FOUR PILLARS

Chapter 4: Living Hell

A week passed without him realizing. He was too keen on catching up making him felt like the the time flies too fast. All he did was studying so he doesn't even remember what happened during his first week at school. There were some jabs thrown to him and probably a few insults here and there but his eyes were too busy focusing on his books to even look at people. Now that he practically remembered and understand all of his textbooks, he can finally breath. Thank the god for internet to be honest so cheers to all the sleepless night filled with online classes and YouTube videos.

He probably look half-dead today. With his messy hair and dark eyebag, he definitely looks like a hobo. He just wants to go home right now. The teachers gave him quizzes today to see if he already got the basics for his classes and thankfully he passed with flying colors so right now he just wants to be in bed and get his a week worth of sleep today.

Life is not that simple for him. Why the fuck it is not simple for him? All he wants is sleep and 2 years of peaceful education but everything above that takes care of his fates must be some kind of deity that have the mischief of Loki because why the fuck after a week at school the Heathers decides to continue tormenting him? He swore the Heathers were at least decent last week but suddenly during this peaceful Monday, in a bustling cafeteria, they decided to corner him.

Well if the world wants to make his life hard then fuck it right? Do or die. Go big or go home.

"So the commoner decided to dress like how he should," he heard one of them said. Who was it again? Pam or Cathy he doesn't remember the name. The names are nothing alike but who is he to care? He still doesn't take his eyes off from his tray.

"He looks like a fucking homeless person. Do you think his family can afford a house?" he swears to god he won't raise his hand to anyone. He can do it right now. Who gives a fuck about them being female? Not him certainly as he is a feminist and he sure as fuck believes girl should be treated equally.

He inhales deeply, whatever happens he doesn't care. He wants to eat and he will eat for all he care.

With the most patience he can muster at the moment he said,"Can you guys kindly fuck off? I want to eat right now. Not everyone can live eating idiocy and drinking fancy arrogance like you guys,".

"Woaaahh the bunny could talk. I thought he will forever lives in the hole without caring about anyone," Cherry pushed his shoulder. He moved slightly to the back as he is not prepared for that.

"Well at least this bunny doesn't disturb anyone who is prettier or have decent manner than him," he smirks, watching the girls gasped in shock.

He can see their anger clearly now. Oh god, rich people and their inferiority complex.

"You thought you are better? Your parents might have to sell your house to afford any of the things we wear," he looks at the girl's nametag. Turns out her name is Chantara. His guess is not that far off, Cathy and Chantara are similar right? Whatever he does not care.

"At least I can afford dignity and actual manners. You have expensive things and attitude so I think I win," he replied. "Well I am Win, so please remember that,"

"You should remember who you are. Hell I think your parents will sell you if they wanted to," Cherry said.

He sees red, this bitch really is pushing his button, "What the fuck you said?".

"I think your parents will sell your body if they have to in order to survive," she added.

That's that he guessed. He can take it if they want to mess with him but thinking his parents are nothing and so low like those bastards in the streets, the girl is just asking for it. He took the water from his tray, might as well make it as dramatic as it can right? Cherry should thank her gods or singular god, whatever she believes in, that he decided to have water that day.

First of all he wanted to laugh but he needs to keep his face straight while pouring the water on top of her head. Her reaction was priceless. That might be the ugliest face he ever saw in his life.

"Maybe you should think twice before make those kind of assumptions about my family," he smiled sweetly before going to the cafeteria's basin, throwing his lunch because he doesn't feel like eating anymore.

He knows this is not the end. Also,his eardrums are going to burst if he is still in the canteen so he ran. The bitches really make him become more fit if this kind of occurrences continue. After running to the class, he saw the class is still empty and the recess still got 10 minutes left so he make his way to the rooftop. The rooftop where he discovered during first day of school.

He saw the door is slightly ajar, meaning someone is already there. He pushed the door, curious about who will be there. He used to study there during recess last week so he knows no one came up there so he can't help but to feel curious.

Slowly he arrange his steps, to not make any sound. He kinda succeed for a few steps until the 11th steps he heard someone's voice.

"Oi. What are you doing like a creep?" A deep voice said.

He dares not to turn around,"What my business is nothing to do with you," he said.

"Well it's my business if you suddenly jump from up here isn't it? I might be convicted of murder if you jump from up here," the voice owner scoffed.

He takes a deep breath before deciding to turn around.

"Well I am for sure not here to commit suicide so please rest assure," he can clearly see now, the voice owner. The deep voice belongs to his saviour, the man who caught him last week.

The man's eyes widen, "Oh it's just you,".

"What do you mean just me? And why are you here? I never saw you up here before," Win bombarded the man with questions, he just doesn't understand why the man is up here.

"I just feel like I want to skip class today so shut up," the man coldly replied. His stare sends shivers down Win's spine. The man feels different from last week but his intimidating aura is still there. He feels more stuck-up than last week.

"Nevermind then. I will just go now," Win feels like he doesn't want to make his life any harder than it is, he knows he doesn't want to pick more fight with another spoiled rich kid.

The man keeps staring at him. Win can feel the eyes following his steps.

"Anyway I like what you did at the cafeteria. I think it was entertaining," the man called out. His voice louder as he their distance grows larger.

Win smiles a little, finding it a little bit funny, "Thanks for your feedback! Really appreciate it," Win shouted. How irony, he is laughing about that now, finding it funny, but he knows deep down that this is the start of his personal hell. He knows today will be the last day of his peaceful life.

Notes:-

That's it for today! Hahahha my holiday started this week and I want to try writing more so yeah I hope you enjoy it. So basically this book is actually more based on a novel I read before titled Tunas. It was a really good novel about private high school and I like it a lot so this is more like the novel than it is based on Hana Yori Dango. If you can understand Malay you really should give the book a try though it is hard to find that book nowadays.

Oh if you don't understand, Win find it offensive that Cherry said his parents are willing to sell his body so that's why he cannot take it anymore. I have nothing against prostitutes but people think their works are disgusting so that's why I put it here but I personally think it shouldn't be insulting because it's a work so shut up. It's disgusting if they are being sold like human trafficking so that's the thing I am really against. Enough babbling, I hope you like this chapter. I wrote it late at night so my writing will be worse or better I won't know for sure hahaha
