Aiden walked to the classroom while his eyes could not stop looking at his small bandaged hand. If he enters the class with a band-aid like this, he can already tell that his friends will be fussing about asking this and that, knowing the personalities of his friends that were busybody.
Besides, this cartoon band-aid will clearly catch the attention of his friends. It’s weird for this always macho Aiden to wear band-aids like this.
Aiden knocked on the door after arriving in front of his class then stepped inside. All the eyes of his friends began to focus on him.
“What?” Aiden asked lazily.
“Hey buddy, where have you been? Took you long enough just to send homework, huh? Is the class leader that busy?” Marcos asked as soon as Aiden entered the classroom.
“Whose fault is that? If you can't be apart with me then, don't appoint me as class leader. Now, I was too busy to spend my time with you.”
“You sure hold a grudge.” Marcus laughed in a low voice. He knew Aiden would raise this matter until the last day of school. The day of the appointment of the class leader, Aiden never stopped protesting, did not want to be the class leader, but because his friends were too naughty and liked to see Aiden's reaction, they stuck to their suggestions.
Eventually, on the day of the appointment of the class leader, Aiden went straight home and did not speak to them all for a week.
As a consequence, they all regret at doing that to Aiden and promise to not let that happen again.
“But seriously, where the hell are you going? Did Madam Nina asked you to do something again? If so, why don't you just refuse? It’s not like you to care about other people.” Marcos asked again.
“Send a box.”
“Huh?” Marcos is in confusion with Aiden's answer. Send a box? Is that the task that Madam Nina gave to Aiden? Can't Aiden even answered properly? How can he understand with that little answer? Okay, he gets it that Aiden is not a friendly person, but shouldn't Aiden at least answer his question well with sincerely? But Aiden can speak to woman very well though.
“And, you crazy? She was a teacher, how can I dare to refuse her? I might be like this but I’m actually a really good student.”
Marcos was only able to remain silent before he came back to speak when he saw Aiden's injured hand.
“Aiden, you hurt your hand? And what’s wrong with your band-aid? I don’t know that you are into cute things.”
Aiden gives a blank stare, does not know either Marcos just wants to insinuate or he is really just want to say.
Aiden’s friends who had been focused on their own work now turned their gaze towards Aiden. They just thought the band-aid that Aiden used was interesting, but none of them dare to ask seeing how Aiden doesn't want to have a talk about that with them. The band-aid has a hello kitty cartoon picture and the colour of it, is pink. That really doesn't fit the character of Aiden.
"If any of you want to ask something, then just ask. It bothers me when you guys keep looking at me." Aiden sighed as well as he frowned, unable to bear the gaze that his friends gave at him. See, his friends are all busy body. They are really a real pain in the ass too.
"Sorry, it just..." Emma did not finish her words instead looked at her other friends.
"Where have you been?”
“What do you mean by sending a box?”
“Did Madam Nina asked you to?”
"With who?"
"How did your hand get injured?"
"Who treat you?"
"No actually, are you dating someone again?"
“And your new girlfriend treat you?”
“Come on, tell us who is your new girlfriend. Introduce her to us.”
Marcos, Marcus, Sophia and Emma kept asking questions, not wanting to miss a single story while Gianna and Rohan simply nodded their heads, indicating that they both had the same question.
Aiden brushes his hair back using his hands, depressed listening his friend's relentless questions. This is the reason why he does not like his friends that much. Nah, kidding.
"No, first of all, I don’t have any new girlfriend. It's just that there was something happened. I bump into Mabel at the store room and bad thing happens, she fall from the ladder and I without thinking, try to help her by catching her and yeah, that's how I get a scratch on my hand.”
Aiden rubbed his injured hand. “So she helps treat my wound. That’s all, there is no girlfriend or whatsoever.”
"Wow, you catch her. I thought you wouldn't care if she fall." Sophia become speechless.
“What so weird about that? I'm still a human being, you know. Its not that surprise if I come to help people. After all, if you are the one in Mabel's place, I would save you either."
They all nodded their heads. That's right, Aiden is not so cold -hearted that he doesn't want to help people who is in trouble. But still, it's quite a shock that Mabella able to treat him when Aiden actually hate being in contact with strangers.
"But, you don't like anyone other than us touched you. Your girlfriends before this also wouldn't dare to touch you without your permission, right?" Sophia asked.
“She obviously just wants to treat my wound, nothing else and it's not like I was so picky about someone who want to treat me.”
“Are you all satisfied now? If so, please go back to your place.” Aiden immediately drove away his friends causing his friends to whine. Aiden remains Aiden, the cold -hearted person.
Only Marcus noticed something. He silently looked at the Aiden who was staring and rubbing his injured hand before looked at the outside window, while draw a fascinating smile causing Marcus stun a little.
