Chapter Five: Cheering Up
After going to change in the locker rooms, Una kept her eyes on Kion. He seemed pretty shaken after his encounter with Janja. Una felt bad for the boy, but couldn't bring herself to go and comfort him. Her mother always told her to help people in need but Una just didn't know what to say.
Gym classes had the last lunch of the day. After class Una changed back into her school clothes and left the locker room. Una was greeted by Jasiri. "Hey, Una." She said. "Hey," Una said back smiling weakly. Jasiri frowned sadly at her friend. Una looked up see Kion walk passed them and up the stairs. "K-Kion!" Una called. Kion stopped have way up the stairs.
Una squeaked when Kion turned to look at her. His amber eyes were dull as his bangs hung in front of his face. "Are you okay, Kion?" Jasiri asked. Kion nodded and continued up the stairs without a word. "Come on, Una. Let's cheer him up, yeah?" Jasiri said. "Yeah," Una said with a small smile.
The two ran up the stairs and followed Kion. Una saw Kion as he nodded to Jasiri. Jasiri linked her right arm to Kion left and Una linked her left arm with his right. "H-Huh? What are you two doing?" Kion said. "You're upsetting Una with your attitude," Jasiri said. Kion blushed. "Wh-What?! Una, I'm sorry." He said.
Una saw Kion's eyes get color back to them as he looked at her with saddened eyes. "I was just worried about you that all. Janja seemed to really upset you." Una said. Jasiri let go of Kion's arm as left the two to talk. "Yeah. I guess." Kion said. "What happened between you two? I heard you were good friends." Una said.
"Yeah...we were. But, to be honest with you I hate talking about this." Kion said. "It's fine. We talk about it when you're ready." Una said. Kion blushed and chuckled nervously. "Yeah, totally," Kion said. "Cool, come on. Let's go get lunch." Una said, pulling Kion with her by his arm. Kion blushed deeper as they walked to get lunch. 'Una. What are you doing to me?'
*Time Skip*
Una met up with Xander at the end of the day by the front door of Prideland High. "First day of school over. How are you feeling, Una?" Xander asked. "Awesome. Everyone's cool!" Una said, excitedly. Xander grabbed Una's hand. "Let's walk home together, Una," Xander said. Una smiled, blushing a light pink. "Sure, Xandy." She said as the two walked down the sidewalk towards their neighborhood.
