Chapter 9 - Chapter Nine

Yume's pov

I felt vibrating from my phone, that's made me woke up, and I looked at it. almost the messages are from arth but I'm just ignoring it. So I threw my phone behind my back.

I want to sleep more, so I continued and closed my eyes.

._-*-_.

I woke up once again and it's 7pm. So I walked down to the kitchen and look for  something to eat. Pancake? I opened the fridge then I saw fruit salad, found yah! I took it to the dining room, while watching anime, my fave! "kimetsu no yaiba".

I forgot something so I went back to my room, and took my phone. All messages are from arth, ignoring them again. More scrolling then there's a message from aimie, "yume-chan! I'm very happy today, this was my best day ever. Mika and I are dating!, Help me celebrate, please yume-chan?".

I replied, "oh, yeah, congratulations for both of you, guys! But sorry, I can't go with you, see you on Monday, it will be fun after school, okay?".

"Okay, sure, see you then, good night~", she answered back.

"Good night, too...", I replied. I sighed and looked at the chandelier.

I feel so down, I just don't get it but maybe I'm just jealous. 'just ignore it', I'm just talking to myself then my phone rang. And I answered the call, "hey! What is it, king?", I'm surprised he called, "I'm just asking, I noticed you didn't use your ability to stop the incident awhile back. Was there something wrong?".

Oh, I almost forgot about that thing, "uhm, yeah, I remember. That was strange, I can't activate it that time. It faded, maybe I'm just tired that day 'cause I can't sleep that night before that.", I stated.

"Oh, okay... Well, better get rest, bye!", He hunged up.

Try continuing my food while watching TV. Tomorrow will be Saturday, maybe I should train myself.

._-*-_.

Monday morning and school days rolling again, upon entering at the school's gate "o-ha-you, yume-chan!", Aimie running towards me. "Yowh!", I answered back.

Mika come in too, "mika-chan, good morning!", She smiled and Mika smiled, "good morning, baby!". Kinda sweet?

"Hey, guys! what's your plan for Christmas break?", Aimie asked.

"Uhm, well, I dunno yet.", I said.

"How 'bout in my place? Isn't that great?", King (Enrique sarmiento, son of the principal of the school)

"That's nice, though-", third (thirdy Keith montano, former coe of a bank company)

Christmas? I never celebrated Christmas before. Even my big brother never visited me since I lived alone. Speaking of which, where was he been? I do really miss him much.

._-*-_.

I'm on my headphones, it's lunch break so I still have 30mins. I'm all alone leaning on the railings of the rooftop.

"Hey, there!", It's arth and sat besides me.

Silence occurs.

I'm just looking at the sky, and weather's so cold. Christmas will coming soon.

Arth wrapped me with his jacket, "you're trembling, are you okay?", He asked but I just said, "thanks. I'm fine.", His eyes are so lonely.  I knew him since we were kids.

"Is there something bothering you?", I asked.

"Uhm, n-nothing, just thinking of something-", he giggled a bit.

Maybe they have a little argument between these two. I've never seen Malory after that day.

"Hey, where's Malory?", I just asked.

"She's with her acting club, so busy for her projects, movies maybe.", He chuckled. "Did she said it to you? She was so excited to tell it to you about it-".

Lemme check my phone, oh no! I'm dead! He's right. She sent me a message.

Arth stood up, "we have to go back-", he offered his hand. I held his hand then pulled me up, "okay.".
