The sun slowly brightened up the city. Semester leave has ended, and the next semester has begun.
Lisa woke up in the shining morning, stretched her hands above her head, and yawned. She got ready in her school uniform and waited for Xiye on the road while stark left for school without even minding her standing on the roadside.
On the school campus, stark and Kenyan students entered at the same time.
Kenyan asked while locking his bike, "Do you want to play hide and seek with me?"
Stark stopped taking a further step forward and gave an appraised look. He replied, "No!" and moved towards the school building.
Kenyan followed back and pleaded, "Please!" until they sat down on their seats.
"Don't be childish!" Stark furrowed him.
Kenyan shut his mouth in a second and twisted his look aside.
Then, the beauty gang entered the classroom. Larzhy kept looking at Eron's empty seat until she settled in.
Thereafter, Eron came and sat in his seat by putting his schoolbag on another chair that was next to his.
Kenyan stood up and moved silently towards him. He bent closer to Eron's ear and whispered, "Do you want to play hide and seek with me?"
Eron's face turned to him and glared at his foolishness. He refused calmly, "No."
Kenyan moved behind him and massaged Eron's shoulder. He bargained, "Please!"
At the time, Lisa and Xiye came there and sat in their seats, giving Kenyan weird stares.
"Can't!" Eron chided.
Kenyan's finger stopped massaging him and took it back. He walked towards his seat with a swacked shoulder.
"How about this?" Kenyan hinted at his brain when he was about to sit in his seat. He came back and walked closer to Lisa.
He kneeled next to the table, held the table, and asked, "Hey! Guys, do you want to play hide and seek?"
Lisa's and Xiye's attention caught him. Lisa curiously cheered, "Wow, I like to play, but when?"
Xiye shifted her gaze to Lisa. "What about the last periods?"
"Okay!" Kenyan gestured to thump up and went to his seat, releasing satisfied breath out of his nostrils.
The class teacher entered, and she chatted with the students cheerfully about the holidays, so the period passed laughing cheerfully.
A few hours later lunch break bell rang.
"No class for an afternoon," the teacher said before leaving the classroom door. All the students were bouncing with joy.
Kenyan pulled Lisa and Xiye into a rush before they could back up their things properly.
Lisa shook off Kenyan's hands, frowned, and took out a lunchbox from her bag. She bragged, "I have!" Lisa sat in her chair proudly, straightening her face.
Kenyan pressed together his lips, breathed like a cow, and pulled her hands again, "It's not good for your health!"
He pulled her and Xiye with each hand to the canteen and didn't loosen their hands until they reached the canteen. The lunch box was on the table alone.
Stark stood up and passed that lonely lunch box on the table by putting his hands in his pant pocket. So, Eron also went there.
They were sitting together and enjoying the food.
"May we play now?" Kenyan made eye contact with Lisa and put his chicken piece on her.
Stark and Eron's eyes were witnessed at his hand at the same time.
"No!"
"It's so hot now." Lisa gave the chicken back to him.
The Kenyan pursed his lips and ate with disappointment. Then, stark started to eat, but Eron kept looking at Lisa's right hand.
"What are you looking at?" Xiye asked a question while drinking her soup.
"Nothing." Eron moved his gaze away from her. At the time, a boy hit Eron's hand unknowingly. So, Eron's plate slipped on the floor, dancing intractably by splitting the food on the floor.
They are all heads turned to that side quickly.
That boy asked sorry politely when Eron upright his head to see who was. But that boy was wearing a hoodie, which covered up her head, making it hard to see his face.
"Oh my! I'll go and buy another one." Lisa stood up quickly. That boy glanced at Lisa and then lowered his gaze, standing there.
Eron pulled her hands and made her sit in her seat. "It's okay, eat first!" he said.
Stark was confused, looking at eron's hand as soon as he held her.
"It's okay," Eron stood up, and that boy bowed to him politely and left.
Lisa unfocused her gaze at him and took her chopsticks with hesitation.
He smiled slightly at her. But he looked at her right hand again.
Stark carried his plate in his hand and stood up. All of them looked at him. "I'm done!" He said, then left from there with a bare face.
Eron also collected the food on the floor onto his plate and left.
He looked back at him after washing the plate in a rush.
Eron's running feet reached him. "Stark, I want to ask you something," Eron said.
