"I honestly feel like Jace is one of the mafias." Harper firmly said. She’s now playing a mafia game with her friends.
"What?" Jace’s confused. "I'm just an ugly citizen."
Harp squinted her eyes. "Liar. I heard a sound beside me when the moderator was picking out killers so you must have raised your head that time."
"No, I'm just an ugly citizen." Jace closed his eyes while he raised his right hand.
Haruto smirked. "Or maybe, you are a mafia, Harper."
She raised one of her eye brows. "What makes you say that, huh?"
"You've been pointing your fingers at everyone since the game started." Haruto said.
Harper shook her head. "Nope."
Haruto then stood up and caught her by wrapping his arm around her neck. "Ah!"
"Just admit it, you're a mafia." He teased.
"I said I’m not!"
Right then, they heard a bang on the table in front of the classroom.
Everybody went back to their places. Haruto lets go of Harper. The both of them bowed at the strict teacher. "What were you doing?" Mr. Song walked towards them.
Harper and Haruto just puts their heads down low.
"Raise your arms." He commanded.
They did what they were told to do. "Up high."
She gulped. "Now, out of my class."
Haruto then started walking out of the class while his arms are up high. She just followed.
They stopped outside the classroom and stood beside each other. They looked at each other and laughed. "It was your fault!" Harper whispered.
"Just admit it." Haruto whispered back. "You're the mafia, right?"
"I was the doctor, idiot!"
"Hey." Harper flinched. "No talking." The teacher pointed at the two of them once again before going back to the classroom.
They couldn't help but laugh.
They tried to listen to the teacher from outside. But instead, the both of them proceeded on talking. "You're turning me to a bad student."
Haruto raised an eye brow. "Really?"
"Remember the other time we both got kicked out? It was because we're too loud." Harper made him think.
"No. It was just you, who was loud."
She rolled her yes. "My arms are starting to feel tired." She bit her lips.
Haruto laughed. "I'm used to this."
"I can see." The girl laughed a bit.
"You can put it down, if you want." Haruto told her. "I'll cover you."
Harper shook her head. "I can do it."
"If you say so."
They just waited for the school bell to ring. The both of them were really hungry.
Once the school bell rang, they both released a sigh of relief. Of course, hey didn't put their arms up the whole time.
As the teacher walked out of the classroom. They gave him a smile. He just glared at them as he walked away.
The two students put down their arms up once again. "Can we please get a new math teacher."
"Yes, please."
"Harp." Minzy walked out of the classroom with Jace.
Harper stretched her body. "That was soooo tiring."
"Come on, let's eat." Minzy grabbed her hand and started pulling her away, on their way to the cafeteria.
Jace looked at Haruto.
Haruto suddenly laughed.
"You crazy." Jace said. "The heck are you laughing, you just got kicked out of the class another time."
"I was the mafia." Haruto shrugged.
Jace’s hand met his own face. "Oh god. Can we please just eat? Aren't you hungry?"
Haruto laughed. "Sure."
The both of them made their way to the cafeteria and ate their lunch.
After eating, they went separate ways. Jace went to the bookstore to buy something while Haruto was headed to the music room.
As he walked in, he knows there's no one in there right away. He often goes to the music room after he eat his lunch. It's either he sleeps in here or he thinks about some stuff.
He sat at the middle of the room. He likes it here, it's quiet. And when he's on the mood, he'll play a song onstage. He remembered that time Harper sang at the front without noticing him. He laughed.
She's a good singer, though. He thought.
He finally came back to his senses once he heard someone walked in. "Haruto?" He stood up. "Are you here?"
"Here." His voice kind of echoed.
She walked closer to him. "I just.. want to talk to you."
He smiled. "About what?" Haruto sat back down.
She remained standing up. She bit her lip as she looked down. "I know, we've been losing time for each other."
Haruto looked down. "And I don't want you to get hurt." He continued to listen to her voice.
"But I hate lying anymore."
Haruto breathed in and out. "Go straight to the point."
Leana bit her lip once again, trying her best to hold back her tears. "Haru, I don't love you anymore."
Hearing those words, Haruto smirked.
"Thank god."
Leana gulped. She looked at Haruto who's head is still down low. She's confused.
Haruto suddenly stood up. He faced her. It's pretty dark but you can see the smirk formed on his lips as he walked closer to her.
"Finally, Yanna. I'm goddamn tired of this bullshit." He keeps on walking towards her, making her step back.
"Haruto." Tears left her eye. "I'm.. I'm sorry, I don't want to hurt you, I'm sorry."
"You think I'm hurt?" He chuckled.
He sighed. "This bitch thinks I'm hurt." He laughed. He slams his hand on a chair, making a quite loud noise echoing around the room. "You think I didn't know?"
"You think I didn't know the fact that you're still in a relationship with him?!" He yelled, making Leana close her eyes. "You two, trying to play with two people. Is that even right?"
"You think I'm dumb enough to love you once again after what you did to me?!" He continued. She remained silent.
"You tried to play with me, again. Huh? I've known everything ever since you got back here."
She looked up at him again. "You do?"
"The words 'I missed you', 'I love you' all those shit that came out of my mouth. Those are lies. Because all this time I knew you've been lying to me, too." He smiled.
"Defending you on Aki and my parents?" He licked his lips. "You believed those?"
"I'm sorry.." Leana’s tears kept on flowing.
"I hope you don't think I'm dumb enough to not know who that jerk is."
"Cause I know him. I do." Haruto's eyes are teary. But he doesn't let those tears fall down. His eyes are filled with anger as he looked at Leana’s eyes. He turned his back on her and walked out of the room.
He left her there, staring at nothing. She's frozen.
