Chapter Twenty-one
Louis’Point of View
“What are we going to do? What Giles and I did didn’t work.” Sid said while playing a mobile game with Byron.
Here we are now in our hideout inside the school. Hideout that only us know. Actually, we have a class today but because ‘we study hard’we didn’t go to class.
“Yeah. I thought Yanny would fold right away,” He scratched his head with frustration, “I wasn’t informed that she was as hard as a rock!”
“Maybe it’s because your acting is ugly?” Byron asked while his gaze was still on his phone.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Because of what he said, Giles immediately turned to him, “Then you try it! Let’s see if her heart will soften.”
“Tsk. Tsk. Tsk…” Byron shook his head, “Doubtless, I’ll just smile at her and she will suddenly soften.”
“You wish!” Giles reacted quickly.
Byron just laughed at Giles’reaction. While Sid is just focusing on what he was playing and me? I’m just looking at them. As for Alyn… there’s the darkness of his aura again probably because Giles and Sid didn’t soften Wendy’s mood. He also got angry at me when he used me first to approach Wendy.
Well, our plan is to act like we were worried for Wendy. Then when she bites our bait, we’ll repay her for what she did: cutting my clothes, piercing Sid’s ball, breaking Giles ‘earphones, she put a fake cockroach on Byron’s bed and doodling on a picture of Elaine. If she thought we had forgotten that, well, she was mistaken.
Hmm… I can’t say I’m really mad at Wendy either. I just want to play along with my cousins, because she’s cute when she’s mad. Because her face always turns red whenever she gets annoyed and for me, she looks cute there.
“Do you really want revenge or not?” Ops! The king has already spoken.
“Of course! Who doesn’t? I also have a lot of earphones that she broke.” Giles answered immediately.
“Because of her, Pure died so I won’t allow myself not to get revenge!” Sid’s statement. Pure is his most beloved ball; it even has a signature from his idol player.
“Right!” Byron agreed, “She even put fake cockroaches on my bed!”
I shrugged, “Well, it’s a pity he cut my clothes. That’s too much if you count.” I said.
“If you want to, why don’t you do your part well?!” Alyn’s voice echoed throughout the room. It was obviously furious because of how he looked at Sid and Giles.
“Fuck, men. Don’t shout!” Sid shouted back at Alyn. “Damn, I died….” Sid said almost in a whisper.
Alyn’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Sid, “What did you say?”
Sid turned to Alyn for a moment and immediately looked back at what he was playing, ” Nothing. I said I’ll try to pursue her again. Okay? So, just chill. There are a lot more days. ”
” Yep, there are many more days, Alyn.” Giles agreed with what Sid said while nodding.
” Shut up! “Alyn shouted at Giles who even jumped suddenly in surprise.
I just followed Alyn with my gaze while he’s coming out of our hideout. His head is hot again just because Giles and Sid didn’t tame Wendy. He was also angry with me yesterday because I was the one who he assigned first for the task but I failed. Because Alyn thought Wendy would soften right away if it was me to talk to her. But that’s not what happened, it’s almost like she got even angrier.
This Alyn, he doesn’t really ignore things like this. When you do something bad to him, he won’t definitely back out and he will certainly take his revenge. He’s that kind of person. And he also can’t accept being treated like trash or whatever. That’s why he’s so mad at Wendy even though she’s a woman.
I can only say one thing, Wendy got the wrong man.
“Tsk!”Sid clicked his tongue, ” You should have softened Wendy, Louis. So that man did not get angry with us. You are aware that he’s like a dragon when he gets mad.” Sid growled.
“Like I give a fuck, bro. That’s what you get for always playing. The next to act is Byron for sure.” I replied.
Byron put down his phone and looked at me, “How many bets can I make on that if I softened Tardy’s heart? Oh, how much?” he said arrogantly.
I just shook my head and didn’t answer. While Sid smacked Byron’s head, “You arrogant human! If she is still hard as rock after you approach her, you’ll give me your car.” Sid makes a deal.
“You can even have all of my women,” Byron replied arrogantly.
“You will really cry when you lose the deal.” Sid smirked.
“Stop it. Alyn will just knock you down,” Giles interrupted and he stood up, “I’m going back to class. What about you, guys? Are you guys just going to stay here?”
Sid and Byron nodded at the same time. While I stood up and approached Giles, “Let’s go together.”
“I hope your character dies in what you are playing,” Giles whispered but enough for the two to hear without stopping playing on their phones.
We were about to walk out the door when I heard something thrown so I looked inside again.
“What the fuck, bro?!” Sid exclaimed, “Did you just put a curse on me?!”
“Just admit it, you’re just a noob.” Byron laughed at him, which made Sid more annoyed.
Meanwhile, Giles did not respond to Sid’s statement and he just laughed. When Byron and Sid started trash talking each other, Giles and I left and went back to our class.

Maxine’s Point of View
I finished my whole class all day when I wasn’t okay. Because my annoyance with Giles and Sid could not be erased from my mind. Well, I just stood for a straight 1 hour in the corridor because I was late for class. And who is at fault? Those two great monkeys! I want my life to be peaceful but they are bothering me again. Oh my gosh!
It makes me dizzy because of the stress on them. But it’s good that Ferries isn’t showing herself. Well, she should be! If she showed herself to me today, her face might have been crushed.
“Tardy!”
Oh, come on! Another monkey again!? Can’t they just leave me alone? I already know who is the owner of that voice. What else when he called me ‘Tardy’?
I just ignored him. I didn’t look back and just continued walking out of the gate as if I hadn’t heard anything.
“Hey, Tardy! Wait up!” The monkey shouted again.
But because I was human, I ignored him. I kept walking until I was stopped when the monkey caught up with me. He just stopped in front of me! I tried to avoid him but every time I turned right or left; he would block me again.
“What the hell do you want from me?” I asked as I tried to calm myself.
“Let’s go home together,” he replied with a smile.
“Oh…” I smiled back but a fake one, ” What did you say? Sorry, huh? But I don’t understand the words of monkeys. Why don’t you try to talk to your fellow monkey?” Byron looked shocked, and there’s even gaping at his mouth, “Well, then. Good bye.” I said and left him there.
I looked at him to see if he was going to follow me. But I also breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that he looked like a statue standing alone there.
Hmp! Don’t ever dare to come near me. I might be a monkey too; it will be hard. I’m too gorgeous. It will be a pity when that happens.
