It has been three days since that day. The four friends have separated, looking for new relationships among swindlers. Her heart is broken. She hates alone the most. As if, the world hates her. Moreover, the relationship between her grandfather and brother at home is getting worse each day. Every day they fight, throw curse words and things to each other, sometimes she become the victim of their anger. Her eyes are hot and her heart hurts. She had struggled for a long time to keep from falling, but now she felt defeated. She banged he head - which she rest on the wall of the warehouse - violently, wanting to replace the pain in her heart with pain that was easier for her to treat.
"You better stop it, before I have to call an ambulance because someone has a concussion."
A deep voice interrupted the girl's thought. She searches the sound source, from the back door of the school there was a tall, dark-skinned youth. The young man walked casually, with both hands in his black jacket pockets. His gray eyes stared intently at Luffy's figure, whom staring back at him limply, as if to judge her. With a heavy sigh, the girl averted her eyes and said, "What do you want, student council president? Want to sleep with me? Sorry, I'm not a bitch like other girls. "
A smirk plastered on the handsome face of the young man, "Of course you are not, since when a bitch hit the face of the man who teased her. Well, unless they are like that because of compulsion. "
Luffy still lowered her head when she felt someone sitting next to her. Her brown eyes glanced sideways, finding the student council president sitting leisurely, his gray eyes staring at the sky, a bitter smile painted on his thin lips.
"What are you doing here huh? Isn't the student council president usually busy and don't care about people like me?"
"Is it wrong for me to worry?"
"Of course, if you look at the behavior of those damn humans."
"I'm sorry; I'm not part of them. Instead, I hate them too. They are just like parasites in my eyes."
Luffy's eyebrows raised, her eyes gazing at the young man inquired. Understanding the purpose of the girl's gaze, the young man added, "One of my friends almost killed himself because of them. The reason is simple, they are jealous. Bepo is a good kid, also smart, even though he comes from a mediocre family. Alas, the world is full of malicious humans. They spread false news about Bepo to the point he could not stand it anymore. If it weren't for Zepo coming home earlier than usual maybe I would lose one of my best friends. "
Luffy doesn't want to believe it. However, seeing that look, the deep hatred and the anger that had been buried for too long, made her believe that he was telling the truth. But there are still something ...
"That's not all, right?" she asked cautiously.
Their eyes clashes, before the grey-eyed youth look back to the sky, "Even if there is, it doesn't mean I want to tell you."
Luffy looked at him deeply, trying to see his expression, understanding what he was thinking. The opponent's expression is hard, with eyes that stare hatefully at the sky, as if remembering dark memories, and angry at his fate. Putting herself in Law's position, she understood. She also would not want to tell her past to someone with whom she just known. She was not even sure if she dared to tell her friends.
A sigh pulled her from her thought, her eyes glancing to the origin of the voice and found Law giving her a bitter smile, "But I can tell you, that a rumor has destroyed the people I love. I just don't want you to be the same as me. Too many people in this world have been destroyed because of false rumors. "
Luffy was stunned. Her face turned red, her eyes filled with tears, her heart felt like it was being squeezed by something. She shouldn't be this emotional, but alas, she's already tired. Getting this unexpected helping hand was enough to make her sad, yet happy at the same time.
Her small hands reached out and embraced the young man beside her. She couldn't hold her tears anymore. She burst into tears on Law's shoulder, ignoring the young man's efforts to push her. 5 minutes passed and Law finally gave up, choosing to cling to the girl clumsily, stroking her short black hair with trembling hands.
They sat in that position until Luffy stopped crying. They let go of the hug and distanced themselves from each other with blushing faces, Luffy herself did not know if the red color on her face was because of crying or something else. The two of them did not look at each other; silence enveloped them, which was sometimes broken by Luffy's sniffs.
After a few minutes, Law said, "But that doesn't mean I do this with a sincere heart. I also have my own goal of helping you. "
Luffy turned and looked back at the gray-eyed teen.
"I think I know who spread those rumors, and if my guess is not wrong, then that person is the same person who has ruined the reputation of many people in this city." Law continued with a serious face.
"Who?"
Law took a deep breath and said, "Donquixote Doflamingo. Our school principal. "
