Chapter 9

Andrea 

I just finished taking a bath. I feel so good and refreshed after the shower. I dressed myself before coming down to have my dinner.

I just wear my usual thing. An oversized shirt and a pajama. This is how I dressed when I'm just in our house.

I don't need to wear a dress or a gown or any fancy clothes if I'm just going to stay at my room. Why would I? tch. 

"Come here and eat." Mama said. 

She's preparing the food at the table. I was right on time when I went down. Our dinner is ready. I sat down next to my youngest brother. 

"What's for dinner?" I asked. 

"What do you see?" My youngest brother imitated my answer to him the other day. 

"Tss." 

We have already started eating dinner after my mom served the food. As usual, me and my brothers, we teased each other while we're eating. That's our usual thing every time that we're together. That's our bonding. 

Each one of us never lose to each other. We don't hate to lose on a battle but we just don't want to if we can still fight.

What the hell am I saying? I'm spouting nonsense, right? I must be very hungry. 

"How's school?" Mom asked as we ate. 

The interrogation will begin again. That's what they do if they want to stop us from fighting. They're interrogating us. About school and etc. 

"It's okay, it's a bit difficult but I can still handle it." Andrei replied. 

"You have to cope, don't give up, okay? Your older siblings have already passed that so you can pass that too. Hmm?" Mom's reminder. He just nodded as response. 

"How about you, Andrea?" Mama asked me. 

"Just fine." My answer. 

"Tsk tsk tsk. Whenever we asked you a question, your answer is always short." Andrei's said.

Here he goes again. He keeps on noticing things again. Even the things he shouldn't notice, he still keep on doing it. 

My answer is always short because that's all I have to say. They asked how was the school so I replied fine. They did not say that i have to explain. 

"I have a question." Andrei suddenly said after we ate. 

"What is it, baby?" Mom asked. 

"Why do people who make trouble, they are still the ones who get angry?" 

"There are people who really don't want us to be happy so they harass and insult us." Andrew replied. 

"The sad thing is that we are not affected so they are getting mad." I added. "Why? Is someone bothering you?" 

"Not to me, to my classmate." 

"If I know that someone is bothering or hurting you, they will recognize who I really am." I said. 

My brother and I are always teasing each other but I love this man. When they hit him, bother, or hurt him, I will be the one to fight to them. 

I never hurt my brother but they will be the one who hurt him? No way in hell I will let them do that to my brother. 

"I'm going to school." I said. 

"Take care, Andeng!" Mama shouted from the kitchen. 

I got on my motorbike and drove to school. 

~ School ~ 

I maybe unlucky today. This jerk is the first person I saw when I entered the school. This is a bad sign. A bad luck is waiting for me. 

"Good morning, temper tantrum." he greeted me and accompanied me in walking. 

"My morning is good not until I saw you."

"You really have a bad attitude towards me. You're always mean to me." he even acted as if he's hurt. 

"Take your hand off my shoulder. I'll cut it off." I warned him when he puts his hand on my shoulder.  

He quickly removed it and hid it behind him. 

"I can be so brutal than that so be careful on what you're doing." 

We walked to our room together. There are only a few students here because it is still early. Alexa and her friends are all here too. The five of them. Even Ash is already here. 

"Good morning, moonlight." Ash greeted me. 

"Good morning, Andrea!" Lexa and Raia greeted me. 

"Morning." I greet back. 

"When I greet you, you don't greet me back. But if they're the one who greet you, you greet them back, tsh." Jake whispered to me before sitting down in his chair. Tss. 

I don't care about you. You're just ruining my day. 

"Sit here first. Our teacher isn't here yet." Lexa said making me sit in front of them. 

Blake arranged the chair in front of them so that I could face them and talk to them properly. Jake and Ash stood on both side of me as I sat down. They pulled their benches closer to our seat. 

"Why are you here?" I ask them. 

"Can't we join you?" Jake asked sourly. 

Tss. 

"Andrea, have you been in a relationship?" Raia asked.

Why would she ask? Why does she want to know about my life? Love life, I guess to be exact.  

"Not yet." Jake answered. 

A nosy has been added. In the past, it was just a stair. Now as sensual is  nosy as well. Tss. 

"Really, moonlight?" Ash asked in astonishment. 

"Hmm." My answer. 

"Why?" Tristan asked. 

As usual they didn't let me answer. They answer it for me as if they really know the reason. 

"It's obvious, no one wants to court her." Alistair answered. 

Earlier, Jake answered the question for me. Now, it's Alistair. They are not the ones being asked but they are the one answering the questions.

You're right." Jake said. 

"That's fine. Unlike you, you're kissing different women every day." I tease Alistair. 

"It's just for fun. Unlike you, you've been lonely all your life." He teased me back. 

"I'm not lonely, I have my family." My answer. "And I'd rather be alone than play with others feeling." 

"They're playing along. What can I do?" 

"The others want it seriously but what can they do if you don't want to?" I stopped speaking for a moment. "Those are women, not barbie so don't play with them. Don't be gay." 

His head immediately heated up at what I said. 

"What? Gay ?! Hey!" 

He looks like he's going to explode in anger now. Now I know. 

"Okay, STOP, TIME OUT!" Tristan weaned us. 

"Do you want me to kiss you to prove to you that I'm not a gay?" He asked in annoyance. 

I just laughed at him. This crazy don't know when to stop.
