Tinkle

Chapter Thirteen

I really don't like it when someone try to make me guess something that I am eager to know.

I'm blaming Evan for occupying 80% of my mind for his riddles I don't even know.

"You're heavy.", I said as I grunt, re-positioning Kurt on my back. This kid is taller than me and I needed to carry him.

Dare. Because of a freaking dare. I will smack Ben earlier for suggesting frying pan game. I don't know if he already know or not, but I am really bad at that game. My chance of winning that game would be 0.01%.

"There.", Kurt jumped off of my back when we arrived at their dorm. I panted as if I ran a kilometer.

I've been ignoring Al, Sean, and Evan for some time now.

Al, for bringing me at the realms, and because of that my mom scolded me when she knew about it. I don't know who told my mom, but I am really mad at that person who told me on her.

I know Mr. Juhyeol told him to bring me there (he's the reason I blame Al), but he should've said I'm meeting an actor's clone aka Mr. Juhyeol, a powerful deity.

Sean, for being missing-in-action; he said he would protect me but he's not even in the scene to stay beside me. I know we weren't that close enough, but I am a person who take promises and words seriously, especially when I know people were sincere about it.

And Evan, for always making me feel like a fool, hinting something I don't know about.

I feel like they are too much to handle.

Maybe I'm just overreacting. Or maybe salty?

"Where's your necklace?", David asked as he sat beside me, putting his left leg over the other. He has more sass as the days go by.

"Ah, about that?", I asked and sighed, "Mr. Juhyeol took it from me.", I said.

He gasped, "Why?", he asked.

"He said I was causing too much chaos blah blah and that because when grandpa persuaded me to stop doing what I am doing, it didn't work.", I said, frustration can be traced on my voice.

"Can't we go to your gaming room?", Albert asked Sean who was busy cleaning the dorm that is not even his. Can you believe it? A son of deity cleaning for these guys.

"No, we can't go there again.", he softly answered.

That's what probably the other guys know. Little did they know, it's the realms. Although they knew about David, or about me or Jack, they shouldn't know about the realms. Not that one.

"Aww. It's fun there, though.", Ruben said in disappointment, as he was now lying on the couch.

"We're here!", I heard Steve yell from the door.

He arrived along with Evan, Al and Ben with bags of food. I don't know why Al was still here instead of staying at the realms. Like Jack, he's busy there.

I walked towards him and helped him, totally ignoring the three.

"How come he always help Steve?", Ben asked, which made me just glare at him. I'll hit him later.

"It's the dare, remember? Steve and Kurt won against Seoji.", Jorge reminded the rest and Steve nodded as he grin.

Steve just dared me to be his assistant. I'll probably hit him after for making me act like one.

"Thanks, babe.", he winked, which made me scoff.

"Excuse me? We're not a couple for you to call me with some kind of cliché endearment.", I grimaced in disgust.

"We'll be soon, babe.", he said and laughed as he placed the other bags on the kitchen counter.

Why does mom let me hang out with this people? Saying, "You need to get outside and make friends.", and so on and so forth.

Oh well, they're fun to be with anyways. Although they are a load of headache.

This time I did not stood still. I glared at him and chase after him as he started to run. I mean, this kind of jokes are not so fun to me.

I jumped from one couch to another, catching him running around it. And you know, those movies when people jump over the couch or other things, they land comfortably on the floor.

That didn't happen in my case.

I tripped my right foot at the back of the couch badly, as my knees land on the couch before I land backwards on the floor. Wow, double landing.

I thought I'd be fine after, but when I tried to stand up, I realized my ankles have been twisted a bit, making me whimper in pain.

"Seoji!', David ran over to me, probably he's the one who witnessed my embarrassing landing. Steve followed, when he realized what just happened.

"I saw that coming.", I heard Evan said, who just arrived with a medicine kit already in his hand, as if he knew I would be in this condition before it ever happen.

The other boys rushed to us, Jorge nonchalantly helping me to sit on the couch.

"Steve!", Albert placed his hands on his waist as he was ready to scold his friend.

"Really, Steve?", Ruben hit Steve's shoulder as the latter just pouted and whined.

"It's not my fault, she's just really clumsy.", Steve said and crossed his arms. I glared at him.

"Jack, heal him.", Kurt pleaded. Jack just shook his head.

"I think you should heal her, Jack.", Al suggested, and Jack just shook his head again.

"No. This time I'll let her feel the pain because of her clumsiness and carelessness. I'm too tired to heal almost everyone.", Jack said. There goes again, his random cold treatment. I just glared at him.

I heard Evan sigh as he and David started spraying sprain spray on my ankle. Why does they have one each?

Lastly, Evan wrapped my foot with a compression bandage.

I looked at my wrist watch and noticed that it was already 6pm.

It's getting late, so I need to head home.

"I think we should send you home.", Ruben worriedly said as the others nodded.

"Thanks, guys.", I said. Although I feel so embarrassed right now, I managed to roll that words off my tongue.

"Here, you can use this.", Albert arrived with a pair of crutches. I didn't bother to ask why they have this at dorm and accepted it with a smile.

"Sorry, Seoji.", Steve pouted and ruffled my hair.

I smiled and shook my head, "It's okay, it's not your fault.", I stood up, as Sean helped me to stand with the crutches. My ankle slightly stings.

"I'll send you home.", Evan suggested.

Out of all people, please don't let him send me home.

"Ah, there's no need. I can just call a cab.", I said and smiled at them.

"I'll drive.", he said as car key dangles from his hand.

"Oh, that's my key.", Steve said as if he was amazed Evan got his car key, like a kid amazed by magic tricks.

"Yeah, I'm borrowing it, Steve.", Evan smiled and shrugged.

"You're just 19. You can drive?", I asked. He nodded.

Does he even have a driver's license?

I looked at the older ones and was in disbelief when they aren't stopping him, as they started to get back to kitchen to prepare food. 

I feel so betrayed. They chose me over food.
