Entering inside the class with a yawn, meliana heaped her bag by her desk
Pressing her biometric scan to open her locker
Immediately after doing so, she left the class in search of her tour guide
Dragging her feet boredly through the hall
She soon entered the physiology class where she met face of carama, staring blankly,
Her stance poised with elegance and her face always glittered with unbothered indifference,
Sauntering closer to where she sat , Meliana pulled the chair back and sat opposite to her
Elbows pressed against the desk and palms leaned against her cheeks with that Al too similar smirk, leaning into the desk with her back ridged ,
She looked up at carama, who's gaze was still fixed into empty space
Her short pink hair sweeping against the desk as she grazed her cheeks on them
Picking up carama's hands which layed unmotioned on them and twindling them against hers
Now this forced carama's subconscious mind to snap into full consiousness, looking down in disgust at the Japanese giant who was playing with her fingers and looking up at her in feigned innocence
She immediately pulled her hands away, pressing a thumb against the bottom of her desk, which instantly gave way to a tiny vault
Pulling out a hand sanitizer from it , she stared judgingly at Meliana as she applied it
_leaning up from the desk with a raised brow, Meliana cocked her head up slightly, and sucked her teeth in with a grin
You're really unpleasant to be around, you know that
Standing up from her chair, carama inputed her pin , arranging her stuff in, then looking up to face meliana's earlier comment
She responded cooly, it's a gift, and then glancing in to take full look at meliana's annoyed expression , pushing her chair in , she looked at Meliana who was already glaring In annoyance
Come along now, little miss Japanese, let's finally get this tour over with
Pushing her own chair backwards as she stood, she huffed as she followed behind carama
As they left the classroom together, meliana couldn't help notice that most of the students eyes darted their direction as they left
Walking through the luminous halls , her eyes subconsciously shifting the stance of her tour guide, always straightened like a lamp pole , with steps she could swear carama counted as she walked, almost as if she controlled or something
Noticing her tourist wasn't keeping up with her, carama slowed down and turned back to look at meliana who seemed to be in thought
Of some sort,
Clearing her throat her snap her tourist back into consiousness, which didn't seem to work, she walked closer and tapped her against her head
Blinking into consiousness as she stared back at the low figure of her tour guide, instinctively grabbing her tapping finger and dropping it in annoyance
Let's just get this tour over with
With a sigh , carama grabbed her dropped hand, and turning front with an expression one could've mistaken for mockery , her voice laced as she spoke
Then try to be more focused on the tour then
She said as she continued walking unbothered whether meliana was following or not and this very act did nothing but infuriate meliana more, following behind her grumpily she had already made up her mind of what a snob carama was
Arriving at the 15th hall , they walked up to the door, both stepping their feet on something that resembled a bannok device
As they both awaited the receptors for the scanning, immediately it was done, the door gave way to their arrival
Momentarily leaving a beep after they arrived
Entering the 15th hall, otherwise known as the recreational arena, they were both greeted with a wave of moist atmosphere, coming from the systems installed in
Leading meliana around, she showed her the huge illusion like screen which projected real life images, explaining how it works and the science behind it
Greatly determined to explain it all to her awe struck tourist, turning round to realize meliana's attention wasn't in what was being said
She directed her teaching to something else , drawing meliana's attention to it, walking up to a stage and giving her the hand book, explaining everything in an indelible manner
Walking past the swimming pool and showing her around,
on seeing the swimming pool a huge grin appeared on meliana's face as she pulled her shirt off and ran towards it
But before she could jump into it , she was tugged back at the vest by delicate fingers,
Turning her face back she met the stern gaze of her tour guide, whose finger tips were addressing to a sign which clearly said
NO JUMPING IN
Gritting her teeth as she felt carama's warmth touch her , after she had been ever so repulsed by her own
She turned stiffly, yanking carama off her
A gasp escaping carama's throat as she tripped off her feet , loosing balance, arms shot up as she hoped to hold on to something
Before falling into the pool, back splashing against the water as she dived in , her heart leaving dangerous thumps as it sent shock waves to her body
