The next day when we entered the school building, we saw a lot of hustle and bustle near the school's notice board.

"What's that? Notice of some celebrity coming to visit us and giving us autographs?" I asked, confused.

"Well, seems like it is about the sports tournament. I heard a guy screaming and shouting that we might lose this time. Let's see what it is.." Josh replied.

We pushed some students and got pushed by some students and finally, reached the notice board.

It said that there is a Basketball Tournament, tomorrow. Our school is the one organising it. All the students need to be there before 9 A.M as the game will start at 9:30 A.M.

And guess what, I don't even know a word about Basketball.

We all went to our respective classes. Josh, I and Catherine went to our Physics class which Chris went to his Sociology class.

The Physics teacher was going to start with Electrostatics.

That Ron was constantly staring at me all the time. It felt so embarrassing and humiliating. All I wanted to do was to go to him and tell him to look away, because I didn't like it.

When the class got over, we all got out of the classroom.

Josh was walking ahead of me. I was walking at a slower pace, while Catherine was still inside the class, packing her stuff.

That's when someone patted on my shoulder. I turned around to see who it was.

Ron!

"You?" I asked. Terror was flowing past my 12 year old, baby face.

"Yeah. Why? Can't it be me?" Ron asked, raising his eyebrows and smirking.

"I— Umm... N— nothing.." I didn't know what to say.

"So kiddo, seems like you lost a Burrito, yesterday. Huh?" Ron said.

I went all blank. My face turned pale and my hands went white and they froze. A shiver went down my spine. My eyes were burning hot. My forehead was on the verge of sweating.

"Uh— H— how do y— you know?" I was badly stammering.

But he didn't reply. Instead, be just winked at me and gave me a weird smirk and walked away.

He was just so mysterious!

Josh was standing at a distance, listening to the conversation. He came up to me and said, "You okay?"

I nodded in a yes.

"Chillax. He won't tell Mr. Jordan. He himself is the person behind millions and billions of wrong things." Josh said.

That's when Catherine came out of the classroom.

"What happened, peeps?" Catherine asked. "Why is the environment so heated up?"

"Global Ronning, you know!" Josh replied.

"Ronning? It is Warming!" I said confidently.

"Well for us, it's Ronning when referred to Ron. He does the exact same shit as Global Warming!" Catherine replied.

Catherine's POV:

I was tensed all throughout the classes, just that I didn't show it on my face. Why? Because then May, Josh and Chris would have bombarded me with millions and billions of questions.
