Chapter 6:
7 More Little Bitchies
Let me tell you a story.
A story about me, in my second year of university.
Yup, that's right. I've been with Delphy for a year. This was our first... I couldn't believe I said this. This was our first anniversary of being "friends"?
It was a weird first year of uni-life. It was rough. It was tough. And I didn't think it would go worse, but it did.
"So, you're that one person who has many women chase after you, huh?"
That was when we met.
"Eh... who are you?"
"I'm Aquana Tiriteen, and I'm here seeking knowledge."
Aren't we all? This was a university after all.
"I know! This is a university! Stop thinking too frivolously! I know my stuff, idiot!"
... Did she just...
"I'm not reading your mind."
"Then, how...?"
"I'm just telepathically available."
"Telephat-the-what now?"
"In short, I'm great at reading someone's expression."
"... Sure. Yeah, we'll go with that."
I would be lying if I said I didn't see her cuteness. I mean, she looked so tiny, and her cheeks were chubby, too. I felt like I wanted to pinch it.
After those thoughts went around, she covered her cheeks and said, "Yeah, thanks. Now stop staring at me and answer my question!"
"What was your question again?"
"Are you the one..."
She got interrupted by Delphy, "Hey, darling! How are... Huh? You got ANOTHER new girl?!"
I was trying to calm this shit, "Delphy, don't conclude everything before you understand the situation...," but...
"I've got my answer. Come with me, you damn womanizer!"
What mess did I get into this time?
"You don't need to..."
"Shut up, whore! I'm talking to your man", she grabbed me and walked away.
I looked back at Delphy and saw that she had a shocked face. I gave her a sign saying, "I'm sorry", and then went away with this Aquana girl. She kept dragging me, even explicitly walking her way in front of my "bitchies". I saw Kiana drop her jaw. I saw Owari's eyes widen, and she also dropped her drink. I saw Kak Sabrina throw a sign language saying, "Are you in need of help?"
I responded, "Let me handle this on my own," using sign language as well.
She replied with a smile and a big thumbs up. She was such an angel, man. I just can't.
After a while, we finally arrived at the destination that she wanted us to be. Weirdly enough, it was not far from my house.
"Hmm..."
"Shut!" She put her right index finger into my mouth.
After a bit of time, I saw Elfy leave the boarding house. She took a turn to face us. She shouted, "Yo! I thought you had class this morning."
"Yeah, I thought so too."
"You're skipping class?"
... Did Elfy even see that my right hand was currently held by another girl?
"Didn't know you had another girl now. How many now? Six? Seven? No, wait, I lost count. It should be about four, right?"
God, I hope this convo finishes fast.
"I've seen enough. You really have many girls in your hands. You bastard. You're snatching people's chance to get the girl that they deserve. What did you do to get this attention?"
I was about to answer, but Elfy took the lead, "Nope. I just fell. He didn't do anything specific to me to get my attention. I don't know about the others, though."
"Are you a bitch?" I did not see that coming. Aqua threw that question at Elfy out of nowhere.
"Maybe... Maybe not."
"He called you a bitch, though."
I saw her face. She did not look happy.
"Hey, I never explicitly said that. What do you mean by that?"
"Really? 'She kept dragging me, even explicitly walking her way in front of my "bitchies"'. Does that ring a bell?"
... I thought she said she can't read minds.
"I don't. It's just that I'm telepathically available."
"Again! What does that mean?"
Elfy answered my question with a question, "Wait! Are you Aquana? The girl who can tell people that they were lying just by seeing their face?"
I was shocked that Elfy even knew that. Did I miss something? How come I never heard of her?
"The people online recorded me, and it went viral. Everyone kept on trying to get clicks, and I went around town."
"Dang, that must've been rough."
"Yeah, it was."
"'Was'?"
"I've been through it."
What a strong girl. She sounded very cool just then.
"Thank you."
Ok, I'm getting creep right now.
"Don't be! I still need you for my knowledge hunting."
"Wait! Where are you taking him?"
"I'm going to a place that prohibit to enter, only I can."
"Your grammer's suck."
"We're Indonesian. We aren't supposed to talk in English anyway. It's the author's decision to make us talk this way."
...
"Where are your thoughts?"
"Ah! I caught you red-handed. You do read my mind!"
"No, I do not."
...
"Ugh... this is annoying. We're leaving!"
...
"We're here!"
"Nice room you got here."
...
"Thanks for the seat and drink. Could we speed this up and get on with it?"
"Sure!"
...
"It's been an hour. I need to go to the campus now. I don't want to..."
"Wait!"
"Don't grab my hand like that! I don't want to."
"I know we talked for an hour, but please don't leave."
...
"Okay, that's that. We'll meet again sometime, Aqua."
"... I hate you."
YES! Finally, someone actually hates me. Don't become my bitchies, Aqua. I don't need more. Twelve is more than enough.
... Shit! She grabbed me again. Why do I need to have a thought right about now?
"Twe... lve...?"
"Eh... I..."
"TWELVE???!!!"
"Can I..?"
"TWWWEEEEEEELVEEEEE????????"
And thus, the knowledge hunter was tailing me for another year. Apparently, she just wanted to collect data from me because I'm the only one... narrating my journey (?)
I don't know, man. It was confusing. In fact, let me tell you something crazy. I'm telling you my story from THE FUTURE. How the fuck can she hear those?
"Because you are special."
Uwaaaa. Get out of my recording closet!
...
Seriously, man. What is up with these weirdo girls? I swear to God, I could never get any peace anywhere. It's wild that even in my peace time here, they could invade it, Weely Neely.
"Your name is Main Character. You should be proud getting that!"
Stop invading my private room, Aqua! It's creepy!
This knowledge seeker bitch was really getting on my nerves. Seriously.
"This is the time when you should continue the chapter. Click that next button at the bottom right there! You would see Uta meet her final girl in this book."
... What is she even talking about?
