Is it him?

"Bye, mom!"I said and fastened my seatbelt. I looked at my dad and he starts the engine of our car. Mom wave for us and I waved back till she was out of sight.

"How's your wound?" dad asked while driving.

"You don't have to worry dad. It's okay now."I answered while rubbing it under my long sleeves from my uniform. He smiled.

"Promise me, that you'll be careful next time, okay?"

"Yes dad" I smiled.

We are now in my school, I went outside of our car and say goodbye to my dad. He always telling me to be careful since that day...

When my dad is now out of sight, I saw a sad Brian looking down, walking inside the campus. I walk near her and tapped her back. She looked back with a shock.

"OMG! IRE!? HOW ARE YOU?"

"We talk yesterday and I said I'm fine, right?"

"Yes, but... I felt guilty. If we just came home early, maybe that will never happen." said Brian. I tapped her shoulder and she simply looked at me.

"I really enjoyed yesterday, let's do it sometime.." I said then she smiled. We went inside the cafeteria because it's really too early to go into the classroom. Brian contacted Shakira to come here to Cafeteria, then after a minute Shakira came and sat down next to Brian.

"I'm terribly sorry guys, I didn't come."

"Don't be Shakira, it's okay, how are you, are you okay now?" asked Brian and I looked at her worriedly.

"Thanks for worrying guys, but I'm fine now" she replied with a smile.

"But I heard both of you got in an accident, how are you?" she added and looked at the both of us.

"How did you know?"I asked her.

"My Auntie went there to take a shortcut because her house is just near at the alley, but she saw some goons and notice two girls and a man fighting to those men and take a picture of it and showed me" she replied and showed us the picture of us, Brian in my back, Me in front of her and the mysterious guy.

"We're fine.."

"Brian's right. We both fine, I just have a scratch." I added. Gladly our maroon uniform inside the vest has long sleeves so that my wound won't be noticeable. Add the maroon vest with long sleeves too. Then Brian ordered some cake and coffee.

"Guys, what cake do you want?"

"Oooh! I take a strawberry cake and frappuccino" said Shakira.

"Dark Chocolate cake and cappuccino for me, "I said.

Brian called the waiter and she told him our order. Brian chose Caramel cake and Cappuccino also. She's the one who introduced to me the Cappuccino, and it really tastes good.

After our talk and minutes passed our order has arrived. We only have 25 minutes left before our class started.

"Do you mean that man helped both of you?" asked Shakira.

"Yes! And I didn't get his number" joked Brian.

"Ooohhh, Sapphire did you see the man's face?"

"I didn't, Shakira. It's so dark that time, all I can remember is his lips." I replied, why always lips? We became silent. Shakira and Brian looked at each other and I just looked at my empty plate, I look outside the glass wall and look at the crowded canteen not far from here and I saw a man looks familiar who went there and some guys move aside to not block the man's way, I just continue eating my cake, maybe I'm hallucinating and start thinking that every man I see is him. We finished drinking our coffee and we immediately went inside our room.

Right in time, our teacher Mr. Piasco came and discuss our last topic. I saw Zire wasn't here. He's absent?

"By the way where's Zire?" asked Mr. Piasco when he saw the vacant seat.

"We don't know Mr. Piasco" replied Shakira.

"Hmm, then whe-"

"Are you looking for me?" all of us look at the man standing in front of the door who plunges the door opened.

"You're late Zire.."

"Geez, so what? I've got some fight with someone that's why I'm late.." he explained and walked towards his seat.

Got fight with someone?

"I'll let you past this time Mr. Zire, but not in next time.." angered Mr. Piasco. He just sat down like he didn't hear a thing. Mr. Piasco continued his discussion. I just looked at Zire who's tapping his phone and placing his black earphones on his ears. He got some fight, is it possible that it's him? I can't say but I took a glance at his eyes, and I think they were blue but I don't know, I'm not sure. He looked at me, maybe he senses someone's staring at him.

"What?" he asked irritated, his eyes were blue too, but I think it's not him because their voice is not the same. I just looked at him with no emotions then looked back at Mr. Piasco and focused on our discussion...

{Zire's POV}

I sat down in my seat. I know Mr. Piasco said something but I didn't give any attention to it. I'm done hearing some lectures from my lovely evil little sister Zyna. I picked up my phone placed it under the desk and play some kind of music, I plugged my earphones on my phone and when I'm going to place it in my ear I sense someone is staring at me. I looked at my side where Sapphire is.

I knew it. She's the one who's staring at me... She's too over in my face...

"What?"I asked, irritated. Is she staring at my eyes?! She remained like that for a few seconds then she gave her attention to the discussion of Mr. Piasco.

What the hell is this girl!? She really creeps me out!!

{Back to Sapphire's POV}

"Lunch break!!" yelled Shakira. While stretching her arms.

"Why are you so happy?"I asked, curiously.

"Because, it's free time, and sigh... I can't believe tomorrow we have a quiz in Mr. Piasco" said Shakira in her sad face. I just nodded while looking at her.

"Tss, so what if we have a quiz tomorrow? And we always had our free time every end of our subjects" said Zire coldly while packing his things without looking at us.

"So? It's just 15 minutes break after the subject. But at lunchtime, we have a 1-hour break! And about the quiz, it's just a second day of school!!" explained Shakira.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever.," said Zire and he was going out again but Brian block the door.

"What the fuck!?"

"Don't you say bad words to me!" said Brian while pointing her index finger to Zire.

"What now!?" he yelled. Brian made a small giggle and make an evil smile...

"You're coming with us!" cheerfully said, Brian.

"WHAT!? HIM!? ARE YOU SURE!?" nervously asked Shakira, me who never feel shocked made a small what..? ( –__– )

"You see, I notice, Zire doesn't have any friends, and I know you're a good guy," said Brian while placing her hands around Zire.

"...a little cranky sometimes.." whispered Brian but we can still hear it.

"I can hear you! " shout Zire. And he removes the arm of Brian around his shoulder.

"And who said I don't have any friends? Are you stalking me?!"

"Me! Did you not hear it? And I'm not stalking you, I just accidentally saw you that's all"

"Tss! Get away from me.." said Zire and he was heading out when Brian throws her bag to Zire's back. That made me stand up and Shakira made a shocked face.

"What the—!?"

"No one ever dared to ignore me like that you—"

"Brian stopped!" I yelled when this situation is in out of hand. Cause Brian is now on top of Zire sitting on his stomach and placed her hands around Zire's neck.

If I didn't stop her I'm sure she can kill him.

"Let him go, Brian. If he doesn't want to join us then it's okay.." I said to calm her. Brian let go of Zire and move aside then stand up and picked up her bag. Zire stand up and picked his bag beside him, he cleaned his uniform and looked at Brian. His ears are a little bit red.

"You monkey!" said Zire and walk away embarrassed.

"Why did you do that, Brian?" asked Shakira.

"I just want Ire and that man be friends. I don't want someone else to bully her again! Or have an enemy.." said Brian.

"Bullied again? What?" confused Shakira.

"I'll tell you everything later.,"I said to her.

We decided to go to our places every lunch break on the rooftop. I said I'll be late cause I need to buy some drinks for us. Then they go first and I went to the vending machine 15 meters away from my class.

I placed my coins in the coin slot and chose three water bottles when I saw a man wearing a black jacket same as the jacket of the Man last night but there's no red dragon in it, but only the letter R on his left chest, who walked past me, but he's not wearing a cap, if I approach him maybe I might see his face. And I was right that he's studying here too. I approach him, and forget about the water, then grabbed his arm.

"Excuse me?" I said. He moved his head and looked at me...

"Yes?"
