Misfire

Kriss came to me and asked me if everything was fine I said that it was all fine. At the same time Rachel went to Aaron and asked the same thing. Rachel then looked at me and smiled. Once everyone was in, the tutor said that she was gonna let us have some free time and we could draw whatever interests us. She then gave us some papers. Everyone was talking about the fight Aaron and I had. I had no ideas about what should I draw. I was too distracted by everyone talking about me. I never got that much attention.

For an inspiration, I looked at what Kriss was drawing. He was drawing something that looked like a bottle held in a basket. He said that it was a lantern. Then I decided on drawing a man sleeping on his bed covered by his blanket. I drew it. It didn't look that bad. I showed it to Kriss but he didn't pay any attention as he was too busy doing the " finishing touches" of his drawing. I handed my drawing over to the tutor.

She looked at it and said interesting. I asked her if it was fine. She said that it wasn't that good but at least I made an effort. I understood what she mean when I looked at the drawings some other kids had made, some kids drew trees, some drew a ball and the one that I thought was totally a failure was the one Aaron had drawn. He drew a face.

The shape of the face resembled to an egg. In the place of eyes he drew a line and instead of a mouth he drew squares which I assume where the teeth of the person that he had drawn. I felt that I wasn't the worst at drawing after seeing what others had drawn especially Aaron. I'm sure he joined these classes just so that he could bully people and roam around Rachel.

Once the class was over the tutor told us that we could go back home. We went out one after another since we had to use the lift and no one would want to descend 5 floors using the stairs. Kriss and I just waited till everyone had gone beacuse we weren't in any rush to go down. When it was our turn to get into the lift, Aaron, Rachel and one of Aaron's homies got in too. I was trying to show Rachel that I was a gentleman, I let them get in the lift first.

When I was about to get in, Aaron who was already in the lift put his leg out trying to trip me over. I got mad. I wanted to fight him right there but I couldn't, Rachel was there and I was trying to be a gentleman. All I did was I told Aaron that one of his screws were loose. Aaron looked at me trying to show that he'll beat me up. Everyone in the lift except Aaron and I giggled. Then Aaron looked at everyone and the everyone in the lift were silent for a moment, the door then slid open. I got out and took my phone out in order to see the time.

Before I could take a glance on my phone, Aaron snatched my phone. I ran behind him around the whole compound. I finally caught him. I slammed him to the wall. His homies were around me, they were ready to fight. Rachel was looking at us so I had to act tough. I told myself in my head, "Ridhwan you have to fight!"

I didn't really want to fight. I wasn't in a mood of fighting. I was feeling sleepy, but I had to do something in order to show that I'm tough. I punched the wall beside him, just millimeters away from his face. I hit the wall really hard, a loud noise had produced, Aaron got scared for a second. My hand was killing me. It was really painful but I acted normal to show that I'm strong and not weak.

I snatched my phone from his hand and went away. Kriss then came to me asking if everything was okay. Before I could say something, Rachel came to me, she  apologized to me on the behalf of Aaron and pleaded me not to tell anyone because that will lead to Aaron being in trouble. I told her that I won't.

Once she had gone, Kriss told me why Rachel begged. It was because Aaron's parents were fed up of him and had given him a last chance. If I would complain about Aaron then he would be in a huge amount of trouble but that would lead to Rachel being sad and I didn't want that to happen. I called my driver to come pick me upHe said that he was stuck in traffic and it'll take some time for him to arrive.

Everyone started to leave, Kriss had left, Jeremiah had left, and even Rachel had left. In about 10 minutes, the place was almost empty. Only Aaron, some other kids and I was left. After five more minutes had passed it was only Aaron and I left. We didn't really talk or do much. He stayed on one side of the place and I stayed on the other. Then he made a face to me telling me that I'll die. I told him get lost. My car then arrived.

I got in the car and left for home. My knuckles were still hurting from the punch I had given to the wall. Once I reach home, I got down of the car and used to stairs to ascend. While I was about the second floor, I slipped and landed right on my wrist. My right wrist had fortunately broken my fall. I went to my house, rang the bell, the door opened and I got in. I directly went to bed. I was feeling super sleepy.

I woke up at 6 pm. My right wrist was surprisingly hurting a lot. I went and told my mom about it. She asked me to move it around. My mom is a doctor so she knows medical stuff. Then she asked me how it started paining. I told her how I had fell. She said that there was nothing to worry about and it could be a sprain or a minor fracture. She made some calls and told me to get ready and told me that we were going ,to do an x-ray of my wrist, to the hospital. I got ready and we left.

Once we reach, there was this man waiting for us standing by the reception of the hospital. He asked us to follow him. He took us to some place. There was a huge machine in there. It was the x-ray machine. They asked me to do lay my hand on it and they took some x-rays of my wrist.

Then the man again asked us to follow him. He took us to his office and asked us to take a seat. My mom and I sat down on a chair with fancy designs that was placed in the man's office. For about five minutes, my mom and that man had some medical talk until when this other man came in with my X-ray reports.

The doctor saw the report, and told us that I had gotten a airline and I'll be fine in about three weeks. From a drawer under his desk, he took out some type of belt and asked me to wear it. That belt was supposed to support my wrist. My mom and I went home and had dinner. Then I went back to sleep. The next day I woke up at 10am, had my breakfast, freshened up and asked my mom if I could go to the classes a bit early. I wanted to show Rachel that I was punctual.

She said that I can and told me the driver shall be there in five minutes. I gamed during those five minutes. I wore that belt the doctor had given me, went down, got into the car and left. Once I reach, I got down and saw that the whole class was downstairs. It turned out that everyone always came early and I was the only one who was always a bit late.

Aaron saw my hand and came to me with his homies followed by Rachel. He lied to them that Aaron had fought after everyone left and he broke my wrist. What a jerk he was! Rachel gave me a worried look. I told them it was a lie but nobody wanted to listen to me.

The lie spread fast and everyone knew about it and everyone talked about it. When it was time for class, everyone was still talking about it in class. The tutor overheard one of them. She asked Aaron if it was true and Aaron agreed foolishly. The tutor told him what he did was an act of imaturity.

Before Aaron could say anything, the tutor phoned his parents. Aaron's parents seemed so mad! They talked to Aaron through the tutor's phone and Aaron started crying. He told his parents it was all a lie. He expected them to believe him. His own plan backfired...........
