Chapter 12 - Touching confession

Soo ah, Rose and Lucas, all left the building.

"But aem curious though, i wonder what John's abilities are or do you guys have any ideas?," Soo ah asked his comrades but they all looked at him with unconcerned expression.

"I wonder why you guys are so cold though. It makes me feel like i forced you to join me...," Soo ah complained childishly.

Both Rose and Lucas looked at each other in agreement.

"But i didn't force Lucas right?", Soo ah asked curiously, waiting for Lucas answer.

"No", Lucas replied coldly.

"Then shall we continue our adventure then", Soo ah said excitedly.

*Back at the female hostel,

Eleen lay on her bed, recalling her father's instruction while staring at the ceiling.

Tears began to drop from her eyes but their was no expression on her face like a piece of wood.

" I heard that disrespectful b*tch lives in room 101. Should we go pay her a visit," some of the female students discussed between themselves.

Slam!

Their group leader, Priscilla kicked the door open .She had a crook personality and tend to look at others with disgust.

"Hey you crazy b*tch don't you know how to greet?," one of Priscilla's Hench girl yelled.

Eleen immediately stood up from the bed and walked towards Priscilla,

"Sorry"

She said before attempting to leave the room. Priscilla grabbed Eleen by the arm

"Who said, you could leave," she smiled as she reduced her height to Eleen's by bending her back.

"Well if you really are sorry, why don't you just say it out loud so the whole school can hear it!," Priscilla chuckled as she made funny faces at Eleen.

Eleen ignored her and started to walk away.

"ieee you stupid b*tch," Priscilla proceeded to slap Eleen.

grab!

"I said i'm sory isn't that enough?," Eleen said to Priscilla as she squeezed her hands tightly.

Priscilla noticed the ferocious look in Eleen's eyes and gulped down.

"Wow who is this girl to grab Priscilla's arm", one of Priscilla's Hench girl charged at Eleen.

"What is this idiot trying to do now. She's gonna put us in--," before Priscilla could continue her thought,

Crack!!

Ahh!

Priscilla groaned in pain, holding her broken arm.

"I told you not to push it," Eleen bluntly said before leaving the room. All the students who witnessed it began to clear the way for Eleen as she passed through the walk way.

"You crazy bi*tch. Did i tell you to charge at her like that. That b*tch ain't human," Priscilla choked out as she groaned in pain.

As Eleen walked away, she kept on remembering her father's instruction not to get noticed by other students. She sighed.

John dozed of at Sarah's side. After two hours worth of nap he opened his eyes which were blurry at first. He scratched his belly as he blinked twice looking at the bed.

Everything began to look clear to him and he noticed Sarah was no longer on the bed.

What!,

he rubbed his eyes once more, trying to clarify his vision. He stood up from the bed and noticed a shadow at his back. He turned to look and noticed Sarah. He quickly rushed towards her,

"Sarah! Sarah i'm so happy you're-," he said excitedly as he turned her to his side.

"Hun! you're not Sarah?!," John said in utmost surprise.

"Oh John. Nice that you're up i'm Maya, our group leader," she smiled at John.

"Oh you mean the one who got beat - a em(clears throat)" John bowed his head in embarassment.

"I didn't know, she would be that strong but i've got to try harder. Anyways Sarah is training in the isolated space just next door," Maya smiled with determination.

"Oh thanks and sorry about earlier," John said before rushing out.

John approached the door of the training room, It was a white wooden door with knob handle.

"Why's this school old school" John sighed just before he slowly opened the door. He took a glimpse inside and noticed Sarah's presence.

He took a deep breath and prepared to enter the room.

fwush!

"What the!," John staggered as he entered the room. He stared forward and noticed that odd familiar look.

"Oh so this is the training room like the one at home," he looked around the room.

"Oh hey John. Glad you're up," Sarah said as she unwrapped the bandage from her hands and tied her hair in donut style.

