6 Fisher Kid

First PoV

I sighed in my bed, everyone is asleep now and something is going on with my brain that doesn't let me sleep.

Now thinking, everything is going great since i came here. Sure, the directress is being a bother but she's always away anyway, rarely can even see her fat face.

If I get accepted tomorrow, it will be the first step to my plan. With a high payment if you get a big fish, which when I observe earlier, there are hoards of large fishes. And surprisingly, it was pretty easy too. It will benefit me largely. Because I don't have any money to buy my magic books, nor wands, nor anything. I might do some other jobs if possible.

I don't know if the meditation, which now I call core enhancer, is doing its effect. It might be, I'm not that strong when I wake up here.

Maybe I can't sleep since it's inevitable to think crucial about my future since who doesn't if they know what will gonna happen..

I had mixed feelings back then. Regret, helpless, anger, depress. It was all negative feelings, but come to think of it, aren't they too harsh to destroy a weak human's life?

They, by that, I mean everybody in my year. Isn't Hermione smart, why did she go on with the flow of hating me when they don't even have evidence? Isn't Harry full of justice? Why didn't he let me explain before going through with their thoughts?

It was all because of a certain student accusing me as one of Voldemort's underlings. Underling my ass.

Then gossips were made that if I didn't help them, such deaths like what Remus, Sirius, and all got, were my fault.

I mean, aren't they too irrational?

Atleast, if I was a Death Eater, say that it was 'partly' my fault. Not all. Were they too troubled by Voldemort they've gone out of the box?

It makes my blood rise up, those thoughts are better to be forgotten. But that's the motivation of my life here. I won't be weak for them to play, for me to be played. I will create my own decisions, and my own self.

But I'm thankful for the one who killed me. That way, I had a chance to get up again.

It's payback time.

°°°°°°°°°°

"ahHHHHhHHHha"

I did my exaggerated yawn as I jump out my bed, prevent me from sleeping more. I quickly rush to the bathroom to wash my body.

The test is early in the morning, 8 am to be exact, because it's the time where workers work in the job.

It's 6:58 exactly when I wake up, good job me. I asked Justin to wake me up if I didn't wake up in time. But seems I had to wake him up.

I get close to him, but Tasia here beside him is snoring loudly. Much for a gangster type girl.

I ignored the snoring girl, slapping Justin once or twice, and that made him bolt out the bed immediately.

"Wha- Who is that!?"

He yelled in rubbing his face, which wake up Tasia also.

'Are they all light sleepers?'

I asked myself. If it was me, you would have to suffocate me with a pillow before i wake up.

"Yah! #$&f-$ Shut your mouth if you don't want to get it!"

She shouted at Justin, this reminds me of the Weaslys for some reason.

Then she stared at me, with obvious eye bags, and a disgusting dry saliva in the side of her mouth.

"Uh? Coma boyo?"

She uttered. Making Justin snort.

Coma boyo? Who? Me?

I just sigh and got out of the door.

"Get your ass up now. We're late, it's already 7:58" I lied to Justin.

He got panicky, he's a very time management guy for a guy in his age.

"Wha? What then!? Should we shower the same time?"

He blurts out in rush. Not realizing what he said.

I facepalmed. I banged the door close as I head to the shower, and no one was showering yet. Thankfully.

Meanwhile, Tasia hysterically laugh.

"Gay? I like it"

Justin blushed grabbing his towel and heading downstairs.

°°°°°°°°°

I was asked to just sit in one of the chairs in the room. I was in the hut again. And with the windows, I can see the view of how the fishermen are doing their job. Justin came home already as I sent him off, saying I can be fine already by myself. I just asked him if he can make a reason to why I'm here. And if I do get accepted, I will lie about my payment.

I've meditated for a bit before we got here, and it was a good choice to do so. I was more active and didn't felt exhaustion when we got here.

There were 5 fishermen I see in the view. All of them old, and I think the young ones are sent far away.

They all had their hats to cover them from the sun, and they got their jackets.

I was angst to be taught by someone already.

And suddenly, the man I met before, I don't even know the name, came up holding two rods with the gear already prepared.

I smiled ecstatic,

"Here, hold this carefully. You break it, pay it"

He said shortly, but he hesitated before continuing.

"Also, try to be quiet. We got visitors coming"

He said again. This time the end.

I just quietly followed, like what he said, and I did hear some car noises in between the forest. The visitors perhaps.

The fishermen took notice of me and just smiled slightly. I sighed, at least they're not the bullying type of guys. Some of them are pretty old, probably why.

The rod I'm holding, I'm not use to it, but I can handle the weight, if I estimate, even if there's a fish in the hook.

We're in the edge of the river, I see some just sitting in the bare ground, some have chairs, but seems the man mentoring me is pretty simple and sits on the rocks.

He sat, I sat. And the explain starts.

He holds his rod explaining the parts of it. Which is pretty simple and understandable. No question needed, as he ask if I get it. I only nodded.

He then throw it in the water, another explaining comes. This time, was pretty long. As he explained some tricks to me. And to analyze, I did see those tricks when I stared at the fishermen outside.

Since he demonstrated each, i understood easily. Some even I tried. And hey, I succeeded.

It was time for me to now do it.

I straighten up my position, straight body and then I threw the rod in the water, doing the exact right things he taught me.

Minutes passed, and I smirk as I felt something in my hook. I slowly did the procedure of getting the fish out. And after that, I smiled up to my ears after getting a big one.

"Good job"

The man also smiled, maybe surprise a little.

"Well, for the final one. I need you again to dive in, many fishermen a while ago complained about your built, I saw what you did yesterday..."

He said to me, and lowering his voice, he whispers.

"Show em' what you got boy"

He sound like a prideful father, and that made me gulp.

I need to perform well, Justin and this man will be greatly disappointed if they help me up to this point, and I just fail it like that.

I exhale, inhale. I got my shirt off, showing my white yet thin body. The fishermen saw it and immediately was let down.

But it didn't bother me as I bravely dive into the water, and happily, I felt the same feeling again. Its saying to just flow with the water.

I opened my eyes and seems the core enhancer did enhance my senses. There was a lot of fishes, and easily, I grabbed one of the largest in the group.

I immediately got to the surface, holding up my fish that I caught. The man smiled at me as they others widen their eyes a bit flabbergasted.

Unknown to me, some took notice of how I did well, too well for a kid...
