"Cherry Fowler! Cherry Fowler! Meet the Headmistress in her bureau." A girl next to me stood up and walked away from me. She was looking so nervous and anxious.
And the suspicious thing is that her surname and my surname are the same… Can different people have… same surnames? Is it… possible?
"Moon Fowler! Moon Fowler! Meet the Headmistress in her bureau, immediately." I stood up and ran towards the headmistress's bureau. I saw that same girl sitting in front of the headmistress.
Why is this girl still here? Ah…her name… Yah! Cherry Fowler. "My greeting, Headmistress." She just glanced at me and gestured for me to sit. Cherry was staring at me but I didn't look at her
"Moon, did you see Cherry fighting with any girl yesterday?" I don't even know how to answer the Headmistress's question. Because this is my first time meeting Cherry Fowler.
I looked at Cherry in response, she kept her hand in my hand and gestured her head as no that in a fraction of a second that the Headmistress did even notice.
"Moon, answer me!" I glanced at Cherry and said, "Headmistress, Cherry is not the type of girl who fights with others. So please, don't victimize her. First of all, investigate the matter perfectly then you will come to know who the victim is."
"I know about you Moon, that's the reason why I called you here. I will investigate the matter again as per what you said."
"That's nice to hear, Headmistress." She smiled and looked at Cherry then she said,
"Ok, you guys can leave now." I stood up and left the room. Cherry was following back to me. "Moon…Thank you." I acted like a deaf ear and went to the dormitory.
Soon I had a class so I went to the cafeteria first. "Hi, Mrs. Byrne. Can I have a bowl of black noodles with chicken balls?"
"Sure, sure dear."
I smiled and waited for her. The food here is free and we can eat or order according to us. It's all students' choice. "Here you go~ The tasty smell of black noodles is playing with the nose and throat. Have it, have it."
"Sure, Mrs. Byrne." I took my bowl of black noodles to the table I chose to sit down on. "Huh? What are you doing here?" I saw Cherry sitting on the chair I chose to sit on.
"I just… want to meet you." Want to meet me? But, why? She had fought with someone and said to the Headmistress that I'm the witness to her work. Tsk!
"Move from here and go find another place."
"Why? Can't I sit with you? Please, let me sit here." Hum…! I'm not in the mood to fight with anyone. "Okay, sit."
I placed my bowl on the table and started eating. I didn't eat my breakfast and now I want to fill up my tummy. "Moon…, Can I call… you…Idol?" Why is she disturbing me while I'm eating?
"Call as you wish but don't disturb me while I'm eating."
"Okay~ "
Ah…! Why did I help her today? I should have said that I don't know and that Cherry is tricking her. But…! I helped her out. Hmm!
I finished my food and was ready to walk out of the cafeteria. But, Cherry stopped me. "Idol, Where are you going?" What does she have to do with my whereabouts? "It's none of your business."
"Idol, why do you often act too strict towards me? Don't you like me? Do you hate me that much?" I'm getting late and this stupid is making me mad with her questions. I controlled my patience by pressing my thumb with another hand.
"Cherry, I don't like to be asked questions so don't ask me your silly questions and I even don't have time to answer them all. You better maintain distance from me." I directly went out of the cafeteria.
Oh! No! I'm late for my basketball practice. P.E.T sir is such a strict person he won't let me live in peace if I'm late to practise again. Last time, he punished me so harshly.
Because of that punishment, I was on leave for two days for hand and leg pain. I rushed to the basketball court, I'm the only girl in the basketball squad. So, I need to be as good as a boy.
"Moon!" Oh God, save me from this human. "Y-Yes, sir." I stuttered and went near sir to apologize for my late appearance. "Sir…"
"Moon, I'm proud of you. I'm really glad that I have a student like you."