"What?" Srark raised his voice without looking at him.
Eron swallowed often until they reached the classroom. Eron asked while Stark was entering the classroom, "Does Lisa have a blue-colored mole on her right hand?"
Stark stopped right there. He gave him a suspicious look and asked, "Why are you curious about this?"
"I just want to know," Eron replied after squeezing his hands with hesitation.
"Ask her directly!" Stark said and went towards his seat and started to sleep on his table.
Eron sat next to him and pleaded, "Please tell me!"
Stark uprighted his head. He asserted, "I don't know," and started to sleep again.
He walked out of the classroom with a lowered shoulder and a depressed look.
Larzhy and her friends were coming his way.
Wazhirio pushed Larzhy towards Eron while he crossed them. They pumped into each other. So he fell to the floor, facing the ceiling.
Larzhy's hair flipped from the force of the hit, and her eyebrows were raised and her eyes wide while she was about to fall on him.
She falls on his chest by facing forward while Eron tries to get up by pressing his hands' elbows on the floor.
She stood up as soon as possible by placing her hands on his chest. She tapped her backside to get rid of the dust, even though she knew she didn't fall on her backside.
He stood up, uttered a little with a depressed look, and his eyes didn't even meet hers.
"Are you alright?"
"Sorry!" Larzhy tapped his shirt against the dust as he was about to take one step away.
"I'm alright!" He intoned and ignored her, moving along the verandah.
"What happened to him?" They stared at him without blinking.
Larzhy brooded at him.
thereafter, Lisa, Xiye, and Kenyan came to the classroom. "Can we play now?" Kenyan asked Lisa before he went to his seat.
"Let's play!" Lisa stood up and cheered up an expressionless Xiye.
"I'm not in the mood," Xiye denied her excitement and started to sleep on the table.
"Let's go, we can play." Lisa pulled Kenyan's hand.
"But, how?" Kenyan dragged his words while she was pulling him out of the classroom.
They went to the playground and stood right next to the tree.
"Who is going to do it first?" Lisa asked.
"Let's play rock, paper, scissors," Kenyan suggested.
"Rock! Paper! Scissors!" Lisa lost first. So, she is the catcher.
"1,2,3…" She started to count the numbers by closing her eyes.
Kenyan ran from her and hid behind another tree.
"99,100!" Lisa turned and looked around the playground. She ran to the tennis court side, saw the students playing, and noticed the tree line early.
"I caught you!" she pointed out to him quickly.
Next, Kenyan started to count the numbers near the tree. "1,2,3…"
"I'm going to make him tired of catching me!" She asserted herself and ran towards the classroom.
"56,57,58…" Suddenly, a crow disturbed the peace in the middle. He scratched his head and started counting again. "1,2,3…"
Lisa went to the first floor upstairs. She opened the door and felt and observed the energy of the sun by spreading her hands horizontally.
"Wow, I'm going to sleep here," she said, admiring the bright sun as she hid behind the water tank.
"75,76,77…" that crow peed on his head. Without knowing that, he rubbed it and sniffed it. "Oh, this crow pitch!" He bites his teeth out of a nasty, wrinkled face.
So, he went to the restroom, washed his hair, and kept cursing. "I'm going to sue all the crows in the world, they didn't even let me play peacefully."
He was coming to the playground after washing his hair.
"Now, I'll count from here," he said while standing near the basketball court and looking at the tree side. "1,2,3…"
"67,68…" His ears waved to the barking sounds of dogs that were roaming on the streetside.
"Oh, shit!" Kenyan anger reached his head. He was counting with tensed muscles. "1,2,3…"
A few minutes later, "88,89,90…" He struck in the end.
Kenyan put his finger on his lips and looked up at the sky, thinking deeply. "What is the next number?"
Lisa got tired of sitting, so she leaned on the water tank and fell peacefully asleep.
A boy came there slowly who was wearing a school uniform. His feet were covered by white shoes, and he took steps closer to her hand. That boy's deliberate eyes were gazing at her face and then staring at her right hand. Then he kneeled to her and stretched his hand over her right hand, so that place turned into a circle of blue color. And the sky also turned a grey color little by little. So, she went to deep sleep as her body slid a bit and she fell smoothly on the floor.
Eron walked lazily up the stairs, which was the way to the library.
At the time, he casually noticed a boy coming down from upstairs.
