When Kai arrived in front of Jack's house, he saw Jack waiting for him. Jack had a serious and angry look on his face. It was clear that he was angry that Kai was so late. Kai knew he was wrong this time. As Jack took him by the arm and dragged him into the house, the guilty boy had already decided to bow his head and respect the judge's decision.
"Do you enjoy waiting for people?! I've been waiting for you for half an hour, I'm tired of waiting. "said Jack. Kai bowed his head in embarrassment and apologized. Scratching his head with his index finger, who knew if he really enjoyed waiting?
"Did you call Kevin? Where is he? Is he here yet?" Kai said. Maybe he could take the blame off himself and put Kevin in his place.
But things had been too late too long to be in his favor.
"Your grandfather is here. Aren't you going to tell your grandfather why you're so late? "said the chubby-cheeked, blue-eyed boy who walked into the room of a few square meters. He ruffled his hair coolly put his foot up against the wall and tried to look at Kai, but it didn't seem to make him any more handsome than a grinning anchovy.
Kai and Jack immediately turned their heads to the window overlooking the street and refused to look at Kevin. They were afraid their souls would commit suicide.
"Well, let's get started then. What did you find out?"
Kai continued as if nothing had happened and let the subject drop, but the others were still aware of something. Why hadn't this boy told them why he was late? Kai was encountering so many things that were not normal that listening to his life was like reading a book.
On top of that, I want to mention one situation in particular. You might question how such young children could find Jace, who hid himself so well. But you didn't think Jack, who spent most of his childhood at the police station in his mother's absence, would just wait until his father was out of work, did you? The harshness of his upbringing, as well as his thirst for knowledge, led him to acquire interesting skills at a young age.
"First of all, we didn't find much," Jack said. His eyes had lost the funny, serious demeanor of before.
"Yeah, and the only thing we did find was surveillance footage. We looked for people of the height and weight you said, people named Jace," Kevin said.
"But again, not a lot of people came up. The ones that did weren't capable of doing this. We were able to get something out of the surveillance footage." said Jack.
"We found the direction the killer went and the direction Jace went."
"The killer headed east from the hospital. The kid Jace went somewhere near the school," Jack said.
"We're going east then," Kai said and as he stood up, Kev grabbed his arm and made Kai sit back down. Kai was very easily aroused. He didn't even realize what he was in for anymore.
"First tell me why you're late," Kai said.
"I met someone. She-" Kai smiled as he spoke and his eyes lit up. These things could not escape the eyes of Kevin.
"From the look in your eyes, she's very beautiful," said Kevin. Jack leaned back in the chair and chuckled lightly.
"I'd appreciate it if you don't interrupt me and yes she was beautiful I have to admit because you'll notice something in what I'm saying." The two friends were surprised when Kai spoke like that. Because Kai would not easily call a girl beautiful. In fact, Kai had never called a girl beautiful until now.
Because of this situation, they thought he was gay until now.
Kai told them what had happened and when he got to the part where the eyes glowed, Jack suddenly jumped out of his seat. Kevin asked before him.
"Is it the same again?"
"No, it was different this time. If this was really something that happened with my emotions, it wasn't fear or anger this time. It was different from the feelings before. Maybe it was... love." Kevin's eyes widened even more when Kai said that. Jack jumped up with laughter and started laughing hysterically, hitting the couch. His exaggerated laughter took away all of Kevin's desire to laugh.
"Wow! Even a handsome boy like you can fall in love," Jack said when he calmed down.
"I haven't gotten to where you'd be surprised yet,"
"Have you lost control again?! "said Kevin.
"No, the power in me wasn't coming out, it was waiting, like it was waiting for something. There was a knife on the ground and I cut my hand picking it up. That's when the power came out and the wound closed quickly."
"So it's something new?"
"Yes, I also realized something, these powers are based on emotions. I was so angry in the fight at school, and when I met him, I felt warm inside. No matter how much I protest, I realize it's love."

"How strange, we used to think someone was crazy if they told us such things... now... Everything seems so much more normal."
"I still can't get used to Kai being attracted to a girl at first sight."
"..."
Kai could only roll his eyes at Jack's words. Only a few like him
"I wonder how much more power you'll have? "Jack broke the silence and everyone started talking again.
"Wait, it's not over yet. Then they brought a mirror. I knew the inner fluctuations were still there. They were more intense in my eyes. when I looked in the mirror I saw that my eyes were red." Kai said this in a confused way, but he already remembered his eyes on the day of the trial. Only Jack and Kevin didn't know that.
"Red?"
"Your eyes are red! But how?"
"I don't know either, so I quickly averted my eyes so Emma wouldn't freak out. Then I watched the fluctuation in my body slowly fade away, and I watched my eyes return to their original state through the comb. And then I came here." Soon after Kai started to tell the story, they started to look at him questioningly.
"What is it?"
"Who's Emma?" said Jack. His grin grew wider as he spoke. Kai was thinking of all sorts of escape plans.
"Oh, her? Hmmm..... " Kai pretended not to understand. But it was impossible to get out of this so easily.
"Uh uh uh uh..."
