Kagami My Hero (Kagami X OC)

Chapter 21

Nova perspective~
I knew Kagami had only the best intentions for me, but he did mess up back there. Why, even when I was happy, did the other students still hate me? What did I really do to them? It felt like my whole world kept crashing around me and the only person who continued to fix it was Kagami.

It seemed like Ms.Carter was contemplating what to say. "Ms.Carter you ok?" She looked at me and then gave a weak smile. That smile was quickly wiped away she gave me a concerned look. "Listen Nova. I don't know how to say this but... Hmmm... This might not be the best time to tell you, or maybe it is... No that's not right. Um." I put my hand on her shoulder to show her that she could tell me.

"Nova today," she locked eyes with me and shifted to a serious tone "Your Aunt and Uncle got on a plane. While boarding the plane everything went fine. They did one final check up and started the engine. People heard a funny noise but thought nothing of it. As the plane took off one of the engines exploded. The school just called me now, your Aunt and Uncle were killed in the explosion. I'm so sorry."

She gave me a hug but I didn't feel anything. A familiar friend came back to accompany me. A friend I knew all to well. Numbness. Time seemed to slow down, everything moved at the pace of a snail. I felt cold and the room seemed to get darker. The darkness took over and I started to scream and cry. My Aunt and Uncle, gone. I didn't even get to say good bye. I didn't get to say 'thank you for taking care of me.' Nothing. The two people who had taken care of when my parents couldn't, gone.

It made me worry that I'd have to move back to my house in America. I didn't know my parents all that well and I didn't want to leave Kagami.

Ms.Carter said "Nova would you like to go home?" That's a good question. Where is home?
