Chapter 32 Fishy

Three days have passed and every morning the two went out for their classes. While I go to my house in the middle of the forest. I have so many stocks of foods and snacks in there and also cooking utensils. I used a gas stove for cooking.

To satisfy my body, I just run and run.

I went back before the two gets home. And at night I tried going out and getting information which is not useful at all. It's like they're not existing, all the files about them vanished.

I'm resisting the urge to ask any of the two or they will get suspicious. No choice. They're coming, it's afternoon and I've been waiting for them as I read a book leaning on my bed's headboard.

The door opened and the two get in nagging about something.

"Adrian is getting on my nerve!" Drena sounds frustrated.

"Also Coby, he thinks he's the most handsome person in the entire world, he's just handsome!" Cassy throws her hands in the air sounding frustrated too.

"Boys! I hate boys!" Drena went towards the kitchen while stomping her feet.

Cassy came to me "Claire!" She jumped on my bed like a child. "Coby's been bullying me!" She's a child.

"He hit my head with a book once and then he's been glaring at me every time we passed each other. He's agh!" She nagged messing her hair. She seems like telling her mom that someone stole her lollipop.

"By the way, Claire," Drena said walking towards me while holding a towel in her hand, I think she's calm now as I see it. "Xenon has been asking about you." She stated and Cassy suddenly grinned.

"Why," I stated blankly, looking back at the book I'm reading. Why would Xenon ask about me?

"I don't know." Drena shrugged "I told him, you're taking a rest." She added before she went inside the bathroom, the moment she closed the door, I looked at Cassy who keeps grinning at me.

"I smell something fishy." She said giggling.

"I don't smell a fish," I stated which made her pout. Did I say something wrong?

"Hmmph!" She got out of my bed but before she started walking.

"Cassy," I called her name, which made her turned to face me wearing a wide smile.

"Yes?" She asked softly.

"My brother wants me to come to his birthday on Monday but I need a permission to go out coming from the head. Can you tell me his name?" I asked, but my voice held blank. It's the truth, Carlo reminded me yesterday.

Tch, every time his birthday was coming he always do everything so I won't forget it. I don't think he will ever get matured.

"Of course!" Cassy beamed happily which made me smirk secretly, "hhmmm, I just saw him once during the Welcome Ceremony. The name goes like..." She said while thinking.

I sighed, seems like she forgot the name of the School Head.

Welcome Ceremony... I remember that was the day before the first day of class and I wasn't there.

"Aha! Marco Baron! That's it!" She said clapping her hands like she just won a medal. Good, she's still useful.

"Thank you." I blankly stated, well, she deserves it. And she smiled widely.

I've been lurking around this campus so I know where the School Head Office located at. The campus is so wide, at the back of these modern buildings is a little lake, next to it, is a big forest. But the moment I tried running around that forest I saw old buildings far from each other, hidden from the trees. It seems like, it was there centuries ago. That's why I prefer running around the forest outside of this campus. This campus is creepy and suspicious, but it's not my business so I just ignored it.

The Head's office is on the back corner level of the buildings of this campus. I did not go in there because I have sensed many men inside guiding all the corners of his office. To think that his office is one hell of a building.

If I go inside, absolutely not sneaking because if that Xenon is inside the building I will be noticed, but killing them all is the best option.

The most dangerous and difficult place to sneak in, is the Tarre's Mansion. Even I, was caught because of Carlo, and my mom is very dangerous same as my father, including the helpers and workers, they are experts and the best fighters.

That office is a piece of cake, if, Xenon is not inside of the building. Because he can sense my presence.

I decided that tomorrow I will go inside the head's office. I wanted to go and meet that Marco Baron.

We were on our way towards our class now. The moment we passed the Insigma Fighters' Mansion, I could see girls screaming and running towards it.

The two started walking faster and I just followed them with the same pace, not really caring for their reasons. Suddenly, I heard Adrian calling Drena but they were blocked by so many girls. I guess Drena didn't heard it since they are so far and the screaming background from the other girls covered it.

Before we separated on our path,

"Should we really have to eat in the restaurant later?" Cassy asked with worry. Probably afraid to have another encounter with Daniela.

"There's no place we can go to eat our lunch Cassy, and there's no time for me to cook," Drena answered sounding so worried.

"So, let's see each other at lunch then since we have no choice," Cassy stated with evident of worry. She looked at me in approval, so I nodded.

After the conversation, I went to my first class. The class went well but in the middle of the lesson, a student came in. Coby. He walked straight and sits beside me.

"Claire!" He exclaimed lowly, I ignored him as I watched the view outside. "How's your rest, huh?" He said teasing me. Silence is all I gave him.

"Someone has been looking for you." His voice became serious which made me face him.

"At last!" He laughed which caused him a glare from the teacher, he stopped laughing. And then the teacher continues discussing her lesson.

"I can't see any bruise from your face, you healed so fast." He said grinning. I looked back at the window and the bell rang.

"See you later." He stated smiling when I passed through him.

Tch. I started going to my next class. And my classes ended peacefully, as usual.

I am now on my way towards the restaurant. The moment I opened the door, the students started whispering and talking to each other while glancing at me, I ignored them, maybe it's because of what happened last Monday.

As usual, Drena and Cassy were already here inside the restaurant talking to each other. When Cassy saw me, she waved her hand so I could recognize their presence, Drena looked at me smiling. I walked at them and sit in the chair. The same table from last time.

The table is rectangular and we sat on every side. I sat in the right, Drena is in the left wherein the door is on sight while Cassy is in the middle width where students can pass by at her back.

We started eating...

"I hope we can eat peacefully," Cassy said hoping as she drinks her juice.

Suddenly the door bursts open. And followed by silence.

"I think, we can't," Drena mumbled as she breathed out.

Then, I smelled him. I freeze for a second but started eating in silence after.
