"WHAT are you talking about?" the man asked with an irritated tone. I scoffed in my head because of how he’s acting like he doesn’t know what I’m talking about. Okay, pervert, just get ready when no one else could hear what I’m going to say.
"Ah n-nothing, I’m just p-practicing a script, yes right," I said while hand gestures to make it more believing. I even scratched my neck to make it more effective.
He just looked at me seriously and then he suddenly took a step towards me until he’s in front of me. He brought his face close to mine. Then he whispered something.
"Keep it in yourself if you don't want to be killed. And also, nice panty, by the way. I'm hoping to see the Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday too!" it’s a mischievous whisper to me. He smirks at me and walked away while I left gaping because of what he said. That bastard! That’s embarrassing, I can't let him just treat me like that!
"Bye, trashes," Sophie said then turned her back on us. Gradually, those around us left, but I could still hear their whispers, gossiping about what happened.
"Seriously, I thought what she was saying was true!"
"Hello? A poor person like her? That hottie will like her?"
That's all I could hear from one of the groups that passed us by. I turned to Nica who’s as if she hadn't been able to get over what had happened. She stared at me as if I knew something that she should know.
"What was that?" she asked with astonishment in her voice.
"I’ll say it to you later, we still have a class to attend to!" I changed the topic and pulled her to our classroom. Fortunately, we are classmates.
When we arrived, our teacher just came in, so we quickly followed her inside. But when I went inside, my eyes immediately landed on a person... WHAT THE HECK?! That man is my classmate?!
"Hey, Andy! Why are you just standing there? The mannequin challenge is over, hey!" Nica whispered to me. I looked at that man first before making my way inside and go to my seat. I saw him looking at me too. Then all of a sudden he smirked at me which annoyed me.
"So today, we have four transferees from the U.S, and one of them is the son of Mr. Lee. If you don't mind, gentlemen, please introduce yourselves," our female teacher announced.
The four arrogant men immediately went to the front and smiled sweetly that made my female classmates almost dripped their saliva, well not me.
"Hello, everyone! I'm Zach Bunglar, 18! It's so nice meeting you all," the latter introduced himself. This one is obviously a womanizer, well there's no denying that he's handsome. But that man is more handsome... oh never mind.
Next, the cat-eyed man with a very innocent face introduced himself, "Hello, classmates! I'm Khalil Calicto, 17! I hope that you all will be my friends!" Oh, a cheerful one.
And next is just like a happy-go-lucky guy, "Goodmorning, classmates! I am Caleb Rivera, 19!"
And the next one is... he looks like a pervert man, steals panty, and did I already said a pervert one?
"Ah He—" the pervert didn't even finish the greeting because of his fans club outside our classroom that didn't even flinch to our teacher's killer eyes that were supposed to make them shut up.
"Ah, Clein!"
"Clein Lee, we love you!"
"Welcome here to the Academy!"
We, who were inside the classroom was stunned when suddenly, the students from the other section who were quietly watching at first to the introduction of the four, suddenly started shouting.
"Go back to your classrooms!" our teacher approached the students from the other sections that made them step back. Our teacher closed the door so that no one could peek and disturbed us anymore.
"Ahm, do I still need to introduce myself?" the pervert man with its arrogant question. I scoffed on my seat! Just because there are dumb girls admiring him! I looked away from him because I was so annoyed.
"SERIOUSLY?! Clein did that?" Nica ask me incredulously after I told her about what happened about the ‘stealing of panty’.
"Sssh, Nica, lower your voice! And yes, that's true! But don't tell anyone! It's embarrassing!" I said with a low tone. We are currently in the cafeteria now and I bet that my face now is blushing.
"Awful... I can't believe Clein can do that!" Nica couldn’t believe it.
"Why are acting like that? You know him?" I asked her with a frown. Don’t tell me that she’s one of that pervert’s fans?! I will really kill her!
"Duh, of course! He’s my cousin! He’s the one whom I told you before! Isn't he handsome? Also… those boys with him are also handsome aah!" then she just looks like she’s being possessed on her seat. I just mentally rolled my eyes.
