"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!
Author's POV3 months later..."Get out of my sight, Clein! Get out!” Clein has his two arms in front of him and is receiving Andy's fists which are constantly punching."Ouch! Baby! I’ll just stay here, please! I'll just cover my face with a blanket so you can't see!" And Clein quickly ran to their bed and covered himself. Clein felt the surroundings because there was a sudden silence but only for a moment.Clein quickly turned around when he heard Andy's sob in the corner."Baby... hush now. Alright, I’ll go ahead I'll just leave, stay here in the bed," Clein had nothing else to do against his wife who was currently nearing childbirth, so that's why she’s acting like this.Clein ushered Andy toward their bed and laid her down slowly. He kissed Andy's forehead gently."I love you, baby. Goodnight," Clein said before turning around. But he hasn't gone far yet, Andy pulled the hem
ANDY'S POVANOTHER explosion has been heard outside the Battle Underground, "N-no! C-clein!" I run outside, as my pace quickens so does my heartbeat. Clein, I-I hope that you're safe! I realized that my tears were already streaming down my eyes.I went to the jungle part, near here in the Underground Battle."Clein! Where are you?! Answer me!" I keep on shouting, and looked for him in the woods, wishing that nothing bad had happened to him.Until I came across a part where the surrounding trees had fallen and the tall grass seemed to have parted. And also notice the circular burnt-like part in the middle."This is where he put the bomb! Clein, where are you?! Answer me, please? Clein..." I cried in despair because of the possible events that I could think of."Clein, I hope you're okay. I-I can’t continue if I lose you too. I don't know what I'm going to do with my life. I'm going to end the bu—"
ANDY’s POVIT WAS like a bomb has just exploded in my ear that completely deafened me from what I heard.W-who is he?! Besides... W-why does he look like papa?!"W-who are you?!" I couldn't help but tremble because of the way he looked at me. I want to be happy because it seems like my father is just in front of me, but I can't do that because he is different from my dad.His hair was up to his shoulders, he had a scar across his face that is looking devilish to me."Hmm, who am I? Well, I'm the one who should be accustomed to owning the treasures that are already in your name. I'm the one who should have enjoyed the life you've experienced. And most of all, I'm the one who should have been in the position of your Father! " I flinched because of his loud shout. I completely lost my alertness, so I didn't realize that someone was already holding both of my arms."I am the true son of the Diliman, the on
SOMEONE’s POVAND YOU really sided with that Andy, huh? You will regret it now.I smiled as I watched the groups of people enter the Battle Underground. Hah! Fools! And you still plan to kill me? You will all die now! You all will explode together! And the inheritance that should be mine from the start will rightfully go to me!THIRD PERSON'S POVTHE guards are now dragging Sophie who they now know is a traitor."Let me go!" Sophie still struggles with the hold of the guards. But the men tightened their grip on her with both arms."Shut up!" and Sophie burst into tears when she tasted her own blood, because of the strong slap she received.They entered a large room and there was Candice looking badly at her now. Next to it was Clein who has a blank reaction and the person that he could not expect to see here was here..."W-what? Nica?! Why are you here?!" So
CLEIN hugged me when Sophie suddenly appeared. I saw how she hesitated to look at me."Clein! The guards are approaching!" she said. Clein pecks a kiss on my lips first and he hugged me tightly and walked out. I noticed it returned the silly look and looked like nothing good to do.I look at Sophie to thank her, but she can't still look at me.
ANDY’s POVI GROANED because of the pain I’m feeling in my body. I slowly woke up and the first thing that appeared to me was railings. I immediately stood up and I immediately looked at my foot when it suddenly made a noise—caused by the chains attached to it."Where am I?! Get me out off of here! You bastard people!” I just shouted, waiting for someone to come and see me. And after a while, he appeared in front of me."C-clein..." I stopped what I was doing. His forehead furrowed."I'm not Clein. I'm Diego, can shut the f*ck up and stop your shouting there? You're disturbing me!" he shouts at me."C-clein, please... Don't be like that. I-it's me, A-andy! The woman you love!" I don't care if I look like I'm begging now. I saw that he was about to answer but he turned to the right when we heard footsteps."Oh, honey
