Chapter 71 Everything Is Fine.

I open my eyes slowly and steadily.

I feel fresh...but the pain I feel makes me frown.

I look over to my side to see Katherine, sleeping on a chair with her head down.

' What's she doing here ?', I think confused.

That's when it all came back to me, honestly I wished that I hadn't remembered anything cause this whole situation...was fucked up and to add fuel to the already burning fire....I cried in front of Katherine like a fucking new born...

What the fuck is wrong with me ?

This is so embarrassing...

I look down at my body to find that the wounds that I had inflicted on myself had been patched up...by her I assume.

I shake my head, this wasn't important.....what's important is the fact that there's an angel amongst us.

Dina.

I knew that I would have to face her one day, but I didn't think it would be so soon. That was partly the reason why I freaked, I am in no way ready to face my mother or at least a woman who looks like my mother.....at least not yet.

The biggest question that has to be addressed was...Dina's purpose here.

Dina was the Angel of Learning so is she hear to learn ?....

No, that's stupid.

Did I cause this ?....But ho-

Joe....it's Joe.

I was pretty sure that Dina had something to do with the birth of his 'system', so what if she's here for revenge.... if it really is that....then she probably knows that I'm the one that killed him...

I'm so fucked...

But something feels off....if she knows I'm the one that killed Joe...why was she the only one here ?

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Where are the other angels ?

I mean, all of them gathering together might be an overkill but still...why only her ?

That's not the right question.

Why was an angel here in the first place ?

Even if they did find about my existence....there wasn't any reason to be personally involved. The angels could just enforce one of their teams to assassinate me.

There was something more going on.

Dina's arrival here might have nothing to do with me.

Dina...no Domino was sitting in the staffroom, deep in thought.

She was obviously thinking about Adam Creed.

It seems that she's been thinking about him a lot recently.

She came to Unity at the first opportunity because she couldn't contain her curiosity about the boy, but there was something more.

Every time Dina looked at the boy, she felt this strange feeling envelope her chest. It was sickening...at first she thought that she was actually sick, it was only later that she realized it was all because of the boy.

It's always the boy.

Domino was really excited to finally meet the boy, she didn't plan on harming the boy. She just wanted to find out more about him. She didn't plan revealing anything about herself but the moment their eyes met, she saw the fear in his eyes.

' He knows.', Domino thought restless.

" Adam ?...", Katherine asked rubbing her eyes.

I smile at her awkwardly and say,

" Hey..."

" Are you alright now ?", she asks still groggy from her sleep.

" uh...yup."

An unbearable silence fills the room until Katherine asks,

" What happened ?"

Well, that is the question isn't it....

" Nothing much....It's a routine of mine to cry sometimes."

Katherine sighs and gets up, as she goes to the door she says,

" If you keep all your problems balled up inside you...it might burst out all at once and by then it'll be too late."

I like watching things explode.

As she leaves I say,

" Thank you for patching me up."

That afternoon after class finished, Eric returned with Lecia, who was worried sick.

It seems that Eric told Lecia about my... little episode. She shook my head right and left trying to get anything out of me. They both stare at me expectantly.

Usually, I would just hide something like this but....this isn't something that should be kept hidden.

I may think of myself as a god, but the sad truth is that I'm not all that mighty. I can't be there to protect them always.

" Our homeroom teacher is...one of the twelve angels."

Lecia and Eric seemed shocked at this new development.

~~~~

We came up with a set of rules.

The first rule was to always be on high alert.

The second rule was to watch each other's back.

The third and final rule was to never leave any of our friends alone with Domino, which now that I think about is a ridiculous name.

What's next ?

Burger Hut ?

Eric proposed that we tell Max and the rest about the truth about angels, but I refused instantly. Max can't know now....not yet.

Lecia listened silently while I planned the future with Eric.

The only thing Lecia had to do was stay put, I mean what else could she really do ?

" I'm going to be a hero."

Eric and I turn around in surprise at Lecia's sudden declaration.

" What ?...", I ask puzzled.

" I want to be a hero."

" I don't think so.", I say still puzzled.

" C'mon, think about it. With my help, we can keep watch on all your friends."

Well, that would be a big help but-

" It's not possible now...the schoo-"

Lecia cuts me off and says,

" The school has already agreed to my enrollment...I've been thinking about this for awhile now and I want to do it."

" How did the schoo-", I stop talking once I see the smile on Lecia's face.

.....

This bitch bribed the school !!

That's just low....it's something I would do.

It seems that Lecia's growing along with the rest of us.

But I still didn't want her to join the hero course...it was too dangerous. But looking at her determined expression I realize that this wasn't just about helping us...she was doing this for her own good.

Who am I to stand in the way of that ?

" Ok.", I agree a little stiffly.

Anyway, I hope Dina....no Domino is ready cause we're about to kick her ass...well defeating her wasn't possible so.... we're about to gently kick her ass.

~~~~

A Day Later,

A boy stood in front of his teacher, his face was red and he appeared to be nervous.

The boy closes his eyes and bends his head before saying,

" I love you !"

Adam looked up at his stunned homeroom teacher, Domino and thought to himself,

'How the fuck....did I end up here ?'
