In an elementary school.

"Ahhh!! She always makes me angry"

"...? What again this time Lina", Astry.

Astry was already used by Lina's behavior.

"So, what your big sis do this time?", Astry.

"Aghhh..!! I can't believe it. Why she never let me make the omellete? or the nugget? Always do the salad. Salad, salad, salad, salad... Sometimes, I want to make others too!", Lina.

Astry who hear it make a confused face.

"In the first place, do you like cooking that much?", Astry.

"It's not about hobby or liking. It's about love. Do you hear me? LOVE!!!"

"Still can't understand. Just eat your lunch before I eat it myself"

"Okay, okay. Hey!! Don't take that..", Lina.

Astry's elementary school was lively as usual.

***

Andy's middle school.

In the cafeteria.

*Slurps~*

"Ahh... To think I would find it", Andy.

Andy muttered to himself while eating.

Yes, he found it.

'To think I would found a good seat to eat in this cafeteria, this day must be my lucky day!'

He eats in peace. Forgetting all his problems in class and enjoying the noodle soup.

He really nervous back then in class because of the next lesson with Mr. Lenner. Making him remember that incident.

But his uneasy feeling somehow alleviated by eating.

It was until someone sit beside him.

'...?'

From many seats to choose in this table, he chooses beside him. Even though Andy already choose to sit in the corner of this long table.

'Now, my day is ruined... What a bad day...'

"Hey there!", Hasen.

".....", Andy.

He ignores him and continues to finish his food.

"Y-you remember me right? Your friend in right of your seat?"

Andy pretends to not hear that and gets up with his already finished food.

"Wait! Ahh... he goes", Hasen.

He goes. Walking to a nearby trashcan, discarding his plastic bowl.

With a stoic face, Andy goes and drinks his packed milk with a straw.

***

Occasionally, Andy uses the break time to get around the school on foot. Watching scenery to passes time.

"Humm.. hum... Hmm..."

He likes to see buildings and fields. Make a tour to many places. Refreshing his eyes from the whiteboard.

"Hmm... I heard it was good to take a walk after eating. Good for digestion they said"

There also many other students. Leisure in their break time.

While walking on the 4th floor, he sees a few students below. They get together behind the building. In a narrow space of lane.

'Is that smoke? They're smoking right?'

Andy already sees them smoking a few times there, so It's not a surprising matter.

But there's something that bothers him.

It was a boy standing there.

He was trembling, pulling out something from his pocket. The other also seems to laugh. Probably making fun of him.

"A bullying huh... welp, let's watch for a bit"

He is not a bullier, but he still thinks It's interesting.

"Watching a bit wouldn't hurt, right?"

'Just make sure didn't see by them. Luckily, this was the 4th floor'

***

Below.

"Hey, why you pull out your money? You make us look like the bad guy here"

"Not with your face. He probably scared seeing you. Lol"

""Hahahaha""

The four of them laugh at his friend's joke. He does have a scary face though.

"P-please help me... I want to be a bad guy too. Yes..! I will pay for it! So please..."

The boy says it in front of them. He was a tiny kid with short blue hair.

With a scrawny limb, he sticks out his left hand with money in it. 

A few coinages. Probably equal a sandwich in a cafetaria.

Facing this kid, five of them are having a hard time.

"Hey, kid. What would we do with some loose change? Just go away"

"Shoo! Shoo!"

One of the guys said that while blowing smoke at the boy. Making the boy cough.

*Cough! Cough!*

But he seems still insist on it. Standing there with an unperturbed gaze.

"Sigh..."

The guy with a scary face sighing. Then, he got a good idea.

"Okay then. I will teach you how to be a bad guy"

"Is it true?", The boy.

"Yep"

His others friends seem taken aback.

"Hey Jo, You're kidding right?"

"What are you thinking!"

"Shhh... Just watch me", Josse.

Then, the scary face guy, Josse makes a serious expression. He takes one of his friend's vape (e-cigarette) and gives it to the boy.

"Hey! What are you doing with my vape?"

"Shhh.... Just lend it for a bit. Yours have fruits liquid in it. Suitable for newbie"

Then, he teaches the boy how to use it.

A few moments later...

*Cough! Cough! Cough!!*

The boy coughs it. With a cloud of smoke coming from his mouth.

"What is this?", The boy.

"It's something we, the bad guy use. Because you used it too, from now on you will be a bad guy. Now go, new bad guy!", Joss.

"Really!? I'm a bad guy now..? T-thank you then!"

"Okay, just go. And don't come back"

"Yes! I will never forget your kindness..!"

The boy then goes happily. 

He also forgets to give his money to Josse.
