The friend group was chatting, in the playground while sitting under a tree, the atmosphere cold however it wasn't too cold, it's November afterall, it's almost December.
Ares sitting on the bench with his left leg on the bench and his arm resting in his knee. Xemi sitting next to Ares, to his right while Kiki and Vera sits on the thick and fluffy grass as there was no space on the bench, Ares and Xemi took it all, with a space between Kiki and Vera since Ivan was sitting there, until he had to go to the nearby washroom as he got a nosebleed.
Vera hugging her right leg and leaning to the tree while she yapped about what happened when she told to stay back after school yesterday.
"You guys know how I got told to stay back after classes? Of course you know, anyways uh, so I don't know why but this History teacher was my teacher when I was in grade 6th and 7th suddenly said he'd give me tuition everyday after school because my grades is history are BAD—
"You're bad in every subject" Ares interrupted before he was told to shut up by Xemi so Vera could continue.
"It's only History I'm bad at, anyways as I was saying he suddenly told he'd tutor me after school, like I don't know if he needs money or not but I declined IMMEDIATELY, but since he insisted on giving me free tuition for that day only, I being the kind and humble girl agreed. He was telling me about the dinosaur days of kings and queens, he told me to take out my content book, and thats when I realised I never bought my History content book, I forgot it at home." Vera paused as she sighed shaking her head.
"Aaah... Than? What happened next, did he continue for just give up" Xemi asked leaning forward, she was interested in the story.
"... no ... I mean he did continue but worse... He sighed, narrowed his ugly curly crusty musty dirty eyebrows, and said 'Oh my God Vera, how can you forget your content book?' and I'm like so sorry Mister I can't control what I want to forget or remember! I didn't actually say that, I only said 'I didn't bring it because I kept it somewhere and forgot about it' and he's like 'How can you forget when you're the one who kept it? How did you even study during your History period? Please tell me Vera, I really want to know' and when I tried to tell him that there was no History class today to begin with, he KEPT on yapping and yapping and suddenly he leaned his hairy face close to mine saying 'I don't know how you managed to study, but please, please tell me what your plan for today is, what will you do without a content book, like EW EW EW EW EW get away from meeeee"
"That's a p*do right there!" Xemi gasped, as she made a disgusted face.
"Huh? P*do? Where" Asked Ivan, poping out of no where kind of worried since he heard Xemi saying 'That's a p*do right there'
"It's nothing, she's yapping about her previous History teacher" Ares shrugged.
"How's your nose bleed now,Ivan" Kiki turned his head to his right, looking over his shoulders.
"It's alright now, it was just some allergy."
"Shush all of you, Ivan, sit down and listen to my story" Vera said with a smirk before continuing. "As I was saying, that damn teacher moved his face closer to mine, like leaning in with his hands on the table, and since I never liked him and got a really bad vibe from him even if he was married with a daughter, he always had his weird smile around girls, not woman but girls, especially the lower graders since they were all innocent that time not now since they're all 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 now days, and than he continued on, 'So, what did you even do whole day? Just stare at the board without your history content book? Do you know how important history is? History is this and that, blaa to bleh and bla, you're still the same bla bla bla, never paying attention in History period bla bla' and he just won't shut up I had to make and excuse saying my stomach was hurting and he FINNALLY, let, me, go." She ended with a tired and annoyed face since it was her previous History teacher she was talking about.
"He's showing such an attitude! What does he even mean by ' You're still the same' it's very obvious you've become smarter!" Xemi complained with her hands crossed.
"He has a wife and children but you still think he's a p*do?" Kiki asked, tilting his head slightly since he was curious, his cat like smile never fading.
"Yeaaah, you know some p*do's marry and get children to not look suspicious?" Vera put her leg down and crossed them since they were becoming numb.
"Hm, if that's actually the case, about him actually being a p*do, I'm worried for his daughter."
No one said anything after Ivan said that, none of them ever thought about
"Ivan, I don't think a father would see their daughter romantically"
Kiki layed down on the grass, his hands under his head "Ares might be right but some weirdo's are like that"
"That's so disgusting..." Xemi shivered as she hugged herself.
"I... I agree with Xemi" Vera scratched her neck, thinking of what to do to change to subject, before looking at Xemi, and communicated through moving their eyebrows up and down.
Xemi cleared her throat before opening her mother to speak.
"My microwave is of Gucci what's yours—"
,
"Tisbah 'ala khair, Ares and Ivan" Xemi waved them goodnight as she entered her house.
Ares and Ivan went to drop Xemi because they heard that short people get kidnapped more, not to worry about Ares, he can defend himself without anyones help.
"Ivan, I'm going too. Bye" Ares said before putting his hands inside his pants pocket to warm his hands. Who won't want to warm their hands when the night is cold.
"Oh, Tisbah 'ala khair Ares." Ivan answered back to Ares saying Goodnight, before he took, took his own path, but he didn't get to walk home unfortunately since a black rolls royce drove by him, the driver and Ivan seem to be familiar with eachother. Ivan hops in the car, and the black rolls royce makes its way to the house.
The friend group was different from eachother in lots of ways, even if they sometimes share some similarities in their personalities or childhood. One of the difference is that, Ezekiel is Jewish, Vera is Christian, Ivan, and Xemi are Muslim, while Ares? He isn't religious.
But they get along even if they sometimes they argue about small things, they respect eachothers religions, even Ares respects his friends religions.
