Just Stay (Unedited)

Part One

Thank you for reading :)

"Is there anyone in here?"

Somebody broke the silent they had. They all shift their gaze from each other to the girl with a bag and a few books in her arm.

The slightly open door give the dark gloomy room a slight line of light. The light glow the red blood that pooling around them. Their wound face clear as the door give them more light when she open it.

A light yellow blouse knee cut, with a long sleeve and a turtle neck, with a blue typical jeans and a suede shoes, she gave a warm presence to the darkness.

She just stand there. Her eyes wide. Her mouth slightly open at the scene in front of her.

'Run idiot,' Cheng whisper. He has no power to shout. His hand press his stomach to stop the bleeding.

'Sh*t, the knife sure hit the right spot,' Cheng curse in his heart.

Zack and Adam unconscious at the corner of the small warehouse. Michael must have realize their missing so he can put his hope on him to send help.

Let's hope.

"What?"

"Umm... I thought I hear someone shouting so I just call the police just now," she talk so slow it seems like it just a whisper. Her eyes look so scared and her hand trembles.

"Damn! Let's go!" The gang with the steel weapon send the bleeding man, Cheng, on the floor a death glare, spit at the floor in front of him and give him a parting hateful smirk before take their leave.

They don't forget to send the girl a hateful glare make the girl flinch a little on her feet, hugging tightly her books.

They're gone.

Cheng look up at the girl.

The girl unexpectedly look calm in almost a flash of light. With the scene of blood in front of her, Cheng can't see her flinch. She slowly shift her eyes on the back of the idiot gang who just have left scared and just stare at him.

Their eyes meet.

She just open the freaking door shaking like a kitten just a moment ago but now, she seem... something.

Anything but scared.

Nonchalant. Doesn't matter. Calm.

She's freaking calm.

Cheng give her a glare, a get-the-hell-out-of-here glare but she didn't budge. She continue silently look at him like nothing happen.

She didn't even step forward to help him nor backward to retreat.

It calm him in a way.

That there's someone in this world, seeing him as fragile as this, won't leave him alone nor push him to answer all their f*cking question. That there's someone out there who silently wait, waiting HIM, to slowly come to them if he want to.

The sound of engine car break their silent. Hearing an Audi r8 engine roaming, he knows that the stupid friend of his just nervously took any key he can take on his blank mind and take one of his baby girl.

"That freak going to die," he mumble under his breath.

The girl shift, wanting to go.

"Stay alive," the girl speak. Not with a broken voice like a moment ago but a firm solid voice, as thought a demand, an order he need to keep.

As she said that, she left.

Cheng chuckle.

At the end, she choose to leave him.

Everyone choose the same choice.

But her voice echoing in his mind.

Firm and solid.

Trust him within whatever he will do afterward, he must obey the order.

"Stay alive," he whisper as he see his man running toward him and the two at the corner of the warehouse.

Now he can sleep.

They have finally safe so he can finally sleep.

Jay walk as fast as she can to the next class. Her mouth rambling over the notes of her previous class that she just read.

Somebody bump into her which make her bag fall on her feet and her books scatter around.

She jump, slightly kicking his pain feet in the air and she raise her heads look up at the sky as she hold her breath to ease the pain.

In the bag, a thick dictionary, a few textbook and stationaries. Damn, it hurt like urghhh!

Looking in front of her, the boy just give her a smirk and walk away.

'An apologize will send you straight to the hellfire, right?' she mumble in her heart.

She get down to her knee, pick up the books and her bag, and continue walking to her next class.
As her feet arrive, she take a sit a the back of the class and rummaging her bag seeking her textbook.

She open the previous chapter they learn and go through it for a minute and start reading the chapter they will learn.

Okay, re-read the chapter they will learn.

She have read it the night before.

She let go a small sigh. Her eyes turn toward the big window at the beautiful blue sky. How boring a university life can be? She really hate it but she have to satisfy somebody heart, soul and mind, so here she is, learning.

'I'm going to kill him with my own to hand someday,' she smirk of her own thinking.

As if you can Jay. Just look at the eyes send shiver to your spine, wanna kill him? Nah.

Man, life sure have it way to torture her.

But as she is here, she may give her best to make her chinese better.

Better?

The best of course.

I'm going to master this.

'How dare you speak to me as I am a nobody,'

She smile. That is adventure to her. A satisfaction. Someone look her, not knowing she capable of doing anything if she keep her mind on it, then zapp, they're wrong.

She chuckles.

Comeback from her daydreaming as the lecturer enter the class greeting them with a small talk and ready to start the class.

'Urgh, I always unable to finish to go through my reading if I daydreaming,' she mumble under her breath unsatisfied.

'Focus Jay,'

And in the blink of an eye, she's drawn to the poems of the great king of Wang Dynasty.
