The Pathetic Boy and The Reliable Girl

"Hiro! Come on let's go already!"

"C-coming!!!"

A girl that seems to be at the age of 10 called for the young man's name. She held a radiant smile as she reached for the boy's hand.

"Let's go!"

Without waiting any longer the girl forcefully pulled the boy's hand the moment it reached hers. The boy's face started to blush, he who had a crush on the said girl was now holding her hand. The feeling could only be described as heavenly.

"Yeah..."

He smiled as he lifted his head and walked with the girl with their hands held together.

--

A dream... He thought as he woke up in the middle of the class as he noticed that the teacher was already beside him with a book ready to be pummelled on his head.

"T-teach!?"

"You again, Hiro!!!"

The boy's name is Hiro Berzelius he was born on the country of England... Though it's basically because her mother was assaulted by her employer he was made to be his bastard son.

The mother was a Filipino. She had looks of a bonafide filipina. She had black hair, and a slender body, her skin was exquisite to the taste of foreigners having most of the English people having pale skin she was quite different this must be one of the reasons, why she was assaulted.

The father born in england was a person of high-birth though not as close as royalty but they are a wealthy one. He had honey-blond hair and strong-looking physique. He is quite the honor student and a lady charmer at that. They were both at a young age when they were discovered to have an illicit sexual relationship.

The mother was forced, deported back to her home country. The father was well... Was never seen again after that time.

The mother still held to the father's promise to meet with them again and gave her son at birth his father's last name.

And now he is 14, he is entering the days of his adolescence and also is an upcoming graduate in his highschool.

"It hurts..."

"It's your fault, after all!"

The boy touched his head and resigned disappointed after the girl talked with a sermoning tone.

"I'm sorry..."

"It's not me you should be saying sorry to but Teacher Holman"

"Yeah..."

"I told you not to stay up late so much and yet here you are sleeping because of sleep deprivation."

"B-but I-I was d-doing my homework! Y-yeah that was it!"

"You think that lie would go through? You didn't even pass an assignment today... Are you stupid?"

"Guuh! Rena... You don't have to be so mean to me... At least comfort me or something."

"I can't be Hiro's at your side every time there will be times that I too will turn my back behind you... can you take that?"

"..."

The girl's name was Rena Harlan, 14, he's at the same age as the boy and is also currently on their senior year at highschool. Despite being a naggy person she cherishes the boy dearly and as much as possible want to save him from embarrassing situations. But the earlier scene was the boy's mistake.

"Well... Have you learned your lesson yet?"

The boy, Hiro, despite having a delinquent like hair. He is an honor student. Though his face couldn't be called handsome he couldn't be called ugly either it's in the middle of so-so or so what the girls would call "a silver in a bucket of bronze"

He looked hurt to what the girl have said and was about to cry.

"Too mean..."

"E-eh? H-hey! Don't cry ahhh!!"

"You said you'll be with me forever and now you're saying that you'll leave me?"

"Ahh! Eh! T-that was!"

The boy stood up and ran outside while crying. "It's supposed to be the other way around stupid!" As she thought she followed him while yelling "hey! Wait!".

Lunch break people often gather in the cafeteria or some other place to meet but as Hiro was running from Rena after their quarrel earlier.

Rena followed Hiro to the rooftop with her lunch box in tow.

"Hiro!! Come on stop that I have my lunch here! Show your face already."

"..."

The boy sneakily moved to and fro and managed to not get caught or so he thought.

"Got cha!"

"W-wah!"

He fell on his bosom as he was surprised by the girl's sudden appearance on his vision.

"Eh? I was sure that I didn't make a sound... B-but then why?"

"Seriously I've been with you for four years I know your tricks already!"

"N-no t-that can't be!"

He held his head in despair and crouched on the ground.

"Come on! Let's eat lunch break's almost over..."

"Ah! Nn..."

He loosen his hands and looked up and nod obediently like a dog he went to his master side...

"What's the food today, Rena?"

"Hmm? Ginataang-Paksiw!"

"That fiendish dish again? At least make Pork-ribs or something like Corn-soup."

"What do you mean fiendish! Look this food is what my parents have worked hard to get and cook for me so I can eat at lunch! We are not like you who's rich and everything!"

"I'm not rich! I just... Work so mom wouldn't have to go overseas anymore..."

"Is that why you're up-late yesterday?"

"Mmmmm... I was watching some anime until late last night!"

The girl that held her lunch box to her knees gently put it down on the space near her and clenched her fist. Ah! She looks really angry thought the boy...

The girl, Rena, swung her hand with full power and targeted the boy, Hiro's face.

However, her punch was dodged gracefully with the boy having a smug on his face.

"Heh... You're not the only one who knows where the punch will land! My life was threatened by that punch many times so I imagined every single time and practiced to dodge them!"

"I see then how's this!"

