The boy and Haku were able to have a nice chat with each other before the end of her shift, but who was he? Why wouldn't he tell her his name? And where could he possibly be going whenever she turns her head? Find out!

I'm going crazy. That's it. I'm going crazy.

She found herself walking in the park (in her uniform, no doubt) in the middle of the night. Her shift was oddly long (maybe because she was "late") and she was near tired. Sighing, she continued on her trek home, only to notice her two best friends walking ahead of her. She waved her hands to catch their attention, and fortunately, they did. She headed over to them, only to notice her third best friend with them.

"Hey, Kinsora!" She called.

"Hey there." Kinsora blinked. "Hey, why're you still in that outfit? Don't you hate it?"

"I'm going home right now." Haku answered. "Although…guys? I think I might be going crazy."

"Crazy?" Neru blinked. "Aren't you already?"

"NO, NOT LIKE THAT!" Haku screamed. "I mean…I'm seeing a Kaito lookalike everywhere I go."

"You sure it's not just Kaito in disguise?" Meiko asked. "I mean, he and his friends are throwing that big concert of theirs, right?"

"He sorta talked like him…" Haku sighed. "But no way. He would've ordered an ice cream cone or something. He said that he wasn't hungry."

"Wait, he came in your store?" Kinsora asked.

"Yeah…but he didn't order anything." Haku answered.

"That is odd…" Neru blinked. "You sure he didn't just run away from you?"

"Meiko's the only one who can do that to me." Haku answered.

"Yeah, I am." She laughed.

"Wow…" Neru shook her head. "Whatever. It's probably your imagination. I mean, if the guy really was Kaito or some lookalike of him, Gumi would've made a huge remark on it."

"Yeah, I guess so…" Haku sighed. "Still…it's weird."

"With someone who can vanish and appear like that, I guess it would be weird." Kinsora laughed. "But be careful. This guy could be a really good stalker."

"S-stalker?!" Haku jumped.

"Yeah, there is a chance for that." Neru nodded. "I mean, he vanishes wherever you look, he knows instinctively where you are, and…hold on, does he know your name?"

"He said that I looked familiar." Haku answered. "Like he knew me."

"Stalker." Neru nodded. "And he wouldn't tell you his name, right?"

"Right."

"Next time he finds you, punch him in the face and run!" Meiko instructed. "That way, he won't be able to follow you, and then call the police!"

"Um…O…K." Haku blinked.

"OK, we have to bring him out into the open." Neru nodded. "Well, see ya."

"Wait! You're just gonna LEAVE me here?!" Haku panicked.

"Stalkers won't go to their prey when they're near a group, right?" Meiko grinned. "We're just a scream away!"

Before Haku could do anything, the three of them were gone. She grumbled and continued to walk home, not even starting to think about what they meant by stalker. Come to think of it, he was really nice to her, and she was dressed in that really gay outfit…

Oh god…what if he really is a stalker?! She thought. No…not just a stalker…oh my god, he's a rapist! He's a rapist that uses his pretty boy looks to get people! Oh my god…

She started to panic for a few seconds as the image of the man hiding in one of the bushes began to haunt her consciousness. Before she knew it, she was ripping them apart one by one. After a few crazy seconds, she was able to confirm that she really was alone and there were no stalkers around to grab her. She sighed a breath of relief.

"Wow…you really know how to do a workout. Though I have to say that you really need to work on your kicks. They're not high enough."

She freaked out for a few seconds before darting her head to see the young man looking back at her, with a semi-impressed face on him. She tried to scream for her friends, but her voice, for some odd reason, would not work. Instead, she had to do what she thought she could do best.

She ran up to kick him in the waist, only to see him dodge all of her attacks. She started to go faster and more random, but all of them were being dodged so easily by this young man. In fact, he barely looked anything near phased. Impressed, in fact, was a better word.

"Nice. Nice." He dodged a rolling kick. "Not even a tear in the dress. You've had some practice on this!"

"I had to…for incidents such as this!"

She kicked his waist, a kick that he easily dodged, only to spin around and watch as she punched his face. But she didn't hit his face. Instead, she didn't even hit anything. In fact, all she could feel is more air, even though it was clear that she hit him in the face. She opened her fist, and saw that she could see her fingers go through his face. The look on his face slowly fell to a frown.

"Oh my god…" She gasped.

"You wanted to know why I wasn't hungry that time, and why you wouldn't believe me if I told you my problems." He laughed with a sad smile. "Well…now you know."

Yeah, these chapters are just flying out of my system! I should be able to finish this in…a couple dozen more chapters. Wow…and I still have so much to do…
