An unrecognizable classroom met my eyes...The walls were bare and the floor was decked in tiles, unlike the dark blue carpet in many classrooms. Another one of those hot summer days where the blazing sun forces itself through the open windows, as it's rays shone through, resting on the fading tiles. It was obvious that the room was not maintained well, given the decomposing floors underlying the rays. Looking up, unlike the sophisticated technology that so many of my peers were used to, formerly white fans were all that my eyes gazed upon.
"This room used to be for the special education students. Being a part of the normal classes, I guess this must be an uncommon. The advantages rise further for the advance ones, rather unfair don't you think?" A deep silky voice said smoothly with a deep rumble of authority. Turning around, the reality of recognition clouded my eyes. I have heard this voice many times before assembly! It could only belong to one person, the vice president of the council, Zen Ashley, a self-proclaimed gentleman.
There's a figure in the middle of the room, encircled by delicately piled tables, creating a den. With a small creak of the wooden chair, the boy pushed it backward. Rising up gracefully, he rest his physics books on the chair.
Black hair swayed gently with movement, complementing the hands that straightened his shirt. Unlike Kai, he was wearing the proper school uniform, a long white dress shirt and dark green pants, completed with the school's red neck tie. Swaying on his neck were a pair of spectacles...Wait! He was missing the school sweater!
"My sweater is on Kai, I couldn't possibly let him out of the door without something presentable." He drawled out while studying me...His face impassive as his eyes locked on me.
"Zen, this is Arisa, she wants to join the game and I was wondering if she could join our group?" Kai gestures at my direction, the presence of uncertainty enshrouded his voice.
"What do you know about this business?" Zen mouth scrunched and his eyebrows arched, ignoring Kai request.
"Nothing," I said, it was the truth... Alice didn't elaborate on the fine details...
"Nothing WHATEVER?" He persisted barked, seemingly taken aback by my words, Engulfed with disbelief, he twitched, displeased by my statement.
'Nothing whatever,' I replied.
A flash of annoyance cross his face and he snorted. His head tilted downwards, as if he was looking down on me. In a robotic voice, he questioned, "There are a lot of rumours about you, they say u have foreign blood...How true is that?"
"Hey! That's not nice of you to say-." Kai's plea died in his throat with a glare from Zen.
"Silence Kai!"
"Do you know what they say of you? "He smiled pleasantly at me, a smile on his lips but cold eyes stared back. They were like two black holes void of any emotion...
