Author's Note
As promise, here is chapter 10.
Thank you so much for being patient with me while I took care of personal affairs. For those of you who are wondering what happened to my precious dog, it turns out that she has a stone in her stomach. She can't eat anything and she can barely walk. The doctors are still trying to figure out why she has a stone and how to save her life.
My family had convienced me that I need to go back here (where I live) for I have people to tutor in the summer. So I am back. Again. THANK YOU!!

Chapter 10: Talk To Me
"Jenny!!" Karin yelled as she ran to hug her former best friend with Sarah right behind her. Jenny returned her hugged. Sarah and Karin started to take turns hugging their friends. The bell rang and they all went to their homeroom. Fortunately, they all had the same classes together.
Karin's P.O.V
OH MY GOSH! What am I gonna do!? If Troy and Kazune meet each other, all hell would break lose! I CANNOT let them meet each other. Sigh. What about the others? I… I can't let them. I have to stop them. But…how? Tremble
End of P.O.V
Karin and Sarah took their seats. While Troy, Nathan, Jenny, and Hazel stood infront of class, talking to Mrs. Smith. The students started to pile in. Girls were swooning at the boys and boys were swooning at the girls. Karin doesn't know why but when the girls were swooning over Troy, she felt jealous and angry. When Kazune was going to his sit, he looked at Karin. He noticed that Karin had this look, like she was mad. But he shrugged it off.
"Class. We have, yet again, another transfer students! Isn't that fabulous!?" Mrs. Smith said as she clapped her hands together. She was grinning from ear to ear. Both Karin and Sarah rolled their eyes.
"Please introduce yourselves."Mrs. Smith addressing them. They nodded.
"Hello, my name is Jennifer." When Jenny had smiled, the boys were drooling (with the exception of Kazune and Yuuki).
"Hi, my name is Hazel."
"I'm Nathaniel, but you can call me Nate." Nate smiled. The girls started to drool.
"And last but not least, there's me. My name is Troy. It's a pleasure meeting all of you." He smiled his most charming smile and the girls had fallen head over heels over him.
Mrs. Smith told them to sit down. Jenny sat neared the first door. The boys stared at her while she moved to her new sit. Hazel sat next to Miyon on the fifth row. While Nate sat in the fourth row and Troy sat in the same row but two sits away from him.
Karin thought that she would die when Troy walked up to her on the way to his seat and smiled his most charming yet seductive smile of his. Kazune saw this little display and clenched his fist so tight that the place were his nails dug his skin, was very very red.
The minutes went by really really really slow for Karin. But for the guys and girls who were drooling over the new students, went by really really fast. Finally the bell rang. Karin dashed out of the room as fast as she can avoiding her old friends and her new friends.
After School. Kuyjou Mansion.
Karin was exhausted. No scratch that, she was beyond exhausted. She raced up to her bedroom, shut the door, and flomp down in her bed. She was finally at peace. She closed her eyes and rehashed the day.
Twenty Minutes Later.
Karin opened her eyes. Just as she opened them, the phone rang. She didn't bother answering it because she knew that Q-chan would answer it. So she closed her eyes again but there was knock on her door.
She is really getting frustrated. Whenever she finds peace someone would always ruin it. But nonetheless, she answered the door.
"What is it Q-chan?" she asked. Sleepily may I add.
"A phone call for you, Karin-sama. It is Sarah-sama." (I have no idea how Q-chan talks so forgive me).
"Thank you." Karin took the phone and closed the door. She could hear the distant fooftsteps of Q-chan has he descends back down to the stairs. She took a deep breathe and…
…"Hello?Sarah?"
"Oh my gosh, Karin!!" She yelled loudly. Karin winced at the loudness.
"Don't scream, you're making my head hurt." She rubbed her temples and went back to bed. She was looking at the ceiling when Sarah said…
… "Oh, I'm sorry! You must have had a rough day today."
"Yes, I did. But it's alright. I have to get used to it anyway,"she sighed.
"So, tell me. Where were you at nutrition and lunch time? We were looking for you everywhere."
"Oh, I'm sorry. I was at the rooftop. I knew they would want to sit next to me but I wanted to sit next to Kazune and the others. I was…" she never got to finish saying what she wanted to say because Sarah interrupted her.
"Say no more. I understand. Completely." Karin blinked then closed her eyes.
"Thanks."
"No problem. So, you where eating by yourself? That's awful. If you'd have told me then I would have gladly come with you, you know."
Karin smiled into the phone. "I know, but if both of us disappeared then they would search for us non-stop."
"Hm… I guess you are right. But still. Oh well. Anyway, if you don't mind me asking how are you going to deal with this little…problem?"
Karin though for a moment before saying, "I…really don't know. I guess I will have to do my best for them to not see each other."
Sarah pondered this idea for a moment then said, "That I guess wouldn't be a bad idea but they including us have all our classes together with them. Hm?"
Karin groan. "OMG! What am I going to do now?"
"You know what I don't get is why you don't want to see Troy and the others. Or why you don't want to let Kazune and Troy meet. Care to elaborate this to me??"
Karin was silent. She didn't know what to say.
"Karinnn!! EARTH TO EMMA!!" Sarah screamed so loud that that got Karin to snap out of her trance.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I was just thinking."
"Well, just explain it to me. Because honestly, even I don't know what you are thinking."
Karin sighed. She took a deep, very deep breathe and said, "Okay. Fine. Just promise me that you won't tell anybody." She waited for Sarah's reply.
"Fine. I won't tell a soul."
"Okay. It's just that nobody knows that I was this 'Emma' person. My friends, meaning Kazune and the others know that I was always 'Karin'. And Troy and the others always have known that I was 'Emma'. You get?"
"Um… I think so. Your new friends doesn't know that you had another life meaning you had a different name and such. While your old friends doesn't know that you are not 'Emma' anymore but actually 'Karin'. Right?"
"Correct."
"Okay. But what I don't get is why you won't just tell them, so you don't have to be worried all the time about them finding out."
"Sarah, I only told you the basic of that. But it's actually more complicated than that. Even if I did tell you, you either wouldn't understand or you wouldn't believe me."
"Well, why don't you just try then??"
"I… can't. Besides, its hard to explain. Listen, can we talk tomorrow? I'm really tired." Karin yawned.
Sarah's voice softened, "Of course. I just really want to know what you are thinking nowadays.Bye."
"Thanks. Bye" They both hang up.
Karin stared at her ceiling. Thinking how she was going to explain this to Sarah without making her head explode. But in truth, even this whole mess is making her confuse and light-head. Karin closed her eyes and thought about the people that are after her. She shook her head.
'No! I can't think about that right now. I have to focus on how I'm going to explain this to Sarah and make sure that Troy and Kazune are not to talk to each other.'
Karin opened her eyes. Just then, she heard the pitter patter of a small feet coming up the stairs. There was a knock on her door. She got up and opened the door. She finds herself staring at a pair of emerald eyes just like hers.
"Mama!!"
Alright!
Now, I'm pretty sure that you can guess who that is…ne??
xD LOL
I know I said in the beginning that to not be too critique. I take that back. I want flames. Even if I have spelling or grammar wrong, tell me. Just be honest and don't worry about being rude and stuff. I don't want you guys saying that my story is good when you guys don't feel like it is. Don't worry about my feelings getting hurt, because to be honest, I'm pretty sure that I will be thanking you.
