Suasana di dalam bilik tidur itu dipandang lama. Detik jam yang menunjukkan waktu 8.32 malam berbunyi tanpa henti mencecah kesunyian malam.

This dorm, why did it feel so quiet?

Ruang dorm di tempat tinggal yang berbentuk seperti rumah bangsawan zaman victorian dibahagi kepada tiga belas kawasan, which include four sides of the castle wings, Eastern, Western, Southern and Northern. Her dorm, Ebraxas were located in Eastern wings.

Bunyi notification baru masuk kedengaran, gadis berambut koko gelap itu pantas mencapai telefon bimbit yang dibiarkan bebas di atas cadar katil

---------++++---------

(Adriane)

Adriane : Girl this school a freaking crackhead i told ya!

Adriane : but bruh bila lagi nak ada tatoo kan lol.Anyways girl send me your room selfie i wanna see it! Here mine!

Adriana : *Image*

-------------+++++++--------

Hana ketawa melihat balasan Adriane. She might be the most talkative person she ever meets, not that she has any complaints, she was keen to meet her actually, someone who can make her introverted self feel like she finally belongs somewhere.

Dia membuka gambar bilik yang dihantar oleh Adriane, hiasan bilik itu yang dominant berwarna merah menarik perhatiannya.

She looks back at her room, also were mostly decorated in red.

Either this city has a lack of natural color paint or the founder of this school was obsessed with anything red.

Why did she have guts it the latter?

Nafasnya ditarik sebelun dia menghala camera telefon, cuba mencari angle yang menarik. A minute later, laman app kakao talk kembali dibuka.

--------++++++++---------

Adriane : Oh my god Hana this school owner must have a red fetish or what. Semua bilik dia hias merah

Adriana : but your room nampak comfy gila i wanna go there *pout*

---------+++++++-------------

Sekali lagi Hana ketawa kecil, she can already visualize Adriane's excited face if she here.

"Really.." Telefon diletakkan semula diatas katil " macam mana if one day someone as bright as her rasa menyesal kawan dengan aku yang tak ada benda menarik pun nak di offered. I just a depressing girl who don't know how to make friends..."

Rasa insecure yang menebal di dalam diri mula timbul, making her feel suffocated. Wajah gadis itu kembali suram.

Pintu bilik itu dibuka. Kelibat gadis berambut pendek dan bertona gelap melangkah masuk.She was wearing a light color pajama dan tuala yang dililit di bahagian kepala.

"Kau tak pergi mandi?" tanya gadis itu lalu duduk di bertentangan dengan Hana " if you want to, the eastern girl lavatory kinda full right now, might have to wait for a freaking twenty minute before you can get into the bathroom stall."

"Oh..."Hana yang masih kekok talking with her current roommates hanya mengangguk " kalau macam tu aku just tunggu tengah malam ni lah pergi mandi"

Gadis di hadapannya mengangkat kening " wow, tak sampai separuh hari dekat sekolah ni and kau dah berani mandi tengah malam."

"Haha.." Hana mengosok lehernya, buntu untuk meneruskan perbualan.

'But sure, up to you. Oh, dalam bilik air tu ada ruang untuk simpan toiletries, kau letak je dekat dalam tu so tak payah dah nak bawa masuk bilik"

"Okey" Hana mengangkat muka "thanks Violet'

Violet makes a smile " hey roomies, I told you to call me Vio kan. We gonna stuck together for four years. At least, let drop the formalities shall we?"

Hana also replied with a smile. She feels warm inside " okay Vio, sorry.."

"No problem roomies" Violet mengangkat kakinya, melihat tattoo logo sekolah berdakwat hijau yang diukir cantik di pergelangan kakinya "kau tak rasa pelik? I meant the first time aku dengar that second year girl cakap kita kena ada tattoos untuk buktikan kita pelajar sekolah ni, I thought she playing prank dekat kita but when the doctor finally curve it into our skin, it still feels like a dream. A first year high school student gettin a tattoo, imagine what our parent will react if their know? It's gonna be funny."

Bunyi notification masuk kembali kedengaran.Hana tidak menjawab soalan Violet, melihat semula skrin telefon.

Adriane just send another picture, her hand selfief with ocean blue ink school logo tattoo.

Hana turut melihat pergelangan tangannya, di tempat yang sama seperti Adriane, terukir tattoo berdakwat hijau, berbeza dengan Adriane yang diukir tattoo logo sekolah berwarna biru laut.

To be honest, she didn't know the exact answer to why the tattoo ink was in a different color. Perhaps it's just a random choice made by the doctor who draws it into them. Mylia, the second year student never properly explain it to them.

" tapi yang lagi pelik " Violet menyambung ' is the process during their draw our tattoo. Like dah kenapa diorang tutup mata kita dengan kain and like considering how fast the tattoo was curved I thought this was a freaking sticker. Kau rasa sakit time diorang letak tattoo tu but not that kind of sakit bila jarum cucuk kulit. Sakit tu rasa sampai tulang kan? But sekejap je then hilang and doom we got our first tattoo. I'm not a pro but should a proper tattoo drawing used a machine or what? Aku tak ingat ada machine tattoo dalam dewan tu,do you?"

"Tak, I don't see any.." Hana mengangguk , faham apa yang cuba diperkatakan oleh Violet

"Ah, screw it!" Violet membaringkan tubuh keatas katil " kita even hantar our blood sample dekat sekolah ni, apa nak dihiraukan dengan tattoo bodoh ni"

Bunyi hujan rintik dan deruan angin kedengaran dari luar bilik.

