Chap. 31 : Learn Something, Kai
( The next day, NOON … )
This time, it was the Demoralizers that entered the hospital room. The Bladebreakers had gone for school. Lei was the only person in the room, reading a book.
" Morning Lei. How are you feeling ?" asked Asher.
" I'm fine, thanks." Smiled Lei, putting her book aside.
" So, you're awake." Smiled Namie.
" Yeah. Yesterday." Said Lei.
" I bet Hiwatari's happy." Muttered Edmund as Salem elbowed him.
" Mmmm …" said Lei, sighing.
" What's wrong ?" asked Salem.
Lei hesitated. " You guys might think I'm crazy if I say it."
" No we won't, we're your friends, aren't we ?" smiled Namie.
" I can't stay here." Lei blurted out before she could even stop herself.
Silence filled the room. Lei sighed again.
" Why ?" asked Asher, concerned.
" It's because of him. I can't stay here with him !"
" Why that punk !!! I'm gonna beat the shit out of him !!!" growled Edmund, rolling up his sleeves.
" No don't !!!! It's not his problem, it's mine. I don't know but I just-" Lei was broke off by Salem.
" Can't stay with him. Yes, we know, we know." She finished.
" Well, why ?" asked Namie, concerned.
" I can't stay, after what I showed him, he's not going to treat me as a normal being like before." Mumbled Lei.
" How can you be so sure ? You don't know what he's thinking."
Lei hesitated and looked at the mocha coloured hair girl.
( Flashback )
When Kai was a bout to leave, he felt something warm and soft pulling his hand, forbidding him to leave. He turned around only to find the neko-jin gazing at him with tired and sad eyes. Lei had awoken, after all those weeks. Lei looked at Kai, breathing deeply. Kai just stared at Lei like he had just witnessed ghosts appearing before his eyes. His face was pale.
' His eyes, I can see it. The shock …' thought Lei as tears fell out from the corner of her eyes. Kai blinked as Lei released his hand before returning back to sleep.
( End of Flashback )
The Demoralizers looked at each other. After minutes of discussion, the four of them nodded in agreement.
" We've decided Lei." Said Namie finally as Lei nodded.
" We actually wanted to bid goodbye to you. We're leaving for somewhere many people don't know. But since you wanted to leave Japan …" said Asher, trialing off as Salem continued.
" We'll take you with us."
Lei blinked. " Really ?!"
" Yes. Now pack your stuff. We're taking Salem's private airplane." Smiled Edmund as Lei jumped out of bed.
As Namie and Edmund helped Lei to pack her stuff, Asher whispered to Salem.
" Are you sure this is right ?"
" Positive. Don't worry, they'll be alright. Although many things are about to happen." Smiled Salem.
Asher looked at her, opened mouth. He looked as if he had won Godzilla as a prize. Salem glared at him.
" What are you staring at ?" she asked suspiciously.
" Nothing it's just that …. GUYS !!! Salem Talientzev just SMILED !!!!!!!" exclaimed the sea-green haired boy.
Everyone stared at Salem.
" Oh my gawd …" said Edmund as Namie squealed.
" WOW !!!!!! SALEM !!! YOU FINALLY SMILED !!!! I THOUGHT YOU WERE ABNORMAL WHEN YOU DIDN'T SMILE !!!!!" she squealed, hugging the Russian. Lei smiled as she gave the Russian placed her hand on Salem's back.
" Congrats buddie." She smiled as Salem frowned.
While the others grinned and talked about Salem's first smile in 12 years, Lei continued packing her belongings into a bag.
( Lei's POV )
Somehow, I felt things would be better this way. Even if I have to part with the person I love and treasure most. I knew it was wrong to leave Japan with my new friends but I feel relaxed and normal while staying with my new team. Kai wouldn't treat me as the same again anyway after yesterday's incident I guess. Let's see … toothbrush … headphones … clothes …
" Try not to make it so obvious you're running away !" came Edmund's voice from behind as I nodded, smiling. Right, now where was I ? Oh yes ! Wallet … bottle … hey ! Where are my pills ?
" Err … guys, I think I'll need to get my pills." I smiled sheepishly.
" We'll get it for you." Said Namie as they went out, leaving Salem and me alone.
I checked my bag if there was anything I left. Suddenly, Salem handed me something.
" Here." She said as I took it over.
They were two photo frames. One was a picture of the whole team and me, and the other one was Kai.
' Kai, I hope you will understand and respect my decision. I hope you'll forgive me too.' I thought as I put them in my bag and zipped it.
" Don't worry, he will." Grinned Salem as I smiled.
" Hopefully. He always gets suspicious." I grinned too.
Suddenly, the other three team members burst in the room. They're faces were quite panicked.
" Lei !! Hurry !!!! I saw them coming in the entrance !!!!" said Namie as she shoved the pills into my hands.
" Huh ?"
" They're coming !!!!" yelled Edmund as Asher grabbed my bag. Edmund signaled me to jump out of the window and into the tree.
" Hurry ! I can hear them coming !" hissed Salem as I nodded, jumping out of the window as one by one followed.
When all of us had already climbed down the tree, we ran as fast as possible.
' Kai, I'm sorry.' I smiled sadly as we ran out of the hospital grounds and into the forest nearby which I loved.
-
" Well, time to board." Grinned Edmund as everyone grinned too. I was the first to board, followed by Salem then Namie and Edmund.
" Wow …" I exclaimed.
" Well, this is just a piece of cake for ancient Talientzev's successor, right Salem ?" smirked Edmund.
" Shut the fuck up Eddie." Glared the mocha coloured hair girl before sitting beside me.
For some reason, I feel a bit tensed when I sat with her. She was dark, mysterious, but somehow I think she's sometimes kind and caring, in a way though. A bit like Kai, just that the glares from her were much scarier. But the most freakish thing she had on her was, she could read minds. Something like knowing what's gonna happen the next second or minutes although not knowing what will happen the next few days, unless she reads some plots. Namie and Edmund were sitting together. They were talking merrily to each other. When I joined the team, those two were like brother and sister to me. From what I am seeing right now, I thought they looked like a couple, although the fact that Salem keeps telling me Edmund has a lover already. My thoughts drifted to Kai. Tall, cold, sweet and many more. I feel like a total sucker when I couldn't face fate. The fate of Kai Hiwatari treating me like a mental disturbed person.
" Don't worry Lei. You'll get over it in a few days, after we reach. Now get some sleep." Murmured Salem as I nodded.
This is going to be a long year … Kai, sometimes you have to learn to let go …
