Chapter 8 Raven

Rena's happy because she can see Elsword's smile.
She doubted that Elsword actually is some sort of a secret agent since he said he got a tracking device in his body, did it planted inside his body or he meant that he just bring it?
However, she's still very angry.
"That brat... That brat... That BRAT!"
Elsword still keep on ignoring her.
Even though they're childhood friends.

"Hey, Rena why are you so worked up?"
Aisha patted her back.

"It's because of that Elsword! Just when will he stop ignoring me!"
Rena's throwing a tantrum.
But Aisha looked at her as a girl who's desperate for a notice from her boyfriend.
"You looked like a desperate girlfriend, Rena."
"HUH!? Don't joke with me, who wants to be with him! I just want him to notice my existence!"
Rena's glaring at Aisha but Aisha just laugh it off.

"Yeah right~"
"Aishaaaa!"
They pinch each other's cheeks.
And then Elsword came into their class.

"-What the hell are you both doing here?"
He's dumbfounded and stunned at the front door.

"You!"
Rena glared at him.
"So, Aisha, what are you doing in here?"
"WHA-!? Elsword, you're trying to pick a fight with me!?"
"Oh, we're just playing around."
"I see, good bye."
"HEY!"
Rena chased him but he close the door immediately.
"THAT BOY IS JUST SO ANNOYING!"
Aisha patted Rena's shoulder.
"It's fine, Rena. He will eventually notice you."
"It's not like I want to be noticed! Like I said! I only want him to acknowledge my existence!"
'What is the difference?'
Aisha thought as she smiled wryly.

Can't accept the treatment, Rena chased Elsword.

"Hey, Elsword!"

"... What again?"

Elsword's annoyed because Rena kept on bugging him.
So he gave up and listen to her once in awhile.

"Why you kept on ignoring me!?"

"Why should I tell you, moron?"
He stuck out his tongue.

"You-! ... *Sigh* Forget it, I want to confirm things, what did you mean by tracking device last night? Are you a spy? A secret agent?"
Rena's not in the mood to get angry.

Elsword's eyes widened and then he broke into a laugh.
"Hahahaha! You'd actually believe in that after last night's incident? You're really an idiot."

"What do you mean!"

"Actually, me and Ciel are cousins."

"... Huh? What?"

Rena's dumbfounded.
She didn't understand what's Elsword's talking about.

"Ciel told me that he want to do a prank, so I play along with him, did our act last night was too fabulous that you didn't realize that we're just acting?"

Come to think about it, Elsword did trigger the gun without hesitation before.
Rena thought.
And then she facepalmed.

"I'm so stupid to believe in you."
"Hey, it's not like we're going to do that everyday, it's a rare case since it was Aisha's birthday you know?"

Elsword turns around.
"Rena, thank you."
"Huh, for what?"
Elsword didn't answer back.
He just left.

Rena tilted her head in confusion.
What did he thank her for?
"What a weirdo..."

Homeroom is starting.
Their teacher, Ariel's bringing an unexpected news.
"Good morning, students. We have new transfer student here. Come in, Raven."
Raven, the cold looking man entered the room.
His bang's quite long but not as long as Elsword's.
He combed his hair tidily.
Unlike Elsword's spiky messy hair.

"Nice to meet you. My name's Raven."
"Kyaaaa! He's so cool!"
Fangirls are starting to appear one by one.

"What... They're getting excited over a boy."
"Said the one who got many fanboys."
Aisha teased Rena.

"Hey, I'm not!"
And then Rena can feel Raven's gaze.
He's staring at her.

"Rena, it's been awhile, isn't it?"
"Huh?"

Raven seemed to know Rena.
Rena who's dumbfounded tilted her head.

'He knew Rena, the Queen?'
'Wow! Just what's this!? What's this?!'
'A cliché moment of where childhood friends meet again?'
'But Rena didn't seem to recognize him.'
'That's why we call it cliché!'

Rena didn't understand what's the crowd's whispering about.
She only look at Raven's face.

"Have you forgotten about me?"

Rena frowned.
She tried her best to remember a black hair man in her memory.
And she finally remembered.

"Ah! You are-!"

Raven smiled.
"Long time no see, junior."
