As Sahar left the nursing room, Merceline started to cry her eyes out, because it was being unbareable for her now. While she was crying, a boy had to come to the nursing room because he got injured while playing soccer. He heard a girl crying and went that direction, only to find the same girl from morning. He saw that she was injured badly and had bandages on head, hand, leg there wasn’t a place that he didn't found covered with bandages, he thought to himself. ❝Can this be the reason why she was crying at the school gate? Why is she injured so badly?❞ Even though he was injured himself, he couldn’t care less about the girl who was laying infront of him and crying her eyes out. He reached over and wiped her tears. Merceline was shocked for a moment as she didn’t knew someone was here. She stared at the boy with teary eyes and the boy's heart melted at her eyes. Those were beautiful. So beautiful that, he couldn’t bare the tears at her eyes. Yet, he managed himself and asked her, Who did that to her? Merceline didn't replied to him nor he asked anything else. Because he was stunned on his words. "What am I saying? AHH! Rune!! Can you not embarrass yourself like that!!" He was complaining in his mind and out of embarrassment he started to say things about himself. ❝Um, Im in class X. My name is Rune Hart. I'm the topper of my class. I'm the only child of my parents. I like watermelon, grapes. My favorite color is yellow, pink, red and I think a pink dress would look good on you. Don't mind that.❞ He kept going on about himself while Merceline was confused why he was talking about all these things. Meanwhile, Sahar came back and found a boy sitting next to Merceline. "Could that be her boyfriend?" She thought to herself and walked towards them. She hurriedly left the food box infront of them without even looking at Rune and ran to get out of the room. While she was running, she said, ❝Make sure to feed her!! I gotta go to a class.❞ Rune and Merceline was stunned by her work. Rune didn’t thought much of it but Merceline was ashamed because she thought she was causing problems to both of them. Rune took the box and started to feed her. Merceline noticed that his hand was wormed and tried to tell him but she was unable to do that. So, she just stared at the place and soon Rune notice. ❝Don't worry, I always get hurt while playing soccer. It's nothing.❞ Merceline nodded her head. After eating Rune told Merceline that they were friends now and she can depend on him. Saying that, he left the room, so that, she can rest. Merceline didn’t took his words seriously. She knew, he was popular among the girls because he's handsome and popular among the boys because of his friendly gesture. Everyone liked him. Even Merceline too but she didn’t thought, he would come himself and be friend with her even the other girl. Who knew, that the destiny suddenly thought to have some mercy on her and that she would get two friends in a day even though in a dark day as it was for Merceline, she was happy that she got two friends. She was overjoyed and fell asleep. After she woke up, she found her bully beside her. ❝Aww, our little princess has woken up!!❞ Merceline was shocked to see her but yet, she stayed clam and noded to Asteria's question. ❝Aww, our princess can't talk. Should we help you to make you like that way? Hm?❞ Her friends were shocked of what Asteria has said. Even they don’t know from when, Asteria became like that. Like.. To beat people to dead... And other things as well.. Asteria hold Merceline's hair and by then Rune entered. He shouted at them. ❝WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS DOING??❞ Asteria was shocked for a moment that someone dared to shout at her but when she saw that it was Rune, she started to act differently. She liked Rune. Afterall, he had everything every girl wants in a boy, even though she was a senior, she could careless about that. She released Merceline's hair and went to Rune. Rune gave Asteria a dead glare. ❝Oh myy!! Look, who's giving me love stares!!❞ Rune didn’t thought much and slapped her. Asteria falled down and she just stared at him. Rune went to her and whispered to her. ❝Don’t you dare to touch my friend again. If you do, I'll make sure to make your rest of the high school a living hell.❞ Then he went to Merceline and wiped her tears as she was crying. Asteria and her friends left from there and Rune helped Merceline to get home. When her mother opened the door, she was shocked to see the condition of Merceline and she asked Rune what had happen. Rune looked at Merceline and she shaked her head. He matched the dots and understood that she was being bullied at school. He answered her mother saying. ❝Your daughter went to play boxing for a prize. She got hurt during that match!! I tried to stopped her because that girl had been in practice for years. She didn’t cared to listen to me.❞ Her mother looked at Merceline and asked her why she did that. Rune answered on behalf of Merceline. ❝If she had won the match, she would've gotten a scholarship and that's why she went for the match. Let her rest for few days. She will be fine.❞ Her mother thanked Rune for helping Merceline and Rune left from their house. On his way home, he kept thinking about "how a beautiful girl like her, can be builled for no reason." While thinking about these things he was already infront of his house. He went inside and saw the whole house was a mess. "Ahh!! Did dad came again?" He went for looking his mom but didn’t found her. So, he have guessed that she must have gone with his father. This happens once in a while so he didn’t give it second thought. He throw his bag in his room and started to clean the rooms. When he was done it was already 8 pm. He was about to sit down when someone rang the bell and he went to the door. It was his mom. She came in and saw that the house was spotless. She smiled and told Rune to take some rest and she will make dinner for them. He went to his room and layed down on his bed. Before he could know, he falled asleep. After making dinner, his mother went to call him but saw that he was sleeping and decided not to wake him up because he looked tired today. She went to sleep as well without eating the dinner.
