Lost

“ It's ok.”

“I was the one who brought it up anyway” Mal said finish patching up Shime's arm and put the first aid kit on the table close to the corner of the room.

Then they heard a door open and when the looked it was the nurse.

“ Hey, kiddo” She said in a familiar tone and then looked over to Shime surprised.

“ What are doing here?”

“ Are you injured? ” She asked.

“ Mia, it's nothing serious.”

“ Don't worry about it” Shime responded calmly.

Thea looked at Shime's expression on her face.

“ It's different from when she visited Mal earlier. She looks just a little bit calmer. ” Thea thought remembering Shime face when she heard that Mal was injured.

“ Even though it was a little bit, I remember a sad almost worried expression on her face. ” Thea thought and Mal looked at her surprised

Thea was lost in her thoughts for a moment before looking at how everyone interacted with eachother and muttered, “ This is....nice.”

Everyone turned and looked at her confused except for Mal who chuckled, his face fill of life the exact opposite of Shime that was dim.

“ I'll be leaving now. Mal take care of yourself. ” Shime said looking back once more before leaving.

“ I am going to buy lunch in the cafeteria. Do you buy in the cafeteria too or no? ” Thea asked Mal.

“ Yeah, I would just like chicken and chips. ” Mal said handing Thea twelve dollars.

“ Would you like anything Miss, Mrs. Mia?” Thea asked politely.

“ You can just call me Mia and anything is fine” She answered handing her a twenty dollar bill.

“ Ok" Thea said before she left with the money and stopped.

“ I don't know where the cafeteria is. ” Thea thought to herself.

She walked in a random direction and bounced into a boy by mistake. They both got up saying sorry and Thea picked up his phone that fell when they bounced into eachother.

“ Thankfully it doesn't have any cracks. ” Thea said.

The boy took back his phone saying, “ Don't worry about it. My phone is like a Nokia plus I was getting a new one anyway. ”

He looked at me before asking, “ Are you lost?”

“ Yes. How did you know that I was lost? ” Thea asked and the boy answered, “ I could see it or I had a feeling, I guess.” he said almost unsure.

“ Ah ... Anyways ... I was going to ask you if you could show me where the cafeteria is. Can I? ” Thea asked a little embarrassed.

“ Sure.” He said taking his phone before leading me to the cafeteria.

“ Thanks ” Thea said happily following him.

He looked at me surprised before asking, “ Are you a transfer student ?”

“ Yeah ” Thea said

“ What form? ” He asked and Thea answered, “ Form 3. ”

For some reason Thea felt nervous. The way he asked questions kind of sounded like an interrogation.

He stopped and looked back at Thea saying , “ There is no need to be nervous ” before continuing walking and after a while they reached to the cafeteria.

“ Wow ” Thea said looking at the cafeteria as the boy looked at her.