Just as John was about to reply her, he noticed Sarah's exposed curves and cleavage due to her training jumpers.

"Uhm i guess you're busy right now. I shall get going," John stuttered as he walked quickly towards the exit.

"Hun?! Where is the door," John slowly turned back as he began chanting,

"Thou shall not fall into temptation"over and over again.

"Oh this is an isolated space room so it turns a small space into a vast space so this space is basically unlimited. The door should be riiight there," Sarah said, pointing towards the door.

John slowly tilted his head towards Sarah and felt a sign of relieve because Sarah had placed her towel round her neck, reducing the exposure.

"Oh thanks for looking out for me John. I didn't want to wake you up so i came here to train," Sarah crouched down on the floor.

"That was a hella of a nap," John chuckled as he crouched next to Sarah.

"Oh they just give you drugs that makes you sleep to heal faster and rest your core especially if you were severly injured" Sarah clenched her knees as she recalled the moment she was stabbed.

John noticed this and moved closure to hug her.

"No John we barely know each other and you wanna date!" Sarah exclaimed.

"When did i say that. I just thought you needed a friend at that moment," John quickly stood up, embarrassed.

"I was just kidding dude," Sarah laughed as she teased John.

"I've got to get going to the hostel now" John quickly rushed out and slammed the door.

Huff

Huff

"What was that back there. Well i do want a girl friend no i mean a female friend... Oh gosh", John said confusedly as he slowly slide to the ground.

"Soo ah! why don't we just go back to the student hall or something. Its been ages," Rose complained.

"Ok then let's just go to one last stop," Soo ah begged Rose.

"Hey guys"

"Oh hey John. What are you doing up?," Rose Said nervously.

"Nice compliment miss," John smiled at her.

Her cheeks became an instant tomato all red over. She immediately stood behind Soo ah.

"Nice! Now that you are here, we can all go to the last stop together," Soo ah said cheerfully.

"Sorry but i've got to go meet my grandpa. Later guys" John smiled as he waved, bye at them.

"You could have see your face back there. It seems like you are madly in love," Soo ah teased her as he patted her back.

"No i'm not jackass," Rose angrily replied.

"I will need that one of those emotion suppressor device Dickson. I have been going bunkers lately," grandpa asked Dickson.

"Oh i should be able to get those-"

Slam!, John came in panting.

"Where have you been gramps, ive literally gone round the whole school" John choked out as he panted.

"Well you cannot just go around slamming and kicking any doors," Grandpa glared at John.

"Oh hehe my bad," John answered.

"Grampa, i have a lot of-"

"Wait for me at Layla's office!" grandpa bluntly interrrupted.

John scoffed before sluggishly moving towards the principal's office.

John greeted Layla before sitting down. Grandpa came into the office few minutes after John had arrived.

"We will like to discuss something with you John. It's about your power..." grandpa said.

"Okay but what's with this awkward tension," John said as grandpa was purposely staring into his soul.

"We concluded that hiding it from you will make it more difficult to manage," Layla said.

"The reason why there have been various attacks from the league of villains is because they need to get a hold of your pow--"

"Oh god! this cannot be happening," John began to sweat profusely.

"John! You may have the ability to manipulate time, space and probably the entire universe and the league of villains need it for god knows what. You need to stop acting like a child and face it up," grandpa poured his mind to John straight.

"That was too harsh" Layla whispered to grandpa.

"Your system info is restricted to avoid being noticed by other student," Layla said but John wasn't paying any attention.

"So you mean this stupid power is merely nothing other than a curse!," John burst into tears.

Eleen walked to the toilet and removed the communication device from her tooth,

"Eleen have you made any progress?"

"I have managed to secure the room address of John and shall start to act from tomorrow."

"Do make sure that nothing goes wrong because time is running out"

"Yes father."

"I have to find a way to warn John about Eleen," Author thought as he heard Eleen's conversation.
