《Song For Two (Athanasia × Lucas)》Chapter 2
Advertisement
That was the first thing that came in my mind when I saw him, that guy!
I finally snapped out of my thoughts when I felt Jennette holding my hand. I smiled and looked at her, ignoring the stare of the guy with red ruby eyes.
"Athy, I missed you so much, how was your summer break with Uncle Claude?" She asked me and I giggled, ah so cute!
"It was fun, how about you? How's uncle doing?" I asked and she smiled, aww good thing Jennette is having fun with her father these days
"Hey Athanasia" my eyes settled on Ejikiel. Ah, handsome. Ha!? Oh god Athy what are you thinking!?
"Yo Ejikiel! How you doin'?" I asked him and he just chuckled, Jennette pulled me closer and we started walking to the main entrance of the academy.
I don't know why but my eyes roamed around, trying to find the guy with those red ruby eyes, I'm still confused, the song.. is it really true?
I mean, it's an old myth that elders say to us, plus why aren't they making it a topic for our lessons--
AH. I WAS WRONG. I glanced at our teacher, AGAIN. She was smiling widely because she just finished writing on the board for our lesson
aaahhh!! Gosh, help me. I don't like talking about this topic, I keep on remembering that guy!
I shut my eyes and looked at my desk, suddenly I heard the door opening and girls started to whisper.
"Oh, are you the new student?" I heard Ms. Adler, our teacher. Oh new student? Who can that be--
AH!! NOOO!! save me, w-why is he here!? The guy with red ruby eyes is here! He looks cute when he wears our uniform-- WAIT ATHY NO!

I shook my head and looked down again, He didn't notice me yet, AH FOR PETE'S SAKE, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING!?
"Yea, so Hello I'm Lucas Relish." He said, well his tone sounds lazy! What a guy. I secretly rolled my eyes.
"Well Mr. Relish, since it's your first day, I'll let this issue go, but please don't be late again. Sit beside Ms. Obelia" My eyes shut open, with shocked all written on my face. I finally met his eyes.
The lazy look on his face now looks shocked. I glanced at Ms. Adler, she looks clueless and pointed me.
"Ah sorry, that is Ms. Obelia." Lucas nodded and walked to a seat beside me. I felt like there wasn't enough air inside the room when he sat beside me.
I sighed, well it's a good thing they don't call me Princess. They used to call me Princess everywhere I go, so I asked Daddy to make them stop calling me Princess, I want a normal life here in the academy!
I suddenly heard someone chuckling, I quickly looked at Lucas and I saw him trying to hide that small smile from me.
Hmph! If I knew this would happen--
"So let's get started with the lesson, shall we?" Ms. Adler smiled and she suddenly opened her palm and some weird language suddenly appeared right infront of us.
"This," she pointed at the language thingy infront of us "is what they said where the myth came from, long long ago they said that we were created as one but got seperated, and for us to find our soulmate, God gave us a gift, it is a song, a very unique song for each and everyone of you." She smiled and closed her palm, and the weird words infront of us earlier disappeared.

"Don't you find it weird when you start humming or just remembering a certain song but you don't know where you heard it." I gulped, I remember that day when I met Lucas.
"Personally, if this is true not everyone gets their happy ending." She said while smiling but I can see pain in her eyes. "I once met a guy who was humming the same song I was humming ever since I was a child. We both looked surprised and confused at the same time, since those days were the days that everyone believed the myth of songs for lovers. We tried dating." She chuckled lightly, I suddenly felt sad. Did something happen--
"But I guess the song wasn't enough for a person to stay, isn't it? He found someone new and he totally forgot about our song. I started questioning God, why did he create such song if we don't end up with our soulmate?" We were all silent, no one dared to asnwer, she smiled and opened her palm again, I saw flower petals and she was playing with it. She's using her magic.
"Well, I guess I finally find out the answer to my question that's been bothering me for a very long time. Because as time flies and we evolve more and more, learn new things, the old myth, we will start to forget about it, if we don't believe at this certain myth, we will also forget the song that was meant for us to find our soulmate." I gulped and I glanced at Lucas who was just staring at Ms. Adler
"In short, we start to forget and create a new path for us. But still, I recently had a new song in mind, maybe. Just maybe, when your so called soulmate finds a new one, you'll have a new song, because there's someone better for you." She smiled and closed her palm, the flower petals are now gone.
"Well, it is a myth, we don't know if it's true or not. Hahahaha! Now, let's talk about some facts about this myth, shall we?" She clapped her hands, and we just nodded.
"Fact 1 - They say we got seperated because it's a punishment for us." I raised an eyebrow, so is this a punishment? "Fact 2 - Sometimes, your soulmate is the complete opposite of you" she chuckled and openend her palm again, and now she's playing with some leaves? Where is she getting all of those weird stuff seriously!?
The lesson finished and I stretched my arm, finally-- my eyes widened. I forgot I was beside Lucas!
"Y-You. The song you were humming--"
I heard him chuckle, and he looked at me. My blue-- wait my so called diamond blue eyes met his red ruby eyes
"So what do you mean? We're soulmates?" I scoffed and pushed him away.
"No way--" I suddenly felt uneasy. Ah no what's happening-- everything went black after that.
