chapter 4

ZOE POV

It's noon and we're still in the room. Waiting for Dylan and the result of the Quiz Bee.

"There's Dylan!" One of my classmates shouted. He wasn't wrong because Dylan was already there.

She was in front of the door with her bag and her aura was sad.

"O-that's okay ... there's more to come" Kiara said with a sad look on her face.

"Yes!"

"Atleast you're fine!"

"T-right!"

My classmates agreed with what Kiara said. She slowly entered and went to the front. Dy slowly opened her bag and her lips gradually curved.

"Say it!" Ivan shouted and ran towards Dylan who was now holding the .... trophy!

"Congrats!" At the same time we congratulated him. He was the only one who won but we feel that our whole section won the Quiz Bee.

"I told you! You're smart so you won!" I'm proud of you for just smiling at me.

"This trophy ... is for you, for us ..." He said and happily placed the trophy in a cabinet.

In a clean cabinet.

"Tomorrow I'll bring food ... ahm --- tomorrow at noon" Dy said again causing my classmates to shout.

Kiara and I woke up early so we decided to just eat in the cafeteria.

"The room is really here at JSA (Jade Ston Academy) no?" Kiara commented as she looked up at the towering buildings and trees.

"Yeah ... but do you know. During the time I studied here at the Academy ... only in our section did I make a lot of friends --- but you're still my best friend!" I told him that he was happy with me.

"Oi Kiara!" Someone called, we thought it was just Rina.

"Goodmorning!" We greeted each other so we laughed.

(Shallow happiness do we bat)

"Where are you going?" It asks us.

"It's just there in the Cafeteria" we replied. It also came because he said he didn't eat enough in their house.

Going run is just a little student jaya we ordered immediately.

We were in the middle of eating when we heard flies --- this chismosa was whispering (Whispering was heard)

"Didn't Dylan in the last section win?" ... chismosa 1.

"Oo nga e ... sayang hindi papa lexus" .... chismosa 2.

"Sure I cheated on that Dylan" .... chismosa 3.

My ears tingled at the last I heard. I banged the table loudly so everyone's attention went to me even the seller in the cafeteria looked at me. Of course I didn't give up I also looked at myself --- char I looked at the flies of bad and I immediately approached it.

ZOE POV

Immediately three women stood up whispering and fighting with my sharp eyes.

"Excuse me for what you said?" Stop the annoyance I said here and go to their table ...

"That Dylan cheated?" Chismosa answered 3 so he slapped me hard.

He immediately touched her face and started to cry. His two companions supported him.

"Don't ever say Dylan cheated ... your intelligence is less than half his intelligence!" Annoyed, I said this while my hand was still pointing at him ...

"Tana na Zoe" Kiara begged me. I tried to calm myself down and was about to leave when Chismosa 1 suddenly spoke.

"What right do you have to slap a higher Section than you?" Annoyed, he said, I just scratched my head and faced it.

"That's it ... you're in the high section but your brain is in your feet!" I was annoyed to shout here so we got the attention of EVERYONE in the cafeteria.

They are already round, the number of people there is also gradually increasing.

"How dare you talk to me like that! ..." Chismosa 1 shouted angrily again

"... If I know you're the reason Stella's daddy died!" He added and the three of them laughed. The rumors started.

"You say the wrong word dear" Kiara said worriedly, Rina was forcing me to stop ... I didn't speak, I didn't move ... I just couldn't breathe ... just one word .. you will get a strong slap from me.

"Oh what? You can't speak?" Chismosa 1 asked teasingly, I looked at him from head to toe ... one more word.

"Because it's true" he said again and the man in the cafeteria was immediately stunned, Rina was a little surprised even the two with chismosa 1. Chismosa 1's face was almost swollen from the slap he received from me.

"Never ... you have no right to tell me that I was the reason why my dad died!" I shouted and made sure it could be heard inside the cafeteria.

“I AM NOT THE REASON WHY BAT SHE DIED!

JUST ONE WRONG WORD I WILL DO EVEN WORSE TO YOU !! "I shouted angrily that silenced them all.

"Zoe that's right" Kiara begged me. I immediately walked away. I went straight to the room and sat on the bench there.

Rina and Kiara chased after me.

"Are you okay?" Kiara asked worriedly, traces of concern on their faces.

"I'll make sure I fight everyone who touches papa's name ... don't let them try me" I said loudly and the anger could be seen in the tone of my speech.

KIARA POV

I'm scared. I'm scared that the Zoe in front of me now might go back to the old Zoe.

The Zoe who is all colliding, the Zoe who has nothing to fear ... the Zoe who does not listen to my advice.

I don't like him like that, yes he hurts but I don't want his pain to get worse ... I don't want him to fight again and he will almost kill his opponent.

I slowly approached him. I looked him in the eye ... The first thing I saw was anger. I was angry because he didn't want to talk about his dad anymore. But behind the anger in his eyes, you can also see the mixture of sadness. and fear.

Sad because until now he still can't forget that his dad is gone ... and scared because he also doesn't want to repeat what happened to his enemy.

So he holds back as much as possible ... but how can he hold back when those around him fill him.

Mentally, I didn't realize that the class was over. My mind was floating all day, all day I was thinking about the scene this morning in the cafeteria.

I saw AGAIN how angry Zoe was ... but the worst part --- that's not really her most.

I got to know Zoe as a happy and kind person. As time goes on, I get to know her better.

He likes to fight.

Fight somewhere, because that's why I liked him even more as my friend. I learned a lot because of him.

