Chapter Text
The alarm rang at six am in the morning, Halilintar turned it off irritably. He didn't remember setting the alarm so early.
No, it wasn't him who set it, it was Halilintar, the other Halilintar was the one who set it.
Halilintar got up irritably, his morning mood was fully reflected now. It feels like he’ll smash the alarm clock on the bedside table in the next second. God knows why the other Halilintar got up so early.
It can't be to cooking breakfast for the whole family, right?
Halilintar thought silently in his heart, then paused. After all, this is very likely.
Today is the first day that he and the other Halilintar, the unloved Halilintar, exchanged their life.
Being woken up by the alarm clock early in the morning, it's Monday also, which this isn’t a good sign, Halilintar thought silently in his heart.
Others won’t care that he didn't make breakfast, right?
Halilintar thought to himself, before, their parents cooked and the seven of them take turns to help them out, one person per day for a week. Today is Monday, meaning Gempa is the one should be helping to prepare the breakfast.
Halilintar couldn't sleep at all now, but he’s very resentful. If someone offended him, that person would be dead.
Halilintar tossed and turned in bed and finally fell asleep. When he woke up, or was woken up by the noises down stairs, it was already seven thirty. He would be late if he doesn’t get up now.
It didn't matter to him whether he went to school or not. He graduated early and was an international student who had just got back home. He usually stayed at home and had nothing to do. If he wasn't too idle, he wouldn't go to school.
Halilintar got up slowly, not realizing that how dramatic it was downstairs.
"Hali? Why are you not up before?"
After getting dressed, he went downstairs to face the questioning from his mom. Halilintar shrugged indifferently, not realizing the dissatisfaction in the other party's tone. Perhaps he realized it, but just didn't bother to care.
Halilintar is a rebellious child. Although he looks so calm and cool, he is actually the most rebellious one among the seven of them, but it's not obvious.
All these are known by his family. Of course, the family of the other Halilintar doesn't know.
"Where's breakfast?"
His mom immediately got to the point and questioned about breakfast.
Halilintar turned to look at her, with a puzzled look on his face. Her tone was so natural, as if it was his job.
"Breakfast is not my responsibility. Besides, I'm not a chef. Chefs even get paid for cooking."
Halilintar casually retorted her and took out a cup from the cabinet to drink water.
"If you want to eat breakfast, find a way yourself. If you want to be lazy, go out to eat. If you want to save money, make it yourself. This isn’t my job."
Halilintar didn't realize how much impact his words had on others. He didn't even look at them. He waved his hand, yawned, put on his schoolbag, went to the entrance to put on shoes and went out to school.
He bought a sandwich for breakfast. He ate while walking and finally arrived at the classroom before the bell rang.
The rest of the people went out without eating breakfast, after all, they’re almost late. Taufan and others who arrived in the classroom early stood not far from the inner door, talking to the teacher. There was a bucket of water on the slightly open door. Halilintar, who didn't realize the danger approaching, pushed the door open.
Of course, he didn't get wet.
Instinctively, he dodged the bucket of water and even kicked it, so that the bucket of water fell accurately on Solar.
No one saw how he did it, his movements were too fast, Halilintar himself didn't even know how he did it himself. After training in TAPOPS for a long time, he could react instinctively to attacks, and couldn't be control.
The bucket fell beside Solar, and he was soaked from head to toe. He’s stunned and didn't expect this to happen.
The instigator was a classmate in the class. They gathered in groups and always gathered together to bully the other Halilintar.
But unfortunately, Halilintar wasn’t him.
"Halilintar!"
Solar gritted his teeth and shouted his name. Halilintar turned his head coldly and gives him a slight smirk.
"Why are you shouting at me? It's not me who did this."
Halilintar spread his hands to show that he didn't know either. After being woken up by the damn alarm clock at six o'clock in the morning, he wanted to fight with anyone, even Solar, he didn't get along with him anyway.
Halilintar's peaceful performance was completely different. He wasn’t as calm and aloof as usual. It was obvious how much the morning grumpiness affected a person.
Solar turned his head and looked at the instigator of the prank.
Halilintar certainly didn't miss this move. He guessed that Solar and the others knew that the other Halilintar always gets bullied. It seemed that they were the one who chase after him in to the alley last time. If he hadn't rescued him, he might have been beaten there.
Halilintar frowned slightly, thinking about what to do next.
This big episode ended with the bell for class. The person didn’t get punished for it, but they would definitely not let Halilintar go.
Solar borrowed a some clothes and pants from Gempa and went to the bathroom to change. His eyes fell on Halilintar, which full of unknowing meanings in them.
Halilintar didn't bother to pay attention to him. He’s thinking about how he gets over this boring day.
But he’s wrong. He didn’t get bored at all.
Whether it’s the teacher be picking on him asking him to stand up and solve a math problem that hadn’t been taught in the class yet, or a group of people came to provoke him during lunch time, or Gempa and the others watched him being loudly discussed by others, Halilintar's day wasn’t boring at all.
Halilintar just thought they were particularly childish.
Of course, as an international student who graduated early, he could do all the math problems in class. When he was provoked during lunch, he directly challenged the group of people to a duel. When he was discussed, he directly confronted them in front of them. Halilintar wasn’t afraid at all, even had the momentum to kill them.
He used to be like this in school. Others complained that Halilintar had an oppressive temperament and was difficult to approach. He didn't care at all when the others said it. Now Halilintar thinks it is really an advantage.
He changed so much in a day that everyone thought he was crazy. In order to verify whether it’s true or not, some students even organized others to go and watch Halilintar 1v5. Halilintar turned a deaf ear to all of this, but he didn't expect Blaze and the others to be there, but it seemed that they were there to watch him get humiliated.
Five people fought Halilintar alone, and Halilintar had no chance of winning, but if it’s the other Halilintar. Halilintar is a member of TAPOPS, the strongest among the seven brothers, and 1v5 wasn’t a problem to him.
He didn't even need to use his powers, he could win with his bare hands.
The resentment of the whole morning reached its peak at this time. He knocked the five people to the ground in a few seconds, the people around him were stunned. Then he picked up his schoolbag and turned around and left.
Just after walking a few steps, his phone rang. It was his dad asking him to buy groceries. Halilintar saw it and sent it to Gempa who was still at the duel place.
Gempa saw it and replied with a question mark, but Halilintar didn't reply. Although he saw it, he didn't pay attention to it. After all, Halilintar had reminded Gempa that it was his choice whether to buy groceries or not, and tomorrow's breakfast depended on him.
Gempa certainly didn't realize this. He thought Halilintar will buy the groceries, but he was wrong. The other party didn't go and even ate before going back home.
But these all happened later on.
Although it was only one day of exchange, Halilintar's goal was to reverse everyone's cognition, then turned around and left casually, leaving them to think about why.
Halilintar walked slowly on the road. He didn't know what happened to the other Halilintar. He started to worry a little on the first day of the exchange, but there shouldn't be any problems.
The fact is that Halilintar is right. The other Halilintar experienced love in his world, the love he longed for and the love he deserved.
The other Halilintar even overcame his fear of the ocean and could swim freely in the ocean. He became strong, just like Halilintar himself.
Perhaps if possible, Halilintar would like to see the other Halilintar full of happiness, so that he can know how correct his decision was.
