Lately, It's Winter Season.

Chapter 24 - Extremely Tight

I forgot to wake up because I heard a sound in the room. The bedroom is dim, and I see Dan changing clothes.

"Did you go?"

"Well, he made an appointment at three o'clock."

"I'll drop you off."

"It's okay. Go back to sleep."

"I'm going to take you." I didn't give up. I leaned up on myself to get out of bed and walk to change clothes. Before stepping outside with Dan, I stopped by the washroom to wash my face in the bathroom downstairs. Today is the day the school will organise a colour sports event. Dan holds the sign during the colour group procession, so he needs to wake up early to go to school.

"The appointment is too early", I can't help but complain.

"Women make an appointment from one o'clock in the morning," Dan said, "As for men, they don't have to dress up. Very much, the appointment is at 3 a.m."

"Go and wait. Instead of making appointments with multiple people, make one in one place. There must be someone waiting."

"That's right," Dan nodded in agreement.

"Instead of refusing."

I have refused since high school. It's four," Dan said. Last year, I tried it.  A monthly experience, don’t you get bored with every sport?”

"I feel sorry for Adi," I sighed. If there had been no month, I wouldn't have won a list of items."

"I'm true."

We walked through the same way that we walked back and forth to school all the time. It's good on the main road, so there are bright lights. Entering the school, I found that there were many people. The teacher decided that you only have to come to make up and dress up here. The teacher will take care of it. It's easy to get in the car to the starting point of the procession. My red hair made me stand out in the cafeteria. Walking in, I saw the green ones at the sports centre. So, I looked at it with interest.

The green procession looks very magnificent. The red four will lose to the green as usual. But our red colour is prominent in sports. I don't know why it's the same, but it's prominent every year, except in high school fourth, because the blue colour has Tiger.

In high school, Tiger was involved in basketball, football, and track and field, participating in various events. The one that swept the first place. As for the colour of the hair, he got second place in football. Other programs are ranked mixed with each other. I went down in basketball. Ask the Tiger to help practice again. Finally, I lost since I couldn't compete with the pink one or go up against the blue one.

Five will be in charge of doing colour sports. Last year, I felt it was fun. This year, I went to university. Six has no duty, but anyone can participate. It's up to you voluntarily.

This year, I played Sepak Takraw. These two have been completed for a few days. Both of them competed in two more races, short runs and relays. The running program will compete today. There is a junior high school. Five came to invite you to do something else, but I'm not good at other things, especially volleyball. If people are lacking, I can do anything else except volleyball.

After the second semester, Suea has no signs of returning. He is also stressed. He said he wanted to come back to study at the university here. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to take the exam if he didn't return on time. I saw Dan working all the time. Back in the room, he studied with me. However, tutoring with me should not be of much help. But come to think of it, Tiger is always working, so it's still a little worry. It's better to worry about yourself than me.

Let's send Dan to the cafeteria with bright lights. Many people are waiting. I stopped by to chat with my friends before heading back to bed, as I had to race early in the morning. Even without competition, I had to wake up to see Dan holding a sign for the colour group. My mother woke me up and said the procession was coming to the front of the house. I rushed down to see in time.

It was discovered that people were waiting to watch the procession along the entire street and in front of the store, including our schoolchildren, students from other schools, and visiting alumni. Even outsiders saw the green colour leading first, followed by pink and red. I saw the red procession from afar, holding a sign with another woman.

I hold the camera in my mother's hand, preparing to take the shot entirely. I also intend to shoot with a mobile camera. Dan's makeup and dress like this are not easy to find. What I want Dan to refuse is not that I don't like it. One reason is that I don't want to be difficult. I don't like waking up early, and I don't like that only people with my face wait to see me and take pictures, even if it's not wrong.

Dan smiled at us when he walked to the front of the house. Mom and I take a lot of pictures. When Dan walks, it's not enough. Follow to take photos from other angles. "Look at the month; this corner is perfect." My mother handed me the camera so I could take a look.

