Chapter 2
-Normal POV-
The long drive had left Naru plenty of time for pondering after the initial anger had subsided.
-Naru POV-
The atrocity of it all. A grown man being sent away for the summer. To the child of his parents friend no less. Could they insult him anymore? Of course they could, all it would take was Lin telling Mai what was actually going on.
The official story was that he was going to a conference on paranormal research. OF course it was a boldfaced lie, not that she would know the difference. She never could seem to realize how often he lied to her. Who seriously believed that so many people found him a narcissist that Naru had become his nickname?
-Normal POV-
As the sun finally reached the edge of the water, where Naru would be staying came into view. To call it a house would be an understatement, to call it a mansion was to disregard the subtle elegance in which it became like unto it's surroundings. It was a traditional Japanese structure that was built to both blend in and stand out.
Lin drove the car as far as it was permitted, as there was a sign stating that vehicles were not allowed beyond twenty feet of the front gate. Then in silence took Naru's things from the car and placed them on the trail besides him and drove away.
As Naru made his way up to the house, his mind started to wander. Just who was Professor Tsukino?
