CHAPTER 3

In school… 

While walking through the entrance of school, Nardenia saw Raizel in the distance “Good morning, Raizel!” she shouted. Seira, Regis, Shinwoo and Manage are with him. 

“Eh? It's Nardenia. We should wait for her.” Shinwoo suggested. 

“You're too kind. There's no need for that. She's  so energetic this morning, she will catch up with us.” Regis responded. 

“Huff, Huff… why are they not stopping? I have…a weak heart. I should….stop running.” Nardenia stopped, she was breathing heavily. Almost like she can't breathe. There is no one even trying to ask if she is fine. 

Nardenia bumped into a security guard. He has violet hair and it's very long. His name is Takeo. “Are you fine, girl?” he asked. 

It was Nardenia’s first time to hear that someone is worried about her “Yes. Thank you so much for worrying.” she smiled gently and it was a very warm smile. 

Takeo was confused as to why she was so thankful to him when he just asked if she's fine. Her words too are very…somewhat emotional to hear. 

Nardenia bid goodbye to him and left. “It's so nice to hear it. I'm…so happy today. There are people who care for me.” she became teary. 

Meanwhile...

In the classroom… 

They already all sit in their own chairs. 

“We are here. But Nardenia is still not here. You said she will catch up with us.” Shinwoo frowned at Regis. 

“Maybe she stopped somewhere.” Regis unbothered said.

“There's no way she can't catch up to us, she's noble like us. We have a strength that humans don't have.” Regis mumbled in his mind.  

Suddenly Nardenia arrived. She was breathing heavily. Regis and others we're shocked. 

“Y-you all so fast, I ... .couldn't catch up with you all. Why didn't you all wait for me?!” Nardenia can't breathe properly. 

“We're so sorry, Nardenia. It was because Regis said you're energetic so you could catch up to us. That's why we didn't wait for you.” Shinwoo was feeling sorry. Nardenia just sighed and smiled. She looked at Raizel who was unbothered. She pouted because he doesn't care about it. 

“How can she be weak when she's just like us?” Regis feeling guilty and overthinking because there is no noblesse that is weak. 

Nardenia sits in her chair and Shinwoo keeps saying sorry to her until the teacher arrives. While the teacher is discussing, Nardenia was only staring at Raizel while Raizel is looking through the window. 

“I'm so happy to sit here. I can clearly see his beautiful face.” she thought.

“And…What are you thinking right now that made you look so serious.” she added, looking sad about it. 

It was lunch time already, they eat together, talking, laughing… except for Raizel who never laughs and he seems in deep thoughts again that made Nardenia worried. 

“Um,....Raizel, is there…something worries you??!....” Nardenia asked in a worried tone and everyone went quiet. Raizel was staring at her too long that made everyone nervous and for a while, Raizel just shook his head. 

Many days have passed, Raizel begins to trust Nardenia but he still treats her the same. He finds her a naughty and annoying person who never stops to annoy him. No matter how many times he scares her in his power to make her stay away from him, she is unaffected by it and just smirks and says, “I like it.” Raizel has always had the thoughts if she is crazy or not but never did he know…that it was a show of OBSESSION. Regis and Seira seem to get along well with her too. And the most friendly is Shinwoo and Manabu. Nardenia was so happy that everything went well….NEVER DID SHE KNOW THAT THIS DAY WILL NOT LAST LONG. UNTIL THAT WOMAN ARRIVED THAT MADE HER LOST ALL OF THIS.
