~~~~~~~~~{ [ Chapter 6 ] }~~~~~~~~~~



Akira walked out from the Headmaster's office. His face was calm but looking closely, there was a soft smile that were barely noticeable forming on his pale yet pretty face.

Thinking whereas he was about to be frustrated to death by thinking of ways to avoid being pestered by the characters, an opportunity was presented in front of him and that made him feels so lucky.

While walking mindlessly, a cold breeze blows across him from the side making him felt a little chilled. He turned to the side and saw an open area full of plants and flowers, a huge garden.

but, what capture his attention is the the fountain in the middle of the garden with a small sculpture of a baby angel, glowing at the top of it. It gives him a feeling of nostalgia he can't exactly comprehend.

'What was it?', he asks frowning.

Unconsciously, his legs led him to the garden. When he came to his senses, he found himself sitting at the fountain, touching the clear water.

The glowing light that emits from the baby angel's sculpture made him see his reflection on the water clearly.

Akira admired it sincerely.

The cold breeze once again gave him a blow causing his hair to be messed up a little. He was only wearing a white shirt since he remembered taking off the blazer in the office and forgotten to wear it back.

At this time, the starry night was beautiful, the countless stars emerging from the clouds, and the shine it displayed made it fascinating to looked at.

While indulging himself at the scenery above, He didn't even notice the cold breeze opening the neckline of his shirt, revealing the fair skin inside, making Akira even more charming.

The starry night were reflected on the unmatched eyes, yet, somehow those eyes weren't really looking at the sky but goes far beyond that, obscure, and unreachable, something out of the horizon.

And that's what the four young noblemen directly see in Akira's eyes right now while watching him gazing mindlessly.

They have been watching him ever since Akira set foot in the garden. They have been constantly waiting for him since earlier.

It was decided to wait for him in the garden, which is his favourite place in the academy and looking at things right now, they were right about it.

Akira will definitely stopped at this place.

Four pair of eyes stared at the figure sitting in the fountain.

The image of their 'once' childhood friend sitting alone again in the place where they first met him and became friends with him gives them a nostalgic feeling.

Yet, it's been a long time ago, people changes and so are they and person in the fountain.

The cute little sunshine who smiles more in his childhood are now looking tired and dead more than the dead themselves.

What happened?

Where did the little sunshine who smiles the brightest go?

When did things between them and him go awry?

How did he change like that?

Many questions were left unsolved. They have the urges to grabbed their friend and forcefully take out the answers from him, but they always ended up unable to do anything.

Even right now, they wanted to approached him so badly but their feet are stopping them. it's like they don't have the courage to act on it.

They can only watch him on the sidelines. Suppressing the dark emotions urging to come out.

While the four were in the verge of enmity, Akira, where left speechless after finding himself once again staring at nothing.

He sighed softly, face lightening up and a small smile were made it's way to his face.

'......I won't ask for anything else just let me live in this world apart from the plot of the game', for the first time, Akira let his fragile self to show, the brave mask were slowly breaking apart letting his weeping heart to scream freely.

'.....Haa, how absurd, just a while ago i felt so glad and now i'm having a total breakdown', he thought while chuckling softly. '....guess, i somehow take with me my bipolar trait, hahaha'

Akira's gaze soften, he wipe the tears that were starting to fall off and sighed heavily.

He shook his head and stood up. He glance at the sculpture for the last time and went out immediately.

He didn't even noticed the others hiding at the corner, being kept by a huge plant.

"....Did you see all of that?" Dylan was the one to asked first, coming out from the place they were hiding at. The rest followed, eyes still stuck staring at the entrance.

"....There is really something that Akira was keeping from us", said seriously by Jayden. Lucretius nodded, agreeing at Jayden's statement, eyes becoming cold.



"....But how can we know?, What can we do?, we are not part of his life anymore" Khalid stated in a cold voice, the kind and gentle mask he always wore was nowhere to be found, leaving a cold, indifferent and sadist prince in sight.

".......Then let's befriend him again, It's not like we are the ones who pushed him away, he was the one who break the ties with us because of Noah,"

"Jayden, you bastard! Don't involved Noah in to this! He was innocent. The problem here is Akira! He was just being stingy!" retorted by Dylan who was fuming angrily, glaring at Jayden.

".....How stupid can you be?"

"..WHAT?"

"We are interested to Noah while Aki was in love with him. He fell in love first and it is our fault that he hated us by showing interest to Noah," Jayden every words held some truth that made Dylan grit his teeth, unable to retort back.

"We already talked about it. We compromise not fall on that bitch's schemes. don't tell me you let himself got fooled and were already fallen to him?",

"what?"

"What?, are you, dylan? have you fallen in love to that Noah?"

"HECK, NO!"

Dylan shouted, grabbing Jayden's collar harshly. Jayden's mocking look remained, adding fuel to Dylan's anguish.

".....You two, stop it..... there's no point in fighting right now.", Khalid ordered, looking so serious.

It was an order from the crown prince, so Dylan had no choice but to reluctantly let go of Jayden's collar. But he still sending out deadly glares to the other.



"Jayden is right. It's mainly our fault. Let's go and meet Akira. He might still be awake. We need to apologise and reconcile with him before morning."

Khalid suggested and didn't waited for any reply as he began to walked and exited the garden, the other three can only followed him silently.

When they reached their accommodation, they kept having a bad feeling since earlier. They have a feeling that something is wrong from the very start.

Jayden initiated to opened the door, but what awaits them inside made them froze in their place instantly.

Eyes widening briefly before becoming cold.

"......What is going on here?"

Jayden asked coldly.

They were watching several staffs of the academy moving all of Akira's things out of his room.

"ah! good evening young masters!"

A girl staff finally noticed them and immediately greeted them with a huge smile on her face.

".....What the heck is going on here?" Jayden asked again and this time with more venomous voice.

She was taken aback from the cold voice, her smile even faltered slightly but still continues to smile at them. and she happily answered them.

"Young Master Akira will be moved out from here! he'll be transfer to another dorm as per Headmaster's orders!"
