I could hear my elder brother strum the strings on his guitar, checking each one if it was in tune. He tried to play many random chords to find a good beat for the song. I've been thinking about whether I should stop him for some time. He was too serious about playing it.

[Ryouma!]

I decided to call him.

[Yes?]

He raised his head.

[Can you…play somewhere else?]

I hesitantly asked.

[Hmm?]

I bit my bottom lip as he tilted his head sideways.

[I can't concentrate.]

I told him. I still need to continue finishing the task given by that mindless zombie. Should I leave tomorrow work to tomorrow me? Tomorrow is Thursday and if I do that, I'll probably get detention by him then.

[You should have just told me earlier.]

Ryouma frowned and sighed before putting his guitar back on the stand in annoyance.

[You looked too serious…]

I mumbled, scrunching my face.

[Why don't I sing a song for you then?]

He suddenly asked and took a deep breath.

[Ryu~ga~…my lit-]

[Just get lost!]

I yelled at him, obviously annoyed. He was cut off before he could continue. Omg…Don't tell me even my elder brother was affected by 'annoying' virus too? Did he get it from Ryouhei? He has successfully become the most annoying things on earth and don't tell me my elder brother is going to join him?

[See you!]

He added as he waved his hand.

I gritted my teeth, quickly pushed and shooed him away from my room. After that, I dragged my feet back to my desk. I sat on the chair and looked back at the empty piece of paper. Holding my pen, I spun it while thinking of what to write in the paper.

Now…Why did Romeo and Juliet die at the end? The answer was actually pretty easy. After watching, reading and researching about it, I discovered that both of them…were basically idiots. Yes…It was pure stupidity. They had acted foolishly before thinking about their action. They were too drowned in their love that they were blind to everything except each other. Let's not forget their family's feud that leads to their own tragedy.

For me, I could only conclude that both of them and their family were basically an idiot, moron. Such a pointless death. Pretty much, everything they do is pointless. Yep. Why did he even give this task?

If I write they were the idiot on this paper, will I get punished by him?

I've been trying to figure it out with no luck. You won't know what a mindless zombie will think inside his head. In the first place, I have never been a person who cares about other people thoughts.

Around two thousand words essay and tonight, I'm totally going to burn almost all of my brain cells into dust just to finish this incredibly long essay.

Holding a book, I flipped many pages of ahead. A few moments later, I started writing.

[Sigh]

I could only blame it on studying in a private school. Now that I think about it, I wonder how does it feel to study in public school? This was actually the first time I became curious about it.

I was more or less able to accept that I was becoming a student which still has a lot to learn about the things of this world. Ever since I enter middle school when I was 7, I couldn't help but slowly act like one.

In this life, my status was completely reduced from a not-so-mighty to just an ordinary student trying to study on how to be successful people in the future, to search for a job and the list still goes on.

[…]

A few hours later~

[FINISH!]

My happiness only stayed for one moment before my phone suddenly rung and vibrated on my desk. I froze and looked at the name of my phone screen.

[…]

I g.r.o.a.n.e.d, picking it up and answered him while feeling annoyed.

[Huh? Why won't you say anything? Did your brother try to serenade you again?]

Haru asked as he laughed. He was a guy with dark brown-haired, one of my classmates that sit beside me in class. I guess he also could be considered as my best friend. As for Tatsuya, he, unfortunately, was in a different class, so our schedule could hardly match.

[…]

[Do you like grave?]

I asked.

[Huh?]

[I'll reserve one for you]

I softly said.

[NO THANK YOU! I JUST WANT HISTORY NOTES!!!]

He suddenly broke in a cold sweat.

I walked to my bed and slammed myself against it. Then, I sat on my bed and searched through my bag in an attempt to find my laptop along with my notes.

[Doze off again, huh?]

I asked half-heartedly.

[Cough! I was just too absorbed in her lesson that I have forgotten to write it!]

Haru's cheeks turned crimson. He pretended to cough, searching for the right excuse to tell me. Haru likes our history's teacher and always dozed off in her class especially when she started her lesson. Honestly, I was surprised once I found out about it. I certainly knew she was beautiful, furthermore, she didn't marry yet. But the age gap between him and her was like how much again?

10 to 15 years?

I felt like I was slowly becoming a cupid in quest of pairing my friends with a woman here and there. Tatsuya with a girl in his class and Haru with history teacher...Omg.

Truthfully, I honestly didn't feel like I had lived more than six life anymore, rather I feel like I was still going through my growing period and it all thanks to living in this world and met with these love-struck fools.

I lied on the bed and sighed.

[Yeah…so true. I guess you forgot that I sit beside you, huh?]

I rolled my eyes by his lame excuse.

[Agh! Anyway, can you give it to me before class starts tomorrow?]

He simply said.

[Sure, meet me at my locker. Sigh…you should just chill a bit bro...]

I told him.

[Did I seriously hear that from you?! Did I?! Fine, your locker then!]

After that, he calmed down.

[Thanks for your compliment then.]

I said, shrugging.

We talked for a while and I ended the call before he could argue. I turned on my laptop and looked at the notification that popped out on a laptop screen.

I couldn't help but sigh at the technologies of this world.

I remember how hard it was to communicate with people in the rest of my previous lives but in this life, it had become truly too easy. You have a phone, computer, laptop, and even a tablet.

I clicked on the notification and took a peek at the ID name.

'YunA' or rather known Yuna Umihara was my childhood friend that I met during middle school. She was the daughter a popular model from Entertainment Industries. Her mother and my mother was actually a friend.

I opened private chatroom and started chatting with her.

: Hello Ryuga-san!

Yuna greeted me.

: Hello…

I took my and embrace it while waiting for her to respond but…

: …

She suddenly turned silent around ten minutes.

: Eh? Sorry…My mother suddenly called me downstairs before.

She answered. Yuna felt guilty for leaving me for too long.

: I see…

: Have you finished your homework?

She asked slightly worried.

: More or less.

I reassured her.

: Are you free tomorrow?

I stopped typing for a moment. I cupped my chin with my left hand while lying face down, my elbow on the pillow. I shook my head in wonder.

: Hmm? Who knows…

: …

Yuna blushed furiously. She thought that I might start my teasing habit again.

: Alright, I was just joking. I'm free at 5 tomorrow evening. Are you asking me for a date?

I smoothly typed. I looked at what I had sent and once again wonder how I could type something so shameless incredibly smoothly without thinking. Ugh… Definitely, because I was influenced by that playboy.

: Is that so?

She responded with a question.

: What if I did! Humph! Just because you refuse my confession, don't think I will accept it!

She continued, raged by my question.

My mouth turned 'o'.

She sure is persistent huh?

Granted, I, someone who originally came from another world had now been completely reduced into constantly dealing with love life apparently.

I've been talking to myself this whole time too…

: And…where are we going tomorrow?

She asked resulted in I becoming utterly speechless.

: …

I simply typed.

: Fine! Tomorrow, Sutabaak!

She replied.

: Alright.

I nodded.

That was the last chat that I sent before I turned off my laptop and went to into deep slumber with a pair of kitty cats sleeping near me.
