Chapter 4 4

"Snow White!"

'Just said Snow, no White!'

I immediately turned and glared at the woman running towards my table where I was eating now.

"What happened last night? Quick, quick! Tell the story."

Nothing happened. It was three o'clock in the morning when we managed to go home. Since Allen went to the bar with me, he also drove me home. It's good that I was able to get in today even though I lacked sleep.

Kelly pulled my hand that was holding a spoon so I couldn't eat the rice and the dish full of it.

"Shh, don't mess up, Kell," I scolded him.

This girl was absent earlier, so now she's teasing me.

"What happened last night? Did something happen?" This question is loud and exciting.

Good thing I'm not eating in the cafeteria today. It's not like he's causing a scandal because he shouts and seems to be tickled at the mischief.

I'm in the garden with a table and chairs where students can hang out. This is where I thought of eating in the garden because there is often no one here especially at lunch time and there was no one here when I arrived.

Almost everyone prefers to eat in the cafeteria. Well, I don't want too many people there.

'I can't handle being an introvert.'

"It's okay! I don't know why he did what he did last night. He just took me home," I waited for him for a long time. Before I take the last thing in my spoon.

"You're a liar, girl." It snorts.

"I saw Allen earlier, he looks nice when he's awake, because of you. You're just numb."

I frowned because I didn't hear his last line before answering him.

"Of course the weather is good today," I promised simply.

I was drinking my water when it hit me so suddenly I fainted. My soot uniform also got wet. My soot bra can be seen a bit because our uniform is a white blouse and by chance I don't have a soot layering shirt.

'My Best friend is a real sir*head!'

"What the hell is that, Kell."

It just made me laugh when I looked at it. Really great!

"It's numb." It was whispered but I didn't understand.

"What?" I will ask.

"Nothing, nothing. I said.. Oh?" He stopped speaking as if he saw something because of the expression on his face.

"Speaking of.. your boyfriend is coming here," she said while waking up with a smile.

"Who's that?"

I received a bump from him again.

"Ouch!" I groaned because I literally fell down and the tip of my nose hit my lunch box. Fortunately, I had finished eating so it was empty.

I'm in trouble because the food in the cafeteria is expensive. I rubbed the bridge of my nose to reduce the pain.

"If you ask! Why do you have so many boyfriends?!" he asked flatly.

"I'm just kidding, you really hurt!" I'm snoring here.

"Are you okay?" The person behind me asked in a baritone voice. I looked at it while still rubbing the tip of my nose.

'It's Allen.'

★★

"O-It's okay," I answered while looking up at him.

He came closer to me and removed the hand that was holding my nose and replaced it with his hand. He gently squeezed my nose and caressed it from time to time. I do not know. But it's like a bar. I just let it do what it does.

'His hand is light.'

I noticed he was not alone. He has three other guys with him who as far as I know are his team mates.

I saw them yesterday, the three of them with Kelly and Jackson when we caught up. They just looked at me and Allen smiling. Kelly approached the three of them before talking.

I adjusted my seat and turned to face Allen. I looked up because he was leaning towards me. Its brown eyes stared at me.

I met his gaze even though it was a bit difficult because I was sitting and even though he was bent slightly he was still tall. To this day he is still caressing my nose.

"Feeling better now?" he asked as he removed his hand from my nose.

I nodded, "T-Thank you."

He smiled a little before ruffling my hair. It's like he's getting used to always messing with my hair but he also fixes it afterwards.

He looked down at my soot.

I quickly hugged myself to cover the future. I just remembered that my blouse got wet.

It's not that he looked at me rudely. I just know you a little inside me. He frowned when he raised his eyes to look directly into my eyes.

"What happened?" he asked while slowly unbuttoning his long sleeve polo shirt.

G*gi? What is he doing? I'm going to do a live show right in front of me. I looked away from him and turned to Kelly before I answered him.

"N-Just spilled water."

"Wear this."

I immediately looked back at him when he placed his white long sleeve polo on my shoulder.

"A-Ah, there's no need. It will dry quickly." I was about to take off his long sleeve polo but I hadn't completely taken it off when he spoke.

"Wear it," he said with emphasis as if if I didn't wear it he would lose it.

I slowly nodded and just put on his long sleeve polo shirt. I stood up to put it on better. I noticed that his polo was too big for me. Because I'm small I look like I don't have soot bottoms.

I adjusted the end of the long sleeve because it was too long for me and I couldn't see my hands. I fixed the soot for a while before turning to look at him. He was wearing a white oversize white t-shirt.

