I just want to be a normal student! ⚔️

Chapter 19 - The hands that would be (really) joining together (6) ⚔️

Huff Huff

"It hasn't been long.. right..?" breathlessly mumbling, Fredo was running toward the school gymnasium that was several steps away from his current spot.

The WS basement was quite farther away, thus, he was having a hard time rushing here under the boiling sun.

Sweats were falling drop by drop on the back underneath his long light-grey hair.

Should he have listened to his little brother and tie it up in a ponytail style?

Well, Cale said this would look bett—

'What a fool.'

What kind of a brainless fool that would still think of that ungrateful assh*le?

What did he ever do?

What did Fredo even do to them?

Why the hell are those assh*les planning such a thing behind his back?

As if doing that was not enough..!

They even wanted to silent that little innocent kid!?

For now...

For now, Fredo had to suppress his anger and get the kid away from them first.

Come and think of it, the kid was in somewhat hurry while trying to warn him about the WS...

'Let's hurry..'

Fredo suddenly had a bad feeling that the kid might get targeted even before he came forewarning him.

He then decided to quickly enter the gymnasium when..

...when he heard a loud BANG.

***

BANG

Ugh—

After a powerful blow of an as-hard-as-rock basketball, a very dark blue bruise was once again appeared on the little boy's body which was followed by a painful groan.

No matter how long he was apologizing or begging them to let him go, they still showed no sign of doing so.

Maes.. his mind was clouded. He couldn't think straight of what he should do right now.

One bruise after another..

Even if it was just a basketball, it was still being thrown by those big muscular guys.

Should he actually be glad that it wasn't those muscular arms that would hit him?

No.. he didn't want that..

He.. didn't even want to think of it.

'Lock-hyung...'

Maes didn't remember how long he was here, after getting chased by those guys and started gotten hit by those basketballs one after another.

Though, the only thing he prayed for right now.. was for his hyung to come and look for him soon.

No.

If it was possible, he wanted his brother to come to him right away.

He was scared..

Being with these people really terrified him...

Should he not have informed Naru-hyung's brother about what he heard at all—?

CREAK

Suddenly, a sound of the door being pushed was heard and that brightened Maes a lot.
