“At a lunch break in three days, Anton just walking out of class, Anton was surprised to see that Dolores White was standing in the corridor and waiting for him. “Ms. White, are you coming for me?” He asked.
Dolores rolled her eyes and said, “Do I know anyone else here?”
Anton smiled wryly. Looking at the huge ground gathered here, he went towards and left these words, “Why not walking and chatting on the playground?”
All the students were in the canteen and left the usual lively playground empty. Anton and Dolores walked side by side on the running track.
Dolores broke the silence, “Do you have any friends?”
“Anton was confused only a few moments and responded, “Of course.” “I mean friends who can talk everything to each other instead of your members. Well, you talk to them something personal?” Dolores questioned.
At this moment, Anton got really confused.” Jasper and Carl and other members were really his friends, but not to the extent of confidants just because they are too like a ruffian to talk some profound questions.” Sinking into this thought, he remained silent for some time. Dolores smiled at the scene, “I ’m willing to be your confidants, of course, this should base on your desire.”
Her eyes looked so sincere, which greatly touched Anton’s heart. “Indeed, there are a group of members around him. However, if a person to be called confidants, then nobody deserved it, which make him felt lonely.” “Thanks, and I’m honored to make such an excellent friend with you.” He said sincerely.
“Dolores felt excited to hear that and said, “So you agree?” Anton nodded and joked, “I’m just afraid Ms. White will mind my dull.”
“Dolores put out her hands to Anton and smiled, “We have been friends from now on. If you have any problem just come to me and I will help you. After all, I'm older and more experienced than you.”
“Anton said no words, just holding Dolores's small hands, enjoying the tenderness which reminds him of their interaction that day in the painting room. A sudden breeze made his slightly agitated mind got calm. He let go of her hands.
“Dolores’s face blushed, so she changed the subject immediately, “I still underestimate you that I can’t believe that you have broken down Black Dragon Gang in such a short time. Now you are a real bully in our school even the principal doesn't dare to punish you arbitrarily!”
Anton didn’t agree with it and he explained, “No matter how powerful in No. 1 High School, it is just a school. This is not what I want. No matter how famous our school is, its essence is just a school, a place for study.”
“Such a big ambition! You have already mastered a big family with hundreds of members now, and what more else do you want?” Dolores asked.
Actually, Anton has ever thought of it ending with no idea. Now, this question was mentioned again, he could only say, “I don’t know what I really want. Just the current situation can’t meet my needs and only to look for better development.”
Dolores began to worry about him, “You have subjected the whole school to you, and more possibilities only happen in society. “I do have this plan, and it has been in progress.” Anton nodded.
Seeming to get heated by his words, Dolores caught hold of Anton's sleeves suddenly and shouted, “You know that people in society are craftier than students. What you have done in school even the worst behavior means nothing for people in society.”
“I know and I'll be careful!” Anton answered in a calm voice.
“I mean if you have any difficulties, I wish you could call me, and I will try my best to help you!” Dolores hurried to supplemented.
Anton nodded, “If the tough moment happens, I will call you. And please don’t forget what you said today.”
“They talked a lot, which helped Anton to know more about Dolores such as that she is not as strong as she looks like and a bit confused about life as similar as he was. They were both on the way to look for dreams. In Anton’s view, compared with innocent Camille, Dolores is more mature. Both of the two girls are charming with their own unique characteristics.
The bell rang for class. Anton and Dolores walked back from the playground with being closer to each other in a relationship. Anton turned to Dolores, “Ms. White, I'm back to the classroom, and let’s talk next time.” Dolores nodded quickly, but felt a little sad, “Well, are you free tonight?”
“Maybe I am if things go on as usual. What is the matter?” Anton asked. “How about a dinner together tonight?” Dolores was looking at him expectantly. And after getting the answer she wanted, she left satisfied leaving a receding figure which caught up Anton’s mind into confusion. “Obviously, he was attracted by Dolores’ mature, at the same time, he can’t forget Camille, the innocent and beautiful girl.” The choice between the two girls was really difficult to make, but the choice to abandon is easy like an ostrich. That is exactly what Anton did. He believed that a dead-end thing didn’t deserve any energy.
A month later, in a residential area near the Ghost nightclub in the south of J City.
A knock on the door made the person indoor impatient, “Who? What's up?”
“It’s for charging electricity!” A thin and young teenager responded
“Fuck, didn't you damn just charge it? Why come again!”