"It's true; it's perfect. If I compliment his beauty, will it be strange?" I said, according to the idea. That's to praise its cuteness; it's not straightforward. It's more beautiful. Dan is more attractive than the woman holding the sign together.

"It's not strange that Dan is wonderful. If you're cute or handsome, it doesn't matter." Mom made a thoughtful gesture for a while. "I'm going to say that grandma praises men for being beautiful."

"Beautiful like a northern language?" I asked. My grandmother is from the north, but my grandfather is from the central region. As a result, my mother can speak some northern languages. But Dan and I rarely talk to them. I only understand some words.

"Yes, it's like the hero of this drama is beautiful. The mother is so tight."

"What is the size of Ting Hum?

"I like it very much."

"Oh, Mom, you should teach me some northern language. I want to speak it."

The two of us walked into the school. After the opening ceremony, we took a picture of Dan in the field in front of the flagpole. We then took Dan to change clothes and wash his face.

"Dan, today is so beautiful. The month is so tight."

"Huh?" Dan immediately frowned, "What?"

"It's tight," I repeat, secretly laughing at Dan's confused face. "Meaning I like it very much.

"Oh, Northern language?"

"Why do you know?"

"Guess what, did you teach me?" Dan asked to rub the foam on his face to wash it. "Competition month, what time is it?”

"In half an hour," I looked at the time on my phone. "I have to hold the warm line and wait."

"Okay, then Mom and Dan will cheer for you."

Colour sports are held yearly, and there will be another highlight: the mascot of each colour. Let's walk in the procession and run in the race. The mascot dress looks cute, but the wearer will find it difficult to wear. Hot weather like this still requires wearing a mascot dress and running again, but there is not enough time to wear it all day because the mascot is considered a symbol of colour.

Most of them are M. Six, and they wear each other because Mimi has to stand at the university. Five, it has a duty. Six, there's nothing to do. Wearing a mascot, you don't have to practice to waste time—only one real day. I've already put it on because a friend bullied me. These bastards intend to tease each other. Fortunately, they will run and race. Otherwise, I would have worn that panda costume and red shirt.

"Is it hot? Dark?" I said, inviting me to talk. Now I'm getting ready to wait for the competition to begin. On the side of the stand, I saw a fourth room, where a dark-skinned man was chosen to wear a sitting dress. The one inside must be making a face, but from the outside, it looks cute. It's a panda in a fat red shirt.

"Hot animal"

"But on the outside, you're so cute." I reached out and hit the panda's head. He clenched his fist to hit me back. But it's a panda's fist. It's adorable.

"Don't do it to me, I'm going to compete, Hedgehog." I turned to see the blue penguin, walked up to him, and sat beside him.

"Aren't you in your colour?" The hedgehog didn't answer; he just shook his head.

"Hot Adee," He nodded.

"What's wrong? Are you so upset that you can't speak?"

"Well, sit down and adjust the suffering. I'm going," I said before getting up and walking to the other athletes standing and talking. Soon, the teacher came to tell the person who had to go down that I could run a hundred-metre race on the field. I walked with three others. In the eyes of many people surrounding me, I'm not very excited because I've been through a football match that more people watched.

The cheers from the stands sounded. The cheerleaders began to pose a little before the whistle sounded, and the host was introduced. I ran and reached the finish line first. The host announced that the red team won, followed by a congratulatory shout. I gasped a little, walked back to the same stand to find a sip of water, and the blue penguin handed me a water bottle.

"Thank you." I'm ready to drink. The hedgehog didn't answer anything, just gave me a thumbs up.

"You're blue, aren't you? You're a traitor." I couldn't help but tease the Penguin.

The blue colour didn't answer anything. "What's wrong? Are you late and cold, don't you say anything?"

"Ah, if you're hot, let's get some water."

"What the hell, hedgehog? You're with him. Does he talk to you?"

"No, I'm confused. What the hell is it?"

"Oh, who are you angry with?" I turned to ask the hedgehog, confused.

