*Riiiiiiinngggg*
Ahhh, the bell of dismissal. The 2 strangers actually talk to each other's like friends during class until dismissal.
"Hey, why don't the 2 of you hang around? Make sure to not get late," Marylin said.
"Nah, I'll go home; I have no money."
Marylin grabbed his brother's hand and gave him money.
"I am not sure what money does while the 2 of you hang around, but take this; I don't want to see you again playing games all night," Marilyn said.
Marylin kissed his brother on the cheek and started to walk home alone.
"You know, I could hang out with you!"
"What I want is to have a friendly relationship with someone; you can't even have a talk with a guy at school," Marylin shouted, cutting Jonathan's line.
Jonathan and Nicole were left alone in silence.
"What do you want to do?" Jonathan asked Nicole.
"I... don't know," Nicole replied.
"How about we go to the park and play Zombie Outbreak? Let's go to the store to buy some snacks," Jonathan said.
"Yeah, good idea."
Both of them started walking; both of them are in silence. Just looking at their surroundings like shy couples. Why won't these 2 just get along? They arrived at a nearby store. Nicole walks to the walk lane without looking at her surroundings.
Jonathan looked left and right... There's a truck coming. Jonathan looked at Nicole and calculated. Nicole doesn't have enough time to reach the other end of the road. If Jonathan pushes Nicole, Nicole will live, and he will get hit or die. If Jonathan ignores and idles, Nicole will get hit or die.
What is Jonathan going to do?
......
"Oh, I know, throughout calculation and ejaculation, we both will live."
Nicole looked to his right because of a noise; there is a truck coming at her and she has no time to move. She shrieked in horror as the truck came to her.
Suddenly, someone grabbed Nicole's hand with a strong force and hugged her tightly. The truck went past them at a swift moment. Nicole opened her eyes. Jonathan has his hand wrapped around her, hugging tightly.
"Let go of me! Why are you hugging me!?" Nicole shrieked as she escaped from Jonathan's grasp.
"Then what do you want me to do?" Jonathan asked.
"You should have pushed me!" Nicole replied.
"I would die; the truck has a big width, and I have no time to escape," Jonathan replied.
"Then you shouldn't have touched me," Nicole said.
"Then you would die," Jonathan replied.
"You should have pulled me away like some kind of sling throw!" Nicole said.
"Well, there's a chance you will trip over and be hurt and bruised if I keep holding your hand. We will both trip over because of your heaviness, and you will be on the ground, and I will land on top of you," Jonathan replied.
"Then you should have used your feet like a brake pedal to stop the both of us from falling!" Nicole said.
....
Jonathan went silent.
"Then I am sorry; I have no time to think more, okay?" Jonathan said.
"Just forget about it; let's just go and buy snacks," Nicole said.

At the plaza
"Nice game!" Jonathan celebrated as they finished their 25-minute game.
"Can you teach me some tips for the game later? You literally obliterated 75% of the zombies," Nicole said.
"Yeah, I'll teach you tonight," Jonathan replied.
Jonathan looked around; there were a lot of people playing around; some were having a date, some were talking, some were some were confessing to their girl, and a lot more. Jonathan saw 2 kids playing badminton.
"Want to play badminton?" Jonathan asked.
"If they want to share or give it to us," Nicole replied.
Jonathan put his trash in his pocket and approached the 2. He asked if he could borrow their rackets, and they gladly accepted.
"Nicole!" Jonathan shouted as he waved the other pair of racket.
Nicole went to Jonathan and took the racket from him; she went to her position.
"I'll set it,Jonathan said.
Jonathan threw the shuttlecock on the air and hit it going towards Nicole.
*Smack*
Nicole just spiked, and the shuttlecock went straight to the ground. The 2 kids started laughing.
"The game just started; why are you spiking?" Jonathan complained.
Nicole just smiled like a maniac, and Jonathan picked up the shuttlecock and did a set again.
*Smack*
Nicole did a spike again ending the game early.
"You know what," Jonathan said, going into serious mode.
Jonathan picked up the shuttlecock, threw it in the air, and hit it. Nicole raised her racket for another spike again. But Jonathan is ready this time.
*Smack*
At an immense speed, Jonathan went to where the shuttlecock was going and hit it on time. Nicole and the 2 kids are in awe, but Nicole went back to her consciousness and hit the shuttlecock.
Jonathan hit it again; this is it; an epic battle has started.
*Tuktuktuktuktuktuktuk*
They started to make barrages of hits nonstop.
*Tuktuktuktuktuktuktuk*
*Floom*
The shuttlecock burst into flame, and the 2 kids panicked as they saw it burst into flame. The other people around on the plaza caught their eyes and started watching Jonathan and Nicole's battle at an immense speed, hitting the shuttlecock.
*Tuk*
"Oh sh*t! It went the other way!" Jonathan thought to herself.
He jumped towards the shuttlecock and hit it on time.
*Smack*
Nicole did another spike. You know what? Enough is enough, Jonathan thought to himself. He hit it, but he made it go to the sky. Jonathan raised his racket, waiting for it to come down and
*Smack*
*Vrooooom*
*Tack*
The shuttlecock hit right on Nicole's forehead at lightning speed. Nicole fell to the ground because of the strong impact.
Jonathan was victorious. Jonathan looked around, and people went back to what they were doing like nothing happened.
"Wow, sir! That was cool!" One of the kids said to Jonathan.
"Teach us! Teach us!" The other shouted
"Listen here, kids; both of your bodies are not fit for my abilities and skills, so wait till the both of you grow up," Jonathan replied.
Jonathan looked at Nicole's body on the ground, her legs resting up, revealing the pants from her skirt. He also looked at the shuttlecock near her; it was badly damaged and burned.
"Can both of you look that way?" Jonathan said to the 2 kids to prevent them from looking at Nicole's... Aherm
"Oh yeah, and here's some money to buy a new shuttlecock; sorry for burning it. There is a store right there to buy one," Jonathan added.
Jonathan went to Nicole and put her legs down with his feet. He took the racket from her hand and gave it back to the 2 kids.
"Hey wake up, Nicole, let's go home. It's getting dark," Jonathan said to Nicole.
Nicole whimpers
"Thank you for the fun," Nicole said.
