Chapter 5: Still Working

The next day after freshening up Tony prepared his breakfast before heading out to school. It's not like he wanted to but his school had some strange strictness regarding attendance if it went below ninety per cent then the school authorities would contact his father and tell him about his absence from school. He was already in the final year of his senior high school so this was quite a restrictive thing to do.

When he was about to exit the door Tony checked the time on his phone which made him remember the pocket watch. Even though the pocket watch no longer worked his gut told him to go and try it out again. Listening to his instincts, Tony walked towards the table and grabbed the pocket watch that had been lying on the table the whole night.

The moment he grabbed it he pressed the button on the watch and felt a viscous fluid overlapping his body. This was the exact same feeling he had felt the earlier two times when he had stopped time so Tony couldn't help but be ecstatic. Tony then observed his surroundings to find something which he could use as a reference to check the pausing of time. His eyes soon fell on the wall clock that was on the wall beside his television.

Seeing that the hands of the clock were no longer working he pressed the button again and the hands of the clock once again started moving. Keeping the pocket watch in his pocket he proceeded out of his house in a much better mood now that he knew that the pocket watch was still working. While sitting at the metro which was heading towards his school Tony felt like checking the results of the message he had sent last night.

Opening the app named 'TalkNTalk' which was a social media app that originally was created with the purpose of just chatting but then later on as technology progressed they decided to include more features like posts, and reels which made it more interactive for the users. The app soon opened up just as he had anticipated. The post had been shared several hundred times and it was the same number of likes.

He soon saw the message that was sent by the two girls not too long ago claiming that the images were fake and requesting the moderators to remove them from the platform. Though it was a pity that the denizens of 'TalkNTalk' were not easy to fool with. Tony also added some fire by writing a reply for the two of them. "The plumpness of the breasts of you two weren't fake at all for me. Your parents did a good job of hiding with the two of you at your school but as the bearer of truth I can't let it be all covered up like this now, can I? Enjoy your moments of fame you two, plenty of underwear have already been stained with semen that has been released with your body in mind. Peace~"

With a grin on his face, he sent the message and kept back his phone as his station had arrived. Walking towards the school he saw a street vendor selling fried chicken and a lot of people rushing to buy it. If it was before then he would have ignored it because of the rush and come back later to buy it but that was not the case now. Pressing the button on the pocket watch all his surroundings paused as Tony walked around the crowd and took a fresh plate of fried chicken that he was about to give to a customer.

Tony didn't forget to place the money in the vendor's pocket before walking to a certain distance and pressing the button again. By the time Tony reached his school he had already finished eating and was walking towards his class. Opening the door of his classroom he saw the gazes of his classmates observing him for a while before they went back to what they were doing earlier.

Noticing that three seats at the back of the classroom were empty Tony's mind went back to what he had done yesterday to the three of them and couldn't help but feel a wave of satisfaction pass over him. Walking his way to his seat Tony sat down and began arranging his desk. While Tony was arranging his desk he sensed that someone had come to his seat and looked upwards to see an average-looking girl with a nerdy face standing near his table.

"Is there a matter class rep?" Tony asked looking at the nerdy girl with spectacles.

"Why didn't you come back to the class yesterday after the lunch break?" She asked.

"Why do you want to know?" Tony asked her back. It was the first time he was interacting with her as before yesterday he had only been bullied after school hours by the trio and hence never been late for the classes.

"As the class rep, it's my responsibility to know about everyone," Rika said. If she was not the class rep then Tony would most probably not even remember her name as pressured by all the bullying the last thing his mind was free to do was to think of all the girls in his classroom.

"I wasn't feeling well so I decided to take a day off," Tony said not wanting to tell her about everything because it would only be a hassle to him. What would she do after knowing it? Help him? He can do it himself especially now that he had this pocket watch with him.

"Only for this? Tony, you know right how seriously our school takes attendance of its students. If something like this happens again please inform me first so that I can handle things for you." She said to Tony and seeing Tony nod at her she took her to leave and went back to her friends.

"What were you talking to that fatso about?" One of her friends said while making fun of her. "That's none of your business Milly," Rika replied.

Milly knew that Rika was just doing the job she was supposed to do so she didn't continue to make fun of her and started discussing with her the new series that she was watching.

Tony clearly heard the girl calling him fatso but he wasn't affected a bit. He knew that he was fat and now that he was no longer being bullied he could fully devote himself to getting into a better physical shape. The homeroom teacher soon entered the classroom and after attendance he started taking his class.
