Chapter Three: Proposition.
ZANDi and otaku walked to school talking about possibilities of who gave all the money or if it could have just been a full house. And when they reached the school house ZANDi being her clumsy self, ran into, quite literary, an unsuspecting silver haired female.
ZANDi: oops! Gomenasai!
Valerie: oh hey ZANDi, I knew we we're gonna run into each other but I didn't expect it to be this literal :laughs:
A boy with short spiky black hair walks up and slaps Otaku on the back
Zachariah: hey there guys, cool show yesterday! But how do you guys know Hitakamari Tomikayasa?
ZANDi: huh?
Zachariah: the guy sitting up front?
ZANDi: oh yeah! Well, he got me outta a…tough spot…:sweat drop:
Valerie: you mean Roger caught the uncatchable ZANDi?
ZANDi: well, the main thing is that im not in some homeless shelter now am I? Im not in juvenile hall, im not even in trouble! So I still keep the title thank you!
Zachariah: I thought that you two were gonna stop that!
Otaku: well the people arent paying as much as they used to…and we ran out of food about a week ago…so we did what we had to do.
Valerie: oh! Poor guys! Here take thi-:gets cut off:
Otaku: we don't need that, some how we managed to make triple what we usually do.
Zachariah: that's funny, I was sitting right next to where it was coming back and there was hardly anything in there…
A bell rings
Valerie: well I suppose we'd better get to class! See ya!
The rest of the day continues without anything too exciting until the end of lunch.
A boy stands on top of a lunch table and starts yelling.
Kaleb: hey ZANDi! I suppose you wont be going into any other "entertainment" areas! Not even one you're better suited for!
ZANDi: What are you hinting off Mitsuguri?
Kaleb: Oh nothing, just that you should stop playing Houdini and should start playing HOOKER! You'd make more than three dollars a week that way!
ZANDi::outraged: YOU GET YOUR LITTLE ASS DOWN HERE AND SAY THAT TO MY FACE!
Kaleb: oh yes, how could I forget::is getting off: I have to bow down to the goddess in rags::walks toward her:
ZANDi: you little PRICK::kicks him in the balls:
Kaleb: no worse than a Whore::punches her in her face:
ZANDi: you little rat! You disrespectful little snot::nose is bleeding: you are lucky I don't cut your balls off with a dull rusty butter knife!
Kaleb: and your so anxious to get down there?
Mr. Hamilton: what in the world happened here!
ZANDi: he called me a whore so I kicked him, then he punched me in my face.
Mr. Hamilton: well, both of you go down to the office and we'll settle this there.
The two teens walk down to the office with the tall bulky principal in between them
ZANDi::thinking to self: ' I do not understand how girls think that either of them are dreamy…they're both jerks and perverts. I hear that he used to be a teacher here until he got promoted to principal, if only they knew what he did, he used to give girls detentions for no reason and then try to have sex with them…and Kaleb is no better.' huh?
Mr. Hamilton: I said have a seat
ZANDi: oh, right. :sits down:
Mr. Hamilton: now please explain what happened. Lady's first Ms, what's your last name again?
ZANDi: umm,
Kaleb: she doesn't have one,
ZANDi: yes I do::makes a face: its Kaiba
Mr. Hamilton::taken aback: and umm, who did you say your mother was?
ZANDi: I didn't, but I don't think that's the problem at hand and I don't think that will solve anything.
Mr. Hamilton: umm right, now you start miss Kaiba.
ZANDi: I told you what happened! He called me a whore, oh wait im sorry, he said I should be one, and then I kicked him in the balls and-
Mr. Hamilton: why did you kick him?
ZANDi::growls: because he insulted me, and the way I live. Anyways as I was saying, then he punched me and then I threatened to cut his balls off with a dull rusty butter knife and that's where you came in.
Mr. Hamilton::turns to Kaleb: anything she left out?
Kaleb: no sir.
Mr. Hamilton: well seems to me like you we're asking for him to punch you.
ZANDi: what? He's the one who…gahh! Never mind!
Mr. Hamilton: now you both have to call a parent or guardian, you'll both be suspended for two days and you'll both have detention for a week.
Kaleb called his parents and told them then handed the phone to ZANDi who at the moment had a very worried look on her face.
Mr. Hamilton: and ZANDi, ill need to talk to your mother. If she's available
ZANDi: she died when I was born.
Mr. Hamilton: oh, im sorry
ZANDi: whatever::thinks to self: 'well that wasn't much of a lie…now who the hell am I gonna call?…oh wait! I have Hita's number!'
She dial's his number hoping he would answer. Then someone answered.
Hita: hello?
ZANDi: hi
Hita: oh hey ZANDi, what's up? And why are you calling from school? What happened?
ZANDi: umm, I got into a fight and I got suspended for two days and the principal told me to call you and tell you.
Hita: why? Oh, never mind I get it now…okay well I suppose ill be seeing more of you fer the next few days then?
ZANDi: I suppose, okay ill talk you later then, lo- :stops self: bye
She hangs up the phone.
Mr. Hamilton: okay now that that's settled, Kaleb, you may go, and ZANDi I'd like to talk to you.
ZANDi: yes?
Mr. Hamilton: who did you call?
ZANDi: who you told me to call
Mr. Hamilton: I told you to call a parent or guardian not a boyfriend.
ZANDi: he's not my boyfriend::blushes:
Mr. Hamilton: okay, but I know that wasn't a parent or guardian
ZANDi: he's my guardian. Now may I please go now?
