"Did you find who ordered the attack on her" Said Alex. Hmmm what is happening?
"Yes, young master" said a man addressing to me, I have heard this voice, he was in the room before but why was he calling me 'young master' and even though I heard Alex speaking where is he standing. What is going on?
"Who was it?" Alex asked
"It was the Aisha Group" The man once again said addressing to me, why was he looking at me and not at Alex.
This dream is just too weird.
"That group of fox, but why would they attack her she is a human and they signed the treaty with us not to attack humans." Alex said. 'Humans' why was he talking like that I was human and he was not? He is human isn't he?
"And from further investigation it was found that someone from that group will soon be transferring to your school , young master " said the man , is this some kind of conspiracy thing .Anyway this dream is seeming so realistic , and I still can't seem to find out Alex .
"There's something else also, young master , if you want to know that is " said the man again directing towards me , what was with this man every time pointing towards me yet addressing to Alex, does he think I am Alex but I can hear Alex's voice where is that coming from. This is so confusing.
"What is it, tell me straightly Stephen" Alex asked, so this man's name was Stephen
"It is …… rumored that " Stephen said slowly taking pause between
"Tell me quickly, I don't have time, I got to school." Alex thundered Stephens looked scared for a second.
"Sorry, young master , It is rumored , no in fact we have confirmed that she is the RARE KIND " Stephens said emphasizing on the words' rare kind' , what is this rare kind thing now , whatever it was Alex panicked
"This cannot be true, Kate cannot be the Rare Kind " Alex said panicked , wait they are talking about me being the rare kind , what the hell is this dream , how can I just start inventing stuff like the rare kind , my mind must be playing games on me .
"It is true , sir , the Aisha group found out first and they attacked her to obtain her , but grandfather have been notified about-" Suddenly the voice stopped and the dream kind of blacked of , I opened my eyes and found myself back in my room . Mom hovering me
"Kate, do you want to go to school today?" she asked
"Yeah, yeah I alright, I will definitely go to school." I answered. She backed up, said she had no problem with me going and went out to do her daily chores. I sat there calming my mind , what the hell was that dream , I made two goals one to talk to Alex find the answers from him and the second to figure this dream out , maybe talk about it with Bess or Alex.
Anyway, I got ready for the school and hurried to the school.
When I reached around the door, I saw Alex reading a novel, sitting in his usual place.
The light was reflecting on his face, which was coming from window, it was illuminating his face in a way that I never thought it was possible. I wanted to capture that moment in a camera and look at it forever. Before I could say anything he noticed and saw me , right now I was staring at him , strangely he was staring at me like I was some enrapturing thing , I must be imagining . I shook my head and moved forward.
"Hey are you alright now, not feeling anemic are you?" Alex asked jokingly , all the enrapture I was feeling earlier vanished now all that left was a determination to find out what was going on with Alex
"Yeah, yeah I am alright now, hey Alex?" I said
"What Kate, you seem kind of nervous." Alex asked closing his book, boy he is good at picking subtle signs.
"No, it's nothing like that; I just wanted to talk to you." I said backing a little, he stood up now
"What is it Kate and you can talk to me about whatever you want , don't be afraid okay" He said politely , why was he being this polite to me , what the hell does he think happened to me in just one night , God! He is being so paranoid right now.
"Nothing much Alex , why are panicking this much , I just wanted to catch up to you , you know it feels like ages since we caught up and we were going to catch up yesterday when suddenly I became anemic , sorry for that by the way " I said putting my bandaged hand on Alex's arm . He breathed in relief
"Sorry, it's nothing, just that " He paused
"Just what Alex" I asked innocently concerned for my best friend, instead I wanted him to screw up here and reveal things by chance, but Alex was too clever for that, I know he won't reveal things easily.
This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.
"I watched this serial and ...and it showed how a friend who lost consciousness suddenly and doctor first diagnosed that it was due to lack of iron in the body but later it was found that the guy had a cancer , so it is close to what happened with you so I was just concerned . You know, if you had cancer I would .........I can't even imagine how could I........................." He suddenly became loss at words, it was as if he couldn't even imagine a life without me, that it would be too painful for him. I knew that in fact, it was all made up , but I had to act as if what he was telling was real.