Leaving her paralyzingly numb
But her mind didn't go to her predicament, no, it went to those shockwaves
They were all too familiar , each shockwave tugged to a memory and they all reminded her of gran-ma ma
Holding her breath as her heart muscles contracted, she allowed herself sink in, hoping to find more of that memory
Meliana watching this unfold couldn't help panicking, mind in a turmoil between deciding whether it was real or carama was faking it
She was sure she heard that carama was quite skilled in swimming
Looking back at carama's sinking figure at the pool, she started pacing frustratingly, biting her nails as she moved
Suddenly all her direction faced to the pool as a tiny strangled voice escaped from it
Melia
A warmth eluding her body, forgetting her previous decision to be distant to carama
Overwhelmed with a protective instinct, she jumped in , swimming deeper and finally grabbing hold of carama
Tightening her grip around her as she pulled her out , heaping her body on the pavement and continuously pressing her hand against carama's chest , applying moderate amount of force
With trembling hands she shook carama as she noticed her eyes twitch, fighting the urge to cry, she shook her continuously , until carama started coughing,
Her face crinkled as she spat out some water,
Meliana felt nothing but to hold her close and apologize continuously, over and over again, seeing carama's drenched clothes and soaked hair,
She felt like profusely and publicly apologising, maybe even going as far to promise to commit senpaku, so to be forgiven
But she didn't say anything of that , fearing it would upset carama more, hoping to overcompensate while she looked at carama's sat up figure, her hair leant down as she coughed
Seeing her clothes dripping with water, meliana took the initiative to take off the sweatshirt carama clung to her body
As she took them off, looking at carama with guilt as she coughed, finally sliding the sweatshirt off, tracing them down as they slid
Taking them and squeezing the water before spreading them on the ladder
Turning back to carama, she caught site of her hugging herself, slightly shivering, but that wasn't what surprised meliana
It was the marks on carama's hands, adjourned with poorly placed bandages, looking down in shock at the perfect A+ student, shivering and decorated in scars and band aids
Even though, knowing it would be wrong to ask she still did, pointing to her hands as she did
"What happened to you", who put those band-aid there"
Carama finally noticing her gaze ,glared up at meliana, covering the marks, slightly consious, as she spoke calmly for someone who had just been previously coughing
It's none of your business, they're my injuries
Meliana soon slowly squatted down, looking at her with gaze softened with pity
Hating that pity lingered stare, carama scoffed and continued, realizing meliana won't quit it
My sister applied the band aids, and the injuries are inflicted, maybe accidentally or not
Sighing a bit , meliana calmed down, at Least for the sake ,carama was better and still her usual mysterious self
Scoffing at meliana's sigh, she stood up, staggering slightly as her head woozed but was immediately held steady by meliana, whose gaze lingered on her,
Well, A bit before carama pushed her hands off her again
Now this , this annoyed meliana but she wasn't going to argue with carama, seeing she wasn't entirely well yet
Walking steady on her own , carama walked to grab her sweatshirt from the dusty ladder, meliana carelessly hung it on
But nonetheless, she was grateful, but still a bit shocked as meliana had helped her out, her own clothes drenched as she actually jumped in to pull her out
But carama couldn't afford to be careless with meliana, who helps someone without wanting something else in turn, looking back at meliana who stood at a spot watching her
Carama knew well she shouldn't trust , trust anybody, but this person just saved her life, feeling a bit guilty for how she had pushed her off
Carama clung her sweatshirt against her shoulder and walked out, the beam scanning her before she went out
But meliana still stood there in disbelief, jaw open and nose crinkled in annoyance, why had she helped that bitch, moving then to the edge of the pool, as she grabbed her flung shirt,
Wearing on the shirt, sauntering out as the system scanned her, turning to go to class
She met face of carama, leaned against the wall with her hands crossed
Immediately meliana came out with her bag clung against one shoulder, carama leaned off the wall and looked up at meliana , her gaze lowering as she muttered,
Thank you
Immediately after saying that she slowly walked off
Seeing her leave, meliana slightly smiled realizing that carama might've been genuine and huffed as she spoke
What a tsundere
