A black limousine stopped in front of the gate, the driver got out from his seat to open the door for his young master. It was not the epitome of elegance but just a simple laziness.
That young master took his time to come out of the entrance like a newborn baby with the car as his mommy. And once he's out he greeted the sun with his chest forward and raised chin. He was looking prim and proper in the designated school's summer uniform, but the large number of trinkets without coordination on where it is placed made him look stupid.
This is Kyle Dividad, like the many who was his schoolmates he too is a second generation child to a wealthy parents. Born with money and a little bit of looks he had a high pride, like anybody else landing in his shoes.He basked the glow of warm sunlight for a moment before sauntering inside the school.
Feeling someone's gaze on him he stopped and locked eyes with a group of girls, he smiled and gave them a wink before continuing his interrupted gait.
The same thing happened once he got closer to the school building, the only difference is that the amount increased exponentially. He repeated what he did for the girls and harrumphed those of his kind, urging them to look away like his visage are only reserved for the women.
They are talking about me! Kyle thought. He consciously adjust his posture to the more proper way, and raised his chin pointing it to the sky when he saw them not only gazing at his handsomeness but also murmuring and pointing at him.
He felt that today god was smiling upon him. The wind is much fresher and the scenery is filled with colors, his steps became much lighter like he was walking on top of the clouds.
He did not found all of this strange instead he just accepted the fact that everyone—no, the girls' giggles are the sign of them falling for his oozing charms. He was about to head inside when he saw someone his type, she too with her less pretty companion was doing the same thing that everyone's doing, Kyle saw this as a chance and immidiately moved like an animal in heat, he displayed his own courtship by slowly comb his hair with his fingers while simultaneously licked his lips.
By the estimates he calculated in his meager brain he was so sure of her running in his arms and ask for advice about human bodies after class, but what he saw next nudged him from his daydreams.
The girl's face twisted in unhidden disgust before taking her friends hand and ran away from him. He felt confused but he just marked her as a tsundere in his head and made his way inside.
He entered the building, then like there was something in him that attracts their eyes, they all stopped and watched him. The nudge turned to push and the strangeness of what's happening wormed inside his mind.
Kyle did not let it bothered him too much and he walked towards the stairs, he unconsciously lowered his chin then tucked in his chest.
The hidden ridicule in each pair of those eyes gone unnoticed, however as he gone climbed higher steps he was slowly being affected, from being troubled, to irritation, and finally fear. Each gaze seemed to pressure his shoulders to lower and his gait to become much heavier.
In his warped perception among the 10 demons the 6 of them would creepily laugh at him, sometimes they would even open their mouths and whispered unintelligible words towards him, and their long black fingernails are pointing towards the small him pressing him down further.
When he finally reached the floor his classroom are his well ironed uniform was wet with his sweat and he was not even breathing normally instead he was gasping like it was not stairs that he climbed instead a mountain.
Seeing the door to his classroom he was like a lost man finally finding his home after a long time. He rushed forward and was about to open the door but it slide in front of him, a classmates of his that was about to go out stopped as he blocked their way.
Instead of getting angry the girls looked at each other before one of them burst out in a chuckle, the two soon followed.
"Hey everyone! Kyle is here!" the girl who laughed first shouted while the other two shove him inside.
Kyle found himself standing in front of everyone but the feeling is not the same as when he was called to answer on the board, if that is what happening right now then all he would do is smile foolishly but it's not. Now that what he thought to be sanctuary was compromised and almost thirty pair of eyes are looking at him with malicious glints, he finally woken up from his daydream by a punch straight in his face.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
Infected by the girls everyone laugh like they heard the greatest joke. It is so great that they could not even express all of their joy no matter how hard they parted their lips and tire their vocal chords, it was the greatest gag and he was the only one in this world who did not heard it.
Amidst the dying chuckles was Kyle who stood still like a statue. He did not experienced something like this in his entire life after all he was not someone to be laughed at nor being rudely pointed by anyone. Everyone supposed to respect and compliment him, that's why this golden spooned guy was dumbfounded by the current situation and did not know how to react.
"Hey Kyle look at this!"
He looked at his friend who's holding the phone, he was the one who laughed the loudest just a moment a go yet his face already wore a worried expression like a true friend would.
However his focus was currently not on him instead it was in the phone that was showing him a post with an eye catching title: QUESTIONABLE THINGS ABOUT THE IMPOTENT KYLE DIVIDAD.
His eyes shook but it dared to look for more and he could not stopped himself from losing his mind when he saw the first bullet.
HIS MANHOOD!
It was followed by a video with a thumbnail of him wailing like child that got lost from his parents in the mall.
...
I could barely stop myself from laughing seeing the video in my phone. It was about that fly who thrashed around his classroom like a madman.
It was captured by one of his goodfellows and posted it into the school's forum. However the admins seemed have their guards up after what happened so it was flagged down immidiately, still there are many who took a copy of it and posted it on the different sites. People are spreading joy from one another, it was like a festival! And that fly was the feast.
"What are you watching that can make you smile like that?"
I looked away from my phone and saw Mr. Ever-so-serious took a seat in front of me, I guess human's innate curiousity is so strong that even him was interested.
"Like what?"
"A wicked smile."
"Well, it's because of this."
I pushed half of my lunch towards him first before passing my phone to him. The video is short so he quickly finished watching it and he passed it back to me.
"That's the one who I told you about. What happened to him? Did you have something to do with it?"
"Not that much.
"I just helped by bringing the gasoline. He light it himself and the whole campus is fanning it."
"But would this stop him?"
"Oh, don't worry. This is just the start."
"Now your smiling like a villain."
"Sorry for you I am not the villain this time, but the hero."
We continued our chat on different topics while slowly chipping away my lunch. Just as I took the last piece of meatball out of my lunchbox I suddenly noticed that we seemed having a conversation like the usual, there were no sign of awkwardness at all.
This harmonious yet sometimes chaotic relationship, is this what frie—
"The money."
I stared blankly at his palm that was waiting to grab onto some hard cash. Sigh, I am not worried about this man's dream coming true, it would, but once he reached the top and looked back at the path he took will he smile?
"Here, the payment for your good job and the bonus are in there. You insenstive prick."
I passed him the pay envelope that I already prepared. He first opened and counted the bills inside one by one in front of me then once he was satisfied he finally responded.
"Why are you cursing me?"
"Its the truth."
After putting the big-ass lunch boxes back to its bag. I looked straight at him and seriously, the best that I could with my expression, said.
"I advice that you should improve your EQ."
Then I coolly made my retreat leaving him to process the words I told, I hope he did. I finally got back to him and was also able to do a great exit. One stone; two birds!
It looks like the streaks of bad luck I had already dissipated and now I am blessed with good weather after the rain.
A week without troubles! I pray to heaven, hope it passes its gates and will be stamp with the seal of approval.
