A few seconds before his bone color claws could crush my neck, I felt a wind that was stronger than that of the kappa. The hand of the person had held the kappa's arm. And hurled him away with much powerful force. Just as the monster was flying uncontrollably, he met him before he could hit the tree, which was his destination. However, he was met at the point of his despair with another heavy punch to the chest.

How unbelievably fast is he? The thought ran through my mind as my eyelid closed in pain.

After quite a while, I opened my eyes. I only heard the noise of a ball hitting the trees. Calming myself, I noticed I was lying on a colorful fabric.

"Hello….." I trailed, scared of how he might react to me. Hearing me, he walked calmly. It was precisely that soft and calm movement that he had unveiled today in the class. It was full of confidence.

Then he opened his beautiful white teeth. He must have assumed that it would make me relax my guard.

"Are you alright? " he smiled as his eyes fixed on my left arm where the monster had struck me. My daisy color fabric had already been torn, and my penchant color skirt was shabby and dirty.

Nonetheless, when he noticed he was staring too much, he bowed and apologized.

"I guess I am fine for now?" I refused to meet his gaze.

"Oh no! He ran away. I don't think he will be bothering you for now." He said positively. He went to his red bag and pulled out a sangria color coat, and he handed it over to me.

"You should avoid allowing people to see that." He was caring. Nevertheless, I was somewhat confused. I suspected he must have at least noticed that a deep wound should have been sealed on that shabby arm, yet he had played dumb about it. What? I question in disbelief in my heart.

"Aren't you asking me, why there was no wound with this brutal appearance of my cloth?" I finally asked.

"There is nothing to ask about when it comes to others' business. If they do not want prying eyes, then there is no need to be pushy." With that, he moved his remaining things and urged me to prepare to leave.

I stood from the fabric weak, lost, and disappointed as well. I mean, I would have loved him to question me about those unimportant things.

"Are you human? Or something utterly different." 

"I don't particularly know what I am. However, it is okay to see me as whatever you want."

"Then why do you transfer from your school," he stopped from his track and mused for a while, then he sighed.

"I wonder." he finally replied.

The place was quiet for a while, and it became awkward. Then, Chi An spoke again, thawing the ice.

"You should go. People might be looking for you." He was concerned, even though he did not intend to tell me about himself.

"What about you. Won't no one look for you?"

"No!" his answer was curt. But it was not laced with the air of disrespect.

I bowed my head, not knowing my genuine desire. Still, when I took my phone from my pocket, I saw 23 missed calls. It must have been when I was busy trying to be alive.

"I will escort you, then." His voice awakened me, then we both left the wood together.

When I got to my dorm, my roommate was already waiting for me in the lobby. She was trembling slightly in fright. Just as she saw me, she hurried over.

"What happened? " she was anxious.

"Let's just talk inside.," I was unwilling to start such a conversation outside. Regardless, my friend, Nuan Mei, was critically observing me as I took the lead into our room.

Just as we entered inside the room. The internal décor was breathtaking with feminine accessories. I sat down while Nuan Mei rushed over to make me a cup of coffee. While she made the coffee, I began to recall the encounter. I saw that calm and confident face of Chi An, yet unconcerned.

"What is he, really?" I muttered.

"What did you say?" Nuan Mei reacted with my mumbling. However, I skillfully brushed her away.

Should I tell her about this wild stuff?

Will she freak out?

Will her better days be over? There was simply a long line of thought in my mind.

While escorting me out, Chi An finally gave in and answered most of my worries. Well, even though he did not further comment on the fact about being human or not. It made me draw a little closer to him.

"You ask too many questions," recalling what he said now, his voice rang in my heart.

"Well, won't you at least answer a little, please?" I pestered respectfully.

"Well, my former school suck at rugby. They say I take it too seriously that they could not keep up with me. In fact, they said I was no human simply because my agility far surpassed theirs." Chi An spat out.

"What is the name of your former school, and what was it like?"

He looked at me in surprise, trying to understand why I was so interested in a trivial topic.

"My formal school was Sha Tin university. They were offering the relevant courses, and they were good with some sport. However, I was not really good at their social ladder and political structure. So, I did not know enough. I was immersed in my training." He whispered. You could feel his melancholic voice like he was reminded how it used to be.

"I will support you!" I declared.

"No! You don't have to do all that to repay anything. I did what I had to."

"Then, you will allow me to do what I want to as well.." I retorted, not willing to back down.
