Chapter 11: Secrets

Satu was walking down the corridor where Kaleas room was she hadn’t come out yet and it was almost 1pm he knocked on the door three times rather quietly it was opened straight away and Kaleas head popped out she blocked his view into the room with her body “yes?” she seemed pretty annoyed about being disturbed her eyes were the dark grey they became when she was in a mood “I thought I should come and ask if you want some breakfast, what you doing?” he smiled politely she eyed him up and a small grin appeared on her face “why don’t you” she paused a painful look spread across her face “never mind, don’t worry about me I'm just thinking don’t disturb me” she closed the door in his face, what was wrong this time? She was being moody again he wandered off to tell Nate.
a few days later Satu was out on his way to the shops to get some food seeing as Kalea hadn’t emerged from her room since the day she decided to enter that room he looked up at the building he knew which room would be hers he knew he wouldn’t be able to see in, it was over 80 floors up but he could see that her curtains were drawn, the only black amongst the white windows that was odd, when she was thinking she always had the curtains open, she liked to look out at the city. He was on his way out of the shop, he had put on a white top and jeans to look a little less like a giant living, breathing care-bear he noticed a figure following him out of the shop, he knew he had to go down some dark alleys on his way back and it was already getting dark, oh well he just had to carry on, what else could he do? He walked hastily down the alley when he felt a cold hand touch his shoulder and spin him around, he took in the black eyes and rather scary grin “boo!” it was Kalea why was there a slightly nasty glint in her eye and the way she smiled her face flinched like before when she was in her room and she leaned away from him slightly “sorry” she laughed rather nervously “let me help you carry the bags, you just looked a little lonely so I thought I should come out and help you, I saw you in my mind” she grinned he looked at her out of the corner of his eye, trying not to let her notice him studying her it seemed like she was scolding herself in her head, she was scowling and biting her lip “are you ok?” he asked quietly, he didn’t want to set her off in a major mood again “yeah I'm fine, hey look ill take these back” she lifted up the bags “you’ll just have to try and keep up with me” she laughed and vanished, it was hard to believe that someone could move that fast, so fast you couldn’t see them he stood still and looked dead ahead, hadn’t she said she saw him by himself? Then why had she been stalking him around the shop? Something wasn’t right here, maybe she really was going loopy unless it wasn’t her that had been stalking him, he shook his head trying to clear his mind before slowly walking back to his home.
