When He Came Back

I really don't know him

After that incident I became the topic of the school for a week. And it really bothers me. I swear I'll kick him out of this school when I see him.

Then I saw Karl. He's just staring at me and I can see in his eyes that he has a lot of questions.

I know Karl. I also have a lot of questions too.

Then I saw that new kid outside their room talking to some girl. I don't know who she is and I don't care.

I looked at that guy as if I was going to kill him and hurriedly went after him. Andre and the rest of our friends hurriedly followed me trying to stop whatever I'll be doing to him. Karl also followed me.

Before they stop me I already punched him on his face and did my favorite kick (turning side kick) which was directly perfectly landed in his stomach.

Eveyone who saw was amazed.

I was amazed too. I did a perfect kick.

But then I saw his expression. It was serious and kind of scary. After that he walked slowly towards me and I can't even move. Why can't I move! Damn it!

When his face is only a few inches from my face. I could already hear his breathing and smell his breath. My favorite scent. Mint.

"I knew you'll like that scent." He whispered and kissed my ear

I gasped in surprise.

"I will never leave you again Katerina. I swear." Then he left me with no idea what just happened.

The bell rang for the last period and I hurriedly went back to my class.

I cannot concentrate on the lesson because of that new kid. Why me? Of all the girls in this school. Why is he messing up with me?

Until dismissal time I still keep on thinking about that new kid. Should I speak with with him? Maybe not. I just keep on embarrassing myself everytime I see or talk to him.

Beep beep!

"Mia get in!" Andre shouted

"No thanks. I prefer taking the bus."

"I said get in!" Andre shouted again

After I ignored Andre, I saw the new kid heading towards me.

Okay this is not great. I should avoid him. And then the next thing I realized is that I was already seating on the front seat of Karl's car.

Thank god.

"You owe me one." Karl break the silence inside the car

"Thank you so much. Just tell me what you want and I'll give it to you okay?"

Karl laughed.

I never thought I could hear that laugh again. How did we end up like this Karl? We were so happy back then.

I just gave him a smile.

"Uhm Mia? Can I ask you something?" Karl asked

"Of course. But not about Math problem. You know how much I hate Math." I replied with a joke to remove the awkwardness

"Do you, by any chance, know him?" He asked me seriously

"To tell you the truth, I don't know him, but" I looked outside the window of his car taking a deep breath "but his voice attracts me so much."

His car stopped after hearing what I said.

"He seems to know you." Karl faced me and held my hand. "Just keep away from him. Don't go near him or even talk to him. Okay?"

I just nod because I can't think of anything else to say.

He smiled. "Well, here we are."

Wow! We're already home.

"Thank you for the ride." I smiled back and went inside my house.

"See you tomorrow!" Karl shouted then left.

I missed how we used to be, Karl.
