Chapter 4
WAAAAAIIIILLLLLLL!!!!!!
The doll started to cry again. I lifted up my head and looked at my digital alarm clock which showed the time was 5 a.m.
Cut it out, would you??? You've been crying since yesterday! If you weren't so scary-looking, I would have gagged you and shipped you off to Timbuktu.
I dragged my feet towards the doll and stared at it as it's cries got louder. Groaning, I picked up the doll with two fingers and tried to make it stop.
I hate to admit this, but the teachers are pretty smart to plan a project like this to prevent free sex. Which idiot would want a kid after this project?
Finally I managed to make that doll shut up! I crawled back into my snug bed…..
8.00 a.m.
"Wake up now, Miharu!!!," my step-mother said in an irritating sing-song tone.
I just put up my left hand in response.
"Get your sorry ass out of the bed now!," she demanded.
Wait a minute, I thought I locked my room door…..then, I saw she had a big bunch of keys in her hand. Great, she duplicated all the keys, so much for privacy.
"Whatever," I mumbled with my eyes shut tightly.
I was truly too sleepy and tired to get up.
"The teachers are complaining about your late attendance to school everyday," she scolded.
"Tell them I need my sleep. I'm a growing child," I muttered.
"UP NOW," she shouted and threw a glass of water which was just on my bedside drawer right on my face!
"Fwhm….Fwhmat??? (What?) " I spluttered, trying to speak with water in my mouth and nose.
"You heard me. Wake up! I have a few friends from your school and it's so embarrassing for me if I can't even get you to school on time," she said and covered her face with both her hands as if it was the end of the world.
Ahhhh…..my step-mother, the Wicked Witch of The North, cloyingly sweet at first, then very shortly became an enthusiastic ally in making my existence a frustrating misery!
I slowly got up from my bed and WHAM! One second on the bed, the other second I was flat down on the floor. The cause? My legs were numb from that cramped up, disturbing sleep I had. I dragged myself up and observed my room.
Despite having an evil-stepmother and her equally evil daughter, I do not sleep in some cramped up closet underneath the stairs and get shipped off to some school named Hagwarts in a solitude countryside. Oh, and no lightning bolt shaped scar on my forehead too!
My room is pretty spacious which is filled with posters of Lord Of The Rings and PS2 games posters. I even have my own TV and PS2 in my room plus, a laptop. I guess having a rich dad who's married to a witch with two maggots isn't that bad after all.
I quickly washed up and got ready for school. It was then I discovered I had used up all my rubber bands trying to shoot the neighbor's dog that evening. Don't ask me why I did that, I seriously doubt my sanity that day……
I finally decided to go to Sugiro's room to get one. I haven't actually been into her room for a few months already.
These are the 3 reasons why I do not want to enter her room:-
(a) Everything in her room is bright pink! ( yes, including all her furniture and stuffed toys ) which could lead to permanent eye damage.
(b) Her room has a very strong perfume smell which can cause your smelling senses to stop functioning.
(c) She blasts Britney Spears songs 24/7 in her room that disrupts my poor delicate eardrums that are not used to typical sweet, corny pop music.
Therefore, it is almost like jumping into a pool of radioactive waste to enter room. The last time I went in was only to plant a stink bomb in her room as revenge for telling Wairei my History test results. Very bad move. From two weeks of being grounded to two months! Life is never fair!
But you never know, people change. Maybe she doesn't have that hideous pink teddy bear in her room anymore!
I slowly opened her room door and entered it. To my surprise, I saw her room filled with posters of…………………Rukawa Kaede. Everything was still pink except the walls which was filled with posters of Rukawa.
Rukawa doing a slam dunk, Rukawa dribbling a basketball pass an opponent…..he plays basketball? It's amazing he doesn't drop the ball halfway during the game and fall asleep and drool all over the gym floor….Rukawa cycling on his bicycle, Rukawa in an incredibly tiny leopard spotted swimming suit….hey, that looks fake! …..Rukawa, Rukawa, Rukawa.
Just as I was observing this guy with spiky hair who was defending Rukawa in one of the posters, Sugiro burst into her room.
"What are you doing here?" she demanded, looking a little shocked.
"I need a rubber band," I told her.
She slowly took one and handed it over to me suspiciously.
"Why were you staring at Rukawa's poster? Do you even know him?," she asked.
"He's in my class," I said.
"Really!!!??? Don't you dare touch him or even breath the same air with him! He's mine," she screeched.
