"Hi, Honey!" shout of who as I walk. I looked at him as he got closer to my side.
"Stop me, I am not in a mood right now." I then said to hurry up and walk, not because I was avoiding him but because I was going to miss school.
"Why you get angry, so sudden?" He asked with a smile.
I glared at him. "Aren't you afraid to be late?" I asked, because he looks so happy while walking, this guy just doesn't seem to care if he's going to be late
"I'm not going in." He said.
He is well-groomed and in uniform, then he won't come in?! That's why this man seems to be walking on the moon.
I frowned at him. "And what is the reason?"
"My troops and I have a bet." He replied.
What else can you bet on that. Maybe it's like last week, when he lost in a basketball game he pays a money to the other team.
"You're not coming in but you even bothered to wear a uniform, if you're not crazy too?"
"Of course for somehow Mommy knew I went to school." He said proudly.
I really want to punch him on his face.
"Do you think that what you're doing can't get to your Mom?" I said as I continued walking, I thought he wouldn't come in but he was also going to school.
"Honey, there's nothing like that." He pleased
“Are you sure you’re not really going in?”
I have to let him in, it's a pity because he's dressed and he's already carrying a bag.
"I don't want to, unless you force me."
Force? Should I force him. I looked at him with a sergeant and this kid looked at me too.
"Marco Dixon Haven I am forcing you to go to school." I promised, then changed my aura.
"Wow! Is that how you insist? Isn't there anything please?" He said sarcastically.
"I don't know about you, if you really don't want to come in. Then don't!" I shouted, and walk fast at the same time because I could see that the school gate was closing.
Once it is closed, you are automatically late and will not be admitted to the first subject and you will be hung in the covered court for an hour.
And I don't want to, so I didn't walk fast but run.
I gasped as I was grabbed at the school gate and the female guard approached me in surprise.
"Oh! Good thing you still made it." She said.
I smiled at her telling that I am happy I made it. Then, I immediately felt the presence of the man next to me. Marco, he just smiled at me as I gasped as I stared at him.
With his limbs so long, he didn't have to run.
"Why are we just standing here?" He asked me.
I shook my head and started walking towards the building where our room was.
"Hey! Stupid don't we have a bet?" Shout by his fellow troops who are also our classmates.
It looks like there is no teacher today because they still have the courage to swear.
I immediately approached them and one by one I hit them using my book on their head.
"Let Marco do everything as long as it doesn't ruin his studies." I order them.
They nodded while scratching their heads. I glanced again at Marco who was now behind me. He put his arm around me as I entered the room. I'm used to him hugging me, so I just let him go.
"Hey, he's concerned about my studies." He teased as we walked to our seats.
"Really! I don't want to see your Dad breaking the pots in your yard because of your low grades."
As far as I know, his Dad has high expectations of him. So he gets angry when he sees Marco's grade low.
"Hmm ... How many pots does he ruin every time he takes a card?" He asked while still holding her chin.
I removed his arm from my shoulder. "It's crazy! You have to work hard, especially in the next school year. We're in Grade 10, this is your last chance to decide." I said then sit down.
He turned his back on me.
"Yes, I'll make sure." I just nodded at him and then looked at his troops entering the room.
"Hey! Ms. Terror is already there!" One of them shouted.
Our classmates laughed because of what he said.
"Hey Enzo! Your mouth!" Tessa, our class president, shouted.
"Why? What do you want?" Enzo asked.
Enzo just smiled and sat down, Ms. Araneta entered just in time.
"Is there a problem here?" She asked.
"None, Ma'am." Tessa said, at the same time he gave Enzo a mad face.
"Honey? Didn't you notice Enzo?" Marco whispered to me.
"I do and he is an attention seeker." I answered.
"Yes, exactly. He is an attention seeker but only to Tessa."
"Tessa will really notice him because of his naughtiness."
"No, there's a purposes why is he like that. Maybe he likes Tessa."
Where on the continent of their house did he get that.
I frowned at him. "Impossible, you'll pay attention to me but you don't like me."
He just smiled at what I said. And I averted my eyes from him when our teacher spoke.
"Class, listen!" She shouted as she tapped her ballpen on the table.
She stopped it when she got our attention. "Class, since we're done watching all the chapters of Noli Me Tangere. I'll just ask you to do something on your project and you will pass it before the final exam."
"Ma'am, how's your roleplay with Noli? Is it still going on?" Tessa asked.
"It's really bad that there's already roleplay, and there's still a project."
"How are we going to have time to review fo the finals, if they dump us."
My classmates whispered and started a commotion.
"Calm down! The role-play won't continue. Sections 1 and 2 will take care of that ... but you can help them make props or be extras."
"I'll give plus points for who will help." Ma'am added.
