Reach for the Sky: Because You’re Young

etty and pleasing to the eye.

”The girls shoes must be made of chocolate. Its disgusting. ”

Before Raka ”really left from there ”, he was stopped with a sound.

”You over there, wait! ”

When he turned to the source of the voice, he knew that it was the girl who had called him.

”I? ”

”Yes, you. Come here! ”

Seriously, I must have been told to lick his shoes.

Raka could not help but have to surrender, approached the girl.

”What? If you call me to lick your shoes, Ill refuse—yeah, even if they
e chocolate. ”

”No, my shoes are ordinary. You
e wearing school shoes too, aren you? Wait, why am I even talking about that? ”

As the girl spoke, Rakas eyes fell on the boys who were crawling, trying to reach for the girls shoes to lick.

”Too bad for them, they look like office slaves—like to lick their boss. ”

After Raka said that, his eyes shifted, from the beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings to the pretty face of the girl.

”So what? ” Raka asked.

”You
e the new student from class E, right? ”

”Yeah. ”

”Oh, I see. Its my first time seeing you. Im just warning you, you be careful—don get involved in the problems of these students. ”

”Okay. ”

Raka answered so simply, making the girl annoyed with him.

”Is that all your answer? Don you want to thank me for warning you? ”

”Oh… thanks… umm… ”

”Clara, my name is Clara Anisa. ”

”Thank you, Clara Anisa. ”

”Just call Clara. ”

”Thank you, Clara. ”

”Well, good. Then now… ”

Clara turned her gaze to the three boys who were about to lick their shoes. And suddenly, she stomped on the heads of the three boys hard.

”Stop it now, you bastard! Its over, you guys aren that guys slave anymore since the bell rang. So stop licking my shoes! ”

Raka don know why Clara was angry. She suddenly got angry, and it made Raka confused about what happened.

”I know you guys are useless slaves, but at the very least, you don follow what that person tells you to do. I don want my feet to be dirty because of your saliva. Understand!? ”

After Clara had spoken harshly enough, they complied and began to move away from Clara.

”What happened to them? ”

Raka asked that because he was confused.

”Ah. The story is quite long. Ill explain later. How about I explain on the way? ”

”Okay. ”

Raka agreed to that. He agreed spontaneously, or perhaps out of curiosity about what had happened to them just now.

They walked together, changed their shoes, and left the school.

Feeling compelled to speak, Clara opened her mouth.

”I hate this, hate this so much. ”

”What is it? ”

”I don understand why that person keeps insisting on getting me. Ive rejected the guy several times, but he keeps on targeting me and even getting his slaves to lick me. Isn that outrageous? I mean, they
e human too, right? So why do they seem inferior to that person, and why would they want to be made to do that? ”

”Who is it? ”

”He is my senior who has been after me since 1 year ago. Ive rejected him several times, but he keeps forcing me to be his girlfriend. I don want to have a boyfriend, but he insisted on telling me to be his girlfriend. I know that Im cute and pretty, but its not like this is the right way to get to me. ”

”…Is that so? ”

”He ordered people to guard me as if I belonged to him. And now, hes telling the three boys to lick my shoes every school hour. I hate this. I want to learn, not be a bad girl. I hate this popularity of myself. ”

Clara, a cute and pretty girl who has always been in the top position in school, has stated that she hates her cute and pretty self. She resented that she had put the three boys down, licking her shoes only on orders from the senior, which Clara always denied.

Clara wanted to do something about it, but she was at a loss for what to do. She neither could nor had the control to do much. She has a limit to what she can do. She could only endure and continue to survive the senior.

Clara is not comfortable with the conditions she experienced at school. Only when the doorbell rings can she enjoy her time. At school, she would always be followed by the seniors the slaves ordered. Even now, the slaves were doing obscene things, constantly licking Claras shoes.

”I think you should just tell the truth. You told him that you weren comfortable with all this, ” Raka said.

”Yes, I already said that, but that person keeps doing this and that to have me. I wonder whether that person still has a brain or not. Is he a human or a boss? ”

To be honest, Raka didn know what to do. He didn even know what had happened to the school herself, and he felt that something was wrong with all of this. He couldn help Clara, because he had just entered the school environment in search of peace.

”Looks like you had a tough day. ”

”Yeah, thats how it is. Im sick of all of this. ”

”What if you make him hate you? Maybe that way, that person can get fed up and no longer target you. ”

”How to? ”

Raka gives good advice to Clara. Even so, Raka needed time to find a way to overcome this. It took him at least 30 seconds to answer Claras question.

After Raka thought for 30 seconds, he looked at Clara and opened his mouth.

”How about you be my girlfriend? ”

”Eh? ”