"Aha! I have a good idea," she said out of the blue. But her smirk is not telling me that it is a good idea.
I watch her picked up her phone and called someone, "Hello, Clein! Just come here to the cafeteria to eat with me! It's just the two of us. Ah... All right! Byeee!" my eyes widened as I looked at Nica. I knew it! Her idea is not good to what she just claimed!
I immediately glared at her. "What the! Nica!" I complained.
"It’s too late to complain, he’s already behind you.” I sat up straight because of what she said. And at that moment, someone was already sitting on the vacant seats beside me. Then the other two seated with Nica. And to make it worst, WHY DID HE SIT BESIDE ME?!
"Hello to you! I'm Nica, Clein's cousin! And that girl right there is Andy, she’s single! I’m also single!" Nica introduced us as she’s smiling so widely. While I’m about to burst on my seat out of embarrassment.
"NICA!" I called her out with gritted teeth. The hell, I am ashamed of what she just added to her ‘introduction’.
"Oh, Panty Girl! I'm Zach!" I just raised an eyebrow at him. But I was taken a back to what he just called me.
"I'm Caleb. Nice to meet you!"
"Hello! I’m Khalil! I hope to be your friend!" And the rest of that pervert’s friends introduced themselves. And now, it’s his turn.
"Clein," he just simply said. I don’t care less.
"I don't care," I muttered in my seat. He immediately glared at me and simply whispered to my side.
"Remember what I said earlier, panty girl," my blood is really boiling because of this bastard! Damn him!
"I HAVE A NAME! SO, STOP CALLING ME, PANTY GIRL!" and again, I just blurted out something without even thinking! So nice, Andy. What a start of school! All I want is to melt right now! Oh god! Help meeee!
I STARED at Nica who still couldn't stop laughing."Nica! Why did you even let him come, earlier?!" I complained. We are now in the waiting shed, waiting for Nica’s driver to pick us up, and I'm being asked to go home with her again."I'm sorry, Andy. You two are really match-made in heaven! I will really you two’s cupid!" she was still teasing me."No thanks, if it’s him! I don't want a pervert like him!" I said while my forehead is frowning."Who's this pervert?" Nica and I looked at each other when someone suddenly answered from our back. We turned around to see who is it, and I almost fainted again when I saw the person who caused nothing but trouble for me today."You! Can you stop interacting with me?! Shoo, get out of my sight!" I turned him away, but he and his friends just laughed at me."Nica!" I complained to Nica with my arms crossed."Clein, don't tease her too much, she might kick you.
I BID goodbye to Mom when I heard the horn of a car outside our house. I went out immediately afterward. Nica's car window was down as she peeked at me, "Come on in, Andy," Nica said to me so I turned to the other side to get on.But my smile immediately faded when I saw who was with Nica in the back. But I just ignored him and had no choice but to take a seat beside him."Wait! It’s too crowded here in the back! I'll just sit there next to you," Nica suddenly said to their driver. I immediately frowned at what I heard."Nica!" I said with my eyes glaring at her, I was the only one who overreacted, and Clein on the other hand has his face with no expression."Oh, she's being defensive!" Nica said, teasing me. And I couldn’t stop her from getting out of the car to move to the front."Let's go, Felipe," Nica innocently said to their driver as if she didn't do anything to annoy me. And as the car started moving, Nica was j
"ARE you okay?" I slipped from leaning against the tree when someone suddenly spoke next to me."What are you doing here?!" I ask with a hint of irritation on my voice, and yeah, it's Clein."Just asking!" he looks like he’s bored. But I don’t care, if it weren't for him, it wouldn't have happened to me!"Alright, but could you please not stick close to me?! Someone might see us and your fans club will hit me up again!" I said while glaring at him. But instead of leaving, he approached me and touched my arm, where Sophie's nail mark is visibly seen."F*ck! I knew it, you're not okay!" I looked at him, frowning. Cause it was as if he was annoyed with himself. What kind of drama is with this man?"Then what about it?" I hissed. What is his problem? We are not close for him, to interfere."Just shut up, okay?! Stay still, I have a band-aid here," and I watch him taking something out of his pocket. Band-aid?B
