I wanted to end the last entry on a cliffhanger for once.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq7G3iKH9N
Not because I was too tired to write or anything. Haha.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0us12qpXL
Who am I kidding? Being able to write again is already a huge step.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFQSksaYZ6
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9YFrSW8Xv
I'm doing better. Slightly.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunHsPNyANT
I went to class on Friday. Wait, was it Friday? Ah, yeah.
No one said "welcome back," or anything.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsZqHmgKrx
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHOjRLe7UO
"Where've you been?" Glasses asked.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwJmquPGSB
"I was sick."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wzT251HXc
And that was it.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjmiZInxvl
He didn't even raise his head from his phone to look at me.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAzMsQYaN4
The other idiot looked at me, shrugged, then shifted his gaze back on his game. 242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwibaG7yNxJ
"Lucky."
I didn't think I was expecting much, but I guess I underestimated myself.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9DEVIzr9f
They're... my friends. Yeah. It's fine.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFE5kpLum8n
I don't need any more than that, anyway. I can't have more than that, anyway.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdbNmjaqms
Huh? Ah, what happened the other day?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxM6MpaVN8
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.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeSm5S09wz
The kind of guy that everyone wants to be. On the outside, at least.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOunUeOUqQL
I like to think that no one really genuinely likes him but sucks up to him for the benefits, you know?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2roT1jTAbw
What a tryhard. We've exchanged the odd,242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDUUwjTgSt
"hey, have you handed in your assignment yet?" or,242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMwOCQjdlt
"you want to bat?" in a game of cricket.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRVXq1xoKu
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4GvxAIkRg
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.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kSEXEpd2x
Mr. perfect, and me, who's utter trash. On that day...
"You've got the wrong person."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNjJLM1jKm
I snatched my arm away and started walking. I didn't even know where I was going. Just anywhere.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG42iAoPvTx
Lucky I was wearing a hoodie.
There were no footsteps following me. Good.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgrRNuMuxP
I remember wondering, why in the hell was he out so late, anyway? Why did I have to run into him?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vdH3aoMIS
I wanted to die. In that moment, I really just wanted to bury myself in a hole.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PWUirkFho
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWwG8hcvvf
Fast footsteps approached.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZasftx31f
Two feet appeared in front of me. Then a face.
"What are you talking about, it is you."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RhOR1LBzR
"Sorry, but... I don't think I should let you go," he continued.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnfPnbm5W0
"I haven't seen you in class lately... you know what, let's go to the station together."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV1XPayoJO
I clicked my tongue.
"Hah, no one's here, so you don't have to play the good guy now."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP16OvU0tR
Strange. I haven't said anything over three words to someone in such a long time.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtz4NFUMod
It still felt like a dream at that point.
I glared at him. It seemed to work, because he looked anxious, and rightly so.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXNY9MlBqm
Maybe I should just kill him here, and I won't have to worry about anything else.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL5hilmUiU
And maybe I'll die myself, too.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxyC0eOzii
I guess it was a relief that I never went through with that thought.
"What are you talking about?"242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dlKkmKUbE
He reached for me, then decided against it. Haha, that was funny.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptpewWpbOB
"Look, if you don't want to go to the station, I'll walk you home... your parents must be worried."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3LLwpDmsj
"I'm not a kid. Plus, I live alone."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOddZiGmK7i
"Ah... no, I see... it's just that you don't seem too well... at least let me take you to the doctor."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RaNWkRz3z
"Why do you care? I'm not your responsibility."242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vka8Xy4Zd
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?"242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERU2qheoyr
Human decency? Haha. What is he trying to pull? There's nothing to gain from helping me. Saviour complex, perhaps?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVd86NFvX3
Playing hero.
"Shut up. I'm saying I'm not in trouble, so leave me alone-"242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvDUyk4fJ8
Before I knew what was going on, I was pulled forward.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvDp5ggzRM
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. 242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5tDpKWfIl
"Let him play hero or whatever he wants," I thought to myself.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDoEGu9Fcq
Hey, it was getting cold, and I lost my will to fight.
And that's that, I guess.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDRUn9IkRU
I was taken to the hospital.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ1yCwdyVv
It was a blur- forms were filled out, and next thing I knew, I was lying with an IV drip attached to my arm.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ6Yhnn5wJ
I remember asking the nurse how much treatment would cost, only for her to respond that it had been paid for.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOi2qwjHgvA
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.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiD9Es82AH
Beggars can't be choosers. 242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmFeV8fKqJ
As a result, I'm alive.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcazTD0cwpv
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyEJ3DOPU5
I'm not sure if I'm grateful, but I owe him.
But I can't bring myself to face him.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEa1048Py7
Why was he out so late?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScOcJwp70B
Why did he do all that for me?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaCOAX8nJT
There's no way he's that perfect.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uqoyulzMq
Did he want to have dirt on me?242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fv0TrCqj3
Was he going to brag about it in class?
On that Friday, he called my name during break.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXdAZRD4O3
I pretended I never heard him.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1kTIk8NNi
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB0s0O9nGQ
Mr. Perfect will always be Mr. Perfect.242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9TwuIu2st
And trash will always be trash.
