The Other.(Discontinue)

What are you afraid of? It could be a scary things or something else. Could be a horror scenes like in a movie. But me? I'm not afraid of those stuff. Not about the things that I couldn't see like ghost or something. Or blood. Or dead body. It was something closer than that, something that you couldn't even realized even though you are so close with it. Or I could said it's inside you.

Monday, September 15th.

This story started at this morning. Where all I can see was a lazy faces on everyone's faces. They could've just runaway if they don't wanna be here, but there's something else that made them couldn't do that. Just like the reason why I'm here, studying probably.  I just walked straight to the small crowd that sitting on the ground with the tree as the shelter.

I could heard that they were laughing at one boy's joke on that crowd. There's two boys and three girls. I kept walked straight to them without saying anything. When I got closer, they all turned their head to me and said, "Hey, Will." I just gave a nod and stood up in front of a girl who didn't greeted me. She just smiled while I opened my bag.

"What do you got, baby brother?" Yeah, that girl was my older sister, Ashley. She kept looking at me. I took something from bag, it was a books. I grabbed one of them and gave it to her. She took it from my hand and thanking me. I opened my mouth, "You have to pay me for that." I tried to make a joke, and she smiled. "I love you."

"Is that because I'm doing your homework or because I was your brother?"

Ashley making a sound with her mouth like she was thinking about something, "Both."

I nodded, "It's free then."

I grabbed another book and gave to another girl with a blonde hair, Sarah. After she received the book, I was going to tell her the same thing. But, "Will, I love you so-SO MUCH! More than the way your sister did." I knew she tried to get away from it. But I all ready figured it out, "Only my mom could love me more than the way my sister did." I tried so hard not to laugh. Sarah tried to beg me and it was hilarious. Even Ashley and the other couldn't stopped laughing.

"Please, I'll give everything but money."

I didn't answered it right away. I'm thinking about it. Then something came out of my mind, "How about a, hug?" I said it awkwardly. The only person who ever hugged me was my sister and my parents. And for some reason I felt embarrassed just for asking it.

Sarah yelled, "Yes!" And stood up for hugged me. It was stupid. But I felt good too because I saw my sister and her friends couldn't stopped laughing. Sarah let go of me and sat down again.  Now I gave the last book to a boy with a brown hair, Peter.

When I gave it, I could see he was going to hugged me. But I stepped back immediately and said, "Only my dad was the only guy who can hug me." I said it calmly. Now the other laughing at Peter, and I could heard my sister said, "Damn, mom and dad are gonna be proud of you." I smiled a little bit at it. I was so embarrassed to laugh in front of people.

Peter sighed, then he begged the same thing. But I don't think that's a good idea, "No, I don't think so." Now everyone laugh more louder because of Peter's bad luck. He sighed and gave me some money. Then I said goodbye and walked away to the inside of the school building. And I could heard they yelled to me from my back that they will met me at lunch.

As I walked in, for some reason I'm blushing. This was the first time I talked that much. And it's feels weird. Embarrassing. But kinda fun. I don't know, I just felt happy but weird at the same time. I don't wanna think about it any further, I just kept walking in to my locker.
