Alone
"Mom please stop, i'm sorry.."
"How did I end up with a weak son like you."
BANG!
Monday 8:30am
I shot up from my dream unable to control my breaths, must have been another one of those flashbacks. As I began to calm down, I rubbed the sleep from my eyes ignoring the never ending beeping sound ringing from the alarm clock on my desk.
The frosty bathroom tiles pinched at my feet but I didn't care. Making my way to the mirror, I ran a hand through my black hair staring at my reflection. Those "scary" red orbs staring me back.

Today was my first time at a real highschool or any school to be exact. I don't know why I decided to go, my therapist told me it would be a good opportunity to socialize and meet new people. I'm supposed to be graduating at the end of the school year so this whole social experiment seems useless to me. I've been alone for almost my whole life, I don't see a reason why I should start making connections with others. I'd rather stay at home and read books like always. In the distance I could see a large building surrounded by sakura trees. This must be Kosame High. The building grew closer and closer until i soon found myself at the main entrance to the school.

"Good Morning class."
"Good Morning Teacher."
My presence seemed to have caused a small commotion among the students. I lowered my head disliking the attention I was recieving.
"As you can see we have a new student with us today." The teacher announced.
"A new student out of nowhere?"
"He has a handsome face I wonder if he's single.."
"Look at his eyes, so scary!"
The teacher cleared her throat silencing the pupils instantly. She fixed her glasses continuing her sentence.
"This is Yuta Hiroshi please welcome him with kindness." She turned to look up at me with a smile and I stared back at her blankly causing her smile to twitch slightly.
"P-please take a seat at the back of the classroom next to the window." she quickly added breaking the silence between us.
I sat in my seat, my chin resting on my palm as I gazed at the view next to me. Pink blossoming trees swaying in rhythm with the calm and refreshing breeze that passed by. I felt a small paper ball hit my arm breaking the trance I was under. I picked it up and unravelled it trying my best to read the writing under the creases of the paper-
'meet me in the yard at break time ♡' - Anna
I lifted my head and saw a girl looking in my direction, she had long pink locks that were styled as twin-tails and she wore two bright red bows on each of them. Her lips were glossy and her eyes were huge and blue. She smiled and waved at me but I just tucked the note into my pocket and continued to admire the view outside.

It's break time, but I can't seem to find that girl anywhere. Just before I was about to give up and explore the rest of the school I heard a voice call out from behind me.
"Yuta!"
It was the same girl from class who gave me the note. She wore a huge smile on her face it was as if she had won the lottery or something. She caught up to me and stood close to my side.
"I'm Anna Sully, nice to meet you!" she held her hand out in front of me while I stood there with my hands in my pockets.
"You're a quiet one aren't you?" she laughed awkwardly lowering her arm. Is this how people connect? It felt so boring to me, do they have any books here? I was so lost in thought I didn't notice the slightly embarrassed Aiko below me. She must've thought I was ignoring her.
"sorry." I spoke.
She looked sort of shocked like she had thought that I didn't know how to talk. I turned away slightly as her gaze started making me uncomfortable.
"Hey how about we go somewhere private? We could get to know eachother a little more." She winked as she lead me back into the school and up the stairs.
On the school rooftop there weren't many students and it was quiet. However, I didn't enjoy it too much as I was still hanging out with little miss pinkie here. I felt her arms wrap around my bicep, she looked up at me smirking and asked-
"what are you thinking about yuta~?"
"Oh- nothing." I replied hesitantly at the sudden move she made. I felt a pair of eyes burning holes into the side of my neck, but when I turned to see who it was nobody was there. I quickly snatched my arm away from Aiko's grasp and started to make my way to the next period before the school bell rang.
"H-hey wait up." Anna yelled running after me.
