Operation Centuria: The First 25

Day 5: Anime "The Reason" by Jane

He’s the worst. Evil. Harmful.Wicked. And I really hate him. Every bit of him, even his shoes, his pants, his rockstar-type bracelets, his hair, his bag, his scornful looks, his voice, his smell, his pinkish lips, his hands, his boxers that I saw yesterday hanging outside of their house, and his disgusting, unpleasant, crummy green eyes! Have I told you that I really really hate him?

Third grade - He ripped off my favorite shirt and punched me directly at the face.

Fourth grade - He called me “piggy” in front of my long time crush.

First year - He put some spicy ingredients over my food and I needed to stop going to class for a whole week, P.S I have an allergy in spicy foods.

Second year - He spill a whole gallon of water over my body, P.P.S, he said it was an accident.

Third year - He throw a gum at my lovingly soft hair, and that was the reason that I need to cut it.

Fourth year - On going.

“Watch were you’re going wit head” I said because there’s an unpleasant someone who bumped me and never said sorry. And speaking of the devil. “Oh, sorry, thought it was just a pig floating around” and then he grins. “You must try to visit the zoo, Raven, something’s wrong with your head” I devilishly laugh. “Why should I visit the zoo Aria, if my favorite pig was not there, if you plan to come back, text me so I will really drop by” My cheeks redden, not because I’m blushing! It’s because of this disgusting guy in front of me. Students around us started to laugh and shout “boo.” I rolled my eyes at him and walk pass through him, one day… one day karma would absolutely visit you Raven.

Lunchtime. “Gosh Aria! The new episode of Fairy Tail was released yesterday!” my best friend told me, by shouting right to my ear! “Yeah I know, would you stop doing that?” She look at me, raising an eyebrow. “That shouting thing right through my ear, it kinda irritates me” I said with a serious tone. I can’t get that Raven off my head! Fudge. “Look what we have here” Oh gosh. Not again. “Thea, I should go back to the  classroom before I kick someone on his what-hurts-the-most part” I glared at Raven, but he just laugh. Aish! Damn him! “Afraid of me ms. Aria?” he ask me with a teasing smile. “Not at all, mr. Raven” I quickly grab my bag and headed to the room, I hate his guts! Everything about him! He makes my day worst! He is absolutely… my jinx.

Classroom. It didn’t surprise me when I saw Raven standing in front of the classroom with his crazy foolish smile. Starting a fuss again. “Hi unlovely, lousy, miscreated, creature” I don’t have to guess who’s that person is. Ugh! Silently, I walk to my chair, sat down and when I did, there’s a wet paint in it. “Raven!!” 

That happened last week. That was it. I had enough. I ignored him all week, like he was just some air. “Aria, for you” there was an Anime dvd in my desk. I saw my best friend Thea standing in front of me. “Thanks” I grab it quickly and put it on my bag. “You really love Anime huh?” I gave her my oh-so sweet smile. “Definitely Thea” . 

Our English literature teacher announced that we will have an activity, some sort of the-teacher-would-ask-and-you-need-to-answer-it game but with your group. “Okay, okay… here’s your list, go up front to see your own group” This is so not good.Fudge. It can’t be. Raven’s in my group! Ugh! I need patience. Absolute patience. A hundred percent patience. Whoo! I can do this. We form a mini circle and talked about the questions our teacher might ask, and fortunately, I did ignore him! Hah! In his oh-so crappy face!

“Group 2” our group was called. It’s time! Inhale, Exhale. I rolled my eyes at that certain someone who’s trying to stop his laugh. “First question, what is literature by all means?” I was about to answer when someone precede to answer. “Literature is the art of written work and can, in some circumstances ma’am, refer exclusively to published sources” What a smug. “Very good mr. Raven, okay next question, define literacy” I raise my hand and answered. “Literacy ma’am is the ability to read for knowledge and interest, write coherently and think critically about the written word” Well done Aria! “A job well done ms. Aria and also, mr. Raven, if you may, can I ask you a question?” We both nod. “What’s your favorite thing that was ever created?” there’s definitely one thing. 

“Anime”I was shocked, my mouth hang open. He and I… exactly said the same word at the same time. “Looks like we both definitely love Anime ms. Aria” I saw his… sincere smile and the radiant sunshine didn’t stop me from staring…at him. He just smiled at me, wholeheartedly, and I can feel it. The class was silent and one voice bash in “So that’s why Aria accepted Raven’s gift… the Anime dvd” For the second time, I was shocked. He smiled, I frown. He wink, I blush. He took a step closer, I took a step backwards. He hold my hands, I tried to escape from him. he whispered “Anime used to be my world, and then you came… would you want to conquer it?”

His diary.

She’s pretty. And I like her even her shoes,her pants, her pink bracelets, her hair, her bag, her ears, her voice, her smell, her red lips, her hands, her Anime dvd’s and definitely her cute, little brown eyes. Have I told you that I really like her?

Third grade - I ripped off her favorite shirt because some girl put some worms and different kind of insects in it, that she didn’t notice, I was so scared that she might catch a disease so I ruin it, I didn’t punch her! Someone did, and she thought it was me.

Fourth grade - I was really jealous with her crush so I purposely called her piggy, to annoy her.

First year - Thea found out my secret, that I’m in love with her best friend so she always teased me, I secretly put some spicy ingredients but I didn’t know that it was her’s. 

Second year - I swear. The water was purely accident! I’m really disappointed with myself.

Third year - There’s a group of boys that I heard talking on the comfort room, it’s all about Aria’s hair, how soft they are, and how much they really like her long hair, and they really like Aria, so I purposely threw a gum on that stupid hair.

Fourth year - I really love her annoyed face so I always tease her.Her frowning eyebrows makes me smile. Her biting lips makes me wanna kiss her. And her not-so-sweet words to me makes me wanna shout with joy, the girl I thought that will never be mine, I thought that I might just look at her from afar, was now officially my girlfriend.

And Anime was the reason.
