25 Dying

"Today is too quiet."

Lim Zhen Cong, who is standing outside the classroom said to himself, he placed his ear to the door and yet there isn't even a squeak.

His hand touched the doorknob. "Weird, it's neither hot nor cold." He said.

"Maybe they are sleeping?" Lim Zhen Cong asked himself, without wasting any more time; he kicked down the door creating a loud bang.

"Wake up! It is time for class to start!" He shouts as he walked towards the group's table.

"Hey… get up…" Chong Xi Kang told the rest but soon, he himself fell back down on the table.

Their bodies are now skinny and pale while dark circles are present under their eyes.

"Maybe this will wake Koh Zi Hong up." Lim Zhen Cong said once more as he walks towards Koh Zi Hong side.

"I'm going to borrow Hitomi-chan to the toilet for a while, is that okay with you?"

No reaction came from Koh Zi Hong's lifeless body so Lim Zhen Cong took the body pillow away and whispered into Koh Zi Hong's ear.

"Then I'm also going to take your phone and dump it into the toilet. All that progress on your games is going down the toilet soon."

Still, no response coming from Koh Zi Hong, seeing this Lim Zhen Cong quietly places Hitomi-chan back into Koh Zi Hong's embrace.

Suddenly he hears mumbling sounds coming from Lee Kai Wen's mouth, he quickly moved his ear closer to Lee Kai Wen's mouth and listened.

"Y…= mx…+…C! Arggh leave me alone!" Lee Kai Wen shouted as he waved his arms around.

Lim Zhen Cong quickly grabs his hand to stop him from hurting anyone then he told him. "You are at physics tuition not Add Math so calm down."

"Physics tuition? Arggh Lim Zhen Cong's hairy ass! Don't come closer!" Lee Kai Wen shouted again as he breaks free from Lim Zhen Cong's grasp.

"Damn brats, wake up now!" With a quick tug, Lim Zhen Cong pulled away the table causing the five of them to tumble down to the floor.

"What is going on is the tuition centre going to explode?" John Ng who just woke up asked.

"Explode your head, now tell you why are you all dying?" Lim Zhen Cong asked with his back scratcher in hand.

"Homework."

"Oral test."

"Sports competitions."

"My favourite AV actress retried."

"My game newest update sucks."

"Loh Qi Xuan still didn't notice me."

"I slept too much."

"Except for the first three, the rest fits you all to a Tee." Lim Zhen Cong who is relief that his students aren't dying yet told them his opinion on their reasons.

Chong Xi Kang suddenly raised his hand and told Lim Zhen Cong. "Sir, I'm actually participating in a sports competition."

"I had been training for ages." Chong Xi Kang said as he showed them the results of his training by flexing his muscles.

"Yea, other people come here to learn physics while you come here to do exercise. Do you think that this is a gym?" Lim Zhen Cong asked as he beats up Chong Xi Kang.

"Well, at least you all aren't dying here." Lim Zhen Cong told the rest as he threw Chong Xi Kang out the classroom.

Tears started to fall down their cheeks as they feel touched by their teacher's words.

"Sir, you really care so much about us?" They ask Lim Zhen Cong as tears continued to flow like a river.

"Of course, if you all die here, nobody will be coming here to study."

"A haunted tuition centre is bad for the wallet in my pocket."

End of week 27.
