These Feelings
Chapter 7. Realization Time!
Author's Note: I haven't update in a while since I ran out of ideas. But now I'm back and I'm twice the inspiration! So enjoy!
Karma didn't come to school the day after that. Nagisa thought it was natural for him to stay at home after what happened yesterday. But at the same time, he felt tired, like he couldn't even move a muscle.
If Karma-kun was here, he'd say something like, "Feeling tired?" with that pretty smile of his. I miss h…
Nagisa shook his head, thinking about and looking over at a certain redhead's table. He tried every single way to get rid of Karma's image in his mind.
No use.
Kayano, one of Nagisa's best friends, certainly noticed that something is wrong.
"Hey Nagisa! Is something wrong?" Kayano asked with concern.
"Eh, what? Nothing is wrong at all!" Nagisa panicked and smiled.
There's definitely something wrong.
"Oh really!? Nagisa, you're the worst liar in the world," Kayano rolled her eyes at his actions.
"Yeah, I know... If you really want to know, let's talk somewhere private," Nagisa sighed.
Lunch break came, Kayano and Nagisa sat at the corner of the Class E's building with their bento.
"Are you going to tell me what happened now?!", Kayano ran out of patient as she exclaimed.
"Fine.", Nagisa looked down to his crossed legs and told Kayano about the confession the day before.
To the blue haired teen's surprise, Kayano didn't look shocked or anything at all; instead she just sat there and listened.
"You're not going to say anything?" Nagisa asked. He felt like he just lifted something heavy off of his shoulders.
"Karma's feelings for you was kind of obvious…", Kayano shrugged.
"What?!" Nagisa was astonished.
Did that mean everyone practically knew about it?!
"I mean, when he got back to our class, the only person who he said 'hi' was to you. And he was always there to help you when you get bullied by people from the main building," Kayano told him, her analyzations.
"But I don't have any feelings for him. Besides, we're both guys anyway," Nagisa's voice was trembling; but why did he feel like crying?
"Are you sure?" Kayano asked. It was not her business, but anybody would be curious about Nagisa's feelings in this situation.
"Huh?" Nagisa answered the question with a question, confused.
"Are you sure you don't have any feelings for him? You seemed like you did," Kayano pointed out softly.
"Eh? N-No way!" Nagisa's face was completely pink. Smoke might have as well blown out of his ears.
Kayano stared at Nagisa for a long time as the boy hopelessly tried to stay calm. Kayano finally continued.
"You know, I never like anyone before, but I will say what everyone probably would have said. Follow your heart, I guess…" Kayano spoke slowly.
The bell rang right after that and they got back to class.
Nagisa couldn't stop thinking about what Kayano said. The same went with Karma.
Follow your heart huh? But I don't know what my heart has for me to follow.
After school, Nagisa decided that he will go home and curled up in his bed. But instead walking to the train station, he was running to the opposite direction.
He didn't even understand where he was running to. His mind was completely blank, it seemed only his heart knew what's going to happen, and why he was running.
His heart has the final answer.
The sky was like his feeling, dark and sad. Suddenly, it started pouring. Little drops of rain at first, but a complete disaster the next second. He didn't bring an umbrella, but he didn't care. He just kept running.
Puddles of water on the ground was splashed as Nagisa sprinted by. His breath was short and heavy. His clothes were dripping wet. But he still didn't stop. He felt like he lived to this point just to do this.
He finally slowed down to approach a big mansion in a rich neighborhood.
It was the biggest mansion in the block. The gate was coal black and enormous. The fence was covered with vines, climbing out from the grounds. It's Karma's house.
Nagisa didn't know why he was there either, but he wanted to see Karma. It was just a sudden feeling that he couldn't explain. But he already climb this fence once so it's not a big deal.
A few seconds later, he was already in Karma's yard. He walked to the door and pressed the doorbell.
As Karma opened the door, Nagisa could see the red head's face. Two words- sad and surprised.
"Nagisa-kun? What are you doing here?!"
Author's Note: After reading the new Assassination Classroom update, I realized another good manga is going to end soon, so sad Anyway, I think I'm going to update the next chapter soon. Bye bye!
