Bouzi Neo & Celeb Ryu
Chapter Five: Inside The Library
Dina sighed, "Girls, time is up for today. I'll see you tomorrow and remember that you can always come to see me." She looked directly at us, "If there are any problems."
Ryu and Neo got up, "Arts and Craft time… God damn this place and its schedules…" Ryu muttered.
"Do we have to go? Why can't we skip again?"
"Sure...I think the library's open...I need something new to read." I just stay silent. You'd think Mom could have afforded to put me in a nicer place…
"Oh, Neo!" Dina calls and she groans.
"What?"
"Can I speak to you?"
"Go on, I'll see you in 'class'."
Ryu sighs, "Come on Bura." She leads me to a small room covered with paint. God this place is like hell...
"I thought you were going to skip?"
"Yeah well I need to show you where it is don't I?"
I nodded and Neo came running from behind, "Bitch almost had me escorted."
"Why?"
"My absence and tardy records."
"Ah...she'll be wanting to see me soon, too, I suppose." Ryu muttered.
"Yeah, she wanted to know why I was late. Hmph. I just wanted to get Him's letter..."
"She thinks my relationship with Anthony is unhealthy..."
"She wanted to see Him's note. I told her it was a violation."
I stayed silent...Don't speak unless spoken to...
But how dare they ignore me... I mean they might be freaks but I'm a celebrity, I'm better than them.
They should include me!
"Then she wanted to know why I refuse to call him by his name..."
"She took away my computer lab privileges so I cant even read his emails."
"Yeah well at least they still love you," I mutter under my breath
"What'd you say, Perfect?"
"Nothing."
"Feel unloved?"
I growled, she has no idea what I've gone through.
"Ryu, why'd you invite Perfect anyway?"
"She didn't," I turn and start to walk away. Stupid freaks.
"Well then you're invited now. Come on."
I turn and follow them though I have no clue why. I am much more superior! I'd just rather not go to that arts and crafts… place…
"What time is it, Ryu? When are we gonna be able to go back to the dorms?"
Who would want to go back? None other than these two freaks in black lipstick.
"We don't get to go back till six for washing up then at seven is dinner and at eight is free time, but you aren't allowed in your room."
"Bitches." She sighed, "I can't go to the comp lab. Just cause I downloaded porn..."
"I can't because someone ratted on me for my messenger conversations with Anthony.."
Eww! These girls are Internet whores too?
"Banned together. Again."
"You've been banned before?" I asked.
"Yeah. More times than I'd like to count. We were both cybering and got caught."
"That's disgusting." I haven't even had real sex yet, let alone on the Internet...
"And then that time I went to that lesbian site."
"You're a lesbian?"
"No, but my fuck buddy liked them sooo...."
This is getting weirder by the second
We entered the library and Neo went off to read her letter. I looked at Ryu, "You read?"
"It's how I get through life…" She then walked over to the book shelves and started going through them muttering, "Read it… read it… read it..."
Neo came back, the black letter crumpled in her hand; her eyes were red. "Find something new?"
"Ugh not anything good...you okay? What'd he write this time?" Ryu asked.
"Nothing. I'm fine." She looked through the books, picking up some only to throw them to the side.
Ryu went to a table and took out her poetry book and started writing saying the lines outline, "Even though its a sin I'm gonna fight a war I cant win.."
Neo took a pad and pen out of her purse, black, and started writing. "He's gonna die."
Ryu looked up from her writing "Why?"
She handed Ryu the letter.
Ryu read it looking it over, "I don't know why you deal with him..."
"He slept with her.... And I can't force myself to blame him."
"He's an asshole." Ryu handed back the letter.
"Then he asks if we're still together."
"Asshole." Ryu repeated.
"Dear Wes...." She murmured, "Yes, we are still together. I can't bring myself to be angry with you. Isn't that sad?"
Ryu went back to her poem, "Put on my battle gear helmet and all my enemy must fall..."
"However, You now must choose. I'll see you whenever I can get my web access back, Neo."
"Into the battlefield to fight I know this isn't right..."
"I thought you said he was going to die."
She looked at the letter and folded it.
"And when I'm about to shoot I look up and so do you…"
Neo looked at the poem.
" And the enemy the face I see, I realize that, the enemy is me."
"Another great poem, ne Ryu?"
"I guess..." She shut the book and tucked it into her bag again.
"I swear.... Wes is so..."
"Stupid? Out of his mind? Not good enough for you? Select one." Ryu said
"Sweet."
"Right..."
Neo sighed and threw a letter to a pile she had created. Did she just forget being pissed off at him?
Then again, if Goten wanted me back, I'd probably take him.... even after...
"Dammit how to say sorry?"
"For what?" I ask, wait, why do I give a fuck?
She blinked. "I forgot."
Ryu went back to the bookshelves and got out a book, it was called 'She's Come Undone', "Guess I'll read this again..."
"I heard if you read a book five hundred times in a row, the words change. You at five hundred yet, Ryu?"
She laughed, "I lost count"
"It's a good book though, maybe perfect might like to read it too."
"I have a better book for her." Ryu's hands went back into the shelves and pulled out a book entitled "Kim: Empty inside."
I blinked. "What's it... about?" Never did read much, unless it was a magazine to see what my fashion scores were.
"A girl...like you..."
I nodded.
I flipped through it; it was a diary, of a girl with one of these so-called eating disorders. I put the book down, "I don't read"
Neo laughed a little and threw another paper to the side. What the hell's her problem? She's fucking obsessing with a guy who's cheating on her... of course... Goten...
Well he didn't cheat on me.... but what he did do...
"Ryu, I'm sneaking back to dorm." Neo interrupted my thoughts once again.
"Sounds good, I need to call Mom anyways." Ryu took the book.
She picked up Kim: Empty Inside and checked it out, while Ryu followed her with the book she got.
I sighed and followed them, I mean where the fuck would I go?
Neo's torn blue jeans dragged as she walked. She wrote 'THIS IS BLACK' all over them. Fuckin' freak.
I just noticed Ryu's shirt it said, "I'm not antisocial, I just hate you" Nice...no wonder they're alone.
Here I am. Bra. I'm hanging out with two freaks in a mental place. When the hell will I get out?
I'd ask mom but I can already hear what she'd say...
Doesn't she even care? She was so excited when we first started off....
But then when things span out of control...
Who's here now? Two freaks and...
Daddy.... he cares...if he could............he'd get me out...right?
But why didn't he save me? He left me... here... with them...
And Trunks...he only cares for pan these days...
Does he even know there's a world outside of hers? Of course that was the way it was... Goten....
So Neo has a soft spot for Wes, Ryu has issues with her family, and Bura misses her own family and friends. No Reviewer's Corner.