Mr. Hamilton: I suppose
By the time she got out of his office it was already time to go and there was a crimson red corvette convertible sitting out front with Hita in the drivers seat. Luckily she had a pair of trendy sunglasses in her purse along with make-up of every kind gifts from her dear friends Valerie and Lykata so her black eye was less noticeable.
Hita: so who's the chick you got into a fight with?
ZANDi: umm…it wasn't a…girl?
Hita: you mean some bastard hit you?
ZANDi: yeah but it wasn't anything big
Hita: like hell it was, I don't care what happened, men don't hit girls. Let me see, where did he hit you?
ZANDi: my face
Hita: take off your glasses.
ZANDi: no, like I said, its nothing, and its too bright to not wear sunglasses
Hita takes off her glasses but the makeup is still covering the bruise
Hita: uggh, make-up too? come on now ZANDi, and if it really wasn't that bad then you would let me see.
He gently lifts her head up by her chin, ignores the look of frustration on her face and wipes off the layers of makeup she put on. When he looks back at her face, a black and blue bruise encircles her eye and part of her face on the left side. ZANDi then turns her head away.
Hita::serious: who did this?
ZANDi::silence:
Kaleb walks over
Kaleb: what kind of shit are you trying to pull ZANDi? You know as well as I do that you don't have parents or a last name!
ZANDi: what does that matter?
Kaleb: then who did you call?
ZANDi: that's none of your business
Kaleb::turns to walk away: whatever you little hooker
Hita::hops out of car: excuse me but are you the disrespectful little asshole who gave her the black eye?
Kaleb: and so what if I did?
Hita: I have a little something for you
Kaleb: oh really :begins to turn around: and what would that b-
Kaleb: oh really :begins to turn around: and what would that b-
Kaleb is cut off by being punched in the cheek by the older man.
Kaleb gets up slowly holding his face trying to recuperate from the shock that he just got hit in the face.
Kaleb: What the hell is your problem?
Hita: You need to be taught a lesson in manners, you DO NOT hit a girl no matter what.
Kaleb: Ha! I'll do whatever I please, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Hita: I was hoping you wouldn't say that, I don't feel like getting blood on my clothes.
Kaleb: Oh-ho! This is rich, you think your gonna beat me up:laughs: Try it old man!
Kaleb and Hita raises their fists to fight each other. Kaleb decides to make the first move and charge at Hita punching with his right fist. Hita easily side-steps it and brings his knee up and drives into Kalebs abdomen.
Kaleb: Oof:gasps: you'll pay for that!
Kaleb turns towards Hita and swings with his left fist from the side. Hita steps backwords and the fist flys through the air in front of Hita. The force throws Kaleb off balance and turns him around so his back is towards Hita. Hita takes advantage of this and dives in and grabs Kaleb in a Full-Nelson head-lock and, throwing his weight, brings Kaleb down to the ground face first.
Kaleb: AAGH! Get offa' me you bastard!
Hita: Your gonna apologize to ZANDi, or your gonna be making out with the ground for a LONG time.
ZANDi: Oh Hita, don't! It's okay, I'm fine! He doesn't have to apologize!
Hita: Yes he does ZANDi. He needs to learn that it's wrong to hit a lady and he needs to pay the price for doing so already
Kaleb: I ain't apologizing to a whore like her!
Hita picks up Kalebs head and smashes it into the ground.
Hita: What was that? A whore huh? You just don't learn do you? You :smashes head into ground again: treat women with respect! Now apologize! I got nowhere else to go and nothing else to do today, so I can keep this up for a very long time. I suggest you do as I say.
Kaleb: Fuck you! I'm not doing shit you say.
Hita: Damn boy, you got guts, I give you that. But you will submit.
Hita picks Kaleb up still in the Full-Nelson. When they are both standing, Hita pushes Kaleb away and turns him at the same time. When Kaleb turns around, Hita swings with his right fist and hits Kaleb right in the left jaw. Kaleb is knocked off of his feet and flies five feet away. He lands and stays down on the ground, not moving. Hita walks over and gets down on the ground next to Kaleb and grabs his throat.
Hita: Are you gonna apologize now? Or am I gonna have to give you another lesson in manners::Picks Kaleb up and carries him to the car next to the door ZANDi is in: Hey ZANDi, I believe our little friend here has something important he would like to say. Am I right?
Kaleb lifts his head slowly revealing to ZANDi that his left jaw is purple and looks somewhat broken.
Kaleb: I-I... I'm sorry...
Hita: :shakes Kaleb: For?
Kaleb: I-I'm sorry for hitting you...
Hita: and?
Kaleb: a-and for calling you a whore... :hangs head down in shame:
Hita:turns Kaleb around so he's facing Hita:says in low voice, bringing Kaleb's face close to his: Good, now hopefully this will have taught you not to hit a girl. If I ever get word of you doing it again, so help me, you had better pray to whatever it is that you do, because I'll be after you to teach you another lesson. :throws Kaleb to the ground, turns and gets back in the car and drives off:
Once they're on the road Hita breaks the silence
Hita: you okay?
ZANDi: yeah Im fine.
Hita: do you wanna come over my house or do you want me to drop you off?
ZANDi: I suppose ill go to your place…:yawns:
Hita::laughs: a little tired are we?
ZANDi: Mmph… zZzZ…ZzZz…zZzZ
they drive on for a while then they reach Hita's house and she sits up sleepily.
Hita: have a good sleep?
ZANDi: h-huh? Where are we?
Hita: my house…the one you were at last week was just a temporary house, this is where I sleep and things like that.
ZANDi: it's GINORMUS!
Hita::laughs: I wouldn't say that, but its satisfactory.
Hita turned to ZANDi and looked her in the eyes
Hita: ZANDi, I have a proposition.