What? What on earth is happening here? Is he proud of me? Sir is appreciating me, that's a miracle. "What are you staring at me, Moon?" Coming to the present I said, "I'm a little surprised, sir." He chuckled and patted my shoulders. "You have been selected for the basketball game which will be held next weekend." I'm over the moon! Whoa! I was selected at last. Superb!
"It's so amazing, sir." He smiled and nudged me with his hand. Walking to the bench I kept my bag and took some sips of water, but I suddenly spout the water. Hell! When did this Cherry come?! God!
"Hey, Idol! What a coincidence we met again."
It's my bad luck that I met you again. I don't know whose face I saw today that I received this much bad luck! Hell god, take me fast from here!
"Haha…, yah… what a coincidence…"
Ah….! I wanna cry out loud so that this god can hear my voice. Well, my voice is a little bit like a hoarse voice and I even have a small Adam apple. Long neck, long hands, and long legs. My height is just like an average guy, nearly 5'10. And because of these qualities most of the girls don't even like to be my friend or any boy but this girl….she's not even leaving me alone.
"Cherry! I'm here!"
A guy around my height called Cherry by waving his hand. She turned to me and smiled sweetly, and ran away near that guy. Ha…, what a relief. Thank god she left now.
Drinking the water so calmly like a ruler of the dampness. I just glanced at the basketball court and suddenly split out of the water when I saw Cherry catching my picture and waving like she was my fan. F**k! Why did she do these stupid things?! I literally hate fans…!
"Hey, Cherry. May I know what my snapshot is doing near you?"
She smiled like a cute girl child and waved my picture like it was her toy from childhood. She stood up and walked so close to me, making my distance from her I stared at her narrowing my brows.
"I want to be your fan and cheer for you, Idol."
Wanna be my fan? But why all of sudden? When the whole school including guys hate to talk to me but you wanna be my fan and cheer me up, don't tell me you're just fooling around me. I hate it the most…!
"I hate fans, Cherry. Well, there's no use of being my fan, no one will like you if you continue fooling around me."
"I don't care about them. You're my lifesaver, I just wanna thank you for saving me. Let me be your fan, please…Idol."
AH!! Seeing her puppy eyes and face…It's very hard for me to refuse this girl. Ha…Such a troublesome girl. I don't know why the heck I helped. But… you sound so special when you speak but more importantly troublesome…!
"Do as you please. I'm leaving now."
Suddenly, she caught my hand and looked at me like I'm breaking her heart into thousands of pieces and leaving her to die. What does that look for?! I'm doing any drama scene over here! Why the hell is she seeing with those wet eyes?!
"Are you leaving me again…? Why…? What did I do to you, Idol?"
What? What is she saying, bruh? All the boys are seeing me like I did a crime and broken her heart in pieces. What a drama queen, huh? When I did anything wrong then why do I have to shiver like a cat on an icy night?
"Stop your acting, No one is gonna believe you, ok."
"Is that so? Let's see."
Suddenly, boys and coaches rushed near her like she was a well-known celebrity and her tears flowed like a waterfall. What the heck? Even the coach is trying to stop her! Seriously!
"Moon! What did you tell her? Why is she CRYING?!"
"Coach, Are you believing her fake tears? Seriously! Hey, Cherry, If you're not gonna stop this, then I will say everything to the headmistress. Think about it."
I said everything that I wanted to. Her overacting had thrown me into the problem, bruh. Such a troublemaker that god gave me! No doubt, She's not a normal human being. Something crazy is running through her mind. Before leaving the basketball court I glanced at her, she was still playing her drama. Tsk! Go ahead with your work, Cherry, I'm not gonna fall into your cheap tricks.
"Hey, Coach. I'm leaving, have fun with your boys, Cherry."
I said loftily and walked away with an attitude. Outside of the basketball court, fresh air blew, carrying the fragrance of the blossoms. The way I feel them always reminds me of my Father's gaze. Those days were so beautiful when I would play with Father in the fresh air… I miss you, Dad… Hope you are doing well near god…
