Chapter 54: Fire Within

"Dude! Let's hang out after class!" 

A heavy arm almost shrunk Sean down. He looked to his left and saw Lucas grinning. Lucas was the guy who's always with him in the billiard shop. His gang friend where they often got into a fight. 

"It's almost a week. Haven't you missed me?"

Sean slapped the guy's hands. "You're ridiculous." he picked up his tray and walked forward to the table he already put his eyes on. It was their lunchtime, and he's waiting for his turn when this guy arrived.

Lucas followed him to his table. He pulled a chair out and sat across from him. "Come on, Sean…Are you really serious about what you said yesterday?" 

Sean paused, he looked the guy straight in the eyes. "I already told you, I'm going to retrieve my grades. I've been running loose these days and my dad is already getting annoyed because of me," he replied.
