I saw Canim and followed him to the parking lot, when he started his engine, I blocked his car and that forced him to get out of his car.
"What are you doing? Have you gone mad?"
I looked straight into his eyes. "I decided not to be weak. I don't want to die a coward. So what now?"
He smirked. "Get in the car."
Grandpa, I'm just getting started.
He took me to a place which I don't know since I am new to this kind of place and I am not good with directions.
"Wear this." he gave me some clothes so I immediately looked for a place to change clothes and immediately returned to him, when I came back he was already wearing the same clothes as mine.
"First, I'm going to teach you self-defense."
"That sounds interesting." I smiled.
"Not at all."
"What do you mean?"
"I know someone who hates learning learning this."
"Who?"
He didn't give me a response so I think it's confidential. Whoever she or he is, she must have a lot of people to protect him/her, well good for her or him.
Our session ended and I was now drenched in sweat so I hurriedly changed my clothes and returned to where we were earlier. I also thanked him and he offered me a ride home. I nodded since I didn't know how to get home either.
When we got to the home he immediately left and said he was going somewhere. I was about to open my door when someone suddenly hit my shoulder.
"Who was that?"
"Do you intend to add more wound on me, Alex?"
"Are you dating someone-"
"What? No!" I defended.
"Then who was that?"
"Just a random person."
"Do you call a person who drove you home a random person?"
I just shrugged my shoulders at Alex because I was tired and didn't have the energy to fight with him anymore. I went inside and left him outside.

I was distracted by the rays of the sun that hit my face so open my eyes and got up and that's when I realized that because of my tiredness last night, I didn't close the window.
I was waiting outside for a cab and was checking my wristwatch
when all of a sudden a big bike stopped in front of me. The driver was wearing all black and his body and face were covered, I was about to throw my bag at that person when he reached for it and grabbed my hand so I thought of kicking his eggs to make him let go of me but even though he squirmed and was in pain and he still didn't let go of me and he slowly took off his helmet and Antonio's face that couldn't be painted opened up to me.
"Kaesu, what the heck? Why did you kick my balls?"
"I was just defending myself, okay? I thought you were some kind of a bad guy, like a kidnapper or something!"
"What?! How does stopping in front of you in all black make me a kidnapper?"
"Well, you scared me! What kind of person wears all black and suddenly stops right in front of a girl in a deserted place, only you Antonio!"
"I was wearing black because it's my favorite color, and I stopped because I was about to give you a ride if you don't want to be late, and also for the nth time, it's Anthony."
"Well, how was I supposed to know that? You could have been up to no good for all I knew."
"This is ridiculous." He sighed. "Wear this."
He threw me another helmet that he was carrying and luckily I caught it immediately otherwise it would have fallen on my feet.
"You probably won't be barren, right? Besides, my kick was weak, maybe it hasn't broken yet."
"Just hop in."
"Will it be safe?"
"It's way safer than being kicked in the--"
"Fine, but next time, maybe don't dress like a suspicious character in a crime movie!" I rolled my eyes at him and put on the helmet before I hopped on his big bike.
"Hold tight."
"You don't have to warn me, I can manage."
He shrugged his shoulders. "Up to you."
He suddenly started driving his big bike fast and I almost fell so I closed my eyes and I suddenly held onto Antonio's waist very tightly.
"Scared of Big bikes?" I heard him shout.
"No... scared of high speed," I shouted back.
I felt the bike run slowly and smoothly the moments after so I slowly opened my eyes to see what was happening and I have realized that he slowed down his speed, and I couldn't stop smiling.
I asked him to drop me not far from the gate because I'm afraid some students might get the wrong idea especially now that this new guy is quite famous to some girls.
"Kaesu, where have you been?" as expected Alex and Lara clung to my arms the moment they saw me and I just greeted them with a smile.
"Looks like your morning is nice eh? What's with that big smile?" Lara teased me.
"Something good happened in your life this morning?"
"I don't think so, I just bumped into a beast this morning," I replied to Alex.
We separated ways afterward and they went to each other's classes and I decided to go to the comfort room when I felt like my bladder was going to burst. After I finished doing the call of nature I washed my hands and went out when I bumped into a random guy and when his tissue fell out I picked it up and was about to give it back to him when I saw that there was a letter on it.
'At the back of the building tonight, it is something important.'
I gasped the moment I read what was written in the tissue and when I was about to take a look at the person who dropped this, he left already.
I panicked for a while. I was distracted too much these past few days, I've been losing track of what I really have to do, and what I really need to finish.
And it's time to get back on it.
