Chapter 5 5

"What's up, people!" Kelly entered as if she was happy, but that immediately changed to a frown when she noticed the tension in the classroom and Alyssa standing.

"What's up?" no one answered his question so he walked towards me.

"Why does your face look like that?" He sat next to me exactly where his seat was.

I didn't answer him. I'm just quiet because my brain hasn't processed what I heard yet.

"Who fought with my Baby Snow?!" I was startled when he suddenly stood up and asked that angrily. I quickly pulled his arm to make him sit back in his seat.

"Sirà! No one fought with me, I was just thinking about something."

"The truth? We'll report it to Allen, who's fast?!" it asked again.

Because he mentioned Allen, what Alyssa said came to my mind again. I turned to him.

"Did Allen used to b-bàsagulero?" I will ask.

His eyes widened and he couldn't believe my question. He faked a cough before answering my question.

"O-Yes, p-but that was before. The past is the past, isn't it. Allen is different now. I won't allow you and Allen to get close if that one is still in trouble," he stammered. "W-why? W-don't you like men with a past like his?" it adds more.

I smiled at him before answering him.

"You said the past is the past, didn't you? Also, there is no case against me if he was like that before. I'm sure he could be like that because there was a reason. There is a story in his life that is not most people know."

He gave me a sweet smile before wiping his eyes and cheeks with no tears so I laughed softly.

"I thought you'd run out of chickens."

I didn't answer what he said. I laughed weakly again.

There is absolutely no case for me if Allen's past is like that. I will not just judge him just because of that. I don't know his life story so I have no right to judge him.

But I have one more thought. The name of the girl that Alyssa doesn't want to mention is familiar. I think I've heard that name before.

My thoughts were interrupted when a teacher entered, so I decided to listen.

When the last class was over. I quickly arranged my things after turning to Kelly who had also finished arranging her things and we left the classroom together.

I bent down while looking at my sooted polo shirt of Allen. I'm fixing it because I haven't taken it off before even though my blouse is dry.

I stopped walking and Kelly moaned softly as she pinched my arm. I hated looking at it. I was seen doing something just pinching myself.

"Why is that?"

It smelled something so I immediately followed. I quickly hid behind him when I saw Allen leaning against the wall not far from us, along with those he was with earlier and Jackson.

Lètche! He's still wearing his polo shirt, which is now a little tangled because of a classmate of mine earlier.

Because we did groupings and then I had a gay classmate who felt close, so according to Allen, it looks like your polo shirt keeps rubbing because it smells so good.

It smells really good but I don't know how much because I don't smell it like he does.

We will pass by Allen's place because that is the only way to get out of the building. Why are they here? Mud! He might think I'm enjoying wearing his polo shirt.

I was about to take off Allen's polo when Kelly suddenly called Jackson so we got the attention of the five of them.

"Babe!" This g*ga still waved.

I immediately turned around when I saw Allen's confused look. Until now I'm still behind Kelly, Kelly is a bit taller than me but even so I know she can still see me from behind her.

★★

I quickly dropped my bag on the floor. I unbutton Allen's long sleeve polo shirt one by one. It was still very difficult because my hands were shaking while removing it.

I was startled when someone grabbed my left elbow. I immediately looked to see who it was. Allen's face was serious.

It's a shame, oh! I didn't even realize that they were approaching us. I'm ashamed to smile this sparingly.

"What are you doing?" this is a surprising question. He looked over my whole body.

I faced it. "Sorry, I didn't mean to mess up your polo shirt, I swear." I raised my right hand as if swearing. He looked at me with a frown.

Wait! I'm actually going to wash it before giving it back to him, because I can't just give it back to him casually. That's a shame, isn't it? And then when I wash it, it gets tangled too. I slapped my forehead when I thought about that.

"Hey.." I closed my eyes when he stroked my forehead. "Don't hurt yourself. It's okay," he said.

I smiled a little. I didn't hit my forehead that hard, eh.

"Ehem! Lovebirds go home, let's go."

We both looked at the person who spoke. It was one of the three earlier that Allen was with. He was smiling at Allen and me. I felt ashamed because of what he said. In front of them we always see the two of us like this.

"Shhh!" Allen just said.

The man laughed before turning to me. "Hi, it's Jasper." He held out his hand. I glanced at Allen for a moment before smiling modestly and reaching for your hand whose name was Jasper.

"S-Snow."

"Yes, Allen's girlfriend, right?" it promises a big smile.

Before I could even speak, Allen quickly separated Jasper's and my hands.

"Hands off!" he said sternly looking at his friend seriously.

"Easy, dude." Jasper said laughing. "Just introducing myself. Yes, I know your PR." Still laughing it added.

PR? What?'

"PR?" I suddenly asked Jasper, as I looked like I was longing for an answer.

"Property," he quickly answered my question. He took a few steps back and smiled hesitantly when Allen looked at him intently. That's why I smiled awkwardly.

'Mud! Everyone really thought I was Allen's girlfriend.'

★★★

I touched Allen so his eyes turned to me.

"I'll just replace it tomorrow," I said, referring to his polo shirt. He just nodded. It's not even màtalím if its eyes look.

I finally took off the polo he lent me. Before hanging on my left hand. He picked up my bag that was on the floor before handing it to me. I weakly thanked him.

I grabbed my cellphone from my skirt pocket and checked the time. It's only 3:30 so you can still walk home. We actually got home at 5 pm, but it was just early today because the teachers had a meeting.

I need to start walking because it looks like I'll be walking home alone today because Kelly and Jackson might still have a date. And also so that I don't get caught in the dark just in case.

My eyes searched for Kelly. He was talking to Jackson who was a few steps away from where he and Allen were. I didn't notice that it was no longer behind me.

"Ahm... I'll go first," I informed Allen who had been watching me for a while.

I glanced at the man next to him, Jasper. He smiled at me so I just returned it with a small smile.

Allen didn't answer so I started to walk towards Kelly, but I was only able to take two steps when someone grabbed my right elbow to stop me from walking.

"I will accompany you," said Allen.

"Huh? Ah, never mind. I'm walking."

He frowned because of what I said. So I added to what I said.

"I'm just walking home. Well, it doesn't look like you're walking far so don't do it." I smiled awkwardly. His forehead furrowed even more and he looked a little confused.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

'How is this?'

"Kelly because when he takes me home, we just walk, he just walks with me, we don't ride in their car," I explained to him one after the other.

It nodded. "Then let's walk too," he said.

I was a little surprised by what Jasper next to him said. He coughed before speaking.

"When did you ever bother to walk far, dude?" asked Jasper. The teasing was obvious in his voice.

Allen turned to him and looked at him seriously. It's like they're talking with their eyes. Allen reached for his car keys. The man immediately took it as if he understood what Allen was conveying.

They don't really open their lips but they understand each other. Men are really different.

Jasper raised both of his hands as if to surrender before patting Allen lightly on the arm. What's that?

"Enjoy your date, bro," he said, I followed him as he walked towards Kelly.

'What?!'

"Let's go," said Allen so I turned my gaze to him again.

"S-Alright." I was about to start walking when he stopped me.

"Your bag. I will carry that."

I was about to calm down when he grabbed the straps of my bag before pulling me away. He lifted it with his left hand while slung his bag over one shoulder.

He took his polo shirt hanging from my left hand before simply putting it inside my bag. He grabbed my left hand and wrapped it in his.

'It's him again.'
