Chapter 2: The Pain, Confusion, and Anger.

S A I N T

My senses came back because of the noise of people around me. Yet I decided to keep my eyes closed and just listen to their conversation.

" I'm really sorry but I need to go, our class will start soon. I really wanted to stay and wait for him to wake up to apologize to him but we have an important quiz today. " Said the unfamiliar voice on my right side. Maybe he is the one who knocked me out earlier.

" It's okay, you can go now. " I heard Win said on my left. He's here?

" But don't forget to apologize to him. And if something bad happened to him when he wakes up, you are gonna pay for his hospital bills. " Now, that's Mean's voice. Wait, they're here?

" I will. I promise. " I heard the owner of the unfamiliar voice answered.

Then silence followed. Maybe the other boy left. I slowly opened my eyes but I regret it after. My hands automatically travelled to my head. I groaned because of the pain. Win and Mean who were quite earlier noticed me and immediately called the nurse.

The nurse checked me. She said that there's a big bump on the back of my head which is the cause why my head hurts. It's nothing serious, it's just a bruise and an icepack will help heal it.

" But why did he faint? " Win asked her, his eyes full of worry and concern.

" There's a lot of factors that can make a person faint, but in my own observation maybe it's because of shock. " The nurse answered to Win then faced me again. " Have you ever experienced getting hit on the head? " She asked me.

" I haven't. " I answered while shaking my head sideways slowly.

" Then I'm right, it's because of shock. Your body didn't know how to react with an unfamiliar pain and feeling so your brain just shut down because it didn't have a choice. Don't worry, it's nothing serious actually. You'll feel better after a good sleep. " The nurse stated. She's such a good speaker.

" Thank you. " I told her, she just gave me a smile and suggest to skip the morning class and have a good sleep then she left.

" What were you doing at the field anyways? Why didn't you see the ball? " Win immediately asked me the moment the nurse was out of our sight.

" I was late, so I took a short cut on the way to our classroom. " I said and smiled a little. I really appreciate his concern.

" Why didn't you noticed the ball then? " Mean who was very quiet earlier asked with the same expression that Win has.

" I was panicking, I don't want to be late, so when I was walking across the field, I didn't bother to look around I just wanted to be on time. " I told them. They calm down now.

" Okay, but next time I hope there won't be a next time. Bother to look around, okay? " Win said

" Okay. "

" I guess, we'll be leaving you in here because we still need to attend class and for you to have a proper rest too. "  Mean said.

Win was about to complain but Mean just gave him a glare so he had no choice but to obey. I was left alone in the room with an icepack in my head.

I was never hurt in my entire life, well... Physically like I am right now. I never even experienced a bruise! My parents treated like a treasure maybe because I'm an only child. They spoiled me with their money and love but I never became a spoiled brat. I respected and love them so much, I did all I can to prevent being a pain in the ass to them. That's why it took me 12-13 years to complain about switching school because I don't want to disappoint them. I knew why they picked that school for me, I experienced why, it's really a great school for those who wants to have a bright future and that's what they are aiming. They just want to secure my future and who am I to contradict them, they gave me everything, the least I can do is to be ungrateful. But then, Senior High School came, I know my future is already secured. I have the brain and I am confident with my capabilities. For once, I wanted to be selfish. I wanted to experienced what's it like being a normal teenager. To have fun, have friends, and of course to experience love.
