8 Sarah (2/2)

”The other three yirais are the haras. We make a contract to always protect the reymir and vice versa.”

”I think my head will explode with all this nonsense!”

”You just need time to adapt through all of this.”

”So, are we in the same group?”

”Yes, I even know who the other two are.”

”Who are they?”

”Nathan Zirken and the rae yirai Robert Ukreni.”

”Robert? What is a rae yirai?”

”It means he's a half yirai and half nyrae.”

”I already know him, he did mention before he was half something.”

”This is good, it's better for the group if you already know him.”

”What about this Nathan?” I asked.

”Nathan, he's different.”

”What do you mean by different?”

”He has a bit of a temper, especially with people which might not be like him, such as yourself.”

”So, I already have a friend.”

”But he will change once you get to know him.”

I doubt he would have, I needed more than just time.

”Don't worry, it might seem weird at first, but with time you'll be fine,” she said.

”Are you still reading my mind?”

”It's not my fault, your thoughts are really loud, and I am still trying to control myself.”

”Well, then I'll try not to think as loudly next time.”

I suddenly heard a blasting knock, as someone came in, she reminded me of Hayley strangely enough, except for the pointy ears and fair skin, ”Sarah Wilson and Mitsuko Kitsuname, you're next, follow me into Syrda's room,” she said.

”Sure, Ms Frehall,” Mitsuko said.

I was shaking at the thought of doing another test, what if it was as dreadful as the previous one. I did not feel my usual self, I have never been a coward or someone who would have been easily scared. While I was immersed in my thoughts, I saw Mitsuko gripping my hand firmly, as she tried to stop my nervous trembling.

”You won't be alone,” she whispered.

It was peculiar how despite knowing her for such a limited amount of time, I could perceive as she reassured me, a familiar sensation which made me feel secure.
