"Oh come on! Joshie! Let's Play!" Yra is shouting at me again, clutching my arms and dragging me to the playground in the park in front of our school.
"Why do you always want to play there. We're not kids anymore you know? And I told you not to call me Joshie anymore." I'm holding my head up high as if I'm really a grown old man. But when I glance at her she's just silly smiling.
"But we're just 9! And what's wrong with Joshie? it's cute!" She pouts and I just give up and play with her in the playground.
I got so tired of playing with other kids and I just looked in the trees. I wonder how old they might be right now. And the thought of growing up came across to my mind.
Somehow, I want to grow old enough. So I could beat my brother, be it in studies or talents... So I could be better than him.
"What are you thinking about?" I'm so hyped up when Yra asked me a question.
"Mmm" Shaking my head to disagree and trying to change the topic. "Where's your sister Yna?"
"I don't know! Do I look like my sister's keeper?!" Suddenly with that question, I got her angry. Whenever I say her name, she just switches her mood. I wonder if she doesn't like talking about her twin.
"Oh there she is!" I say pointing to the fifth tree next to the bench where we are standing. And she's standing with their mom behind her. "I think you're about to go home now." I told her and she just left me without a good bye.
It is now my third grade in this school, although I am the president of our class. I barely have friends. Because I only think of them as my followers, and just like the king that doesn't talk to his slaves. I don't like to have any interactions with my classmates unless they have to do something for me.
Although I got my power from being a Class President. I also know how to make my classmates obey by knowing their weaknesses. And if they don't I will tell the teachers all their failures, misdeads and offenses. How do I know this? Beacuse I am also the class valedictorian. I'm smart of course. You can't be a king if you're stupid.
My only friend is Yra. She just transffered with her sister this school year so I can't let them know yet my secret. Although I'm always with Yra, I rarely tak to Yna. Maybe because all she does is read and read and read and read. Hahahahaha. Maybe she's so stupid she have to read a lot just to come along with our lessons. Poor kid. That's why I chose to be with Yra more. Plus, she's pretty. Even though Yra and Yna are identical. Yra is prettier because Yna is so fat and she wears glasses. That's why.
This kind of school life makes me really happy I wish it's always like this anywhere I go. I am always the best and no one's going to be better than me and beat me in anything. There will be no Edward to make me feel like a loser. Like what I do is not always enough. Like my whole like is a mistake. A Failure. There will be no King Edward.
I always like the end of the first semester, It makes me feel more powerful.
The teacher now comes infront to the bulletin board to post the first semester's ranking. That document like renews my honor. I could feel the energy.
