"Pfft! Hahaha. Did you know how long you two glared at each other?" Rei whispered at him as he laughed softly but Kira wasn't listening to him at all. He appeared as though he was suddenly meditating deeply when in fact, he was actually just thinking about that Squirrel. He was sure from that one glance that she was no ordinary girl. He felt that there was something intriguing about her which he himself couldn't say exactly what it was. And one of the biggest questions was 'why her'? Who was she? Old man, what the hell are you thinking?
Time passed and the bell was about to ring for the noon break.
Kira's gaze was locked on the girl in front of him. He already decided to make a move on her right away. Besides, no matter how mysterious she was, she was still a girl, a fragile creature that would easily fall for his charms.
However, an unexpected scene unfolded before his eyes once again.
As soon as the bell rang, Squirrel was the first to stand. Kira stood as well but before he could even move to approach her, she suddenly moved and like a swift wind, she disappeared from the classroom, seemingly turning invisible that no one noticed her movements except for him, who was staring at her the whole time.
"Haha, isn't she quite intriguing? That move, no matter how many times I think about it… was just too cool. Do you think she's a ninja?" Rei said mischievously as he leaned his arm on Kira's shoulder.
Kira was silent so Rei continued talking.
"And it seems like that girl only es back in the last few seconds before the bell rings. Every single time. I don't know why but it seems like she doesn't want to be noticed or maybe she's avoiding something… So? What's the plan?"
"Find her."
"Eh? Right away? Aren't you being way too impatient?"
"Waiting for right chance to e by is a waste of time,"
"So you'll just create every perfect chance instead? Fine, just wait a minute." Rei sighed as he took his phone right away and called someone. After a while, the two moved out of the classroom and walked towards the stairs going up to the rooftop.
As soon as they reached the rooftop, the two began to play basketball. There was a single ring standing in the middle of the spacious and wide rooftop surrounded by chain-link fence. There was also a storage room on the right hand side.
Kira and Rei's gaze were focused on top of the storage room. There was no ladder around so they could only deduce that she must have climbed to the top. Both of them could already tell she was more than just a skilled wall climber to have managed to climb such a high and smooth wall.
After a short while, Kira purposely threw the basketball on top of the storage room.
"Oh man! That's why I told you not to use too much strength." Rei said as Kira began to stretch.
"I'll go get it," he said, then he ran at the wall, scurried up and reached the top right away.
Kira's plan was to approach her naturally which was his usual plan of attack when wooing girls. However, what appeared before his eyes that moment made his eyes narrow again.
The girl sitting under the shadow of a satellite dish turned her head towards him and their eyes met. However, the girl's cheeks were stuffed again and upon seeing her stuffed cheeks, Kira's brain was instantly filled with annoying little squirrels once more.
Tch! This damn squirrel.
Kira bit his lip then stood up and moved towards her. She was holding the ball with her right hand as if she was about to toss it back, while a lunch box was sitting on her lap. She kept on chewing nonchalantly until Kira finally reached her.
He stood before her and she gave the ball to him right away. Kira could only accept it but as soon as he received it, the girl turned her gaze back to the food on her lap. She ate quietly as if no one was there.
He was pletely ignored.
That same moment, an evil smile momentarily carved on his face, and then he nonchalantly sat down beside her. The girl turned her face towards him right away. Her eyes blinked as if she was seeing things and she wondered why he didn't go away like she thought he would.
"Do you enjoy eating here?" he asked but the girl just stared at him while chewing her food slowly, as if she was processing the words he just said.
Kira, on the other hand, stared at her intently but gently as he waited for her reply. His focus and his gaze were on her alone as he tried to convey his natural killer charm to her; the charm that never failed him before.
However, the girl suddenly lifted her lunch box…
"Want some?" she asked blankly.
