Strange Events
“ It's kinda embarrassing but I didn't know where the Infirmary was” Thea said, turning her head away from Mal.
“ It took about 20 minutes I think” Thea said embarrassed.
“ 20 minutes?!”
“How were you able to carry me all that time?”
“Did anyone help you?” Mal asked.
“ I am very strong you know.”
“Carrying you is easy” Thea said as she thought
“ Compared to all the things I have carried, carry you is easy”
Mal looked at Thea surprised and then said, “ Wait a second!”
“The bell that rang just now, was it the lunchtime bell?”
Thea nodded.
“Hahhh....” Mal sighed before getting up from the bed.
“Are you ok?”
“You should say in bed.”
“You lost a lot of blood you know” Thea said as she got up from the chair and walked to Mal.
“ I'm fine, maybe just a little dizzy” he said.
“I should have wore my glasses when I went in the library ” he muttered as he turned to leave.
“ You are up. ”
“Finally, if you had been asleep when I arrived, I would have thought you was doing this for spite to skip classes.” someone said from by the doorway.
It was same girl Thea saw before with long, black hair in a low ponytail, and she had amber eyes. She had dark brown skin almost like chocolate which was different from her brother that had pale skin. Her dark circles under her eyes made her look like she exhausted seemed to have grown.She glanced around the room.
“Where is the nurse” Shime asked before looking at me and said,“ Oh it's you again.”
“ Why are looking for her?”
“Did you get hurt?” Mal asked worried.
“ It's nothing.”
“Anyway, how are you feeling?” She asked
“Just a little dizzy” Mal answered.
“ I will treat your wounds.”
“Where is it? ” Mal said
“ I said it was nothing” She said giving Mal her hand.
“Thea, if there anything you wanted to do now you can go ahead.”
“Sorry I wouldn't be able to go with you” Mal said
“Why is he apologizing” Thea asked herself before saying,“ I will stay here with you guys and you don't have to apologize because it not like I asked you to follow me anyways.”
It was quiet for a moment and then Mal said, “ You said it was nothing! ”
“Look at this bruise.”
“How did you get it anyway?”
“ I was protecting a girl from getting hit with a ball.”
“ I didn't seem this bad when I got it though” Shime answered.
Thea watched as Mal carefully patched up Shime's wound.
“You really care about your sister. ”
“ I wish I had a sibling who cared about me like you do” Thea said with a regretful look on her face.
“ When your sibling is the only person who cares about you of course you will grow to love her" Mal said with a soft and gentle smile on his face.
“ Ahh... Sorry I didn't mean to make you talk about something so sad” Thea said once again with a regretful look on her face.
