Chapter: The riddle
In the days that followed, I kept trying to find out something about this yami. It's not like I'm always that curious about people. But I was bored with school and so I was looking for something to stimulate my brain cells. Unfortunately, Yami was not an entertaining person and often seemed unresponsive. Did he have to think about something all the time? I wasn't talented in psychoanalysis, so I preferred to gather my information from observations and occasional conversations.
What I had noticed by then:
- Yami was good at almost all subjects, but he didn't seem particularly interested.
- He often asked questions for which one was not prepared and not only in the school area.
- His life was very irregular.
The first conclusion was not difficult to understand, because he was able to answer almost all tricky questions from the teaching staff right away and successfully mastered the exams, but in the classroom Yami was mostly absent-minded.Sometimes he said nothing at all during class to unexpectedly throw a question into the room that turned everything apparently clear into unclear.
Once he asked me during the break if I believed in my fate and that in connection with an upcoming important test. Of course, I couldn't think of a plausible answer ...
He came to school rather irregularly, was often late and was absent for a few hours each week.
I didn't know why I should aim for such conclusions, but I hadn't found a better job for school. At least I was able to discover something new almost every day, which mentally compensates me for the daily school attendance ...
Yami didn't seem to want to stay in the group long. So a loner. I sometimes thought about what made it such an interesting research subject for me. He wasn't very tall, but he was well built, slim and there was something elegant and proud about him.His large, watchful eyes could be quite unsettling if you met them directly. In addition, he didn't seem to lack intelligence and self-confidence, which made him mysterious but also a little creepy. He had nothing personal against me (I just found it that way), but the way he spoke often made me feel like I had been seen through. What did he know about me? Did he notice that I was secretly watching him? If so, what reason did he assume that I was there? I had the feeling that with more and more information I could unfortunately draw fewer and fewer new conclusions.
That was exactly the difference between Yami and the others. Yami could not be fathomed by such apparent observations.
