Void

Chapter 1 - Solitude

BOREDOM

That's what I feel everyday. I hate being with other people. Being with someone I'm not close to makes me uneasy. They can't blame me for it, I grew up never relying on others except my parents, of course. My name is Paje Lopper a loner guy who is currently living my college.

History class always ends up with me staring at my watch trying to kill lots and lots of time, seemingly busy infront of the teacher in my class so that he won't call me and make me answer some of his boring questions about history. It's the past! Why do we need to study it over again.

After our deadly history class there's still more hours to beat being all alone. The whole day seem like yesterday. It's like everyday I repeat the same thing all over again.

The next day wasn't any better, today's friday and like what I always do on friday's I leave my history textbook at home cause thank good we only meet twice a week.

While walking at corridor I didn't noticed a girl was standing infront of me and it ended up with us bumping into each other.

"What the." She complained.

"I'm sorry. I didn't saw you." I apologized trying to keep her from talking.

I walked faster towards my class, opening the door of the classroom took me by surprise. There she was infront of the whole class beside our teacher Mr. Clavero.

"Wow, she's fast." I mumbled.

"You're late Mr. Lopper , but nevermind that and take a seat because I'm going to introduce your new classmate." Our professor stated. So I rushed inside the room and took my seat at the back.

"Today a transfer student came in you should all treat her properly. Ms. Pentoja introduce yourself." Our professor told her.

"Uhhm. Hi everyone. My name is Rikka Pentoja from Adjil High School nice to meet you all." She introduced.

Mr. Clavero looked around to find a vacant seat in the room for her. Luckily there is a vacant seat in the room but sadly it's beside me. Mr. Clavero looked at me first then pointed the seat beside me. She is walking to her seat but before she actually take a seat she gave me a big smile. I don't know if she is weird or not but why did she smiled at me after what happened earlier.

Mr. Clavero announced that our history class for monday will be moved to friday. Sh t I left my textbook I didn't thought we'll be having our history today. Mr. Clavero began our history class.

I'm glad that he didn't call me to answer his questions. I don't know why but most of the meetings I have with our history teacher there will not be a time I wouldn't be called. Half an hour passed, he asked everybody to do a seatwork. Great I don't need to listen to his discussion anymore but the seatwork needs a textbook. Just my luck.

I don't want to share textbook with others let alone the transfer student. I raised my hand and ask "Sir, I forgot my textbook can I just go to the library?"

"Fine then." He answered. The go signal was given so I stood up and went to the library.

Nobody was at sight. Now my alone time has come. I like it when I'm inside a secluded place. It really makes me relax. I sat at the corner of the library and decided to take a nap for about half hour.

A creepy sound of footsteps woke me up, with my blurred eyesight because of my thirty minute nap I saw a huge blurred man infront of me. After rubbing my eyes to clear my eyesight there was nothing there, just a new set of books.

I wasn't sure if I saw a ghost or I'm just in my solitude situation that made me imagine things. I took a book and started skimming through the pages to put my crazy thoughts away. After a few minutes of reading, another sound of those creepy footsteps but this time its different from earlier. When I turn around to see who it was.

"Hayiee. It's me.."
