I'm Just a Figurant
[POV Alex] Ch 85 - Meet The Plain

At first I was unaware of its existence. He's like a transparent creature in my class. No one thinks or cares about it. I didn't care about him at first either, until I finally looked into those innocent eyes.

"Hey, borrow type X dong." His face looks nervous. He seems hard to speak. He nodded his head and handed the type X to me.

I saw his face at a glance. Nothing interesting on his face. All in all, she was a mediocre girl. People would not bother to see her twice when crossing the street with her. It's just the eyes behind those glasses... Those eyes are pulling me.

Reminds me of the eyes of a cat abandoned by its master. Plain, fragile and ask for pity. I can't ignore it.

I tried to get her to have a conversation, but it seemed that the girl was too shut up. It was hard to get him to open his mouth.

All right, looks like this girl doesn't like me that much. Okay, enough to get here. It's stupid that he doesn't like me. I just ignore it, just like any other friend.

I enjoy my days like a teenager in general. School, playing futsal, hanging out with friends, or just going out.

I have a beautiful girlfriend. We are from the same High School. According to people, we were a very compatible couple. Many of my friends were jealous of me for successfully courting her. It became a kind of pride for me.

To be honest, at first I wasn't very interested in Diana. Okay, she's beautiful, but that's just her charm. There's nothing else.

I was dating her because of the insistence of my friends. It was kind of a challenge for me to conquer. And I managed to do that easily.

Without Us knowing, the relationship continued until We High School. We enjoyed the relationship properly. Go on a date, eat at the cafe, watch a movie, or accompany her to the salon. Doing little things together. Without me noticing, I'm getting used to Diana's presence.

Diana often took me to her house, and vice versa. We know each other's parents. Our parents responded positively to our relationship. As if to bless us if later this relationship continues to a more serious level.

Diana was a spoiled figure, wanting to always be the center of attention and disliking when anyone else got more attention from her. Maybe because it comes from a family of being and has a level above average to form its character to be like that. Overall, I can still accept his disposition.

Just like teenage boys in general, of course in dating I try things that are curious. For example, how it feels to hug and kiss with the opposite sex. Things that make me curious I found the answer in Diana. He's like my mentor, no matter where he learns, I don't care.

Today our school conducted an exam. I know that girl is a child who does not stand out in any field. I'm quite worried about his future at this school.

I looked back. Apparently in the exam this time he was sitting behind me. I looked at his confused face. It looks like a stranded kitten. I want to take her home and take care of her, what a funny thought.

"You're done?" my many. The cat shook his head with a face. Either have to laugh or feel sorry to see it that way.

Well, plain-eyed little cat, I decided to help you. Next time you have to get value with your own efforts.

I wrote the answer on a small piece of paper and gave it to her. The test went on as usual. When the test was over, the plain cat shuffled my shoulder and gave me a piece of paper back. Before I could react, the cat had already gone away. I smiled reading the paper.

Thanks, yes, for helping me.

Is the cat starting to interact with me? Hem, interesting too.

During the following days I remained consistent in helping him until the exam was over. On the last day of the exam, I started talking to her again.

"Whose name?" my many.

"I'm-I'm Kansha..." Hem, his name is Khansa huh. A good name too.

"Where are you from Junior High?"

"SMP X."

"Where's that?" many confused. I really don't know what SMP is. Khansa tried to explain to me where the school was, I just nodded my head. Pretending to understand, but not at all.

"Are you alone or are there other friends?"

"Oh.just fine."

"Why-deservedly?"

"You always seem to be alone." I'm sure why he's always alone. He became the only child of the Junior High.

"Lex, let's go to the cafeteria." Suddenly a group of friends came. I don't want to have to follow them. Today it is enough to arrive here interview with the plain cat, tomorrow continue again.

That day I went home alone. As usual, Diana refused to come home with me if I only brought a motorbike. The reason was hot, afraid of his black skin. Okay, it's natural that he thinks that way. Everywhere a beautiful girl will always take care of her body, right? No exception with Diana.

Actually my parents provided me with a shuttle car. If I wanted to, my parents would have allowed me to bring my own car. But do what? No use either.

It's better to bring your own motor. Especially now, when I can go home alone. I could be free to come here. I can stop by a comic rental, play futsal or just learn to hone my guitar skills.

By nightfall, I returned home greeted by Mother President's lecture.

"Back of night hold Al. Where the hell have you been? Where's Diana? Why didn't you bring her here?"

"Actually Mama's son is me or him anyway? The question Diana kept. Take him as Mama's son."

"She was beautiful, Al. Reminds Mama of her youth. Pinter really you're looking for Al's girlfriend. He's Adrian's son, right?"

"Kok Mama knows?"

"You know, your info is a lot. Pak Adrian's family is on par with ours. Diana is beautiful too. When are you going to introduce us Al?"

"I mean Mama?"

"Yes recognize Mama Papa to prospective besan. You should tie Diana Al up. The hunt's taken away by her man."

I shook my head. I really don't understand the way my President thinks. I'm only 16, but my mom talked about this? Incredibly funny.

I don't listen to Mama's words anymore. I went up to the second floor, went to my hiding place.

"Al, if you don't want to let your sister tie her up! Mama is whatever, want you or your important brother immediately tie Diana Al! You hear Mama talking Al?"

I don't want to listen to my unreasonable words. I choose to cover my ears with headphones and listen to music out loud.

I don't know why all of a sudden those innocent eyes popped into my mind. I shook my head. Removing those eyes from my mind. But instead of being erased, his figure even more appeared in my mind. Her nervousness, confusion, innocence, innocence danced in my mind. Makes me wonder and think, what does this all mean?

"Cat, I think I should take care of you."
