"Beam! Open this door! I will explain! Beam!"

There's a series of loud bang on the door as Forth continuously pounds it. I don't know how long he's been doing it. I lost track of the time as I try to ignore him.

Is he trying to break my door?

"I will be breaking this damn door if you wouldn't open it!"

Yep. That's my answer.

"Break the door and I'll break your damn face!" I shout back.

No one can threaten me when I am pissed off.

The blood in my vein is singeing of violence, the use of physical force to harm someone and to damage property. That great destructive force or energy is seeping to my finest system making me want to challenge all the gangster on the streets, ufc, and muay thai fighters to a combat.

But, the sudden solemn and tenderness in the offender's voice changes the course of my ballistic mind (Why do I speak this way anyway? -_-").

"Beam. I am sorry. I really am. Please, let's talk."

Heck?

He's now thumping on the door weakly as if he has lost all his strengths.

I am being bitten off by my conscience once again. It's condemning me for being so harsh with Forth just because I saw him with a woman.

What if she was his sister? Or cousin? Or a long lost relative? Why am I acting like a jealous wife... Oh, wait, it doesn't sound right. Please let me rephrase it... Why am I acting like a possessive bitch...still doesn't sound right... A sulky maiden?? ... Damn it! Nothing goes smooth with this wayward mind.

*sigh

I just walk toward the door, not to open it but to sit with my back leans on it.

"Don't fucking pound on the door. I am leaning on it," I say. It becomes still and quite. "I don't want to open the door... But you can explain everything. E.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.... I will listen."

I can hear a rustling sound on the other side as he, perhaps, rests his back.

"You will?" His weak voice is pricking my chest. You're cruel, Beam!

"Yeahhh. I will. I promise."

"I love you."

".........................."

"Beam?"

"........................."

"Beam?"

"F-Fuck you! Is it how you will explain it?!" I growl the moment I regain my senses which temporarily shut down when I heard those three words.

I think, I am hyperventilating.

I put my hand on my chest as I try to take a deep breath through my nose, and slowly exhale through my purse mouth.

I hear him chuckles. I bang on the door to stop him.

"Sorry. I just couldn't help myself saying those words. I want you to know how much I love you that I wouldn't do anything to break your hea..."

"Fine! Fine! Just get to the pointttt!!"

"Okay... This morning, my hazing team had an emergency meeting. We just found out that the admin wants us to cancel our last hazing activities which are the flag capturing event and our overnight outing. A lot of parents has bombarded the office with all their complains and strong desire to abolish the sotus system after what happened to Ming. They don't think it's still necessary to continue it in this generation...
