Class Fantasia: SIDE DATA

Load EX.Data 1: Days in Winter

"There's no messages from him today, huh?"

I looked down at my phone and released a sigh that I had been holding in as I walked down the hallway in the school.

It has already been a few months since he transferred away and I still can't get used to the lifestyle where I don't have him by my side. Man, I really am a bad luck magnet when it comes to life. Explains why I flunked the biology exams earlier.

"Sigh..."

As usual, my mind was about to ponder about what he is doing at this time of hour when an excited giggles and the echoing of murmurs caught my ears.

"Say, say! What are you gonna do about tomorrow?"

"Huh? That's a secret!"

"Oh come on! Tell me!"

Tomorrow? Ah, it's Valentine's day, huh? Oh yeah, that explains everything. Oh well, it has gotten nothing to do with me. Might as well make my way home.

Almost halfway through the school's entrace though was when the phone that I have in hand vibrated kicking in the adrenaline in me.

"Uwah!!!"

Luckily no one was around the entrance, minus the few who were busy with their lockers and such much to my ease. I could not afford the embarassment og having people seeing me getting scared at the sudden action my phone just made.

"Seriously, what timing could any- oh, is it from him?!! I won- oh."

My eyes narrowed in disgust when I saw that the message was from the Queen of Annoyance. But of course, being the kind me, I just have to look into the message to see what she wanted.

"[Hey Izzy! Are you free? Come see me, handsome!]"

The fact that she was being sarcastic in the message alone was enough to annoy me and with a simple "No", I closed the message app along with my phone and continued my march.

That was when my phone vibrated again much to my dismay.

Somehow, a quarter of me wanted to ignore the message because it could be from Aqilah herself asking why but most of me expected that it was a message from him so obviously, I did not ignore it.

"What."

Zooming in on the words blaring in my phone was from a guy but not him. It was from the second bane of my existence. Ansar. And what entailed in this message of his was nothing more than a simple "Help me, kind sir.".

What is with these lot and their sarcasms?

...

"Haha! Izzy! You actually came! Thanks!"

"Urgh."

I glared at the guy beside me who had this passive and innocent yet full of mischief that had dragged me down to this hell hole.

"You jerk. Why didn't you tell me the details?"

"You didn't ask."

"Oh I've had it with you!!"

"Huh? Why don't you just go home if you don't like it?"

"I've already made it this far, thanks to you. Why should I stop?"

"Figures much."

"Sigh."

"So.. are you two finished with your banter?",Aqilah said as she walked in between us.

"Uh, no."

"Great! Cause we need you two to help with something really important."

Either she is stupid and can't understand what no is or she is just being oblivious to that fact. But I'm not really the kind to turn down a request anyway. Somewhere in my mind was screaming 'You just did!' But I chose to ignore it..
