Chapter 14 - They Fight.

"Normal life is a boring routine."

_____

Today there is no archery practice schedule so I can sit on the bench from morning to evening. If you find it boring, I enjoy it because I rarely get to experience this boring normal life. When you think about it, normal life is boring and what's fun is when life is a bit disobedient to the rules. Sounds like a naughty kid but I'm a straightforward child many judges if I'm full of unexpected actions. Yes, just like them. I don't want to worry about what other people think of me.

If you're curious about Jae-Hwo, he's currently busy memorizing math formulas so I don't have to worry about his mischievous nature. Transitional hours like this, if not used to copy homework, yes to gossip. Unfortunately, I'm lazy to gossip because nothing is interesting about today's gossip.

"Roosevelt, it's not boring being in class!" I turned to my classmate who was famous for being arrogant at this school. He often invites me to interact socially whenever I am in class or outside of class. Very friendly as we are, best friends forever until the end.

I exhaled. "Yeah, especially seeing your face like this. So boring!" Everyone in the noisy classroom suddenly fell silent.

No, they weren't silent because of what I just said but because Jae-Hwo just sneezed. Everyone looked at Jae-Hwo including me. There's nothing strange about Jae-Hwo's sneezing sound, it's just that his shining sound is like the sound of a kitten. Surprisingly the sneezing sound was soft but it could make the whole class' ears turn to him.

"Is he a kitten?" Belva teased Jae-Hwo and suddenly, Belva got a sharp glare from Jae-Hwo's impromptu fan.

"He's not a kitten because he's afraid of cats!" I'm sorry and I'm sorry I said it because Jae-Hwo who was focused on memorizing the formula now stood up from his seat with a sharp look at me.

Of course, I'm not afraid of that stare. Honestly, the look in my eyes is way scarier than Jae-Hwo's. Even the opponent was afraid when I accidentally looked into his eyes and finally the opponent's game lost because he was afraid of my eyes

"Roosevelt!" shouted brother Juno from behind the classroom door and it seemed that the one named Roosevelt was not only me but all the humans in this class.

Brother Juno smiled when I saw him. "Read my message!" Then he left after I nodded.

"Do you have a special relationship with him?" asked the arrogant classmate. Oh yes, his name is Arsel, not parcel or pascal.

"Oh oh, has Roos moved on from Axelle?" Darin teased and I wanted to punch her for carrying Axelle's name, even though it's not wrong to ask, my heart still hurts.

"Stop gossiping, the math teacher will be in class soon!" said Jae-Hwo who doesn't know since when he left the class because his position was now in front of the classroom door.

As he passed me, he glanced at me for a moment then continued his walk and sat behind me, swapping positions with Agnes. I suspect, he seemed to have heard what Derin asked earlier or he had heard what Axelle asked me so he looked so annoyed. But, why is he upset? I have nothing to do with him. Was it because he was afraid that I would experience the same thing as Axelle had done to me? Or, he's upset because he doesn't know anything about my life because I never told him. Yes, it seems the latter guess is correct.

I almost forgot what brother Juno told me to do. I took my cellphone and opened WhatsApp to see the chat from Juno's brother. My lips smile because brother Juno told me to see the basketball extracurricular later this afternoon because he wanted to leave something for sis Lovelace. Ah, brother Juno is the brother of sis Lovelace's lover so yes we are quite familiar.

My heart almost fell out when Jae-Hwo's smooth hands grabbed my cell phone then turned it off and pocketed my cellphone. "Have you gone mad?" I scolded him.

"Hey, Jae-Hwo don't be rude to Roosevelt!" Arsel shouted and the boy stood up from his seat, but the sound of the math teacher who had just entered stopped Arsel's movement.

.*.*.*.

At three o'clock the class ends. I rushed to the basketball court because I was going to meet Juno's brother. Before that, I caught the figure of Jae-Hwo rushing out of the classroom after returning my phone without saying a word while half running. It's okay because it's better than me arguing with him.

While walking to the basketball hall, I met a female upperclassman who asked for Jae-Hwo's cell phone number and I said that Jae-Hwo would prefer to ask for his cell phone number directly, not through an intermediary. Besides, I also don't have Jae-Hwo's cell phone number because he never gave his phone number and neither did I.

"Brother Juno!" I shouted to Juno, who was about to enter the basketball building carrying a dark blue sports bag. The same as my gym bag because it was a gift from his brother, brother Juno, as a lover of Sis Lovelace. The reason is so that we become acquainted.

"Wait a moment!" said brother Juno when I was in front of him. He reached into his gym bag for something. "I'm taking this for sis Lovelace and I want it to arrive at you faster because sis Lovelace and brother Gama are both busy working this week so it's hard to find them." Brother Juno gave me a small paper bag and I took it and put it in my backpack.

"Take thanks for your mother!" I said to sis Juno and he just nodded.

"Okay, I'll be extra first then!"

I nodded then turned around to walk towards the hallway that led to the exit of the school building.

My feet didn't step outside the school building, instead, I went to the library because I remembered that there was a biology assignment. I need a reference book to complete the task.

The school library will close at five in the afternoon because after school there are still some students visiting the library. Including myself right now. I'm looking for a biology book that I can use as a reference for doing assignments. After getting a biology book, I sat down on one of the benches reserved for one person. I want to be alone without interference from other people.

I've been working on my biology for half an hour and it's almost five in the afternoon. Luckily the task has been completed so I don't have to bother staying up late to do the work. I cleaned up my books and stationery and then returned the books to the previous shelf.

Just coming out of the library, my phone vibrates and there's an incoming call from Loretta. I picked up the call from Loretta and was surprised to hear the news that Jae-Hwo and Axelle were fighting in the park near Loretta's makeup course.

I quickly ran after closing my phone and stuffing my phone in the pocket of my school skirt.

They are both my friends and I won't let them fight because it will hurt their bodies. Moreover, Loretta said that Jae-Hwo mentioned my name and I'm sure it's because of me. Yes, Jae-Hwo did this to punish Axelle's crime of hurting me.

To be continued.
