Chapter 5:
"I know, I wouldn't cry for someone who doesn't care about me now, Kai. Don't worry about me, I'm fine perfectly." Hiromi snapped.
"Hmm."
"Okay, okay, now you two both calm down." Tyson sweatdropped.
"Alright, spin it again then." Max smiled.
"Yeah." Ray spun this time, he bit his lip in curiosity.
Hilary and others gasped after they glanced at the bottle while Tyson smirked.
"Okay Ray, choose bud, Truth or dare?" the dragoon wielder gave a goofy smile.
"Uhmn, definitely not dare this time."
"Okay. So tell me-"
"Tyson don't ask something too personal, alright?" Ray intervened.
"So shall I ask you something simple like what is your age or name?"
"I mean-"
"Yeah, you don't mean that right, so let me ask you what I wanted." Tyson continued.
"Uh-"
"Tell us, are you really a calm person when someone speaks like so unexpected and be a pervert or you manage to conceal your anger?"
"This isn't tough though but I need to think."
"Hmm, sure."
".."
"C'mon, tell us quick."
"Okay, it depends alright." Ray answered.
"Bu-"
"Shut up Tyson, that was the most stupid question you had to ask him." Hilary snapped.
"Uhmn, but Hil-"
"Come on, it's enough, spin again!" Kai said suddenly.
"Why do you shock us and make yourself a highlight all the times Kai?" Hilary said frowning at him
Tyson blurted out laughing while Ray and Max chuckled.
"Muhahhahahhahhahahha"
"Hey, listen. I'm not a highlight here, you got that, snotty girl!"
"WHAT! How dare you Mr. Sourpuss!"
"Hah, I dare to do anything, you got it?" he smirked.
She was annoyed almost reaching for his shoulder to grab while he simply folded his hands and closed his eyes in content.
"ENOUGH OF YOU, ALL!"
SOME ONE SCREAMED, REALLY BADLY LOOKING AT THE TEENS WITH ANGRY EYES.
They turned their faces to look at a lady with brown hair and ruby eyes.
"Mom?" the girl panicked.
"Hilary, what are you doing here? I said you to study and not waste your time here in some silly game."
"Yeah, Hilary, go and study. See I told that you already, didn't I?" Captain blader mocked her again.
"Wh-" she gasped with lines on her forehead.
"Hilary! Come right now!"
"Okay, okay, I'm coming! Please don't shout." she requested being embarrassed.
She gave an angry glare to Kai and strode off that day while her mother nudged her uncomfortably.
Till a few weeks she didn't show up. Of course they met at school, but she tried her best to ignore them and not even say 'Morning' if they happen to see. She felt bad about that day, so she had decided that she won't show up there; never.
She preferred to study peacefully in her home and concentrate on her academics. Later when she was free, she spend time in writing her entries, preparing dinners, learning to cook new things, visiting her cousins and if she really got bored, she thought of visiting them but she just violently shrugged off the idea and turned her attention to something better.
One night, around nine, it so happened that after showering, she was drying her hair with a hair dryer humming some song, while her large window was open. After she was done, she peeped out to get some fresh air when she heard some incoherent murmuring of someone, and she could like make out abruptly that it was about her. She glanced deeper bending more until she could listen better. She saw a dual haired blader right down with that characteristic scarf. She thought of retreating back and closing her window.
"Hmm, I'm not going down even if mom lets him inside."
She waited in anticipation for some time till the murmuring curtailed and at one point, it was just all gone. She gulped before she slowly checked out through the curtains of the window and he couldn't be seen at all. Now this scared her, and she walked down slowly downstairs checking if her mother had done the most foolish thing. But to her surprise there was no one and she suddenly remembered that her mother wasn't at home. She had left an hour ago. She walked down with careful paces and checked the door. It was locked. She sighed in relief. She headed back to her room.
She sat on her bed in relief and stared at the clean tiles of the floor. Suddenly she could feel goosebumps on her body as she heard a voice, no, it was some violin played.
It was played so melodiously under the summer night of the fluttering winds out of her house. She stood up abruptly and looked out with eyes wide. She could clearly see him standing holding a chocolate colored violin amazingly and playing its strings with his cold fingers.
She could hear him sing a song.
"Ice cold, I freeze up when I see ya
Left you just to find out that I need ya
So far, I wanna pull you closer
I wish we could start the whole thing over"
She gasped looking at him as he was singing so openly. First thing was, he was singing a female cover in his voice- that was hilarious. She wondered how the singer of the song would react if they saw him this way. The second thing was, the lyrics hardly matched to their situation and the final thing was he was singing a verse from the middle of the song rather from the start.
She was so thankful that no one was around to watch a lover boy singing so openly.
She chuckled seeing him, yet she adored his way of singing it so passionately though it appeared very typical.
He continued singing the same verse over and over and that made his singing more hilarious.
"Excuse me," someone interrupted. He looked at a boy with silver grey hair passing by, wearing a cap.
"Wh-" Kai gasped as he disturbed. Hilary was watching the scene.
"I have been listening your song since a minute. Why do you keep on singing the same lyric over and over?" he asked innocently.
Hilary blurted out laughing as she wanted to say the same thing while the prideful blader gave him a glare that he returned with frightful face. He walked away quickly.
"Nice one Kai!" she said chirpily.
"Hmm." he smiled back.
"You really made me laugh." her anger had completely disappeared, and she was enjoying his company right now.
"Was I that bad?" he raised an eyebrow.
"Never mind."
"You know what, I think I really like you." he didn't hesitated to say that very clearly, though till this time, a very big crowd of people stood in front of her house.
She wondered what was she supposed to do.
