Chapter three.
The only feeling that people could easily tell only by looking at Tadashi's face was exhaustion. He had studied for his Electricity & Magnetism test for days, not because he thought the subject itself was tough, but the teacher who applied it. Believing he was prepared for the test, he took one last sip to his black coffee and headed to his classroom.
Tadashi noticed how the room was deadly silent and everyone in the room was stressed, at least he wasn't the only one who felt that way. He took his seat and, as soon as he sat, the teacher arrived with the terrifying tests in hand. The man was known as an expressionless person, but at that moment, he had a disturbing grin on his face, causing his students to pray and a small percentage of people literally cried. The professor handed the tests and the Japanese gulped. He scanned the fearful paper for a moment and then realized that the exam wasn't as difficult as he thought it would be.
Finishing the exam made him feel freedom, even though he still had projects to finish, he could finish them with ease. Tadashi was aware that he would pass the test since he knew all the answers of the test. So, as a reward, he decided to go to the biggest library in San Fransokyo, his favorite place to take a nap.
Meanwhile, Elsa didn't have the adventurous spirit as she thought she would, feeling butterflies on her stomach as she walked between the crowds of people. She had the GPS on her smartphone and started walking in the directions the GPS showed. Her destination: the library. The book from her dreams was the reason for her going outside once again. "Conceal it. Don't feel it. Don't let them know." She recited in her mind. Everything was fine, until a group of girls accidentally bumped into Elsa, causing her to drop her phone. The teenagers noticed their unintentional act, and still didn't apologize. Elsa glowered and bent to retrieve her phone when another hand also reached for it. Their hands brushed just an instant, which made the girl's heart skip a beat. Elsa was stunned; her mind went blank and didn't know how to react, looking always at the dirty ground. The other person took the phone and he lent his other hand to help her stand up. Elsa held his hand and he gripped hers with gentleness. The blonde felt how her face burned, she was too embarrassed to see the person's face, but thought it was rude not to thank him without looking at the person who just helped her. To her surprise, it was the guy she met at the café.
"Are you okay?" He asked, Elsa noticed a slight blush on his cheeks.
"Ah, yes. Thank you so much." She noticed how their hands were still holding and quickly removed her hand from his and took her phone back. He looked at her and smiled. Elsa didn't understand why he smiled at her; she didn't understand why she couldn't stop smiling at him either and why her heart was beating fast. He nodded at her and started walking away, as if he was saying goodbye. She nodded back, looked at her phone and kept walking to the direction the GPS showed. She noticed that she was walking in the same direction as him. Tadashi turned in her direction and asked her:
"Are you lost?"
Elsa, surprised, stuttered "I d-don't know… I don't really know this place. D-do you know where is this San Fransokyo's Library?" Then she showed him a picture with her cellphone.
"The library… I am also going there too! It's near here, I can take you there… if you want, of course" Tadashi scratched the back of his neck. Elsa looked at him and, embarrassed, accepted his offer. "Okay! Follow me."
They started walking side by side in silence. Tadashi couldn't believe what was happening, he was too tired, he didn't even know if he was dreaming or if it was really happening. He pinched his cheeks while looking at her, and wondered what her name was.
"I'm Tadashi, by the way. Tadashi Hamada" He broke the silence.
Elsa looked at him and replied "I'm Elsa, Elsa of Arendelle."
"Elsa… It's a lovely name." He spoke softly.
It took them only a few minutes to arrive to the library; Elsa looked amazed by the library's size that her eyes were wide open; she blinked a few times and then looked at Tadashi. "Thank you so much, Tadashi. I… I don't know how to repay you."
"Repay me? It's fine, don't worry about it!"
"Are you sure? I feel indebted." Elsa bit her lips.
"Ah… really?" he doubted, and the girl only nodded, "Then… your phone number…" Tadashi felt self-conscious as he saw Elsa raise a brow, "Um, if you give me your phone number and I want help from you, I'd call you".
Elsa hesitated at first, but still gave him her number. The young man grinned and thanked her. When they were about to enter the library, they looked at each other's eyes a few seconds in silence, then, Tadashi once again broke the silence, "See you later, Elsa". Elsa smiled at him and entered the library. Tadashi entered after her and went to his 'secret' place. He closed his eyes and slept instantly.
