Army of True Salvation (English) - Chapter 46：More Colorful Memories

It was already their recess and Sheloah was eating alone until one person, also her classmate during her third year of high school, approached her.

“Hey, Josh,” Sheloah greeted him as they gave each other a brofist.

Josh was Sheloah’s best friend since she was in her third year. They became close in their first month because both of them were into games and they were also seatmates. Their adviser in 3G that time was Sir Jim.

“How are you,” he asked as Sheloah ate one biscuit of her [1]Fita.

“I’m okay. And you,” she asked and Josh smiled at her.

“I’m happy because my crush is in our class,” he answered in a whisper and Sheloah rolled her eyes at him as she smiled.

She knew who Josh’s crush was. Her name is Dannie. She’s a very pretty lady with a tomboyish attitude. She has fair skin, small eyes, and cute lips. She kind of looks like a Japanese teenager. She’s somewhat lazy in class, but she’s very intelligent in math. She’s fun to be with, but Sheloah and her aren’t that much close.

“Stop thinking about her. We’re about to graduate,” Sheloah said and Josh just ignored her as he took a glance at Dannie, laughing at the corner with her group of friends.

He had been in love with Dannie for almost four years. He fell in love with her since their first year of high school.

“Hey, guys,” Tyler greeted them as he sat beside them. “What’s up,” he said as he looked at Josh, noticing that he was looking at Dannie. He rolled his eyes at him as he smiled.

Josh and Tyler were also close. Tyler was into animes and games as well that was why they quickly became friends.

Tyler is a tall boy and somewhat thin. People thought he was gay because of the way he moves, but he’s actually very manly; especially when it comes to Alice. Tyler also had curly hair which resembled like Cupid’s.

Sheloah suddenly laughed when she remembered a memory from when she was in third grade. The two boys looked at her suddenly.

“What is she laughing about,” Josh asked and Tyler just shrugged his shoulders, unsure.

“I remember something from when I was in third grade,” Sheloah said and she was still laughing at herself. “When I was in third grade, I had a crush on Tyler before,” she finally said and the two boys were surprised.

“Oh, shit!” The two boys reacted then the three suddenly burst out into laughing.

Sheloah couldn’t understand why when she was nine, she was attracted to Tyler. She found it weird now, considering that she got to know Tyler more. Well, she couldn’t blame herself because she was young before and she couldn’t have any specific reasons why she liked Tyler; except for him being too kind to everyone.

Having these memories indeed make life more colorful and fun!

“Hey! So what animes or games are you talking about now,” she asked and the boys looked at her. In the column was Tristan, Jeric, Veon, Josh, Austin, and Tyler.

“Why is a girl here,” Jeric commented and Sheloah rolled her eyes at him.

“And so what if I’m a girl?” The others just laughed at what she said. Sheloah thought to herself that even though she was a girl, she could have these interests, too!

Veon went beside Sheloah to talk to her. “So you’re into games and animes as well, huh,” he said as Sheloah smiled and nodded at him, answering his question.

She didn’t know what else to tell Veon. She just knew him now and since she was in the first year, she was never classmates with Veon until now.

She hanged out with the boys in column four as they talked about the games they were playing and the series they were watching. Sheloah didn’t expect for her to get too close with Veon quickly. It was like in just one meeting, they had already clicked.

Almost two months had already passed. It was recess time and Isobel and Sheloah were just outside their classroom, leaning on the railings of the quadrangle. Sheloah and Isobel rarely left the classroom and they just thought of going out just now.

As Isobel was looking beyond the quadrangle, her eyes suddenly widened then she pinched Sheloah’s arm to get her attention.

“Ouch!” Sheloah hit Isobel’s arm but she seemed to not mind it. “What the hell? That hurt!”

Isobel pointed at the playground then Sheloah saw Franz.

Franz is a year lower than Sheloah and Isobel and he was the school’s PRO. He is a very mysterious person who’s very handsome and very smart. He was one of the school’s outstanding students. He’s even good at basketball. Girls find Franz a knockout.

Franz was sitting on the bench, with his jersey on. He was obviously playing basketball and he was currently resting. Sheloah looked at Isobel and laughed when she saw her fanning herself.

“Gosh, Sheloah… Franz is so hot!”

Sheloah rolled her eyes at her best friend. She did not find him hot.

“You’re crazy!” The two girls started to giggle. Franz then looked at the both of them.

When Franz saw Isobel, they had an eye contact for three seconds until Franz looked at the other direction, avoiding Isobel’s gaze. Isobel then suddenly pulled Sheloah, hiding in one corner. Her face reddened as she recalled the three seconds they shared.

“He looked at me! He’s already my boyfriend. Once he knew that we’re together, we’ll break up,” Isobel said and this made Sheloah laugh out loud.

Her best friend is really insane!
