"Well..."
"Well?"
"What are you going to do actually?" Sync asked with a rather annoyed tone as he sat on the infirmary chair of the school. In front of him was Arietta, ready with her gloves and a scissors on her hand and sat down on the chair in front of him while pulled the hood down from the green-haired boy's head .
"I just want to cut your bangs a little bit. I heard you got scolded by the teacher because of it, didn't you?" She asked. Though without waiting for his permission, she already took his bangs and begun cut it. Seems like in this past several months she seems to grow closer to him [and vice-versa no matter how Sync deny it] to the point where she could do something without his agreement first unlike before. And Sync him self, despite of his growl of annoyance, doesn't do anything like scolded her or push her away.
A soft hum come out from her lip as she cut his bangs but, unknown to her, Sync s emerald eyes was staring at her. He noticed the smile that formed on her lip and also her flushed face, as if she enjoyed this time very much. Still fresh on his mind the event from several weeks before, and that scene keep repeated on his mind no matter how much time he tried to get rid of it.
"You are really weird.." He said in a low tone but, loud enough to be heard by Arietta.
"What do you mean?"
"Usually, people would go after heard about the curse but you..." He trailed, doesn't know how to continued the words.
"Well, " She began as she took her hand and put it on her lap. "I don t know why people would do that," She said with a soft smile. "Indeed, at first I feel shocked when I know it. But, when I re-think about it.."
"You feel sorry for me and pity me.." He finished her sentences with a disappointment on his tone.
"No, instead.. It make me feel want to be with you. I want to know about you more." She said, looking down. "I know maybe you will said I m weird and I don t care. I just.. Wanna do what I want to do..."
Heard the unexpected answer, Sync s eyes grew wide in a confused and shocked, never thought that someone would say something like that to him. Noticed the tears drips on her pale cheek, he brought his hand to her face and wiped it with his finger as he moved his face closer to her. He don t know why, he just got this sudden urge to kiss her and she seems to be shut her eyes, as if she s ready for anything.
But no, he couldn't let his lust conquer him. He quickly grabbed her shoulders and pulled away just when the bell's rang, snapped Arietta out from the trance also as her eyes quickly opened.
"A-ah.. I haven t finished to cut your bang.. Here.. ," She took off her her hairpin and placed it on his hair instead, prevent some bangs to covered his eyes. "I will.. finishes it later. Just keep it like that for now, okay?" And with that, she quickly runs out fro the infirmary with a flushed face.
He looked at her running figure before he put his hand over his face and chuckled madly. "Stupid.. If you kiss her, she would forget about you, remember..?" he muttered to him self as a single tear drop on his cheek. "Stupid.."
