Primary: The embarrassment it would bring

[ 2.19 ]

R Y E N N E  A T S T E L L I

Year 12

"Ryenne!" I heard a cheerful voice call me just as I stepped foot out of the academy gates.

I stopped in my tracks and turned to face Litheon who had his arm slung around Xael's shoulders. He, unlike before, was now sporting a bright smile and excitement radiated off of him. As he walked, he had a little hop to his step.

I just watched, half amused and half curious.

When the duo came to a stop before me, Litheon asked, "Guess what I'm gonna be doing this spring?"

I could only watch him in wonder. Did he finally decide to take up another hobby other than annoying people?

"What are you going to be doing this spring?" I asked monotonously, causing him to sigh exasperatedly.

"I said guess."

I stared him.

One. Two—"Leon...just tell me what."

The boy sent me a glare before conceding.

"I decided that I would learn to play a sport in the spring!" He exclaimed. Almost immediately, I could see stars jumping out of his eyes as he threw a fist up in the air. "Now, I'll be able to go to the athletic training center with you both all throughout the rest of spring!"

I could almost hear him scream "Huzzah" in the middle of the lobby. Oh, the embarrassment it would bring.

"Ah...haha..." I feigned a laugh as I glanced over to see Xael's face that was filled with dread.

"Well," I start off as I find myself smiling in relief. "I actually won't be here all spring, so it will just be you and Xael at the center."

As I spoke, I could feel Xael's desperate eyes, but I ignored his pleas as I faced Litheon's disappointed yet curious eyes.

"Why? Where are you going?"

"I'll be going to the countryside. Ron (Ryon), Yoon (Ryun), and I are going to be undergoing training from the elders." I explained.

"Oh...But aren't you passionate about Jiu Jitsu?"

I blinked. Then I blinked again. What a shocking question to have received.

"...No..?"

Litheon tilted his head in astonishment.

"Really? I would've thought you were since you and Xael go so often."

I could only let out an awkward laugh as I shrugged the question away. Wanting to avoid Xael's gaze that said "I'm telling Instructor Irold", I took a glance behind me and saw that my family car has arrived. Turning back, I give Litheon a pat on the shoulder.

"I have to go now, but I'm glad you're investing your time into something other than foreign languages and statistics. You were getting a bit out of shape, too..."

I notice Litheon's facial expression changing rapidly, and wanting to avoid any further delay of escape, I start jogging towards my family car as I waved goodbye.

"See you guys next week, then!"
