Earth,
Year: 220 A.B.
April 1st,
Morning Monday,
Everything was dark within the room, making it cold even in the summer morning. But a breeze blew in from the corner of the dark curtain covering the window and the morning rays started coming in.
"Fuck!!" A boy said as he slammed his bag on his bed. It was an empty school bag.
Then he turned to the window which was on his left and took off the headphones he was wearing. He had long dark hair that was falling down across his eye lashes, almost blocking his view. But he seemed to not care about that at that moment. Also, he had a skinny body and was wearing a dark blue t-shirt along with light brown long shorts.
Character info-
Name: Readarex.
Usually called: Reada.
Sex: Male
Age: 16 (Almost, according to earth's time)
Words that can describe him perfectly: Not sure.
Suddenly another breeze came in, passing through the window and surprised Reada as it hit his face. The sensation was cold and refreshing but instead of feeling refreshed he got annoyed. He looked to his right, at the corner of his window and reached out to it, to properly cover it with the curtain while running his other hand's finger through his hair.
As he grabbed the curtain, it got pushed over and opened up a little more instead of closing. And something from the outside caught his eyes. It was a boy aged to be around 12-13, standing down there on the road. He was wearing casual clothes and was facing left, waving off to someone. After he finished waving, a woman came out while opening the door of the house across the road and called that boy in. And then that boy went inside.
"Huh? I don't remember seeing them here, ever." Reada said wonderingly while he was looking out of the window, seeing that boy go. He was surprised because he had never seen people in that house before.
"Don't do nonsense and get yourself ready already!!" Suddenly a loud voice of a woman came from behind him.
He turned around and saw a woman standing by the entrance of his room while leaning her shoulder against the door. That woman had a slim, tall body and looked to be around 27-30 and was wearing a turtleneck t-shirt and a pair of jeans, and she was quite beautiful in her looks too. But what was more important was that she had an angry expression over her face.
She is his mother, Alie Harns.
"Really?? Even today? By the way, who are they?" Reada asked as he turned to her.
"Stop making excuses!! You were sleeping all day yesterday. Because of which you have already skipped school." Alie scolded. "Also they are our new neighbours. You missed them arriving here yesterday because you were sleeping."
"Really??" Reada asked unbelievingly.
"Yes, now come down. Breakfast is ready!"
"Okay fine. Just give me a minute." He said unwillingly, but he had no other choice so he had to follow it at the end.
Finally after like 10-15 minutes Reada was ready for school now. He was standing in front of the exit of his home while wearing his school uniform and carrying his school bag. The bag he had this time was a different one than the one he had slammed on his bed earlier. And behind him was Alie, standing there seeing him off.
"Okay bye then, I'm going." He said as he was about to go.
"Yeah, look out for cars!!" She said while Reada closed the door after he went out. She still had that tough face while she was saying that and she continued having it even after some moments of his departure.
But after like a minute she jumped up in elation, exclaiming, "YES!!" While she pulled down her hand and clenched a fist. She was very happy that she had successfully fooled her son into going to school on the 1st day of April.
She then rushly took her phone out of her pocket and while walking left to right made a call to a number.
"Hello?" A woman's voice answered from the other side as the call was picked.
"You know? He fell for it!" She said excitedly.
"Oh really? I somewhat knew he'd!!" The women over the phone also said excitedly.
"Oh, then what about on your side? Did she fall for it??" Alie asked joyfully.
"Yeah sh-"
Suddenly the door opened. And Alie, who was listening to her call, got distracted by the creaking sound of it. She turned to it and saw Reada standing there leaning against the door, looking right at her.
Her hand dropped down with which she was holding her phone as she saw him.
"Hello? Alie? You're listening??" The woman over the call tried calling her while worrying about her. But she was too stunned to answer anything.
She was thinking various things while she stood there like a tree in shock. Like:
Had he heard her conversation?
Or did he find out about it after looking at his phone while he was going to school.
"Yo- you? You forgot something??" She asked him while trying to handle herself and the situation.
