Chapter 3 - Three

Everything went well as the class finished and it was time for lunch.

"Raia, since you don't know anyone from here, do you mind joining us for lunch?" Zb Asks her.

"Who's that?" 

"Yes, why is she with them?" 

Raia heard some whispers across the corridor as people were looking at them, rather glaring at her.

"Is there something wrong with my face?" She asked the three while they were walking their way to the cafeteria, which she didn't know where.

"Let them be; they're just jealous because you're pretty," Zb said to her as she just nodded.

Raia feels very uncomfortable with the way the people were staring at her, especially the girls who were glaring at her like she did some crime.

"Are you sure that it was okay for me to tag along with you?" Acantha asked them as she was left with the two.

"I don't see any problems with it," Silas answered coldly as they were waiting.

"What about AG?" She asked as she looked at Zb.

"Oh, he's more than okay, and please do call me Zaimon or Blu, as the Zb sounds a little weird for me, and I think Aqua also prefers it that way," he said, which made Raia frown at him.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to offend you by calling you by your Initial names," she said as she looked at him.

"Oh, no. Not that we're offended, but we were used to being called just Zaimon and Aqua," Zaimon explained to her.

If that's what they want her to call them, then so be it; besides, it's their names anyway.

Aqua looked at them and it seemed like he just ordered them some food, but where were they?

Raia looked at him as he looked back at her, like he was asking if she was looking for something.

"The food?" she asked as she looked at him innocently.

"Oh, sorry, the food will be served here," he said as he looked at the others.

"Can I ask you some questions?" I looked at them as I looked around to see if someone would hear us or not.

"What was it?" she looked at Silas, who was now looking at her.

"Go on," Zaimon said as he also looked serious.

"I just wanted to ask about the teacher that you mentioned awhile ago. I forgot the name you said but she was wearing a dog mask," I said as I looked at them and they looked at me as they sighed.

"That's teacher Casilda," Silas answered her.

"Teacher Casilda? Isn't she the teacher who died and was found in the classroom that we are a while ago?" Aqua asked as he was looking at the two with confusion on his face.

"I thought you already knew about it. Gosh, How stupid I am thinking you know anything about what was going on in our class when you're mostly sleeping the whole time and didn't ask any questions about our school during break," Zaimon said to his brother as he put his hand on his face.

"Why did you ask about her? Are you one of her relatives?" Aqua said, which he received a slap at the back of his head from Zaimon.

"No..." I said as I looked at them while shaking my head.

"Idiot!, if she's her relative, then she should have known that she was dead already," Zaimon said as he looked at his twin and glared.

"Why do you ask about her?" Silas asked her and Raia looked at him.

"I saw her awhile ago, and we even had a class with her awhile ago," I said as I looked at their faces and saw the shock on their faces, well, except for Sila, who doesn't have any emotions on his face.

"What do you mean? You keep on saying that we had a class with her, but that's impossible... How could we have had a class with her when she was dead?" Aqua said as he looked at her like what she said was impossible.

"I can see dead people and dream someone's death," I said as I looked down, as I knew they wouldn't believe me, just like my parents.

"There are some people who also told the same thing as you said about teacher Casilda." she looked at Silas when he spoke.

"Yes, If I remember it too. There was also some student who said the exact thing," Zaimon said as he looked at her.

"So you believe me?" I asked as I looked at three of them.

They were about to answer when someone arrived with the food that Aqua ordered.

I looked at the table and it seems like Aqua ordered so much food.

"Aren't these too much?" I asked as I looked at them while they started to eat.

"No, this is actually like a welcome celebration for you," Aqua said as he winked at her.

"Now, let's go back to your question," Zaimon said as they were looking at her as the atmosphere changed.

"We do believe you; it's just that..." he said as he sighed as he looked at her.

"It's just that the other student who saw her died in this school too; some of them hang themselves, and some jump from the classroom window." Silas was the one who finished Zaimon's word as he looked at her.

"What?" She asked as she looked at them.

"The students who saw teacher Casilda killed themselves too," Silas continued as he looked at her reaction.

She didn't answer him, as she could feel something cold.

"And how about what you said that you can dream about people's deaths?" Aqua asked me as I was still looking at my food, or rather, staring at my plate.

"Not literally; I dream of how they died. I dream of people's deaths. Well, I dreamed about my parents too but they didn't die. That makes me feel like those people who I only knew were not my family really died the way I dreamed it," I said as I started eating my food.

"That was awful," Aqua said as he grimaced at what she said.

"I know, but I can't control it," I said. I only told them that I can see dead people, and they seem not to realize what happened awhile ago at the gate where I talked to a ghost.

"What about the one that you said ago?" Silas asked, which made me look at him.

"What do you mean?" I asked as I took the juice that was near me.

"You said that we have someone with us and even talked to him," Silas said, as the two seemed to be confused at what he was saying.

"There's actually another person I wanted to ask," I said as I put the glass on the table.

"Do you also happen to know a boy your age who has long hair and was wearing glasses? His eyes were black and his hair too; he looks really thin," I said as I described the man that I saw with them awhile ago.

"It seems like you are talking about the former student council president," Zaimon said as he looked at her.

"Jeremi was killed here in their office here in school," Silas said as he took a sip from his glass.

"You forgot to mention he was killed brutally," Aqua said as he looked at her.

"It seems like the culprit really hates him that much," Zaimon said as he sighed.

"What happened to the culprit?" I asked as I could really feel something was wrong.

"They never found the culprit, but their suspect was his best friend," Sila said as his eyes passed her shoulders.

I looked at where he was looking and I saw a man who was sitting alone in the corner; he looked an outcast here in this school.

"But why did they suspect him?" I asked as I looked at the boy who was still there.

"They found some suspicious things in his house, but because it wasn't enough... they freed him," Silas said.

I suddenly feel the winds becoming colder and I feel dizzy.

"Are you alright, Raia?" Zaimon asked her worriedly.

But before she could even answer him, the lights turned off, and some student shrieked in fear.

"Damned, where's my phone?" she heard the three curses.

But I couldn't move my body as I could feel something behind me, and I could feel its hands on my shoulder.

I feel my body paralyzed as that person keeps moving behind me.

As much as I wanted to shout, it will only let it know that I could see and feel it.

I heard some people panicking, and there was an eerie sound that could be heard.

Until there was a very loud shout that came from far from them.

"What happened?"

"Who shouted?" 

"What's going on?"

Raia heard them say.

The light suddenly turned on and another shout echoed through the place.

And when they looked at where they heard it, their eyes widened at what they saw.
