Chapter 4

FERRY'S POV

"Class, please sit down." the teacher said. He started teaching his lesson to us and I somehow focus on it. I need to keep my mind intact and not be worried.

My father has reasons why I'm here. He must have one! It can't be that he accidentally sent me here.

When will he pick me up here? I don't want to be here anymore. I'm scared. It sounds gay but yes, I'm fucking scared! I looked down and wanted to cry my heart out. I might burst into tears if I continue living here or die horribly.

I want to leave here. I want t go back home. I clenched my fist and hopefully wished for Dad to contact me as soon as possible. I closed my eyes and let my mind eat me alive with those horrible thoughts.

"There's no reason for you to be scared."

A voice interrupted my reverie. I opened my eyes and looked beside me. A cold expression is still on her face while focusing on the board.

I gave her a confused look. What is she talking about? She exactly knew that I'm worried, is it too obvious and easily can be seen?

"Based on your expression, -- yes, It's too obvious," she added. I was shocked and almost drop my mouth open again. Damn! How can she even guess that? She's not even looking!

I did not even notice that she's her beside me. Since when did she come? Did I fall into deep thoughts again?!

"How did you-- I mean, you're not looking b-but you guessed it right," I said trying hard not to stammer but fail.

She finally gave me a look. She's really beautiful even with a cold expression on. With her pair of gold eyes, I must die wishing on having that but it suits her even more.

"Staring is rude, Mr. Vladimir." She said. I pull myself back and cleared my throat. Even in our place, it's hard to see such a beautiful eye with a strong aura.

"I'm sorry. I just can't enough of your eyes... It's unique and beautiful." I said. She just gives me a stern look but she's the first one to look away. I smirked, I guess I made her blush.

"Mr. Vladimir, please turn your head on the front. Stop staring or else I'll snatch your eyes from you." She tells me with a cold voice. Her voice is angelic yet cold, and it always brings a strange impact on my body.

I obeyed what she says and just let my day ends with a full brain. Not bad, they still teach us the best, although, the place is creepy together with the ambiance, it still does not let people ruin the reputation of the schools' right of teaching.

"Class, please have your dinner and head back to your dormitory. Keep safe" The teacher said and left the room.

"Dinner? At 4 o'clock in the afternoon?!" I hissed almost shouted. Some students looked at me like I'm a weirdo or what. Damn! I must learn some rules here or else I'll be left alone again. But why it is too early to eat dinner? I might starve later if I don't eat.

I hurriedly stood up and was ready to leave the room when I heard her talk.

"Eat your dinner on time and don't be late...again." after that she left, without even looking at me.

Again? As the thought flowed back in my mind of what happened yesterday still hurt my ego until now. They have the guts to say that but did not bother to tell me! I almost died from a heart attack seeing that girl with bloody red eyes. I clenched my fist and left the room.

I headed to the cafeteria and grabbed some food for myself to eat. It's too early and I'm not in the mood anymore. How can they be heartless?! They knew that I'm new here but still manage to not inform me, even the slightest information for my safety!

"Faster. I don't want to be caught by the President." I heard from a scared girl.

"Stop Chelsea! I'm eating, okay?! And it's still daylight! Gosh." her friend replied.

As I heard them talk about the president, it keeps me wonder if who is she and have they meet this person already. They always talked about the president and how scary she is.

I thought it was just a play or what but it seems that this school is not a school. If it is a school, why do they just react like it was nothing when there is a dead body in front of them? Was that part of the play?

"Handsomeeeeee! I meet you again!"

A loud voice disturbed my peace again. I looked up and I saw the girl who helped me that night.

"Kathy," I called her name. Her eyes eventually turned into a heart shape when I called out her name.

"You still remember me handsome! I'm here to serve you, Mr. Vladimir." she excitedly said. She threw herself around me and hugged me tightly. People are looking at us and I gently push Kathy away from me, away from rumors that might spread about us.

"Please behave," I told her. She distanced herself from me and smiled at me like there is no tomorrow. Sighed. Girls are always girls.

"The Devil is here again." I heard someone say. I know it a not just me who heard it, I know even Kathy heard it because I'm now looking for a Kathy who is ready to devour anyone with that look at any moment.

To get her attention I cleared my throat. In instant, she's back to being a jolly girl who always compliments me.

"If you're done eating, we can head now to our dormitory," She said dreamily. I don't know what she mean by that but I just shrugged and eat fast so that we can head back early.

"I need to go to the office for at least 5 minutes--" I said to Kathy, but my words got cut by her when she stopped walking and faced me with a serious look.

"You can't! We only have ten minutes to be back safely and yet you want to look danger for yourself?" She rudely asked me and I was caught off guard by her sudden change of attitude.

What's wrong? We're okay and she's calm since we left the cafeteria. Why mad all of a sudden? It's only 4:45 and we still have time before 6 pm.

When she saw my expression, her expression changed, and realized she was wrong for approaching me with such a voice.

"I'm sorry," she said. "I don't want you to repeat a mistake that happened yesterday. You almost got caught. If she caught you, you're dead" she also said in a worried voice.

Caught me? If I'm not mistaken that lady I saw with red bloody eyes already caught me! She's also looking at me if my mind serves me right. I can't say that she has red bloody eyes if I didn't see her look in my direction! Damn. Now, I'm really confused.

She already caught me but why did she leave after Kathy grabbed me to hide? Should I tell Kathy about this or just everyone is bluffing about the President's identity, and telling stories to believe how she treated those stubborn who disobey her?

Are they just trying to scare me?
