Days after the death of grandma, I still have not accepted reality. My friends have been playing at home ever since. I feel so lucky, to have been ostracized in my neighborhood before but here I have a good friend.
Aunt Lily has been back to work since two days ago, she said, work can distract her from the sadness. He still looked gloomy, almost a week he moping in the room, until a man of aunt's age came to visit home. I was surprised to find out that it was one of the teachers at my school, even though I didn't follow her class.
That guy's called charlie, he asked me to call him that .
Somehow aunty can meet him, or indeed their relationship has been a long time only I do not know.Karna as I remember when the funeral, charlie is around the aunt.
well, after that thrilling night visit, auntie looked a little excited and started working the next day.
I asked Christian if he knew Charlie, he just answered "yes" without telling him more. Because he's not a kepo person, I didn't ask him the details even though he was very curious.
Today, after school, my friends and I plan to travel to Lake Chena, one of our favorite recreation spots in the north pole, the place is open all year round and is suitable for children.
Lake Chena has two distinct personalities: Lake Park and River Park. Both parks were created at the same time that a landfill dam was built by the Army Corps of Engineers in response to the devastating Chena River floods in 1967. The dam controls an area of river flow that is supposed to flow freely into Fairbanks.
we chose the lake park, because oliver, connner and bill were planning to go fishing. Actually I'm afraid, because alaska is home to grizzly bears, plus the lake chena directly adjacent to the wilderness. But then the isobel reminds me that I'm half a vampire, and that fact makes me happy.
On the ground of the camp consisting of 45 tents, apparently not only we were there. Many north pole residents enjoy a weekend at the lake, along with their children. And more surprisingly, I met aunt Lily and charlie in one of the tents, but I pretended not to see her, afraid she was embarrassed.
enjoy a beautiful night with snowy floors, and clear skies cloudy. We looked at the green and blue aurora borealis in the sky, the moon looked like it had eyebrows.
"tell me, how's your relationship going?", Megan starts looking for information.
I'm pensive, what I have in mind right now is how my mother is, I haven't been able to contact her. I'm afraid something bad happened to her, and want to catch up to new york. but John assured me that he was looking for my mother's whereabouts.the color of our apartment turned out to be empty since a month ago.
"arable?" grace patted my shoulder. I glanced at her at a glance.
"well" I replied gloomily, megan misinterpreting my expression.
"why? did you break up with christian?" asked curiously, bill muttered something about women always happy to gossip, even though I was in a mood of mourning.
"keep it quiet, don't you want to know too?" megan yelled irritated.I laughed amusedly, megan was PMS, so she was a bit sensitive.
"but I have compassion, "bill replied with glaring eyes, "the angel is mourning, and you are still thinking about your gossip".
" let's go" I interrupted them, bill is famous for commenting on people. Can until tomorrow morning if left to argue with megan.
"i'll answer your interrogation meg, just ask",
megan smiles winning, "you are indeed my good friend", she kisses me on the cheek at a glance, I smile. Megan is actually a very caring friend, but she does like to gossip.
"do you have a special relationship with that conservation young man?" megan asked whispering. Grace, olivia and Hannah inching closer curiously.
"no" I replied casually "why?"
"do you not know who he is?" megan's eyes widened twice, I was astonished.
"who is he?"
"he's the head of the sausage at our school, my God, you don't know Noa Brown?" megan's voice rises because of growling.The others only mangosteen allow megan.
"she's also the winner of the alaska cover magazine you know" Olivia added.
" Really?" now I'm getting more curious as to how famous Noa is on the north pole.
megan fanned her hot face, "you're really not up to date".
I chuckled, my sadness slowly evaporating with that astounding information, it was fitting that Christian was so jealous.
" i'm just friends with Noa, nothing more."
"really?" megan said, "can you introduce me to her, Pliss"
"i can't promise, it's not my domain meg, you know", Megan got lethargic, but then she smiled again.
" when are you planning on seeing her again? "
"don't know"
"just tell me, if you meet her, please take me. So you don't have to feel like my match".
" well", okay",
At ten o'clock in the evening, the recreation area is already closed to people visiting other than those staying overnight. I plan to go to the toilet to wash my face and pee, when someone throws a stone and hits my head.
"oh", I rubbed my head, it hurt like I was half a vampire.
psshh..
psshhttt
I circulated my gaze, not seeing anyone but obviously someone called out to me.
I jumped in shock as someone came out from behind a big pine tree.
" Vampire kok taku ghost", Noa mocked me. I threw it with my little towel.
"basic! you look more like a yeti tau".
" good-looking yeti", he answered confidently.
I rolled my eyeballs, then walked towards the sink that was outside the toilet.
"what are you here for?" I asked suspiciously, "are you following me?"
"of course ra, I have to protect you".the answer was serious.I turned my eyes and started washing my face.
" actually, this forest is in our territory. Even if you're not here, I circle the area every night.just in case there's a grizzly bear".
I just nodded in understanding.
"you're like damkar" I muttered. Noa smiled amusedly.
" right Christian says, you're a comedian".
"christian's? are you guys already best?"
"not really, but we're working together. The vatican vampire is being held in my house. and christian is being there with the others. She's the one who asked me to keep you here, even if I knew, without her asking I'd be here to look after you".
I finished washing my face, Noa gave me my towel.
"so? thank you noa. You ignored your allergies for me", Noa chuckled again.
" seriously, I had a stomachache for a long time too".
"hmmm, you've been looking like christian for a long time, he always thought I was funny".
noa's face became flat. I now laugh.
" go away, I'm gonna pee". I threw him out, but Noa was flinching.
"hurry up, I'll wait for you. There's something I have to check".
" well", I quickly went into the toilet and then came out two minutes later. Noa asked me to go back to camp but I refused.
"you're this, so stubborn.
" what's up?" i insist.
"i smell a vampire I don't know ra, it's dangerous".
" let me come along.
"alright, but don't do anything rash, but what about your friends?"
I bit my lower lip, "they're asleep".I lied.
Noa nodded in understanding, then she pulled me into the forest. With a quick movement, he took off all his clothes and shoes, I half closed my eyes for fear of missing the part he transformed.
Akh was amazed to see Noa turn into a big wolf with a thick brown fur. He sat down and said, "go up to my back.
with great zeal I climbed onto his back, while carrying a noa bag containing his clothes. Noa ran through the forest in the dark, only the occasional moonlight coming in from the crevices of the tall trees.
