Patrice’s P.O.V. -“Maybe your friends Andrew and Alex are curious about me.” Isabelle said laughing.We looked at Isabelle after she said that. Even though the atmosphere was awkward after she said that, I’m thankful because she said that and Johnny’s attention went to her.“I was just joking. Don’t be serious, guys.” Isabelle said laughing.But Johnny suddenly laughed as if she heard a funny joke.Suddenly Johnny stood up and then gave me his fries which made us all stop.“I noticed that you want fries. Don’t worry there is no discount yet. Bye, I’ll go first. I just told our teacher that I’m going to take a shower.”When Johnny left I was about to eat the fries he gave me but Shin suddenly took them.“What the?” I said annoyed.This Shin just did not eat the fries if he didn’t swallow them and only ate them in three bites.While Shin was chewing fries, he was looking at me with raised eyebrows.“Shin!” I shouted at him.“Why?!” he also shouted and because his mouth was full
Patrice’s P.O.V.-“Library?” I asked Shin when the two of us entered the library.There is no one here besides the Librarian. It is still class hour, so no one is here in the library and another thing is, people here in the library are there every week before the exam, so I’m sure that next week there will be many people.As we entered the library, we went to the librarian first and asked us what we would do here. But I noticed the lowering she had in Shin’s hand.I followed what the librarian was looking at and here I noticed that we were still holding Shin’s hand, so I immediately removed it.Shin even looked at me sharply after I remove his grip from my hand and I looked at him to, what look? “Ehem ...”Before Shin and I fought the librarian fake cough so our attention came to him.“So, what are you going to do here at this time?” The librarian ask us again.“We need a book here.” Shin replied.“All right, just hurry up. Don’t sleep here in the library at this time.”“We underst
Patrice’s P.O.V.-In the time that I have been studying all my life, it is only now that I am excited to go to school. I want to go to school and then the whole class is over so that I can be with Andrew again in the library.Andrew and I cleaned up well yesterday. We had time to talk about other things. I thought the entire cleaning would be quiet between the two of us, but I was wrong.Yesterday it was Andrew who initiated the two of us to talk. He was the first to open the topic so we could talk.I sighed after fixing or messing up my face. I’m ready to go to school now. Ready more than ready.But… My smile disappeared from my lips when I thought of Shin. I ignored him all day yesterday because I was annoyed with him at some how I feel guilty for avoiding him.I know the feeling of having a problem that you can’t tell other people even though you know you can trust that person. You, just don’t want to not tell the problem to someone else or you prefer not to tell other people the
Patrice’s P.O.V.-“Stop!” I said quickly after I saw that we were almost at the main gate of HIS.I can also see other schoolmates, especially my classmates who are walking towards the gate of HIS and others are just hanging out at the main gate of HIS.I don’t want them to see me with Darryl, because maybe with just one small mistake my plan might be ruined.“I was surprised by your shout.” Darryl said to me. “I was also surprised, he-he-he.” I said to him aso. In this situation, I don’t know how many more times I will lie. My heart beats faster than every time I see Shin—I mean Andrew.I was too nervous for myself about what might happen if Darryl found out what I was doing, if he would find out what exactly my reason for transferring here. “And another thing is that it looks like the main gate of your school is still there, why are you making me stop here?”I looked at Darryl. When was the last time I talked to Darryl and why is he talking so much now? Well. Darryl is always ta
Patrice’s P.O.V.-“What’s wrong with you? Why are your cheeks red and why do you look being stupid? Do you have bad feelings like you have a fever? Do I need to take you to the clinic or, better yet, to the hospital?”After I asked Shin many and many questions, he did not even answer a single one.Well, how can he speak or not? How can he answer my questions to him if he is just, dumbfounded as if he is still deep in thought, other than that he is still holding his heart?“Shin?” I called him, but he was still stunned.I raised one eyebrow because I couldn’t think of anything else that made him act like this. His thoughts seem to be deep in the sea at this time.Aish. We still had a lot to talk about and then he was dumbfounded. The school bell would ring in a few moments.“Shin.” I called again.I still shook him and he still looked the same and acted bitterly.“If you don’t want to leave there, fine.” I said.I decided to eat my breakfast instead of waiting for him to wake up on h
Patrice’s P.O.V.-I did not do anything but follow what Brena and Isabelle wanted after they singled me out, including Andrew.Brena wasn’t kidding when she said that she would tell the rest of our classmates just so I could follow Shin.Brena told everyone that Shin and I haven’t gotten along and that if I don’t explain to Shin what I did, they will report me to our teacher that I did something stupid.I shouldn’t shock to them all. I know that even if my classmates are like that, they will not harm me or even one of us. That’s why I love that classroom. I love my classmates. They are all very different from my classmates from the previous school I attended.But, after each of them, including Andrew, suggested that they could invent a story to report to the teacher, I was scared.Apart from the fact that I have to catch up on grades until the last periodical this school year, I thought that this would be a good chance for me to talk to Shin in depth about what the two of us are goin
Patrice’s P.O.V.-I raised an eyebrow after Shin suddenly moved to the other table with the book he was reading about—I don’t know. It’s just a book without a picture.My gosh, doesn’t his head hurt after reading a book like that?Well, that should not be my focus. What I should focus on is how Shin and I can get out of here.This is the building where other students don’t go and we are still on the third floor.We can’t pass through the four windows because there are iron barriers that I think only I can fit, but on the other side of the window, I will go straight to the ground floor where when I go down it’s either I’m lame it’s really just a drop or lameness. That’s why Shin and I can’t go through anything but the door at this time.I tried several times to open the door, and I also screamed for help from outside, but no one heard us. Another thing is that maybe the class is starting now, so maybe this detention room has been closed, so if anyone plans to sleep here, they won’t b
Patrice’s POV-“Let’s change the topic.” My suggestion, “The two of us have a lot to talk about.” I added.“Just like?”I looked around. Maybe someone else will hear what I have to say to him.“What are you looking around for?” he asks. “I just want to make sure there’s no one else here but the two of us.”“We’re locked here so no one else can enter here.”I opened my mouth and then looked at Shin. “You’re right. I did not immediately think of that.”“When did you think?”“Excuse me? What are you implying when you say that I am stupid?”“I didn’t say that. You said that.”I rolled my eyeballs after Shin said that.What is Shin’s problem? The way he changed his moods, he surpassed a woman’s mood. Earlier he was just angry, but now he seems to want to flirt. But, at least he’s in a better mood than before, one question, one answer and one move to the other table.“Okay.” I said first. “Let’s talk about the real agenda between the two of us. I mean, the two of us should be talking now
