Comeuppance

Chapter 5 - The Transferee

"Huhuhuhu I wonder how the transferee is doing right now!!!"

I got irritated by her voice. She's too concerned about the transferee when we just met only awhile ago.

"I feel really really guilty huhuhu."she was crying since awhile ago but now it upgraded, she's now yelling as well.

"What are you feeling guilty for? Really really stupid, can't you just shut up?"

I caught the scent of the two eggs heading towards my condominium.

"Yow girls."

"Hello."

I just narrowed my eyes at them and looked at Jahzyra who has been crying nonstop since awhile ago, what the f**k is wrong with her.

"This lesbian's really really snob." I just gave him a sullen look. Who is he calling lesbian huh?

What happened? Why is Mayi crying?" Kipween asked.

I just took my phone and opened my social media accounts. "Dunno" I answered his question.

When I opened my phone, notifications are flooding then when I opened my accounts, it was flooded with new rumors, headlines, lies, things that are going round then I suddenly remembered. "Oh by the way Kip, how are you related to that transferee in my class?"

"She's my friend."

"Ah." I nodded and I also wonder how is she related to Eli?

"Why?"

"How many days did you ignore and never checked your social media accounts that you aren't updated about the latest news and headlines in the school?" I saw Kipween took his phone from his pocket and Devon sat down on the couch, Kipween is about to open his phone while Jahzyra still is crying and argh, it's annoying the hell outta me. 

"You're the only ones who can relate about your topic. There's a transferee? Then so what? She getting the spotlight? She pretty then?" I just rolled my eyes at Devon, he speaks nothing but straight nonsense.

Jahzyra stopped crying so loud but she's still sobbing. I looked at her and her nose turned so red, that always happens ever since we were a little younger, she never changed.

"Oh, hahaha, she looks like a clown because of her nose. But what happened to you Mayi?" Devon asked her.

But after asking that, she once again cried out so loud. What is happening with her? Ugh. Is this one of the disadvantages of being a writer? You become so senti to the point that even at the slightest things and things you never did , you feel guilty. (Senti = sentimental)

Kipween rushed outside, I'm sure by now he knows what happened awhile ago. Kipween, is she really just a friend pfft. Bruh, you're too obvious.

"Oi, where are you going?!" Devon asked who's now checking his phone as well.

"Is this the transferee you were talking about? Why is her face sensored? Witwew, a one on one battle with Eli pfft that jerk even at fighting girls never holds back, wah this girl's something else, having to fight with Eli." I just ignored all of those things he said.

I lied down on the mattress where Jahzyra on the other side of the mattress is crying. She's really weird, everyone around me is weird, why did I even agree to be surrounded by these fuckers ugh, then I proceeded to start my games.

Koukishin's Point of View

I am really thankful that I barely got wounded during the fight awhile ago. But I can still feel the touch of hell on my body, I broke a lot of bones although I barely have wounds.

Huhuhuhu this is too painful. I even caught a cold and at the same time, I have hard coughs. I feel so cold that even this thick comforter doesn't feel enough. My knee just got better but the exchange is even worse, almost every part of my body is aching now. I feel like I wouldn't even survive this night.

I can't even believe I really won that fight. But there was something really off, he suddenly lost his focus out of nowhere I guess? But I really don't know wjat's running on that guy's mind, he seem a little weird and exotic.

Flashback..

I got knocked off the ground and I couldn't even stand anymore because the pain.. my body feels so heavy.. why.. isn't he holding back.. I'm a girl... But good thing he didn't use any weapons, I was using one but I don't know how to use it so it was still one-sided no matter what.

"Is that all you can do, Vanidestin?"

I noticed how his expression changed and his sudden pause for a minute so I felt the urge to throw my heavy wedge shoes on his face and before he could even recover from the surprise, I slid my leg, blocking him, making him fall and I instantly pointed the knife above his shoulder and the other one on his waist before he can even stand again. Then after that he seemed floating and his expression didn't return back to normal.

End of flashback..

Haysttt. Even at how many angles I've tried to look at it, I just really feel like he lost the will to fight but I don't understand, why? Just why? I mean I'm not saying I'm looking for more body aches but it's just that.. it was so weird and really frustrating for me.

