Chapter 3 : Surprise

What. When. Why. Where. How?

I have so many questions that I can’t answer right now. Tala is now looking at me differently like she’s actually teasing me. What in the world is she doing here?

“You can occupy the seat beside Liam” said by our professor while pointing the empty chair beside me.

I’ve always been alone. I’m already used being alone. How could this happen?

As Tala walks toward her seat everyone from our class started talking and staring at her.

“She’s like a goddess right?”

“I think I already love her”

“Adorable!”

As soon as Tala takes a sit, she gave a quick glance and smiled. She looks so different. Who the hell am I looking actually. I don’t know anymore.

The moment Tala arrived inside the classroom, I can’t concentrate with my studies. I can feel my sweat coming down through my cheeks.

There’s a moment when I was answering my professor’s question and Tala’s eyes were looking at me. I think she’s judging me.

After answering our professor’s question and took a sit, Tala immediately clap her hands slowly that attracts the whole class. Yes! Even our teacher!

“Nice answer! P-A-R-T-N-E-R”

Tala even spelled out the word ‘Partner’ to tease me then smiled. As I look at everyone, the boys started glaring at me like I stole their girlfriend. Even the girls started whispering but they’re not glaring at me. They’re looking at Tala.

I sighed.

There’s a lot of things will happen after this. I should endure this until our school year ends.

As soon as the bell rang, the whole class stood and started gathering here in my place. I can’t take this! I can’t take too much people around me. I feel like I’m already shaking!

My classroom gather here, boys and girls started talking to Tala. They are all curious about her.

“How can you be so beautiful?”

“What is your skin care routine?”

“Do you have a boyfriend?”

“Are you single?”

I should go now and eat my lunch. Even though I wanted to ask Tala so many question, I doubted that I can have the chance to talk to her. She might even not answer it honestly.

The moment I stood up, I can feel my uniform being pulled. I look back and just to see people’s curious and surprised reaction because Tala’s hand is holding my uniform.

“Let’s have a lunch together!” Said Tala with her sparkling golden eyes. I can even smell her strawberry like perfume. Where the hell did she get all the money to buy all of these things?

I was lost for a moment but came back when some of the started coughing, waiting for me to answer. I felt like I’m inside a reality game where I should answer a tough question.

I nodded. Tala started clapping and giving me her adorable smile. Why can’t she be like this at home? I know this is just an act. But I can’t deny that she’s a wonderful girl.

Without me noticing it, Tala grabs my left arm and started pulling me out of the people. As I look at our classmates everyone seems to have a jealous face.

Tap sound can be heard around the hallway because of our shoes. I thought after being able to escape with our classmate, Tala would remove her hand from my arm but she didn’t.

We we’re walking like we are couples. Other sections also started talking.

“So first of all. Why are you here?” I started the conversation.

She took a quick glance at my face and look straight again.

“You won’t tell me about your friend. So I decided to find that person by myself” she explained.

“How did you end up here?”

“Well. I started stalking you when you were sleeping last night and I end up knowing that you’re studying here”

“How can you enter in this school? You have no identity in the first place. Right?”

“Yes. I do have no identity. BUT! I have powers” she whispered the last part then giggle. I have no idea if she’s even telling the truth or not.

“Money? Where did you get all the money to buy those things? Or did you end up using my cr-“

I didn’t finish my statement and started looking at my savings then luckily she didn’t take any of my savings. Not a single coin.

“I didn’t use your money. It seems like you’re the one with trust issue not me”

she pouted.

“Sorry” I apologize.

I look at Tala’s face for a moment. I can see her looking down. Then suddenly her mood changes. There’s again her adorable smile.

“and because of that! You’re going to treat my lunch today!” Tala said with her cute angry face.

As we continue walking, more and more people are talking. Then my whole body suddenly froze.

It’s Catarina Ice looking at us with her friends around. I don’t know but I feel like I wanted to explain.

But. I don’t even belong to her world.

“Something wrong Liam?” Asked Tala.

Catarina and her friends are walking coming to our direction. When I can see her getting closer and closer my mouth automatically spoke.

“It’s not what you think” I whispered.

“Oh! Ah? You don’t need to explain” Catarina answered with a forced smile then started walking again.

I can feel my heart aching. I know we’re not that close so why bother explaining to her? But I feel like that’s the right thing to do.

Sigh.
