"Wait, flattered?"Jason shrugged. "Well in the middle of your busy schedule of studying, you can make time for me and this party.""Well, that's..." Actually, what I said in class earlier was just a momentary boast to make what he was trying to do less important than what I was going to do.But, I was the one who proved it wrong, and here I was. Jason didn't seem to care about my continued words (as usual). Instead, he turned and said, "Walk with me," he said, still the same way he had when giving orders. "What do you think?""What about what?""The party. It's certainly no more interesting than your favourite world history, but--""I never said I liked history class," she said suddenly in an angry tone.Jason never liked being interrupted. See, even though he tried to hide it, there was a twitch at the corner of his eye that indicated that he was annoyed with my attitude.However, so be it, because anyway, yes, I didn't like the way he said it as if I found writing far more enjoyab

"Okay, okay. But, this is because of your request, okay? Susan told me that her family's situation is difficult, and her mind is in turmoil, so--""Liar!" snapped Amanda. "You think I'm stupid? I've known her longer than you have, and know more about her than anyone here. I've been his friend since he was a kid! I'm his best friend. His family is fine--"I interrupted her again. "You failed as a friend when you said that!"Amanda gasped repeatedly. Her mouth opened, then her hand closed in a shaking motion. "You... how could you...""Damn sanctimonious man! Why are you being so cruel, anyway?" Kimberly said as she put her arms around Amanda who started crying.I couldn't understand more. "What? Cruel? Me? Isn't that you guys?"And that's when Jason was suddenly in front of them.Like an unlikely hero whose arrival was never anticipated. "Stop it, McKane. Keep your tone down. It's a girl you're dealing with."So what? "Stay out of it!" Ah! Ah... I get it. I get it. So this is all the r

Again my body moved on its own, and this time the cause was anger.I lunged, raising my hand, but it wasn't a slap. I threw a free fist at David's arsehole mouth, which was immediately held back by a more formidable hand."What do you think you're trying to do, hm?" said Jason in a tone that was so jarring.Huh. That's right. Both of them were the same.They called me a hypocritical hero, huh? They call me a loser?Let's prove here, who really is the loser.Believing in my enhanced physical abilities, I confidently tried to break free.I'm trying to break away.I'm trying to break away.Why couldn't I?Jason smirked at my pathetic attempt. "Your cheap tricks won't work on me, just so you know."Really? There was no way he knew!But, even Carl knew. And Elena. And maybe David. Wait, does everyone know already?Was this all just a magic trick that I was caught up in for a moment?Am I just being tricked by a false reality?Jason tugged on my arm and body like an adult tugging on a baby'

She made us look like prey and it was so annoying. However, I'd better keep quiet now. "Another target?" When I asked that, whether it was due to the influence of momentary emotions, my brain went blank and didn't come up with a single name."Well... it's kind of pointless if I show you something if you're going to lie to me again," Eva said sarcastically. She was holding a mobile phone that from its faint cutout displayed a blurred image.Do I have to convince him now?I was actually too lazy to do this, but Eva seemed to really want me to. "I won't lie to you, again.""Really?""Yes.""You promised."I sighed and joined in with my chest. "It's getting late and we don't have much time. If you want me to help, you better give me whatever you can find right now."Eva grinned, chuckled, and flipped the screen. It showed a picture of a middle-aged man I didn't recognise.Wait.He wasn't really unrecognisable.In fact, it was the middle-aged man I knew so well.The man who fills my wildes

No, it's not.The plan I'm referring to is not a massacre. Where I ask Michael to kill everyone as originally thought.Again, I'm not a psychopath who only knows death as a way out. Besides, it's not like Michael is willing to grant it either (it might even go against his beliefs, if he still has any).Jason and the other jerks said that everything I did was to satisfy my ego. To play the hero. I won't shirk or defend myself, even if that's what I need to do now.Maybe some of my intentions are there (some are so small I don't even realise it), but my ultimate goal is to eliminate pollution.People like Jason are toxic waste that can contaminate society. His existence had to be tamed if he didn't want to cause an infectious disease, and I felt that I was doing the right thing.I'm trying to do the right thing, and I'll prove to them that if the title of hero isn't the mark of a big loser.I'll show them what a hero is. "What is it you want to talk about?" Her voice boomed from the o

While riding the public bus home, I took out my mobile phone. Looked up Susan's number, and sent her a message.[Can I call you now? There's an urgent matter to discuss...]I actually didn't expect this to work. After all, our last meeting left a bad impression on both parties.And even Silas himself recognised that Susan was a typical woman who would sell out.So...My phone vibrated. Susan replied![Of course...]As if the universe was really on my side, the bus stopped and my destination had already arrived.I quickly got off with a few other people, quickly headed home, and called Susan.It only took two rings for the call to pick up.Susan didn't make a sound.It seemed like I had to bait her first, just like when I made Michael believe. "I know how to make your dreams come true."*#*When I woke up, I quickly realised that I had made a huge, fatal decision.I mean, what was I really thinking?If I'm not mistaken, my initial plan last night was to push for the murder to take plac

In the end, I couldn't stop the long-winded speech.Why did he have to say it at a time like this?It really put me in a very difficult position.Anyway, I must stop whatever efforts Michael is trying to realise today.I must save Susan!I stumbled towards the classroom. It was lucky that the hallway was still quiet.No! That's not luck!I may have arrived too early, but I wasn't going to school. I was supposed to go to Susan's house, or see Eva, or anyone else who could give me a hand.But, getting caught up in the conversation with Silas left me speechless.Again, without realising it, I proved David and Jason's words to be true.I was just a big loser who was always afraid.What's changed, really?I opened the classroom door, and was greeted by a definite emptiness.No!There was someone there. Even if it was just one. Sitting on the seat next to me. "Richards?"Richards looked up from the biology book he was reading intently. "Ah, McKane? Good morning.""You here yet?" I asked. Wa

If I ever said that having Eva with David was such a bad combination, then I was half wrong, half right.Eva with someone else, anyone else, is the worst combination. She's like a walking plague that will contaminate anyone who associates with her.However, in this case, I think that between Eva and Eva are two factors that affect each other."So... what are you... I've heard the term... ah, an idol?" said Eva.Susan shook her head and answered calmly. "Suicidal, does that mean?""Ah, that's it. Geez, I'm confused, you guys like to use complicated terms for things these days."Susan chuckled. While I was busy looking around. It was a good thing that the place we were travelling in was deserted.After much thought (in fact, I was the only one who really thought), the best solution was to take Susan somewhere far away to avoid collateral damage.And if things had to go the way I'd designed them last night, it wouldn't be so conspicuous.We decided to take Susan to the back of the school
