Chapter IV

I woke up, got up for school, took a quick shower and chugged down my medications with a cup of coffee, after getting my stuff I started walking to the bus stop.

When I arrived at school Ren got up to wish me a good morning and start chitchatting.
"Should I show you around a bit today? I think we both have time after school right?" he asked, excited like a little puppy.
A soft smile left my lip, I agreed to his plans and he sat down on his chair.

In the first break he pulled out a small bento, put it on my table and placed his chair paralleled to mine.
"Did you not bring food Edele?" he asked in a worried tone. "Hm... we can share my bento! Would you like to eat first? I only have one pair of chopsticks..." he said, while starting to blush all over his face.
I shook my head a no. "I'm not hungry, sorry" I said without even a touch of emotion in my voice.

Our last two lessons were physical education, I got changed in the girls locker room, some of the girls gave me quite weird looks, I sighed.
"Why are you hanging out with Ren?" a blonde girl with tanned skin asked me.
I looked into her eyes, a little confused.
"I'm not hanging out with him, he started talking to me and offered to show me around town, what's wrong about that?" I said in a calm voice, trying not to show how pissed I was.
She turned away from me and got changed, I did the same, the girls started staring at all the scars and wounds, I started shaking a bit.
"What are these?" one of them asked, looking at my scars.
"I have a cat." I tried really hard not to stutter, quickly put on a shirt and a jacket and walked into the sports hall.

Afer the lesson I got changed as fast as I could, walking straight out of the locker room, I stumbled against Ren, he looked down on me, he seemed quite worried.
"Edele, you okay?" he asked in a calming tone.
I smiled at him, nodding my head slightly.
"Having him worry wouldn't end well, his little whores would start fights wouldn't they?" I thought to myself, looking at the tall brownhaired boy for a moment.
He smiled down on me gently "I'm glad you're alright, should I bring you home again today? I could show you around a little, if you wouldn't mind." he said in his usual calming tone, I really enjoyed talking to him, he wasn't a person to keep conversations going by force.

After getting some things I forgot in the classroom we got going, first he showed me a nice looking café near the school and then we ended up at a small lake, rather far from my bus stop and the school.
We sat down and talked for a while, he ended up asking a question I wish he would've never asked, "Did you move here because of the accident?" his voice sounded concerned, I could feel his brown eyes staring at me in worry.
"Yeah, pretty much, it was just a shock for all of us." I smiled at him for a moment, quickly looking back into the lake.

"Oh how I wish you were a stupid idiot like everyone else." I thought to myself.

After a few more minutes I stood up and grabbed my bag, "I'm sorry, I've got to go for today, thank you for bringing me here." I smiled at him, I then turned around and started walking back.
"I'll see you tomorrow?" he asked without receiving an answer.
