Viktor saw his hand moving towards him, but it was no different than a snail's speed in his perspective.
However, he simply shouted in panic as he pushed away Leo's arm, "No, don't!"
It seemed as if Viktor only tried to avoid his attack in panic, but Leo felt as if a bull pushed him from the side as he slipped backward and stumbled upon the girls, making them fall as well.
Since the floor was wet, all of them found it hard to maintain their footing as Leo fell on them with full force.
"Ahhh!!"
"Fuck!"
"Owww!!"
"Waaah...my back!!"
The four looked quite comical as their bodies laid on top of each other, finding it hard to get up after feeling cramps in certain parts of their body.
Ron was the only one who managed to move fast enough and also because he was standing a bit to the side.
He was shocked by what he saw since all he saw was Dorian pushing away Leo in a panic, and luckily he was able to avoid the punch while sending Leo tumbling onto the girls.
He knew Dorian was tall and maybe had the advantage of easily pushing away Leo, but Leo was still no pushover and not skinny either. How did he get pushed like a ragdoll then?
He thought that it was a fluke and stepped to the side where the floor wasn't wet and rushed at Dorian since he didn't exactly find Ron's urine being sprayed all over him entertaining.
He had joined in pranking this boring couple, but instead, he and his group got pranked upon.
Viktor shook his head inwardly why these guys were so hot-headed, but he decided not to make a move when Sayana suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ron's hand before twisting it while tripping him to the ground.
Viktor's brows raised since he didn't know that Sayana knew how to fight. He was sure that most others would get fooled by her quiet and reserved demeanor, thinking that she doesn't know how to fight.
"Wow...amazing…" Viktor mumbled, making Sayana blush. But she quickly pulled his hand and said, "Let's run before they get up!"
"Okay!" Viktor anxiously said as he let Sayana lead him out of the complex.
"Hey! Don't run, you fuckers!" Leo bellowed, but just as he tried to get up, he felt a cramp in his legs as he fell on the girls again, who were somehow trying to get up.
The book owner came outside and shouted, "What the hell are you brats doing here???"
Sayana couldn't contain her smile as she saw how all five of them got into trouble while she and Dorian were already out of the complex by now.
She didn't look back and continued to pull Dorian along with her for quite some distance till she was sure that they were quite far.
But realizing that she had been pulling along poor Dorian, she suddenly released his wrist and said, "I-I am sorry. I didn't realize I—"
"It's fine. Still, your friends are quite mean...to try such a dirty prank like that. I mean, are they really your friends or…?
Sayana waved her hands, "Of course, not. They are no friends of mine. Just some sadistic people who enjoy bullying people."
Sayana frowned as she continued, "How vile. They actually mixed urine into it, hoping I would drink it. How disgusting! Why couldn't they just mind their own business? Even in high school, they wouldn't just leave me alone."
"They caused you trouble in school? That's how they knew you?" Viktor asked concernedly.
Sayana waved her hand realizing that she said too much out of frustration, "Not really. I just didn't pay them any mind, and there was not much they could do to me in school anyway."
"Oh. But what happened just now was quite funny. The way they fell over each other while having that smelly drink stick to their clothes. I am sure they would have a hard time explaining what happened when they reach their homes," Viktor said with a chuckle.
Sayana giggled, "Hehe, you did quite well back there. I was afraid whether they would have hurt you. But fortunately, you were able to push him back."
Viktor shook his head with a smile, "I think you were the one who was amazing back there. The way you took down the last guy was so awesome. How did you do that? Who taught you?"
"Aunt Taya did. In fact, my mother is way better than me since she trained a lot under Aunt Taya and other experts," Sayana said with a proud smile.
"Wow, your mother also knows too? I never knew that. I guess both mother and daughter are strong and amazing. I wish I was like you," Viktor said with a sigh.
However, inwardly, Viktor couldn't help but wonder if Sayana was as 'fit' as her mother.
Sayana had a hesitant expression hearing his words but finally asked, "If you want...I can teach you...how to fight."
"Really?" Viktor asked with sparkling eyes.
Sayana slightly chuckled as she parted her side hair, "Yeah...why not? I am sure it will be helpful for you."
"Thanks so much, Saya. You are a really good friend," Viktor said happily.
"Hey, don't mention it, especially when we are friends," Sayana casually said. And inwardly, she felt as if her regular and college days were going to be great ahead after making a good friend she never expected to have.
She then looked at Dorian and lowered her head briefly as she asked in a low voice, "But...you were so impressive back there. I mean, I never thought you would talk them down like that, especially that Leo. You even made him fall...that's really badass, especially when he was quite a famous bully in the past."
Viktor scratched his head and said with flushed cheeks, "Of course, they dared to call you names and everything. I just couldn't stand it and told them who they really are. E-Even if they seemed scary, I just couldn't stay silent."
Sayana felt her heart soften hearing his words and said as she curled up her fingers, "I see...Anyways...I wanted to say thanks for standing up for me, uhm..."
She also felt that Viktor was quite straightforward when it came to things like these, telling whatever things come to his mind in such situations.
"Of course, isn't that what friends are for?" Viktor innocently asked and continued, "So no need of thanks just like you said."
Sayana pulled at her collars with fidgety hands as she softly smiled. She then raised her head as she remembered something and asked in an evasive tone, "Before...you know...why did you tell them that you were my boyfriend?"
Victor said with a thoughtful expression, "Uhmm, isn't it because I am a boy and you are my friend? So, boyfriend? Or a boy who is a friend? Did I say something wrong?"
Sayana pressed together her lips slightly, but then she smiled at him and said, "No, not at all. But I think it would be better for you if you mention me as just a 'friend' in case someone asks in the future."
Sayana now realized why he said it so confidently before and thought that it was natural considering how he might not be used to some modern terms. And so, even though she was having complicated thoughts about it, she felt that it was right to correct him in case any misunderstandings caused him problems in the future.
She felt that he would anyway learn what it means when he enters college, and she didn't want to make things embarrassing between them.
Viktor showed a confused expression and then nodded, "I like how 'boyfriend' sounds. Anyway, I will take your advice."
However, inwardly he smiled as he thought, 'But Viktor might think otherwise.'
It was almost six as the two decided to wander around and even had some soft drinks before heading towards the Snow Mansion.
The two now seemed freer around each other, merrily talking about various things as they stepped inside the house.
However, their smiles froze when they saw Tiana getting up from the sofa after switching off the TV and walking towards them with a glowering expression.
