off the hook.
So I also have to keep an eye out for her as well.
I looked around one more time and no one was coming, and I heard no footsteps which means no one is around or not close enough yet.
It also means I have approximately 56 seconds to run for it.
My morning class is down the corridor and if I take a right turn, I'll at the end then it will be a classroom away.
I checked one more time before climbing up the window and jumping out then I scram.
Just at the end and was about to turn I was face to face with two girls in the school's uniform chatting away but stopped when we almost collided.
"Woah Jack, what's the hurry?" One of them, Suzy, a cheerleader asked and giggled.
Ju was standing with her and was amused to see me too.
Okay let me just admit it, I'm a really lovable and amusing guy but right now, I don't want any of it and I want total silence as I try to escape punishment.
"Shh ladies. Please, not a single sound from your pretty lips." I put my hands together and begged while giving them a quick bow.
They looked confused but nodded anyways and I turned.
The classroom was being used and I could hear the teacher teaching.
I couldn't let whoever it was see me cause I'll be questioned and it will mean more time wasted.
So I bent down and crawled to the next class.
But I keep hearing footsteps behind me and my heart raced in fear of who that person could be.
