Chapter 1 - The Exception

Wellington, New Zealand, 2018. A black-haired young boy named Nash Meridian read a book in a local library.

"Well, what should I do after this? It's still 5 p.m." said Nash. Then after he put the book that he read back to its place, he moved out of the library and went home. He lived in his house by himself. His parents passed away when he was at five in an accident at another country then after the accident he was raised by his grandpa, his only relative. And after turned to sixteen, his grandpa passed away.

"Nash! Where have you been? I've been looking for you this whole time!" Via shouted to Nash. She was his neighbor and his old friend, having the same age and study at the same school make them so close. Some even think they were dating. She had long brown hair. She was so beautiful and every man wants to date her but because she had Nash beside her, they didn't seem to want to make a move. Well, Nash himself is a very attractive person, if someone dared to make a move to date Via it means he must be more attractive than Nash.

Nash answered calmly, "Why are you looking for me? I've been to the library to read some books." Then Via grabbed Nash's hand and they walked towards Via's house. Via's house was located right beside Nash own house. After they entered Via's house, they sat on the sofa in Via's living room. Via's mom knew Nash from he was just a baby and of course, knew what his favorite drinks and made a glass of melon juice for both of them.

"What's wrong Via?" Nash asked while he checked his smartphone.

Via touched Nash's face and made him look at her face, "I feel something weird happen to me."

"You pregnant?" Nash replied to Via randomly. Via's face looked angered by his reply. "Don't make a joke right now Nash!"

"hahaha, what's wrong Via? Just take it to the point." A laugh could be seen in Nash' face. "I can feel something.. I don't know what it is, but it feels warm. Just like right now I feel something warm coming from you." Via let go of Nash' face.

"You are not in love with me and feel warm beside me right?" Nash suspected at Via's strange behavior.

"Of course not! I don't know what it is. I feel it even when I play with my cat. I think it is an aura." A confused expression could be seen on Via's face.

Nash touched Via's forehead, ensure that his friend was not sick. "No, I'm not sick, Nash." Via responded.

"Well, just forget it already, I think it is not a big problem." Said Nash

Via's mom put the glasses on the table. "Have a drink Via, Nash."

"Thanks, mom." Via responded. "Thank you, Mrs. Sanders." Said Nash.

They were having a small talk and after that Nash went home.

"Hmph, my homework is done, maybe I can call it a day." Nash prepared himself to go to sleep but something weird happen.

"Whoa, what was that?" A warm feeling suddenly appears.

"Not my AC, and right now isn't summer." Puzzled Nash tried to chat Via.

Nash: Hey, do you feel something just now?

Via: Yes, a warm feeling, do you feel it too?

Nash: Yes, about a minute and then gone.

Via: IKR!!

Nash: Maybe tomorrow we can discuss it.

Via: Alright, it's already night right now.

After that Nash went to his bed and sleep.

Today they went to school together on foot. Their school wasn't far away.

"Via, what was the thing yesterday?" asked Nash. "I told you yesterday, I think it is an aura." Replied Via. Nash seems to not believe in what Via's said but he himself didn't know what it was.

"Well, I still don't believe in what you said. Maybe when next time I feel it more, then I ready to believe in you." Nash said it with a puzzled face. Via responded calmly, "It's up to you, you know. But the sure thing is you must try to feel mine right now because I can feel yours and it feels different than my parents'"

Nash tried to feel Via's aura just like what she suggested. He concentrated a lot to feel something and after a minute or so he actually felt it. He seems excited. "Whoaa I feel it! Maybe I must try it when in class!"

"Yea try it and tell me when you feel mine is different from the others. I have a feeling that mine and yours are rather unique. The warm you have is more intense than anyone else." And they walked to school.

Their school is a big one. Best school in the area. "Hey, Nash! Via!" it was Bagas, their close friend. He was at the same school with them since kindergarten. Bagas is a black-haired boy with a shortcut hair, almost bald, which is his style. Nash murmured to Via "Do we need to tell him?" "No, not right now. Just the two of us."

"Hey! Do you guys want to see a movie after school?" Bagas asked Via and Nash. "Of course!" "Why not!" Nash and Via replied at the same time. Then they walked to class together. Yes, they were in the same class, three of them. Just when the class started, Nash tried to feel his classmate aura and indeed he feels they have some kind of warm aura and Via's is a lot tenser than the other. Nash excited to know that Via's prediction was true but when he tries to focus on every one of his classmates, he feels Bagas's was so intense. Just when he felt it, Bagas turned his face towards Nash with a puzzled face and right after it, the teacher came in to start the class.

After the class ended, Bagas walked towards Nash and said "You can feel aura too bro?" looked a bit confused, Nash answered, "Yes! And you also?"

Via hurried to join her friend, "Bagas, Nash, I feel an intense aura just now." With a terrified face, Via looked outside the window. She saw an old man standing in front of the school. When Nash and Bagas wanted to see what happen outside, the old man vanished and both of them didn't see anything outside. Via looked more and more terrified than before because she saw the old man vanished in an instant. "There is nothing outside Via." Said Nash. "Yes, nothing." Bagas also replied. Via looked at them and said, "I see an old man standing in front of our school gate and I felt a very intense aura come from him even more intense than yours and when you both tried to see through the window he vanished in an instant with his aura."

"It doesn't make any sense Via, you are not sick, aren't you?" Bagas said it. Nash doesn't really believe in what Via said but Via never lied to him even once. "Well, just forget it and go to the canteen, I want to eat. Do you guys join me?" Nash tried to calm Via and Bagas. Then they go to the canteen to eat together.

After the school ended, they walked out of school and went to a cinema but when they went outside the school gate, an old man with a tuxedo called them. "Hey you guys, come here."

"Bagas, Nash, that was the old man that I saw earlier." Looked scared, Via grabbed her friend's hand and ran to avoid the old man. She ran at full speed. "Via what are you doing!" Nash questioned Via's strange behavior. "I'm afraid of that old man! Just run for now! We must avoid him!" They ran for about five minutes and when Via felt they already far enough she stopped and took a breath. "I think that old man can't chase us." "Are you insane Via!" Bagas was not an athletic person and his breath sounds so heavy. "I'm sorry Gas, I'm too afraid that time," Via replied. Not long after that old man suddenly appears in front of three of them. How could an old man using tuxedo, a pantofel and right behind them suddenly appeared in front of them? "Hey, don't run away from me, I just want to show you guys something. I know you can feel aura just now. I can explain what it is but don't run away from me like before. I won't do any harm to you." A smile could be seen at the old man's face. He then invited them to have a talk at the nearest restaurant.

In a restaurant

"It is indeed called an aura, a magic aura to be precise. And some people can feel it too. Not too much. We called the exception."