CLEIN'S POV“WHAT?! You’re kidding, right ?!" I stood up violently when I heard what Zach said from the other line."We were about to leave when suddenly a car pulled up and pulled Andy over!" F*ck, f*ck! This is what I'm saying! Why did I even do that?!Flashback"I will be signing off as the master of the most powerful of all Gangster Clans. And this means that I will be searching for one brave and mighty one who will take my place."We are now in the Battle Underground, a private underground place where various Gangster Clans fight against each other. And now, the master of the Shizuki Clan is about to step down. And that means that a lot of gangsters will do everything to have that position."Place for place and life for life. In one Clan, there will be a QUEEN that you must protec
CLEIN’s POVI LOOKED at Zach and the others, and like me, their eyes are full of questions and I knew that we had the same thing going on in our minds right now. 'SHOULD WE TELL HER?'I, can't either know what to do. She’s special to us. Ever since that event happened, everything turned upside down. We went back to our senses when we heard as if someone had fallen."Andy!" the four of us shouted. I was the first to approach her, so I immediately picked her up in my arms."You three, take care of that bastard there. You'd better kill him!" I gave orders to them and I immediately got out of the headquarters.And as I walked away, all I heard was X's agonizing shout from the hideout. That serves him right. I immediately got in my car and drove to the hospital nearby, owned by my Mother. As I drive, I couldn’t help but look at Andy’s face. She i
CLEIN’s POV"WHAT are you going to do now, Clein?" Caleb asked me, worried. He knows my situation — I mean, we do."I'll take care of it. Just don't tell her that we're one of the people she hates. I don't want to lose her again," I told them."It's been seven years. We still had fun then, with her. But just because of what happened, she was traumatized and lost herself including her memory," said Khalil."I hope she still remembers us deep within her," Zach said."But when she finds out that we're a gangster. I don't know what to do." I hope she doesn't get to the point where she hates me for all her life.I took my phone when it suddenly vibrated. I immediately got excited when I saw who was calling me."Ahm, Andy?" I refrain my voice to sound cheerful.'H-hello, Clein, sorry to disturb you. I just wanted to thank you; I know you paid our hospital bills. And as a thank yo
ANDY’s POV "AHH, I miss you, Andy! I'm really sorry, I suddenly disappeared and here I found out that you had an accident! Clein would really be dead meat to me for not watching over you!" Nica just came home from Paris. And here we are now, in front of the school and as we are about to enter, I saw Clein’s group who’s as if they are looking for someone. I suddenly became nervous. He must not see me! I still remember my embarrassment yesterday. Damn this mouth with no red traffic light! I quickly pulled Nica to the side where we go along with many students who were coming in so that he couldn’t see me. Nica was surprised at what I was doing but was not curious enough to ask me. I heaved a sigh of relief when I thought we were far away from them when I suddenly felt someone holding my shoulder from behind. "And where do you think you're going?" he asked me with a serious tone. And I don’t have to look back to know who he is, because I already k
ANDY’s POV I WOKE up feeling something caressing my face. I opened my eyes and saw Clein's worried face looking at me, so I woke up immediately. "What happened? Are you in pain?" Clein asked immediately, worried. Zach and Nica also approached me. "Earlier, my head suddenly hurt, then I saw images flashing on my brain. Four boys, people with different weapons, blood flowing... Then I... I'm the one to blame... I,” I couldn't help but cry as the images finally shone on me and I remembered that it was as if a water had submerged due to the rain and its stopping at the same time as the sunrise which illuminated the water again through its rays. "Do you remember... Do you remember us, Ady?" Ady... The four men... Don’t tell me... "Zacky, Lebby, Khally, and Mr. Clein?!" Instead of being happy because I already remember them, their faces frowned because of what I called them. "Okay, we're happy that you remember us as your childhood friends.
