It is nearly snowing outside on a school day.

However the little baseball team still needs to practice until the spring time, which is far away on April.

The coach is basically a lazy yeti,  which the boys nicknamed her as.

Or shall they say the "Karen Yeti."

She'll make them practice more until the spring games.

It was under 30 degrees and she's making these boys suffer, means they'll catch a cold and miss a few days in school, the district is very strict about sick days. They'll suspend a student for having not 3 but 2 sick days.

Well that's what just happened to them, especially our boy Jonathan, the next day after practicing in the snow, he ended up with a bad cold.

When he woke up, he felt so icky in his nose and throat.

This is not good.

Jonathan's POV

I get a really bad cold around the winder time.

Our coach wouldn't even let us wear coats while practicing. I end up having frost bites...

Ah...

..ahh...

ACHEWW!!

I need to tell mamá about this...

So I grabbed my cozy Attack on Titan blanket, which was a gift from Sherbert.

Yeah...I like me some anime.

Then I put on my slippers, heading downstairs to see my mamá is up like usual making breakfast.

End of POV

"Aww morning mijo" Selene said, she looked over at her son and noticed already.

"Ai...Ill call the school, you go lay down on the couch and watch cartoons, Ilk bring breakfast over to you." She pats his shoulders and he went over to the living room, then laid down.

Jonathan looks up at the tv, looks like his siblings were watching Dora.

//Is it me or is Dora blind?
I believe her and Diego are both blind lol\\

To Jonathan's honesty, he'd yell at Dora to turn around.

Which will always make the two youngsters laugh.

"Oh dios mio date la vuelta, mocoso ciego !!"

English: Oh my god turn around you blind brat!!

Jonathan shouted but end up coughing, turns out he can't talk, because he'll end up coughing.

"Okay okay Mr. Sickie, calm your throat down, I made you soup." Selene handed her son a bowl of hot soup and a spoon.

"Careful, iz hot."

Jonathan's POV

I should send my bun bun a message.

After my early breakfast, I went up to my bedroom and grabbed my phone.

Jonathan: Hey Sherbert, sorry I can't come to school. Im sick 😷

💕Sherbert💕: oh no!! 😭😭

He'll be okay, but still...why must we practice in the cold?...

It's snowing pretty bad out there...

End of POV

--Going to Sherwin, a few hours later--

Class is almost over for Sherwin, lucky for him, he'll get to play with Arwen.

As soon the bell rang, he walked out of class and went to his locker to pick up his jacket.

Until he got his jacket, he heard footsteps coming from behind.

He turned his head and sees Darren and Vinny looking pissed off.

"O-oh..h-hey guys, you look nice..." Sherwin said shyly, feeling scared.

Darren pinned him to the wall and looked down at him.

"Hey weasel...wheres your boyfriend at?.." he said as a threat.

Sherwin gulped and looked down.

"Hey!! He's speaking to you fag!" Vinny gripped his chin, forcing him to look up at Darren,

"H-he's sick.." Sherwin stuttered.

"He's what?! Sorry!!! I can't hear you!!"

Vinny slapped the poor gingers face.

"HES SICK!!" Sherwin shouted at them.

Darren growls and grips Sherwin harshly on his shoulders.

"Let's throw you in the trash...where you belong..."

The two boys picked up Sherwin and head outside to the back of the school, throwing him in the garbage can.

"Enjoy being crushed you d*ke!!"

Vinny yelled out and laughed his ass off.

Darren on the other hand, felt completely horrible about this...but he wouldn't show it.

What would his sweet girlfriend think of this?

"Come on Darren, let's go tell Sunny about this!" Vinny ran back inside to find Sunny.

Darren sighs "y-yeah..Ill see you there..."

Darren's POV

This feels wrong...I feel like Im being controlled by Sunny's nonsense...

If Luci found out that Im bullying someone, she'll dump me...

Sherwin is a nice person...

I don't understand why we should suspend someone for being themselves...?

End of POV

Darren went back inside while Sherwin slowly pulled up the garbage lid, panting from the horrible smell.

He felt like crying that this is happening all over again...

"I need to tell the principal...I hope she's still in her office..."