"Or are you training as a cold man? Where are you going to be cool? Just carrying a guitar to school every day is cool. I can't scream." I teased. As I said, I want a guitar because of the hedgehog. Handsome, there is no reason. I just carried a guitar, but when I got a guitar, I almost didn't take it to school. It's heavy.

"Of course, I still haven't answered with my friends and herd." I put down the remaining half of the water bottle. Turned to look at the cheer stand and cheerleaders. "This year's leader is full of cute people."

"Darkly, do you know the middleman? - Gosh, Penguin, did you slap me on the head?" I shouted because the penguin next to me just patted my head, even though it was very lightly. "What are you doing, hedgehog? Talking too, he didn't talk about the Tiger that slapped my head again."

"Some you", said more "Retake it, hedgehog, I'll give you five ba-oh, slap me. Why?"

"Some," I think it's the same. Did this penguin fall? He slapped my whole head. "Penguin is angry."

"What the fuck, animal?" Dark slapped the night. The hedgehog was going to slap back, but I grabbed his arm first.

"Calm down, you've hit each other. It's gone. The mascot must be cute and friendly. You guys can't come to fight each other." Both of them stopped and came back to sit as usual. When someone came to ask for a picture with this guy, they had to accept. After a while, I had time to race the relay. "I'm going."

I was about to get up, but the penguin touched my shoulder and turned to see me. Give me a thumbs-up again.

"Well, that's great, definitely great. Why don't you go cheer up your colour?" At the end of the sentence, I secretly complained, but I still gave a thumbs-up. I went to the position where the last stick matched the original red stand. I saw the blue penguin waving his hand. No, you shouldn't cheer for me like this. You are in blue.

At the end of the whistle, the first wooden stick ran. Continue with the second and third sticks. When it was my turn, I found that Red was in second place. I took the stick and ran out, overtaking the person in front of me and entering the finish line first. I received praise for being very good. It's not wrong to give the last stick. When everything was done, I walked to my mother and Dan.

"Oh, there's a penguin following me," my mother said. I turned to look back.

Immediately, I saw a hedgehog following me.

"You don't have a box of rice at your colour?"

"I'm going to eat at the cafeteria."

"... Oh, do you want to eat at the cafeteria with me?" I couldn't help but invite him. He nodded without saying anything more. Together for a long time, I didn't hear it at all. Then the four of us walked to the cafeteria.

"Oh, this hedgehog is my mother," I said, recommending it because hedgehogs have never eaten my shop's rice. The blue penguin raised his hand to pay his respects.

"Hello," Mom smiled. The dress is so cute, but isn't it hot, baby?"

He still didn't answer. My mother made a confused face.

"It's a little bad, Mom," I replied. My mother nodded in understanding. We went to the cafeteria and found only a few shops open because it was the day of the event. Most of them ate boxed rice or went out to eat. But because we were too lazy to go out. Plus, I was considerate when I asked for another lunchbox for my mother. I was afraid that it was not enough for others to eat here. "What do you want?"

"Take off your head so you can eat, " I said, pointing to his head.

"Aren't you hungry? Water, drink some water. You might faint."

I still haven't answered, "Or take it off, I'm hot instead." He still didn't answer until I was too lazy to talk, so I went to the stand to buy rice with curry. Came to stand next to but didn't order anything to eat. I went to buy oil and followed.

"Hedgehog, I think you're acting weird today. Do you have anything? I mean, what's a problem with me, animal? Take off your clothes and punch each other. I'm starting to get annoyed."

"Wow," I cursed. I couldn't bear to punch him on the shoulder lightly. He followed me back to the table and sat down next to me. Please put a plate of rice on the table for my mother. "Mom, this restaurant is delicious. I eat it at noon almost every day."

"I'm, it's delicious too. Mom likes it."

"Mom is so nice, isn't she?" I asked with a smile. Mom also smiled widely.

 "Don't you eat it?" my mother asked the hedgehog. 

"It said it's not hungry." I had to repeat it. Turn to look at the hedgehog in the penguin mascot, who is sitting still. Don't eat, don't drink water, don't say a word.

