It's similar to getting numb in your leg or arm, little needles running through your flesh, but this time it's not as intense, nor in a random pattern like static on a television screen.
You feel them in waves, coursing through your interior, making you aware of your organs and cavities in a way that makes you somewhat nauseated.
What makes you alert is that after a few seconds, the sensation becomes focused on you. As if responding to a consciousness that has designated you as an object of interest, the weak waves become a flow of discomfort focused on your chest.
"Yuu-san? Are you okay?" Your friend asks again, and from your peripheral vision you can see how Hanako is starting to worry.
You ignore them to stare around you, trying to figure out where this strange sensation comes from.
Your view soon falls on a group of students gathered to one side of the school gates, chatting happily.
Nothing about the boys and girls seems abnormal, but that doesn't stop you from convincing yourself that what's happening to you is somehow connected to them.
"Yuu-kun?" Hanako whispers next to you, having crossed the distance between you without your realizing it. "You look pale. Are you feeling alright?"
You manage to nod and move forward with your gaze fixed on the group.
With each step you take, the intensity of the flow remains stable, making it easy to confirm that whatever's going on is tied to the guys there, which now that you're closer, you see their faces.
There are new members that you didn't know about, but you're sure they are from the Paranormal Club, having seen a high quality and dedicated presentation from them last year about the different types of ghosts of the local folklore and their legends.
