I wanted to end the last entry on a cliffhanger for once.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKORl2tJsVe
Not because I was too tired to write or anything. Haha.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96HLAneE6o
Who am I kidding? Being able to write again is already a huge step.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLdeJfS6dQ
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ80YF8lQw
I'm doing better. Slightly.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscxM8IfPAM
I went to class on Friday. Wait, was it Friday? Ah, yeah.
No one said "welcome back," or anything.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nR9h0AbE3
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBRqlMA0vs
"Where've you been?" Glasses asked.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9p3zIaBhE
"I was sick."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczcQ5cMAjS
And that was it.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2Gg0p7Q2K
He didn't even raise his head from his phone to look at me.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5t2q81k6A
The other idiot looked at me, shrugged, then shifted his gaze back on his game. 240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwTyEd7zqM
"Lucky."
I didn't think I was expecting much, but I guess I underestimated myself.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4PcWAeoUZ
They're... my friends. Yeah. It's fine.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLZZy8lGtU
I don't need any more than that, anyway. I can't have more than that, anyway.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07rhGF6MmO
Huh? Ah, what happened the other day?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte0uJm5P6o
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.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH42VKbd13q
The kind of guy that everyone wants to be. On the outside, at least.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwGjlmQ8Rl
I like to think that no one really genuinely likes him but sucks up to him for the benefits, you know?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqIvUB6uNT
What a tryhard. We've exchanged the odd,240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWHYshyTxT
"hey, have you handed in your assignment yet?" or,240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4mPz8pmqU
"you want to bat?" in a game of cricket.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfNZ4tdXff
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPqYPJKId1
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.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjeVA6xd8g
Mr. perfect, and me, who's utter trash. On that day...
"You've got the wrong person."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlArcsPnwA5
I snatched my arm away and started walking. I didn't even know where I was going. Just anywhere.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMrDAboJUR
Lucky I was wearing a hoodie.
There were no footsteps following me. Good.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqdPXrKYJr
I remember wondering, why in the hell was he out so late, anyway? Why did I have to run into him?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiZVBPDPKg
I wanted to die. In that moment, I really just wanted to bury myself in a hole.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XriAsXZa3
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTajEDnnwA
Fast footsteps approached.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje8TvWVICk
Two feet appeared in front of me. Then a face.
"What are you talking about, it is you."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuagWTBrfn
"Sorry, but... I don't think I should let you go," he continued.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwdHF1EW0Y
"I haven't seen you in class lately... you know what, let's go to the station together."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW0BhABH40
I clicked my tongue.
"Hah, no one's here, so you don't have to play the good guy now."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CchFO5Cck
Strange. I haven't said anything over three words to someone in such a long time.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCZvCpgt9L
It still felt like a dream at that point.
I glared at him. It seemed to work, because he looked anxious, and rightly so.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAUriTwUx1
Maybe I should just kill him here, and I won't have to worry about anything else.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48tDARkIBa
And maybe I'll die myself, too.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb2uIXEXyd
I guess it was a relief that I never went through with that thought.
"What are you talking about?"240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYYP0NykZz
He reached for me, then decided against it. Haha, that was funny.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJUng9iqSe
"Look, if you don't want to go to the station, I'll walk you home... your parents must be worried."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjb7UjdBKK
"I'm not a kid. Plus, I live alone."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar33DTmuCY
"Ah... no, I see... it's just that you don't seem too well... at least let me take you to the doctor."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhg1haHckUn
"Why do you care? I'm not your responsibility."240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD11xulDjmI
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?"240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK01aLFaPwS
Human decency? Haha. What is he trying to pull? There's nothing to gain from helping me. Saviour complex, perhaps?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPRaEiovXv
Playing hero.
"Shut up. I'm saying I'm not in trouble, so leave me alone-"240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHQl7PBcIf
Before I knew what was going on, I was pulled forward.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6neC88XZVP
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. 240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyXmO8SX8U
"Let him play hero or whatever he wants," I thought to myself.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDp2Q3ldeir
Hey, it was getting cold, and I lost my will to fight.
And that's that, I guess.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bYZ2eblKy
I was taken to the hospital.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgZFO9cUbL
It was a blur- forms were filled out, and next thing I knew, I was lying with an IV drip attached to my arm.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstKwnBRS1C
I remember asking the nurse how much treatment would cost, only for her to respond that it had been paid for.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3OEHn2aWZ
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.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JZXBC8i12
Beggars can't be choosers. 240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BTsRn5ycE
As a result, I'm alive.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oG8Mq6FsJ
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S3FcrifWY
I'm not sure if I'm grateful, but I owe him.
But I can't bring myself to face him.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLgZ5yPm92
Why was he out so late?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NHmJu7nHW
Why did he do all that for me?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9fiqOyYz1
There's no way he's that perfect.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRskNYzfsaC
Did he want to have dirt on me?240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9jwbtUWVr
Was he going to brag about it in class?
On that Friday, he called my name during break.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIVYg0aCwC
I pretended I never heard him.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWIWQADXiJ
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo27kMqZ6K
Mr. Perfect will always be Mr. Perfect.240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkMobS8DCe
And trash will always be trash.