It was really frustrating coz I feel like he was compassionate and felt mercy towards me and so he gave way and that's even a pain that's a lot painful than these injuries. It's really frustrating, it feels so frustrating to be so weak and I just felt my tears rolling down my cheeks.

That's what it means to be here. And I clearly don't belong. He didn't even use any weapons but it was still one-sided while me, I was using two knives. TWO and still I had no chances against him. Why did I even ugh.. that was the consequence.

I was just lying down on the sofa. I am feeling so cold. I feel like I'm about to get sick or maybe it's just because I feel so weak because of the broken bones. I can't even move otherwise I feel like hell is hugging me because it's really painful.

I feel so weak, I don't think I can make it through this night. I feel like I'm really about to die.

Jahzyra's Point of View

I feel really really guilty!!! I know that what happened earlier was my fault. She got really scared that she might not be able to return in the human world. Hhuhuhu she got really scared. I was just joking or kidding but actually, I just really wanted to confirm if my suspicion about her being a mere human is true. I never expected her to react like that, I didn't know I am really sorry!!! 

I know that it's the reason why she seemed so out of her mind awhile ago, it might be the reasom why she wasn't able to prepare for the P.E. Class and even got to fight with Eli as her consequence and the jerk never held back and he wasn't even trying hard in that fight but Eli huhuhu he never run from any fight huhuhu. I feel so bad for her. I feel so bad for Analyseana.

This is really my fault.

After that final position, there were still a lot of openings and still a lot of chances for Elimiere to recover but thank God, he got distracted after hearing the word Vanidestin otherwise, I don't know if Analyseana can even survive if he still fought back after that.

He's that guy who's very strong, he never runs from any fights no matter who the opponent is, he's even the strongest or one of the strongest in this our batch, the Intermediates but if he's against his cousins, sisters or any sibling or any relative, that's when he gives ways, he never fights his relatives, he doesn't like hurting his family

Awhile ago, I'm sure he was still about to attack, no doubt he would've killed her at that because those kinds of traps are just something basic especially for Elimiere and it was even so easy to counter. I'm sure he realized that he has no cousin named Analyseana, maybe she has just the same surname but they stayed in that position for pretty while and took him long to realize and it's a good thing coz the bell rang and the fight ended with Vanidestin winning. 

But the most painful part is when the battle ended and Analyseana just walked out, was about to go home, she was having a hard time walking and she was barefooted and no one even offered to help, she forgot her shoes and her shoes is with me right now, even I don't have the guts to help her because I knew it was my fault.

What did I do? What kind of person am I for doing that? I was too cruel. Huhuhu, up until now, I have no guts to even calm down, I am too guilty of what happened earlier.

I am so selfish! I didn't know she'd really get scared like that but still! I didn't know she was really a mere human, it was just the clues she showed, it was.. she's too suspicious.

I was weirded out coz I couldn't feel any pressure from her and she was so shocked looking at the clock and she even forgot her nam which means it was possible that she forgot it because it wasn't her real name. Ugh Kip, why didn't you teach her well?

I wanted to read her mind but we, dragons' descendants cannot do that unless we meet the requirements which is eye to eye contact.

She's really interesting. I took my phone and watched the trending piggyback ride of her and Kipween and even when she went out of his car, her face is censored but I can tell that it's her and even when Kipween and Your Sovereignty stopped Cilia from harming her.

But what was wrong with her awhile ago? She looked entirely sick, it seemed as if she had motion sickness but only dragons' descendants have that here.

If you're a dragon's descendant, you're expected to be really strong especially if you really know how to control your magic. But Analyseana's case is different, she's just a mere human.

Mere humans can have motion sickness though. I sobbed and wiped my nose. I already got home but I am still crying, I just can't seem to forgive myself, my conscience is bothering me too much.

I took a tissue and wiped my nose and face, I just really can't believe I was that cruel. I can't help but cry like this.

I feel like I won't get any sleep tonight at all. My phone suddenly beeped. I took and saw a message notification.

It's a message from Kip.

From: Kipween

Mayi, are you awake? If you are, please reply this message.

I frowned, I wonder what will make him ask me this but if it's Kipween, of course we can expect that it's some serious matter. He's the least asshole among the three of them after all.

I typed a reply.

To: Kipween

Yes, I am. Why?

And then I sent it.

After a few seconds, I don't think it even reached one minute, my phone beeped again and the ,essage is still from him and so I instantly opened it.

