Chapter 2 - JP is missing!
"Class is quiet of course! No JP!" Kazuha said, laughing.
"He didn't even come back to class!" Kira said.
"You notice it too? Kiyo asked.
"Yeah, so did I," Miya answered.
"Wonder where he had gone to," Kiyo continued.
"Did you do anything to him, Zoe?" Kazuha asked.
"Well..." Zoe was about to answer when Kira interrupted, "You hit him on the head right?"
"Emm... yeah..." Zoe replied.
"I think you are too hard on him... If anything happened to him, you have to bear the consequences!" Kazuha said strictly.
Zoe bit her lips, looking worried. Kouichi put a hand on her shoulder and said, "Don't worry... JP will be fine."
"Come on, he haven't given up on Zoe yet, so he won't die so soon," Takuya said, "Unless. For some exceptions," Takuya grinned at Zoe.
All the girls started laughing.
Zoe smiled, she just love her two guy-friends, Kouichi and Takuya. They are handsome, funny, caring and... cute, a total opposite of Kouji Minamoto.
'Kouji...' She thought.
She walked back home but suddenly stopped, 'May be I should go to JP's house and take a look.'
When she was about to turned back, she saw Tommy, one of her schoolmate who was always amused by JP's magic tricks.
"Hi Tommy," Zoe greeted him.
"Hi, have you seen JP? I went to his house but he's not home. I tried calling his handphone but it was off." Tommy asked.
"I didn't see him..." Zoe answered.
"Never mind, I'll look for him," Tommy smiled.
"Call me if you found him," Zoe said.
Tommy nodded and walked away.
'Where are you JP?' She thought.
While walking, she bumped into Takuya.
"Hey, are you still looking for JP?" Takuya said with a grin.
"Take that grin off your face, Kanbara. Have you seen JP?" Zoe asked.
"No... He might be still in the rubbish dump, for all you know," Takuya answered with a grin.
"Impossible," Kouichi said from behind, "I saw them emptying the bin just now."
"Then he must be in the garbage truck!" Takuya said with a snort, "He might be in the incinerator or he might already been burnt into ashes!"
"It's not funny," Zoe said, "I'll gonna look for him, you people coming?" Kouichi and Takuya followed her while Takuya was still guessing where JP was.
***1 hour had past but they still couldn't find JP.***
Zoe was getting worried and did not notice that she bumped into someone. She was about to fall when Kouichi caught her.
Zoe apologized and found that she was facing Kouji Minamoto.
She managed to get into a standing position and apologized again. She started walking towards the opposite direction when someone said from behind, "If you are looking for him, why don't you try looking around your neighbourhood?"
Zoe turned around but Kouji was already out of sight.
"My house?" Zoe said in confusion.
"He must be saying that JP might be waiting for you to come home, Zoe," Kouichi said.
"He got a point there," Takuya said as they started running towards Zoe's house, "The garbage man must have found him in their truck and dumped him in the garbage bin in front of Zoe's house." Takuya whispered so that only Kouichi could hear him.
"JP!!!!" Zoe shouted as soon as they reached their destination.
"1. 2. 3." Takuya counted with his fingers, grinning.
"What are you doing?" Kouichi asked.
"5!" Takuya shouted.
JP head suddenly popped out from the rubbish bin, he was covered in food scraps.
"Zoe!" JP squealed and started running towards Zoe but she slapped him, "You idiot! Where did you. YOU STINKS!" Zoe took a step back, covering her nose.
"I don't know, I don't know how I got here," JP said, looking around, "I was unconscious, until I heard your voice, my dear."
JP took a step forward and almost hugged Zoe when she took out her mallet and started hitting him, "Are you going home now?"
"Okay..." JP said, crestfallen, "I'll see you in school tomorrow then! Don't start missing me, Zoe dear."
Zoe looked at JP's running figure in disgust and shouted, "You better scrub your body clean before going to school tomorrow!" She watched till JP was out of sight before mumbling "Baka."
Zoe turned to Takuya and Kouichi, "Thank guys, I could not have found him without you."
"Come on, you should thank Kouji instead," Kouichi said.
"Yeah, I'll do that tomorrow," Zoe said and ran into her house, "Bye!"
"And you scrub your hand clean too, Zoe!" Takuya smirked and received a glare from Zoe.
"JP always showed up within 5 seconds when he heard Zoe's voice calling him," Takuya grinned at Kouichi.
"How do you know?" Kouichi asked.
"I counted. I am not like you who always not paying attention," Takuya nudged him.
"I thought you were the one who never pay attention in class," Kouichi smirked and Takuya replied, "You are no fun."
***
Later that night in Zoe's bed (Editor: Thoughts away, perverts), she could not sleep easily. The image of Kouji kept popping up at her head.
"Where have I seen you before?" She murmured, staring up at the ceiling.
"This is so confusing," she said, closing her eyes, "maybe tomorrow I will remember, best if I catch some sleep now."
But it was worse. She could practically see Kouji's face right in front of her, every line and every curve so clearly shown.
"How's that possible, I only knew him for a day. Yeah, he sits next to me, but it is only 1 day." she gave a little yawn, as tiredness started to consume her.
"Whatever, I suppose I could think about that the next time," the question in her mind started to fade, the past memory flashed through her dream occasionally, but it was gone before she could catch it.