The leg of the girl suddenly lifted from the ground and it started to move at a fast unprecedented speed! The boy saw heaven "it's white" he thought to himself but he was distracted by it that he didn't have time to dodge the girl's kick...

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

"Gefu!" Said the boy as he received it in his abdomen.

"Hmph! Stupid! Bleeh! Eat by yourself!"

She took off while wrapping the lunch box back in her handkerchief.

The boy fell unconscious and time went on.

--

[Ding ding ding ding]

A sound of a prerecorded sound came from the school's speaker it is the signal that lunch break was over.

The boy, awake from his slumber, felt a stinging pain in his abdomen... "That girl really kicks hard if that was my head it might've come off already..." But then he remembered... The heaven that he saw in a split-second "White... Huh?"

He then moved his head left to right like he was trying to disperse that thought in his mind saying "no-no she's my friend I mustn't have a single perverted thought about her" as he said that he steeled his heart and his mind.

He was late for class since he woke exactly after the sound rang the fourth time. He was feeling lethargic and wanted to stay at the school's rooftop until the next subject however... It was hot... Too hot apparently he immediately find a shade to rest but since the sun was high up the shade was at the very least small in size and couldn't give him cool air to breathe in.

"The library" he thought as if he looked down the wired fence on the rooftop.

He went down immediately and headed towards the library at the next building's first floor.

He strategically planned as to how he will not be detected by the teachers on the way to the library... but as he tried to sneak away on the last checkpoint "the library" he was stopped or basically his name was called.

"Berzelius!"

He turned his head on the direction of the voice and saw a girl that's cleaning the glass in her eyeglasses and put it on...

"Yuki-chan how do you do it?"

"Skipping class again?"

"*Gulp*"

"Haah!!! I'll tell you next time!"

"Hey what kind of attitude is that! You're most probably like me trying to avoid class using the pretense of guarding the library while the teacher is gone."

"I am guarding the library... from someone who doesn't go to his class in the right time."

"It can't be helped Rena-chan knocked me out."

"Will you quit it with the -chan Berzilius-kun!"

"Telling me to quit when you're doing the same..."

"Ah!"

The girl blushed lightly as she remembered her slip of tongue...

Yuki Sonohara, or Yuki-chan for short is a girl coming from the esteemed country of Japan. Well she mostly had her time in the Philippines than that of Japan so basically she's a Filipina in documents and Japanese at heart since sometimes she slips and adds some honorifics to a person's names. This mostly happens when she's having a casual banter with a friend...

She bit her lip lightly and looked at Hiro angrily...

"W-what?"

"Just go in..."

She looked as if she lost interest and started tapping on her phone.

"Weird!"

"I don't want to hear that from you! You delinquent crybaby!"

"Don't give me weird titles!"

Hiro went inside without restraint and started to roam inside to find books that might interest him. Though mostly he's in the manga section of the library. The cool air that came from the A/C relieved Hiro from the heat that was succumbing his body. He took a book and lazily sat in a soft comfy chair and read it with his hand stretched upward and his back bent backward.

He read a boring history book for a change of phase and started to doze off. In the end he fell asleep and masked his face with the book the he held.

He woke up in a nostalgic place that's near the grasslands of the countryside and saw two kids running around happily playing then suddenly the boy falls down and started to cry.

That boy was Hiro and the girl was Rena. He was a pathetic boy who always cried in the presence of his childhood friend. He always wondered why he could cry when he sees her with him... Then a sudden thought pass through his mind "I can't be Hiro's at your side every time there will be times that I too will turn my back behind you... can you take that?"

His mind went blank... What would he do if Rena was no longer there. The pillar he held on for the past 4 years. What would happen if she wasn't here...

"Hiro!! Hiro!!! HIRO!"

"Waaaah!!!!"

He woke up and bashes to another person's forehead... Rena...

"R-rena!"

He hugged the girl immediately not wanting to let go...

"Rena! Rena! Don't leave me! Don't leave me!"

"E-eh?? Eh?"

Puzzled, the girl was looking for a way to calm Hiro down...

"C-calm down Hiro!! I'm not leaving okay? So calm down..."

"R-really?"

"Yea! Really so let go now I won't go anywhere..."

*Hic Hic*

"I-I thought you were going to leave I had a dream that... you were going far away!"

She fell silent at Hiro's remark and looked at him seriously... She was thinking how to say it to Hiro. That she was leaving to study abroad after the graduation ceremony this year.

"I-i'm not going anywhere... So you don't have to worry..."

She didn't have the resolve to break Hiro's heart as she saw what happened only after he saw a dream of her leaving.

"Thank god..."

Hiro held Rena's hand lightly and rubbed his thumb up and down...

"A-anyway let's go Hiro"

"... Yeah!"

Rena was still thinking of ways to tell Hiro about the situation. It is only 5 more months till the graduation in march.