Elsa didn't know where to start. Looking for the book of her dream sounded so silly. Still, she really wanted to believe it existed; she wanted to know the truth of her powers. While searching for the book, made her remember how much fun she had when she was a kid, she didn't even think they were dangerous at all, in fact, she remembered her powers as something beautiful. She had fun playing with her sister Anna. Elsa closed her eyes and shook her head, avoiding the horrible thing she did to Anna, and concentrated on her real goal.
After 3 hours of searching through the books, she looked at her phone and saw that it was 6:40p.m. already. She realized she didn't even search ¼ of the library. In twenty minutes more she needed to go, so she kept looking for the sapphire book. She walked between some bookshelves and suddenly felt a bizarre, cold wind coming from the opposite direction.
Elsa's heart started to beat rapidly and followed the wind, hugging herself tightly. She knew that was a guide for the book, "Why did it happen so suddenly? Why didn't I have that dream earlier? What is going on?" Elsa questioned herself. The library seemed awfully lonely, she felt she was alone in the place, only she and the books. Then, she saw the book. She took it with care, her heart pounding nonstop, when she opened the book, her phone started to vibrate. It was an alarm telling her it was 7:00p.m. Elsa had no choice but go home. At least she knew the book was real.
Elsa arrived home safe and sound. She had dinner and went to her room. She took her mobile and saw she didn't have any message.
"Was telling Anna about him wrong…? Ugh, I shouldn't have mentioned him!" Elsa face-palmed herself, and remembered about what she did today. She remembered Tadashi holding her hand tenderly; her cheeks were flushing by the memory. It had been a long time since she had contact with somebody, let alone a guy. She wondered when he will call her and what he'd want. She inevitably smiled and, somehow, wanted him to call her soon.
As for Tadashi, when he got home, Hiro looked at him with curiosity. "So… how was the test, nerd?"
"Hello, Hiro. It was better than expected, actually. The teacher was really creepy, though. Anyways, I think, no, I know I'll pass"
"I see…" Hiro said as he was making a small silver robot, "I guess those ugly bags under your eyes are worth it?"
Tadashi looked at his brother with confusion, he hadn't seen his face for the past four days and nights he studied, "What are you talking about?"
"Dude, have you seen yourself? You look like a zombie!"
Worried, the older brother went to the bathroom's mirror and saw his face, it was true. He looked kind of like a zombie and then Elsa popped into his mind. Tadashi never thought much about his appearance, but at that moment, he wanted to die; he couldn't believe she saw him like that. He felt so embarrassed with himself that he went to his bed with a gloomy aura. Hiro didn't notice his brother feeling discouraged, instead, he continued with his robot. Tadashi sighed and went to help his Aunt.
It was morning already and Elsa woke up earlier; she wanted to know the truth that lies within the old book. She prepared herself, made her usual low bun and wore her favorite gloves. Gerda noticed how Elsa left the house often, she didn't know how to feel and react about the sudden change in her; she couldn't help but ask Elsa, "Miss Elsa, may I ask you something?"
"Of course. What is it?" Elsa kindly replied.
"Did you, by any chance, meet someone?"
Elsa, surprised by the question, looked at Gerda. Yes, she met someone, but it wasn't like Gerda was thinking. She didn't want to tell her that the real reason to leave the house was to look for a magic book from her dream which is, maybe, the key to dominate her powers. Elsa nervously answered, "Ah, yes. I met someone…"
"I see. Please be careful, miss." Gerda was worried about Elsa, but she didn't know what to do, and Elsa noticed it.
"Don't worry, Gerda. I'll be fine." Elsa stated, and left.
Elsa checked her phone before entering the library and noticed there were no messages. She worried about her sister, Anna wasn't like that. The blonde just silenced her phone and entered the library. She went straight to the place where the book was and grabbed it. The book didn't seem to have a title; she opened the book on the first page and saw some doodles of snowflakes. She flipped through the book and saw that the book was in an unknown language. She felt disappointed, but she knew that in that book, there was the answer of her ice magic. She still looked for something in it; she was so concentrated that she didn't know somebody was calling her, the person tapped on her shoulder and she jumped scared. She looked at the person; he was short, old and chubby. She blinked at him and whispered, "Yes?"
"I can help you." He whispered back.
Elsa was scared by the man; she gulped and said softly "Help me with what?"
"I can sense your magic, it's very powerful. I have been waiting for you, Snow Queen"
