Carl and Tim fearfully looked at Justin and Zack. They paled under their gazes.
"I'm so sorry, we didn't mean to criticize you...please forgive us...sorry...we are so sorry" Carl and Tim abruptly stand up to apologize, bowing fervently.With what Carl and Tim did, everyone's attention turned to their table which made Justin and Zack felt so awkward."Hey what are you doing?" Zack forcibly pulled the two boys to sit down on their seats as not to attract more attention."I'm so sorry if we have said something awful, we don't know. Please don't punish us" Tim fearfully begged while his head is still bowed."Yes we are so sorry, we acted unfairly and recklessly. Please don't punish us" Carl added with his head bowed lowly."Stop it, you two. What are you talking about? Why would we punish you? You did nothing wrong to us" Justin was exasperated."We said a lot of things about you and some are awful" Carl mumbled softly.Zack and Justin heavFreshmen Initiation Rights has started and all freshmen were gathered in the field together with all the hazers."Everyone you have your signature book and as what has been discussed earlier, you must have 1000 signatures from your seniors at the end of this week. Punishments await for those who could not comply" the head hazer announced. Zack looked at the stage where the head hazer is standing together with the other hazers. Later did he found the one he saw intently staring at them after leaving the cafeteria on their first day was in fact the head hazer. They were dismissed to gather signatures for two hours so Zack and Justin looked around the whole place where they can see a lot of seniors hanging around. "We will go together, don't just get their signatures, talk to them and try to know them" Zack spoke to Justin together with Carl and Tim but other freshmen who are near them were also listening. "Justin" someone from the crowd called and he insta
The freshmen's routine continued every day and they are on the way to completing the one thousand signatures at the end of the week. Zack and Justin without so much choice, lead all the freshmen since they seemed to wait for the two brothers' lead every time they have tasks to do. On the fourth day of their Freshmen Initiation Rights, Zack and Justin were called to talk to the head hazer. "Mr. and Miss KD competition will be starting to rehearse this afternoon and we have to send our contestants. We already have a female representative, I want you to decide among the two of you who will represent our faculty " the head hazer talked to them with his casual yet commanding tone. Zack and Justin look at each other before turning to their head hazer. "I will represent the faculty" Justin volunteered with a timid smile. "Okay then, you will be pulled out from the activity at four this afternoon. You can now go back" the head hazer nodded before he dismi
It's the last day of their one thousand signature task and they are all in double time. Zack is busy checking with his group's signature book while others are doing tasks given by the seniors before they could have their signatures. "Good day, I'm Zack Thaddeus Dalton, a freshman from electrical" Zack approached the senior to ask for his signature after his group finished and transferred to another group of seniors. The senior and his group just kept on staring at Zack without saying anything. "Can I have your name and major?" Zack politely asked. "What sports do you play?" the senior asked instead. "I play football and I was a player in high school" Zack replied politely. "All ten of us will give you our signatures if you will join the football team of engineering" the senior spoke with a serious look. Zack looked at all of them, weighing."Yes, I will be honored to play for my faculty" Zack responded with a reserved smile.
"Wolves have been asleep for a long time... it's about time to wake them up as the fearless pack leader has returned" Zack was stunned the instant he read his signature book where the head hazer wrote his message on the last page. He didn't understand what the message meant. He become more perplexed when he asked him and he just smiled mysteriously. "It's been written in your blood, you cannot deny it for too long, Zack" the head hazer just briefly responded, making him more confused.Justin even teased him he was the pack leader and the freshmen are the wolves but Zack just laughed at his absurd ideas. Shrugging off whatever the head hazer meant, he assumed what was written was just a quote he was fond of. Setting aside his thoughts about the message, though curious, he focused his attention on a lot of things he needs to fulfill in the coming days. After the one thousand signature task and the drama with it, everything has fallen into its r
Justin is returning from his practice with Love when he saw a group of girls surrounding a table in the study area. "Zack, please can we have your number""Zack we have brought you some snacks""Zack this is my number, you can message me if you need something, I can help you with your academics, I'm in electrical too""Zack we can hang out on the weekend if you are interested, you have our numbers, just message us" He didn't mind the group and just smiled amusedly at the fangirling of their seniors but he abruptly paused when he heard the name of the person they were talking to. Justin slowly approached the group and saw his brother's awkward face while talking to some of their seniors. Zack also has a lot of papers in his hand not to mention the gifts placed on the table. "Ahm...thank you, I will try" Zack just replied casually and nodded to all of them. "Thanks, Zack, we hope we could hang out together" "See you around Zack"
Zack has been staring at Justin since morning noticing his happy disposition while having their breakfast. Even when he entered the car.After their argument, last night, Justin's mood improved tremendously and until this morning he looked elated."You seemed so happy Justin" Zack stated when he entered the car."I'm always happy, Zack" he replied with his sweet naughty smile."You are happy because...because you will see Love in a while?" Zack tried to tease but sounded awkward. Justin turned to Zack, gauging the other boy with his intent gaze."I'm always happy Zack, even before Love" Justin spoke after the long silence. "You become happier when you are with her especially lately that you have become closer" Zack whispered. His smile was quite lopsided. "You think so?" Justin mumbled. Zack nodded and bitterly smile without looking at Justin. Indeed Justin is happy whenever Love was their topic. "Are you...are you two...togethe
Zack brought his brother to the shade and checked his hurt stomach while one of the medics followed. "Justin, where does it hurt?" Zack gently asked. "This is nothing Zack, after this cold compress, I won't be feeling anything. His kick is not that strong. Papa's kick is a hundred times stronger" Justin proudly responded to his worried brother. Zack just scoffed at his conceitedness but he still checked the area where the kicked had landed and it has indeed no injury. Just a slight redness on the area. He has mentally noted to give Justin a pain reliever and an anti-inflammatory pill before sleeping tonight. "You just charge without caution, I've been telling you to be careful and be keen" he scolded Justin who instantly pouted from his stern tone. "Sorry, I was just worried for the team captain, I forgot caution" Justin mumbled while touching Zack's arm, trying to calm him down. Zack looked ready to kill earlier and he could see how he suppress h
Zack immediately took his shower the moment they arrived in their apartment. Not wanting Justin to notice his awkward predicament. He was so quiet in the car on the way to their apartment and he was so relieved Justin slept during the whole ride. Zack only went out of the bathroom when he made sure he looked fine and no longer felt awkward. He thought he was already used to Justin's antics. But he was caught off guard earlier. Justin is such a tease. The next morning after the fight against the economics gang, Zack and Justin went to the university, expecting they will be summoned for the investigation. But it was already midday and still haven't heard about it.They could feel an eerie feeling they are being watched."Can you feel it?" Justin asked in a hushed voice."Yes," Zack replied casually. They are walking towards the cafeteria to have their lunch. Even inside the cafeteria, they noticed the stolen glances of the students around. After
