TGJ 2: My Grumpy Jerk (On Hiatus)

Chapter 26

Shinki's POV

Rarely playing tennis on a late sunny morning. I can feel the heat on my skin I will likely get sunburn after this. Sweats dripped all over my body. I keep swinging left and right nonstop.

I'm putting all my frustration on the racket and swinging all my anger toward the ball.

"Just how?! How did it happen?!" I slam the racket to the ground. My knees weakened and I too fall to the ground. I'm so frustrated. Just how did that geek win the election? I still could not believe it!

"Young master, are you okay?" Lyndon approaches me all so worried.

"I told you it's not a good idea to play tennis today," he is panicking and goes to pick up the racket and the balls scattered on the court.

"Stop worrying about me, Lyndon. I'm more worried about dad's opinion of me losing the election than this pathetic play," I wipe my sweat with the towel he gave me.

"Young master, get inside already. The sun is burning hot today," he pleads. I don't want to worry him anymore so I accepted his suggestion and get inside the house.

"You're so dramatic dear brother," I can hear Araya chuckling to me.

"Don't dare spoil the day, even more, idiot," I scoff and he laughs as he pities me.

"I can't believe an ordinary girl like Sarada beats you in the election," he keeps teasing me and it's completely annoying.

"Oh, you're not pissing me off, right?" I intensify my tone so he will notice that I'm being serious.

"Okay, you still don't accept my suggestion," he shrugs as he sits on the couch.

"Can you get us some tea and snacks, Lyndon?" I ask him and he nods and leaves immediately.

"What suggestion? I don't remember you having a brilliant idea regarding such a matter," I try to provoke him annoyingly like how he did to me earlier.

"How cruel of you to say that but, I still pity you," he grins stupidly. He sure wants to annoy me and bite his so-called idea which I consider useless.

"What idea do you suggest to me though? I'm expecting something awesome from you and not a new set of nonsense," I tell him and he chuckles.

"That mouth of yours is like dad. You are like him," he mentions which I roll my eyes.

"Dad and I are not alike. He has proven himself at a young age that's why grandpa is so proud of him and here I am still behind him and haven't done well since I started Grà," I pathetically tell him.

"You're putting so much pressure on your shoulders so you're the one to blame," I hate to admit it but he is right.

"But I just want to fit in his expectations so I can gain his trust," I snort.

"You already proved yourself to him, what more do you want?" he shrugs and rolls his eyes.

"That's a lie. Mind you he is going to bring up the election when he gets home from his business trip," I click my tongue in disgust.

"This Sarada girl is unpredictable," he mutters in amazement.

"There's no doubt Yodo was almost kicked out in high school because of her," he adds.

Yodo was stupid for blindly crushing on that bastard Kawaki.

"She is an obstacle to my plans. I must get rid of her as soon as possible or dad will change his mind and make you the heir to his wealth," I smirk at him and he laughs insanely.
