Chapter 2:
M
The next night, I snuck out again. This time, I didn't wander around. I went straight to the place where I last saw the girl.
And there she was. She was lying on the road. She was staring vacantly at the sky.
I walked over to her.
"Hey," I said, raising a hand, but she did not take her eyes off the sky. She didn't even seem to acknowledge my presence.
I waited for her to answer, but then I figured out that she wouldn't.
I walked over to her. I stared at her for awhile: she was wearing the same clothes, and she was bare feet.
Then, with a sigh, I lay down next to her.
She finally noticed my presence. She sat straight up.
"What are you doing?"
Her voice was cold.
"Exactly what you were doing," I replied.
"And what was I doing?"
"Thinking," I said, now looking at her.
Her skin was pale, and she seemed tired, but not sleepy.
She was quiet for a while, and then she lay down beside me again.
I figured that she chose to ignore my presence once again.
She lay there, not moving, and staring up at the sky.
"What's your name?" I asked after some time.
She frowned.
"You're an idiot."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Well, with the mass Kira murders happening, you expect me to just tell you, a stranger, my name?"
I smirked.
"I guess not."
We both continued to look at the sky.
She sighed, and suddenly sat up. She took out a phone from her pocket and called someone.
"A? I need to go check something. Could you take my post?"
I heard someone with a really high and perky voice reply, "Sure thing, M! I'll be right there."
She muttered a 'thanks' and stood up.
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"None of your business, kid. Shouldn't you be at home, sleeping at this moment?" She asked.
"Shouldn't you?"
She smiled.
"No. I should not be."
She started walking, but suddenly stopped and looked at me.
"You can call me M."
"Okay. And I'm… Ryuzaki," I replied hesitantly.
She smirked.
"Right…"
She then broke into a run, leaving me lying on the road, alone.
I got up as well, and brushed myself off.
"Who was she?" I thought, "And what was she up to?"
My watch started beeping again, so I ran back to my hotel, and got into bed, my mind buzzing with questions.
