I entered my fifth period classroom, "No sign of Mako ever since first period," I foolishly tell myself, hoping that my statement came to fruition, for I did want to see the beast known as Mako, and his cold dead eyes. I sit down and begin to arrange my materials and various study work objects, for this period was science, a period of grace. I excelled in the study of science, and I knew no one was able to challenge the likes of me. And then, as if a bad omen had soon changed my fate, out from the door erupted the man himself, Mako. I immediately jump up from my seat, for the very image of him standing there made my stomach churn and even made me want to vomit. His appearance so dazzling and calm, yet within him was a completely different person. His eyes met mine and I stared the beast down, to the best of my abilities. But I was the prey, for Mako had made it very obvious that he was the apex predator, and I was merely his food. The mere thought of that daunted me, and I came towards Mako in a calm matter, to greet him. His slick sly smile made me want to spit in the mans face, for I knew that someone like Mako should not be approached in such daring manner. I am now in front of Mako and our eyes, still connected, not daring to break such long gaze. My hand extends to him, giving him the slight gesture of a handshake, he take the polite offer and gave me a smile of such kindness and radiance, but I was too quick to let my guard down. Immediately after his smile broke my gaze from him and unto the teacher, his hand gripped mine tighter, so tight that it felt as if my hand were to be crushed. He inches my ear close to his mouth, "listen here Joe, if I were you, I wouldn't be putting my guard down so easily, oh heavens no." His voice, so soft and tender, yet inside hidden with deep hatred, had Mako been doing such things because he was jealous? Mako released me quickly from his grasp and make me trip and fall, I made a fool of myself. Mako then fixes his vest for it was starting to come off, and he walked off to talk to the teacher. The bell had rung, and the class has now started.
Impossible, I told myself, for Mako had bested my class average in science with just being two points away from me. Mako knows that he is far more superior than me in any of these situations, the man could turn my own friends and family against me. Was that his plan? No, he wouldn't be making it that obvious, if he truly did plan to ruin my life, he wouldn't have been in such a broad approach, realizing this snapped something within me. I had found Mako's weakness. His impatience.
The day continued and I didn't see Mako at all, thank god I did not have band with the man, I was bad enough already. I walk home with Ko and for once it felt as if there was peace. But as soon as my brain had lead itself to a land of foolishness, when I arrived home, from the corner of my eye I could see Mako disappear from a tree. But I did not fear, for I knew that his pure ignorance to detail and impatience of anything, would be his downfall.
