CHAPTER THREE

Arnold's POV

The days passed and I can't seem to find him anywhere. it will help a lot if I know his name but unfortunately I don't have that information.

I went to the locker room to get changed into my jersey since we have a practice game for our team, our new coach is quite determined to win another championship this year.

"How was your vacation?" Reynald our captain asked me.

"It was awesome, we went to Palawan and did some island hopping." I said while unbuttoning my polo and removing my undershirt.

Few minutes have passed and finally all of the players are already doing warm ups in the gym.

"Ok team, our team is the strongest this year and I am confident that we are still going to bring home that championship." Coach Ravena said confident in his voice.

In every team or group there is always someone that will never agree with your personality and his name is Mike Santos.

Mike is my senior and ever since I joined the team, he despised me which confuses me since I didn't do anything bad to him.

"Ok guys we're going to split you into two teams, freshmen and sophomores versus juniors and seniors." Coach Ravena said.

Even though it's just a practice game, both teams are determined to win, and both teams are already giving everything to beat the other team.

Last ten seconds tied at 75, our team's ball possession. Two players are guarding me which made it hard for my team mate to pass me the ball.

"Louie pass the ball to Larry." I shouted after seeing Larry is free to take shot.

Everyone is waiting if the ball will get in or not but unfortunately it didn't, but just like a hero, I rebound the ball and dunk the missed ball and with that we won 77-75.

I approached Mike. "Great game." I said smiling waiting for him to shake my hand which didn't happen since he just look at me like throwing daggers at me and left.

I just shrugged my should since I'm used to Mike's attitude, I went back to my team mates and celebrated with them.

"Let's go Arnold." Larry said to me waiting for me to follow.

"Go ahead guys, I will just do some shooting." I said since I'm planning on doing some shooting before going home.

I didn't notice the time and by the time I left the gym and took a quick shower it's already nine in the evening.

It's a good thing that I'm living alone because if not I know my mom is going to kill me for going home late.

I'm about to ride my bike when I saw light coming from the architecture's building which is weird sice classes ended two hours ago.

Curiosity won me over, and my feet started to move on it's accord and was not surprised when found that the gate in that building is unlocked. I didn't mind the darkness since there is still light coming from the light post outside.

"What am I thinking, it's probably the janitor cleaning the room."I said to myself and was about to leave when I heard someone is crying inside.

I tried to take a peek and was shocked when I saw what's causing that noise. The same guy that's bothering my thought for almost everyday us lying naked curled on the floor.

Aside from the fact that he is naked, it's also noticeable the bruises and the wounds all over his body as if he was beaten.

"Are you ok?" I said worried in my voice thinking who would do this kind of things.

I saw how much he flinched since it seems that he didn't noticed me entering the room.

"Who are you?" he asked me clearly terrified by just looking in his handsome face.

"I'm Arnold, here take my jacket." I said while taking off my jacket when I noticed that his uniform shredded to pieces.

A big lump formed inside my heart, it hurts me more to see this boy in this miserable state that he is in.

"Thank you." he said.

I turned around when I noticed him standing up, try to put on my jacket, and for crying out loud in times like this, I still managed to nocited that he is a bit skinny but have enough muscles in the right places.

"You can turn around now." he said.

"What happened to you? who did this to you?" I asked him one question to another because in my two years stay in this school I've never heard something like this happening in our school.

He just smiled without any humor, and I can feel the pain in him and I can feel anger is building inside me to the person that harmed this guy.

"Just forget everything that you saw today." he said which confuses me more.n.

I was lost for words in what he said, I mean how can he expect me to forget something like this when it's making me hurt inside.

"How can you say that?" I said still can't believe that we are having this kind of conversation.

He smiled bitterly. "Don't worry this is not the first time that I experienced this, I'm already used to it." he said void from any emotion.

"Fine! If you don't want to tell me the ok, but let me help you putting medicine in your wounds." I said then grabbed the emergency kit in my backpack which I usually bring anywhere I go sualy brings anywhere I go.

I can see that he doesn't want to but I'm quite a pushy type of guy.

I cleaned his wound with betadine and used some plasters for the bruises and the wounds all over his body

"Thanks again." he said started to stand up.

"Let me take you home." I offered since I'm still worried for the safety of this unknown guy that messed with my head.

"No that's alright." he said and didn't stopped him from leaving, when a question popped into my head.

I noticed an I.D on the floor and noticed that it's his I.D.

Jake Angelo College of Architecture.

"Jake." I said to myself thinking about the guy that messed with my head.
