Chapter 7
"MARRY EACH OTHER?!" Natsume and Mikan shouted.
"Don't worry. The witch said that you must marry each other before having your eighteenth birthday. So you can prepare for almost 8 years. Don't be in such a hurry."
"Are you out of your mind old woman? We don't even really know if you're not lying. How can we get married without seeing a proof that what you say is true?" Natsume started to get really angry.
"I already know that you wouldn't believe me. And it's not your fault. Well then.
"Mother, I'm here." A voice of a girl was heard. The three looked at the girl.
"Mother, why are these two very cute children here? Oh are you from alice academy? So cute.." She attempted to pinch Natsume's cheeks when Natsume slapped her hand. "You're mean. I just want to pinch your cheek."
"Who are you?" Natsume was still angry.
"Oh yeah. I haven't introduced myself. I'm Uchiyama Hannah. I'm her daughter. And I'm also a former student in Alice Academy. Wait mom, you still haven't answer my question. Why are these two doing here? Don't tell me you…"
Before she finished her statement, her mother interrupted. "Stop!"
"Why mother? So you really… Mother!"
"Umm, Hannah, let's just talk in private." Her mother said.
"What are you two hiding from us? Is there something that we must know that we don't know?" Natsume shouted.
"It's getting suspicious in here." Mikan whispered to herself.
Hannah and her mother went somewhere behind a door in their house in which they can't be seen by Natsume and Mikan.
"Mother? Why are you again doing such thing?"
"I just wanted to have a delicious breakfast tomorrow."
"But I thought we've already promised not to do those things again. My conscience kills me everytime we do something like that!"
"But I miss the looks, the smell and the taste!"
"But mother! A promise is a promise! I cannot sleep at night if I see those two.. Uh! I can't even say it!"
"But I cannot help it. They're an alice. Who could someone like us ever decline kids like those two!"
"But don't you forget? We promised to change. And a change could make us even better."
"You're killing me Hannah!"
"Natsume, what do you think they're talking about?"
"You're asking me? How could I know."
"I'm afraid Natsume! What if they want to kill us? What if they're ghosts? What if they're aliens? What if they're MONSTERS?! Mikan held Natsume's arm and Natsume tried to break free.
"What are you thinking? They're no such thing as ghost, aliens or even MONSTER! Get it?!"
"But I can't help to worry about it. Why don't they want us to know what they're talking about?"
"Don't ask me baka! I'm also thinking of that. But I can't think of a reason. Unless…"
"Unless what?"
"Unless…"
