CHAPTER 2: Vàle Gjoice

Val found his way on our classroom and sat at the desk next to my back since both desk on my sides are taken.

"Okay class, get back to you seats. Let me introduce you our transferees."

The teacher stared at both Val and me and at the guy in the back.

"Please stand and introduce yourselves."

"Hello everyone, I'm Hinari Castell, 17 and I like Martial Arts."

"Pleased to be with you everyone, my name is Valter Krouge, 17, and I like—"

"Vàle Gjoice, 18, none"

He didn't even bothered to greet us. He looks bored. He glared at Val before he covered himself with his hood. I didn't even have a chance to properly look at his face. I just saw how scary his eyes were.

"Val do you know him?"

"No..."

"But I saw him glar—"

"It doesn't matter. It's none of your business."

Val looked scary. He doesn't look like the soft boy that I have always been together with. His reaction affected my thoughts. He's right. It's none of my business. I shouldn't stick my nose into it.

"Well, I guess it really is none of my concern." while giving him a concerned look.

"I'm sorry... By the way let's eat lunch together!"

Here he is, the old Val the one with the most shiniest smile to the point that it even makes me proud whenever anyone confesses on him. I can't explain but I really am concerned everytime someone is confessing on him.

"Hey Val, is something wrong? Looks like you're worried about something."

"Rin, let me walk you home okay?"

"Huh? What are you talking about? Your house is on the other way hahaha"

"But I need to protect you, so just do as I say please? ⊙︿⊙"

" Okay"

----- Class Dismissed ----

The guys at the back didn't listen in the lessons at all! He just slept all day and yawn What a jerk! He doesn't value how free they are to study he just fools around yawning like that.

"Hello! My name is Shisha Pedez, you're Hinari right?"

A girl just sat in front of my desk and act all clingy.

"Yes, so what about it? You one of Valter's ants again? Sorry I can't disclose any information to you!" *sarcastically*

"Hahahahaha lol as if. It's my second year here, still got no friends."

"But you got good social skills, how dare you fool me hah?"

"Hahahaha I just felt confident with you guys here. Maybe because I'm dumb? Having smart friends is pretty handy yah know?"

"Lol you're interesting. Shisha, right? You can call me Rin. I'm a boring person that's why only Val sticks to me. Are you fine with that?"

"Uhm! Me too!"

"What do you mean by 'me too'? "

"Me too, I'm a boring person."

" I just said you were interesting lol, let's go home together?"

" Oh right I saw your address, I guess your hous is just few blocks away from mine."

"Are you a stalker? ಠ_ಠ get away from me"

"Hahahaha I just saw it in your school records at the teachers desk this morning since he called me for some things."

"Okay"

Shisha (POV)

I never thought she was this kind. The first friend I ever had this highschool. Hays, schools sure are interesting huh. I can't let them know that jerk is my brother he just yawned all day! I'm gonna give him a beating later.

"Uhm so Rin, where did you go in Middle School? "

"Me? Uhm let's say I'm like an unleashed tiger for now. I study at home. Tutors just go to our home to teach me. And since I want to experience a normal highschool life like you guys do, I challenged my father to a fight lol."

"What?? Seriously??"

"I'm always involved at endless fightings since I was a kid and just beat everyone up. So my father kept me in the house and never got out again. I challenged him in exchange fof freedom!"

"That's really brave of you."

"You think so?"

"Yeah, I'm just a normal schoolgirl with strict parents and a hella brother. But I understand him though. I know he's not just throwing tantrums. My parents did something really bad and traitorous to him when we were young and he can't move on. Since then he never followed everything my parents say and lead his life. I hope someday I could do that to. I want to lead my life freely to. Right?"

"That's a sad thing. But there's more on bravery not just fighting! Telling your parents what you really feel and admitting that you feel suffocated with them is counted as bravery! So you don't have to worry about that at all!"

"Btway Rin, this is our house. See you tomorrow. Thank you for the walk!"

"Thank you too! My house is just ahead of this street."

"Take care"

"uhm...."

I noticed my brother following us all the way from the campus.

"Get out now, dumb*ss."

"What do you want?"

"I should be the one asking you that! You just keep listening!"

"Hey is my life kinda free story for all that you can freely tell that to everyone?"

"Free story for all? Don't mess with me, brother. I'll uncover the truth "

"And how are you gonna do that? You're the last person who believed in me. And I want you to stay like that."

"What are you so scared for? What are you thinking?"

"Enough, Shisha. I'm tired today. Tell mom I'm going out."

"Where are you going again?"

"It's none of your business."

My brother has been hiding all his pains. If the same thing happened to me, will I have a stronger resolve than him? I also knew that leaving her is his only choice back then...