The only thing he did was to slap me with the dark guy. He poked me. I turned to look. He tilted his neck and made a gesture of suspicion. "Oh, that's the word just now, right? It means I like it very much in the northern language." He nodded.

While I was eating, I received a call and found out that I was a friend. I left the room to take the call, pressing to receive.

"What's up?"

(Cold, are you still at school?)

"Why did you suddenly?"

(I'm sorry, but can you run a marathon for me? I got injured during the warm-up.

"Is there no one else?"

(It's enough, but cold should be the best.)

"Hey, Beam, if Beam praises us so much, we don't want Beam to disappoint."

I replied, "Okay, what time will we post it for you?"

(Half past two in the afternoon, sorry, I'm so tired)

"It's okay, it's okay." Then I hung up. When I hung up, the penguin poked me.

"What? Why are you pointing at yourself? What's yours? Talk about this guy."

"Do you want to compete instead?" Dan said.

"Damn, you're in blue. Besides, you have a mascot race in the middle of the afternoon," I said. The hedgehog calmed down before making your throat fall. 

"It's okay. The mascot competition is hilarious. Separate the serious program. He nodded that he understood. I turned to look at my mother because I heard her talking on the phone when she put it down. I immediately asked.

"What is it, Mom?"

"I have an order for a lunchbox. The price is good too, so I have to accept it." Mom made me a little worried. "Can Dan go back and help me do it? I'm sorry. I probably won't be able to cheer for you."

"It's okay." I shook my head a lot. "Mom, go back. Anyway, I'm in a hurry to compete. I'll hurry back."

After eating, my mother and Dan rushed home. All that's left is for me to sit and wait for the race. I'm running a marathon here. A marathon is running around the field twice. Even though I'm confident in myself, the other coloured juniors are also good at it. Many people are aware of this because they have joined the football club.

In the afternoon, the hedgehog was called to run a race. He followed others. I sat and waited at the same place and found that the hedgehog was running on all four feet. No matter how messy the dress was, he ran so seriously that he quickly entered first place. I was sitting and watching. I was confused that the hedgehog was running so fast. And he's also very good at running with that kind of outfit.

When the race was over, it walked back to me. It won't go back. The colour is already oily.

"It's brutal."

It turned his hands and shrugged his shoulders like Dhammada. I kept my mouth open. The hedgehog wasn't hit by its colour. He followed him until he was followed in turn. Someone told him to change his colour. It went back, as he said, but he returned to sit with me after a while. When he was called again, he walked again. But in the end, come back again.

"You go to your colour. I feel sorry for the people who follow me."

It shakes its head.

"What's wrong with you? Are you being bullied by him?"

"Hey, hedgehog, what's wrong? You can talk to me?" I patted him on the shoulder. From the mess, he started to become worried. It's no longer just a joke. "Did you fight with someone in there? Tell me and I'll clear it for you."

It's still shaking its head.

"It's hard to say, I understand. I'm cheering you up. Keep fighting."

I haven't had a chance to say anything yet. I was called to prepare for the marathon. As usual, I crossed the first finish line, but I was exhausted. If someone asked me to compete again, I wouldn't be able to do it anymore because the green guy is so fast. I know this because I'm on the football team. Anyone on the football team runs brutally. The coach can't think of anything but running.

"Hedgehog rubs home," I walked to tell him. Anyway, we spend almost all day together. You can talk to me if you have anything."

I walked out of the field and went straight to the school's front door, intending to go home, but... The hedgehog is still following. From being a mess, I became worried. Until now, it's starting to haunt me.

"Hedgehog, seriously, you take off your head to talk to me." I stretched out my hand to remove the penguin's head, but it slipped out of my grasp. "What the hell? Talk to me now.” I give up and don't continue with it because I don't have the strength left.

"Don't follow me," I pointed at it before stepping back. I looked back and saw that it was still following.

"Do you want to follow me home? How about taking a shower and sleeping with me? You bastard"

He nodded.

"What's wrong with you?" I'm in a bad mood. Walk away from the school; it's still following me anyway. "Hedgehog, can I hook you up? Like asking for a punch. Let's go."

