MELANCHOLIA: Chapter 3
Chapter 3
ANGUISHED SOUL
LEVI’S POV
“Where’s Adalee?” Caius asked.
I hemmed and hawed because of his sudden question. “W-why?” I asked as I packed my things up. The day had just ended again. Time to go home from school.
“Oh? What’s that? Why are you stuttering?” he asked in a teasing tone as he tried to look at my face.
“W-why?” I snorted. “She went home already—I g-guess. Darn it! W-who knows? Why are you asking me? I don’t know!” I raised my voice as I immediately marched outside the room and left him still arranging his belongings. That gossip monger!
“Ya! Aish, jinjja! Kidaryeojuseyo!” Hey! Oh, seriously! Please wait! he yelled, but I didn’t bother myself to wait for him. “Why? Am I not allowed to ask you anymore? I’m just curious! Hey, Levi!” he dragged on, but I just ignored him.
Adalee was keep popping on my mind. Her face, her lips—she lost her smile and it was bothering me.
“I wonder where did she go? Or is she okay?” I whispered to myself as I made my way down the school hallways.
“Levi!” Caius called after he fell behind me.
“What?” I replied without giving him a look.
“Let’s stop by to the computer shop. What do you think?”
“No.”
“Wae?” Why? My eyebrows met because of his childish tone. I turned my head to him, and I saw his face twisted while he was thumping his feet on the ground.
“What’s with you? It’s past 8 in the evening and I’m tired! Let’s go home,” I said and before I could be able to step forward, I heard him thumped his feet hard.
“Come on, Levi!”
“Stop. No. Let’s call it a day, huh?
“Andwae!” No! he protested. “Gat-i sur han jan eoddaeyo?” How about a drink together? he suggested, eyes sparkling.
“Caius!” I raised my voice, showing him that I would disfavor.
“Jebal!” Please!
“Aish, jinjja!” Gosh, seriously! I carped as my lips twitched in annoyance. “You shameless guy! Stop it! You and your tantrums! Oh, gross!”
“Come on!” he said, walked towards me, then dragged me outside the school. At the end, he made me come with him at a bar. Oh, people!
The place were hundreds of conversations told in loud voices—all of them was competing with the rock music that dominated the atmosphere. The crowd at the bar was young, mostly students from the University. We made our way through the warm bodies to order a drink—the dark local beer—the main reason why we’re here. We stayed at the bar counter after taking our drinks. How could I resist this annoying, childish human being anyway?
“Oh my! Look at that chic,” Caius bursted out as we sat in front of the bar counter.
“Chicken? What?” I said and made a face.
“Aish!” Gosh! he snorted and rolled his eyes. “You’re so killjoy!”
I turned to the woman on the next table and said, “34-30-35, 33% belly fat.”
“W-what?” he asked as he turned his head to where I was looking.
“36-28-30, 30% belly fat,” I uttered while looking at the girl sitting on the couch. “30-26-33, 27% belly fat,” I added as I looked to the...
