Chapter 16 - See you again

"Don't ask, just watch me, we may not be able to reach Gong-li, we have to catch him before he enter the club!" Alison said hurriedly and she pulled Mabel's hand and they hurriedly chased Gong-Li. They saw him standing in the distance near the club and he is wearing a face mask.

"Gong-Li!" Alison called out, as they rushed towards him, and when Gong-Li heard that someone calling his name, he turned his head, and he saw them drawing near.

The two stopped when they were in front of Gong-Li.

"Can I make friends with you?" Said Alison as she grinned.

Gong-Li could not move immediately.

"Please!" Said Alison.

"There is no problem if you want me to be your friend, where is Kirstein?" he asked.

"She's in a hurry to go home,"

"Aren't you the one who was in a hurry to go home, right?" Gong-Li asked in bewilderment.

Alison and Mabel looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

And suddenly, Mabel spoke.

"So, we were worried of Kirstein, she might be late for the bus, because her house is a bit far away, but ours are quite close," Mabel sheepishly said. "So we decided to talk to you for a while, since we don't need to ride a bus, we can go home anytime," Alison grinned.

"Okay, is that so?"

"Yes, so we thought of chasing you, because we want you to be our friend, if possible," said Alison.

"Maybe but, I don't interact much with non-members, it's forbidden," said Gong-Li.

"Then recruit us!" Alison promptly said.

Alison stared at Gong-Li with glitters in her eyes, and she smiled sweetly at him.

"Well, I need to think about it, I will asked Kirstein first," Gong-Li said.

Alison felt jealous when she heard him saying it. "What if Kirstein isn't interested to be part of it?" Alison asked. "I only recruit for those interested,"

"We are very interested!" Mabel chimed in.

"How interested are you?"

"You know, since we knew about this club, we always come hear everynight,"

Alison lied,

"Why?"

"Because were hoping to be a member, but the guard won't let us,"

"The guard can't do nothing with it," Gong-Li scoffed.

"Yeah, and it happened that we meet you, it's a destiny!"

Alison said. Gong-Li suddenly thinks, he thought that there's nothing to lose if he will recruit them, and it's up to them if they will past the test.

"Well, if you are really interested, I can recruit you, but it's not guaranteed, you need to past a test," Gong-Li said. "What test?" Mabel asked.

Alison forbade Mabel for not to keep asking.

"You don't need to ask that Mabel, we will know that later, the most important is, Gong-Li is willing to recruit us," Alison said as she smirked.

"I need to go now, see you again in other day,"

Gong-Li said. Alison suddenly thought of an idea.

"Where is the paper that Kirstein gave you with her Cell phone number on?" Alison asked.

Gong-Li grope the small piece of paper on his pocket.

"There it is," he said as he showed it to Alison.

Alison promptly took it. "I will also write down my number here," Alison said punctually, and she took a ballpen from her bag quickly. She immediately erased Kirstein's number and she write down her number instead.

And afterwards, she gave it to Gong-Li.

He took it, and he put it in his pocket even without reading it.

"Okay, I'll call you," Gong-Li said.

"I will wait for your call," Alison said with a huge grin. "Okay," Gong-li said and he left, they saw him wearing a face mask and went inside the club. They were astonished when they saw him entering the door.

"Wow!" They gaped.

"I want to be like him too!" Mabel exlaimed.

"Don't worry, we will enter in that club, sooner or later!" Said Alison.

The next day, Alison was overjoyed when Gong-li called her.

Flashback endend.

Mabel narrated.

"And the following day, I was surprised when Alison told me that Gong-Li had called her, and they also met, just the two of them, they have been seeing each other every day,"

"What? But why didn't Alison even tell me? It's annoying," I said with disappointment on my face.

"Oh, I don't know why, you may ask Alison," Mabel said.

"She is bad!" I said, feeling upset.

"And into my great surprised, Alison told me that Gong-Li is willing to recruit her to be a part of Octagon club, and she's taking me with her, if it weren't for her I wouldn't be able to be there, so thank you very much to Alison," she said, upbeat.

I did not like what Mabel have said. They met Gong-Li because of me! They sent me home, and they approach him without telling me. I feel very disappointed on them. Suddenly, Alison came over and she was shocked when she saw me. "Alison, how are you?" I greeted her.

"Kirstein, what are you doing here?" she asked in surprised. I feel so dumbed when I saw her.

"I-I saw you earlier with Gong-Li?" Frowning when I told her.

"Well!" Alison says and she seems that she doesn't know what to say at all. Eventually Gong-Li approaches.

"Hello Kirstein!" Gong-Li greeted me warmly.

"Gong-Li!" I exclaimed when I saw him drawing near. Alison suddenly held his arms and asking him to leave.

"Let's go now, I'm excited," Alison said and she immediately dragged Gong-Li to leave. "Well, till here, we go now Kirstein," Mabel said in a hurry.

"W-Wait, wait a minute, I want to go with you!" I called out.

"We were going in our school, what are you going to do there if you come with us?" Alison said obviously lying. She is saying it in our own language so that Gong-Li will not barely understand.

"Alison let's not fool around, there is no school today and I know where you are going!"

She looked at Mabel and she let her know through her eyes why she had told me this. "I'm sorry Alison, I just said it because I am so excited," Mabel said not looking at Alison eyes. "Well that's okay, but I'm sorry Kirstein, just Mabel and I are the only ones recruited by Gong-Li, we are in a hurry, we will go ahead, we'll see you again, maybe," she said as she chuckled.
