Chapter 2: A hard school day and our first meeting

Two weeks had passed now. The dreams had not returned and so life took its usual course. Lefia still dawdled around in the morning, as Maya prophesies, and yet every morning she stood in front of the door and waded.
but today was something different. Maya was actually too late! And that for a whole five minutes ...
Something can't be right there, thought Lefia. The black-haired woman was about to leave her apartment when she collided with something big. She was about to fall backwards into her apartment when someone grabbed her by the arm and pulled her back with a jerk.
A sudden pain flashed through her head at this touch and in a tiny second she saw the figure in the strange robe again. But as quickly as this image was projected in front of her inner eye, so quickly it disappeared again, as did the pain from her head.Now Lefia waited with narrowed eyes that she would find herself on the floor again. But she didn't fall. She only felt a hand that had firmly gripped her arm.
They carefully opened their eyes again, looked up and saw two lilac colored eyes, which examined them closely.
"Sorry, did you do something?" Asked the young man and let go of Lefia's arm again. She just shook her head and then looked at her watch.
"Oh shit, I'm late," she whispered and then looked up at the man again.
"No, I'm fine. Thank you for helping me, but unfortunately I have to go now.", Added the black-haired woman and was already down the stairs, towards the front door.
The fear that she might be late drove the thought of the man from her dream, whom she had already seen again. Lefia had hoped the dreams would finally settle, but she'd been wrong on the face of it.But why did it come back now of all times?
I didn't do anything at the moment, except that this man protected me from falling, which could have been extremely painful.
She opened the door and shortly after opening it, Maya came running up to her and simply pulled her friend behind her, because it would not have been worth stopping again.
"Come on, or we'll be too late and that won't have any good results, as we have math in the first lesson today and you know Minazuki-Sensei.", The blonde called over her shoulder and made her way through the crowd.
This argument made Lefia legs and both women ran to school as fast as possible.

You were almost at the classroom when the school bell rang.
Oh, no, now we're too late after all, she thought and looked over at Maya, who returned her gaze.
The two of them carefully opened the door a crack, but before they knew it, they had a piece of paper in their hand."Well, you both think you could do anything? You are too late and that will have consequences, contact me after class and I don't want to see you here again. I close both of you from today Hour out. ", Minazuki-Sensei said without drying and without taking a breath and then closed the door behind him.
Maya and Lefia stared at the note, puzzled, then hung their heads in resignation.
Then they got up again and went to the school yard, where the two students sat down on a bench.
"Great, now we were so quick and came too late.", Maya sighed and then looked up at the sky.
"But there's something good about it. At least we don't have to sit in the stuffy room now."
Lefia sighed.
"I don't know what's good about having to go to detention for the rest of the week and work through all the missing material independently, but what the heck, we can't change it either."For a moment they sat in silence on the bench and enjoyed the sun that they had
seemed warm on their faces. Then the black-haired woman turned to her friend and looked at her questioningly.
"Tell me, was there anything this morning? You have never been late ...", she then demanded to know and a serious expression settled on her face.
"Oh, I was racking my brain about what to wear at this step party that is going to be going on next week in 'Night' (I couldn't think of anything better-. -). I forgot the time about that and when I checked my watch It was a quarter to eight. But it still didn't work, I still don't know what to wear. ", the blonde sighed, but then her expression brightened and she looked at Lefia with a sneaky grin.
However, she knew this grinning and raised her hands defensively.
"Forget it, I hate parties and you know that very well. Besides, I already told you I wasn't going there."she said, shaking her head so that her long black hair flew around her face.
But Maya didn’t let herself get down that easily. She put a dog look that even Lefia couldn't resist and she knew it too.
"Oh pleaseeee ~ ...", she added and that was enough to break the will of the dark-eyed ones. She hung her head in resignation, tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and nodded tentatively.
"Well, you persuaded me. But this is the only time that I go to something like that and I already know that I -...", she wanted to say, but was interrupted by the stormy embrace of Lefia.
"Thank you, I love you."
Now she couldn't even be angry with the blonde. So Lefia closed her arms around her friend.
"I know, otherwise you wouldn't be friends with me and have been for several years."
But then it was time to go back to class. Otherwise Minazuki-sensei would get even angrier.Exhausted, the girl collapsed on her bed.
He really knows no mercy ..., Lefia thought and closed her eyes for a moment. She had just returned home from school after she and Maya cleaned several classrooms. Then he had persuaded them that this shouldn't happen again, because then they wouldn't get away with just one day of cleaning.
She straightened up a bit stiffly and was about to disappear into the bathroom when the doorbell rang.
"I'm coming!" Lefia called from the bathroom and quickly put on her skirt again, which she had already taken off.
She opened the door and a young man stood across from her who somehow looked familiar.
"Hey, I just wanted to give you this quickly. You lost it when you ran against me this morning.", The white-haired man greeted her and held out the letter to her.
Lefia recognized him as the one her parents had recently sent her."Thanks ... uh ..",
"Isthtar, Marik Isthtar.", He helped her with a smile and gave Lefia his hand.
She took this a little hesitantly. But when her hands touched, the same pain passed through her like this morning and she felt her legs threatening to bend ...