I learned how to defend myself.

I learned to be happy with what I have. At first ... my parents didn't like Zoe because she was a bad influence ... but as time went on, they saw Zoe side with me every time I fought.

Zoe ... she's not just my friend, sister and family.

So now I'm scared, I'm scared she'll do what she did before to her enemy. I'm scared Zoe will come back greedy for trouble.

I'm afraid Zoe known as a demon will come back if she fights ... I'm scared.

"Hey are you okay?" I went back to trance when Zoe suddenly spoke ... or that's all I heard because of deep thought.

I just nodded and smiled ... I didn't even notice that we were here in the parking lot.

I looked at Zoe. I hope ... when the day comes that you go back to the past ... I'm ready ... or I'll be ready.

ZOE POV

Yesterday I noticed that Kiara wasn't thinking deeply, and even if she said ... I know what that is. She's afraid to see me get worse again. Even I, I don't like that ... I don't like that myself.

DYLAN POV

"Brother please take all that to section 11" I said smiling to our butler and sent the food box for our section.

I didn't bring it yesterday because we heard that Zoe got into a fight because of me ...

"What do you think you're doing?" Kuya asked me annoyed when I met him with Dyn and the rest of their troops.

"Giving food to my classmate maybe?" I have a philosophical answer to this. We haven't gotten along before. I hate all of them ... even my brother who disappeared 11 years ago.

"What did they do to you? Ask for food?" He asked again. I was just thrown into the air. Here we are again ... fighting again.

"What's your problem? Its my promise to them ... one more, I think you don't care right?" I asked an irritating question here, he was just interfering with everyone.

"Don't answer me like that! I'm still your oldest brother!"

I just looked at him without reaction. I want to tell him that he is not my older brother, he is the one I will always follow.

"Dylan!" I looked in one direction. I saw Zoe, Kiara and Sabrina approaching me. I looked at Stella who looked bad again --- but Kuya looked worse at me.

"A-what's going on?" Zoe's innocent question.

"Nothing" I said enthusiastically and smiled. I looked at Kuya who still looked at us badly.

"Maybe you're the one who ordered Daniel's brother to bring food no!"

I returned the sharp stare to Lexus. He was the one I fought against in the Quiz Bee section.

"Shut your stupid mouth!" I shout at this reason for other people to look at us.

"Hey! Watch your word!" Kuya sat down with me. I turned my evil gaze to him.

"T-that's right" Zoe whispered to me.

"You know Kuya ... this conversation of ours is full of nonsence thing ... we have to go" I said and pulled my hand --- whose hand am I holding?

I looked at the hand and slowly looked at the face of its owner ..... Sabrina ?!

ZOE POV

"LET'S EAT!!!" Simultaneously shout inside the room.

There were only 15 of us students in section 11 but Dy brought a lot. of course it's just us all.

"Thanks Dylan for the food!" One of my classmates shouted.

"I just kept my promise" Dylan said smiling.

He took their place after getting food.

There was also no teacher because they were meetings. I approached Dylan and sat down.

"Your older brother isn't happy when you bring food" I said with a bow. From what we saw earlier ... there seems to be a problem.

"She can't do anything ..." Dylan replied smiling at me.

I saw Ivan and Ethan scrambling for food. Jayden was quietly eating on the side and Chase as usual ate a lollipop.

"Zoe, come with me to the cr" Kiara whispered to me. She doesn't look like hm-hm-hm but she also doesn't look like she's peeing.

We didn't take Rina with us because she was busy talking to our classmates.

"The fun in our section isn't it?" Kiara suddenly said that we were far away from the room. "It's really good that we went there" he added with a smile so I reciprocated with a smile.

I was shocked when four men blocked our way. Two of them held me with their other hands, including Kiara.

"Don't shout or you will die." It threatened so we couldn't stop shouting --- they were holding knives.

I've seen them before ... I just can't remember where.

Suddenly they took us to the rooftop where not too many students were coming.

"What's your problem !?" Kiara asked angrily but it received a blow to the stomach. I immediately stood up and punched the punch to her but I was not able to punch yet when someone punched me and stabbed me with a knife.

One of them confronted me and threatened me. He leaned me against the wall while still not letting go of my anger ..

"Who are you?" Stop my annoyed question here. I watched Kiara start to cry.

He was still sitting while holding the tyan.

"After what you did to Amanda and Chelly you thought the fight was over !?" This question annoyed me. I averted my eyes because his face was so close to mine and ... and ... I STILL OVERCOME WHAT WAS INSIDE THE IMBORNAL STINK !!!

"Who's that?" I ask here.

I spoke eye-to-eye with him.

"The one you slapped in the cafeteria!" It shouted at me so I looked away again ---- help !!!

I got a strong slap from here ... myygoooshhhh my pretty face huhuhu.

"No one can hurt my girlfriend !!" He shouted again and I confronted him with a slap.

I looked at Kiara who was already crying. I don't want ... I don't want to physically hit the one in front of me now ... I won't do what I did before in front of Kiara.

I accepted his slaps. I accepted the hurtful words coming out of his stinky mouth.

"Gay just slapping pre" I said seriously. I received another slap. I spit my bloody saliva.

"Let it go ... maybe it'll be fine!" He shouted at his companions and they left. Kiara approached me and touched my face.

"I'm fine ... it's just a slap" I said to her. She hugged me crying. I would feel more pain if this happened to Kiara.

I promise you will be on the list I will collide with soon. Get ready ... you are already on the list.
