I've heard a lot of cases that a person might be inlove with people in the most tragic events. You see- stockholm syndrome is an example, where the victims of their kidnappers will fall inlove with them during the process, they say its something weird about your brain that you become independent with someone that you'll never fall inlove with in the normal circumstances. You might be thinking-- what is Math babbling about? i'm not saying im inlove but I am definitely having a crush with our knight and shining armor. I mean, he's cute and all-- but its his kind heart that really tugs my little fragile one.

Especially, when he's here right now beside me and treating my bleeding fricking knees-- and looking beautiful at the same time. He's been talking for 10 minutes straight and all I can hear is the birds chirping outside, the old love song in that radio and my crazy beating heart. I'm so afraid that he'll hear my heart too since its beating a bit too loudly--
404Please respect copyright.PENANAwHXJqTAc88
"Hello? I said what classes do you belong?" he asked, his face confused because he's been asking me questions and im here just staring at him like a scary stalker you read on books.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA1becVr3jcJ
"Uhm-- um, the first section, room 200." I said, i dont know why I'm a bit nervous talking to him but I started to feel the burning sensation on my cheeks again-- and no, im not nervous this time or scared, i feel like i'm a bit shy.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAtBA7UWpXxP
He smiled, "I like how you braid your hair-- its cool." he said, and then proceeded to put band- aid on my knees gently,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAPWwgEAuDOA
My skin feels these tiny tingles everytime he touched it. HE COMPLIMENTED BY LONG BRAIDS OMG. i need to calm down.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAAcd3xeWMdr
"Does it still hurt?" he asked, feeling a bit worried with my reaction.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAuuvQrx2GGP
NO IT DOESNT HURT, IN FACT I DONT FEEL THE PAIN AT ALL-- ALL I CAN FEEL IS HOW THOSE PRETTY FINGERS OF YOURS ARE JUST SO DELICATE WHEN TOUCHING MY KNEES.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAi86OtFG3C4
"A little bit." I lied, afcourse what am I gonna say to him? That im sensitive with his touch?
404Please respect copyright.PENANA0USBCdSd29
"Well, that'll get better soon." he said, reassuring me. "Rest here for a bit, before you go to your next class. Okay? I'll hand over your pass to your homeroom adviser later, so dont worry about it." He added,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAOaswRkRc15
I just nodded shyly. IM SUCH A SOFTIE or is this considered flirting? NO, MATH STOP--
404Please respect copyright.PENANAguEAhWmyC9
"Oh, and if you have any problems with that girl or someone whose bullying you. I'm always here to defend you." and then he smiled,
404Please respect copyright.PENANA0eIozZxOQe
AND I THOUGHT I JUST HAD A MINI HEART ATTACK WITH THAT STUPID SMILE OF HIS,
He's already walking out the room and I was worried for a second that I havent said my gratitude,
404Please respect copyright.PENANATvmSNtzC8q
"Uhm.. w-wait.." I said, WHY IS MY VOICE TREMBLING, WHY
404Please respect copyright.PENANAG4wXwz4pGB
He stopped and looked at me, I think hes in a hurry because classes already started,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAa51YvlndMe
"T-Thank you..." I said, looking away so that he can't see my burning cheeks,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAuGJtqPcuHg
"Your welcome, and btw its Jack." he said, giving me again that soft smile.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAZM7fqoR1nr
He turned around and went to the door.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA8MDuYO827c
Thank God! He didnt ask my name, I was worried that--
404Please respect copyright.PENANAZCWsUgip34
and then he came running back, his face a bit worried.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAfjg8CDKWnJ
"Uhm.. I havent asked your name." Jack said, "That's just rude of me." He added,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAaFaA1ClwAM
Oh, okay. I just realized from this point in my life that God has already forsaken me. It's a first time that I actually liked a boy, and now he's gonna laugh and just think im a regular nerd after hearing my stupid name.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA1vzCKk0jvF
He was patiently waiting for my answer, and just stood there waiting for me.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA9cJSSOHUQS
"Please dont laugh, my name kinda sucks so--
404Please respect copyright.PENANAMWYKFUnYpX
"Lol, no. I wont." He said, I can see that hes in a hurry and I'm here wasting his time and effort,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAN7PHBCCawm
"Its Math. Okay!!" I said, and I covered my face because I cant bear to see his next reaction.
404Please respect copyright.PENANApMAcSfUlZm
"Oh." He said,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAb6nPUTynbi
OKAY IM DEFINITELY GONNA DIE OLD AND SINGLE.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA7xo6rkhHc1
"Like the subject? Math?" he asked a bit curious.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA2cOHosLBtB
I just nodded.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAvCzFIHFGan
"Well, its a pretty name and I find it unique so-- you dont have to be embarrassed bout it." He said, when I look him in the eye. I can see that he's not even making fun of me. He actually thinks that its pretty?
