Chapter 18: A Deal We Made

A Deal We Made

[New Arc:- Battle Theatre]

Same day, Time 12:36,
On the terrace of the school

Leo and Melvin having lunch while sitting on the edge, observing other students walking by. Melvin uses telekinesis to float his sandwich, bringing it near his mouth when he needs a bite while being engrossed in his phone.

Leo inquires: "So... She's ignoring you now?"

Melvin: *Sigh* "Yeah... *Munch munch* Need to find a good opportunity to apologize..."

Leo: "Don't worry, she isn't someone who will stay angry for long... especially not at you. She actually respects you a lot..."

Melvin: "Used to..."

Leo: "Nah! I'm sure she still does, just a little upset with you... she values you a lot, you know? Since you came, she's been more lively than I've seen her before. And our friend group feels complete too..."

Melvin puts his head down: "Ugh, and I am the reason it's broken now 😓"

Leo: "Chill, man, it's not that big a deal. Just a first small fight between friends; it makes bonds stronger."

Melvin: "Since when did you start talking so philosophically -_-?"

Leo: "Since you started being so depressed and negative 😂"

*Silent munching*

Leo: *Sigh* Just because of you two, we can't eat together now ughh... *proceeds to take a sandwich from Melvin's plate*"

Melvin: "-_-
Why? You miss eating lunch from their plates too 🙄?"

Leo angrily responds: "Huh!? NO! That's not it!"

Melvin chuckles: "That's exactly it... *Munch* *munch*"

Leo: "Hmm, what's even wrong with sharing, man..."

"Leo notices Melvin lost in thought."

Leo, curious: "What thought did you lose yourself in now?"

Melvin: "Hmm? How did you know?"

Leo: "Because you're just staring at your blank, turned-off mobile screen 😐"

Melvin: "😅 *nodding*"

Melvin: "I'm just... thinking about last night's encounter with the president..."

Leo: "Yeah, what about it?"

Melvin: "Never thought there are other people who can have the same power as me too... Not to mention, he seems way more skilled than me..."

Leo: "Ooo... It's no wonder considering how big the world is...
And you know what I think?"

Melvin: "Hmm? What?"

Leo: "He was probably as curious as you, knowing another person has the same power as him...
Most probably that's also the reason he came to check on you mainly last night."

Melvin: "And what made you think that?"

Leo: "Because he knew your name... And knowing every student's name isn't something council members do..."

Melvin: "That's surprising...

But the move he was using... Without even breaking a sweat... he put us all on our knees.

I want to learn that move too!"

Leo: "He did say he would teach you about his powers?"

Melvin: "I know, but only if I prove myself by the end of the first semester. No idea how I'm supposed to prove it... Ughh, I want to learn it now!"
