RISE OF CHIMERA: The Beginning Of This Story
~INI MY PROBLEM 1~
Yoki and Gaia had already returned home, but the father who questioned them was still in the hallway where he had escaped.
He completely stepped aside, after feeling that the conversation with the two of them had reached a dangerous stage.
“Haaah .. Those students are too curious. Let alone that girl.”
He said it, leaning against a dull old wall.
“But, about the child I asked earlier ..” while putting one hand to support the chin, “I'm not too sure yet, but I think he's the one.”
Afterwards, he picked up the cell phone located in his pants pocket.
“Bos, regarding the tasks you provide. The boy's name is Kenichi.”
The person he called showed a jolted tone, perhaps what he had told had been executed well by his men.
“What it is .…”
“Regarding that, I'm not too sure.”
It turned out that the assumption was wrong, the pleasure he felt earlier had disappeared. He was treated with the cigarette he was currently smoking.
“Haaah ... stupid!”
The words of ketus pitched clasped were uttered, making the father slightly jerked. Maybe it's appropriate for him, because his men are not good at running errands.
“Quiet boss, I will watch him for three days and will see if he is that boy.”
“Then so quickly do!” he stopped his words, from the phone it sounded that he was exhaling cigarette smoke, “don't until I report you to the big boss.”
The words of “bos big” have become a terror in itself for him. His eyes shuddered in fear and those words could even shake the caller's hand.
“Ba-baik.”
He hung up the phone. Now he's looking at his cell phone. It seemed, that big boss was the one who could make his men obey, just by hearing his name alone.
“This time I have to succeed.”
Afterwards, he keeps an eye on Kenichi's movements. For three days, he kept his eyes open and locked his focus on the target.
From afar of course, so that his existence is unknown.
At school, morning .…
Today is the eighth day since their previous homeroom teacher died. The school is not willing to prolong this matter, it is too shady. Moreover, the school is not a house, but an educational institution that must carry out its duties.
All of these problems were passed on to the authorities. Authorities alone cannot disclose the case, especially with schools that are not experts in the field.
For the eighth day after the incident, it could be seen that the school atmosphere returned to normal. Because all the sadness and loss, it is only a personal matter.
Normal is not all. When it comes to school damage, that's an exception. The traces and memories of the monster were still engraved clearly in front of the entrance of the school.
Any occupants who pass by, will surely ring the incident on that day. There are many feelings that arise when passing through it. Perhaps, it would all be over when it was fixed.
Even if they don't wear them, they all go by there. So did Yoki and Gaia who walked as usual towards their classroom.
When they reached the classroom, the school bell rang immediately indicating that teaching and learning activities at the school were about to begin.
The alertness of the students in the class is worth a thumbs up, they are all ready even before any teacher is seen. Just based on the school bell that rings. Well you could say, their performance increased after the incident.
As a form of respect as possible.
“What school has determined the new homeroom. I don't think so, but this mood ...”
These few days, back at school, had made the three of them re-experience those bitter memories. Moreover, Gaia, her head seemed to be pierced many times. He tried hard for his friends.
It wasn't her intentional, nor an overreaction. But, it was all purely an unconscious reaction that his body released. He just doesn't know why it all happened.
“Good morning bu.”
Everyone stood up, welcoming the incoming teacher into their classroom. Yoki's guess was right, it was just a lesson teacher
As the teacher entered the classroom, his eyes suddenly focused on one student with a wound wrapped in his body. The student was none other than Kenichi.
Likewise with the look of reply given by Kenichi. Well, it seemed like he already knew which way the teacher's gaze was headed and what the gaze meant.
He knew that the wound could not be hidden properly under the uniform. There must be something in sight. Whether it was the color of the blood that faintly appeared, or it could also be due to the bandage that was accidentally seen.
“Kenichi, why did you get hurt so?”
True to Kenichi's estimation, it feels awkward to come to school with a bandaged body.
“This was yesterday I got hit by a bike bu.”
Although the teacher's mother behaved well according to him, Kenichi still wanted to keep the incident a secret. Especially besides him and the teacher, other students were also looking at him like the audience.
“Ya bu.”
After school, Kenichi goes to buy medicine first. He said goodbye to Joki and Gaia because they always went home together. How else, their homes are both unidirectional. Kenichi is in the opposite direction.
*****
After the seller mentions the price, Kenichi spends some money to pay for the drugs he bought. Coming home with a crackle bag on his right hand, Kenichi wanted to take the drug immediately.
Kenichi is walking, but someone is watching him right now. Among the hundreds of eyes, only the pair of eyes that had continued to follow Kenichi's movements. Starting from home, even to this place.
“I have to make sure where he goes, fearing he turns direction and the upcoming team loses track of him.”
He was the same man as the man who asked Yoki and Gaia, the other day. Even the clothes were the same, like he had not been bathing for the sake of following his target.
“He turns, I have to be quick.”
He broke through the crowd, going against the direction and certainly somewhat irritating the people who were walking according to the groove.
“Haaah, oh yes I haven't had lunch.”
While Kenichi did not pay attention to him, he still attached great importance to the affairs of the stomach. After all, he had absolutely no idea that any uninvited guests were keeping an eye on him. Even though, these few days he had already felt this suspicion.
“Ehmmm, no restaurant.”
Kenichi turned the corner and entered the restaurant.
“Pak, order one hamburger.”
Direct orders are given quickly. It has even been wrapped neatly, complete with saos that have been bundled with the instant food.
“Still.”
Kenichi does not want to spend his meal at home, he chooses to eat at the restaurant.
“Haaah, why is it always our happiness to get a hitch of things.”
While eating the hamburger. It seemed, he was about to pour out his heart with such a meal.
“But Gaia's tumbent became reckless. He seemed to feel guilty for continuing to stand behind. I know that feeling.”
“This is the drink kak.”
The waiter handed Kenichi a drink with both hands. Truly polite, even the young maid gave a sincere smile in addition.
“Thank you.”
Suddenly Kenichi remembered something about Gaia. Strange behavior that has always been experienced by Gaia.
“Haaah, if only I had the chance. I'll definitely ask him something. From his expression these few days, especially when we watch the television news it ...”
Kenichi sharpened his gaze, but not to the real world. Except for the mind.
Maybe that's what makes him still silently sculpting and blocking customers who queue at the back.
“I think he knows something.”
“Kak sorry, you blocked the queue.”
The waiter is not impatient, but there are people who want to buy food and beverage products in this restaurant. Well, the business must continue to run for the satisfaction of consumers.
“Oh well sorry.”
Now Kenichi has bought the pot. He immediately turned around again, his meal had run out and that meant, it was time to go home.
The daydream was deliberately abandoned, he felt that there was still time to explore it.
“Good, target already moving.”
It turns out that guy was watching Kenichi from inside the cafe. He was completely dedicated to the job and perhaps too, it was due to the terrorizing influence of the big boss name.
When the door was half opened by Kenichi, he stopped. His head is slightly turned to the right side. He heard the tremors of the table beside his right. Kenichi alleged, it was the sound of people standing up and coming out of the table.
“Table number 13, isn't the food still very much? Why was he suddenly standing up when I was about to get out of this cafe?”
From the question, it could be said that he was really watching the situation in the place. Or it could be, he passed through that table and felt a different way as he passed through it.
“Excuse nak.”
Kenichi's position like that can indeed block the road. Kenichi is aware of that and lets the person out first. But he did not stare at the person and was still glued to the side.
“Entah why my hunch is not good.”
Now Kenichi decides to go home. He did not want to linger there, let alone the many important things he had to do. For example, to treat his wounds.
