Unfolded Love: Slaughter

Chapter 6

As Claire and Patrick walk along the hallway bringing her things and talking to each other, they can feel something strange - that there is someone following them. They abruptly walk as they continue to check if they are right. And the moment they turned their faces in front, they saw a silhouette of a girl. Claire was startled and starts to be nervous. "Who was that?" Claire said in wide eyes "We should head home as soon as possible" she added hysterically. "Don't be scared, I'm here to protect you."

The next day, Patrick went to the locker room to get some stuff for the first subject but he was surprised to see some pictures of him and Claire doing foolishness. He then looks from left to right hoping to see someone who could put it on his locker but a dismayed look registered to him. He recovered his posture quickly and did not just mind what he found out. Besides, he doesn't care whatever tricks they may implant with his relationship with Claire. A figure silently watching him from afar. On the other hand, Claire also received a hilarious gift from unknown people. First, someone sends her a picture of her together with Patrick because both of them are in the same org. Secondly, her face with a mark of big X. This made her startled and gained attention from various students. She was now the center of attraction so, she excuses herself and ran at her fastest speed. She arrived at her classroom and was surprised to see Maori. "Maori? Why are you here? Are you finding someone in this class?" she asked as she noticed the box holding by Maori. Maori smiled and said, "Actually I'm here because of you. Someone approaches me at the gate and asks if I could give this to you." She suddenly thinks of the person who sends this gift. She opened it joyfully but not long after the smile on her face vanished and change into nervousness. She feels her phone vibrate and checked it. It adds more thrills to her as she read it.

After that day, the school has become peaceful as students go home but not Claire. She remains at school and goes to the place where the sender told her to go to. Not long after she arrived, she heard a voice – a familiar one. She turns around and was no surprised that her judgment was right instead confusion hits her. "Patrick? It was you who texted me and ask me to come here?" "What? I should be the one asking you that."

"Don't you want it, guys?" they are shocked after hearing the voice then gaze at the person. They couldn't see that person's face and only see a grin plastered to the face of that person. "What was this for? You frightened us," she speaks and feels relieved.

"Nothing at all, I've prepared something special for the both of you" she explains while slowly exposing herself. Patrick and Claire might be confusing but they grab the opportunity to enjoy the night. Little did, they know, it is their last day seeing each other and to the world.
