*Ring*
The school bell rang.
The second class ended...
Isaac stood up and took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing heartbeat. He glanced at Amanda, who was taking sneaky glances at Isaac with teary eyes.
He sighed and left the classroom; he took one glance behind him and saw Oliver and his friends leaving immediately.
But they didn't go after him. They went in the other direction, and they seemed to be in a hurry.
Isaac walked down the stairs and appeared in the lounge area of the school building. He went straight towards his locker and grabbed his jacket from there.
He put it on and instantly felt the coldness disappearing.
This jacket was one of his mother's creations, and it was specially made for Isaac. The coat can perfectly nullify the cold and make Isaac feel more energetic.
He put his hands on the jacket's pocket and strolled out of the school building. Instead of going the usual route towards the yard, he turned right and walked a small path, which leads towards the Temple of the Confessions.
The Temple of Confessions was behind the High School Building, and the wall of the building had hundreds of heart symbols with different letters.
Each heart is a sign of successful confession, and the letters are the pair's initials.
Isaac entered the Temple of Confessions and glanced at the hundreds of hearts with a heavy look.
He looked around him and looked at the Temple of Confessions with a pained face. It was the same sight he saw, only moments before his incident.
The Temple of Confessions had a small frozen lake with benches surrounding it.
The frozen lake is usually used as a skating rink, which is mainly used by couples.
It is mainly used during Christmas and Valentine's. The couples are always excited about it, while the single ones cry tears of blood.
Being able to skate in the rink is usually a goal of many young men and women, but they need a partner for it.
That's why. Christmas and Valentine's are days when the number of confessions has explosive growth.
The memories will last their lifetime, and it has been Isaac's dream to skate on the frozen lake once in his lifetime, but the chances seem very low.
'Without Oliver... Maybe Amanda and I would have...' Isaac shook his head. It is too late for him to think about it.
It is in the past. He could try to date with Amanda, but it would only end up in heartbreak, and it wouldn't be fair for Amanda when his feelings aren't the same anymore.
And Isaac isn't desperate to date anyone.
If he one day dates someone... It would be someone he loves.
*Crunch*
His ears perked up as he heard a familiar sound of snow getting stepped on, which caused a familiar crunching sound.
He snapped his head towards the sound and felt his heart racing without stopping. A group of over 10 men with ski masks appeared out of nowhere.
Their clothes were also covered in some kind of black robes, which covered their school outfits.
The man who was leading them cracked his knuckles, and Isaac saw the eyes hiding behind the mask. It showed the similar coldness he felt from Oliver.
Isaac watched as the men with ski masks surrounded him. Their tall bodies made Isaac look very tiny and weak in front of their surprise.
''Hey, bastard.'' One of the ski masks said, with his voice being deeper than before. He was purposely deepening his tone, so Isaac couldn't find out who he was.
Whitelock family is influential, and they would find out who they were from simple clues.
''Yes?'' Isaac said with a cold voice, which surprised many.
''Hmph.'' The man with ski mask snorted and said, ''Greetings from Amanda. She felt disgusted by your staring, so she ordered us to punish you.''
Isaac nodded. It was the exact words he heard last time.
It was why he hated Amanda so much, but now that he thinks about it, it was foolish for him to believe their words.
He also told his parents that Amanda was the one who did it, but surprisingly... They didn't believe him.
It was the first time that his parents didn't believe him, and that caused another shock on him. Only Alice believed his words blindly, but one of the reasons was her hate for Amanda.
She always felt that Isaac was about to get stolen by Amanda and that caused her to have long-lasting hate towards her.
The men with ski masks felt shocked that Isaac didn't seem to be surprised.
Isaac turned his head towards the man who had just talked.
''Oliver, was our friendship nothing but a lie?'' He asked with a cold look.
The men with ski masks widened their eyes in shock.
Especially Oliver. He felt his heart racing.
''No need to lie.'' Isaac clenched his fist, ''I know it's you.''
''Hmph!'' Oliver snorted and threw the ski mask off from his face. His was morphed into extreme anger.
''Why?'' Isaac asked with a pained look.
''You stole Amanda from me!'' He screamed, ''I was her childhood friend! I was always with her, and then you showed up!'' He clutched his chest in pain and screamed, ''It was all about Isaac, Isaac, Isaac, for fuck sake! The world doesn't center around you!''
''Oliver...'' One of his friends said with a shaky tone, ''H-He knows your identity, and it will be easy to find ours.''
Oliver snorted and said with a cold tone, ''Let's kill him! Simple!''
His friends gasped and felt that this became much more serious than it was supposed to be.
Isaac then looked towards the other men with ski masks, ''And what about you guys? What did I ever do to you guys?''
''You are an eyesore.'' One of Oliver's friends said and clenched his fists, ''Having you gone would make me feel satisfied.''
Most of the men with ski masks nodded.
Isaac felt pain, ''I see...''
Oliver took the first step forwards and chuckled, ''Maybe Amanda will need a shoulder to cry once you are dead.''
Isaac glared at him coldly, and suddenly a long weapon appeared in his hand.
''Eh?'' Oliver widened his eyes in shock, but then he felt a sharp blade touching his forehead while a barrel was pointing straight at his face.
''H-How?'' Everyone around them looked shocked, like their reality had turned upside down.
''Even though you are not real...'' Isaac sighed and put his finger on the trigger, ''This does give me satisfaction.''
After those words... He squeezed the trigger.
*BANG*
