The school day went by a lot slower than normal. That happens when you’re looking forward to something. The student’s jackets are buttoned up, hoping to combat the emerging cold weather. Detention was as boisterous as the day before. The girls are wearing their new winter uniforms. Blue jackets like the males with a white ribbon on their chest. Llida who would always wear nothing but his white shirt is forced to wear his jacket. Kai was happy. He had never had this many friends. With the exclusion of Llida. Kai had always been kept in his house apart from going to school 5 times a day. He wasn’t allowed to do any other activities other than study and study so he could get rich and benefit his father, a drunk. His only escape was the comic books he would buy on his way home and read them under a small bridge shade away from the sun. Those were the only people he could relate to, the only people he knew. Now he’s surrounded by strong, cool guys and beautiful women. Speaking of beautiful women, Masha’s hair seems to be different, her blue ribbon’s holding her long white pigtails as strands of her hair cover her eyes as she sleeps. Rosa, Roman, and Llida argue about a card game with somewhat confusing rules. She might be tricking them since she came up with the rules. Ringing louder than normal, the bell wakes Masha, who was greeted by Kai staring at her. Embarrassed by her drooling mouth. Her pale white skin turns tomato red as she punches Kai into oblivion and grabs Rosa.
“We’re going to go get ready for the party. You guys are going shopping right?” Covering her mouth and avoiding eye contact, Masha grips Rosa’s arm.
“Yeah, we should get going. I want to get this over with so I can sit next to Rosa’s cozy Fireplace,”. Roman constantly cleans his glasses as they get foggy every time he takes a breath.
“Wait, she has a fireplace? You sure are living quite the life”, Kai holds his head, finishing that sentence was a challenge as he tries to regain his balance.
“We’ll see you guys there, later”, She’s so adorable in her oversized jacket.
The boy’s all brought their change of clothes with them except for Llida. Stopping by his place on the way to the mall felt like a tense action movie. Llida’s house was swarming with men wearing black suits and sunglasses. Some even had weapons. Llida was the son of a gang family, Kai was oblivious. As they sit in the main hall surrounded by gold and silver decorations, the tension causes Kai to tremble. Or is it the cold? Even the cup of tea they were offered seemed luxurious, yet the butler’s glare was menacing. On his hip holstered what seemed like a dagger with a silver blade and a rose gold hilt.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
“That’s a nice sword you got there,”, Kai attempts to spark conversation.
“Yes, though this is the closest you’ll ever see something like this”
“Guy’s, they're with me. Let up a little”, Llida eases the tension in the room as the men say “Yes Boss” In unison.
“Clover, show them out. I have something to take care of before I leave”, Llida tells his butler as he finishes to zip up a yellow jacket and sporting a black scarf and black pants.
Roman stands flashing his Brown leather trench coat.
“I really enjoyed the tea Oldtimer. You should definitely look into starting a tea shop or something”
“Tell Llida we’ll be at the mall. Let's go Kai”, Roman definitely increased the tension. The hall became so hot suddenly.
Walking down the hallway Roman has a smirk, he’s proud of himself. Kai noticed he hoped he’d never have this conversation.
“Roman.”, They both stop in the halls with expensive paintings compared to that of the dorm.
“Why did you steal the Dagger?”, Roman’s side-eyed grin instilled fear in Kai. Roma turns to him, pulling the dagger from his shirt pocket.
“I thought it was cool, so I took it. Simple as that”
“Is that how you got all those expensive clothes in your closet? By stealing?”, Kai’s feet shake violently. The cold doesn’t help his situation.
“I knew you two were suspicious the moment the Master let you enter our property,”, Clover, the butler stands at the opposite end of the hallway.
“You stole the dagger when you got up from your seat, correct? Impressive. But for that reason. I cannot allow you to set foot outside these doors.”
