"That's it for today" Mrs Christine gathers her books before leaving. I sigh slumping in my seat.
"This is your fifteenth sigh. Hope all is well?" Isa ask concern taking hold of her face.
"I don't know. Things just aren't adding up" I sigh looking out the window.
"And what exactly are those things?" She raises a brow. I look to her contemplating on what I'm about to say
"I don't think Yohan is a human"
"Of course not, he's a man" I wipe my face from frustration that's not directed at her
"I mean he's not a human being" her face scrunches in confusion.
"What do you mean?"
I scoot closer like I'm disclosing a top secret of some sort.
"He's temperature is cold"
"Yeah because of his aura"
"He doesn't look like a human"
"That's because he's very handsome like a greek god" I huff in frustration, nobody's going to believe me.
"Yeah but his heart doesn't beat"
"How do you know that?" I told her about the clubhouse we went a week ago and how I got to know
"Are you sure you're not imagining things? It maybe the alcohol's doing"
"Maybe" I remember the scene when we were chest to chest close. "But I could've sworn I didn't hear a heartbeat"
And what's even funny is the fact that after the club fiasco, I cannot feel his presence or pull, the only time is when I'm having those..dreams.
The moment I wake up—gone.
"Enough of that. What's your plan for the weekend?" I blink my eyes as a means to clear my head
"Well I'm moving back home and....Oh!" I exclaim as I remembered something. "I'm going to The Pink Sin's concert"
Isabella's face fell for a milli second before she beamed too.
"I'm also going"
"Great but we have to get ready at your house because mine needs a lot of attention and care" she nods.
"But where will you go after the fashion show?" I didn't think that far, I was so eager to go and see The Pink Sin that I forgot that bit
"I know! Why don't we have a sleepover after? Then tomorrow we can set out to do the ultimate cleaning of you house"
"That's a splendid idea!!" We do our handshake giggling when Cole and Byron come in bearing iced latte with croissants.
"What did we just miss?" Byron asks as we pack our bags and stuffs.
Isa shrugs smiling at them. "Nothing" she waves at them collecting our drink and croissants.
"Let's go to class, or we're gonna be late" I scoff rolling my eyes.
"When have you ever cared about being early to class?" She eyes me before stepping out.
Just then a call from dad comes through. "Hey Jud" I sign for them to go without me.
"My darling how are you?"
"Dad, I'm in school so please say what you have to say before I lose my scholarship"
"You know we can pay for a university, infact we can buy it" I roll my eyes despite myself.
"Dad? Point of the call?" He sighs, I imagine him signing to Shania about how crazy I make him.
"Why do you have to move? We take good care of you here" I find a seat to lean on because I have a feeling this is gonna be a long call
"Dad we've talked about this, we agreed on me staying until I was fully recovered then I can move back home"
"But this is home, don't you want to be close to your mother?" I sigh looking at my wrist watch.
"Dad, I really have to go, greet Shania for me" I hang up not waiting for his answer.

"Huh!?! He did what?" She gasps dropping her hair towel
I nod my head looking at her reflection on the mirror. "You heard correctly"
Her mouth still agape looking as astonished and gobsmacked as ever.
"He really kissed you?" I shake my head as I put my hair in a sleek bun.
"No he tried" I stop mid-packing as I remember the event.
Cole tried to kiss me thinking that what happened at the club was a go ahead for him. But what's really shocking is when he was close, he looked behind me terrified like he saw a ghost but there was nothing there.
"So why didn't he?" I shrug having no idea.
"Enough chit chat let's get ready and go to this effing concert" declared I as I was done with my hair and makeup.
I decided to wear a pink bodysuit with black leather boots and a jacket for the chills. Isa wore a lavender bodysuit with black leather boots and a jacket too.
Once we were done we put on our shades and we're out for a night of our lives.
♠♠♠
I groan as I pick up the box of the cleaning equipments. "Why did I drink too much?" I ask no one in particular as I open the box bringing out the equipment.
Isa comes down the stairs with shades and an ice pack close to her head. "Why did I drink too much?" She mumbles to herself.
"Come on, the sooner we start this, the sooner we finish" I pick up all the things I need for upstairs.
"You do down, I'll do up" she nods picking the stuffs with one hand, I tool my eyes going up.
After scrubbing, cleaning, disinfecting and more drinking— don't judge. We were finally done.
All that was left is grocery and I honestly don't want to go because my head feels like it's gonna fall any moment now.
But alas, as the hungry monster I am, I still went and shopped everything I will need and more. I walk out of the store with lollipop in my mouth, phone on one hand and the stuffs on the other.
I was walking minding my own business and not paying attention to my surroundings until I bump into someone almost falling; when I was caught by my hero.
The thank you I wanted to say died on my throat the moment I saw who my hero was. His eyes black with hues of red and his jaw keeps ticking like he's trying to control himself.
I look to the hand he's holding as I feel cold and hot sweep over my body, it almost feels like my soul is being sucked out.
I look up to him, to see him almost like he's gonna loose his mind. He looks like he want to kill me and at the same time his eyes shows desire.
My head start feeling light, as I can physically feel my heart beat slower. A growl erupts from his chest.
"You have no idea what you're doing to me, little human" he whispers and before I could register it all, he was gone.
I look around me like a mad woman looking for her purse as I feel my head begin to throb more.
Great, now I'm even seeing things.