Mata kedua gadis remaja itu kini beralih tepat kearah tingkap,melihat rintikan hujan yang turun membasahi bumi

"It's raining.." Ayat itu keluar perlahan dari mulut Hana " no wonder it feels cold."

Raining is a blessing, some people said.

After all the mess she has been facing before she gets here, for once, she wanna believe that phrase.

-LIAVE CASTLE, CAZELLE DISTRICT, HELL-

Caleste menapak perlahan sehingga tubuhnya berdiri tegak di hadapan sebuah pintu besi bergerigi, dipenuhi dawai berduri.

"Ignalucia Enorriuum" Tangan gadis dihayun kearah pintu saat mulutnya mengamit perkataan jampi .

Serentak, dawai beduri yang menutup ruang pintu itu mula terbuka, memberi ruang untuk penampilan pintu itu kembali kepada normal, with an electricity click, sebelum tombol pintu kelihatan.

Celeste merenung lama pintu dihadapannya and makes a heavy sigh before she opens the door.

Ruang bilik tidur,yang suram tanpa sebarang cahaya lampu muncul.

Celeste bergerak dari ruang tamu bilik itu menuju kearah kamar " I know we lived in hell Riel, but at least can you light the candle."

She moves her hand and the candle around the room mula menyala, memberi cahaya malap ke seluruh ruang bilik tidur tersebut.

Castriel yang sedang duduk termenung di sisi katil , with messy hair and clothes tidak menjawab.His gaze were empty, looking straight at the bedroom floor.

Celeste mengambil tempat di sebelah lelaki itu. She caresses his hair carefully, looking at his attractive face and black irises " Riel, daddy let me in here but with a condition. He wants you to forget about the revenge and went back to school."

Castriel masih tidak menjawab. Tangannya dicengkam erat.

Celeste masih dalam nada memujuk "Riel, aku tahu it's hard. I won't validate your feeling but bruh, killing all those idiots won't do you any good."

Castriel mengalih muka,melihat tepat wajah Celeste " she dead, Celess.I will never saw her again, even if I turn this hell upside down. I lost her, I lost her for internity."

"Huh..." Celeste tries to breathe even it's useless since she not even alive in the first place " being a demon and angel sure sucks huh."

"Bila manusia atau makhluk ajaib yang lain dies, they can still get reincarnate, depends on their life karma but us...if a demon or angel died, it's the end. We perish, never been seen again." Suara Castriel sedikit sebak " I should never leave her alone that night."

"Riel!" Celeste membantah " it's never were your fault. You come back to the hell that night because daddy called you to attend the annual meeting as this territory crown prince. How can it be your fault, I'm sure Audrey will never.."

"So" Castriel voice changed. "Should I blame daddy? Or those other king's for advocates the meeting that night? Or even, should I blame myself? Tell me Caless, tell me who I should fucking blame cause I really can't do this anymore."

"Riel.." Caless cuba menyusun ayat but in the end, she really can't find a perfect one to calm her twin " Riel, daddy said demon can't love. That feeling never existed for us."

"Then." Castriel voice was a mix between sadness and misery " if the demon can't truly love a person, what's wrong with me now? What's wrong with me, that I can't never let her go. If that not love that what was it?"

"That night, I can't even cry when she died Caless, because the demon doesn't shed tears. We can't even cry. I feel numb, my whole being shattering the moment I saw her lifeless body, with that curse knife stab straight into her heart. I let her die. You might think it's nothing. That her death is common in our saeculorum existence, she just your best friend but for me, she supposes to be my wife, my family Celess, mine! but now she gone, what should I do?, what should I do Celess?"

Caleste tidak menjawab. Dia memeluk erat tubuh lelaki itu.

During 1500 years since she was born, she doesn't have a clue how to answer that question.
............................................................

Langkah Hana diatur keluar dari bilik air. Air masih menitik jatuh dari rambut gadis itu saat dia berjalan menuju kearah bilik.

Angin malam sejuk membelai dirinya, bersama hujan renyai making her feel sleepy.

Well, it's almost 1 am, she should feel sleepy.

Hanya bunyi tapak kaki milik gadis itu yang kedengaran di sepanjang koridor. Kebanyakan lampu bilik di seluruh bangunan kediaman ini telah ditutup.

Well, normal people did already sleep at this hour, even her roommate, Violet. The only people who left awake at this time were someone like her, a nerd who used this time to study, in her cases, bathing, or people with insomnia.

There no in between.

She stops walking and holds the corridor windows, looking straight outside toward rainy weather and the moon that hides behind the cloud.

But simply, it's a loss for those normal people, untuk tidak mengetahui atau melihat how beautiful the night sky was after midnight.

Lirikan mata Hana kemudian jatuh arah bumbung sekolah berhadapan dengannya.

Her heart feels like it about to explode looking at the sudden view in front her

Dari balik cahaya bulan yang sebentar tadi gelap meliputi kawasan bangunan tempat tinggal barunya, a figure, standing still in the roof looking straight back at her.

His mid-length black hair moving slowly, following the breeze.

Hana almost scream.

Ignore the fact that it's 1 am or the figures have a handsome pale face, or even when he was standing on the freaking roof.

"That man eyes" nafas Hana hampir terhenti " it's red.."
