The Boy (across the classroom)

C h a p t e r - 3 6

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The next thing I knew was that I was gasping for air.

All the panic I felt from running tired me out.

Looking to my left, Kara was there.

He seemed like it was nothing to him.

You know, running so fast like that.

I don't even know where we are!

This is a place where I haven't been to, everything around me doesn't seem familiar.

At all.

I'm kinda scared.

I have no absolute idea what's gonna happen to me.

"You alright?" Kara tapped my shoulder, and I looked up at him.

The sun was causing his shadow to cast over me.

I felt so small compared to him.

Well, um, when our heights are compared, he's 30 centimeters taller.

Or something.

It just looked like he was much, much taller than me.

Or the boy.

"Y-Yes!! I'm alright!!" I exclaimed, startled.

"Whew." Kara sounded relieved, "I thought you were too overwhelmed."

Overwhelmed?

"Well, anyway, you don't have anything else to do right?" He puckered his lips.

I nodded slowly, unsurely.

"You're gonna be with me for the whole day, too." He blinked with anticipation.

"B-But well, why did you bring me all out here for?" I made sure to hide my worry.

"Se..cret." He paused before finishing his sentence.

Wait, was that even a sentence?

The rainy clouds from before weren't in sight.

We must've ran a far distance.

Also, doesn't seem like Kara has a bad intention.

I'll just have to trust him on this one.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

We spent our time walking through the small forests,

There was no more sun, only the moons and stars stood visible at the night sky.

It was night.

I didn't ask questions.

Kara was looking forward with such glee I couldn't tell what will happen.

As I was lost in my own thoughts,

I lost sight of Kara.

Looking around, I panicked.

"K-Kara?" I mumbled, I was too scared alone in the dark.

Before I lost all trust on him, a hand grabbed mine.

"Hey, you almost got lost there." It was Kara, he look worried.

But he still had a faint smile.

He led me to the destination whilst holding my hand.

I wouldn't help but blush.

His hands were so.. cold. Yet, they were warm.

I have no idea how to explain it.

It was warm but cold at the same time.

"We're here!" He said with a wide smile before showing me...
