My New Life

Chapter 1: An Interesting Man

He was an interesting man, I must admit.

Walking through the bus, I sat across from the confident, and muscular, blond man who was wearing the same uniform as I was, wishing to get to know him more.

"H-hello." I greeted, sending an awkward smile his way.

He smiled back with confidence, showing off his dashingly white teeth.

"I see that in just three minutes someone has come to realize my magnificence, greetings handsome-kun."

Handsome, me? And here I thought I'd fixed myself so as to not stand out yet.

Or maybe this person just had a good eye?

"Handsome?" I asked, perplexed.

"Indeed, under those disheveled locks and messy appearance, you are a handsome existence, not on the level of myself of course but undeniably one." He responded.

This man talked strange, whenever he speaks, it's not as if he's belittling anyone, but rather it's more like he's just better.

He's speaking as though he were a king, but says nothing to make you feel like a servant.

"How strange." I mumbled to myself.

I rose a hand out.

"My name is Tensai Shizukana, it's nice t-to meet you." I introduced.

The man rose a brow at me, before letting out a soft laugh, clasping his hand in mine to form a firm handshake.

"Of course it is, handsome-kun, I am Koenji Rokusuke." Koenji replied, introducing himself.

"I-indeed."

This character is a strange one, he seems quite intelligent, he's undoubtably good looking and muscular, but based on the conversation just now he seems to be an egomaniac, if that were fixed this man could easily be the most popular in the grade.

Alas, it seems to be etched into his heart.

"What is it that brought you to ANHS Koenji-kun?" I asked, wanting to know this person more.

"It's proclamation of being the best, the best cuisine, the best bedding, the best teachers, the best in intelligence. A being such as I deserves only the best, any less is a nuisance and unnecessary." He humoured me, smiling all the while.

Yes, he doesn't seem to belittle others, he just seems to think, or rather know, that he's higher on the podium, all he does is state facts.

"Ah, f-for me, I just want to go into politics, I-I'm sure coming here would help me with that." I said, answering my own question.

There was no doubt about it, he didn't care, but he listened all the same.

If it doesn't concern him, he won't care, but that doesn't mean he won't listen.

What an interesting character indeed.

He hummed, closing his eyes as he crossed one leg up over the other, his confidence gushing off his being.

"It appears I am being approached." He stated.

True to his words, I stopped, looked around the bus and noticed a lady walking towards us, as though to berate us.

But we've done nothing wrong, have we?

No, we haven't, that I'm sure of, Koenji has been the main focus of mine ever since the two of us entered this bus at the same stop, unless he'd managed to do something with the speed of light when I'd taken my eyes off of him, he couldn't have done anything.
