I'm Sorry

Part 3

Idle left his project and books on his desk dince he will be back for them later. No one would destroy them, right?

Assuring that he already have his money, he quickly rushed to the back of the school. He doesn't want Fika to keep waiting.

While he was running, Xahji and Snazzy was following him sneakily. They tried to be descrete as posible.

"Why are we doing this again?" Snazzy asked her.

"C'mon. Aren't you curious to what Fika will tell Idle?" Xahji told him.

"I am."

"Then just follow me!" She said rather irritatedly.

"Fiiiinnnee....." Snazzy complained.

On the way, they saw Colonna and Siren chatting. Siren noticed them.

"Snazzy? Xahji? What are y-" Snazzy and Xahji covered Siren's and Colonna's mouth and pulled them behind the wall so Idle can't see them.

Siren removed Snazzy's hand and whisper-yelled. "What are you doing?!"

Xahji shushed him and pointed at Idle who exited through an emergency door.

"We're following him."

"Why?"

"Just cause!"

They followed Idle until he stopped.

"Fika!" Idle waved at him. This sent a pang in Siren's soul.

"Idle! Glad you could make it." They heard Fika say.

The 4 of them peeked behind a wall. Colonna sitting on the grassy ground, Xahji pressing her back at the wall, Siren crouching next to Colonna and Snazzy leaning on Siren.

They saw Fika starting to talk with Idle but they can't hear it.

"What are they talking about? I can't hear them." Snazzy said.

"Well, neither do I." Siren said.

Fika smiled at Idle and secretly glancing to the side. She knows that someone followed Idle on his way here. She must tell him quietly. And the only way she could do that is to whisper it in his ear.

"Idle, I have to see your soul." She said.

Idle turned yellow in fear. "Why?"

"We have to make sure. I don't want to see you dust here. Plus...." She pinned him to the wall. This made Siren very angry. Colonna and Xahji watched with interest as Snazzy doesn't give a damn.

"Uh... F-Fika?" Idle stuttered.

"Don't look now, but someone is watching us." Idle widened his eyes.

"Who?"

"You don't need to know." Fika said. "My priority is to see if the cracks got worse. Please. Idle. I don't want to break my promise to you." Idle hesitated but nodded anyways..

Slowly but carefully, Fika reached for Idle's soul under his shirt. She carefully took it out.

Idle shivered as soon as the contact happened. It felt foreign. It felt new.

It felt good.

"Idle..." Fika said sadly. "Your cracks got worse."

The four stalkers saw Fika pull out Idle's soul. This almost made Colonna scream. Good thing that Siren covered her mouth tightly.

A little too tightly.

Colonna noticed this and gripped Siren's wrist. She looked at Siren with pleading eyes that is saying 'please let me go'.
