Where Your Secrets Hide

SECRET 52

When they disappeared from our sight, we continue walking and we stop in front of my classroom. "See you later mate." Jake said and walk away from me for him to go to where his respective classroom is. "It seems like you and Chase, I mean Jake are being a good friend isn't it?" I turned around and saw Vick standing behind me with a smile on his face while looking at me. "Yeah, it looks like we are." I answered him.

Vick is uhm...

Is a mailman.

He works as a mailman of our town ever since he was 14 for him to help his family.

They are not that rich, they are not that poor, they ar ein the middle of poor and something in the middle before you go to the status of having a balnce money.

Fun fact is that, he is the one who gave me the newspaper the night I despose Cahse body, where me and Henry is looking to Cahse body, planning on what to do with him.

I am just glad that he forgets that day, that he enver suspected a thing, specially when he smelled the death of Cahse body.

"I felt sorry for you. Losing your house because of this random dude is a s**t. I hope the culprit will received his karma as soon as possible." He said while we are walking towards my chair. "What if the karma wont hit him? But instead, what happened to me is my karma?" I asks him and look at him, hoping that he understand what I meant. "Well whatever what you did is in the past, just accept the karma, but believe me, if someone do your karma, that someone will received its own karma. But if your karma comes in natural way... Then, no one's going to received a karma." He said and I put my bag down on the chair where I'll be sitting the rest of my class.

I smiled at Vick after I sat down and he went back to his sit, which is behind me.

The day just went normal, well, there is a lesson going on, my classmate are playing with each other, everything seems normal.

But my mind is flying away from the reality where I was.

Its just I couldn't stop thinking of C and why is he doing this, why is he spreading everyone's secret? Why did he brun my house? What did we do wrong to him? Who is he and why is he so mad at me, what did I do?

I mean, it all started when Cahse died, so I am assuming that whatever this madness of his comes form Cahse, maybe he is mad because I killed Chase?

I mean, he deserves to be mad at me, but what is his relationship with Chase?

C cannot be one of Chase family, because if it is, then if they saw me crack Chase neck, then they should've called the police on me and blame everything to me, they will do their power fro me to be in prison, but instead, C here wants a secret revenge, C wants vengeance, C wants to haunt me with my guilt.

And If C is really mad at me, then why did he troubled other students too? Even the principal?

And why now?

Or maybe Why did C not troubled any students before and only focuses on me?

I have a lot of questions regarding to C, but I cannot aswer them all since I literally have no idea who am I finding and who am I asking.

I can't asks around if they are C and tell them wny is he blackmailing me with Chase dead photos.

I can end up in prison that way.

And another thing is, why did he steal my money then going to give it back later...

Unless he really is not going to give me my money abck and it is another trap to set me.

But how am I going to know if I don't try or if at least peek thorugh the place where he wants me too mee him.

I just couldn't understand him, I couldn't read him

"Hey! You alright?" I went back to reality when Shena called me.

"What?" I asks. "Mr. Hall. Are you alright?" I look up when our History teacher called me. "Yes I'm fine, sorry." I apologizes. "How could he be alright Sir when someone burnt down his house?" I look back to see West mocking at me. "Mr. Honington! Stop this at once." Our history shouted at West. "By the way, we are sorry for that news." HE said and continue to teach.

I look to Shena who is now reading a book beside me.

I wanted to thank Shenaa for waking me up to the nightmares that I am having, I just couldn't stand it you know/ The anger and at the same time the confusion that I am having rught now.

I couldn't understand the feleling that I ma having right now, I have no idea why.

After minutes of class, the bell finally rang means that it was now our break, I pack mmy stuff and put it inside my abg and walk out of the classroom. I avoided people, specially their eyes, I don't want to see them judging me, I don't wwant to see them talking about me, I am the rpesident, I shouldn't be the one who should be embarrass to what happened.

When I arrive the cafterai, only few students stayed here in fact, the other students ate outside the campus, or in their respective classroom, while the other stayed here, it s because of what happened last day, the roof is still unsealed, the roof is still broken.

They are still not fixing the roof nor the table where Ares fell.

I can still see some stains of blood on the ground, on the floor where Ares fell, where our table is.

