《My Witch-Infested Life!》Chapter 8: Rainfall
Advertisement
It's raining.. It was bright as day this morning and now.. I can't see a thing because of this rain.
Good thing I've brought my umbrella..
"You! Stop looking through that window and listen."
"Yes..."
Crap. The teacher's mad...
(whisper) "You should listen.."
I am.. I just looked at the window for 5 seconds.
"So, we're having a pair for this art activity. Hm, the person beside you will be your partner."
Wait..
"Hmm~ We're paired."
Mmm.. This is unexpected.
"I know."
"Why do look dissatisfied."
I am. "I'm not."
"So you want to be paired with me?"
"No."
"So mean~"
....
"Ok. Since it's raining outside. I want you to sketch your classmate's face."
Huh, I'm not sure if I'm good enough.
"Oh! We're going to draw each other."
Why do you always sound excited.
"That means, we need to look at each other properly, right."
"I-I know."
"Start now! You will pass your work to me before lunch."
...
"So.. Who's first?"
"Me. I'll draw first."
"Ok.."
"You should sit properly. I can't draw you if you are slouching.."
You don't need to be that serious...
She looked at me carefully, she's really into this.
"You done?"
"Almost. Hmm.."
Hmm. That's better be good..
"Done!"
Hm?
She showed me the sketch of my face..
That's not me!
"Hey, are you really drawing me?"
"Of course I did.."
"This is not me."
"Hm, I did my best though.."
No. I think you're just bad at it.
"It's my turn now huh.."
"Hm~ Draw me properly..Hey! Why are you not facing me?"
"Hm. I already know your face. I always see it. There's no need for me to look at you."

"You won't be able to draw my face properly!"
She took the sketch pad I was holding.
"Hey, I'm doing my work."
"You won't get this sketch pad."
"Give it back."
This girl is such a pain..
"No."
I won't be able to finish it on time if this keeps on.
"Ok, I'll look already. Give it back."
Tch.
"It's not my fault. You need to be co-operative you know.."
It's not a part of my life..
"Sit properly. I'll draw you know.."
She smiled brightly, she looks cute if she's smiling..
No. What am I thinking.. I need to focus here..
"Are you done?"
"I'm.. done.."
"Ohh! This is great. You got everything copied."
"Not really.."
It's not that amazing..
"Can I keep this?!"
"No. We're supposed to pass this."
"Eh.. I wanna keep it. Please draw another one."
"I said no."
"Mmp."
You can ask others to draw you, it doesn't need to be me.
....
"Pass your works! Time's up. Go have your lunch."
It's done.. I can have my personal space now--
"Key, and Reina. Carry these sketch pads."
Seriously?!
"Yes!"
This is not even exciting.
...
Why am I always targeted..
*sigh.. I can't eat outside, the rain won't stop.
"Where are we eating?"
Wha?
"Why are you here?"
"We're about to eat right?"
"No, why are you here? You're not going to eat with your friends?"
"I thought you'll feel lonely, so I'm with you."
"I am fine. Actually, it'll be much better if I'm alone."
"Is that so.. Hm, ok.."
I'm used to it.. That's what I want after all.
Hmm..
I always buy my lunch on the canteen.. Hm, I think I can save more money if I make my own lunch..

I should start making it tomorrow huh..
...
It's noon already but the rain won't stop.
I hope it doesn't get any worse..
"Yo! So you eat here?"
"Hm? Oh, Nina.."
"You don't want to eat inside the classroom?"
"Too noisy. It's better if I'm outside."
"I see, by the way.. She's looking for you."
"Why?"
"I don't know. I'll go back now."
"Ok.."
Why is she looking for me?
"Oh, I found you."
??
It's her.
"You're done eating?"
"Why are you here again?"
"I was looking for the restroom.."
Hm. 'I found you' I heard that right. I'm not deaf.
"You're not going to enter the restroom?"
"Eh,.. Uhm. Yeah. I was about to."
*bell ringing
"I'll go ahead then."
"Ok..."
.....
"We're going to continue this next time. Your homework will about the respiratory system. Make sure you do pass it to me."
Waah.. That was stressful enough..
I can go home now... *stretch..
"Hey.."
"What?"
"Haha.. Do you have an extra umbrella.. looks like I forgot to bring mine.."
Is that my problem?
"I only have one."
"Hmm.. We can share.."
"Can't you do something about it?"
Wait, that's really weird if anyone sees her walking but not getting soak in the rain..
"You can borrow.. though."
"They all brought a single one.."
Hm...
"We're living together though."
Stop right there please..
"Ok Ok.. We'll share."
This is going to be bad..
....
"Could you move a little bit.."
"Why? You chose to share with me."
"I know but.."
*sigh it'll be more troublesome if she got sick..
"Get closer. So we can fit properly..."
"Sorry.. I'm making it hard for you."
Good thing you know.
Ugh... The wind is getting stronger..
We should stop somewhere for a moment..
"Hey, it's getting stronger let's stay here at one of those stores.."
"You're right.. It's better if we stayed for a while."
....
"*sneezes It's kinda chilly."
She sat on the floor, shivering.
"Here, you can wear my jacket."
"Are you sure? You'll be cold."
"I'm fine. I can withstand something like this..
I gave her the jacket I was wearing..
"It's a bit big..."
"Don't complain."
"I'm not. I like the warmth. Hehe.."
Of course it's warm..
We stayed at the store for few minutes.. It looks like the rain is dying down..
"I think this is good already. Come on."
She's sleeping...
I carried her on my back carefully.. Her face kinda feels hot..
"How can you even sleep here.."
It's just a light rain now. I can carry her on my back.
....
"We're home.."
"You're late, human. What happened?"
"The rain. That's all."
"What happened to Reina?"
"She fell asleep already. She doesn't nfeel well.. I'll just carry her, in her room."
"Good. Then make food for me."
"Ok Ok.."
"Oh!"
She suddenly got excited..
Haaa.. I'm tired. My back hurts..
It's much better if I don't wake her up.. There's also this homework.. Man, I'm tired.
Hm, "Good night."
