Akira wandered through the corridors and classrooms, the hum of other students around him feeling distant somehow. Nothing unusual happened, yet a strange feeling kept gnawing at the back of his mind. He said nothing, keeping his thoughts to himself. The day ended without conflict or incident, and soon he was walking back home.

At the door, his mother greeted him with her usual warm smile. “How was your first day?” she asked, pouring him a cup of tea. Akira nodded, giving a small smile, but the unease from the school seemed to cling to him.

As he set his bag down, a folded note slipped out, catching his eye.In neat handwriting it simply read: “I’ve been waiting for you.”

Akira’s heart skipped a beat. He stared at the note, a chill running down his spine. Whoever had left it was watching him, and somehow, he already knew that his life was about to change.240Please respect copyright.PENANAPjeKrfmlo2
