《Conquer Everything》Chapter 13

Damn... I can't forget those words. Is she serious about it? we only just met and you suddenly said that without hesitation?
Thanks to her, my heart was beating hard, even for now. Who wouldn't..? a virgin like myself have never held a long conversation with a girl... so... being confessed is out of the question.
I lay down on my bed and stare at the ceiling with a mixing feeling
What should I do? accept it? or turn it down? I don't know what is the right decision to make. If I recall, sure... I save her from being forced to 'play' with that boxing guy, and I expect for a scene like this will be triggered... but never expected that I can't manage myself like this.
hmm... I feel some small vibrate on my left side. Is it a notification for a new episode of the anime that I bookmarked? if so, then you come at the right time! I feel like to distract myself from this uneasy feeling
I grab my phone and unlock the pin... a message icon?
"Aiza, sorry for disturbing you at this night. How was your classroom? have you made any friends yet?"
Somehow those words like a dagger with a sudden throw, piercing through my chest with full of strength... really critical hit. But if I rewind back... I do talk to Vid and with a long conversation too, although almost Vid is the most do the talking, even I was not sure if this expectation of mine turns to be one-sided, whether she already becomes my friend or not
"Well, I do but only one, and that's my neighbour near my seat"
"Hmm... let me guess. Its a girl, am I right?"
Wha...!? how did she know? is she stalking me? wait... she did say guess. Let's not jump to a conclusion here
"How did you know?"
.............................
Well, that takes a while for her to reply.
As I rolling on my bed, I hear a footstep from the stairs. Looks like it headed toward this room
"Big bro, are you sleeping?" Noa said while knocking the door

"No, what's up?"
"Mom's telling you to come down for dinner"
"Tell her I'll be right there in minutes"
"You better hurry, because you should know better, that when she snapped, nothing can stop her" her voice sounds less heard when she went downstairs, but I catch it perfectly
Those words enough send me a chill...
What she said is true. I wouldn't want to deal with her when she in her berserk mode, especially when a ladle in her hand, only god know how terror that is. Even that was too much for a delinquent like Farlan to handle it.
I do remember, that day, Farlan was beaten up by mom when she heard that he commit another crime in school and that is fighting. I also heard from dad, mom once a delinquent leader in her school, so for a strength like that being display in front of him was nothing new
Ops, enough for that... I better hurry before my name will be registered in the list of a punching bag. I'll reply her message after I done eating.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks for that confession, I can't sleep at all. And Eva is not replying my message since after I finish my dinner. Urghh, my eyelid is so heavy for me to open it
This is bad, I can't tell where I going as I'm not inside the school yet. I'm just let my legs decide for the journey. If I bump into someone, that would be a trouble... come on... open it dammit!
Bump!
My shoulder being engages with some people and is kinda hard too as I feel this guy shoulder was quite sturdy. As I sit on the ground, finally my eyelid can open it curtain and as the shine was strong, I unable to see it clearly
"Watch where you going, first-year!" that guy yell at me
I brush my eyes and stared at him. He was the second year. He's as tall as I am and has a blue-black hair.
"I'm sorry, senpai. My head was feeling dizzy so I cant walk normally" I rise from sitting
"I don't care! the serious problem is this! how you'll deal with this!" he shows his uniform jacket, being spilt with his strawberry juice

Damn, I screwed
"Well, how?!"
"Err, I'm sor-"
"Your sorry don't solve this matter" suddenly we began to attract some other student who walking nearby, and seems like they only watch from a side road rather than helping me
And before I know it, there are five other students who stand behind him, two of them are the female
Suddenly, one of the girls whispering at him with some nasty eyes. Its remind me of those days when those eyes show something bad will happen to me next.
"Okay... since you're still a freshman, I'll give you another chance... and that is... pay me"
"40,000!" that girl suddenly speak and laughed hard
"40,000!? I don't have such amount in my wallet"
"Sure you do. After all, this is a prestige school with full of rich and talented kid. I too a rich kid but, since I forgot to bring my wallet today, so you'll do"
This leech! how come this guy can enter this school? have they never been caught red-handed?? think Aiza... think! how you will escape from this thugs.
Ah... thanks for that bumping with him, my mind was been refreshed back and all the sleepy that hanging around my eyelid has disappeared. And I feel like my adrenaline has ready to enter the 'mode'. I put my weight and strength on my left leg, ready to unleash the explosion anytime when the right time calls.
I've no choice. This is my second day and I don't want to ruin my reputation as a wimpy kid or starting the fame as the delinquent.
"Well? why you keeping your mouth shut huh?! she ask for a 40,000, so bring it out"
Seem like they do not aware my intention as I move my left leg to the front, a bit wider than before. And there's a gap between those guys standing, let's make use this body to the extreme with aiming there. If I run to the side, their hand most likely will be able to grab me with an instant.
Judging our gap from a standing point, I can make them stunned for a second!
"Hey, did you not hear-"
"Sorry, senpai"
I pump my left leg onto the ground as a spring, then release the strength as I dash between them. I able to catch their expression which is shocked and stunned. As soon as I passed them, I running without turn my face to them
But I do glare a bit to check on them, and as expected, they tried to catch me up... but how should I say... it's like a marathon when you already in lead despite the gun has not released the shot to start the game, and it's acceptable for the judge and the world... for now
After I enter the school, I still running which makes me feel like being watched by the students. It so embarrassed but I need to ignore this feeling and try to overrun them. Then, I make a detour and blindly enter the unfamiliar building which I never been in.
Huff...huff...haa... this feels kinda tired than my usual training. I come to understand now that running with feared was much more exhaust than a normal running. My skin has detected some cooling breeze...ah, this building has an air conditioner, no wonder. Let's rest here, I bet they're not thinking of searching me in here since this is an office building. I can see the teachers walking with their document on their hands.
Thanks to this building, my thirst has been erased by this refreshing and chilling air. But my leg and hand can't stop trembling, I guess I'm too scared to fight since I have no experience in fighting at all. I stooping as I gaze the floor with my sweat dropping to the ground.
"H-hey, are you okay?" hmm, I heard a girl voice greeting me
"Y-yeah, somehow" I lift my head to watch this person
C-crap...
This girl is...
"I'm Lysa, from the student council. May I help you?"
