8 Chapter 7: Her answer...

Tomorrow came and Rachel was ready to go to school... Forgetting about yesterday since today was their big celebration in school she can't be absence in that day.

"Mom! Got to go now... Maybe I will be home late" Rachel said shouting at her family.

"Okay Rach have fun!" Her mother said then Rachel leaves the house.

Rakesh sense that the lady was going somewhere he look at it and he can't help but to amaze of how beauty she was today. She was wearing a red polka dot dress and her shoes have heels he thinks it's only 3 height. She is also wearing a bow on her head. (Think of these as a Minnie mouse dress.)

Rakesh was so confuse why would Rachel wear that kind of dress? He look at his sibling who is still sleeping when he decides to wake her up.

"Hey, wake up" Rakesh said shrugging his siblings when Reihta open her eyes and rubbing it she ask him, "Huh? Why?"

"I'm following that girl. You should stay here and be alert okay?" Rakesh said, but since Reihta just woke up she barely understand what her brother said, she just nod without understanding what he was saying. Rakesh shrug his head and left her.

Rakesh followed Rachel where she is going but since he was a dragon he have to use his Human form so that no one could ever think that he was a dragon.

Rachel ride a bus and since Rakesh don't know how to transport it he also did the same. When they arrive at school Rachel pay for her taxes and Rakesh was about to leave when the conductor ask about his payment. He don't know how will he pay when one of the passengers pay for his taxes.

Rakesh look at the person who help him pay the bus payment.

It was a girl wearing strange uniform since she look like a cartoon character, she wears a black cat headband, she also wears a black tail of a cat. He look at the girl she is also pretty, long black hair, pink lips, and she also have beautiful shapes.

"Don't worry about the tax it's on me" She said and smiled at him.

Since this is the first time he encounter a girl unlike Rachel that he use to follow. He also smiles and thank her.

The girl went inside Rachel's school that he nearly forgot that he was following her. But Rachel was already gone so he decided to follow this girl.

The girl notice his presence so she look back only to find out that the man she helps from the bus was following her. She thinks that this man was suspicious because why he following her but in the end she thinks that this man was lost. Although their school was open to any outsiders since they were celebrating their schools Anniversary.

So she let him follow her, but she also notice that this man was looking for something or someone she don't know, since this man was looking from left to right all the time. The Lady sighed and decided to confront this man. Rakesh felt that the lady notice what he was doing so he stops from walking and look at her who is now walking towards him.

When the lady was now in front of him, Rakesh felt unease it was like this lady was observing him. He gulped he was about to speak when someone called the lady.

"Jessa let's go! The party was about to start!" Someone yelled at her but Rakesh recognize that voice, It was from Rachel!

"Ah okay! I'll be there a minute!" The lady who known as Jessa shouts at Rachel who is nod at her. She a bit confused to the man that Jessa with but in the end she decided to go back inside.

"Umm, did I know you? I mean, you were following me after I paid your bus taxes. Do you need something to me?" Jessa asked Rakesh who is now looking elsewhere if he could find Rachel.

"Uh, no. I mean I was lost. I was following Rachel when I lost here. So I decided to follow you since you look like you know this place more than me." Rakesh said showing his sheepishly smile in front of her. Jessa found Rakesh handsome but when she heard about Rachel she can't help but to feel jealous.

Rachel was so popular in their school. Lots of people loves her, especially boys and now this handsome man was tamed by her beauty she can't help but to feel jealous.

"Why you're looking for her?" Jessa ask in a low voice.

"Umm, it's complicated. Do you know where she is?" Rakesh said. He knows that this girl knows where was Rachel since she called her a few minutes ago. Good thing that Rachel did not find out that he was her dragon. Although there would be a chance for him to follow her immediately but he don't want to cause a scene. Especially when Rachel finds out about him entering her school.

"Umm... I know where she is but, we were... I mean we were too busy since our school was celebrating our 30th Anniversary." Jessa said.

"Is that so, but can you help me find her? But don't tell her that I am here" Rakesh said, Jessa nodded. And she lead the way through their classroom where Rachel was doing her job as a waiter in their Café.

When Rakesh and Jessa arrive at their room Rakesh look everywhere to find Rachel when he spotted her who looks so beautiful in her dress.

Jessa point him to sit one of the chairs and act as a client in their café. Even if Rakesh did not understand what he has to do, he still followed what Jessa told him to do.

"Hey, do you find that man sit in the corner looks suspicious?" Rina said one of their classmate.

"Man?" Rachel ask and look everywhere to find him. Until Rina point out the man who sitting alone in the corner and looking at them.

Rachel try to spotted the man if he knows him when Jessa called her that made her look somewhere and not to observe the man in the corner.

"What is it Jessa?" Rachel ask.

"N-nothing... I forgot what I am supposed to say to you" Jessa say awkwardly laugh at her. Rachel seems confuse but at the end she did not mind at all and was about to look at the man again when that man was no where to see.

On the other hand, Rakesh needs to go out before he came back into dragon. If everyone finds out about him, it would be a disaster.

He's running out of time since he knew that his human transformation was about to limit. He was walking fast when he accidentally bump into another man, who is already in the bad mood.

"What the hell dude! Are you blind?!" The man said who wears a suit. He's from another section which their booth was about marriage.

"I'm so sorry I was in a hurry-" Rakesh wasn't done talking when the man he bump with punch him in the face, causing a scene. Rakesh fell on the ground rubbing his face and shocked to what just happen.

"You ruined my suit dude! Do you know how much cost is this?!" The man in a furious shouted at him. All the crowds was starting look watch the scene.

Rakesh did not know how to responds, this is the first time that someone who is a person punch him in a human form. He haven't experience some kind of pain when he was in dragon form. Rakesh hands turned into fist and was raging his angry at the man when Rachel stood between them and shouts at the man who punch him in his face.

"What on earth are you doing Vince! He's an outsider you should not punching him!" Rachel said shouting at the man who calms.

"He's the one who bump me in the first place! Serves him right!" Vince said. Vince was a popular in their school like Rachel, but there were difference in their personality. If Rachel was kind and friendly this man was opposite of her. He doesn't like anyone, he was a gangster in their school, rich and a certified playboy. He always do smoke in the roof top and doing naughty stuffs. He likes to play basketball. He has a height of 6'7 and no one messing him aside from Rachel who he always wanted to be in touch with her.

"Even so, it was only an accident! Can't you just not mind at all?!" Rachel shouts.

"Why are you so defensive of him? Don't tell you like him over me?" Vince said which made Rachel slaps him in the face.

"Don't you dare say that to my face Vince! If I remember I never told you that I like you so stop thinking that you have the right to say that in my face! I never like you, and always will!" Rachel said then turn her gaze to Rakesh which made Rachel shock to find out that it was Rakesh who Vince punch him in the face.

"So that is your answer" Vince said in a low voice. Rachel feel conscience but she stood on what she said to him.

"Yes, that is my answer. I'm sorry" Rachel said and help Rakesh to get up and brought to the clinic.
