Love Life At School (Chapter Thirteen)

(Arron, Hebe and Selina POV)

Arron sat down at his place, blushing a little. Oh my god, he thought. I'm late! For once. In front of Hebe too. Oh my! While he tortured himself with horrible thoughts of what he thought Hebe was thinking, Hebe was thinking the other way round. He is so cute when he blush. He looks so embarrassed. Aww... he looks so adorable like a little boy, she thought. But she was not the only one thinking about him like that. Selina was too. But she was thinking about a different thing. Hhmmm.. why was he late? Was he meeting someone? Was it a girl? No, he can't. He can't do that to me. But.. he doesn't know I like him. Wait, but I like Wu Chun not him. Ohhh!! What's wrong with me. First I like Wu Chun, then Arron, then Jiro. (sigh) Who do I like??

(End of all POV)

Lessons end and Jiro asked Arron.

Jiro: Why were you late?

Arron: Was eating your food. The ones Wu Chun bought.

Jiro: What the! Eh, my food le. How can you eat without my permission? And... Wait.. now where's the food?

Arron: What? Oh, I left the food in the cafeteria. Why?

Jiro: Oh no.. My food. My precious food. How can you? I was going to save it for dinner and supper. But now its all gone.

Arron: But.. but.. Nevermind. Maybe the food is still there. Lets go and check.

Jiro: I hope its still there. Or you'll get it from me. Come on.

Hebe: (appeared) Where are you guys going?

Jiro: Looking for my food. Arron left it in the cafeteria table.

Hebe: Gross..

(Arron's POV)
Oh my god. Just now she thought I am a latecomer. Now she thinks I'm disgusting. Oh no. Next she might think I'm a pervert.
(End of POV)

Jiro: Come on Arron. Don't daydream. You can do that after we find my food. If not, you won't daydream, you'll get a nightmare. From me. (look at Arron angrily)

Hebe: Can I help?

Arron: Erm..

Jiro: Sure!

The three of them ran to the cafeteria in time to see a woman cleaner taking Jiro's food to clear away. Jiro went to the cleaner and told her the food was his.

Jiro: Excuse me. The food is mine.

Cleaner: Yours?

Jiro: Yes. My friend left it here.

Arron and Hebe: (came beside Jiro)

Arron and Hebe nodded and Arron said HE was the one who carelessly left Jiro's beloved food there and did not tell him. The cleaner looked at them suspiciously but let them take the food. Then they thanked her and left, carrying the food. Jiro told Arron that good thing the food was still there otherwise Arron would have gone to school the next day in blue black. Arron didn't say anything but just nodded. Hebe asked whether were they going home and they replied yes. She offered to let her chauffer drive them home but they declined because they didn't want to let anyone know about their family and that they were orphans. Hebe asked why but they were tight-lipped about it. Arron said his brother was sick and his sickness was contagious so Hebe better not follow as his brother would be outside the house and Hebe might contract the sickness. While Jiro said he was going to do something secret and no one must know about it so Hebe better not send them home. In the end she agreed since they were insistent. They went back to class to take their bags and went to the front gate of their school. There Hebe bade them goodbye when her chauffeur came. Jiro and Arron heaved a sigh of relief when she went.

Jiro: That was close.

Arron: Good thing we thought of something.

Jiro: Yeah. Anyway, lets go home.

They walked home together.

-------------------------
Calvin was in his car, his chauffeur driving. Calvin's mind was full of thoughts, of Hebe and Angela.

(Calvin's POV)
What am I to do? I can't love two people at the same time. Its too unfair. Ohh.. What to do? What to do?
(End of POV)

Calvin went home feeling uneasy and full of uncomfortable thoughts.

-------------------------
Angela was at home. She had rushed home from school, not able to face Calvin again that day after what happened.

(Angela's POV)
I wonder what he thought of it. I regret kissing him. He'd think that I am a loose girl and won't like me anymore. Oh no. I did a bad thing. I shouldn't have kissed him. Oh no. Oh no.
(End of POV)

She laid down on her bed and thought of these thoughts again and again. She also replayed the memory of her kissing Calvin again and again in her head. She sighed many times.

-------------------------
Ella was on her way home. She had told her chauffeur not to fetch her. She needed time to think about Wu Chun. And there was no time like the present. As she walked, she had to pass a road. Normally there were hardly any vehicles so she did not have look out. Unfortunately, as she crossed the road, she did not hear a big lorry coming. She walked on, oblivious to her surrouding. Suddenly, something pulled her. She fell down on the ground which surprisingly did not hurt her in any way. She blinked her eyes and saw Wu Chun on the ground below her. As they fell, she had heard something wizz by. Now she realized what had happened. The vehicle had been coming towards her but Wu Chun had come to her rescue by pulling her away from a monster vehicle. She looked at him and he looked at her.

(Wu Chun's POV)
She's beautiful. She's so light. She.. She..
(End of POV)

(Ella's POV)
My hero. Thank you. You're so...
(End of POV)

They looked into each other's eyes. Wu Chun's head went higher. Ella's head lowered. Their lips were just going to meet when... "HEY!"

They turned and saw Selina. She was in her car, starring at them with huge eyes. They looked at each other again and quickly scrambled up. Then they turned to Selina.

Ella: H..H..Hi..Hi.

Wu Chun: H..He...Hey..

Selina: What were you doing?

Ella: er..

Selina: You like each other don't you?

Wu Chun: (turn away)

Ella: (blush)

Selina: (angrily close her car window and told her chauffeur to drive off)

Wu Chun: Erm.. Ella?

Ella: (turn to Wu Chun) Yes? (in a soft voice)

Wu Chun: I.. I... like you..

Ella: (gasp)

Wu Chun: Canyoubemygirlfriend?IknowthelasttimeIsaidthatyoudumpmyheadinthetoiletbowlbutIreallymeanit.Pleasebemygirlfriend.

Ella: Huh? (blur)

Wu Chun: .....

Ella: (blush, understanding at last what he said) I... ok.

Wu Chun: (cannot believe his ears) Really?

Ella: ... Yeah..

Wu Chun: (hug Ella) I love you. (practically shouted)

Ella: Don't shout.

Wu Chun: Oh.. sorry. (looked at her and lowered his head)

And you know what happens...
