As Varsch sat in his seat on Monday morning, it took all the strength in his body to keep a straight face. He was bursting with excitement at the thought of the little surprise he'd set up for Yuya. For as soon as he'd gotten home on Saturday morning, he'd called the rest of his new group over to plan a little "treat" for Yuya using the stuff he'd collected at his house. He had to bite down his laughter every time he thought of it.
"Morning," Zuzu greeted as she took her seat beside him, Yuya took his seat by the window and smiled at them both. Varsch smiled back, growing more and more excited. Yuya opened his mouth to say something but he was cut off by the school bell.
"Okay everyone, if you could turn your attention to the board." The teacher said, switching on his laptop. As soon as he did so, a video popped up on the screen. "What the?!" The teacher cried. Everyone looked really confused as the image of a large stage had taken over the screen. All except Yuya, who'd turned very pale.
No… He thought. It can't be…
Unfortunately, it was, as proved by the younger looking Yuya who walked onto the stage. Everyone in the room immediately recognised the little tomato headed child with golden googles. They all began to wonder if this meant Yuya was behind this or if someone was playing a joke on him. They decided it was probably the latter. They continued to watch as the Yuya on screen started looking really nervous, almost like he was going to throw up. It was at this point that Zuzu realised what was going on, this was the story Yuya had told her and Varsch. But how? Who could have done this? Only she, Yuya and Varsch knew. But when she looked at Varsch he looked just as concerned as her, and Yuya looked like he was going to have a meltdown. He'd pulled his goggles onto his eyes and was visibly shaking. He couldn't help it; he knew what was coming next.
No. He thought. Not this, anything but this.
And just as Yuya had said, the Yuya on screen threw up and then slipped and fell over. The entire class couldn't help but burst out laughing, he looked so ridiculous covered in sick. The only people not laughing were Varsch, Zuzu and Yuya. Varsch wanted to laugh more than anything but he managed to keep up his act of concern so as not to look suspicious. Zuzu was wondering how everyone could laugh when Yuya was clearly upset. The Yuya in the video looked insanely embarrassed. And when she looked over to where the present Yuya was, he wasn't there! At first she was confused before she caught sight of him cowering under his desk, too ashamed to come out. Zuzu moved to comfort him, since he was clearly distressed, but he got up and bolted towards the door before she got the chance. And as luck would have it, Yuya tripped over a desk on his mad dash to get away and went sprawling on the floor. The laughter in the room increased as Yuya hurriedly scrambled to the door and rushed out of the room. Zuzu watched him leave feeling a mix of pity and anger. She was sorry Yuya had been embarrassed like that, and angry at whoever had done this, as well as the rest of the class for laughing at her friend's expense. Meanwhile, Varsch watched Yuya leave with an almost invisible smirk on his face.
You think this is bad? He thought. Just wait Yuya. I haven't even begun to make you suffer yet…
