Getting use to place.

It’s been a week since Hana start to live in her apartment and she was now used on how to handle her sleeps and schedule. It’s also been a week since she transfer on university to continue her course in fine arts. She got in through scholarship, so she’s glad that everything was going fine even though she ignore everyone and enjoying the life as a lonely college student.

--

Today was Hana’s second week on her tutoring job, her first encounter didn’t go that well but she still came back because this is the only way for an introvert person like her to live and have a job.

“Good morning Mrs. Hudson!” Hana greeted immediately as the woman in front open the door for her.

The said woman smiled widely and gestured her to come inside. “It’s nice to see you again, Hana. I’m glad that you came back after what Aziel had done last week to you.”

Hana let out a chuckle and replied politely to the older. “There’s no big deal about it Mrs. Hudson, he was just shock and thought that I’m some kid like him.” A small flashback of the said incident was back on Hana’s head and all she just do was to smile on the kid’s action.

“Who are you?” the kid asked Hana entered the study room.

“I’m your tutor.” She calmly replied.

“What? How can a kid that younger than me can be my tutor?” He annoyingly asked.

“Huh? I’m not youn-“ before Hana could even defend herself, the kid push her out the room. But Mrs. Hudson said that she would explain it to her son and that’s why Hana’s here. Aziel wants to apologize and continue the tutoring as he felt bad on his attitude towards the older girl.

“Well I can’t blame him because for a 9 year old like my son, doesn’t have a height like that. And also for you! You are a 19 year old but look so much younger to your age.” Mrs. Hudson replied as they are now both seated on the couch, grabbing some juice.

Hana was a bit taken a back on the lady’s statement but she just ignore it and take it as a compliment. Well she doesn’t even need to bother, its run on their blood. It’s good that at least she’s taller than her sister, being 4’11 feet tall is okay for her. “I think having a baby face it’s a charm but not until our guard in school always asked if I’m a college student.” She said jokingly.

Mrs. Hudson let out a laugh about her statement and motivate her a bit before she could start the tutoring, “Don’t worry about others opinion, you’re beautiful and smart enough honey. Take it as a compliment if they talk about you’re appearance.” She said and head Hana on Aziel’s study room.

“Thank you about it Mrs. Hudson, I will take your words as lesson.” Hana replied before entering the room as she saw that Aziel was already sitting.

“Before that, I still want to tell something.” Mrs. Hudson said before leaving the two on the room. Hana and a busy Aziel look at her direction. “Could you just call me Bethany or Mom if you like, I feel so uncomfortable to hear a formal name.” she continued and smile at Hana.

“It’s okay B-bethany. I’m okay with it!” Hana shyly replied. Mrs. Hudson smile and leave after she hear the girl’s response.

It’s almost nighttime when Hana finish the tutoring, everything goes fine as Aziel apologize many times and even give Hana some gift. They even both enjoy each other’s company and get some small talk about life. Hana can’t even believe that a 9 year old like Aziel have many admirers on their school, and she doesn’t want the feeling of jealousy on how the kid get so much attention and nothing compares to her boring and dark life.

She came back on her apartment with a low energy as she can’t help but to overthink again. So to stop from being sad and problematic, she just sleep all the thoughts and let darkness takes everything.

“I hate him.” Hana muttered down her breath as she walk inside the university. Every morning as her daily struggle, the guard check and question again her age so she can’t stop but to be pissed early in her now not so good morning.

As she walk silently on the hall, she felt so relieve that no one bothers to look and question her existence. So she just continue her daily routine, entering her class silently and exiting it also as quiet as usual. She was walking her way on the next class she had when someone bump her body and she was thrown and hit on the wall. To the impact of the strong force that hit her, she feel dizzy and saw blurry things in front of her. Hana have a weak and lightweight body so being thrown on something easily won’t be a surprise.

“Are you okay?” a voice asked her and offer a hand for Hana to stand. But as she gain her vision and looked at the person in front of her. She felt surprised and start feel her heartbeat became unsteady, her small eyes became wider as she looked at the man with all panic.

Hana wanted to tell something but before she could even formed a sentence, she felt her chest aches and her eyes shuts and she didn’t know but to feel calm as everything was cover of darkness.

On the other hand, the guy who bump her was confused and felt panic as everyone’s eyes was on their direction. The guy didn’t hesitate and hurriedly lift the unconscious girl in front of him as he don’t want to catch more attention from other student. He bring Hana to the clinic and left as he explained to nurse that he has some important things needed to handle.
