Chapter 4: Encounter


Narrator's POV:

"Gahhh... Oh my head... I thought my brain flew outta my skull..." Jonathan mumbled and perked his head up to find a familiar purple shade.
Y-YOU!" What are you doing here?" Jonathan exclaimed
"W-what? What do you mean? I'm a student. I study here? Why do you ask such a weird question?" Jules stuttered
"But you were at my house moment ago! And don't lie, you were standing there and give me back my locket!"
"You're insane! Don't come near me!" Jules backed off , terrifying of  the person standing in front of her
"Then tell me who you are!" Jonathan took a step and tried to reach her with his hand.

But that only make her frighten her more as she turned her feet and started running off  and disappeared at the corner. Jonathan still standing there, shocked and realized what he have just done. The sun shines down , the wind caresses his face but he feels like time just stops. He felt numb. His thought are tangled in a mess, his face just stiff and he stood frozen at the spot.

'Did I just scream at her? Why did I do that? Because I mistook her to someone else? B-But they looked exactly the same?!! But if she wasn't the girl I saw this morning, then I may have been at fault for screaming at stranger."
Jonathan sighed. He has never screamed at stranger, not to mention accusing them right at the spot.  Brushing a hand through his brown tousled hair, he hoped somehow he never came across that girl again. It'll just make everything worse and absolutely awkward at some point. And sure he would apologize with an reasonable explanation but now he think about it, there's a slim chance that they will meet again. Surprisingly, the stress come off a bit and he stops worry about that situation.

All of a sudden, a hand reached out and grabbed onto his shoulder. Jonathan cringed and turned to find curious eyes staring back at him. A male, whose height just overshadowed him, blonde undercut, chiseled face with slight tanned skin. He wore a white shirt with black tie, along dark blue vest and gray trousers. But what stand out most about him are his crimson eyes. They are charming and curious but a bit weird to be honest.

"Um... Hello? Dude? Are you there? " He waved his hands
" Oh, sorry. Just spaced out a bit. You were saying?" Jonathan blinked and looked up
"I was asking if you know where the notice board is. The ceremony ended and they told us to look up our schedules through the board. I'm new here so I really don't know my way around" He smiled friendly
'The speech is already over? That was fast' Jonathan thought " I'm new too. I'm not sure where the board is but I can look for it. I also want to find my class too."
"Then let's go together! I'm Max! What's  yours?" Max exclaimed cheerfully
"Jonathan. Sure, we can look for it together." Jonathan shrugged
"I like you! But you seem a bit quiet and lonely. Let's be friends!" Max jumped onto Jonathan to give him a bear hug.
"Sorry to break it to you, I'm just NOT interested." Jonathan emphasized the word 'not' while trying to pull himself of Max due to hating body contact, not to mention his body is a bit too firm not to feel like hugging a tree.
"Oh come on! Why not?"  Max literately whined at the sentence
"Fine. If I be your friend, will you let me off? I'm like floating above the ground" Jonathan mumbled
"Yes!! You finally accept to be my friend" Max hugged him even tighter and spinned him around
"Okay. Put me down so I don't get jetlagged" All the spinning starting to make Jonathan feel sick
"Oh right, sorry, got a little too excited." Max put Jonathan down "Normally I don't have many friends, not to mention now I'm in new school, it got a lot harder." He looked away, like a sad little man. Jonathan sighed. For a friendly guy like him, he thought Max would be a magnet to people. 'Turned out being too friendly doesn't get you much friend either'
"But I'm your friend now, so I guess you won't be alone or something" Jonathan scratched his head
And he just truly regretted that sentence after being suffocated in another Max's bear hug before they both walked along the buildings to look for the notice board.

Jules's POV:
Gasping for air, I leaned against the wall for some breathers. I've ran quite far, and it seemed like the boy didn't chase you at all.
'What a creep! What kind of guy screaming at a girl whom he had never met before? Wait, but he claimed to have known me... Maybe I've met him sometimes ago but didn't have any memory of it? I mean, I do have a brain of a goldfish so I hardly remember faces if I only meet them once. But he said moment ago, so it's like 2-3 hours? But I was eating breakfast at that time!? Gahhh... why am I thinking about this. It's such a headache'

I slid down the wall. My ragged breath has become more even, heartbeats have slowed down. 'I shouldn't run that much, it is definitely not good for my blood pressure, not to mention I have anemia' I gave out a sigh, feeling the soft grass under my finger. It glittered beneath the sunlight, so majestic. But then, a pair of leather brown boots stepped into my view.
"Hey darling, ya okay down there? Ya as paled as a zombie! Need my help with that hun?" a hearty feminine voice rang up.

My head perked up to come across a lovely figure. Smoked topaz curls, oval face, full lips, high cheek bones and straight nose. Beautiful caramel skin and breath-taking pair of emerald make me feel like standing in the forest on a sunny day.
"He-ll-o? Ya still there, doll?" Frowning, her eyebrow raised
"Oh, I'm fine. Thank you for asking" I smiled, slowly standing up
"Ya sure are one girl with manner. But ya didn't look too fine. How 'bout I take ya to the infirmary, huh?" Her concern eyes peered at me
"No, it's really okay. I'm just a bit tired" I chuckled "Also pardon me, but is the school ceremony over already?"
"Oh that, it ended like ten minutes ago, hun. The principal is really thoughtful not to keep his students under this terrible heat to listen to boring speeches. But that damn heat is nothin' compare to him!" She daydreamed "Ah, I haven't introduced myself, silly me. The name is Louis Moretti, but Louis is fine darlin'. And I'm half  Italian."
She gave out a hand and I took it " Hi, I'm Jules, Jules Paddington. Nice to meet you" We shook hand.

"So Jules, do you know where's the notice-board? I heard that's where we learn our schedules and teachers or something." Louis asked
"I'm not sure but we might as well look for it. I don't know about you but I really don't want to late for classes on my first day." I shrugged
"Then let's go look for it together. I mean two is better than one, right hun?" she cheerily said as she dragged my hand across the yard "oh and silly girl, we don't have to study on the first day!"
As I followed Louis, my thought trailed back to the previous male ' I wonder who he was looking for?'
