I'm still not sure what Pattrick was talking about. What did he mean by she chose me? Well why do I care? He's such an arrogant weirdo. I wonder how people even like him! May be just for his looks!
Geez! Give me a break!
I see Charlie approaching me. He takes a seat infront of me facing me. "Are you not done yet?", he asks, opening the packet he just bought from canteen.
Oh! Hamburgers.
"No, not yet. That weirdo kept me here with this damn assignments just to take his revenge on me for the way I behaved in the morning. I'm sure", I say, taking a bite from my hamburger.
Tasty!
Charlie extends his hand and take the sheets in his hands. He reads it aloud. "I misbehaved with my student teacher. I misbehaved with my stu...". He studs his hand on the table. "What the hell is that even?" What? Does he think that we are in some kind of elementary school or something? Such a jerk!"
"Yo Charlie. Chill. Just don't pay any head to him", I say, patting on his shoulder.
He surely seems to be angry. He would've beaten the hell out of that student teacher by now.
"And what does he even mean by 'student teacher'?" Charlie asks.
"Oh that. That weirdo think of himself as a young man. As he is studying still. In medical, last year. And joined here as a teacher. So he referred himself as student teacher. That's what he said".
Charlie breaks out in a laugh. "Oh! What a dumb jerk! Seriously! Now we need to address him as student teacher? He must be out of his mind!". Charlie heads towards the classroom door. " I gotta go, dude. I have to meet my girlfriend".
"Say hi to Patricia on my behalf", I say waving him goodbye.
He nods.
Whenever someone asks him about Patricia, he always say 'my girlfriend' instead of her name just. When I asked him about that he said he likes to call out her like that. He likes to say the 'my girlfriend' as that would be unique. Well of course it is. Who even does that every time?
Someone's knocking on the door. I looked to my right side to see who is it.
Oh! Mr. Arrogant weirdo.
I glance up at him and give a big smile. He walks and stands infront of my table. He takes the assignment sheets on his hand.
"Hmm. Good. You wrote that 500 times. I was thinking whether you can do past 300. Tough guy, huh? No wonder she chose you", he laughs.
There he goes with 'she' again.
"What do you mean by she?"
"Are you trying to play dumb with me?". He laughs again. This time louder.
That's annoying.
He stares at me for a while. He places his hand on my shoulder and comes closer.
"Stay away from my Elora", he says as the laugh on his face suddenly turned into an angry one.
How does he know Elora?
Is he threatening me?
Omg I'm scared.
Funny.
Give me a break! You jerk!
And what does he mean by 'my Elora'?
Oh please. Back off!
I stand straight. I directly look into his eyes. I hold his hand by wrist and remove it from my shoulder. "Well well. How come she is 'your Elora'? Damn dude! You're funny. Oh sorry! Damn student teacher", I laugh.
I'm enjoying this quite much.
I love the way he's getting pissed.
"I'll show you what's funny", he says, stepping backward.
What is he trying to do?
If he's a vampire then he has can do something too.
But I'm unaware of that.
Before I could even come up with an idea, he disappears.
Wait!
He didn't disappear.
I did.
But how?
I look around. I see green nature, trees, animals, waterfalls and... Elora!??
I start to walk towards her. I'm almost there. But suddenly I bump into something. It seems like someone's standing infront of me. But I can't see anyone. I close my eyes. I know these are just some illusions and nothing else.
Illusions!!
Yes! I know what power he has. It's creating illusions. He's just confusing me by creating illusions.
What does he even think of me?
I can feel his hand. I hold his hand and twist it behind his back. I can see him now. All those are gone now. I'm in my classroon again. He rather looks confused.
"How? How did you even figure out that? And how did it stop? How can you not get hypnotised?" He asks with a pity face.
"Did you say hypnotise?" I ask, releasing his hands.
"Yes. I can create illusions. And hypnotise people to believe in what they see or whatever I want them to see. No one can escape my illusions. How did you even figure that out?"
I don't know what the hell is he talking about. I have put myself in this mess. Everyday I'm having some adventure or something and meeting peculiar persons. And now what? Even I have some kind of powers.
"I don't know anything. Dude, I'm just a normal guy. Your world amd my world are different. And about Elora. I love her. She does too. So I don't want any hindrance in our way. It's better if you just stay out of my way. As I'm never leaving her", I assure him.
He looks somehow terrified. And somehow its making me feel at ease that he's terrified because of me. I hope at least he won't come in between Elora and me now.
Wait! I have a question.
"How do you know Elora?" I ask him.
"She's my childhood friend. And I like her. You know I'm just an ordinary vampire with some powers whereas she's a vampire with high powers. Who's goingtobe a queen soon", he grins.
"What do you mean by she has high powers? What kind of power?"
She never told me about any kinds of power. She never did anything with her powers too. What is she hiding from me?
Am I not worth trusting?
Pattrick turned around and stop by the door. "Well Aldrich, she indeed knew what you have. Maybe she wanted to play safe who knows. Well welcome to our world".
