Chapter 4
Am not really sure if it's the weather or exhaustion from my run under the rain with thida, but i feel awfully sleepy these days.
"hey" chaoyi called "you 've been asleep all day. get up it's time for lunch"
i stretched lazily "yay i can't wait to eat good food".have i told you about one of the priveleges about being the only black i get to make my own food time table and they believe almost anything i say the only person that recieves such special treatment like me is thida i heard her family is kinda rich something like that not like i involve myself in my enemy gossips.
"hey kid flash"
i turned, think about the devil, i could feel her shadow hovering over me.
"i lost my room key" she stated
i frowned "so? "
"gimme your key"
"what! why? no! never! "
she grabbed my collar chocking me, automatically my hand fumbled in pockets for the key. she lets go.
i touched my throat "have i told you, how you always take my breath away? "
without so much as a thank you she glared past me snarling at somebody at the door. poor guy.
"why didn't you tell me she bullies you? " chaoyi asked he looked hurt.
"and what did you do about it just now? " he scratched his nape, "precisely.. besides it's all good i get my days and she has hers"
He nodded not understanding anything "so where are you going on your day out"
i was so sleepy i could barely open my eyes in suprise "day out? what does that even mean? "
"it's like a public holiday you get to leave school grounds but be back by 6 pm".he explained. " so where are you going? "
"huh? me? i don't know anywhere in thailand i don't even know where i live" i rubbed my eyes "i might just skip lunch"
"huh? " he exclaimed "why? "
"i feel nauseous" i replied, sulking off
"then you should visit the infirmary instead of sleeping it off" he said "come i will take you to the-"
"don't worry" i cut him off "if i don't wake up again my room mate will scream for joy thats your signal"
he stared sheepishly at me unable to grasp whatever message it was.
My room mate was crouched on her bed by the time i reached the room.i painstakinly took off my uniform, threw on an oversized jersey and slumbed on the bed effortlessly. the sounds from her phone were loud and disturbing, i rolled and faced her.
"can you tune it down cinderella, last time i checked you are not deaf" either she didn't hear me or she was just ignoring me which am preety sure thats the case. i got off my bed slugged over to her and fell on her bed.
"what do you think you are doing! " she yelled.
"let me watch the movie with you" i stated firmly.
her reply was quick "no"
i shrugged "you know if you don't let me watch the movie am just going to frustrate you right? "
she stared daggers at me i could even imagine her cussing me in thailand. without a word she turned and continued her movie, i snuggled closer to her.
"your legs are cold don't touch me" she warned i could tell she was at her limit.
"please" i scoffed "you are as cold as dead fish why would i want to touch you? " . she ignored me and honestly all that talking was making my head ache i had no interest in the movie anyway so i just put my head down i was so dizzy i didn't realise when i dozed off.
Thida let out a sigh"the movie is finished you can go back to your bed now? "silence.. thats wierd she turned to the girl sleeping beside her, she looked small and frail unlike her real personality
" hey! kid flash.. wake up" she reached over to shove the intruder off her bed when she realised she was burning up, probably a fever. why didn't she go to the infirmary if she was sick? tch she sighed what a nuisance.
I opened my eyes, i felt warm, very warm. i turned, i was in the embrace of my enemy. how did we get into this position? i remembered falling asleep on her bed but what happened after that? plus unlike yesterday i don't feel like s**t any more. if i could get up without-
"wait" her voice was emotionless like she had been awake the whole night "how do you feel now? "
she was worried about me? awwwn "am okay now"
"great" and she tossed me out of her bed "now get the f**k away from me and my bed"
i groaned savagely, so much for worrying about me am sure she was dying to get rid of me as soon as possible. my stomach growled, i should get breakfast first.
I met miss shalom and shy in the kitchen. "good morning miss" i greeted.
"good morning guys" i greeted the cooks.
"oh fay how are you feeling now? " miss shalom and shy asked even the cooks looked worried.
"huh? how did you know...? " i stuttered
"oh a preety girl told us" john said he was one of the cooks, my pal.i will later on find out his name is actually jung not john and he is korean lol.
"preety girl? " i questioned.
"oh he means thida.. your room mate" miss shalom and shy answered "she was very upset thar you were sick".
i scratched my neck typical thida she was upset to be the one that had to tend to me.
" she is so caring" miss shalom and shy went on "i didn't know you guys got along even though she still wants to kick you out of the room"
hah thida now every one believes you are a saint, i grinned, you owe me. my stomach grumbled savagely.
"oh how insensitive of me" miss shalom and shy looked around "of us i mean.. sit sit jung will prepare something to help with the cold and some drugs too"
i screwed my face "can i just have the food alone? "
"no you must take your drugs" miss shalom and shy said firmly "because i made a bet with miss thida that you will bounce back to full health if not she would formally ask for a room rearrangement of rooms from fear of contacting an illness from her infected room mate. "
i scrowled "she can't do that"
"actually i can" a voice spoke from the door "not only do i get to kick you out you get quarantined" she grinned "just one more day in bed is all it takes to get my letter approved"
i laughed bitterly "do you think you can get rid of me because of some shitty fever?" i turned to miss shalom and shy "where are the drugs am going to take my drugs lets see how that letter of yours is getting signed"
she shrugged "suit yourself afterall you are still going to do something wrong soon enough and like any normal i***t out there you didn't read the rules and regulations.. " she paused "did you? "
i gaped "hey! "
she shook her head "just like i thought a complete i***t" and she walked away as quietly as she had entered.
i turned to miss shalom and shy "she can't really do that right? "
she sighed "she very much can as long as it's stated in the schools rules and regulations"
"then can i get a copy of the schools rules and reg? " i asked
"um.. but you were given a.. -"
"i lost it okay" i dismissed quickly "can i get a new one? its a matter of do or leave"
"i don't understand how that relates but yes i can get you a copy".
