6 Speechless

Kira narrowed his eyes as he looked at the familiar black cap. He looked at her as if he was scrutinizing every bit of her, trying to confirm if he really was that ghost ninja girl. He looked at her long black hair which looked exactly the same as the ghost girl's. Thinking about her small frame and her ability to climb, Kira was sure that it was her. After all, this was the only girl who had the guts to ignore him like this.

However, Kira was not the type to rush and attack without confirming the evidence. He wanted to confront her at that very moment but he stopped himself.

"Okay, see you in class." He then said with a friendly tone while the girl, who was still busy stuffing food in her mouth, simply glanced at him as she responded with a slight nod. Her reaction once again made Kira smirk before he turned back.

Just you wait squirrel, I will make you fall head over heels for me in no time...

When Kira jumped down, his expression was serious. It was as if he was cooking up something in his mind while Rei, who was observing him, just grinned.

"I wonder what happened up there," he murmured as soon as they left the rooftop and Kira suddenly halted and looked at him.

"That video, did you check it? I believe that squirrel girl is the same as that monkey who jumped on me yesterday," he said and Rei almost choked.

"Cough… couch… did you just call your future fiancée 'squirrel'? Do you mean the cheetah you were talking about was also her?!" While Rei was looking at him with wide eyes, Kira just glared at him.

"So you still didn't check it, huh. You-"

"Wait, easy! I actually thought that you were just telling some prank yesterday so I didn't check it out. Haha."

"Rei, you…"

"Relax. Don't worry. I have it with me. I can check it in five minutes."

As soon as the two reached the private room where they usually stayed during their lunch breaks, Rei started checking out the video and as expected, Kira was right. All the details about this ninja girl were exactly the same as Zeri Kim.

When Kira finally confirmed that it was her, an evil smirk flashed across his lips. He was so giddy that he couldn't wait to go and confront her but unfortunately, an emergency occurred and he had to go home after lunch.

The next day…

Zeri was running with all her might towards the stairs as if her life depended on it. The bell had rung a while ago so she was running while praying that she would still make it in time. When she finally reached the corridor, she was about to breathe in relief but to her dismay, she saw her teacher's back already entering their classroom.

Ahh! No! I still didn't manage to make it on time. What should I do now?!

Zeri felt like she was doomed but she still slowly moved towards her classroom, preparing herself for the worst when luckily, the teacher suddenly stepped out of the classroom to receive a call.

Seeing this, Zeri celebrated because she escaped the troublesome punishment she was about to receive for being late. She then quickly, yet cautiously, entered their classroom as soon as the teacher turned her back and she walked straight towards her desk like a ninja. Of course, due to her fast paced morning marathon, Zeri was exhausted. She was heaving as she tried to catch her breath and sweat was flowing all over her face down to her neck. Even though she was born with an athletic build with an amazing stamina, running almost five kilometers in such a pace would still, of course, exhaust her.

She was panting heavily as she wiped her sweat when she noticed someone getting closer to her. She sensed it was a man so she instinctively reacted. She remained unmoving as she continued to look down, as if she was being overly cautious about the approaching danger. But for some reason, that someone simply stood before her desk without doing or saying anything, causing Zeri to crease her brows with curiosity.

Meanwhile, Kira, who approached her, was planning to unleash another lethal weapon that never once failed to attract a girl before. However, the Squirrel didn't even raise her head to look at him. She clearly noticed his presence so why the hell is she not raising her face up?

Once again annoyed with her lack of reaction, Kira bit his lip as he bent down before he slammed his hands on her desk, causing the girl to raise her face reflexively and look at him.

Kira was getting impatient. He wanted to know why his grandfather chose this girl in the first place. That was why he thought that he must take this girl home as soon as possible so he could go and confront the old man and make him spill the beans. His grandfather actually told him that he would not tell him his reason, unless he succeeded in taking her home with him without forcing her. This absurd order from the old man was making him impatient and at the same time, really curious.

Tch! Why does this girl keep covering her face with that annoying hair of hers? Was she purposely trying to look creepy? I can't even see her face clearly, for heaven's sake… and what the hell's with that blank look of hers?

A while ago, Kira had a lot of things he wanted to say but as soon as Zeri Kim looked at him, he couldn't help but fall speechless. He still couldn't believe the way she looked at him. He still couldn't believe the way this girl was getting on his nerve.

This unsexy creature…
