"I j-ju... just wanted t-t-to ask..." she seemed to be out of breath. Is it because of the slippery stairs that they needed to walk more carefully but it would save their breath and not the opposite?
"Look I already answered it," I said, "I won't say the same thing again."
"T-That's not-" she tried taking deep breaths.
She did mention that the girl was in some magazine. If she is in the first year then she must have worked hard to make her facial and etiquettes look good so I am assuming she didn't take much part in any physical activities. That might be the reason she was out of breath this easily.
"Allen!" ah, here she comes.
Iris was standing above the stairs. Her timing couldn't be any better. This might be the first time in my entire life that I wasn't mad at her.
"Who?" By the time Iris came all of them were back to their usual self. Pretty fast if I say so but who cares how fast they can recover.
"I came to get Allen. Who are you, people?" Iris said arrogantly. What's the point of trying to intimidate them? Like can't she just come down and take me away normally? Her only moment when I wasn't frustrated at her might have been ruined just now.
"We are talking to Allen right now so why don't you come later on?" one of the girl's lackeys said to Iris.
Oh, boy. I don't mean to criticize Iris but assuming how much ego she has, that kid just now worsened the situation.
*Twitch*
I couldn't see Iris' face completely but I could feel her face twitching. She is mad.
"Huh! What did you just say to me?!" she came running down.
"W-What are you going to...?" seeing the difference in Irir's speaking tone the kid seemed to back down a little. Not just him but all of them.
"I don't know what things you are being taught but from where I am, I have been told to respect someone older than you but I don't think I am being given enough respect here. So, I am just going to say this once," she said as she walked down the stairs.
"..." all of them were staring at Iris silently.
"Don't ever- Don't you dare ever speak to me like that. Not just me but to anyone and just pray that I don't find you doing this somewhere again. And if I did find you, believe me, you will be one hell of pain. Not just one but all of you." she said arrogantly.
That was some speech if I say but all that could have been prevented if she had come for me earlier.
"I just want to ask Allen a few things," the girl said, "It won't take much time."
"Oh, god...! You don't back down do you? Haven't you heard me? I am taking Allen back off right now," Iris said. She looked pretty irritated.
Well, if I am being honest here I think that girl is similar to Iris in some ways. Like not backing up when asked and trying to get things your way. The girl is just like Iris. Seeing them argue the only thing that I could think of is that the most difficult person to talk to is the one when the other person is similar to you.
That's the same situation Iris is in right now.
Seeing her get irritated seemed amusing to me. Since I have also suffered something like that because of her, I am going to wait for a few more moments and let her get a taste of her own medicine.
"I also told you, I just want to ask something, that's all...!" the girl exclaimed.
"Are you an idiot? Can't you see he also doesn't want to talk to you then why are you so obsessed with him all of a sudden?!" Iris also exclaimed.
It's like seeing a catfight. I guess it's true, when two girls fight it looks like a catfight.
"He was about to agree then you suddenly popped up!" the girl doesn't seem to back down but Iris was also the same as her.
"Look here, I am trying to get this inside your brain but it appears to be getting in but instantly it's getting out from the other...!" Iris said.
While they were having a fight almost the whole floor had gathered around us. That's the only thing I didn't want but thanks to both of them the crowd has surrounded us.
But if I look at this another I can just walk past the crowd because they aren't looking at me in particular at the moment. The junior and Iris were the center of attention right now.
"Hey, what's going on here...?"
"Iris and that idol from the first year are having a dispute."
"Really?!"
"Who are you betting on...?"
"Of course it's on Iris!"
"Iris? I don't think so."
I specifically told Iris to help me out using her authority when someone is trying to approach me but who would have thought that she wouldn't be of any help this much sooner.
While Iris and that idol girl were having their small dispute I used that opportunity to blend in the background and I slowly walked towards my classroom. Since Iris was already famous and that new girl also seems to be known by quite a few then no one even bothers to look in my direction.
Without any further thinking, I increased my pace and walked right past the crowd as I hid my face by lowering my head down. I just pushed a few and the way automatically was made.
...
I don't know what happened to Iris and that girl's fight but what I heard in the class is that one of the teachers came and stopped their fight. Also, before that happens one of them happened to slap the other. I wonder who did that.
"Please settle down! We will begin a new topic," our homeroom teacher entered the class with a thick book in her hand. Seeing it only one thought came to mind, when will that book's topic be all covered? And when it will be covered do we have to learn all that? Just thinking about it I remember that I do have a student life and have to study.
...
Without any hitch, the first half of the school happens to pass by like a blink of an eye. Also, that's a given that most of the time I was just making it look like I was getting it but it was flying right above my head.
As I was thinking about this I was just about to leave the classroom but someone stopped me by holding my shoulder. I turned around to see and saw a familiar figure. Well, that's a given that it would be a familiar face but apparently, this one hasn't talked to me for a while.
"What can I do for you...?" I asked.
It was Anna who came. What does she want now?
"Umm... is it okay if we talk in private...?" She looked nervous.
"Why?" I asked.
"Please... try to understand-" she seemed pretty tensed up.
"... Fine," I said.
As I was about to leave the classroom I felt multiple death glares at me but among them, I saw a nervous look on Selene's face. I wonder why that was?
...
We both walked down the hallway but where are going?
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"What...? Weren't you leading the way?" she seemed surprised.
"Why would I? Weren't you the one who wanted to talk privately?" I said.
"Argh...! Fine let's go to the library then," she said in frustration with a slightly anxious feeling hidden.
...
Well, it was given that I would be the center of attention if I was seen with Anna alone. It won't matter to me but what caught me off guard was that Anna was also not affected by these gazes.
We stepped inside the library. It was almost empty except a student was sitting holding a quite thick book beside the window.
Ignoring him we sat on the farthest seat from the entrance.
"What did you want to talk about?" I asked.
"UM- Ah..." she was hesitating.
"You know I don't have all day, right? Just spill it out." I tried pressing her to speak up. If I were to leave her here, who knows what kind of rumors she might spread again.
"D-Don't press me in saying that...!" she yelled at me.
"Shh. We are in a library, remember?" I told her.
"... sorry," she said.
"What is it really? Just say it," I said.
"I-I. You said yesterday that the rumors about you were spread by someone from this school-" she was about to finish her sentence but stopped in her tracks.
"Yes... I did say that." I agreed.
"Wh-Wha-" she couldn't say it out loud. Or she was trying to make up her mind whether to say it or not.
TO BE CONTINUED....
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
