PERSONA Chapter 15
- CLANDESTINE INCORPORATED - TUESDAY - 2:00 P.M. -
Timothy actually wanted to stop her from leaving and fix the misunderstanding between them when she showed him a very genuine smile.
He paused and just stared at her as she started to laugh and continued to walk away.
She was actually quite tall than the average percent of students here. Seeing her walking away, her back view was so eye catching. Her silky and curly long black hair were swaying like they were dancing with the faint wind, her black long sleeved girls' polo, ankle length pants - Clandestine Incorporated customized uniform made her figure look more ethereal than ever.
Such a sight stunned him, so he obviously could not bear to ignore and stop it at the same time.
Although his reaction weren't exaggerated, his eyes were showing a very rare and unbelievable glint of appreciation to the young lady who actually looked more enchanted than this whole school.
It was supposed to be a simple glace and he was supposed to be angry but who knew something like this would happen? Flowers were on full bloom this spring but why did it seem to bloom more?
After laughing, Eve was awed when she saw pink petals falling from the large trees surrounding the hallway. She raised her hand, her fingers slender and tall.
She caught a petal and it was as smooth as her skin and it made her calm down.
When Eve calmed down, she looked at the ground for a few moments and thought of what just happened a few minutes ago.
Her dark eyes blinking with an unknown flow of emotion - an emotion that was very unfamiliar to her. As if she felt something different and a pair of scorching hot eyes, she glanced back and unknowingly - their eyes met.
Eve smiled faintly, turned around and started to continue her rounds on the school.
Eve didn't know that the moment their eyes met, the clog of her tragic destiny that Cashmiere tried her best to stop... had already begun to start its course.
And once you are destined for something, there was no escaping it.

- CLANDESTINE INCORPORATED - TUESDAY - 3:00 P.M. -
"Tim, what the hell is wrong with you? If you are angry, do not take it out of the game. Gadgets have feelings too, you know!" said Peter - the gadget freak, which made me Stan chuckle
"You were in a good mood before we arrived here, right? What happened to you? You have been sighing every three minutes ever since we came back to the house" Peter added as Tim dropped the game controller frustratingly and lay down on the sofa
Tim: "Tsk. Don't remind me, okay? It just seriously pisses me off"
Stan and Peter were worried but Anna, obviously could not even care less. That's Timothy, you know. When was it that he was not moody? He is actually more moody than any other girls she knew. To be more specific, he is more moody than her when she is on her period.
Anna: "Do not mind Tim! Anyways, where is the new student? Sir Lucas said that she should be here by noon, but its almost afternoon now" She gasped as if being reminded of something and added, "Could it possibly be that she got lost? Could she have been into trouble? After all, our house is so far away!"
She immediately pushed Peter lightly and said, "Peter, go and fetch her! Hurry!" causing the latter to look at her dumbfounded, as if insulted and betrayed
"You are abusing my persona, Anna! And anyways, she is already a student of our school. She could handle such a simple thing as finding her dormitory." and added, "And besides, maybe she is with a school officer or staff and is currently doing a school tour by now. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Anna was speechless. She was stubborn and spoiled but she's not entirely unreasonable. She is actually very excited about having a new member in the group, specially since the new member is a girl. As the only girl in the group, other than thinking that it is a good thing, she actually felt quite a huge burden from it. She could choose to leave the group but because she has known them all her life and treats them as her second family, she chose to stay. And now that there is a new girl in the group, she can not wait and meet her!
Thinking of all the time they would be having, Anna calmed down and nodded.
Anna: "Alright, I will wait for a bit longer"
She later then continued on arranging the food. After that, she went back to the living room and watched Stan playing a chess game through his phone. When she heard Tim's "Tsk" sound, her lips twitched as she took a nearby pillow and then threw it at him.
"Tim, stop doing that! You are so tactless! Don't you know that your mood is contagious?! Do that again, and I will beat you up!"
Tim on the other hand effortlessly caught the pillow and embraced it, still staring at the unknown.
Wearing gold-rimmed glasses with a very thin, long and golden-like thread hanging down the glasses up to his white ears. While embracing the pillow thrown by Anna, his left hand was holding his favorite book and his chin leaning on it.
His expression was weird, not to mention that he was dazed; as if thinking of something so confusing yet amusing at the same time. His eyes shining with an unknown glint of interest.
When he saw some pink flowers flowing down the window, he was stunned and smiled as if remembering something worth smiling for. And yet when he realized the subject of the memory, he immediately sat up straight and tightly embraced the pillow as if he was shocked dumbstruck from his stupidity.
Tim: "TSK"
As if feeling a malicious intent, Tim peered at his group and immediately caught sight of Anna's killer eyes as if telling him 'I-DARE-YOU-TO-DO-THAT-AGAIN'
Tim gulped and coughed, seemingly embarrassed by his behavior and breathed heavily.
When the group realized that he was ready to talk about what was worrying him, Stan and Peter stopped what the were doing and looked at him.
Tim: "It's just.. well, I witnessed bullying earlier when we were apart. They were bullying this girl who seemed like a lower year student and since I could not just walk away from it, I helped her"
Peter and Anna: ".........." 'Your face seemed happy and proud, so why are you in a bad mood exactly?'
Stan understood the look at the two people's faces and chuckled as he asked "And? What was it that made you so frustrated? Could it be that she did not even thank you?"
Tim clapped and said, "Yeah! That's right. She even said that I interrupted them and made it seem like I was a huge burden! She even said that the bullies were scared because of my face and that it was not because I was handsome! Hah! The nerve of that woman!"
