Strawberry Marmalades

Where Is Sora ?

Day after day just passed by. But Ren had not seen Sora since that day. And their last meeting was when Sora, who was in his house and suddenly disappeared when the doctor came to check on him.

There was a slightly strange feeling that Ren felt at this moment. A sense of loss and maybe longing because it had not seen Sora come to campus for days.

Where are you, Sora? Why don't you go to college for days? Has something happened to you? Are you all right? Is it because of the actions of those who make you not want to go to campus again? Or are you sick?

The mind of a young man who had been dribble long enough and his mind drifted far away.

"Rin! What's wrong with you? Quick pass the ball! If you are like this in a team game we will lose because you often make fouls!" celtuk one of the young men who was vice-captain of basketball on his campus.

Ren became even more annoyed when he heard the remark from the young man. Still with his frustration, now Ren began to throw the orange rough textured ball towards the young man.

"I'm allowing practice today. I am not well! You guys practice without me!" ren began to pitch out of the basketball court.

Ren walked down one of the long corridors on the campus, until finally Ren began to stop and stared at a fountain pool in the main courtyard of the campus.

The shadow while Sora was in the pool and seemed to be struggling to find something, began to cross back by Ren so real.

"I have to find him and see him!!" his murmured softly then began to reach into the pocket of his proud alma mater suit and began to issue a silver bracelet with a pendant of a star.

After searching for some information through the data archive and getting what Ren wants, Ren finally decided to go to Sora's house after school.

Actually, the address of Sora's house is very difficult to find, because it is so far from the residential area and is also quite far from the campus. And actually Ren felt very astonished, why Sora could have a place to live far enough from the campus?

It is possible to go to campus can take 90 minutes to 120 minutes. Then what about Sora if he's going to college? Of course that long distance was no big deal for her as a vampire race girl. Because Sora can run fast or even fly, and can immediately reach the campus.

The journey far enough has been Ren traveled and not feel deterred at all. The young man still continued his search and hoped to find Sora's home soon, even though it was getting closer to dusk and the sky had already started to turn red.

After walking down a small road that is slightly sloping and passing a plantation near the forest, Ren finally began to find a single house that is simple and still made of wood.

In the vicinity of the house there were no other houses. The small and simple house looks still so clean and very well maintained. Around it there are some trees that make it cooler.

"Is this Sora's house? Away from neighbors and far away from the crowds. Hhm ... is really a loner girl type." muttered Ren smiling faintly staring at the house from behind a large tree.

With no hesitation, now Ren began to pitch back toward the house. After a while now Ren had arrived and immediately knocked on the door of the house.

Ren also had time to look around, there are several livestock such as chickens, deer, and birds in their respective places.

Sora also likes to keep some animals huh? Hhm .. very diligent.

After a while of waiting, finally the wooden door started to creak as someone had opened it. There was a pale white girl behind the door.

KRIEETTE ...

The girl looks so surprised to find out the presence of Ren who she thinks is this reckless. His house is so far away and so difficult to reach, but Ren still comes to him. That meant Ren was so persistent and so reckless!

"You ... What are you doing here?" sora asked still it was hard to believe all this.

Because Ren is the first man who dares and recklessly comes to Sora's house. And actually Sora is so worried, if he will get out of control like the previous moments.

"I just want to visit you. As a student representative, I also have a responsibility for it. Therefore I visit you because you have not gone to college long enough" replied Ren lying by utilizing his position as a representative of literature students.

"What's wrong? Why did you skip college for so long? What the hell's going on?" look at Ren again very curious.

"I ... uhm ... I .. decided to just quit college." replied Sora so softly.

"What's? Quit college? Wh why? Is it because of their treatment?" ren asked almost in disbelief and was very shocked.

Sora looked so moody yet she started trying to smile back, she said,

"It's not because of them. I just want to stop. College or not going to college won't have any effect on my life. Thank you for trying to visit me. You better go home soon, because it will be dark" said Sora politely and intend to close the door.

But quickly Ren immediately blocked and held the door with both hands.

"Sora! Wait up! Can we talk for a minute? There are some things I want to talk to you about .." Ren said.

Though Ren just did not want to go home immediately. While Ren still wants to see, talk more, and of course want to know more about Sora .. the pale girl who was once given the label of strange and perverted girl by him.

Plus Ren's struggle in finding and finding Sora's house is really quite draining and must require strong determination! Because Sora's residence is quite extreme and far from the hustle of the city.

"Well ... you may enter .." said Sora so forced and there is no other option to refuse Ren.

Fortunately, I finished my house this morning. The smell of the blood of the animals was also not too smelled. But ... I still have to always hold myself back and control myself.

Inner Sora who had started to enter that simple house and was followed by Ren behind her. The main door of this house is so low, that it makes Ren who is high enough to have to duck when entering Sora's house.
