17 Everyday Life (1/2)

Ever since the prom night where I confessed to Jessica, I felt closer to Aria and felt that everything I did is fun as long she is with me but of course reading novel, manga, and watching anime is still the best.

There was one time I invited Jessica and Mario into a poll, and of course I brought Aria too.

When I and Aria arrived there Jessica and Mario already arrived earlier, so after greeting each other we went in together.

In the poll, Aria caught me staring at Jessica and she got jealous so she sent an illusion of a giant shark that only I can see and felt in the name of training.

At first I thought it was a joke but the moment the shark bit me I felt pain in my lower body, even thought it last only one second I still didn't want to experience it and if I didn't dodge the shark, Aria probably will get angrier.

So I swim while sending some spiritual tentacle to whip the illusion since it was made of spiritual energy it can slow the shark down.

The whole time I was in the poll I didn't have time to talk to Jessica or Mario since I actually want to talk to Mario in the first place when I invited them.

When we are about to take shower to wash off the pool water, she finally released me and with a satisfied smile she hugged my arm until we reaches the shower room.

In the boy's shower room I take the shower next to Mario and suddenly I started talking to no one but hearing the content Mario knew it was for him.

”I actually liked Jessica since I was a child” I stopped and Mario looked at me but I continued showering while continuing my speech.

”I kept myself around her because I want to earn her love and to kept the bad guys from her by using the rumour that I was Jessica's boyfriend when I actually isn't”

I stopped once again to wash my face ”actually there was a lot of guys who challenged me, tried to confess to Jessica but I hold them back because I knew most of them are playboy that just want to 'get' her.”

” I was happy with that status of mine as her best friend and her rumoured boyfriend, I was about to make the rumour a reality.”

”but when the day comes just when I was about to told her, she asked me an advice”

I laughed bitterly and I turned my face to Mario who is shorter than me a little and he already looked at me since the first time I spoke.

”it was an advice to how to make you her boyfriend, Mario”

I took a deep breath.

”I agreed to her and I run of to vent my sadness you know but as I investigated you, you are truly a good guy and you loved her as much as she loved you”

”even so if…if you changed, made her very, very sad I will kill you and I have the capability to do so”

I said this as I stared at his eyes, his eyes flickered around for a moment but this is probably a normal reaction. To make my word more convincing I made an illusion of spears suddenly surrounding him.

Of course this made him scared and his eyes switched rapidly between my faces and the rotating spears around him but he didn't screamed.

”well you have the courage, I mean if you make her cry or have a normal couple fight I think it's normal but the one I am talking about is if for example you cheated on her then I will at least expose you before killing you in 'incident'”

I snapped my finger and the spears disappears, I took his hand and handshake with him.

”thank you for listening and please heed my warning” I smiled as I said this.

I left the dumbfounded Mario there and went to the changing room since I finished my shower.

I went out from the boy's showering room and immediately I heard a complain voiced out.

”jezz, just what you are doing in there, making us wait so long and even Mario isn't out yet”