404Please respect copyright.PENANA12ZlLyHK1V
I was confused.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA5nxiaFlGbH
"Well, bye Math-- I think im gonna be late for my next class. I'll see you after class, okay?" He said while smiling, and went out the door.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAhtf4diB4q0
And my heart just dropped.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAkUvgSkFQdg
No, God havent forsaken me. Not yet.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA6jsZlbsvLZ
And I collapsed on one of the nurse's beds, and I thought maybe.. just maybe, things arent not that bad.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA3fs1htR0U2
I didnt realize that I was too tired of the following events that I began to doze off and fell asleep with a smile in my face.
-------
I woke up and surprised that im in the nurse's office and thats when events came flashing back in my mind. Zeke yelling at me, me crying on that wet floor in the staff room, mean girls bullying me and meeting Jack... Jack?
404Please respect copyright.PENANAWrq3E8gPIJ
Wait, what time is it!? Jack said I should go back to my next class after I'm well rested. I checked the time, and I was so shock that my eyes widened.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAJz7fpLVQL1
I slept for 2 hours straight and I just missed 2 classes, no 3 because the last period just started. OH MY GOD. I only have one period pass, and I just missed fricking 3 periods. I'm so messed up.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAoaCyhuF5hI
The nurse went in and saw me, "Well, I guess-- you dont have an excuse to miss 3 periods? I can see the shocked look on your face." she said and sat down on her table, she's really pretty. She has these one of those model figures, slim bodies and a pretty face.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAuMf9RpKd7W
"Uhm.. what am I gonna do?" I asked, I was praying to God that I hope I wont get detention for this.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA9MHycGa2rP
"Ask your homeroom teacher then." she said while reading a model magazine,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAQi10929vtc
I immediately packed my stuff and arranged my hair and got out of the nurse's office.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAFMx8VJTHeK
When I arrived on the faculty room, I felt that slight tingle of pain on my knees. I cant even walk properly without flinching. I guess i'm actually badly bruised like Jack said.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAoCklQQYW21
Oh Jack! He said he'll be going to see me after class, and I'm not even on my class. He's gonna be dissapointed to me.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAKPSWjBiE3S
"Ms. Kurosawa? What is it?" Ms. Smith saw me first, as I stood in the Faculty room's front door and absent minded. I have to stop thinking too much information at once,
404Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y04SHFPYK
I explained her what happened, though I left out the details about bullying and just said that I fell on the stairs because of clumsiness and went to the nurse office, I had a pass for just one period but I actually missed 3 because I fell asleep.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAoQuhbSqV10
"Ms. Kurosawa, you know exactly what is gonna happen to you. Skipping class is a major offense without a reliable reason. So, here's your detention card and proceed to the next building." she said and then she looked at her phone, she doesnt really care about her students huh
404Please respect copyright.PENANAGZ3vzPglC2
"But--
404Please respect copyright.PENANAn9mixpspGe
"No buts. Out now." she said giving me a glare, I hate her.
---
404Please respect copyright.PENANAnfMbb8b7dq
It was a cold room and some old lady which I think is the detention adviser signed my card and made me proceed to this horrible room, she said I should clean it for 2 hours and she'll sign my card.
404Please respect copyright.PENANATwDeq0X4va
I can see that its an old library whose been in this school for ages. The shelves are dirty and the floor is just dampened with water thats been coming from the ceiling. Well, this is great.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA7cDlgRHpev
I took a dust feather and began cleaning, I keep coughing because of the heavy dust thats coming out in the bookshelves. Then, I heard some heavy footsteps nearby and I was just shooked by the thought of seeing a ghost inside since I'm all alone.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAZNsLkpPaNS
Well, its not impossible since this place is obviously somewhere along the lines of being 'Haunted'. This is where all those character in a horror movie end up dead somewhere.
404Please respect copyright.PENANApSdcta6bfw
I was obviously more creeped out on the thought of a real person going to murder me here so. I went and looked where the sounds came from. This old library is a maze and tall shelves are everywhere so it was hard for me to look where the source of the sound is,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAtWRLpPh6n0
and then I heard that small thuds again. I began to ran from where the sounds came from before its gonna be gone. I was so surprised that someone just popped beside the shelves that im standing, it was a black figure.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAkOXaA3Xc3O
And out of nowhere, I just screamed. AND THE FIGURE ALSO SCREAMED. IT WAS A BOY'S VOICE. I was so creeped out that I screamed again,
404Please respect copyright.PENANAp2rVZqFIvj
Then a flash of light blinded me, he was carrying a flashlight.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA4j3jmnw7bS
"KUROSAWA-- WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE AND POPPING OUT OF NOWHERE, YOU FREAK!" I was so surprised that I havent noticed that it was actually Zeke.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAh6jpXTFl18
God, I prefer to see a murderous monster than this devil.
404Please respect copyright.PENANAHXQ7Im7fhU
I can see his face that is burning red, he was so embarrassed because the way he also screamed. I cant help myself but to cover my mouth because I'm gonna start to burst out laughing. I can see that he's sweating all over and he's just a little scaredy cat, he's obviously looked more terrified than me
404Please respect copyright.PENANAe3ne5KqDJH
He's just a coward for scary stuff.
404Please respect copyright.PENANA5NXOWfvPWJ
