Chapter 108 Weird Feelings (1/2)

For the next two weeks, Kyle was quite busy with school.

He had to organise the Student Council, prepare the reports of Sage Class for Principal Godric and the report of the Subsidiary Company for his father. He had delegated the Student Council details to Beatrice and Sam, while he handled the Sage Class reports.

As he finally laid down the completed reports on his table, he let out a huge whoop of joy.

”DONE DONE DONE!” Kyle said as he slammed the last report in the pile then stood up and pointed to all of them.

”You guys gave me so much work! I'm only 13! Prime of my life!” Kyle said as he put a foot up on his chair.

The reports Kyle was doing was part of the responsibilities Kyle had undertaken with Principal Godric before Sage Class was established. Kyle can still remember how Principal Godric kept opening and closing his mouth like a fish, unable to ask yet thinking it was possible until Kyle assured him he could. Even now, the memory made him grin.

Each file was a detailed report on the progress of the Sage Class students, him included. Although it was only two months, one could see the sort of work that the Sage Class members had done. It listed the research and progress of the research, and the future plans of the Sage Class members. That part had been done by the Sage Class members themselves.

Kyle's duty was to analyse all of the details and reports, and give recommendations as to what could be done to further the research. Identify potential problem areas and suggest whatever equipment or internship needed to help them along. This was a report Kyle would need to do every 6 months, though this time it was only 2.

”Who asked you to be the Top Student anyway? Doing those reports are just part of the job description,” Sam replied without any pity.

”I never asked to be. This awesomeness is too powerful to be contained,” Kyle said with a raised eyebrow.

He dodged a flying scrunched up paper on his left, then his right. He caught one that came from behind.

”Pah. Ametuers! Can't hit me even if I closed my eyes,” Kyle said dramatically, flipping his fringe with a flick of his head.

”Really? You're going there?” Ali said with a grin. Then he looked at Sam and Xing Han, ”Shall we?”

Xing Han was the first to stand up, rubbing his hands together, ”We shall.”

Sam didn't move - he wasn't stupid. Getting Kyle when he wasn't prepared is fine but not right now when he's aware. He went back to his work. Ali and Xing Han weren't upset but continued towards Kyle together.

Kyle glared at the two of them as they approached, ”You think that move will always work?” He knew what they were up to.

”Of course,” Ali said with a grin as he got closer, ”It's a wonderful weakness.”

Kyle got in a defensive stance, raised an eyebrow at Ali. Putting one hand up, then raising his index up, he waved it left and right as he shook his head, he then asked, ”You dare?”

Ali mirrored Kyle's defensive stance, adopted the 'Bruce Lee' facial expression (eyebrows raised, mouth in an 'O' position), flicked his nose with his thumb and replied, ”Why wouldn't I dare?”

Kyle and Ali proceeded to fight, but instead of some fancy martial arts move, they were comically smacking their hands together in front of them ala a Three Stooges* fight. Pure physical slapstick comedy.

Sam and Beatrice were basically ignoring the slapstick duo, doing the work that Kyle had assigned to them. Since they didn't have any classwork to do, it only made sense to use all the time they had to complete the Student Council work.

”How do you ever get used to all of that?” Beatrice asked as she watched the two laughing idiots. Her eye was twitching at the moment, but she did realise that its frequency was less. Was she becoming used to these sort of stupid things?

Sam hardly raised his head as he studied the documents in front of him. He had already taken the file from the Student Council regarding the New School Year Events and was reading the materials itself.

He said dismissively, ”Get used to what? The fact that they play around? The noise?”

”The sillyness,” Beatrice said with a frown.

”What's to get used to?” Sam asked seriously, ”If they were silly 24/7 and stupid, I wouldn't even be friends with them. Since they're not, I just ignore it whenever they start - unless I want to join in, of course.”
