Unexpectedly

Chapter 13: Evil begins

A weeks passed,in the classroom, Arianne is hanging out with her "friends",Christina, Rachelle, and Sofia.
While Erick is crowded by his fangirls. But then Raphael and Marcus came to save him.

Raphael: "hey ladies, can you excuse us? We need to talk to Erick."

The fangirls glared at him, then they attacked him. While the fangirls are busying with Raphael, Marcus took the chance to hide Erick from the girls.
After that, Raphael finally escaped from the girls.

Raphael: *gasping* "you should thank me for that. I almost died there."
Marcus: "damn Rap, looks like those girls beat you so hard."
Raphael: *still gasping* "you think?"
Erick: "looks like Arianne is having fun with her friends."
Raphael: *looks at them* "wait, they're her friends?"
Erick: "umm... I think so.."
Raphael: "ohhh that's a bad decision."
Erick: "why? They seem friendly."
Marcus: "they may look so sweet and friendly, but they are snakes."
Raphael: "those bitches are back stabbers. Trust me, they have back stabbed almost everybody. Everybody hates them, but there are still stupid people that likes them"
Erick: "is that so?"

Later, Erick went near to Arianne, who is seating on her seat.

Erick: "hey."
Arianne: "oh hey."
Erick: "I see you're having fun with your friends."
Arianne: "yeah.. "
Erick: "I don't want to ruin your mood, but are you sure they like you?"
Arianne: "wait, what?"
Erick: "I mean, you've heard about them right?"
Arianne: "well yeah, but... they changed, they're good now."
Erick: "well you don't know.... Not all the time you're with them, you know?"
Arianne: "tsk! How can you be so sure about that?"
Erick: "I'm not saying that I'm sure, I'm just warning you."
Arianne: "tsk"
Erick: "fine, I'll just go ahead. I might go home early."
Arianne: "okay."

Erick go to his friends. Christina is already observing Erick and Arianne while they are having their conversation.

Christina: "hey, Arianne."
Arianne: "oh hi, Christina."
Christina: "I just noticed that you and Erick seems to be close, eh?"
Arianne: "well, not really."
Christina: "I was wondering.... does he have a girlfriend?"
Arianne: (she's in slut mode, hu?) "Uh..well.. I don't know...how would I know? I mean, we're not that close."
Christina: "hey, why don't you ask him?"
Arianne: "wait, what? Me? Hell no! He might have some ideas.."
Christina: "come on, your my friend right? My best friend?"

Arianne, feeling being threatened, agreed to ask Erick if he had a girlfriend.
Later, Arianne found Erick sitting alone on a bench.

Arianne: (perfect timing)

She go near him and ask.

Arianne: "h-hey Erick.."
Erick: "huh? What are you doing here?"
Arianne: " I-I have a question.."
Erick: "..."
Arianne: *looks away* "do you..have a girlfriend?"
Erick: "hmmm.... I don't know.. you guess."
Arianne: "how the heck do you expect me to know?"
Erick: "why ask that question?"
Arianne: "nothing."
Erick: "hmph please, there is a reason."
Arianne: "I said it's nothing."
Erick: "... tsk, then my answer's nothing."
Arianne: "what? Can you answer my question properly?"
Erick: "actually, I should ask you the same thing."
Arianne: *pissed* "whatever!"

Then she left and returned to Christina. Christina, Rachelle, and Sofia are they waiting.

Rachelle: "geez, what took you so long?"
Christina: "so what? Does he have or nah?"
Arianne: "I guess no."
Sofia: "what do you mean 'guess'? Did you even asked him or are you just shy to face him?"
Arianne: "look I did okay? I-It seems like he's avoiding me."
Sofia: "man, you're so useless."
Rachelle: "in this group, you need to be confident. No shy people allowed."
Christina: "girls, stop okay? She did what she can do.", "thank you for trying, Arianne"

And they left without Arianne. Arianne, feeling quite sad, go home by herself.
While going out of the gate, she saw Erick leaning on the wall.

Erick: "hey, what's with that face?"
Arianne: *ignores him*
Erick: (what's her problem?)

While waiting for a taxi...

Erick: "what's your problem now?"
Arianne: *completely ignores him*
Erick: (damn, women are so complicated)

They ride a taxi and went home. Yet, Arianne is still ignoring Erick until they went to sleep.