"Don't I don't have cancer , so don't imagine a world without me , I am your best friend and you won't be able to get rid of me that easily " I said , I saw something break in Alex , to distract him I said
"So, meet me at the gate after school and from there we will go for a cup of coffee , okay " I asked for conformation, he nodded
"But what did-" I cut him off
" Not now Bess is coming " He looked to the door Bess just entered . She looked at us and waived
" Did you know Bess just shot down another guy yesterday" I said loudly enough that Bess could hear . She came towards us smiling and I asked
"When are you going to find a boyfriend , even I am getting heartbroken by all the boys you are rejecting " She put on a thinking expression
"Hmmmm, what to do about it , If the boys stop confessing to me , I may stop rejecting them ." She said with a bright smile , I chuckled as well .
"Talk about an arrogant girl , come on there must be someone you like." I asked
"Sorry , but I don't have one " She shrugged
" Then what about Alex here "I said totally not meaning it , Alex also looked kind of sad.
"Sorry , no offence but NO" She said emphasizing on No
"Non taken" Alex answered
"Than what about Cain "I asked
"The one who sits in front in our tuition class?" She asked
"Yes "I replied
"Why are you so keen on her finding her a boyfriend" Alex asked
"Yeah, Kate why?" Bess also asked , I glared at Alex
"Because , I want you to find happiness , I just want to see my best friend to be happy , why is that so bad ?" I confessed , Bess actually looked touched , well after all she had helped me so much how could I not want happiness for her .She hugged me
"That's so sweet , you know what you are sweet , I love you , okay " she said kissing me on my cheek
"I love you too Bess " I said
"Hey what about me no one likes me, I finally know your real feelings, I am just an outsider aren't I , I will just silently go "Alex said sulking and started to walk away . Me and Bess together held him back.
"You are not unliked Alex , we both like you that's why I am not only concerned about Bess , I am also concerned about you , I think I am more concerned about you then her . 24/7 , I am concerned about you 24/7 , both of you. You two are the most special people in the world for me. So don't even think for a second that you are not needed or you are just in the way" I said looking both at Alex and Bess , for a second there my eyes locked with Alex and I suddenly became breathless. Seriously, my heart can't take this any longer. I looked at Bess, touched by my words she had tears in her eyes now. Good! Now I made her cry .
"What about you?"She suddenly asked
"What? " I asked
"Enough about us when are you getting a boyfriend?" She asked , Shit , now what should I say , that I have already someone I like but , what if Alex takes that in the wrong way , I glanced at Alex, he was getting anxious . What was he getting anxious for?
"I already have someone I like " I confessed
"What!?" Both of them said in unison
"Yes , yes, I have someone I like why is it that much of a shock I am a high school girl, you know right? " I asked Alex actually looked a little hurt , but Bess was more of anxious , was she thinking about the incident , I will never get to know after all I can't talk about it in front of Alex.
They both put on a sad expression and said to each other
"Our little girl has finally grown up and here I always worried about her" Said Bess sniffling
"We both be so lonely without her won't we" said Alex sniffling hugged Bess
"Yes we both will be lonely , at last she will be finally be getting a boyfriend " Bess said
"Wait a minute I never said that I was going to confess "I interrupted there little drama
"What , why not , you like the guy don't you so why not , by the way who is this guy ?" Bess loaded me with questions . Thankfully, the bell saved me . I breathed in relief when suddenly Bess said " Don't even think for a second that you are off the hook , I will get out the answers I need from you , later "She gave me a warning and we both went to our seat . Alex always sat alone , just in front of me and Bess . I didn't ever understand why though.
When the between the class break came , Bess asked me
"Kate are you sure you are ready for this ?" I understand her concern , after what happened to me in the past one might hesitate in taking this kind of step , I didn't want to think about that now , I am over that , I told myself .
"Yes, I am sure Bess thanks for worrying but I think I am pass that " I finally answered .She smiled brightly .
"Its okay as long as you are sure and ready." She said any further conversation was impossible as the teacher entered .
