Chopper
Lately, life has just gotten worse. My dad just won't stop trying to catch Nueng or Palm. Honestly, I don't know what he expects to achieve with this. He always complains about Nueng's mum or his family in general and if I don't laugh about his jokes or do what he tells me to he'd always get angry and grumpy. But these days - he mainly talks about Palm. Nueng's new boyfriend. One of his employees „catched" them hugging in an old factory building and I saw the photo myself - it was not the way you'd hug a friend.
So basically, I'm just sitting around at home, having to obey my father and sometimes play the bad guy for him. Even though I want nothing more than stopping him. He has big plans. Capturing Palm first, then Nueng. When Palm escapes, he'd for sure tell Nueng. But I know they're both smart.
Today at school was boring as fuck. I sat in the last row during Chinese class, barely listening to what the teacher is rambling about. Because I don't give a fuck about school. In the first few weeks, when Palm first joined this school, I noticed some kid growing closer with Nueng, but quickly falling apart again. I asked around a bit. Apparently, the kid's name was Ben. What a classic name. Bet his parents are foreigners and not from here. I don't know why, but there's something about this kid I just can't help but dislike. I dislike whatever he says. His movements. Even the way the uniform is a little too big and doesn't quite fit him. Even his hair.
Some time later, I noticed him in my Chinese class. He's pretty good. Palm - which I knew later - Nueng's boyfriend, sucked pretty much at the beginning but I noticed him improving pretty quickly. The week passed by and it was already Friday. Fridays are almost always those days where you know you can relax later in the evening. It went by peacefull. Well, until I dropped my notebook.
I accidentally dropped my notebook during maths. It fell with a loud smack. It seemed louder in the almost quiet classroom than ever. I wanted to pick it up real quick and pretend as if nobody has seen this - but as I looked down to look for it on the floor, it had landed exactly under Ben's table. I let out an annoyed sigh. Of course he noticed it and picked it up. -„Whose notebook is this?" He asked, earning an annoyed look from the teacher. -„It's mine." I said, looking around the class. He nodded as a response. I almost said „thank you". Luckily, I didn't. Because instead of throwing or giving it back to me, he opened it. -„Nice drawings." He commented. I rolled my eyes in annoyance. -„Can I please have it back?"
Ben looked up from it. -„What did you say? I didn't understand." -„I asked if I could have it back." He laughed. -„You can't." I huffed. -„It's not even yours. And who even gave you permission to look inside it?" Before Ben could respond anything smart, the teacher stepped in before I'd throw hands with Ben. He sighed. -„Ben, just give Chopper back his notebook and it's settled." But Ben didn't even budge. So the teacher went up to him, snatched my notebook out of his hands and handed it to me. He nodded as I quietly said „thank you".
The lesson went by pretty quick, and I went straight home, hoping not to run into Ben. Even though what just happened was weird as fuck, I let it slide. He made it clear he disliked me too. But still, why would he do that? I thought about it a lot that evening. Before I went to sleep, I decided it wasn't worth thinking so much about a small incident like this and besides - maybe he just wanted to annoy me and didn't have an intention. Yeah, that must be it. Since I couldn't come up with any reason why he dislikes me, I settled on him doing it for fun and just wanting to annoy anyone a litte. So I went to sleep deciding it'd be better for both of us if I didn't bring it up again.
