“Life is really boring... Will this boring kind of life continues until I die?” I said to myself in mind while sitting in my bed.

I stood up then came downstairs. “My name is Ren Francesco, my dad is an Italian and my mom is a half Japanese and American. Well they both love me…maybe because I’m there only child? Well I don’t mind it, I live luxurious my dad is a businessman, he’s still in Italy for an important meeting.”

“Ren will you eat with me?” my mom asked with a bright smile.

“Okay.” I answered and sat on the chair and began slicing up the steak.

“Ren how’s school?” my mom asked with a smile.

“It’s okay mom…” I answered then ate a piece of steak.

“Okay that’s good, by the way Ren I’m going to follow dad to Italy.”

“Oh I see…” I just answered without looking at my mom’s eyes.

“So will you be okay without me?” My mom asked with a worried face.

“I’m going to be okay, I’ve been trained by dad since I was a kid that won’t be a problem, right? I answered while slicing another piece of steak.

“Well your right, I guess I’m overthinking it…” My mom closed her eyes with relief.

“I need to go mom, I’ll be late for school, Thanks for the food.” I stood up and took my bag and then left the house then headed for school.

“Life is really boring… nothing to do at all, go to school every day then after school what do you do in your house? Just sleep? Play games? Study? That’s nonsense!” I said in mind while letting out an angry face.

“Yo Ren!!!” Someone shouted at me then when I look back it was a friend of mine.

“Did you study last night?” He asked. “This is Ryuta Greywood, a friend of mine and he’s a half American and Japanese.”

“No I didn’t, studying is nonsense.” I answered.

“Wow you’re really cold… Come on smile, you’re always in a cold look, smile!” he pointed his 2 fingers in his cheeks then let out a big bright smile.

“You smile on your own, I won’t smile.” I just walked directly and just ignored him.

“Hey! You’re really cold Ren…” he said while catching up with me.

Tmp!Tmp! (Sound of footsteps)

“Hmm… so that’s the target, huh? Interesting…hehe…”

“Will you stop following me Ryuta, you’re annoying!” I said to him.

“Ehh!?We go in the same school ya know!” he said to me eyes to eyes.

“Hahh…” I sigh.

Tmp!Tmp!

“Hmm!?” I looked my eyes in the back.

“Hmm? What’s wrong Ren?”

“Will you go ahead first Ryuta?”

“Ehh? Umm…okay….”

Ryuta went ahead without me. And I still kept staring at the wall.

“Will you come out?” I asked.

“Hehehehe…I’ve been found…” the man said wearing a black clothes and a black sunglasses.

“Who are you? And why are you following me?” I asked the man.

“Hehehe…Who am I? I’m the one who will kill you!” the man said and get a pocket knife from his pocket and attacked me.

I dodged the attack then kicked the man in the stomach.

“Ahh…*caugh**caugh* very good young man… You’re not easy to defeat.” The man said in a big smile. “Who are you, and what do you want?” I asked him.

“I’m Abraham Redwool, an assassin; the associations send me a letter to kill you.” The man showed a black letter and smiled. Then we heard voices of some people heading here.

“Hahh...Annoying… Let’s continue this later…” the man said as he left. I continued walking until I reached the school. As I reached the school gate Ryuta was waiting there, “Ren! Over here!” he shouted and I came to him. “Where did you go?” he asked. “Nowhere…” I answered directly. “Ehh! Come on tell me!” he grabbed my shoulders. “Nowhere…” I said to him.

Dingdong!!!

“Come on, the bell rang.” I said and just walk towards the school building. “Hey! Wait for me!” he yelled. We came to our classroom; I and Ryuta aren’t in the same class. “Good morning class.” As the teacher greeted us we stood up and bowed then greeted the teacher “Good morning professor!” the whole said while we are bowing, after we greeted the teacher we sat. As the teacher is teaching I just look at the sky in the window. “Someone is after my life?” I said to my mind “Well what do they gain if they killed me? If they want to gain money from me, they should’ve just kidnap me then ask a ransom.” I said to my mind as I closed my eyes.

“Hmm!” I reacted silently “Professor! May I go to the clinic, I don’t feel well…” I stood up and asked my teacher. “Indeed you don’t look like your fine, okay you may go Mr. Francesco.” The teacher answered and then I left the classroom and the teacher continued the lesson. When I came out in the classroom I ran towards the rooftop. “Hooh…? You sensed my presence, you are skilled indeed.” Abraham said as he smiled. “This time no one will interfere us.” Abraham said as he took the pocket knife from his pocket and attacked me. “Hahaha!” He laughed as I dodged the attack, “I’m not done yet!” he turned his hand then directly attacked it to me, I quickly dodged it. “Hmm?” I looked at the side of my uniform, and then it was cut from the knife attack.
