During recess...
Asher and Freddie happened to pass by and saw the two. " They look cute together, don't you think?" Freddie asked. " Hold your breath" Asher walked towards Charlie and grabbed him. " Where are you taking me?", Charlie asked. " Let's sit over there". Asher took his lunch box as they sat on a chair very far away from Chloe.
" Big brother Asher... I was chatting happily with my new friend", Charlie frowned. " You could chat with me", Asher ate his food ignoring Charlie. Charlie was staring at Asher. " What's wrong?" Asher asked. " Nothing it's just that... Big brother Asher looks cute when eating" Charlie smiled.
" Cough... Cough" Asher almost choked, " Are you okay?" Charlie brought him water. " I am fine, don't ever say I look cute". Asher warned. " Why? it's the truth". Charlie said. " You know what say anything you want ". Asher mumbled.
.......
After recess, The students all went to their various classes. Freddie caught up with Asher, " Hey! You left me for that pretty boy, it's not fair". Freddie crossed his arms. " I thought you would join us and didn't bother" Asher said as a matter of fact.
" You two do look happy together, why don't you introduce me to him?" Freddie suggested. " Maybe later", Asher said. " You know... everyone has been talking of you all day". Freddie whispered to Asher. " Who?" Asher asked. " Our classmates especially the females, They all say you carry a cold and interesting aura especially that one ". Freddie pointed at a girl about Asher's age.
Her name is Lily, She has long brown hair and emerald eyes reading. While the other girls were busy chatting She was the only one reading, " Not interested" Asher said coldly. " Don't you need more friends?", Freddie asked. " I need friends not burdens. They all seem like burdens", Asher said as He walked to his seat.
" Am I a burden?" Freddie asked. " No, So don't act like one ". Asher said. Lily glanced at Asher but quickly look away, " Typical". Asher just said. " She just stared at you ", Freddie said. Asher ignored him throughout the day.
Until It was closing, A bunch of girls cornered Lily. " Who do you think you are?". One of the girls, Jina asked. " Please don't hurt me... I didn't do anything", Lily begged. " Didn't do anything... I asked you to do the assignment yesterday but you said you didn't have time", Jina scoffed.
" You think you can pretend to be smart by reading in front of the new boy?". Jina asked. Charlie and Chloe happened to eavesdrop. " Should we help her?", Charlie asked. " No... Let her be, She can't even protect herself in the fourth grade, How will she protect herself in the future, That's Elementary school. How will She face Middle School or High School?". Chloe asked.
" She might be beaten", Charlie said. " How are you sure we won't also get beaten?". Chloe turned away, Charlie ran towards Lily. " Hey!, stay away from her", Charlie yelled. " Aww~ an accomplice you will share half the sorrow". " If you touch me and my Big Brother finds out, He will not forgive you ". Charlie warned. " That idiot will get beaten, I need to warn his brother ", Chloe ran to Asher.
" Senior... Your classmate is in trouble", Chloe said. " Let's see if he cares about his classmates". Chloe thought, " How should I care?", Asher asked. " Which of them?", Freddie asked. " A girl with long brown hair". Chloe said. " Let's go... That's Lily". Freddie said. " How is it my business?". Asher asked.
" Charlie is also there", Chloe said. " Charlie". Asher ran out of the classroom. He saw Charlie on the ground crying. " Charlie, Charlie are you alright?". Asher ran up to Charlie. " They hurt you", Asher turned to the girls. " You hurt my brother and my classmate, Before I count up to three and you're still here. You are dead meat". Asher said as the girl ran.
" Thank you ", Lily said. " No need to thank me, thank him if it wasn't for him i wouldn't have come ". Asher said coldly. " Charlie can you stand up?". Asher asked. " Yes... I can manage " , Charlie replied. They left.
" How close are they that he even didn't notice me". Lily said through gritted teeth. " They are just brothers boys can't be together". Lily said as she left.
