Today Sam woke up and checked his phone, he had a text from Annie which said

« Mom took Em to school with Rika, you can pick her up later directly at school.»

´They really thought of everything, what a nice family' he thought.

He had to get ready for school too, he went to take a shower, then he did breakfast. It was the first time in very long that he did only one share of food, then he dressed up and left for school.

Today the weather was cloudy and cold, the sky was dark grey even though the sun was already up, it seemed as it was just about to rain. Sam arrived to university before it started to rain, and went into the classroom. Monday morning was occupied by 4 hours of psychology in an amphitheater, Sam really felt like it was a loss of time but he couldn't stop yet as he wasn't sure of the system's reliability, who knew if the system would shut down one day or disappear without warning ? That was why for the moment he kept going to class until he accumulated enough skill books, when he will have a level 5 skill book wouldn't he be at the same rank as those world class singers ? He won't need the system anymore to live a good life, of course if he could keep the system forever that would be the best.

As Sam was a bit early, the class started to fill bit by bit, after a few minutes came in Eric ; first thing he did was to warmly greet Sam. Yesterday's time spent together and the incident at the end of the day had made them closer.

« Hey Sam ! You look handsome today... »

He said while checking him and nodding his head, Sam was wearing an outfit they had bought yesterday ; a denim jacket and a white T-shirt under it, a simple jeans, a pair of boots. His outfit was very simple but it fitted him perfectly as he was tall and fit, girls stole more glances at him now, before he was just a random handsome guy wearing old and tattered clothes but now he was a magnet to girl's eyes.

« Hey Eric, I always looked handsome, how come you realize it just now ? »

Sam replies jokingly, he wasn't the type to be arrogant but he was definitely aware that he was good looking.

« Stop being so sure of yourself, you still have a long way to go to look as handsome as me ! »

He said while taking a pose with his hand under his chin and the other arm supporting the first one.

He looked really clumsy doing it so Sam couldn't help but laugh at him.

« Hahaha, what is this pose ? Stop this it make you look so stupid. »

At this moment came in two guys, they were the two underlings that followed Eric when he used to bully Sam, one of them didn't have anymore front teeth and the second one didn't have any visible problem but had gotten 2 broken ribs when he got hit by Sam.


Both of them looked vehemently at Sam, they wanted to have revenge but didn't dare attack him in front so every time they saw him they just threw mean gazes and ignored him, they also cut their relation with Eric as they couldn't be friend with their enemy's friend.

They both went to sit in the front while Sam and Eric were sitting in the middle of the room, their names were Tony and Leo, they had met Eric last year when they were freshmen. At first it was both of them who bullied Sam and then Eric met them and he joined in the fun, later Eric took the lead and he became the head of the group. Both of them weren't of the same familial background as Eric, actually they both came from the « hoods ». They had grown up in these places were drug deals, murders, arsons were common occurrence so they didn't have any remorse for bullying someone, they even felt that Sam had made them lose face that day.

Today they were planning to take their revenge

« Yo Leo, let's think of something else. We can't beat him so we should do something behind his back. »

« I know we can't beat him but what can we do... »

« Let's think about it... didn't he date Sophia for years ? If we capture her we might use her as an hostage. »

« Impossible, I don't think he care much about her and she's Eric's girlfriend, we can't provoke Eric but you reminded me of something. Didn't he have a little sister ? We can use her. »

« Fine but do you know what she looks like, her name, her school... ? »

« Haha don't worry, she's actually in the same school and same class as my little brother, once I went to pick him up because my mom was busy and saw Sam picking up his sister. »

« Then what's the plan ? We can't kidnap her in front of the school right ? »

« We can try picking her up by saying we are her brother's friends but I don't know if she'll follow us... »

« Yeah let's try this, we are not losing anything anyway. »

Later that afternoon it was the end of class, a student from the same class as Sam went to see him, it was an almost invisible guy ; he had no friends, he was normal looking even though he was a bit overweight and was also someone that was bullied.

« Hey Sam, before you leave I think the English teacher wanted to speak with you, she said you could find her after class in the teacher's room. »

« Oh Thanks. »

Sam nodded, what he didn't know was that this guy got beaten up this morning to make Sam lose time. Meanwhile Tony and his friend got on a motorbike and sped toward the school, when they arrived they first hid until Tony's mom left as she also came to pick up his little brother at the same time, then only he went toward Em's class.

« Hi miss Rose, long time no see. »

« Tony ? Your little brother was just taken by your mother you can still catch up to them they are not too far away. »

« Haha, I'm not here for my brother I'm helping a classmate, I'm here to pick up Emma to help Sam. He will be busy until this evening and he couldn't let her wait in school. »

« You're right he called to say that he'll be late, then I'll trust you with her. »

During the conversation Em was looking curiously at Tony, at the moment he appeared like a kind big brother as he was smiling warmly and discussing with teacher Rose, the reasons why teacher Rose didn't doubt him was because she knew him, he always appeared as a well educated and kind young man in front of her and Sam had called to say that he'd be late.

Tony took Em by the hand and went toward where Leo was waiting, he was actually very gentle with her which made her comfortable, it was obvious that he had experience with kids as he had 2 little sisters on top of his little brother. When he saw them arriving Leo took a bit of distance and called Sam

« Hey Sam ? Leo here. »

« What do you want ? And how did you get my number ? »

« Don't worry about the small things, I needed to tell that there is no use in going to your sister's school. We picked her up before you. »

At this moment Sam understood what was happening, he closed his eyes so nobody could see the rage inside his eyes but anybody could see his chest heaving continuously, he was fine being bullied but these guys went to his little sister instead of him.

« Where are you ? »

He said while trying to repress his anger, he couldn't anger them as they had his sister, one misstep and she could be in danger.

« Abandoned house behind the school, come alone. »

And he hung up without anymore words.

When Sam was a few hundred meters from the meeting point a voice in his head said
