Chapter 1: The Beginning of The Beginning (That's right, 'beginning' twice)
I hate school, I'm sure everybody once had that in their minds. But not me, I love school. Here, I can do something productive, talk to my friends, learn stuffs, but mostly, I can get away from my home. Yeah, because there's no joy whatsoever in my home. I live alone with my dad. My dad is an alcoholic, he never looks for jobs, he have many debts with peoples. Every morning, guys in suits always come to my home and asked where my dad is, I was told not to tell where my dad is. Everyday I had to do these part-time jobs to fulfill all my father's and my needs. Maybe that's why he and my mother got divorced. Damn it, when they got divorced, I got to stay with my father, and my little brother got to stay with her. Im sure he got treated nicely.
Now that I mentioned it, I used to play a lot with him back then. We used to venture around the neighbourhood and play tags together, I wonder if he still remembers me. I don't know.. Its been what? Three years? Im sure he has a lot of friends wherever he is now, he's a nice guy. I wonder how he's looked like.. I cant remember…
"HEY, what are you daydreaming about Jack?"
"Be quite. Im trying to remember something!"
"Oh is that how you talk to your teacher?"
Huh? Ohhh.. crap that's right. This monster is still teaching me, god… is it not lunchtime yet?
"Who are you calling a monster!"
Wait what.
"You've been self-narrating this whole time! AGAIN! If you want to recall your past everytime you come to class, do it outside!"
Self-narrating? Oh wait, everyone is looking at me. Oh.. am I thinking loud again?
"Yes you are Jack, yes you are."
"Ben! Why didn't you tell me man? I'm your best bro!"
"You're not my bro, we never talked. I just sat behind you."
Shit this guy, never wants to talk with me.
"Jack, if you still want to study, focus and listen to me. Don't keep daydreaming every class"
"Alright Ms. Ter."
"Don't call me that. Call me Ms. Terry."
"Ok, sorry Ms. Ter."
"You brat.. Anyway students, as for this problem you need to use this formula to turn this.."
That's my math teacher, Ms. Teressa. I like to tease her by calling her Mister, she doesn't like me very much. The guy sitting behind me is Ben, we never talked much, even though he sat right behind me. I don't really have that many friends in my school.
I know, I know I said that I talk to my friends at school, but all the friends I need is myself. Because, Im not really good with conversation, nor I'm athletic, or handsome, I always daydream in class. I think I have ADHD or something. All my friends at school always talks about games and all. While I don't really have any type of consoles because I don't have that much money. But I'm quite sure that I'm smart. I always get A+ on my lessons, except P.E. And I even almost skipped a grade once.
"Alright Jack! Answer this question!"
"3.14159265359.", good thing I've already answered that question earlier.
"Excuse me?"
"Oh? Arent we supposed to be studying circles now Ms-". Wait..
"No Jack, we're studying biology. Ms. Terry exited you classroom 15 minutes ago."
Oh crap. Math class is done already? I was daydreaming again.
"Haha, he's always like this!", shouted my friends
"HAHAHAHAHA"
My classmates are laughing at me….. Heh, no big deal, I got treated like this since middle school. Im not surprised they treated me the same in High School. Maybe this is why I don't have friends. What are friends for anyway, they'll just drag you down.
Or do they?
*Rang Rang Rang*
"Alright dude you wanna play Minecraft today?"
"No thanks, I have to pass, I got a lot of works today."
"Tch, don't be like that."
"Sorry but I have to walk my dog around the park."
Tch, you call that work? You kids don't even know what work means. Work is like what I do, washes plates, wipe the floor. That's work. Walking a dog in a park is not a work. Wait.. No Jack, focus, you gotta get home, get changed and go to work. Or your boss'll get mad at you. That's right, focus. Phew.
"Hey Jack!"
Hannah? Hannah is calling me? Why would she call me? Wait, don't get your hopes up Jack, she might just want to remind your class duty again or something.
"Yeah what is it Han?"
"You almost forgot your class duty, go clean the floor."
I knew it.
"And don't call me Han, you're gross."
I know.. But that's what everybody call her. She even asked to be called Han by her friends...
*sigh*
That bitch, why do I have to clean the class while the others can go? She must've hated me. Now I'm late for work. Im not that good with running. Im already exhausted even though its not that far.
That corner.. around that corner is my house's street. Alright lets make a run for it..
*thud*
Ugh. Goddammit. Somebody hit me. "OI! WATCH WHERE YOU-". Oh, It's a girl, damn she's pretty. She shorter than me, her hair is brown-ish orange and she's wearing a green hoodie. She's quite cute.
"I-I'm sorry!"
Oh shit now she's apologizing.
"No, I'm the one at fault here. Sorry.", dude this is so awkward. But I cant waste my time here.
"Well I need to go."
Wait-wait, go ask her name first.
"Um, excuse me."
"Yeah?"
Alright she's willing to listen. "Excuse me miss, but mind if I ask you your name?
"My name? Im Cupa."
"Oh, that's a nice name.", its not, what kind of name is that. I bet her parents name is like, coffee or cappucinno or something. xD
"You?"
"What?"
"How about you? What is your name?"
Ngh? What's this, has she fall in love with me? Nonono Jack, be realistic, a girl this cute cant possibly fall in love with you. Not you, this is not some kind of fanfic or some-
"Im Jack.", wait! Hey! Im not done talking here!
Shut up Realistic Jack! This is the moment of a lifetime you know!
NO NO NO, YOU shut up Imaginative Jack, there's nothing wrong with being realistic!
"*giggles*"
"?", wait, di- did she laughed?
"You're funny,"
Funny?
….
Wait.
SHITTTTT! I MUST BE TALKING OUT LOUD AGAIN
"Um- miss, that's not true, what I s- said about you is not t- true, its just something I uh- um"
"Thank you. Im glad you think Im cute."
*blush*
…
What's this? A girl didn't call you disgusting after you called her cute? Can this be love?
Oi Jack its almost time for you to work.
Shut up man, this moment must be treasured! :D
No seriously, you're going to get fired if you ever come late again.
"Im sorry miss, you're cute but I need to go right now! See ya!."
"Alright see ya.", *smile*.
Hmm... I think He might be compatible..
(This guy? I guess he looks quite strong.)
No you dumbass. He's too stupid. Did you see him? His expression changed as soon as he sees her.
(And.. that means?)
That means He likes her stupid!
(Oh. Yeah, that makes sense.)
Now all we got to do is to setup a plan to smuggle that thing to him.
(And how are we gonna do that?)
*chuckle* Leave that to me
