My Bothersome Life Chapter 67

"Who wants to be with Rika?" Daniel asked .

Somehow, everyone was partnered up except for me . The only person without a group hid away behind Alex and Luke unwilling to move .

"How about you, Charles? You're also the only one without a group as well . "

"Wait- . Come on Alex?" Charles whined .

When Alex shook his head while he clung onto Luke harder than before, Charles glanced at Allan like he was pleading for help .

However, Allan quickly looked away as he latched onto Sh.e.l.ly's arm .

When no one else was willing to switch partners, Charles started begging, "Can I be alone then? I would rather do this alone than to be with Rika . "

How rude!

Up till now, my cla.s.smates had always remained the same . It was my close friends, Sh.e.l.ly and Ellen and their respective partners Alex and Allan .

That's why I was excited when I heard from the second year of middle school, we would have two new cla.s.smates joining us .

One thing that was an disadvantage in extremely small cla.s.ses, was that it was more noticeable if you were drawing in your notebook during cla.s.s or daydreaming .

So I hoped that with two new cla.s.smates, the teachers wouldn't pay much attention to me . Up till now, their stabbing glares were mostly focused on me than actually teaching .

"So let's welcome Charles and his partner Miliana to our cla.s.s . They used to be in the cla.s.s right beside you so you may be already familiar with them, but this is a chance to get better along with them . " Daniel announced .

Miliana shyly smiled while Charles waved to Allan .

"Now, we will have group a.s.signments, but you cannot be with your partner as a new twist! When you find your groups, I will tell you the task . " Daniel continued .

Ellen, with her motherly nature from taking care of Allan all the time, asked Miliana, "Do you want to be partners?"

"Thank you for taking me," Miliana replied gratefully .

While I was watching that heartwarming scene, somehow everyone already had a partner . I glared at Sh.e.l.ly, and she mouthed 'Sorry, Allan begged me' .

Traitor! After standing alone, unable to find a partner, Daniel with his gaze pitying me asked, "Who wants to be with Rika?"

And this is how I eventually ended up with the unwilling Charles .

"Hey! We're meeting after school tomorrow to start . " Charles said to me with his arms crossed .

"Unfortunately, I have plans . " I declined .

I made plans with Sh.e.l.ly and Ellen today to meet at a cafe tomorrow to welcome Miliana to our group .

"Well, cancel them . " Charles rolled his eyes .

"Whatever," I walked away from Charles and thought how pitiful Miliana was to have Charles as her partner .

I cut a piece of my favourite strawberry shortcake as MIliana shyly started the conversation, "You know that you're really famous here Rika . I'm became a fan of you ever since you entered middle school . "

What?

"What? How?" I asked .

"Well, you had the courage to skip cla.s.s in the start of middle school . " Miliana hestiantly replied .

Hmm . So skipping cla.s.s was something major in the first district .

"Skipping school isn't that hard . You should do it too when you get too tired . It's not good to keep on working all the time . A human being needs occasional breaks as well!" I encouraged Miliana .

Sh.e.l.ly and Ellen looked away strangely while someone behind me whacked my head .

"Hey!" I yelled .

"Stop being a bad influence on my partner!" Charles shouted .

"Why are you even here anyways? Don't you have your own things to do?"

"Remember we decided to meet today for the project?" Charles said as if it was confirmed .

"Nooo! I declined, Remember?"

As Charles was still behind me, I stretched my arms to whack him in the face as he whacked my head .

"Oopps . Sorry, it seems that idiocy is not easy to fix . " I taunted back .

Charles' face transitioned into a red tomato from the humiliation while he was trying to compress his anger . n.o.body has ever hit Charles before, not even his parents . His partner, Miliana was usually very obedient that she listened to almost everything he said .

Ellen and Sh.e.l.ly could sense the stream from Charles as they cautiously moved further away from the table .

"Just you wait, you brat-
