Just Keep Being as Bystander

Chapter 3

The days repeatedly the same as always and today is Friday and tomorrow I go to Sawada's house

"Sawada-san, please answer this question"

I take a look at the board and the question have the same method as yesterday the way teacher teach and Sawada standing up and walk to the front, he picks up chalk and writes the answer,

"...P-perfect Sawada-san, you answer it correctly"

Annndd... all the student agape and shocked with how he answers even the teacher before giving his word to Sawada answer stutter a bit and of course, there will be someone who won't accept it

"Sensei, how can he answer the question? we only learn it by yesterday!!??"

"Yes, that's right how can a Dame like him answer it?"

And the class turned rowdy with a lot of complaining, Ah... if a certain person hears a loud noise from here we all might get bitten and the class will turn bloody and I already imagine it. Sawada at the front lowering his head, he looks... sad maybe because no one won't believe and accept how he can progress at his study

"Silence!"

All the noise silenced by the angry teacher

"Now then I'm curious too, can you tell me Sawada-san?"

"M-my friend teach me..."

"Huh? Dame-Tsuna have a friend?"

One of the students mock, but I'm thinking... is Sawada talking about me? well I mean after the first day we have lunch together, Sawada following me to eat lunch together and bring his own book and ask me to teach him even after school... and it's only just two days since that day!!??

"Oh, may I know this friend of yours is Sawada-san?"

Sawada raise his head and turn toward me, the teacher and all of the student turn to me as well

"The mute?"

You hear him right? the reason why I got the nickname because I almost never talk with anyone or they can't even hear my voice so they give me a nickname the mute

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

Tsuna pretty shocked hearing his friend nickname "the mute" because his friend is not mute at all and he got a very pretty voice, is the cause of it because of his friend's tone very tiny? and he remembered he never seeing Nobu has any conversation with other students, almost none...

"Yamato-san? then I won't be surprised"

"Why is that sensei?"

"Haah... he smart enough to have a full scholarship to a senior high school or even straight to college"

"EEEHHHH!!!???"

Tsuna shocked again, he didn't know Nobu that smart. And the bell ringing indicating for the lunch break

"Okay, that's it for today and remember the assignment I give you. Oh... and next week we have a quiz, so prepare yourself"

All the student groaning hearing the word quiz, Tsuna returned back to his desk and pull out his lunchbox and take some of his books, he walks together with Nobu but they suddenly been blocked by three student at the door

"Where are you going, Dame-Tsuna, the mute?"

"Eating lunch"

Tsuna answered fidgeting and get behind Nobu, Nobu disgusted by the student in front of him, first they whine and complaint about Tsuna can answer the question, second they mock Tsuna about having a friend. Ah.... Nobu really wanted the prefect was here to bite them all and truly what he wished for the person itself is already behind the trio

"Herbivore"

A low and deep tone from the prefect made the trio turn their head looking at the prefect who looking back at them with a pair of tonfa glinting

"H-H-Hibari"

"What are you doing? you blocking the door"

"N-nothing"

The trio run back to their seat, Hibari look at the class and leave. All of the student sighing and return back to what they're doing, Tsuna who hiding behind Nobu back from the start suddenly pulling Nobu hand make him a little bit taken back from Tsuna sudden action

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

What... Sawada pulling my hand? I mean, isn't he rather bold? I still being hold by Sawada until we reach the usual spot, Sawada then turn toward me and his face reddened a bit while he sheepisly avert his eye from me

"Sorry... for suddenly pulling you"

"No, it's okay. Shall we eat our lunch and do some homework?"

"Sure... please teach me well for today"

👣👣👣

"See you tomorrow, Sawada. I'll be here at 9 a.m"

"Un, see you"

I bid farewell to Sawada and go to supermarket to buy ingredients for dinner and tomorrow breakfast before back to my apartment since the place I work for today closed. Walking back I met with something that already common for me

"Wooow~, there's a student, luuckyy"

"Perfect~, a pocket money"

There's two gangster blocking my path, they have this sinister look but suddenly one of them hold my chin and licking his lips

"Gehehehe, wh, I wonder how it taste?"

I rolled my eyes and I stomp the foot at the one who hold my chin and punch the other one, after the punch I kick between his leg. The other one regain his conscious pull up a knive so I take a step back, the man smirked and rush to me attacking me with the knive, I dodge the attack and punch his abdomen until he fainted. I run leaving them to my apartment

Finally at the apartment I put the ingredient at the fridge and put my bag at the table near the window (imagine apartment from Bungou Stray Dog)

I prepare my painting kit and continue the painting that I left, I painting to sell it so I can make additional money after I done with the painting I clean up the kit and prepare dinner, after dinner I put the table to the sidewall and place it with futon, I take a shower and put my uniform on laundry

Before sleep as always I playing the guitar to end of my days completely not hearing the scream, bickering, yell, or the smell of drugs from neighborhood
