Ash-boss
A Thousand Stories: Misunderstanding

Eren was flipping through the old book with the cover that Aksara had brought for him. The black-coated old book that became the book of destiny belonged to both figures of Laras.

"Old black-clad books..."

"Is it the same book?" Aksara sipped her tea on the cup she had just poured.

"I'll show you later!" answer Eren. "How was your day?"

"You're trying to ask that?" Aksara staring dislike. "Who is this Laras? He was no different from Laras at our second meeting on his life. "

"Only the opposite nature!" added Eren.

"Bare to bet, the photo spread is the picture?"

"Since when have you been affected by the word bet!"

"Since I've enjoyed my time as a student...Hahaha" Aksara's laughter gushed.

The elegant laugh. For some reason under no circumstances can these two creatures look ridiculous. Both are so stunning and make anyone who sees it. As ridiculous as their appearance or actions, it still looks very attractive compared to those around them.

"It seems I don't need to care too much about those two obscure creatures!" laras said behind his binoculars. The binocular lens highlighted focus then blur, as Laras cast his gaze away with erratic thoughts.

The same thing was repeated again by Laras when he accidentally saw the same scene happening in the old house housing trend center. Watching two dark-clothed men chatting on the porch of his house.

"What am I doing!!!?" Barrel threw away his binoculars. He stretched his body and looked at the ceiling of his room. "What really happened to me?!"

The barrel stretches both of his hands to the side. Then raise one of them as if his hand was able to reach the ceiling of his room by just lying down.

"He stopped shoveling in here?" Aksara response that again sipped tea on the cup.

"Why do you always care about the actions of the horns."

"You're not jealous, are you?" Aksara put down his tea cup. Stand up and walk up to Eren who is sitting on the edge of the terrace.

"I deserve it!"

"Not yet!" answer Aksara. "You're just like it! Not tied!" Aksara.

Eren clenched his hands tightly.

"I'll tie him up soon!"

"Just do! What a fuck I do!"

The debate between the two made Eren and Aksara's attention focused on the window of Laras' room. Where the girl left it wide open and showed a hand that floated into the air.

"Not like I thought, is it?!" Aksara noticed another shadow circulating around Laras. So even Eren who knew had disappeared from a standing position beside Aksara.

"Damn!" gerutu Aksara's. The next action is following the departure of Eren.

While the two men were debating it, the girl was now more and more pensive with her thoughts.

"I live alone in this world!" mumbles Baras. "Both of my parents died when I was two years old. Grandpa and Grandma left me before I graduated high school. My life is almost without friends. And of all the misfortunes, I'm grateful to have a good place to live..."

Realizing that he was living alone made Laras very silent for a long time. The Barrel's hands clenched in the air. He drew to see the shadow of his hand on the wall and then played the shadow of his hand like he was being attacked by something that made him flap his hand in the air.

This is what Aksara and Eren saw. Which makes both of them think that Laras has been bullied again by a dark-eyed black shadow figure. Eren had thought that Laras would disappear like what Rein experienced after the attack of the dark-eyed shadow figure on that night.

Laras had just opened his eyes when he found Eren dead rigid right in front of his eyes. Eren's position that overlapped Laras' body made Laras shout spontaneously. Woke up the neighbors who were in deep sleep and kicked the man in full force.

Before Laras's kick actually hit the man's body, Aksara hurriedly pulled the friend and disappeared from the Baras room using his power.

"Stupid!" gumam Aksara's.

Eren is still in shock. Not realizing that his position was really going to make Laras think badly of him tomorrow.

"Damn!!" Eren ruffled his hair. Staring bitterly at Aksara and leaving Aksara on the balcony of his room.

"Rest! Looks like you still need that after the wound yesterday!" yelling A shrill character that increasingly made Eren irritated by his presence.

"Go! Take care of whatever is your business!" Reply Eren shouted.

"Stupid!" grumbling Baras to himself. "Why can I imagine such an embarrassing thing!!!"

Laras rose from his tambourine position. Get out of bed and look at himself in the mirror with pity.

C'mon Laras!! Just because you live alone doesn't mean you can think like that! Especially for someone who has had someone else in their life.

Laras drowned. His mind went back to chaos with all the things that Laras had in mind. Especially considering the shadow he had in his mind about Eren's figure.

"Why should he?!" Laras sat down. "Of all the people I know, why should that man..."

Why should Eren??

Long stunned barrel. Look back at the glass in front of him. Showing the image of himself is also Eren's shadow on the mirror in the corner of the room.

Eren looked at himself in the mirror. Holding the part of his heart that was pounding erratically. It felt like what he had just experienced made Eren lose all his courage to face Laras tomorrow.

*What might Laras think about what just happened!!" Eren held his heart. Then ruffled her hair back. Thinking of all the possibilities that Baras had in mind of him, Eren decided to avoid the girl but still appeared on campus to avoid his worst thoughts about Laras' opinion of him.

"I have to avoid it tomorrow!"

The wind was strong that night. Leave a sense of uneasiness both for Laras and Eren in their respective thoughts about the events experienced by both because of the response of Eren's actions to something that was done Laras.

Absolutely an impossible misunderstanding each of them could explain with his thoughts. Make Eren or Laras have thoughts to avoid each other at their meeting the next day.

The learning activities are going on as usual. Eren who should have been able to not come to the class, chose to come. Though intending to avoid Laras, but curious about the response that might be shown Laras makes Eren think to come to campus and pay attention to Laras from a distance.

"Basic freak!" Zara Gumam. A creature in a black dress with a Spanish guitar body with clean white wings. The girl was perched on the highest tree branch in the courtyard of the campus.

"You noticed it too?" The script raises its head upwards. Greet and greet the girl in an unusual way. "Come down, you look pretty flashy up there?!"

"really?" Zara has moved next to Aksara. Wearing official clothes that appear to blend in with all students on campus.

"How are you?"

"Of course it's good!" the answer. "You're spending too much time playing around."

"I just can't ignore what's assigned to me."

"Still about that forbidden soul?!"

"Laras is a guardian of the valley."

"Village guard?!" Zara doubts Eren's statement. "Which valley?! Didn't all the valleys already have their own guards?!"

"Me and Eren call the valley a valley of exiles! Because all that's in it are dark-eyed souls who swallow anything in the dark!"

"Exilic valley? A valley with dark-eyed souls?!" the question was convincing again.

"The valley is beyond the gray valley, the valley that made Laras the forbidden soul of the universe."

"Then what does he think of the valley?!"

"He didn't know it either!"

Aksara and Zara's gaze was fixed on the figure of Eren who was with a girl.

"Who's that dark-laced girl with him?" Zara frowned.

"Dark-laughing girl?" The script repeats Zara's speech.

The girl was a short-haired Laras figure in the view of all the campus residents. But not in the eyes of Laras and Zara, who had just seen his figure for the first time.

"That girl." Zara's gaze was immediately blocked by something that made her have to turn her gaze to another figure who was now walking towards where Eren and the girl he did not know was talking.

Or rather, Eren and the girl were making out.
