Next day, Ae Rin woke up as usual. She seemed very cheerful.
She hummed along the way to her room where Kyou was sleeping.
"Hey, sleepy head! I need to take my clothes for bathing! Open the door!" She banged on the door several times.
"Yeah...wait..." Kyou said from the other side of the door.
*Creeaakk*
The door slowly opened to show Kyou standing near the door with his sleepy eyes.
"Do you usually wake up this early?" He frowned, his voice displaying pure irritation.
"That's not something you should be concerned about. I mean....look at the time. It's clearly shown '6:34 am'. Don't you want to go to school?!" She said as she barged inside the room without invitation and opened her closet filled with different dresses ranging from different colours to different styles.
Her eyes wandered around in the closet untill she spotted her school uniform neatly kept inside.
She took it out and turned around, "Woah!! What?!"
She was surprised to see Kyou closely ' inspecting ' her closet.
"Just how rich are you? You have ALL sorts of expensive dresses! And yesterday as well, I was wondering how beautiful your room is! I mean, it's not something everyone has. " He exclaimed in shock.
She stared at him blankly for a moment and then changed the topic, "Thank you for the compliment! And...I m going to get late if we keep talking! I m gonna go have a nice bath first."
"I just remembered....I don't have my uniform or my things!! I can't go to my house as well. What will I do now?" He said anxiously while walking back and forth restlessly.
Ae Rin smirked, " Why do you have to worry when you have me around? Let me remind you of my specialities!"
She leaned against the wall and snapped her fingers.
*Thud!*
Out of thin air, a bag filled with books, a pair of shoes with socks and uniform fell on the ground.
"Those are my things! You teleported them here, didn't you? I guess you can come in handy sometimes..." He nodded slowly.
She smiled with dignity and left the room for taking bath.
She wore her uniform and tied her hair into a neat high ponytail and applied lip balm to soften her lips.
She came out of the room and knocked at Kyou's door to check whether he's ready, since they agreed to go together.
"I m coming!" He opened the door hurriedly and they were good to go.
When they were out of the house, Ae Rin noticed a man approaching them. He looked like a postman wearing a red cap.
"Ma'am, a letter has arrived for you. Please sign over here." He gestured to the paper he held out to her.
"A letter..?" She thought to herself as she signed the paper.
The entire time, he was avoiding her gaze and seemed to be anxious or restless for some reason.
Ae Rin opened the letter on the spot to check who might have sent it but there was nothing written on the cover of the letter.
Kyou found it suspicious and asked him, "Excuse me. Can you say who sent this letter?"
He refused to look at him and kept his head lowered. When asked, he shook his head in reply and said, "I-I have to go....." and ran away.
"Well, that was weird." Ae Rin narrowed her eyes in suspicion.
She decided to let it go and take a look at the letter.
The letter was sealed inside with a matte black covering with no name of the sender.
She tore the covering and opened the letter.
"17th of October, 2019.
I KNOW YOUR EVERY MOVE :)" was written in simple handwriting.
They both froze in shock after reading it and their face turned pale in fear.
"17th of October?! That's day after tomorrow! What does that mean?! Is this message from the organisation?" Kyou said, he was confused as well as shaken.
"This is definitely their doing.
Wait, that postman! He could be one of them!" She said abruptly as she turned to look around for him but found no trace.
"17th of October....." she continued, "I am sure...I am sure... something terrible will take place..."
