Chapter 4

The next day. . .

As usual during recess, Hillary and Amy will spend their break time in the campus canteen, so it is today.

"Hill, you know? The novel I just bought, turned out to be so romantic, especially the male character, he treats the female character like a princess. Aaa, I'm jealous of that female character," said Amy.

Hillary immediately chuckled and shook her head, after hearing what her best friend said. Yes, Amy is like that, happy to tell Hillary about the novel she just read, like now.

"Hey, can I join you guys?"

Hearing that voice, made them immediately turned their heads, and they could see, Finn who knows since when, has been standing next to Hillary.

"Y-Yes, even happily" replied Amy, nodding her head. However, that made her get a glare from Hillary.

"Thank you," said Finn, with a smile, and sat down beside Hillary.

Hillary immediately looked away, as if she didn't want to see the face of the new student.

"Eum. . . It seems, I want to go to the bathroom first" said Amy, while looking at Hillary and Finn, who sat in front of her.

Immediately Hillary turned to her friend, and glared at her, without saying anything.

"Oh like that, yes it's okay," Finn replied, nodding his head.

"Okay, then I'll go ahead, okay? Hill, see you later" said Amy, who immediately got up from the chair she was sitting on, and just walked away.

Seeing that thing, made Hillary round her eyes, and watch her best friend's back. But in her heart, she started cursing Amy, for just leaving her alone, along with that man, which she thought was strange.

Finn also turned to look at Hillary who sat next to him, and looked at her from the side, "If I may know, what were you talking about earlier? It seems very exciting" he said.

"Talking about the novel Amy just read," Hillary answered flatly, looking ahead.

"Really? What novel?" asked Finn, who looked curious, as he continued to stare at Hillary from the side.

"Romance novel" Hillary replied flatly, and also very briefly.

"It turns out to be a romantic novel" said Finn, nodding his head, and looking away, "Do you also like novels with that genre?" he asked, looking around the canteen.

"No, it's not my favorite genre of novels. After all, I rarely read novels," replied Hillary, who remained flat.

Yes, even though Finn has been friendly to her, but still she looks indifferent, to that new student, as if he has done something fatal to her.

*******************

Hillary stepped her feet alone, to go to her house. Yes, every day Hillary does walk to get to campus, and so does when she returns. In fact, if she wanted she could have taken a taxi, but she was reluctant to do so. Because for her, walking is something that can nourish the body, because it is the same as exercising. Besides, in the city where she lived it was not hot, even though it was daytime, instead the air actually felt fresh.

But suddenly, she immediately stopped in her tracks, when she sensed someone was following her. Slowly, she looked back, and saw a man who was already familiar to her who was standing not far behind her

Seeing that thing, made her confused. Immediately she turned around, and faced the man, "Why are you following me?" she asked, frowned, looking so wonder.

"Because you are mine" replied the man, staring at Hillary, with a look that was difficult to understand.

"Yours? We just met, but you immediately claimed that I was yours," Hillary sneered, rolling her eyes.

"But you are mine" said the man, without taking his eyes off Hillary, "And I came to the campus, just to meet you" he continued.

"What a strange man," Hillary sneered again, rolling her eyes.

But the man was just silent, without taking his eyes off Hillary, as if there was no other object, which attracted him.

"Remember, I'm not yours. Besides, I don't want to be owned by a strange man, like you," said Hillary, looking away from him, as if she didn't want to look into his face.

"Whatever, you want to say anything, but you're still mine" said the man, who was still staring at Hillary.

"But I don't want to, because you're a WEIRD guy," said Hillary.

"And you are mine" said the man.

"It's just your imagination, because I will never, be yours!" said Hillary, pointing to the man's broad chest. Then, she immediately went away, and left the man.

"But you have to know one thing! Namely, you will slowly find out, who you really are" said the man, staring at Hillary's back.

Hearing what the man said, made Hillary immediately stopped her steps, and fell silent for a moment. And now, she began to wonder to herself, what did that man mean?

As for that man, he was silent, and watched Hillary's back.

But before long, Hillary sighed, and resumed her footsteps, without saying anything.

*phone ring sound*

Hillary immediately opened her eyes, when she heard that voice. Immediately she looked around, and found herself in her room.

"It turned out to be just a dream," she muttered, sighing with relief. Then she grabbed her cell phone, which was on the nightstand, and stared at the screen, which contained an incoming call, from Amy's number.

"Amy, what's she calling me?" she said, wrinkling her forehead.

Out of curiosity, she immediately answered the call, and put the cellphone to her ear.
