+ Chapter 03 +
+ The New Classmate +
After break time, they went back to their respective rooms and the classes start again for the half of the day.
Their next teacher is Mr. Leorio, for Mathematics. Before he starts his class, he has something to announce.
"Listen class. I want to tell all of you that you have a new classmate," he announced.
Small murmurings occurred in the air.
As if on cue, somebody entered the room. A very handsome guy, around 20 year old, with pale skin, long, shiny, raven hair, and has a pair of soulless ebony eyes.
Mitara shivered inwardly. She felt something inside her flickered. Dammit!
"He's Mr. Illumi. He just transferred here today, that's why he wasn't able to attend your morning class," Mr. Leorio uttered. "Illumi, this is your new classmates. Please introduce yourself to them."
"Hello, minna-san, I'm Illumi. I'm your new classmate. Hope to be friends with all of you."
"Hello, Illumi," the class uttered in chorus.
"You may take your seat now, Illumi. You may seat in that vacant seat at the back." Mr. Leorio pointed the vacant seat beside Mitara.
Illumi nodded and went towards his assigned seat.
Mitara just glanced at her new seatmate.
Illumi gave a small smile, while staring at her eyes.
Mitara shivered once again. However, she tried hard to focus at the white board in the front. Dammit! What the hell is with that new guy? Why is that I'm feeling like this? She cursed herself inwardly.
Kurapika stole a glance at Illumi and to Mitara, and then looked in front.
Mr. Leorio started his mathematics class and his lecture.
Meanwhile, Mitara couldn't focus. She could feel that her hands are getting wet. She knew that someone is staring at her. Mitara gave a glance at her new seatmate. And then, she caught Illumi is staring at her.
"What?" she muttered.
Illumi slightly shook his head, and then gave a small smile.
Mitara rolled her eyes and tried hard to focus at Mr. Leorio's lectures. As her vision passed by on her classmates, she saw Shalnark and Feitan looking at her, rather, at them.
XXXXX
After an hour, the bell rang, that means classes' dismissal.
"Don't forget your Math homework," Mr. Leorio reminded his class.
"Yes, sensei!" The class replied.
Kurapika faced his back to talk to his red-haired best friend. "Mitara, Boss-sama said we have a meeting after our class. It will be held in his house today," he informed.
"Okay. Let's go to Killua and Gon first before we go to Boss-sama's house," she said while they are leaving the room.
"Sure." Kurapika answered.
"Hi."
Mitara and Kurapika looked at the owner of the voice that greeted them.
Illumi gave a small smile. "Hello, may I know your name?"
"I'm Mitara. He's Kurapika." She pointed at the blond beside her, while Kurapika nods.
"Nice to meet both of you. Are you going home? Can I go with you?"
"Uhm, gomen Illumi-san, but we have somewhere to do after this class. We can't go with you," Kurapika said after he glanced at Mitara.
"Is that so? Its okay, Kurapika-san. Maybe tomorrow, I guess?" He asked while looking intently at Mitara.
"Yeah."
"Okay, bye, Kurapika-san, bye, Mitara-san." Illumi waved and turned his back to leave the building.
Mitara is just looking at Illumi's shiny raven hair as he fades away in her vision.
"What can you say about our new classmate?" Kurapika asked her while they are going towards Gon and Killua's building.
"Hmm?" Mitara came to her senses when she heard her best friend's question.
"I can't read him. He looks fine, but, there's something on him that I can't decipher." Kurapika took a glance at Mitara.
"You feel it as well? You're right, Kurapika, there's something on him that, uhm, I think, disturbs me. And I can't point my finger on it."
"You sound so bothered. Is he really disturbing you by his presence?"
"Sort of…"
"Maybe we can discover it with Boss-sama in our meeting."
"Hope so…" Mitara sighed.
