CHAPTER 6

CONFRONTATION

♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡

I woke up alone in my room completely dressed. Leo didn't come home.

It's been three days since the day Jane confronted me and I've been attending school as orders from the Heathly family.

I got up and change my clothes, ate my breakfast and headed to the school.

"Good morning Selene!" I turn and Doe greeted me. "Good morning Doe." Doe Green is my first girl friend. She's a very nice and a bit introvert so we match up to hang out.

"What's with the sad face?"

"Huh? Ugh... No... It's nothing."

"By the way! I've been meaning to ask but don't you actually know James?" She pointed to James who was playing basketball with other classmates. I shook my head. "I really don't know who... It confuses me cuz I don't actually have a good past..."

"I'm sorry." She held my arm. "Don't be! It's all in the past... It's just that no matter how much I want to remember, it doesn't work... Not even a bit."

"I think you shouldn't be forcing yourself too much. It would come to you at the right time."

"Thanks, Doe."

James turns to us and smiled waving. "I think he's into you." We waved at him as he signalled for us to wait for him. "How'd you say that? I think he's just friendly."

"Neh. I think he likes you since he saw you days ago. We're in the same class last year so I can tell."

"You observe everyone sharply don't you?" She was wide-eyed then smiled. "I guess you're right. I'm not into cliques like other people."

"Well me too."

"Thanks for the wait guys!" James panted as he got to us. "I'll just go to the toilet so can you guys go ahead?" Doe started running off. "What's with her?" He asked me.

"I actually am not sure." I remained watching Doe get smaller in my view. "Should we get going?" James asked.

"Ah... sure."

"Isn't she Leo's P.A? I wonder where Leo is!" I heard girls talk a little distance from me. "I heard in some fan groups that Leo's out of the country."

"Is he?"

I wish I'd know myself where he is but I don't and I am not supposed to ask anything. He IS still my master for the remaining... 25 days.

"Are you okay Selene?"

"Huh?" I turned to James who had a worried face. "I was asking if you were alright?" I smiled at him."Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?" He rubs his forehead before returning to me again. "No particular reason."

"Uhm James..."

"Yes?"

"I want to ask you since the first day why you act like you know me? I've been wanting to ask you actually." He was startled then smiled. "I guess you really forgot it eh?"

"I guess. I dunno. That's why I want to hear if you're sure I'm the Selene you were talking about."

"Hmm... Let me think. You should have three dots on your back shaped like a triangle."

"What?! How did you?" He smirked cutely. "You told me that Selene when we were young. And you used to call me Jamjam and I call you Lenlen."

"Really? Cute nicknames." I giggled. "No way! They sound completely girly!"

"But you still agreed to hook up in that name... Jamjam?" I chuckled as he looked half-pissed half-blushing. "And you also..." He paused with a sad face replacing all the fun emotions in a split second. We stop in the hallway as students continue passing the rooms. "What? Also, what am I?" I questioned his unfinished statement.

"Nevermind. I don't think it's even right to tell you when I'm not sure you're the same girl. Let's go?" He started walking to the stairs and deep inside there was this weird sensation that wants to know what it was. I jogged and stopped him halfway the stairs.

"Seriously just tell me."

"Ugh... I said forget it, Selene." He turned around but I pulled his arm. "James? Tell me?" He sighed before turning. "You won't stop unless I tell you will you?" I nodded. "Okay fine. You... I mean the Selene from before said she'll be my bride and stuff. I guess I held on to those childish words. But don't worry, you don't need to be pressured or anything. Let's just go or we'll be late." He pulls his arm and continued walking. I look at my hand and guilt filled me.

Why? I'm not that Selene right?

I just feel this weirdness because I forced him to say something right? That's all right?

Classes began and whenever I look at James' back since he was three seats diagonal from mine in front, I would always see his face trying to look in my direction. If only I could know if it was me or not.

But to tell a person honestly, ever since my parents were killed, they said I had a psychological trauma making me shut and seal my own memories when I was a kid so maybe... Was it me?

"Help!"

I blinked multiple of times hearing a voice from far away.

"Help!"

A child's voice coming somewhere. I couldn't remember anything that happened next as everything turned pitch black.

Fire engulfs the place and the house were crumbling and a little boy and girl crying as they stare at the mad flames. "Help!" They screech to the top of their lungs. "Selene! Selene!"

I open my eyes and a familiar face appears close my face as I see him clearly. He was squeezing my hand close his cheeks. I could feel his warm breath near my face. "James?" He stood up getting closer. "Are you okay Selene?!" I nodded. "You scared us, girl!" I turn to my left and Doe was sitting at the other side with a worried look. I sat up and soon realise where I was. "Infirmary? What happened to me?"

"You suddenly collapsed in the middle of class. Here" I grab the water Doe passed on. "Thanks."

"Honestly girl, are you ok? Is this related to Leo?" My hands automatically grip on the glass as I look on my hands. "N-no. This has nothing to do with him. I just lack sleep... I think."

"Ok. Anyway, while you were out, the class talked about the upcoming camping next week. You think you can come? If you don't come then I'm not going too." Doe pouted. James and I chuckled. "Well... Sure thing. I can come."

"That's good." I look at James and he was smiling warmly. I just replied with a smile back.

I still feel guilty when I see his warm eyes gazing at me. I really need to talk to him to know about that Selene from before and... I need to tell Leo how I feel before time runs out.