"No uh-uh. Tell it like a man." Kevin said and pushed Kai back and started tickling him with Jack. Kai was tortured on the couch, dying laughing.
" Give up! Hahahaha..... I give up! I'll tell you! Just let me go!!! " They let Kai go with Kai's plea.
"I missed this." Kai and the others had often done this in the past, but usually, the victim was Jack or Kevin. Kai was usually the one who set the trap.
"I miss it too, but we don't live in a normal world anymore. Your eyes are red!!! How can we be normal!? "Kevin complained.
"It's not up to me. Did I make my eyes red, like I love it!" said Kai. He tried to turn it around and make them forget, but Jack still remembered everything and looked at Kai with a serious look.
"Okay okay, he's our new neighbor like I said. And we go to the same school. Maybe we're in the same class. Is that it? Now we have to go out and find a friend." said Kai and got up again, but this time Jack held him down.
"What now?"
"Did you think we were just going to go off like this? Maybe you can survive something big. You can heal yourself when you're hurt, and you have the strength to survive anger, but-"
"Except I can't control them."
"Anyway, you'll live anyway, but we can't go weak like this, so Jack got body armor from his dad. Let's at least stay strong, right?"
How absurd. How could a 14-year-old kid convince his father to give him body armor?
Listening to Jack's words, Kai realized something else. So far he had been left alone with his problems but why were Jack and Kevin getting into this big problem with him? He had no right to put them in this danger.
"Yes, you could die, that's why I'm asking you, are you sure you want to get involved in this?"
"Don't worry, we've made these decisions thoughtfully. I have nothing left to lose in this. All I have is my father and you. I am coming to protect you and my father. Since my father is a cop, he might meet the culprit and die. Or you may meet him and die. I want some action in my life," Jack said. Kai could understand how he felt. A long time ago Jack's mother had been in a freak accident and died, but the person who hit her had never been found.
"My parents always wanted me to be better than other people, to have a good job and a house and a car, but I don't want that. I want something to die for. I want to find love. I found friends like you at school and I thought you were my non-existent brothers, but I haven't found the girl I love. I guess I'm not that muscular. But maybe on this adventure, I can find someone for me."
Kevin was very different in his reasoning. He could see others and he wanted someone he could love to be happy. But Kai knew that was just an excuse. Just like Jack, he didn't want anything to happen to Kai, so he came to him.
"Okay, but there's one condition. If one of us gets left behind, we will come back for him no matter what," Kai said. It wasn't a promise for them. It was for himself. He had to go back and protect his friends no matter what.
"Okay."
"Okay."
When Kai heard them both nod in agreement, he breathed a sigh of relief and hugged them. How could he be relaxed, even if he looked relaxed? He didn't want to lose his friends. Fear began to take over his body once more as fear built in his body.
Emma Foster 1 hour ago
An hour had passed since Emma had met Kai. But Emma's mind was still on him.
She sat on the couch. She was tired. That's when she started to think. She remembered seeing Kai somewhere, but where? That was the question she didn't know. She was awakened by her mother's voice.
"Come on, stop thinking about the boy so much. Go look at your new school. And if you ask that handsome boy for help, he will come too, don't worry, so you will see each other again." Emma felt her face turning like a tomato as she heard her mother speak. But she didn't deny anything.
"Okay, but mom, that boy must have a girlfriend. Don't get your hopes up."
Emma had seen too many of these situations. There was no reason why a sociable, polite, and handsome young man should not have a girlfriend.
"I'll see you later," Emma said and left. It would be good if she saw the school. I guess she could ask Kai for help and he wouldn't refuse. Just as a friend.
She walked straight to the house that Kai had pointed out to her when they met. When he got home, he knocked on the door. The girl who opened the door was almost the same height as Emma, a few centimeters taller than Emma. She had blonde hair like Kai's. She was beautiful with brown eyes, but the moment she saw her, a sadness came over her.
"'Yes?" she said.
"I'm looking for Kai and I think you're his girlfriend," Emma said. What she was asking was so simple and ridiculous. Even if he was her boyfriend, why was he in her house at 14? To be honest, Emma was too caught up in what she was thinking on the road, and seeing Lily's good looks, she had blurted it out. Emma was startled when the girl gave a sudden laugh.
"A boyfriend?! Hahahahahaha very funny! I think you misunderstood a bit. He's my brother. So you don't need to be scared."
Emma's face was red with embarrassment. But inside she was happy. But she didn't even know why she was happy. She had only just met Kai. It made her even more embarrassed to be so easily attracted to him just because he was handsome. She couldn't understand why she was doing all this.
"No, it's not that... well... Where's Kai?"
"He's not here. He had an emergency so he left early this morning. Do you want to come in?"
"Sure."
She couldn't quite finish the sentence. At that moment a sudden headache appeared in Emma's mind. She knew how she remembered him. Everything matched. The smile on her face froze. Her eyes widened and she took a step back.
"I'm sorry!" She replied with a sudden shock. I just remembered that I have something I have to do right away, so I'd better go now. "
Lily was suspicious but said nothing. As Lily went back inside after meeting this funny girl, Emma's steps were very fast. She knew him. She had seen him before. But she must not have met him.
How could she dream about a person she had never met?