'It's good.'

"Thank you," I said as our eyes met again. He just nodded.

I sat down again and fixed my lunch box. I could feel Allen's eyes watching what I was doing. He just stood by my side with his hands in both his pockets.

I wanted to ask him why they were here but I chose to remain silent. Maybe they are here to hang out. It's just that Kelly and I are here too.

'I don't want to add to my embarrassment last night to him.'

★★★

After I fix the lunch box. I stood up. I walked awkwardly, I felt him following me. I approached Kelly who still hasn't finished talking with her three friends.

"Kelly, I went in first, huh?"

"Wait.. wait. I'm with you."

I just nodded to him before I turned to Allen.

"I-I'm in," I said shyly. I don't know why I said goodbye to him. Maybe it was just out of respect because he lent me his polo shirt.

I read in his look that he didn't want to let me go yet but he didn't say anything and just nodded.

I simply pinched my palm because of the feeling. Why do I want him to stop me? Làngya!

After Kelly said goodbye to her three friends, we started walking.

I feel Allen's gaze behind me. I looked at it for a moment, I saw his serious look at me. He nodded as if saying 'Alright' so I continued walking.

So Kelly and I will go first because Allen is not our classmate. His classroom is in the other building. With it is Jackson who is Kelly's boyfriend.

While walking in the hallway there weren't many students outside. But even so, some people still looked at us, especially me.

I am wearing the polo shirt of the grandson of the school owner, Allen. Then it has a name printed across the chest that I couldn't cover with my hair because it was in a ponytail.

Our uniform is a black skirt and blouse for girls. Long sleeve polo shirt for men and black jeans.

The blouse and polo shirt have names with the last name printed across the left chest. It is said that even without an I.D, a student's name will be known immediately.

Kelly and I's classroom is only on the first floor, so the stairs are not a problem for us unlike others. We were almost in the classroom when Kelly spoke.

"I'm just Cr, girl," he said.

"I'll go with you?" I ask here.

"Don't stop, don't stop. It's my Keri boom boom," he said gently. I just nodded and continued walking when it turned to cr.

When he got to the opposite side of the classroom. I took a deep breath before exhaling. I know that my classmates will also look at me because of my soot.

If earlier it was okay because I was with Kelly. Now, I'm a little nervous because I'm going inside alone.

'Introvert feels.'

★★★★

When I finally entered. I'm right. I can feel their eyes even when I'm bent down. I only looked at my feet as I walked to my seat.

I hope Kelly just took my pocket again like what happened at the basketball gym. I can bring out my shameless side.

"Is it true that Snow is Allen's girlfriend?" I heard one of my classmates ask as I walked to my seat.

"Yes. They're good, and look at him wearing Allen's uniform."

"Yes! And one more thing, what happened in the gym where he was cheering for Allen. It's obvious they are."

"I don't want to, but I'll send Allen to Snow."

"That's why Snow will keep quiet, her boyfriend is an Allen."

"Isn't there something called their relationship? What is that? What is it? Private but not secret? I feel like that because those close to them know that they are both, the public just doesn't know. Right, right. That's right. that's it!"

I just ignored their conversation. I just continued walking and sat in my seat. If they can talk it's like they don't see me.

When I finally sat down, I looked up and ran into four of my female classmates who were looking at me. Our teacher is not here yet, that's why they are not in their respective places.

They are talking about me and Allen. I bent down again and put my lunch box back inside the bag.

"Well, how is Tanya?"

Everyone was surprised when there was a loud sound that sounded like he was hitting the table. That's why I also looked up.

'Alyssa Milari.'

It stood up like a flame before turning its gaze to the four women who were talking to each other.

"Don't mention that girl's name! She didn't contribute anything! Especially Allen!" it's angry.

"If you ask me..." His eyes turned to me. Before looking back at the four girls.

".. I prefer Snow to Allen and at least we saw some change in that person."

"Everyone knows that Allen used to be a broken head. No matter who the enemy was, the soot uniform was always a mess, he was always angry and unruly. He didn't stop anyone. Students or professors. As long as he got angry, he would throw him out of the school. it's like garbage. But since Snow started studying here.."

It turned to me again.

"Allen changed and we all noticed!"

I was surprised and slightly parted of my lips at what he said. I couldn't find the Allen he was describing. How could that person have that attitude? He was very gentlemanly when he came to me and I don't hear anything that he had a fight with or that he had a fight with except now.

And then something new happened because of me? I only get to spend time with Allen.

'How about me?'
