IPOMACA (4)

We've already met a lot of times, I saw him in the entrance by chance, at the long lines of registration, and yet I find nothing about him that pique my sole interest until now. It seemed his very existence never crossed in my mind when we're highschool students.

Come to think of everything, did I even noticed him at the first year?

I think no, not even in slightest thought.

Am I that busy? When I felt his gaze on me, I quickly let aside the thoughts.

"Anyway, do you remember Donatella?"

With the mentioned of certain name, I seemingly got his attention.

He stopped munching, then stared.

Of course he wouldn't forget such lovely name. Donatella Felicia, a year younger than me is a beautiful girl I've ever met in my last year of highschool at San Lou Perad Academy. She is a special sister of mine who's got an interest with this guy back then, as far as I could remember. That girl had a crush on Ventrell. I can even recalls some of the days she were talking about this guy's whole being in front of me, even knowing I have no interest into the subject.

Donatella and Azazel has history to tell.

I know nothing about.

It might be the reason why, just hearing the lovely maiden's name, a certain guy sitting opposite to me reacted as if he's being caught red-handed.

Isn't this getting a little interesting eh?

I do not care though, but we can extract some juices here.

A little sugarcoating would not kill.

"Donatella?"He said.

"Yes, even though we're studying in the same University. We cannot meet each other that much,"I cannot hide the fact how I am saddened with arrangements we had, but this was also another way to open up the old subject. "Donatella's seems busy in these past few days that she forgot to call me or answer all of my messages I've sent to her. Perhaps, you have any news?"

I am worried, yet not.

He avoided eye contact, "I don't know, we don't talk anymore."

"I see..." I whispered, slowly, as though tasting the words in my mouth.

"Are you guys best friends?" He asked out of the blue.

I can feel my lips curved into a warm smile. "No. We are sisters."

If the reincarnations was real, Donatella and I are palm engraved.

We are not just best of friends because we are sisters by soul and heart.

She's my sister and I am hers.

"Sisters not best friends." I corrected, taking a bite at the carrots.

As soon as we finished the meal. We've decided it's better to go at the main hall and it didn't took fifteen minutes for us to arrived. Every students with same of courses starts to fill up the whole place in every corner. We still have one hour before the meetings starts, after signing our attendance names, we pick the seats near of exit, means at the back, faraway from the stage, though it doesn't matter for Azazel and me, and then we sit next to each other with the deafening silence between us. I do not mind anymore. As the people around us are doing of their jobs to fill up our silent atmosphere with whatever's subject they ever had. I took a look around for familiar faces, hoping to fine one and yet failed to see one. The time keeps passing without us noticing it's already thirty minutes passed. Still,

Azazel was being busy on his set world inside his head while listening a music in that headphones, and then me, who's trying to figure out how would I able to keep myself busy and entertained. I do not desire to be bored to death.

For a while, I scanned the main hall in case of seeing a familiar image as well to observed. It was getting crowded and noisy like a wild market, one by one, the students were keep coming and they are adding a lot of carbon dioxide in the air with their boisterous laughs and chats. I started to feel annoyed, it's get irritating and unbearable for both of my ears.

I really don't like crowded places, that's all I can say with past experience.

Ever since I've learned how tiring and annoying within the crowds. I did not wish to be in one any longer. So, in this kind of part, helping myself is so much better rather of losing the patience and make bad decisions. I looked at Azazel for a second before checking the time in my wrist watch at exactly 1:39 p.m. then the organization's department meeting would start at 2:00 p.m, just a little bit more dear Melliza.

Once again, I found myself looking back Azazel and meet those pair of dark orbs.

"What's wrong?"

"Huh?" I did not expect he will talk, of course he will talk my dear, he is alive human being for heaven's sake. So, out of ideas to say, I used the other's people absence. " Do you think this will be one of boring meeting like before?"

"Yes."

"Aw, I want to go home then." I pressed my lips, thinking how annoying it is for me to be here and slowly dying in the boredom. Chang's University was one of the prestigious school in the city, with its being famous and outstanding, I can say the meetings always filled of the serious talks and gravely subjects.

" Where are the others? They will come right? Venice's and Genevie's would be able to show themselves right? Though, there still a possibility they will change their minds, come to think of how about Sander?"

"He will not come." Azazel stated firmly.

"Is that so, well it's Sander we're talking about here." A classmate of ours who's surely has guts no one can match inside the class. I remembered how it was last yesterday where he announced to us, he will take a road trip somewhere and the the young man really did. I am not that surprised when every rich boy here are doing it.

"He's just being lazy." I stared at Azazel and then let out soft laughs, he sounds a bit of jealous who was forced to sit here while other's can go play outside. Azazel turned his head towards my side seeing I'm laughing here.
