Childhood Friend

A boy was just walking at the side walk, wearing a dark blue hoodie, with white colored fractured like shapes on edges, and wearing a long black pants, his hands were in his pockets and his head was looking straight with his eyes half closed, while listening to music

MC's P.O.V

4 Days before the last day of school, not much to do, the Exams were advanced and all is left is fun, the teacher said that we can go to school or not, since there's nothing to do left except a bunch of activities for being friendly and social, that's all, all I have to do now is just stay at home, but . . . Is that all? There's nothing to do left rather than that, or am I missing something? I stopped walking and looked at the sun directly while covering most of my eyesight with my hand, and started to think, 'what is it am I supposed to do?' "Oii!! Tom-Kun" ,that voice . . . Damn it, it's that damn girl again, a girl with Loli like figure just about a few inches smaller from me, with long purple hair and beautiful violet eyes came rushing to me from behind, her name is Shane, for some goddamn reason she was my childhood friend, but of course that didn't last, "What in the world do you want Shane? and please stop calling my name with a Kun, we're not in Japan you Weeb" I asked her without hesitation and a bit of irritation, "Geez, Tom, you don't have to be so rude, I just want to talk to you" she replied to me with a heartwarming smile, I remained my straight face rather than being to feel the heartwarming smile, "While standing here?" I sarcastically said to her, "Of Course not, we're walking together of course!" She replied with that cute smile again, "Tell me your joking, Well 'Why Not'?" I said to her and sighed while looking back to where I was heading and started walking

"Oii! Wait for me!" She ran to catch up with me, after that she has her hands intertwined behind her back and walking so happily, "So what do you want to talk about all of a sudden?" I asked her as we stopped while the traffic light was red, "About during our free time!" Wait what? "What do you mean 'our'?" I asked with a bit of a shocking expression, "I meant, I know you're not going to school and me too, so I decided, why not we both spend our free time with each other?" She answered my question as we continued walking, she decided this all by herself? Well she may have some reasons, she had that smile again, the class's Loli is Motherducking annoying . . . Well she's my childhood friend, "No" i said as I tapped her shoulder, "Why Not, come on Tom-Kun! Are you gonna' bail on me again?" She said and we stopped walking because she was facing me and pulling me close to her, I got a little irritated when she called my name with that Japanese honorific, across the street I saw our classmates

"Wait isn't that Shane? And That Nerd?" Said the Male Classmate, "Oh My! What the Hell? Are they seeing each other?" said the Female Classmate.

I got more irritated and pushed her off of me a little and said with a sigh, "Fine . . ." She let go of me and was happily rejoicing my answer, "But in one condition! Never call me 'Tom-Kun'! Understand?" I said to her while scratching my head, "Haiii!!" She answered with a Japanese yes, and as it continued, we kept walking and walking, while talking about what we would do during our free time, I still can't believe she decided this alone, everything she said was like we're having a Date, I agreed to everything she said since she will stop calling me Tom-Kun, an hour passed and we are now Infront of her home, despite being curious what may her reason be on why she decide alone, I remained quiet about it and waved her a slight goodbye while she was waving her arm like there's no tomorrow, I continued walking alone as always, it didn't took me long to find my house since it's just besides her's, my two-story home, my parents bought this, so, I don't have to worry about the rent expenses, about the energy and supply of food, I gained enough money to survive myself for more than 2 months, then I have to go back working to earn more, the electricity usage of this household is quite low despite me being a gamer and a shut in

I usually just read some books during my free time, I only play games twice a week since I know that if I favour my gaming addiction then I will have to pay the electricity for my home so much that it won't be enough for food, sadly I never heard of my parents since I was twelve, they left me with such a few cash and I used it wisely and worked hard to earn more, I swear to my name I will make them pay for leaving me behind, only Shane is the only person that cares about me and yet I. . .Treat her like she's nothing, I went inside my so called 'Home Sweet Home', and put my bag where it should be, I took off my hoodie and hanged it, i sat down on my couch and rest, thinking about everything I have to do for Shane, I treated her like trash while she didn't care about it and just care for me . . . I have to repay her since now I realized it . . . Welp tomorrow's a big day, I went in my room after a little rest, I laid myself on the bed and yawned, when i faced my head on my bed table, I saw the envelope, the white small envelope with a heart in the middle, I got this when I opened my bag, it was weeks ago, I dare not open it due to the fact it might be a love letter obviously, but now, I have no choice but to to read it now, I opened the white envelope and unfolded the paper inside it :

'Hi Tom, I hope you'll read this letter of mine, meet me at the rooftop of the school after it ends'

I gasped and was shocked a little, I didn't opened and read this letter at the same day it was given to me, I felt a little guilt despite being careless of everything, I made someone wait for me, wait . . . After School Ends? What did the person meant in this letter? Did that person meant the day after school ends or the time after school when it 's time to go home? What did she or he meant? It made my mind stumble upon conclusions and trying to create a hypothesis, but I didn't, I ended up having two possibilities which are still my quetions, I'll go to the rooftop of our school premises after it ends, I'll never know my answer if I don't insist to find it, looks like I have to, I rested my eyes as I laid the letter on my table, I ensured my doors were locked from inside before I rest . . . .