From: Kipween

Can you help me? I'll pay you anything. If only, we boys have enchantment magic, then I wouldn't be bothering you but I really need your healing magic.

My whole body suddenly got active and alive. Ahhhhh yes, this is my chance to sleep well tonight. I'm sure he's going to need this for Vanidestin. And I am more than just willing.

To: Kipween

Tell me the location.

I sent it. And then, instantly, a reply arrived.

From: Kipween

I'm in the lobby of your building.

I stood up after reading that. I washed my face of course because my nose really turned red, huhu I suddenly remembered that motherfucker Devon's chaff about my nose. I wiped my face with a towel and then grabbed my bag and went outside.

After taking the elevator, it wasn't so long til I arrived in the lobby and then there I saw him sitting on the sofa, looking so worried and stressed. He instantly stood up and looked at my direction. Of course, he can easily sense.

"Let's go, so where does Analyseana live anyway?" I asked while we started walking.

"I let her stay in my condominium. She doesn't have any places to stay yet, you know club meeting. You never fail to amuse me, I didn't say a word about her but you knew and by the way, what were you crying for? It's been awhile since you've doing so and it's a little troubling."

Should I tell him it's my fault? He might get mad. I'm sure he will be because Analyseana is not a friend to him. It's totally obvious. I know them very well, if they act differently, I can easily tell.

I mean it's given that he's really caring no matter who they are but he hits different when talking about Analyseana.

"Actually, it's my fault."

I can see from my peripheral vision they he looked at me after I uttered those words. Chances of him getting mad isn't low, from all those videos I've seen, he was so different like a whole different guy.

"I was so guilty that I couldn't stop crying. I went to her this morning and I just wanted to confirm if she was really just a mere human, so I told her that mere humans that enter this world can no longer return to their world, she was so caught up in it that she was so out of her mind. That's what made her late and unable to wear the PE uniform. I approached her many times but it was as if she heard nothing. " and then I am starting to sob coz I'm about to cry again whenever I get reminded of how she looked so pitiful awhile ago, she had to went through that because of me.

I expected Kipween to be mad but he just pat me.

I looked at him and he smiled, his dimples showed off. "She values her family there more than anything. To tell you honestly, she doesn't even know that she's being treated differently. Her classmates in the human world, I don't know what's with them if they're crazy or I don't know but then I realized it was because of the energy she gives off that pushes mere humans away from her but she really loves people, she keeps coming back to them after being pushed away, especially the familt that took her in."

My heart ached. If she really is like that then she must really so frightened awhile ago that she would be stuck. What kind of stupidity did I do.

Pero I'm confused so I frowned."Energy?"

Kipween nodded. "She's not a mere human, she's a dragon's descendant like us. She can read minds whenever she looks into the eyes, she can identify the person by their scents and motion sickness."

Now I'm more confused and curious. "Then why isn't there any pressure coming from her? I mean there is but it's faint."

Kipween's facial expression changed. "I.. She is so identical to Yumegenchi so I am trying to hide her as much as possible."

My jaw dropped after hearing that. "Identical? You mean physical appearance?"

"Yes, copy paste and there's one more thing I'm concerned about.. Her magic pressure, without those concealers, I placed on her.. Her pressure is so overwhelming.. Enormous.. That I wouldn't even wonder why humans stay away from her."

Concealers.. Hah! Those accessories! Yes! why didn't I notice that?! She doesn't look like someone who would really wear those so ahhh omg.

I suddenly remembered the myth. Of course, I heard rumors about Yumegenchi being the product of a God and Demon. That's why Janinah, one of her closest friend was triggered when Analyseana said she wouldn't even dare to loo---wait what!!

"OMG, too much information."

"Yeah."

We arrived at Kipween's apartment and my heart ached once again now that I saw her like this. 

She's trembling, she's obviously cold and I noticed how pale she is. Of course.. Anyone fighting Elimiere even if he didn't take it seriously would suffer major damage.

I started healing her. Hopefully, she would be better tomorrow. And now I am more than just willing to help Kipween take care of this girl.

This girl.. This transferee really is something.

Koukishin's Point of View (Analyseana Vanidestin)

I woke up and stretched and suddenly I feel so lightttt, I feel like all of my body aches disappeared. So sleep was the only solution for it although I expected to get sick and such but it's not like that, I am thankful I am better. I mean what did I ever do anyways to get this kind of just desserts.

