Kissing The Wind VK

Just like the wind, I was invisible.

No one dare to get close to me. During recitation, I would volunteer myself to speak in front because teachers wouldn't choose me. For  them, I was the last option.

I had no friends. Of course, they wouldn't get along with a poor girl like me, because almost all students here in my school were born with a golden spoon in the mouth. I was the exception.

The good thing of being alone? I could do what I want.

I smiled while watching the little kitten ate my leftover fish in my lunchbox. Earlier, I didn't finish my lunch because I need to finish some projects. So when I got pass by here and saw the kitten, I just gave my leftover away.

"We're the same," I whispered under my breath. "People don't want us." I heaved a sigh.

I waited for almost ten minutes before the kitten finished my leftovers. "Good," I said before I put back my lunchbox inside my backpack.

When I stood up, I saw the students nearby looking at me with ridiculous looks. Sometimes they'll whisper to each other and giggles. And I knew that it was me who they were whispering about.

It's okay. I was born to be ridiculed anyway. I just shrugged my shoulders and walked ahead.

The sun was setting on the horizon. The color of the sky was like a painting, with red and orange streaks. It drew a smile to my lips as I wondered how much time was left before the sun finally hid on the west.

I always saw the sunset after school. Every day, while I was strolling the road way home, I constantly look above and wonder how magnificent the sunset was.

I heaved a sigh again. I knew that my mom was making soup now, as I continued my journey towards home. She was like that. She was fond of cooking, and I love every bit of it.

"Miss!" someone shouted from behind.

I stopped in my tracks and turned around. I saw a man walking gracefully towards me. Furthermore, I faintly smiled at him. "Yes, Mister?"

He smiled back. "I saw you giving some food to a kitten near the campus gate."

"Uh." I blinked. "Yeah. I did it earlier."

I looked past him. We're almost a kilometer away from the campus gate. I saw the signage, since the sidewalk follows a straight path.

"It looks like there's something in your food, Miss."

"Huh?" I looked back to the man and I saw no sign of his smile now.

There's something on my food?

"What do you mean?" I asked.

He brushed his hair using his own fingers and gave me a weird smile. "The kitten is dead."

What? The kitten is dead?

I knitted my brows at his remarks. I was not sure if he was kidding or saying the truth. The mischievous smile on his lips didn't help either.

"I think I should go," I said and turned around. I briskly walked away, but I abruptly stopped when he said something.

"You must not get away from your crime."