I put my arms out and clenched my fist. I punched it in the mascot's head, but the hedgehog could hold my arm. I thought I would take it back, but it pulled me to hug it like that. Because the weather is already hot, the mascot is hot. I'm still confused and don't understand, so I'm going back and forth.

"It's hot, I'm hot," I shouted, trying to push it out. "Let it go. Can you hug me? I'm hot. I told you, what can we talk about, animal? Oh." While trying to struggle out of the hot embrace, I had to look up because the other person was so tall that I wondered if the hedgehog was this tall. The second I thought of that, I saw someone with a familiar face walking away.

... HEDGEHOG

That's... This is a hedgehog.

What about... And who is the guy who hugged me!!

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, who the fuck, motherfucker, motherfucker, fuck, fuck, I was so panicked that I raised my legs to kick his balls. The other party agreed to withdraw his hug. As soon as I got out, I ran, hot and scared, without caring about anything. I'm afraid of hell. Why doesn't the hedgehog talk at all? It's not this hedgehog. And who is it? Shit.

I ran for my life because of paranoia. I've been kidnapped once, so I can't help but be afraid. No matter who it is, a friend comes to tease. At that moment, I ran away. Because there are still some people outside. I ran to avoid that person. I almost hit people many times. There are people. Whatever you do, you won't survive.

But because I've been racing all day, I've been running more slowly, and the penguin Xia also runs fast. Finally, it caught up. Unzip the zipper in the middle of the dress and reach inside as if it were about to pick up something.

Gun! He must have picked up the gun! No, it's going to be too outrageous. This is near the school, and there are still people. Or is it because he intended to grab me so blatantly, so he wore a mascot dress so that no one would know who it was? Shoot me to death. Did you run away like that?

"Help me!" I opened my mouth and cried. At the same time, my wrist was caught. I decided to turn to punch the mascot's head with full force until its head fell off. Then I punched it again until it stopped. Kicked and cut off the leg until it fell and sat on end. It didn't stop. It raised its hands to obscure its face. I don't care how it is. I'll crumple it.

"Oh! Oh! It's cold. That's enough. Calm down. It's me." I frowned. When I heard that, I stopped my hand. The other party put his hand down.

I was so gasping that I could barely breathe. I was stunned by the person in front of me. I slowly push myself up and sit next to him instead, "You're a motherfucker, I'm sorry. I'm shocked."

"It's okay," he replied before getting up and extending his hand to me.

"When we met for the first time, you punched me. The first time we met in two years, you punched me," Suea said, ready to wipe the blood at the corner of his mouth, supporting me to get up.

I turned to look around and saw many people paying attention. I would have wondered why the mascot had to run after me and why I punched my fists on the penguin mascot. Cute, I can't hold back.

"Why didn't you tell me when you came back? When did you come back?”

“Last night, I said I had a morning job."

"This is the morning event."

"So why are you wearing this dress?"

"It's your surprise, so I asked to wear a dress instead of the hedgehog."

"Damn it, it's a real surprise. I almost had a heart attack. It's so haunting." I frowned and said, standing on my feet, hands on my waist, panting like that. "What are you going to take out? I'm more than a gun. I thought you'd keep me outdoors. It's too outrageous."

"Oh, here it is." The Tiger bent down to pick up the rose that was already messy because it had been dropped. And was stepped on by me just now. "I gave you a surprise."

"With roses?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise.

"Seeing it humiliates the school. I think if I don't say anything all day. And suddenly handed it to you, you must be surprised."

"Well, I'm really surprised. So why do you have to pick it up when chasing me? You bastard"

"I'm not going to pick it up. I ran, and it would fall, so I picked it up."

"Oh," I said, "I feel sorry for him. I just stepped on it."

"I feel sorry for it, keep it."

"Eh," that's all I answered before picking up that rose. I hold it in my hand and gently cup its petals to make it look more beautiful. "The size of being stepped on, this flower is still beautiful."

"Is it okay?" I turned to look at it and smiled.

"Yes."