When I stood up from my bed, I saw foods on the table and I'm sure it's from Cade, who else?

Then so yeah, I ate and took a bath. After that, I wore the school uniform and oooh wow, I like staring at my body right now, it's not fat although my face is a little weird and new for me but I'll get used to this soon, someday but I am still wondering how did I turn like this. After looking at myself in the huge mirror, I decided to check my schedule and wow. Yeah.

There are no classes today. I'm fine like really really fine haha.

So I removed the uniform and just decided to change to normal clothes and then just sat down on the sofa, pondering a lot of things.

What if I happen to be a billionaire's daughter? Ah that would just be too amazing, I'd always spend my money every hour on things I really want to buy. What if I get in a big and famous university and then graduate as valedictorian in the U.S.A and then many rich companies would come running after me? Then I'll work hard and become a billionaire then my daughters, sons won't have to worry about their tuition fees.

So after daydreaming, I looked around Cade's apartment or condominium? I noticed how clean it is. You wouldn't think a boy is living here hm. Could he possibly be a gay? Hala. Ohmy. 

My eyes widened when I realized we have been friends for so many years and not even once, he didn't introduce a girl to me. Oh my could he really be.. a.. ay ambot boang. (ambot boang = bisaya expression that means I don't know, crazy), waaah what a waste.

I looked at the time. It's 8 A.M. I slept a lot. Well if you were me, wouldn't you do the same after what happened? I still think it was unfair, he's a boy, of course he has extra strength because he's a boy.

It's really really unfair.

After a few minutes, I caught Cade's scent with.. Miss Rostingdias? I panicked and I don't know what to do so I just took the blanket and pretended to be asleep. And it was just a perfect timing that when they got in, I was already in a good position.

"She's still asleep."

"What a sleep oil."

Sleep oil? What's a sleep oil? Aish no matter what is that, I just continued to pretend to be asleep.

"Let's just wait for her to wake up, let's not disturb her. She'll be happy if I tell her I'll allow her to work."

My ears stood up, shocked and happy at the same time. I stood up and pretended to wake up. I yawned and stretched then yeah plastically rubbing my eyes and plastically shocked to see them here.

"Oh.. Cade and Miss Rostingdias? You're here?"

Cade smiled, walked towards me and messed my hair up. "Good morning sleepyhead, prepare and get ready, we need to go somewhere."

I noticed Miss Rostingdias and she just waved at me. I never knew they were close.

I'm totally fed up with those jerks.

It reminded me of what she said yesterday. Ahhh that explains it so that's why. She's really that girl in the fictional world who's close to the famous boys in their school and so she just couldn't seem to care but..

there's a higher chance of them ending up together right? Omg this is the chance! Who knows Cade isn't really a gay and oh my who knows maybe---

"What are you waiting for? Start moving." Ms. Rostingdias said.

"Yeah, she's right and oh by the way, I haven't introduced her to you but I feel like you already know each other since you're in the same class..."

Oh my God this is itttt. "Omg congratulations Cade!!!!! Ahhhh I really thought you were---" I said as I stood up and hugged him.

"This is one my cousins, Jahzyra Mayi Hildegard Rostingdias. C-Congratulations for what?"

And it was as if the world fell on me. Cousin hehe, cousin.. Hildegard yeah Hildegard is also Cade's middle name. They're cousins so like.. They can't be together. So I sighed, Cade's really a gay, lowkey gay. I just blew my bangs.

I bowed and smiled anyways although huhu that was the only chance to prove that Cade isn't a gay."We met yesterday, actually she healed my knee, once again thank you so much!" she is that cool girl with healing abilities and mind reading abilities.

"Ah this is fine, I don't need to prepare or get ready, but where are we going?"

"What do you think? Is her outfit okay, Mayi?" I felt really stressed after hearing that question, he really is a gay hayst.

"There's no need to thank me many times and yes, not like we're going to somewhere that needs formal attire, besides her outfit is actually really suited for it since it's flexible and easy to move around."

I just looked at them talking and just looked at my outfit as well. It's just a black jogging pants and black t-shirt. What's wrong with this? But I am still curious. Where are we actually going???

"So where are we really going?" I asked again

"To get you some work" he said then smiled.
