The Kiss Of A Spirit

Chapter 6

Frida felt like garbage the next morning. Her body felt hot, her head hurt, her stomach ached, and she was tired. She pulled herself out of bed and dragged herself over to the kitchen table that morning and when Manny served breakfast she felt like she was gonna throw up.

"Are you okay?" He asked her. "You look terrible."

"Thanks." She groaned. "I feel terrible."

She hung her head down and started to fall asleep on the table but she was snapped awake when she felt Manny touch her forehead.

"Uh Manny what are you doing?" She asked looking flushed.

"Just as I suspected you have a fever, get back into bed."

"No I'll be alright." She stood up, grabbed her bag, and headed for the door only to suddenly start feeling dizzy and faint. Manny quickly caught her swooning body and helped her up.

"No you're staying home today."

"But I can't miss school."

"Why not? School isn't important anyway."

"Maybe not to you but if I miss another day at school I'll be expelled."

"But you can't go anywhere in this condition you can hardly stand."

"I have an idea." Pablo said. "Frida why don't you stay here and send Manny to school disguised as you. He can make a very convincing woman."

"Really?"

Manny glared at Pablo while secretly vowing revenge on him for revealing that information. So Frida will be staying home and taking it easy today while Manny will be filling in for her in a very convincing disguise. He looked exactly like her except for his eyes, they were still brown because you know what they say about a person's eyes they're the gateway to the soul and no one can hide their soul. Anyway though Manny had everyone in school convinced that he was Frida he did not enjoy the act of cross dressing.

"Curse you Frida." He thought angrily. "I will make certain that you pay for this atrocity."

His ears then picked up the sound of teenage girls screaming excitedly as Aaron Hunt walked into the classroom after being absent for a few days.

"Hello ladies." He said smiling at them and causing them to swoon. "Morning Frida, how are things back at home?"

"Oh just wonderful." Manny said in a feminine voice while trying to mask his distaste for the young chonchon.

"Say there's something different about you though I can't put my finger on it."

Aaron looked at the supposed woman skeptically trying to figure out what was so different about her. However he couldn't figure out. Manny was relieved, at first he was worried that Aaron would be able to see right through him due to his supernatural senses but Aaron was just as easily blinded by his appearance as the humans.

"What?! The tiger goes here?!" Aaron cried when he found out that Manny was now a student at Leone High School. "Great! I was hoping to use my time at school to get close to Frida so could steal her spiritual mark but with Manny around I won't get a chance. I better act fast while he's not here."