But Reada didn't answer anything. Instead he walked up to her and slowly wrapped his arms around her. And while hugging and resting his head on her shoulder he said softly, "Happy April Fools!!."
And with that Alie found that actually she was the one getting fooled, this whole time while thinking that he had been fooled by her.
Reada never went to school after that, that day. But he surely went out. But while carrying that empty school bag from earlier that he had slammed on his bed and wearing casual clothes this time. He went out just after like 10 minutes of that incident and went to a corner store of that area.
There, he took dozens of chips, cookies and other snack packets and went to the counter to checkout. Since it was still around 07:20 AM the shop was a little busy. But Reada had found his spot and was now checking out.
He had made a huge pile of snacks on the counter. And was packing them inside the bag he had brought, one by one as they were being checked out. There was also a big line of people behind him who were also annoyed by waiting because he was taking so long but he just didn't seem to care about that at all.
"Really you shouldn't be eating this much. It's unhealthy, that's why you're so skinny!" The lady on the counter said while checking out his products. She seemed to be knowing him.
"Doesn't matter, it's not like I have someone to princess carry!" Reada said. And in front of his straightforwardness she was left speechless.
Suddenly a girl, a little shorter than him in height appeared beside him, breaking the line. She was wearing the same type of uniform that Reada was wearing while going to school and had long pink mixed black hair. She was holding a notebook in front of her face with the fingers that had all its nails painted.
Then she gave that notebook to the counter lady while saying, "add it to his bill."
The notebook had a picture of a male who had snow white hair as its cover. He also was clean shaved and was posing to be looking out of the pictures.
Reada turned to her as he heard her voice.
"Aren't you coming to school?" That girl asked while checking her bag out as he turned to her. "I've heard, this year Mr Targil is the class teacher?"
But he didn't answer anything, instead he just pulled up a middle finger.
"Oh…!" The girl understood what he was trying to say and didn't say anything after that. Then she placed a 50 yerats note on the counter after taking it out of her bag, which was the bill for the notebook and left after taking it from that lady.
After finishing checking out there Reada went to a restaurant and roomed around here and there like that for some hours while carrying his bag of snack.
Around 11:00 AM,
Reada was now sitting on a bench in the park. He was sitting with his back bend, under the shadow of a tree and his bag was right beside him. There were kids playing and he was staring at them play with his chin being supported by his arm which was on his knee.
All of a sudden a boy walked up to him and asked, "You are the son of that aunt who lives in the neighbourhood, right?"
Reada looked up at him as he heard that. That boy looked to be around 13 or so and also he was the same boy whom he had seen earlier in the morning.
"Yeah??" Reada answered as he straightened his posture.
"Your mom is hot!!" That boy said immediately after him.
Even Reada was surprised by his straightforwardness which was visible on his face. But he still decided to have a casual conversation with him.
"Umm…" he thought for a bit and replied, "thank you…I guess!"
"What's your name?" That boy asked.
"Readarex, you can call me Reada tho-"
"Whatt-? Whata' weird name?!" He interrupted, "well it suits your looks. But seriously, to imagine such a hot looking woman would have such a mess as her son? It's quite hard to believe. She really looks very young to have a son of your age. Wait!..." Suddenly he stopped for a second after saying that and started thinking. Then he surprisingly asked, "Don't tell me, you're her stepson??"
Reada was hearing through all his mannerless stuff. But still he decided to keep calm.
"No, it's actually her genes!" Reada answered casually.
"Yeah, I agree with you on that." He continued, "by the way I'm Glem!!"
"Hmm, sounds gay." This time Reada said.
"Hun? You think so? Well then let me just have your girlfriend for a night and I'll prove you wrong!" Glem said proudly like he placed some kind of Uno reverse card over his comment.
"I didn't know you were that into your sister!!"
But as Reada stated that, all his confidence broke down.
"Bastard!! How Dare You?!" Glem shouted in rage threw a punch at him. But he blocked it with his one hand and slapped him away with his another like he was chasing away a bug out of his vision. And then they started fighting like cats and dogs.
…
P.s. - The fight was later stopped by Alie who happened to be passing by.
