LOVE AND SELFISHNESS

PART 3

"Erika, let's accompany me to a birthday party," invited Mika who suddenly came to Erika's house was neat with a red dress combined with a black skirt and hair bunned with maroon flops.

Without Mika realizing that Erika really hates parties. For him, there is a gathering place of various characters that he does not like. They are in a race to wear their best clothes. He said, someone will not be considered to a party if they do not wear party-style clothes such as kebaya, dress, and others. Likewise with bags and shoes, must be in harmony with clothes and pants. And Erika hated such a rule. It must be this and that, was a troublesome thing for him. She also doesn't like to dress up. Would a party not take place if one only wore t-shirts and casual shoes? No, right? The important thing is to be present. That was Erika's view of the party.

"No, I don't like such events" Erika replied with a jutek.

"Erika, come on dong! What's the trouble, anyway? Stay with me,'kan, go there," persuaded Mika.

"A lot of people there, right? Especially men," asked Erika to make Mika chuckle.

"Geez, Erika, the name is also a feast, so obviously there are people there from various circles. How you are, anyway. It's weird" Mika explained.

"Then, sorry that I can't keep you company!" erika replied firmly.

"Why?"

"I will only accompany you if there are no men at the party and there are not many people" Erika replied again by sticking to her silly stance.

"Ah, stop. I'll just go alone. It's hard to talk to you, you weirdo" Mika said.

Erika was used to being called weird everywhere. To him, it was common.

At the time of lunch break at school, as usual Erika selfish towards the roof of the school. I hope there are no more bullies. Although the head of OSIS has introduced himself, but Erika has forgotten her name. It's hard to remember names, just to know faces. And for him remembering every name would only make a full head of memory.

"Why are you having lunch here? Don't eat with your friends?" ask Yagami who suddenly appeared.

"I don't have any friends."

"Haah? We're really friends."

"You who? How dare you talk to me that way."

"I'm Yagami from class 2-A. You must have forgotten my name, right, Erika-chan. I know, you are that type of person, you forget my name, but still remember with this handsome face of mine," Yagami replied as she winked at Erika. But the egotist just put on a flat and indifferent face.

"Why do you know my name?"

"I've been watching you since school, but you haven't noticed me at all. Even now I live near your house. You are sadistic, cook your own neighbors do not know. I moved there a week ago," continued the young man with the pointed nose and clean face. His body was a little full and tall with a smile.

"I'm sorry then. Because I don't care about anyone around me, and prefer to be alone than with others. Yes, I want to go back to class," replied Erika while fanning her skirt with her left hand. Then turn the body towards the roof door of the school without caring for Yagami who still wants to talk to him. It doesn't matter how many times people talk and approach it. His determination to remain unanimous will not be affected by the words and gentle demeanor of those who pretend to be kind. Caring for others will only hurt you. That was the understanding he had in his life. In accordance with the words of the anime that was ever watched.

"She's very attractive" muttered Yagami smiling.

Erika is very hateful to men, for her they will only take advantage of the kindness of women and leave her after getting another woman. For men, women are just a game and a stopover when he is tired and single again. To Erika, men had no feelings at all. Already have a girlfriend or wife, still teasing and chat-chatan with other girls.

Erika's days passed without friends except her mother. He began to distrust men since his father left his mother for another woman. He could not help but cry as his mother tried to hold his father in front of the house when he was about to leave the house with the woman of his choice. At that time, Erika felt that her family was fine, without her realizing it was her father betraying the sincerity of his love with his mother. The man left them without a sense of responsibility as the head of the household. Even leaving without feeling the slightest guilt. Erika's heart sliced every time she remembered the incident.

Since then, he has assumed that all men have the same traits.

Every Saturday morning, sports lessons are held along with the rest of the classes. Erika wore a sports shirt that had been shared since she first entered school. Then to the sports field. This time it's a volleyball game. All students and students gather together and find their own group of friends. Various sounds and ball reflections filled the entire field. Erika prefers to train on the sidelines and does not want to join the others. According to him, self-training is more free to bring out talent without rules and criticism from others.

"Hey, Erika. Why are you alone there? Come join the others!" take Yagami closer to Erika.

"No way, training with them will only reduce my muscles and energy" he replied with a cynical look and a sour face.

Suddenly, the burly and fit man grabbed Erika very tightly from the front, so covering her tiny body made her unable to look forward. And it turns out that Yagami is protecting her from the reflection of six battered volleyballs out of the field that are suddenly heading towards her.

"YAGAMIIII," various shouts from students in the field who saw the incident. Erika is curious about Yagami. His eyes suddenly closed and drowned on his shoulders. All the students ran towards him. Same with the sports teacher.

"Yagami, get up," said one of the male students who helped embrace Yagami. He patted Yagami on the face and looked at Erika flatly.

"Sir, he fainted," said the slightly brownish-yellow-haired student.

"Take him to the infirmary!" pinta sports teacher.

"Good, sir."

The young man with a slender body and white skin took Yagami to the health room assisted by other students.

"Hey, loner, just be careful if anything happens to Yagami. We won't forgive you" the girls of Yagami fans snapped on the field pointing at Erika.

"Why the hell, Yagami helped that girl, that sucks," said another girl.

"You have to take responsibility" they said as if they were judging Erika. Erika looked at him with a flat face.

"Why should I be responsible? I'm not wrong. Blame him for letting his body get a lot of balls. That ball is also from you. And I didn't ask her to protect me" Erika replied.

Their faces showed angry expressions and were about to hit Erika. One of the hands stopped them. And it turns out it was Kayo, the jolly girl who had many friends.

"You guys don't be a vigilante, let me handle this matter," with just a sentence, the girls left Misaki and Kayo. They were afraid of Kayo. Because, he said Kayo's father is an expert in the field of karate and he has mastered the manager. Erika also remembered the memories of her father who was also a karate champion. He taught various self-defense techniques before leaving Erika and her mother.

"Why are you defending me?" erika looked at Kayo. Kayo just smiled.

"I'm not defending you, but I'm defending Yagami. The one I love" he replied.

"Love?" erika muttered with a smile. His silly thoughts began to pervade. Kayo had chosen the wrong man. Kayo just stared at Erika for a moment then left the field along with the others. And it turns out he visited Yagami in the infirmary.

"Are you okay?" tanya Kayo grabbed Yagami's hand. But Yagami immediately covered his hands with a blanket there.

"Yes. Is he okay?" ask Yagami back.

Kayo put on a furious face.

"Who? The loner girl? besides why are you helping her too. Our plan to work on it failed."

"So this was you? I don't think it out."

"Why? We just want to teach the arrogant girl a little lesson" Kayo replied in a loud tone. Yagami just stared at him flat.

"Erika, that's her name. Can you leave me alone? I want an istrahat," pinta Yagami.

Kayo came out very irritated.

"Si girl, just watch out for you.I'll make you suffer for getting Yagami's attention.aaarrgght..."

While in the health room, Yagami smiled widely with a blushing face imagining the face of Jutek Erika.

"She is very cute when angry.mmm.." murmured Yagami.
