TELE-what? Now, that's new!
DISCLAIMER: THIS FIC IS NOT INLINED WITH THE PLOT. I USED THE CHARACTER/S ONLY. AND THE CHARACTER/S THAT I USED IS, OBVIOUSLY, NOT MINE, SO DON'T SUE ME.
A/N: Thanks for your continuing support for my second fic! It took me a while to imagine what will happen next with Megan and Akira. And this chapter is not that long. Thank you for the reviews again. I would really like it when you give me one because it made me write more. Give suggestions and opinions too. I'll appreciate it! Thank you very much! Have fun!
Chapter 3
FLASHBACK:
Then I heard him think:
Wow, she's cute.
I like her eyes. Ocean eyes.
I don't know but I blushed. I blushed in front of him. When he saw that a red color was slowly creeping into my face, he just laughed it off.
It looks like she knew what I thought a while ago!
Good guess, big guy.
After the recess bell rang, I got up and arranged my things. As I told you before, I have no friends to hang around with so I usually go to the cafeteria by myself to eat by myself. But when I looked outside the window, it was an unusually bright morning so I felt it will be much better to eat under the shade of the big tree outside. And hey, I got a chicken sandwich. And an apple. Hmm, my favorites. Sniff.
I didn't notice where Sendoh went but I heard his voice again.
Where did Megan go? I don't know a lot in this place and she's the only one I talked to for a couple of minutes. God. What should I do?
The desperation in Sendoh's voice made me stop from walking and made me looked around the room. I was planning to tell him, "I see you don't know a lot in this place and I'm the only one you talked to for a couple of minutes so you might be wondering what you should do. Want to join me?" Nah. It would look like I could read his mind. Like I couldn't. What a big joke. As I continued to scan the huge room, I realized it was too late to approach him. He is in the company of Mia and her two unofficial boyfriends (Maybe they are her bodyguards. Hmm…,) and it looks like Sendoh will have a great time with them than me. What a big joke.
Mia is beautiful but completely overdone. Too thick eyelashes, too dark eyeliner, too pink cheeks, too red lips. You name it, she goes over the top with it. She was wearing a revealing halter top and an ultra-miniskirt and it looks like Sendoh was feeling very uncomfortable with Mia's big boobs bouncing up and down in front of his face. That is so funny.
My God. What is this girl doing! It's scaring me.
I laughed at Sendoh's thought. Seeing that he would have fun, I got out of the room and went to the big tree. I sat down and got the notebook I was writing on an hour ago from my bag and continued writing while eating my sandwich.
Do you know what I think about when it's summer?
I think soon it will be autumn,
And all the brightest, prettiest summer birds will fly away,
Leaving the darkest and drabbest ones to stay.
Winter nights for me are too long.
Giving time for too many dreams to be born.
I try and hold back sleep until just before dawn.
Sometimes I succeed.
If I don't, I grow so restless
I have to get up and dress.
Then I walk outside
And let the fresh cold air make my dreary thoughts go to rest.
Time slips by so quickly.
I'm always surprised at how the minutes race by,
How soon the day is over.
I used to feel that all my expectations for happiness ahead
Were drowned before they ever had a chance to bloom
Because there are problems I have to face.
It's very difficult to feel stepped on time after time,
Until finally you have to accept
What can't be changed.
In this moment of tranquility, I saw Sendoh walking towards the cafeteria with Mia and her boyfriends-slash-bodyguards. He saw me sitting under the tree and I heard him think:
There she is! But why is she alone? Does she have any friends? I would really like to pry these manicured claws off my arm and hang out with her. Megan seems so sweet. But why is she alone?
Good question, Sendoh. Why am I alone? I watched him go into the cafeteria with his new friends. I wanted to tell him that he might as well ignore me, like the others do.
But I realized something.
When I hear what people think of me, I want to run far away from them. If I could, I will whack my head on the wall just to get rid of this psychic weirdness. I want to close my ears. I want to push any pointed thing that my elementary Science teacher forbids me and my classmates inside these creepy instruments of listening. I want to know the answer to the question that's been bugging me from the day I knew there was nothing that can change it, "Why me?"
But when I hear Sendoh's thoughts, why oh why do I want to be close to him?
To be continued…!
