~ Patrick's POV ~
I'm back to ignoring the little kid again. He's just too naive and annoying.
Argh! What's taking belle so long?
I've been sitting here in Dunkin Donuts for an hour already.
"that bitch said that we'll meet here at 8 but she's already an hour late" I muttered then munch on my donut and took a sip from my hot coffee.
I then saw bell entered and walk towards me.
Finally.
She gave me her cute smile. Eh? What is she up to? I shouldn't be careless, who knows what goes on in that wicked head.
She threw something brownish on my table.
I leaned closer to examine the brownish stuff.
Its a... What the! A dog poop?!
"Hey! I'm eating!" I protested.
Belle smirked.
"Don't worry, that's just a toy"
"I don't care if it's just a toy! It still look as disgusting as the real one!"
Belle hushed me "keep your voice down, your disturbing the other customers"
I growled at her and finish munching my donut and drinking my (not anymore)hot coffee.
Then I grab the poop toy and
Slap!
slap belle's face with it.
"Ow!" she hissed at the assault.
"When somebody's eating, don't show that crap!" I warned.
"It's just a joke pat" belle defended.
"yeah, a very disgusting joke" I retorted.
"what's wrong with you? got your monthly period?" belle never ceased to annoy me.
"I'm a guy! you said we're going to meet here at 8" I yelled.
Belle laughed nervously.
"oh... sorry about that pat, I overslept" what a stupid excuse.
"wanna sleep for eternity? I'll give you a helping hand" I said as I crack my knuckles.Me and belle finally left and ride my brother's motor cycle towards the SPED Center where we'll conduct our gift giving party.
We finally reached our destination and enter the gate of the school and to the SPED Center of the school.
"Hello patrick, still as handsome as ever" Ms. Michelle complimented.
"advance merry christmas Ms. Michelle, where's aaron?" I asked with a not so energetic tone.
Ms. Michelle's eyebrow raised at me.
"is there something wrong?"
"uh... not really, just a little stressed"
"Don't stress your pretty face patrick"
I gave her a small smile "sure"
"aaron is in the HI class B room" Ms. Michelle said.
I nodded at her.
"thanks"
Then I walk towards the said room.
"here we are" I muttered as I reach the room where aaron is said to be.
"I can't understand what you're signing" I heard a familiar voice as I enter the room.
The brat?
"you?"
The brat turned to my direction and sigh(?)
"hello kuya patrick" he greeted me with less enthusiasm.
"what are you doing here? you don't have any business here" I walk closer to where he is sitting beside... Aaron(?)
Aaron saw me and gave me his warm smile.
'I miss you patrick' he said through sign language.
I gave him a warm smile as well before replying
'I miss you too' through sign language.
Finally, the frown on my face since this morning disappeared.
I'm also very cautious after what I did to belle this morning, I slapped her then yelled at her and I'm sure she won't let me get away with those.She's probably plotting against me right now.
I could feel the hairs of my body stand up in fright.
Take note: be careful when near belle, you'll never know if she's carrying any deadly weapon and never ever let your guard down when she's around.
"there you are patrick"
Gulp. Speaking of the devil.
Belle entered the room and notice aaron.
'hi aaron' she signed.
'hi' aaron replied through sign language.
"oh, the student of pat's mom is also here, what are you doing here kid?" Belle noticed the brat sitting beside aaron.
"Um... yeah" how bashful, the brat is blushing because of belle. Bleek!
"why are you here?" I asked the squirt.
The kid's blush faded as he turn to me.
"the son of my dad's boss brought me here" he replied.
Belle suddenly grabbed my shoulder. Is she finally getting her revenge?
"join us outside pat, mary is reading tarot cards" oh... so she's not getting her revenge yet.
"I'm not interested in those stuffs"
"come on, the cards might tell you your future" belle insisted.
I sighed in resignation.
"fine"
Belle grinned then turn to the kid beside aaron.
"you can come to... um, what's your name again?"
"joshua" the kid answered.
"join us joshua" belle invited the kid.
"sure" the kid replied with a smile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"you'll meet people from your past" mary told me as she stare at the three cards I picked.
"people from my past?"
Could it be my high school teachers and classmates?
"... They could be your friend, they could be your foe" mary continued.
A friend? A foe?
I noticed mary staring anxiously at the third card I picked. What's wrong with it?
"be careful pat, some people from your past isn't very friendly"
Gulp. Is that a warning? The stares that I'm getting from belle aren't friendly enough.
