Volume 2 Chapter 47: The Principal
"Are we in big trouble?" Keith scratched his head. Everyone was now sitting in a hallway.
They were waiting for the principal to call them in. After the incident, he was brought to the principal's office.
Julius was laughing the entire time, "I can't believe you caused such a ruckus in such a short time!" They were gone for half an hour. At most!
He never expected Keith to cause such a big scene.
"Don't laugh." William shook his head.
Alvin patted Keith's head, "You don't have to worry about anything, Keith. Worst case, we'll blame it on James."
"Wait, what?! Why am I taking the brunt of it?!" This wasn't part of the plan!
"Because you're the one who said it was okay." Alvin decided the moment James gave the go, he would take the fall.
"Are you kidding me?!" James shook his head. While they waited, Carolyn rubbed her belly,
"I'm so full."
"Po!" "Me too." Mir and Fira did the same thing as they lay in Keith's lap.
"Keith, why didn't you give me that job of eating?" James stared at the two, a little envious. Those three probably ate six plates each!
"What were you cooking, Keith?" Camelia asked. She was more interested in what Keith cooked.
"Ahh, I made a noodle dish," Keith answered. Before he could explain, the vice-principal, Sohma, called them,
"You can enter now." The family was led into the room.
And a man sat at a desk. He had black hair that was darker than night. But his eyes were a beautiful turquoise color. That wasn't the thing that was eye-catching about him. His pupils were vertical.
"Cool." Keith couldn't help but blurt out. William and the rest couldn't help but stare at him. Keith tilted his head.
Did I say that out loud?
The man smiled and asked, "What do you think is cool, child?"
"I thought your eyes were cool." Keith wasn't going to hide it.
"Haha." The man laughed, "This is the first time I heard someone call my eyes like that."
"But it looks cool. It gives you this cool image." Keith explained. Is my taste weird? While Keith was lost in thought, Carolyn was hiding behind him.
"What's wrong, Carolyn?" She was shivering.
"Scary."
"Hmm? What's scary?" Keith was confused. Eric asked,
"Keith, do you not feel the principal's pressure?"
"What pressure?" Keith felt nothing. But he noticed Derek and the rest. Their expressions looked weird and contorted. William and the rest of the adults were alright.
Sohma sighed, "Principal, don't harm the kids."
"I was just testing them." The man laughed and asked, "Do you guys feel better now?"
"Mmmhmm." Derek's expression returned to normal. Carolyn continued to hide behind Keith as she stared at the principal. The principal turned to Keith,
"You're an interesting fellow."
"I hear that a lot." Keith laughed. The number of times he heard this was too much.
"But that's to be expected when you contracted to the Samuis." The principal chuckled.
"Wait, what?!" "The Samuis?!" When the principal revealed this, besides Keith's family knowing, the rest were shocked.
"You guys don't know? That's a baby on his head," The principal stated as he pointed at Mir, who was resting on Keith's head.
"That's a baby Samui?!" They never expected that Snowball would be a legendary monster!
"Bo." Mir yawned, bored of this conversation.
"He's also contracted with a spirit as well." The principal added.
"Hello!" Fira waved her hands.
"..." The rest couldn't help but gasp at this sudden revelation. But the principal ignored them and introduced himself,
"My name is Cadmus. I'm the principal of the Academy."
"Hello, my name is Keith." Keith bowed his head. Cadmus smiled,
"Keith, it seems you caused trouble at my academy today."
"That was my fault." Keith lowered his head and explained,
"I wanted to make a stall because there wasn't any food. Please don't punish my brother."
"Keith." Alvin didn't think he would say that.
"Relax, kid. I'm not here to punish you." Cadmus laughed,
"Well, I was. But I'm curious about some things."
"Hmm?"
"Now that I've seen it, you're contracted to the Samui. But the baby on your head doesn't seem to be the main contractor."
"Ahh, that's because Shiro was the one who contracted with me."
"Shiro?"
"Yeah. Shiro is Mir's father. This baby is here because he stowed away in our carriage." Keith stated as he took Mir off his head.
"Bo!" Mir roared.
But Keith added, "You keep forgetting that Miyuki is going to spank you when you return home, right?"
"Po!" The baby completely forgot about this.
"And I'm not helping you with that. I don't want Miyuki to be angry with me." Keith wasn't jumping into that fire. The thought was enough to cause him to shiver.
"Po." Mir stuck out his tongue and tried to act cute.
Keith sighed, "Acting cute isn't going to help you. Miyuki almost went cataclysmic last time. And this time is probably worse. So be prepared."
"Booo!" Mir was about to cry.
"Haha, I have never seen anyone talk with Samui like that. Have you, Sohma?"
"Never." Sohma was amazed at the sight of him talking to Mir. But the bigger surprise was how the others stared at him.
