Chapter 27 Real House

I started running in the forest, far away from anyone. I didn't bring any vehicle with me, I don't want her to reach someone when she's awake. After almost 6 hours of running and passing through the mountains, I looked around and was satisfied, even with her flash movement 2 hours is not enough to reach people. Then, I let The Silencer took over.

I looked around to see that I'm standing on a road it's only three miles away from school. I looked at my clock it's 1 am, she took over for three hours, I can't blame her, I didn't get enough pain to satisfy my own body.

I run back towards the school. When I'm a hundred meters away from the school gate, I heard a car running towards me it was still far and can't be seen yet from the curve of the road and trees that blocked it. So, I run back towards the trees and hide behind them.

It's the same car I saw last night. The car went towards the gate and the guards let it in. Coby is still a student, I'm sure the guys with him are students too. But, why did the guards just let them in and probably out of the campus?

This is a boarding school and no one can get in and out without the head's permission. Head. They are connected to the head because I've seen it happen for two consecutive nights already, most especially not in a normal time.

It's not my business so I decided to go back to the room. The moment I opened it, I picked my clothes and started walking towards the bathroom. I sensed Drena sit up but I ignored her.

After I took my bath and wear my sleeping clothes, pajamas, and a shirt, I walked out of the bathroom and walked silently towards my bed.

"I've been trying to resist asking a question about you." She stated lowly.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" I simply asked.

"Waiting for my friend because I'm worried sick to where she went. The campus is so dangerous to go around at night. I've been also telling lies to Cassy just for that friend. But all she did is making me worried. She came back but it's already dawn and her clothes are so dirty like she's been rolling around the campus. I'm getting crazy!" She said nonstop in a low but hard voice as she messed her hair using her hands. While Cassy sleeps like oil.

"I'm fine. Sleep tight." I lay down on my bed.

"I don't think I can." She lay back down.

"Thank you. Goodnight Drena." I said in a whisper.

I sensed her smile. "Night Claire." As we close our eyes and sleep.

Days have passed, most likely a week has passed. I decided not to go to my classes, every time the two went out for their classes, I got out of the campus using my motorcycle to travel around, and look for something that can catch my attention. Or run around the forest, sometimes I tried taking trees using my bare hands.

I am creating a house in the middle of the forest far from the school, I ensured that no one can walk by. It's near a little lake, so it's peaceful.

I traveled around to buy things that I needed in my house. Saturday and Sunday, the days that students can get home, the two thought I was home but I've been trying to finish my house.

It's Monday, I looked at the time, 2 am. I went outside the house which is near a lake. Satisfied with what I see. It's simple but the way it was created it's pretty, if the area around is included, the view can take a breath away. I saw the area when I was running around and decided to build a house. And this is it.

The inside is already complete with a bedroom and a bathroom, a little kitchen, and a dining table. There's no electricity but I bought a fluorescent light with many extra batteries. It's what I can call my real house. I already have my basic needs and especially my weapons in here.

I went home the other night, I made sure no one can sense, thankful Carlo was not there. No one dared to come uninvited in Tarre's mansion or even getting near it, they are all scared. Anyone who came near the mansion uninvited died.

I took the weapons I can bring because for two years this will be my rest house. I've been sleeping here for two mornights and I had a good sleep that I can call.

I locked my house and jumped in my black Ducati as I ride to the secret hideout and hide it. I run towards the school and when I'm near the road, I saw the car again entering the gate. I ignored it and went to our room.

I looked at the two sleeping peacefully and then I looked at Drena, she's back to her old self again, smiley and cheery.

She has so many questions but she's trying her best to set aside her curiosity. She might be thinking she will lose me if she knows. I took a bath and wear my pajamas and shirt as I went to sleep.

On the way to our first class, the two are still bickering.

"Claire," Cassy called, I looked at her "what time did you come last night? I didn't feel you coming," she asked curiously.

"3 am" I simply stated.

"Did you have difficulties escaping from your parents again?" She asked. I nodded.

"Ow!" She reacted, her eyes are a bit sad. Drena is quiet all the while, she's afraid to ask about me.

"We're here! In our separation path." Drena smiled widely spreading her arms like she introduced a product.

"I'll be going now," I said as I started walking.

"See you at lunch, Claire!" Cassy shouted.

"Yeah! We'll be waiting!" Drena shouted too.

I raised my hand signaling 'okay'.
