John's POV
- "Monster." Is what Claire said to me on that day, and is the first thing I remember after waking up by the alarm.
- "You're not a monster." Is what my dad said to me after that talk we had and is the other thing I remember after waking up.
This is very confusing indeed...
I want to stop this feeling... but still isn't enough.
Recently, I got caught up in a fight with Arlo, but... I didn't feel like I've won.
That fight made me understand one thing...
I need to get stronger.
As I am now, is not enough.
I can't let that happen again, at least not to Doe.
Never.
This time, I'm going to do things right.
Yesterday, I reached something that before I couldn't even begin to think of.
I sensed abilities without my opponent activating theirs, but only when I powered up.
Also, another thing seemed weird to me on that day...
Was that weird timing when Elaine decided to power up.
It just bugs me out.
Why did she decide to activate her ability at that precise moment?
Why not activating it before?
I saw that she was frozen from the fear, so she wasn't reacting.
But still, why waiting until she gets slapped to do it?
--- 30 Minutes Later ---
After thinking it for a while, it doesn't make sense.
Wait.
It wasn't that she activates her ability after I slapped her.
It was in the middle of the slapping if I remember correctly.
But still throws me out.
This isn't taking me anywhere, and I don't have all morning to figure it out.
I have to do my morning routine.
- "You up?" I asked Doe, who was awake.
*WOOF* He responded to me, as he comes closer to where I am.
Then, I pat his head as he was waving his tail from side to side.
I feel like I could be like this forever.
But I have to take him out for a walk, what a bummer.
--- 1 Hour Later ---
On my way to my dorm, I passed over my old house, after the headmaster gives his decision, I had to leave this place.
It was very annoying since I really liked this place.
It was spacious, I could relax without worries, and closer to the city.
But is not the time for looking at the past right now.
