"Hah! Scary cat! Are you still so intimidated by those things!? Lousy!" Calvin snickered, elbowing me in the ribs.
I squealed in pain and kicked his leg, but it seemed to be futile as he meaningfully showed me his leg muscles.

Calvin is one of the most popular boy in the whole school, well, probably the whole Audition Town. There would
be someone who knew him wherever he goes. Always. He grinned at me, showing me a set of perfect teeth that anybody would dream to get. I sighed in defeat, shaking my head as everyone at the table started laughing.
I glared at everyone until they stopped but however, Jennifer and Leon continued.
Secretly and quietly.
Trust them to think that I didn't notice them.
and I believed they would never, no matter how many missing cases and news that were linked to supernatural paranormal activities were shown as facts in the town.
Hmm.. I wonder ..
"Kelly, are you okay?" Angela nudged me. I removed myself from my castle of thoughts and nodded my head. Angela was one of my closest friends, the most understanding among all the friends I had. Although she did laugh at me for believing in the supernatural, I sensed that she too believed in it even though she did not show it.
She got up from her chair and put on her "Cat Hoodie", that she always wore to school, which she told me was a gift from her late father.
The bell rang, which signified the end of our break. Our clique left the table reluctantly as Brenda made us rush back to class. With her, we were never late. I secretly admired Brenda's beauty, and deep down in my heart, I knew I envy Angela's features too.
They never failed to make me jealous, and besides their pretty faces, I was wild about their etiquette, particularly the way they carry themselves.
We then proceeded to our classrooms. Not to be boasting but our school is definitely one of the most prestigious schools in Audition Town, and almost of our classrooms were air-conditioned. Except for a few classrooms which were used for certain activities. It was luxurious, but most of the time my sleepiness got the better of me and I was not able to concentrate during lessons. Jennifer, too had a problem staying awake in class due to the air-conditioning. Brenda and Angela always knew I was falling asleep, and so they nudged me to keep me focusing in class.
That afternoon, our school invited a speaker to give a talk about Paranormal activies during assembly. I winked at my friends meaningfully now that they should know such 'things' exist. I rubbed my clammy hands together as I anticipated the talk. Although I knew that paranormal activities really does exist, in my heart I hoped that it does not. Seeing a spirit wandering around would be the last thing I ever wanted.
I shuddered, clearing my thoughts away.

Alright, so this Paranormal activity talk ended up becoming a Halloween scare. Great. I got cheated. Calvin and Leon glanced at me and grinned when I returned the look. I threw them a cold stare.
The Halloween talk passed on slow, I could not described it. It felt like hours has passed after the speaker had spoken for only 30 minutes. I swear I was not exaggerating and I meant what I said. Probably this speaker put on a spell to make the time slower, I thought jokingly to myself. Everyone started to feel bored and some even dozed off. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing but I found myself starting to observe the speaker.

She had long straight hair and neat bangs, yet something in her eyes told me that she was not simple. My attention was focused on her that I did not realise that the talk had already ended.
"Finally it ended!" I choroused in joy with Jennifer as we prepared to leave the room. As I was leaving the room with my clique, a chill went down my spineas I could sense our actions being watched.

Slowly, I turned back and looked into the room as I walked on. Nothing was there, everyone had left.

Perhaps it was just my wild imagination, and I convinced myself that I was being paranoid.
