It is quarter to 10 in the morning, I looked in the mirror to check myself one last time as I'm coming to the park again that Kenma invited me to.

"Where are you going? A date?" My mother asked as she's walking down the stairs.

"Not really a date but-" I was cut off by my mom as she comes near me and I was shocked by her fixing my hair.

"When going on a date, you should look more of a woman, leave some few strands here and fix your dress, make sure to leave no wrinkles behind." She gently fixed my hair and dress as she smiled at me genuinely, it's my first time to see her smiling like this after my father left for business because he was a Deputy Chairman of a company. When I was 14 years old, he never returned, and we soon knew that he had an affair with his Assistant and now has his own family.

My mother had several breakdowns and made her mental health as well as her job unstable, she resigned but then immediately found a new job. and now she's a Property Manager at an Estate Company and that's why most of the time I'm home alone due to her job.




I arrived on time, at 10 a.m., and did exactly as I had done on our previous dates. I brought a mat and laid it on the lawn, and I prepared the food, hoping he would arrive on time, wouldn't let this sherbet melt for sure.

I waited for him until almost 10:20 a.m., but he didn't show up.

I tried contacting him several times but received no response, so I became concerned but also sad. I checked the sherbet and, as expected, it had melted.

I waited another ten minutes but received no response from him, I became worried and decided to return home.




A day passed and it's Monday again.

I haven't received any messages from Kenma.

I tried contacting Kuroo but he was also in the same situation.

I kept my head laid down on the table as Nora and my other classmates were talking at the corner of the classroom, probably exam results.

"Someone faaailed~" My classmates teased.

"Nah, just in a bad mood." I rolled my eyes and faced the wall, shifted my head away from them.

"Did something happen between you and Kenma?" Lev asked tilting his head so he can see me.

"I don't know, he hasn't been contacting me."

"Shibiyama! Come! Cheer this girl up, probably just need food or something." Lev shouted as he motioned Shibiyama to come.

"Will you shut up at least for once?" I argued as I hit him with my pencil.

We turned our heads to see Shibiyama standing beside us, his usual stoic expression on his face.

"So you just standing there is what you call cheering up?" Lev asked while secretly taking a sip on the soda that Nora just recently bought, he probably won't be seeing light if he got caught.

"How?" Shibayama asked confused as he shrugged.

"Well you just-" Lev was cut off as soda was splashed in his face, staining his uniform.

"Who tf?!" Lev got on his feet, ready to punch whoever squeezed the bottle he was holding to his face, but he quickly backed down when he saw Nora glaring at him, noticing he had been caught stealing her soda.

"Is that a death wish?" Nora argued then wasted no time climbing into Lev's shoulders and punching and pulling his hair like a monkey on a tree while the poor Shibiyama was trying to calm them down.
