Gary hadn’t known Xin for long. In fact, he had only been able to talk to her occasionally. Whenever he did, though, everything always seemed to feel so natural to him. Although his heart was beating at a rapid pace when he would approach her, she had never been afraid even with his awkward actions and stupid face. Despite all his flaws that others had said to him, she had even agreed to go on a date with him.
‘My wonderful future days at Westbridge are over?’
Gary looked down at the keys, and then up at the car again. He repeated this process two more times. The teenager was searching for the right words to say in this situation, but it was as if they had gotten stuck in his throat. He had heard what Kai had said, yet none of it made any sense to him.“Hey, were Kai and Gary always this close?” One of the students asked curiously. Ever since Stacy had stopped coming to school, it had been impossible for Amy to enjoy her school life. To keep her mind occupied, the teenage girl had focused even more on her studies, which was seemingly the only good thing to come out of it.During the lunch break, when Amy was eating her homemade meals, it always hit the hardest. Just a few days ago, she had still blamed Stacy for transferring away, believing that her best friend had done so to avoid her. However, after learning that she had died, the teenage girl couldn’t help but be depressed thatMy Werewolf System Chapter 256: Clack Clack
Without a doubt, Amy could tell that she was being followed.‘If I turn around now, they will know that I know that I'm being followed. … please just let me be overly paranoid, but I need to make sure.’ The high school girl thought to herself.At the moment, she was on a quiet street. A residential area rather than the main street, but she could see t
The meeting time was upon them, and it was finally time for Gary to leave the Wolf’s Pool Club. As he walked up the stairs from the basement wearing his new suit, he started to adjust his cuffs a bit.“So… how do I look?” Gary asked, looking for the opinions of his fellow gang members.Each of them couldn't help but stare at Gary, the suit was almost a perfect fit, as if it had been tailor-made. It was a standard suit, black with a white shirt and a black tie, and they had never seen Gary look more presentable than at this moment.“You look like a damn mob boss!” Innu blurted out excitedly.
‘What the f*ck is that guard doing holding that thing like he’s at a show and tell?!’ Was Gary's first thought, as he saw him hold it in his hand. The teenager could tell by the look of shock on Xin’s and Jayden’s face that they had clearly recognised the item for what it was.“Er….er..” Xin was fuming, unable to find the right words, while Gary had yet to make up his mind on whether he should just snatch it out of the man’s hand or pretend like it wasn’t his.“Hey, calm down, it's not like a condom is going to be used as a weapon.” Jayden said as he walked forward. “Actually, on second thought, you could probably suffocate someone with one of these things.”
Gary had noticed that the mayor had slightly flinched once he had seen him come in. It wasn’t hard to guess what had elicited this type of reaction. Right now, the teenage boy didn’t feel like he had green hair, but a giant glowing beacon growing on the top of his head.‘Should I have tried to just shave it off before coming here, or would it have simply grown back?’Since the first impression was already negative, Gary decided to be on his best behaviour, and so he naturally accepted the handshake. However, for some reason, it felt as if the mayor was trying to crush his hand. The high schooler wasn’t sure if the adult man simply had a strong grip, or if this was supposed to be some sort of test.
Eventually, everyone had finished their meal. Xin’s parents had asked Gary a few more questions in between. Fortunately, it was just normal small talk, about his family and how he was doing in school in general. The teenager was more than happy to tell them about it, especially about being one of the Rugby stars of Westbridge, something which apparently gained him a bit more favour with the mayor.“Speaking of school, the reason I'm here is that I heard that you wanted to transfer Xin somewhere.” Gary began to address the difficult topic. “If you don't mind, Xin, I wanted to ask you if you could tell me the reason, or at least where you'll be going.”“Don’t you think the reason for it is pretty clear?” Xin’
Ben Clove continued speaking about the topic, it seemed like he had switched to his job mode, making Gary realise that arguing with the mayor on a certain topic wasn’t the best idea. This was more a situation for someone like Tom or his sister to deal with.“As bad as gangs might be, at least there is a certain status quo between them which the others respect.” Xin’s father continued. “No matter how noble of an intention a new gang coming in might have, their appearance makes everything worse. The whole balance of power gets shifted. I can guarantee you that soon another gang will come in and try to get a piece of the pie.“But fine, I’ll humour you in that these Howlers actually just want the best fo
