Like, how are we gonna carry all this if it's just the two of us? He took out like five boxes and some long weird sticks.
We look like porters, carrying super heavy stuff.
"Haiyst, I shouldn't have joined you guys" Mica complained, carrying two boxes and a big stick.
"Haha, unlucky you" Stevan teasingly said, walking beside me with two boxes and two sticks.
"I will despise this day" I muttered. I'm carrying two boxes and a big stick, and to top it all off, my head's pounding and I'm dizzy.
Shoot, next time I'm taping my mouth shut so I don't end up like this again.
"Damn, why does Prof's lab have to be on the 4th floor" Stevan complained.
Haiyst, will we even make it to the 3rd floor alive? My arm's about to break on the 2nd floor.
"Guys, wait up, let's take a break, I'm about to faint from the weight" Mica pleaded. Stevan and I looked at each other and dropped our stuff to the side.
"I can't do this anymore, these boxes are so heavy" Mica said, almost out of breath.
"What does Prof. even do with these, f*ck, even with my muscles I can't handle it" she flexed her arm, which looked like a twig.
"Idiot, where?" I said, smirking, which made Stevan frown. Mica, still panting, laughed at him.
"So negative, hmp" Stevan pouted, crossing his arms.
It's true, all I saw was bones not even a single muscle are visible.

"By the way guys, what do you think inside that box? they said it was fragile" Mica asked, sparking my curiosity.
"Don't know, maybe a rat? It moved around when I was carrying it" Stevan replied. "Ewww, a rat?! Be careful, it might jump out and bite you" Mica said, cringing.
This one's so dramatic, can't even see if it's really a rat and she's already freaking out.
"Why don't we take a peek?" Stevan suggested.
Stupid, if it gets loose, we'll be in trouble
"No way, what if it escapes?" I refused.
"Ey, what if we open it a little, it won't escape, look, it's moving" Stevan said, pointing at the box that was making noise.
"Okay, but you're the one who needs to do that, what if it jumps at my face?" Mica said.
Stevan immediately looked at me, and I shook my head. "No thank you"
"Okay, whatever, I'm gonna check" he said, approaching the box. As he slowly opened it and peeked inside, suddenly...
"Ahh!" Stevan dropped the box and it fell to the floor. Mica and I jumped up and rushed to him.
"What's wrong? what"'s wrong?" Mica asked.
"Did it bite you?" I asked
"Uh, when I was looking, it suddenly moved really hard, so I got startled" Stevan explained.
I facepalmed because of how dramatic he was.
"You scared me!" Mica hit Stevan's shoulder angrily, which made him laugh.
"Jerk!! check it if it's still alive. Why did you drop it?" I said, pointing at the box, annoyed.
"Looks like it's still moving, though" he said with a grin, picking up the box.
"Let's just take it up already" I irritatedly said. Knowing him, he'll open something else again and he might drop it again. We'll be in trouble if he breaks something there.
As we were going up the stairs, we met three students, and one of them looked familiar - the one with headphones around his neck. When he caught me looking, he suddenly smiled and waved at me. Huh? Who's this guy again?
"Ayesha" he greeted with a smile.
The three of us - Stevan, Mica, and I - exchanged looks. "Ayesha, you know her?" Stevan asked.
"Dunno, she looks familiar though" I replied. We turned our attention back to the person in front of us.
"Don't you remember me?" he asked, pointing at himself. I shook my head, I really didn't recognize him.
Who are you? Can you move, this thing is heavy.
"I'm Matthew... from Princess' birthday party, remember? The one who lent you a jacket?" he said with a smile. I tried to recall... and then it hit me.
"Oh! Right, yeah, you're the one". I borrowed his jacket that day because Cess was super drunk and almost falling out of her dress, so I needed something to cover her up. "Uhm, thanks for that, but can we catch up later? We need to take this to the science lab, it's really heavy, can't hold it for long" I said with a forced smile, almost grimacing because it was killing me
"Ohh sorry sorry" he quickly moved aside, and before I could even step on a stair, he spoke up again.
Ahh! For f*cking sake leave me alone!!
"Mind if I help you? There are three of us, it'll be faster to get this to the science lab"My ears perked up at that suggestion.
Woah!! Are you an angel sent from heaven??
"Hey thanks, bro, take this one, my arms are dying" The smile on Matthew's face dropped, since he was expecting to get the stuff i was carrying, but Stevan suddenly handed him the box and stick instead he was carrying.
"Wah! My arms are relieved ahh" Stevan said. Meanwhile, the other guy was super frowned up, but it vanished when he noticed me looking at him.
"I-its okay w-wait I'll call my friends" he said, kinda awkwardly. I smiled slightly and glared at Stevan.
"What? He said he wanted to help" Stevan said innocently.
"You're such a gentle man as always" Mica said with sarcasm with her fake smile.
••••••••
"Sir, can you please extend the deadline for the summary paper? I'm so sleep-deprived, look at my handsome face, it suddenly looks old" Stevan pleaded when we got to the science lab.
Prof. looked us up and down. "Fine, until dismissal. If you still don't pass it, don't expect any grades this final" he said.
Wow, what a huge consideration. Thanks!!, thanks for letting us sleep.
