The Bound Collision

Chapter 7

The next morning Fourth woke up when Ford called him, informing him about P'Mix's arrival, he had come to visit him. Fourth got up rubbing his eyes. Both he and Ford had their classes starting late today. He looked at the clock to see it was past 9, he had slept for quite a while, he still had more than two hour before his classes started he got up and got fresh before P'Mix arrived.

 P'Mix changed his bandage, though he asked Fourth to rest today but Fourth insisted in attending his classes, Defeated, P'Mix asked him to be careful with his wound, not to get it wet, prescribed him a few necessary meds, patted his head as he walked away.

When Ford barged into Fourth's room, Fourth was standing in front of the bedroom mirror buttoning his shirt up.

"Where's P'Phu?", Fourth enquired Ford as he sensed the other's presence

"He had a morning class around 9, he left earlier", Ford replied, "Don't you think you should be staying back today", Ford said as he settled on the bed.

"No", Fourth said as he buttoned his shirt up to look at Ford, "I'm fine, I've slept enough and taken the meds, and more of all its just a bullet graze, the bullet did not pierce me or something", Fourth ended, taking up his laptop and placing it into his backpack, but when he looked back he saw Ford staring at him in astonishment,

"What?", Fourth asked furrowing his eyebrows in a bit confusion

"Di-did y-you give m-me-", Ford tried to stutter as Fourth just blankly stared at him

"Give what?", confusion purely evident in Fourth's face

"Did you-did you just-right now-exactly right now-gave me a straight ass answer?", Ford's right palm on his left side dramatically clutching his  chest as his eyes were wide, "Like no sarcasm, no pun, no nothing, just a straight ass assertive sentence, dude-", Ford still continued with his 'imma shocked' face

 "You Done?", Fourth asked in a low tone a he blankly stared at Ford

Ford just looked at Fourth with a huge smile as he nodded his head cheerfully, Fourth rolled his eyes, sighed and then picked up his backup to walk out of his room without looking back at Ford as Ford followed laughing 

On reaching Uni, While Ford parked the car, Fourth got out to get coffee for both of them. Both of them had continuous classes till at least 3:30 in the afternoon. As they parted ways to get to their classes, Fourth quickly paced to reach room no. 18 on third floor of his faculty to start with his first lecture. 

The day went on really tiring, Fourth got himself one more coffee cup before he went to the third lecture of the day, but at the end of his third lecture of the day, Fourth checked his phone to see that the fourth lecture has been cancelled due to some reason, and now he had no more classes for today

Considering he had good amount of time left till Ford gets free, Fourth set off towards the canteen to get something to eat. On reaching the canteen he quickly ordered himself some food as he took his tray and seated himself on an empty bench, putting on his airpods and switching on his playlist Fourth started eating, he'll order Ford's favorite after he is done eating, Ford will be here in the next 30  minutes. 

Fourth quite didn't know how much time has passed when he suddenly felt someone lean on him followed by a sudden jerk on his right arm, Fourth looked up as he saw a girl, smiling, siting in front of him. He saw the girl trying to say something, so he took off his right airpod and looked at her, he faintly recognized her from yesterday's classes, she had come up to him to get his name and talk to him.

"Yes?", Fourth looked at her

"I've been calling you for soo long", the girl whined a bit her voice a bit shrill
