Part 9: Witch Eyes
"Thanks for walking me home," Aya said to Mitsui.
"No problem. Akagi would kill me otherwise," Mitsui joked. At least, he think he did. He wouldn't want to know what Akagi would do to him if he didn't.
"Uh huh." She stood at the doorway. "Yea well...goodnight, Mitsui."
"Sleep well, Aya."
"You too."
She took a shower and ate a quick dinner. Takenori stayed at the campus, so she had no company.
Wait, if Brother stays at the campus, doesn't Mitsui?
And the college is very far. Closer to Ryonan than to Shohoku, and even after that you still had to walk quite a bit.
Then why the hell did Mitsui walk her home?
Forget it. All guys are weird. She has evidence of that.
"Haruko?" She opened the door a tiny crack.
"Hai? Come in Aya," Haruko said, covering the speaker of the phone.
"Yea?"
"Ano, do you mind if my friends stay over tomorrow night? We have to do a project and we thought it would be easier if we stayed at someone's house," she said anxiously. "Okaa-san agreed to it, and they both have to attend a conference at Kyoto, so they're staying there for awhile."
Aya sighed mentally. She should have known. A lousy ending for a lousy day. Well, lousy enough day, she corrected, thinking of basketball practice. It took only a second for these thoughts to pass through her mind.
"Sure. Why not?"
"I hate Fridays. Especially today. Did I tell you today's Friday the thirteenth?" Aya groaned. Sendoh was surprised.
"I didn't know you were superstitious."
"I'm not. Today just feel like a day I won't like."
"Ahh."
"Oh look." Aya pointed. "A black cat. Perfect."
Sendoh glanced at the direction and saw a black tail disappearing into the bushes. "It'll be alright. Why? Anything the matter?"
"Yea. My sister's friends are staying over today."
"Oh. Sad."
She muttered something belligerently and checked her watch.
"AAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
Sendoh parted through the crowd, trying to follow Aya.
"I already said I'm sorry!"
"I don't care! You made me late for my SECOND DAY in school! **Fourth I don't mind, but SECOND!!!"
"Mah, mah. I'll make it up to you, alright?"
It calmed her down a little. "Fine. Are you going to eat?"
He nodded and pointed to his locker. It was strewn with lunchboxes on the top of it with his name written on them. Aya sweatdropped.
Both of them sat on the top of the roof, which seems to become Aya's favourite haunt. Aya had to help with Sendoh putting all the lunchboxes into his locker and she was unusually quiet about it.
"Hey, are you alright?" he asked.
She seemed depressed. "No...I've still got to put up with tonight." She sighed.
Sendoh glanced at her. Her mouth was curved downwards slightly and her eyes were frowning. A stray lock of hair fell into her eyes but she did not notice.
He brushed it away for her. "Can I ask a question?"
Aya nodded noncommittally, staring into space. "Shoot."
"Why don't you like people looking at your eyes? They're beautiful."
She stiffened visibly. Beautiful was not the word they used before. They were more on the lines of 'witch eyes' and 'able to make you do dangerous things'.
Once, when she had a friend, that friend described her eyes as "a silvery and bright green, and the outside of each iris, as well as in the middle, were darker rings." Her...ex-boyfriend...had said they were marked by the fairies to show the world how special she is.
God, she missed both of them so much.
"Aya? Did I upset you?" Sendoh asked anxiously.
She said harshly, "My eyes are a curse. That's why I don't like people looking at them." Aya softened her tone, "that's why I don't like people staring at me. That's why I don't like gatherings with friends or my privacy being intruded upon. That's how Dawn...died."
Sendoh dropped his chopsticks and choked on his food. She continued like as if she didn't hear him. "It was all my fault. Jonathan stared too long. He went insane. Took out his gun and screamed, saying I was casting a spell on him. Dawn tried to stop him. He shot her instead. I nearly killed him..." she trailed off and closed her eyes, tears running down her cheeks.
"I didn't mean to," she whispered. "I truly didn't. Forgive me, God."
Do me a favor.....press that button, yes, the one at the bottom. Select submit review and write something. Thanks! ^^;;
**My sister has so *wonderfully* pointed out something. Here I meant 'fourth day I don't mind, but not second day'.