She likes drool-o-matic guy? Her taste has really reached it's lowest. Since when did she find guys that drool so appealing?
"He's all yours," I told her shuddering at the thought of even touching him…….
* * * * * * *
Money. Check. Pencil box. Check. Bag. Check.
Everything seems to be here, so why do I feel like I left something at home? Nah, it's probably the burnt pie that Wairei made for breakfast.
" My doll was quite well-behaved last night. It didn't……," a boy who was sitting behind me in the bus boasted to his friend.
Well-behaved? *snort* Mine was wailing the whole night like some cow being slaughtered. Maybe even worse…..SHIT! I just remembered! I forgot to bring the doll! If I do leave it at home, I'll be stuck with it for another night. NO WAY!!! I'm not going to let Dracula kid sleep in peace in his coffin...
"Waaaiiittt!!! STOP!!!," I yelled out to the bus driver.
After using some of my persuading skills, the driver finally kicked me out of his bus.
I quickly ran all the way back and when I rang the doorbell, Wairei opened the door. I took in deep breaths at a time while hoping she wouldn't slice me into tiny molecules if I reached the school late again.
" What are you doing here?" she demanded.
"I forgot to take something," I said meekly.
"What is it that's so important?" she asked, clearly pissed.
"My…My baby!?" I blurted out.
The reaction I got was very amusing. Her eyes opened so wide that it looked like it was going to pop out any second like those people in Ripley's Believe It Or Not! And her jaw dropped a meter. Definitely different from her usual I'm-the-best-human-in-the-world look.
"Y..You have a b..baby? I knew you were a useless sleazebag from the beginning," she ranted.
"No, it's not like that! It's actually a school project," I said.
She just stared at me blankly. I ran into the house and grabbed the the doll.
"What the heck? Nevermind, you're going to be late for school again. OH, my reputation! Ruined……," she moaned.
You have a reputation?
"You'll explain on the way," she continued.
"What do you mean on the way?" I asked, hoping that what I thought was wrong.
"I'm driving you there, of course," she said, as if it was the most reasonable thing to do.
'N..No, no…..no, I'm not getting into that car," I told her.
That's like suicide mission…..
She just grabbed me and shoved me inside her car. As she started the engine, I fastened my seatbelt tightly and said a silent prayer.
After a few heart-stopping moments, swearing from other drivers and close encounters with death, I reached my school in one piece and no blood was shed. [ A/N : Sorry, I can't kill Miharu. If I do, then there wouldn't be a next chapter ]
"Thank God for sparing my life. From now on, I will try my best not to surf for anymore nude pictures of Legolas Greenleaf. Amen," I said and ran away as far as I could from the car…………
* * * * * * *
Where is he? I told him to meet me here after school. Does he think he can run away from taking care of the baby? I fumed.
Pity me, as I type out our conversation in class today……
Miharu : I'll pass the baby to you after school today, okay? It's your turn to take care of it.
Rukawa : No.
Miharu : What do you mean no? I practically had to run all the way back home and survive in an inexperienced lunatic's car and you say NO?
Rukawa : Do'aho.
Miharu : You are going to take care of it whether you like it or not!
Rukawa : Hnn.
Miharu : You are SO going to take care of it. *doll starts to cry * You….Argghh….meet me in front of the school gate after school!
Rukawa : (silence) *sound of drool dripping down to floor*
Miharu : Shut up, stupid doll!!! *starts to pull out chunks of hair*
I should have known his non-existent brain couldn't take in this small piece of information…..but where is he?
"Rukawa is like, so handsome. He totally is, like the ace of the team," a fan girl squealed as she walked passed me.
"Yeah, like, totally. Did you see the way he like, did a slam dunk?" her friend asked.
That's right! He plays basketball. He should be in the gym! Rukaawaaa…..I'm coommiiinnnnggg…….
* * * * * * *
As I entered the gym, I saw Rukawa doing a perfect three-pointer. A group of girls in one corner started to sigh dreamily. I was dead surprised at the way he played basketball! He managed to score a goal without drooling all over the ball! And he actually looked good at playing this game.
Oooo…..great, he gets to play ball while I suffer with the baby…
Feeling my anger starting to rise, I shouted across the court," Rukawa Kaede, you will take care of our baby today whether you like it or not!"
I immediately regretted doing so when everyone stopped with whatever they're doing at stared at me………
Honest reviews please!!!
