One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Maxine’s Point of View

Alyn turned around after he picked up the ball that had hit my head earlier. Even before Byron could return, I got up to chase Alyn.

I was only a few steps away when I heard Sid’s loud shout, “Oh my ghad!”

I immediately turned around as my index finger covered my nostrils. The bleeding still doesn’t stop and Byron still doesn’t come.

“What the hell, bro?” Giles turned to Sid who was obviously surprised by Sid’s sudden shout. “What’s your problem?”

Sid turned to Giles as Sid pointed at me, “Missy…” his finger was trembling while pointing at me.

Giles and Louis turned to me and then looked back at Sid again, “What’s wrong with Wendy?” Louis asked obviously wondering.

“She’s bleeding, bro!” Sid replied that his eyes were still getting bigger.

“We know! We all saw that her nose was bleeding. Are you crazy?” Giles replied.

Sid nodded. My forehead is now furrowed, and I’m confused because of what Sid is up to, what’s the problem with this one? Could it be that a soul has joined his body so he is like that? Is he possessed?

“No! That’s not what I’m referring to,” Sid stood up. He approached me, grabbed my shoulders and forcibly turned me around, “Look, she’s bleeding!”

What?

I removed Sid’s hand from my shoulder and faced them again. I raised an eyebrow as I faced Sid, “What are you talking about? My nose is in front of you and then you turn me around, is your brain in your foot?”

Oh my gosh! Here we are again, I thought we wouldn’t argue anymore. Gosh. I intentionally raised my voice to Sid again. What if we all argue again? Aish! Not my fault, okay? Suddenly my head got hot. How about that? I was already facing them and then he forced me to turned my back on them before he said that I’m bleeding. I’m already infected with Sid, my head suddenly heated up and changed my mood, maybe it’s because of this hot weather.

“Wait,” Louis entered the conversation, “Can you turn around again?”

I crossed my arms over my chest, “And why would I do that?” I immediately untied the cross of my arm when I felt blood coming out of my nose.

“Because there’s…” Louis seemed hesitant to follow what he was going to say but he continued in the end, “… blood on your back.”

My brows furrowed, “What? How can there be blood on my back?”

“Maybe you sat on a nail on the bench!” Sid growled, “Damn, I told you we need an ambulance!”

“Fucking hell,” Giles wiped his face before approaching me, “Are you okay? You’re not in pain?”

I shook my head and felt a tremor in my chest. Oh my gosh! Am I really bleeding? Aren’t they kidding? Where is the blood?

“W-Where’s the blood?” I asked.

“On your buttocks,” Sid replied quickly. “W-We need to call an ambulance,” he looked around as if looking for something, his confusion was obvious because of his actions, he was restless. “Damn it! Where’s my phone?”

“Hey!” Louis touched Sid, “Chill, bro.” Then Louis turned to me, “Do you have a period right now?”

“H-Huh? P-Period, what?” Damn. I’m fucking confused! “I-I-I-I don’t know,” I replied as I continues shaking my head. I could no longer look directly into their eyes. It’s embarrassing! What if I really have a period? And heck, why don’t I know? No warning sign was even given!

“What? You don’t know?” Giles asked. I don’t know if he was worried or if he just want crying.

“Tardy!”

I turned to where the voice was coming from, I saw Byron running while hugging two rolls of tissue. What the heck?

When Byron got closer he handed me a roll of tissue, “Here,”

I took it and ripped it off to put on my nostrils. Then I turned to the three again, “What should I do?” I asked.

I feel so nervous now. Why do they need to be the first to know about my period? Arg! So embarrassing!

“Why are you asking us? You’ve never had your period before?” Giles asked, confused.

“No, I haven’t!” I answered and seemed like I wanted to feed on the ground.

“Okay, what’s happening?” Byron looked around at the three of us, “I was gone for a while and I was already late for the news?”

“Damn, bro! She’s loosing too much blood!” Sid exclaimed while covering his mouth.

What the heck? This stupid Sid making me feel more nervous! I can now hear the sound of my heart beat.

“Huh? Who?” Byron asked that until now he still didn’t know what was going on.

“Okay, guys chill. Okay? Chill.” Louis trying to calm us down, “Maybe we have napkin in GH’s room, I’ll go there and look for it.”

“Bro! GH is not a girl!” Giles commented.

I held my lower abdomen and bent a little, “Ugh, it hurts.” I complained.

“Why?” Byron asked still confused, “Oh my gosh!” He covered his mouth in an instant even though I haven’t said a word yet, “Is Tardy pregnant?”

“What the heck?!” I exclaimed and hit him on his nape. Oh my gosh! This is insane! “You know what? I’ll just buy at the convenience store.”

“No way!” Sid stopped me, “Are you out of your mind? You’re bleeding as hell and your lower abdomen is aching! Damn, bro. She’s having a contractions!”

“What ?! W-Wait,” Byron groped something in the back pocket of his shorts, “Shoot! Where is- oh, it’s here,” he said before he took out his phone, “Hello, 9-1-1?Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

What? 9-1-1?

Giles snatched Byron’s phone, “Hello? Yes, our princess is bleeding… There’s blood coming out of her vag*na! Damn, we need help… I’m serious! Why are you laughing at me?!”

Who’s not gonna laugh? You, damn idiot! I grabbed the phone and turned off the call. I was about to open my mouth when someone suddenly hugged me… or not? Someone tied a jacket around my hips. Who?

“Go buy, dummy,” the guy from my back said.

I turned my head to see who it was and I was dumbfounded when I saw who it is.

“What? Are you touched?” Then he moved a little away from me.

“I-In your dreams!” I defended and tightened the tie of the jacket around my hips.

I was about to turn around and start walking when Louis suddenly asked, “Where are you going, Wendy?”

“Right! Where are you going? You might bleed on the way!” Sid concluded, his face was already pale.

“Stay here, I’ll buy it,” Louis insisted.

“No,” Alyn interrupted just as Louis and I were about to pass, “She will go with me.”

I looked at him. Confused, “What?” But before I could even refuse he started pulling me. Like, what the heck is his problem? “Hey, could you stop pulling me? My wrist hurts!” I complained.

Thank God, he stopped. He turned to me for a moment before he pulled me again. Is this for real? When we got to the front of his car he immediately opened the door for me. He really pushed me to let me in. Look at his attitude! Agh, I feel like I want to wipe my period on his face. He turned and got into the driver’s seat. He started the engine instantly and drove the car.

“Tsk,” I clicked my tongue. I crossed my arms over my chest and looked outside the window. This is so damn awkward!

I feel like I’m running out of breath. The air inside this car was so awkward. My gosh! He was just quiet and looking seriously in front. Another awkward thing here is my period. I also can’t help but be shy, for sure, Alyn’s jacket is already covered in blood.

I simply turned to Alyn but I also immediately looked back outside, “Eherm,” I faked clearing my throat to get his attention, “I will wash your jacket and will give it back to you, okay?” I said while still looking outside.

“You can have it,” he answered.

Woah, does he hate me? I will wash his jacket before I return it, then he will say I can have it? Wow, really!

I just didn’t answer. If that’s what he wants, then fine. I’ll just have his jacket and will make it rag!
