JaN : Phew! It took me the whole night to finish chapter 5-7! yawns...but the hard work paid off though...keke...Anyway, here's the next chapter...
Chapter 8 : Disappearance
It seems that the trip to the park at night was a really good one. The three couples were getting along well and things were all wonderful for them.
After a while...
At that night, Evan was quiet. By the dining table, everyone was talking happily away while he's the quiet one.
"Evan...Are you alright?" Rhine asked.
Evan seemed to be dreaming and she woke him up. He shook his head telling that he's alright.
That night, the three couples were in different places. Xan and Selena were in the park while El and Kazu were by the balcony chatting. While on the rooftop, it was Evan and Rhine.
Evan was particularly quiet that night, and Rhine was getting worried.
"Evan, is there something that I should know?"
Evan looked at her. "No, nothing that you should get worried of.."
Rhine was staring at Evan. She still couldn't forget her first kiss with him, and she blushed every time she thought about it. After a while, it was time to sleep.
For Evan, it wasn't sleep time. Instead, he packed his stuff quietly in the room he shared with El, and El was already sleeping. He opened the door quietly, but it could be heard by Xan's sharp hearing. Xan got up from his bed, and looked out from the door. Evan went in to Rhine and Kazu's room.
As Evan entered the room, he noticed that Rhine was sound asleep. The windows were open, and in fact, it was a windy night. The moon shone brightly, to lit the night sky. He looked at Rhine and he thought...
I didn't wish to leave you...but this is fate...
Evan touched Rhine's hair and looked at her face.
She...looks...so....innocent...
He put a letter on a table next to the bed. As he put it on the table, he looked at Rhine again. Innocent she looked, and he walked to her. He put his head in front of her face, and he kissed her...for the last time.
He soon left the room. As the doorknob turned, Rhine changed her sleeping direction. Evan was startled at first, but he gave a sigh of relief. He quickly left the room. Evan walked down the stairs quietly, and as he was about to open the main door...
"Going away huh?"
Evan jolted. He realized that the voice was rather familiar, and he looked behind. It was Xan.
"I understand. I realized that you have been daydreaming a lot lately.. It's fine with me if you want to leave.. But for Rhine...."
Evan gave a sigh. He never wanted to leave her, but he was left with no choice.
"You can go now. I know your new guild master must be waiting."
Evan was surprised. How did Xan know that he was offered into a guild? He never told anyone..
"I know you're surprised on how I know about this, but I know you met someone.. It's better to go now. We don't want him to wait for a very long time, right?"
Evan opened the main door and stepped outside. Xan was still behind him, watching him leave.
The next day....
"Xan!! Where's Evan?!" El exclaimed as he ran down the stairs in his pyjamas. His voice was so loud that everyone in the house awoke.
"What? Evan's not in the house? Where could he have gone to?" asked Selena, worriedly.
"Don't worry. He's fine." Xan said.
Selena and El looked and Xan, rather surprised. It sounded as if Xan knew whatever that had happened. Kazu and Rhine woke up hearing El's shouting and quickly ran downstairs. El told them what had happened, and Rhine was shocked. She quickly ran to El and Evan's room and realized that all of his stuff was gone. Usually Evan will be the one that wakes up the earliest and sweeps leaves in the garden, and now, the leaves are scattered on the grass.
"Rhine......." Kazu tried to comfort Rhine.
Rhine was quite sad, and she locked herself in her room. Kazu tried to enter, but the door was locked.
"Well...looks like we have to let her be alone for a while..."
While Xan was preparing breakfast, Kazu and El had been asking Rhine to come out from her room to at least have something to eat. All Rhine could say was "Leave me alone guys...." The both of them gave up trying, and went back downstairs.
In the room, Rhine had tears running down her cheeks.
"Why ?! Why ?!" she shouted.
She dropped herself to her cozy bed and continued crying. As she tossed to her right side, she noticed that there was something on her table. She got up, and wiped her tears off. She picked up the envelope and read...
Dear Rhine,
I know this might be hard on you, but I have no other choice. By the time you read this, I'll be somewhere..somewhere far....Take care of the rest and I'll always be with you.
Evan
After reading the letter, she put it under her pillow. She was still sad, but managed to herself from crying.