"Jeez dude, are you a mannequin?" I turned around and saw Vick behind me holding a tray of food. "Oh sorry, I just remembered what happened last day, when Ares fell from the roof." Is aid and we both walk to the canteen's staff for us to get food. "Yeah dude, it still freaks me out, I just couldn't understand how did he fall? Everyone's been saying that he was standing on the rooftop with the hoodie man just before the glass breaks. But what I see from afar is Ares falling down from a third floor or something." He explained. "Aren't you afraid? That one of us can be next to Ares?" I asks him and he looked at me.

I can see his eyes, I can see the worry and the chills of him at the same time.

I don't know if he doesn't care or he is not afraid or that he is scared and worry at all.

His eyes are mix of full emotion where it is hard to guess what that is, what is true emmtion is. Because you know what they said, to see someones true emotions, feeling, desires, look to their eyes, and you can see the real color of their life, you can see their real emoitons, can sense their real feelings.

But his eyes are just black, nothing to see.

While we're walking towards our table, someone bumbed to us and they didin;t even bothered to apologize when I accidentally drop my tray of food on the gorund.

"Dude you alright?" Vickk asks. "I am." I said while saving some foods that can be save, food that didn't touch the dirty floor. "Can you have maners? Atleast apologize or buy him new food." Vick shouted to the girl who bumped to us who is still walking like they didn't even feel us touching her shoulders, bumbping to her shoulder.

The girl turned around and it was no other than Luciana.

The transferee, the red headed girl.

"Sorry." She calmly said and calmly turned her back on us and keep walking away from us like nothing literally happened.

"What a weirdo." Vick said and help me to stand. "Damn, I smell like a burnt hotdog now." I said while looking ti the shirt that I am wearing where there are staints of the food that I ordered. "I'm going to the bathroom, I'll see you again later Vick." Is aid and tap his shoulder and walk past through him for me to go to the bathroom to clean myself up.

I entered the bathroom and there are two boys inside talking while washing their hands.

I walk towards the sink and open the faucet and start washing of the stains on the shirt that I have.

"I heard about what happened to you Mr. President." I look to my left where the two boys are. "Do you need any help from us?" His friend asks me.

I just smiled at them as an answer and look back to the mirror for me to look where the tains are for me to wash it off.

"I am the president, I should be the one whould helping you and the others student, not students helping me. I am the responsible one here, and not you." I answered while still washing the stains on my shirt. "Obviously, it wasn't your fault that your house burned. It was probably C the hacker since he is the one who posted the clip."

Yeah, they are right, it is C who burend my house.

But how am I going to take revenge when I didn't even know who C is at all?

"Thank you, really. I do appreciate your concerns about me. But really, I don't need help from any of the students yet. The only thing we need to prepare for ourself is the upcoming prom." I said to them. "But the prom will be help 3 months from now." They said. "Yeah, but this prom is not an ordinary prom like last year, this is extravagant event. And of course the exam that is coming next month." I said and close the faucet.

I dried my ahnds and my shirt and smiled at them.

"I really am thankful for the help that you asks. But what we really need right now is to help ourself not the president." I said and leave both of them alone back in the bathroom

I went back to the cafeteria and look around to find Vick, and that is where I saw him talking to Carla with Jonna and Katharina.

I walk towards them when Austin blocked my way.

"I heard what happened." He said and look at me with Fernando and West on his side. "So?" I asks him. "So why do you still act like nothing happened?" He asks. "It is none of your business Austin. It is my business to act on the things that happened to me." I said and I tried to continue my wlak but he still blocks me. "I really pity you. But I do think you deserved it for talking back at me and for acting though than me, and a special reason is because you killed Chase." He said.

I took a deep breathe and quickly grab his shirt towards me.

"I already received my Karma. When's yours?" I asks him and push him out of my way. I heard him giggle and look into my eyes like he is serious about what the words he is going to spill out. "My Karma won't come. Because I don't deserve to be punish at all." He said and walk pass through me. Fernando and West act like they are going ot punch me but they never received a reaction from me that makes them confuse.

Why? Do they think I will be scared to them? They are the one who should be scared of me, because I can do a lot of things that probably can terrify them.

So I don't care if they gave me death threats or anything, because up until the end, I'm still standing.
