after Ki Woon and Albert left, Kuro begin to his step toward his own class. when opened the door to his class, some eyes glances at him. his presence in the school has begin to attract some attentions from some people, yet h Kuro never seems to notice it as his senses were searching for Yuki and his friends.

But oddly enough, his walk towards his classroom was rather peaceful. No nasty names being thrown at him nor violent act that would make him curl in embarrassment from Yuki and his gang.

Kuro feel a little relieve with the short peaceful time. When he opened the door to his classroom. The room full of laughter and chats went silent, as some of Kuros's classmate glance and stare at him for a second before the classroom burst back with noise ignoring his existence.

Kuro take his steps slowly to reach his desk and put down his bag trying to ignore the still figure sitting next to his table. Kuro pull out his chair and sit down, keeping quiet, as silent as a mouse. Kuro could feel the awkward silent grow between him and Rubius.

Finally, the class end with a ring for recess. Kuro carefully clean up his desk and quickly left the classroom. Unable to stay under the pressure beside Rubius any longer, Kuro choose to leave him behind.

The hallway was crowded with students walking out of their own classroom, grouping up with their own friends. Chatting together in one group. Kuro struggle to walk pass the crowd as his small figure try to fit through the small gap between the students. Suddenly Kuro could feel his wrist being hold firmly and pulled through the crowd. because there was so many people around trying to get to their destinations Kuro unable to see the face of the one pulling him through the crowd.

As soon as the bell ring, Ki Woon quickly greet the teacher goodbye and walk out of the classroom. Shock by his best friend behavior, Albert quickly stood up from his seat and greeted the teacher goodbye and apologise to the teacher for his companion's behavior.

The teacher paid it no mind as he let other student to also leave the classroom for recess making Albert's step fast out of the classroom to catch up to his best friend.

Only to find him talking to a moody and cunning looking man. His long earring shine with he light that shine the now empty hallway.

"You are his desk mate?" Ask Ki Woon with a jealousy filling his eyes. Never though someone would be able to sit beside his savior.

Rubius brain cell connected as he watch the way This person's eyes flicker with something akin to obsession even when Ki Woon's face as cold and unreadable as usual.

Rubius frown, hating the way this new guy had some interesting face on, feeling like his own little plaything is owned by someone other than himself. For the first time Rubius felt challenged by something he can't even change.

"He run off quickly, I don't even know where he's at..." He scoff as he turn his face away, ignoring Ki Woon's existence. Ki Woon apologies to their man for bothering him and leave with a disappointed face. Unable to find his beloved savior.

"What's wrong with you? Where is Kuro?" Albert ask as he saw Ki Woon walk out from that classroom alone. Albert hold his friends wrist firmly finally catch up too him "I guess he have another friends to hang out with.." Ki Woon answer as he walk pass his best friend not wanting to show him his disappointment.

seeing this, Albert walk away from the scene. he could feel the unease feeling at the pit of his stomach. he quickly follow behind his best friend and try to light his mood up, trying to ignore the unknown worry in his stomach. 

the bell ring once more, signalling the end of the recess. Rubius was awaken from his nap on house own desk when the classroom burst with the lively chats and murmurs.

as he stir up from his rest, he found out that Kuro still isn't back from the recess even when the teacher already enter and start the class.

Feeling unease by this, Rubius get up from house seat and walk out of the classroom without even glancing at the teacher Rubius exits the classroom.

As Rubius walk along the hallway, he try to think where someone like Kuro would go. Rubius thought that Kuro sudden disappearance was odd as Rubius never think that someone as timid and scary cat looking like Kuro would skip class.

Then Rubius suddenly remember a guy that harassed Kuro at the canteen the other day. Rubius think carefully as he begin to notice how Kuro look like he was expecting to get hit when they man Raiden his hand.

"My little toy is being played by some bastard...." Rubius grumble low as his step begin to grow faster. Rubius could feel a surging anger and disgust thinking about someone else touching house things.

As Rubius turn to a corner to a stairs, he accidently bump into discipline teacher in the school. The teacher scowled at Rubius seeing how messy and undefined his look was.

His uniform was untuck in his pants, the earrings that shout 'gangster' and the flashy color of his hair make thre discipline teacher boil with anger and begin to lecture Rubius in the exact spot.

At the end of the corridor, stand Albert who's holding a stack of exercise book for the students in his class. He quietly watch the scene unfold before leave and continue his journey toward the teacher's room and finish his duty.

But just like Rubius, Albert also have those dragging unease feeling deep in his stomach. Albert though that Kuro wouldn't have any friends since his face were screaming loneliness and anti social. So Albert got curious when Ki Woon told him that Kuro was hanging out with some friends instead of Ki Woon.

Not thinking much Albert goes into the teacher's room and place the stacks of exercise book on their desk before retreating back to house classroom. Yet he promised to himself to ask Kuro himself at the end of the school himself as his curiosity get a better hold of him.

Little did the swan and the fox knew, that they won't meet the little black cat even when the school has ended.
