I wanted to end the last entry on a cliffhanger for once.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMzpDwHm1P
Not because I was too tired to write or anything. Haha.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNji5PNUgMY
Who am I kidding? Being able to write again is already a huge step.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OTXCUqLRj
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6NfzFTJVQ
I'm doing better. Slightly.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISCOM9ZzU5
I went to class on Friday. Wait, was it Friday? Ah, yeah.
No one said "welcome back," or anything.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTXi8IWp69
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2qq6Qtnua
"Where've you been?" Glasses asked.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgelUk90KxX
"I was sick."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRti3vsPC8z
And that was it.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI112VshZW
He didn't even raise his head from his phone to look at me.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn3XQouNkI
The other idiot looked at me, shrugged, then shifted his gaze back on his game. 316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuBVH3nIVu
"Lucky."
I didn't think I was expecting much, but I guess I underestimated myself.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ouCLb4JNE
They're... my friends. Yeah. It's fine.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaPkZ28xfe
I don't need any more than that, anyway. I can't have more than that, anyway.
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFCqg8JoY3
Huh? Ah, what happened the other day?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2WiFJpuWM
I thought I would get away with not writing anything, damn it. Hahaha. Sorry, must be lame reading a guy talking to himself. Er, writing, whatever.
I think I've mentioned the class prez once. I mean, that's all there is to him.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh1WDz9Skt
The kind of guy that everyone wants to be. On the outside, at least.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljcmSFMY7K
I like to think that no one really genuinely likes him but sucks up to him for the benefits, you know?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAsdfH3F1j
What a tryhard. We've exchanged the odd,316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHtE1eLZlG
"hey, have you handed in your assignment yet?" or,316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeSSoP4kUs
"you want to bat?" in a game of cricket.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkIHrbRLEX
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhcsKQXgAc
I didn't even expect him to remember my name. Well, I guess remembering everyone's names in class isn't hard after a while.
But it had to be him, of all people.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdQwxey3Yj
Mr. perfect, and me, who's utter trash. On that day...
"You've got the wrong person."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9pQoQKq8o
I snatched my arm away and started walking. I didn't even know where I was going. Just anywhere.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi88L0Q8Gk
Lucky I was wearing a hoodie.
There were no footsteps following me. Good.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWz6LXnbXD
I remember wondering, why in the hell was he out so late, anyway? Why did I have to run into him?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqO6wti5Hu
I wanted to die. In that moment, I really just wanted to bury myself in a hole.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jVAkfEKM5
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlzuVBtD7C
Fast footsteps approached.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1il4cRztJ
Two feet appeared in front of me. Then a face.
"What are you talking about, it is you."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6uwITqycG
"Sorry, but... I don't think I should let you go," he continued.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc5hIYjDVM
"I haven't seen you in class lately... you know what, let's go to the station together."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPkDJcv138
I clicked my tongue.
"Hah, no one's here, so you don't have to play the good guy now."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA5OVlBu9V
Strange. I haven't said anything over three words to someone in such a long time.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYpzekB4Bn
It still felt like a dream at that point.
I glared at him. It seemed to work, because he looked anxious, and rightly so.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCAvzG5lo7
Maybe I should just kill him here, and I won't have to worry about anything else.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1xvikhZi5
And maybe I'll die myself, too.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmtoTHiwPf
I guess it was a relief that I never went through with that thought.
"What are you talking about?"316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtv8F0KUNB
He reached for me, then decided against it. Haha, that was funny.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCTNTt2gcl
"Look, if you don't want to go to the station, I'll walk you home... your parents must be worried."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIJQbWVOuR
"I'm not a kid. Plus, I live alone."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2RQ7IY6BU
"Ah... no, I see... it's just that you don't seem too well... at least let me take you to the doctor."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZczzPuHtdZ
"Why do you care? I'm not your responsibility."316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2I01NE0QJ
Suddenly, I felt annoyed. A feeling I haven't had in a while.
"I know you're not... but isn't it human decency to help a classmate when he's in trouble?"316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0QJm6EfPm
Human decency? Haha. What is he trying to pull? There's nothing to gain from helping me. Saviour complex, perhaps?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7haqVvNSY
Playing hero.
"Shut up. I'm saying I'm not in trouble, so leave me alone-"316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccSQkzzsEu
Before I knew what was going on, I was pulled forward.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyXY4EE5Hl
I remember being prepared to utter a whole line of curse words, but when I noticed his grip shaking, I lost the chance to.
I was tired. 316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr1TWL87Bf
"Let him play hero or whatever he wants," I thought to myself.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMuEzITYJN
Hey, it was getting cold, and I lost my will to fight.
And that's that, I guess.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2RNArVtjF
I was taken to the hospital.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3O8hjdwT46
It was a blur- forms were filled out, and next thing I knew, I was lying with an IV drip attached to my arm.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNs4Fgkef4
I remember asking the nurse how much treatment would cost, only for her to respond that it had been paid for.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA8GAPV229
As humiliating as it was, it was conflicting. I don't know if I could've afforded it myself, yet I was angry. I was ashamed.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbal3cysDI
Beggars can't be choosers. 316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkId8Q54Wn
As a result, I'm alive.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTrxX6kuti
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7DHeRFTTK
I'm not sure if I'm grateful, but I owe him.
But I can't bring myself to face him.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSSXDEgFbJ
Why was he out so late?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OdQ5Jm133
Why did he do all that for me?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3cxt4vUjw
There's no way he's that perfect.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbImBqdDraJ
Did he want to have dirt on me?316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdWE1ZqxVr
Was he going to brag about it in class?
On that Friday, he called my name during break.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbEFlEa06E
I pretended I never heard him.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLxcmNYaIW
316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEAOf79HX9
Mr. Perfect will always be Mr. Perfect.316Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRio5uRwNCz
And trash will always be trash.
