"Do you?" Sajun met Bala's glare as he clenched the sides of the table.
Everyone could feel the tension in the air thicken. Ahmad put his hand on Bala's shoulder in attempt to calm him down. Bala shrugged it off, annoyed by the gesture.
A small whimper could be heard coming from the floor where the boys stood. A small circle was emerging around the boys. Although school was out, many would stay at the canteen to study before their co-curricular activities started.
On the floor lay Darren with blood oozing from his nose forever staining his crisp, white school shirt. The handkerchief that Chong held to Darren's nose helped only to cover the obviously broken nose.
Sajun spit on the ground next to Darren. He turned to the crowd and then back to Bala, "If I ever see that piece of shit again, I will break a table over his head!" Sajun's grip on the table tightened and with all his might from the anger, he threw the table towards Bala.
Bala ducked as the table smashed to the ground.
"He told the truth. You deserve it Sajun. You deserve to be expelled!"
"I'll see you in hell! I try to make you happy and you get me expelled? Wait! You will get it! You understand?" Sajun kicked the broken table.
The crowd almost ceremoniously made way for Sajun as he left the scene fuming.
Darren whimpered again. "Did I do the right thing?"
"Yes..." Bala helped Darren up.

Rumours were that Sajun finally got caught and was sent to juvenile correction centre after being found to be in possession of 352 Ecstasy pills.
