The Eleventh Gifted (The Gifted Fanfiction)

Chapter 36

"Aria, have you seen Pang?" Namtarn asked as the two of them headed to the cafeteria for lunch. They hadn't seen him throughout the day, which worried the girl.

Aria shook her head and added, "I haven't. I was about to ask you the same."

But both their attentions were grabbed by a voice and a familiar figure inside the cafeteria.

"Disappear now! Disappear now!"

It was Ohm, playing with his potential. He had been doing so since he managed to make the lot of them invisible. He wouldn't even bother to throw away his trash, he would just straight up make them disappear just like what he was doing on the cups on the table.

The two girls rushed, afraid that regular students would see what he was doing.

"Dis-"

"Enough!" Namtarn grabbed the cup before Ohm could make it disappear. It earned her a pouty glare from the boy. "People will see what we do. Sit down.

Aria took the seat beside her, across from Ohm, at the same time as him.

"Is Pang still in class?" Namtarn asked Ohm as she once again looked at her watch for the ninth time since the two girls walked out of class.

"I don't know. I don't think he's in class though. He doesn't have a class at this hour."

"Have you tried texting him?" Aria asked Namtarn.

"Yes, and he hasn't responded yet."

Aria shook her head at her friend's mysterious behaviour all of a sudden. That had been going on for the last few days. "What's with him?" If something was bothering him, he knew he could rely on those three.

"I'll call him." Aria fished out her cellphone from her pockets and started dialling Pang's number. It rang for a moment, then a robotic female voice says, "The caller did not answer your call."

Confused as to why, she tried again. But she heard the same answer.

"Aria, Ohm," Namtarn called.

A little frustrated why Pang wouldn't answer her calls, Aria put her phone down and focused on Namtarn. She was looking at the counter where a boy wearing a red jacket was ordering food. There was no need to see the face, there was only one person in that school who wore that jacket

"Can I have one Tomyan chicken fried rice with extra steamed egg and one stir-fried noodle, please," they overheard Wave.

Aria's mood immediately changed. Her aura became colder at the sight of him. She had forgotten about Wave for quite a while then. He did not revolve around her mind pretty much unlike before. But when she could see him like that, all the pain and anger he caused came back in the flesh.

"Wave orders a weird dish like Pang usually does," said Ohm.

Aria couldn't care less. She went back to her cellphone to try and call Pang once more.

"He just ordered two boxes," said Namtarn. "I should check up on him."

"I've been trying to call Pang and I've tried just now. The line's busy," Aria said, her voice becoming slightly colder and irritant than before.

All their heads turned to Wave and heard him. "Hello, yeah I got it for you. Just a minute." Then Wave walked away, not looking anywhere else. But he halted and walked back, taking two straws, then left.

Namtarn and Ohm looked at each other, whilst Aria was busy glaring at the straw stand where Wave had been once. She was pissed, extremely pissed that it seemed like Wave had moved on from what he did! He moved on just like that after a few days! But Aria hadn't, no. The pain she felt days ago was still present. It left a hole in her heart.
