THE STRONGEST STUDENT 

CHAPTER 7

Jose's defeat 

"The next morning while Jay was walking to school"

jay - another day, I will see Jose again

(jay suddenly remembers what Jose told him)

Jose - if you act slowly again, I will hurt you

jay - by the way, I have to go inside immediately and if I don't Jose will get angry

"while Jay was about to run inside, some students were talking and he heard it"

"students talking"

(S1, S2, S3 = students 1, 2, 3. ...)

S1 - do you know the news that is spreading on campus?

S2 - No, what is it?

S1 - Jose and the second year representative fought 

S3 - really!

S1 - yes, and they said Jose lost. They said the second year was strong, Jose didn't do anything. It is said that Jose suffered a lot of damage

S3 - how did Jose lose? does that mean he is no longer the representative of first year?

S1 - I heard that the name of the second year representative is Seth Martinez, he said that he will be the representative of the 1st and 2nd year

S3 - is that so!? Let's leave it, nothing will change. No matter which one of them becomes the representative, nothing will happen

"jay heard everything the students talked about but jay just ignored it and quickly entered the room"

"while jay was entering the door, he bumped into roy"

roy - argh!

jay - s~sorry I didn't see you right away, I was in a hurry

roy - it's okay, don't think about that 

jay - is that so s~sorry again

"When Jay came in, he noticed that Jose was not in his seat"

jay - roy why isn't Jose here?

roy - Don't you know the news that is spreading throughout the campus? 

jay - Is that the one where Jose and the 2nd year representative fought? I heard it while I was going to school

roy - yes, that's right, it is said that Jose suffered a lot of damage and he did not accept that he lost

jay - is that so, I'm sorry I bumped into you again earlier

roy - ahh no That's fine, I'm Roy by the way

jay - I'm jay

(shakes hands)

"lunch time" 

jay - jose is gone, no one will take my food and money

(says this in his mind)

roy - why are you the only one eating here, jay?

jay - nothing, I just want to eat alone and I don't have any friends either 

roy - is that so hmmm ok let's eat together, I'll eat here next to you if that's okay with you?

jay - yes you can (smiling)

"while they were eating, the two of them happily chatted, and in his whole life as a high school student, he only experienced this now and he had a new friend." 

"while jay is going home"

jay - I can't believe that Jose lost, there is someone stronger than him. and because of that I am happy that he did not go to school

(jay's stomach suddenly boils)

jay - ahh I'm hungry, what can I eat at home? ... Grandma I'm home

Lola teresita - oh jay, come, I've prepared something for you, are you hungry?

jay - yes, grandma, I'm hungry

Lola teresita - why are you happy today, jay

jay - nothing  grandma hehe

(Jose didn't go to school today that's why I'm happy hehe)

"said It in mind"

jay - grandma, I'm going to rest in my room, you should rest too. btw thank you for the food.

Grandma teresita - I'll just wash the dishes and I'll take a rest when I'm done

"while he's in the room" 

jay - I'm happy because Jose isn't there and I made a new friend, I hope he won't be at school tomorrow either
