One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Maxine’s Point of View

“What are you doing?” I wondered.

“What else? That scratch on your face will be treated, probably.” Alyn replied sarcastically.

I sighed, “I mean, don’t you have something important to do? So, what else are you doing here? I can treat myself.” I was about to snatch the kit from him when he immediately avoided me.

“Isn’t it important to treat your cheek?” This is a serious question that has stopped my world for a moment.

So, what he meant by what he was going to do was treating my cheek?!

“Are you crazy? Did you eat something bad?” I asked him because I still could not believe what he said. “Or, maybe I just heard wrong?” I added more.

He was just looking at me seriously. He stared at me for a few more seconds after which he started to put hydrogen peroxide on the cotton to clean the wound on my cheek.

Isn’t he mad at me because I fought with his girlfriend? Or maybe it’s just a prank and he’ll get revenge on his girlfriend later. Sigh, I don’t want to think about anything else. It’s up to him what he wants to do.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

I didn’t act anymore and just let him treat the scratch on my cheek, after all it was the work of his good girlfriend.

“Ouch!” I shuddered when I felt the pain of my wound.

It turns out that he is applying alcohol now so it hurts! He didn’t even tell me. He is really a demon!

“Does it hurt?” He asked me but his face didn’t even show that he was concerned.

My two eyebrows met and I stared at him. “Give me that!” I shouted and then snatched the cotton from him. “I’ll take care of myself! You obviously insisted on touching me with cotton earlier to make my wound hurt.”

Alyn smirked which really annoyed me. I knew it! Its purpose is not really good. He just pretended to heal my wound but the truth is he just wanted to take revenge on me for his partner even though I was really offended. Well, what else can I expect from this feeling king monkey. They really match! Ferries and him, they’re both plastic in behavior.

“I’m just trying to help,” he said which I ignored.

Instead of arguing with him, I decided to stand up. I picked up the first aid kit and walked upstairs to my room. I left him there with resentment in my chest. He’s annoying! Argh! The pleasure of being teased by his girlfriend. Why didn’t he just deliver Ferries on his own instead of upsetting my mood even more. Or maybe annoying me is his real job here in the world.

My gosh! I want to punch him and make him my punching bag together with his girlfriend!

It’s Sunday and this is the day of going to church to take away sins. But instead of going to church with the five monkeys, I decided to stay here at home and just watch the live mass on television. When I finished watching I had a video call with Angela. And I can see in her background that she just came out of church.

“Hello! How are you, Max? I miss you!” She greeted me with a wide smile on her lips.

I shrugged, “This. Is it okay maybe?”

Her reaction changed and she seemed surprised when I replied, “What maybe? You’re not sure if you’re okay or not?”

I was walking up the stairs to my room when I replied, “Hmm… it looks like that.”

“OMG! You might just miss me. Don’t worry, we’ll meet tomorrow.” Its smile widened again. She got into the car with her family while our video call was still going on.

“Can’t wait.” My answer. I went into the bedroom and lay down on the bed. “It’s like I just want to live in school.” I said while looking at the ceiling.

She snorted, “Why, Max? Do you have a family problem?”

Of course, I forget that she didn’t even know I was a runaway and I now live with five famous monkeys at school.

I shook my head, “Just kidding! You’re so serious.” I excused myself and laughed out loud.

“Sure you are, huh?” She asked to which I only nodded. “Anyway, I have a story!” I can see the excitement on its face.

I lay down on the bed before answering, “What’s that?”

She took a deep breath before replying, “I saw Sid with his cousins ​​earlier! Kyaaah! Super handsome, I can’t help but fall for him again!” She said while obviously being thrilled.

I just rolled my eyes. Sigh, of course. She’s a fan of one of those monkeys. She’s deeply in love with Sid because of his deep dimples, which every time he smiled it was as if she was being undressed by it, she said. I have no choice but to listen to her stories that she is the only one who is thrilled.

Our video call took longer. And we only stopped when he got home. We bid goodbyes before dropping the call. Then, soon after I heard the loud opening of the gate. Meaning, the five monkeys are here too! I just sighed and decided to take a shower before going down and eating lunch. When I finished, I went downstairs, as I approached the kitchen I could smell the delicious cooking.

“The scent…” I whispered to myself as I sniffed the smell in the air.

Upon entering the kitchen, I found five complete. They sat in front of the table as they seemed to be waiting for their food. My eyes widened when I saw who was cooking. She is wearing an apron while wearing a tight red dress. She put out the fire on the stove and served the food. She smiled as she served the five monkeys but when she looked up at me her reaction immediately changed. From the smile it frowned. Because of her sudden change of reaction, the five monkeys also looked at me.

“Oh, it’s you, Missy.” Smiling Sid said. “Let’s eat together, come.” Sid invited me to sit.

“I do not want to.” I refused while still looking at Ferries.

“Come here and eat, Wendy. Come sit beside me.” Louis said. This guy, I can’t understand what he really wants to call me. Sometimes he calls me Maxine or Max, sometimes he calls me Wendy. Goodness!

“No thanks, maybe later. The food might have poison.” I speak.

Ferries raised an eyebrow, probably offended by what I said, “If you’re the only one eating, I really wouldn’t hesitate to poison your food.”

“Well, just dream of me eating your food because that will never happen.” I answered. You think I’m going to lose? Hmp! Never!

Byron sighed, “Are you going to argue again? We’re in front of the dinner table, oh!”

“How did you know they were fighting?” Sid asked Byron.

“Giles just told me.” Byron replied and looked at Giles. “Hey, how did you know they were fighting?” He asked Sid again.

“Giles also told me a story,” Sid replied simply.

Giles sighed, “Let’s just eat. Why are you fighting? Are you fighting for Alyn?”

My face immediately wrinkled and I immediately reacted, “Yuck!” I exclaimed.

I could see the darkening of Alyn’s vision when he saw and heard my reaction. Well, really. Yuck, really! I will never like him. Our behavior is no longer compatible, how else can our hearts be reconciled, right ?. My gosh!

“You react badly, Yanny. Super denial.” said Giles. I didn’t answer and just stared at him.

It’s up to them what they want to think. I hope they get poisoned with that food which is served by a devil! Pwe! That’s why the smell of cooking was good because someone else is cooking. I thought it was Louis cooking , it’s a good thing I didn’t get thrilled right away.

I sighed, I will eat later after they eat. Tsk. What is that woman doing here in the mansion again anyway? Is Alyn planning to get married with her, so he can always bring that woman here? The dress is short, the lips are super red as well as the cheeks! She might have thought she looked beautiful, but she didn’t know she looked more like a frog.

Brrr ~

I was holding my stomach when it rang. Argh! I’m hungry!
