XIX: Say It Out Loud
"How how have things been in school? You've finished your group report by now, I assume." Hyun-Ki inquired with a sip from his champagne flute.
"We have," I gave a soft smile as the man in front of me looked with expectation. I turned away, noticing the look upon my brother's face. I snapped back to Hyun-Ki and spoke lowly, "We got a B-."
Hyun-Ki raised his eyes and lowered his glass, "A B minus?" He chuckled in disbelief, "You're teacher must be insane. You three broke your back over that report."
I gave him a small chuckle and nodded, "No. Andy and I burnt midnight oil, but Dae-Hyun... he was who-"
"Speaking of Dae-Hyun, how is it that you, his older brother, are friends with Lilac?"
Hyun-Ki shifted to face my brother and slightly and knit his brows, "Lilac did a project with him at our house."

As fuzzy and as dampened I felt, as much unsettled my heart was and as crazy as it sounds, the drive felt like a quick fix; it was exhilarating. I could only feel the wind against my face and it was as if it was wiping my tears away. I wrapped my arms around Kai's torso, as if I let go, I would lose my tomorrow. He pushed on, as if running away from my problems, and raced up down the empty road in the quiet neighborhood leaving everything behind. It wasn't long til the vast ranges of fields passed by and we made our way near the other side of town. "Put your hands up!" Kai shouted. "What?!" "It's safe I promise." "You must be crazy!" He laughed loudly, "You're crazy for not trying!" Ah... that made absolute no sense. The wind was breaking against the helmet around me. My arms around Kai felt cold against the strong wind. Kai urged me again and again, "put your hands up! I promise it'll be alright.

"I heard Lilac's going to our match."Tommy didn't reply and pulled his socks up, once he was satisfied, he gave him a look and turned away without a word.Javier snickered at his reaction while Dae-Hyun raised a brow."Can you believe that loser?" Marcus chuckled."That loser's the captain of the team. If I were you, I wouldn't push it while you're on the field." Mishka mumbled as he fixed the

Marcus opened his the front door of his car for me and I gladly entered with a soft smile. I put my seatbelt on as he climbed into the driver's seat."Are you hungry? Do you want to eat out first?" Marcus asked before starting the car.I nodded, "I'm good; Ialsohave a curfew."Once the car started, he laughed and drove forward, "Lilac Dahlberg has a curfew. Why am I not surprised?"***"COME ON,CADELA!* VAMOS DANÇAR!^"Javier shouted though his head rang and then spat out saliva glazed with blood.(In Portuguese via google translate: *bitch ^let's dance)Dae-Hyun's cheek bone was throbbing, but his fists where still itching for contact.They were being pushed away, far away from each other by their team mates but Javier's hot head and hotter words were pushing Dae-Hyun's temper."WHAT,LITTLE BOY?YOUR ZOMBIES WON'T DO YOUR DIRTY WORK FOR YOU!"

I made my way downstairs; it was 6am probably and I needed a glass of water. I waqs almost by the kitchen, but I froze in my spot after hearing the voices scream from the kitchen."What do mean you're on it?" my mother spoke, exasperated. "You've been telling me the same bullshit for months now!"There was a crashing sound that made me wake fully when I heard it. It sounded like a pot."I am working on it as hard as I can, woman! It's easier said than done!"I heard my mother huff, jaggedly, "It better get easier, or else, Ifuckingswear Alexander.""You fucking swear what, Bethany?!YOU'LLLEAVEME?!GO AHEAD I'M SO TIRED OF HEARING YOU SPIT OUT SHIT WHEN I'M ALREADYFUCKINGWALKING ON A KNIFE!"I shuddered at their voices that continued to blare on and felt tears start to well in my eyes.My dad kept barking on up until there was a lou
The Three Kings Of Langley Academy XXIV: Defensive Offenses
After my run, I slipped backed into my bedroom without being noticed at all thankfully. I tired to go to sleep again, but then I would think about everything that was happening and felt like crying. In other words... I did not get to sleep a wink, not in anyway that mattered. By the time it was approriate to wake up, I got dressed and ready for school. When I came across my mirror though, I looked like a train wreck. My eyes were puffy to a point where no makeup could really save it. I'll just pretend that I wanted to wear shades today. I'll put a hat on for extra effect. The next thing I knew, I was being called for breakfast. This was not part of the plan. I frantically bombarded the twins with texts. This was the favor I asked for earlier today. I refused to go down until I got a reply. Finally, just as my mom shouted for me in the tell-tale manner of anger, I recieved a text. I immediately head

Dae-Hyun forcefully dragged me by my wrist and lead me off to the lockers. Once we got in front of mine, I wrangled out of his grip with a wince, "You do know you could just ask me to go somewhere, right?" He looked at me expressionless, "And would you have followed?" I scoffed, "Well, now you'll never know,will you?" For a moment, we looked at each other until he got impatient and motioned to my locker, "Open it." I pulled my head back, "And why do you want me to do that?" He turned away from me and muttered something under his breath,"Ya,don't you usually do this thing anyway? I'd like for this to get over with, okay?" I scoffed yet again,"Why do you want me to do that?!" Dae-Hyun glared with a clenched jaw as he walked forward, "Because Iwantyou to." I huffed and crossed my arms, unable to stare him down out of the sheer idiocy he

Dae-Hyun didn't move which annoyed me, so I grabbed his shoes, placed them on floor and wiped off as much as I could. "YA!"Dae-Hyun bursted out,"neo mwohago issni?"*he continued with a softer voice. After looking at him for a moment, he took his shoes and put them back on though it still had syrup on it. He grabbed my hand and stood me up,"Meomchwo."^ Suddenly, he was dragging me away and I was confused as I was reluctant. pulled my hand away, "What are you doing?

I walked into my first class, slumping down next to Kai who knit his brows at the sight of me."You a'right?"I huffed and gave him a look, "Do I look alright?"Kai made an uncomfortable face, "Is it...y'know... ...or the kings again?"I harshly bite my lower lip and blink rapidly. I scoff, "Clearly there's nothing else ill in my life, right? The world's sun is them."Kai knits his brows, taken aback. He offers a look and places a careful hand on my shoulder, "Hey... what's going on? Did they do something to you?"They're messing with my head. They're messing with my family. They're messing with my life.My silence makes Kai ever more warry. He pulls his hand back but leans in, softly asking, "do you want to talk about it?""Not really."
