3rd POV

Yap: [Yes, home...]

On their first day of class in the IS Academy, the first thing both Yap and Ichika found was that they were surrounded by female students. Ichika was visibly nervous, while Yap played it cool, unruffled by the attention that were directed upon them.

Student 1: [How did we have boys entering this academy?]

Student 2: [One of them looks really nervous, but the other is just so cool! Kkkyyyaaa!]

A teacher then enters, who introduces herself as Maya Yamada.

Yamada: I'm the deputy homeroom teacher, Maya Yamada.

Everyone only stared at Yamada, not saying anything. This somewhat made her nervous, causing her to stutter a little.

Yamada: W-well, starting today, you're students of IS Academy. This school is an all-boarding school, so you'll all be together during and after school. Let's help each other and make it a fun 3 years.

Yamada's attempts to break the ice were met with silence, she suggested they introduce themselves, going by attendance number.

Ichika: (Nervously looks to Houki) Houki..

Yap: (Mentally sighs in disappointment) [Man up, Ichika.]

Said girl hears her name being called by Ichika, who then looks away.

Yap: [..... Pretty sure that's not how childhood friends interact but oh well. None of my business.]

Ichika: (Shocked) [You don't have to be so cold toward a childhood friend you've just been reunited with after 6 years... Does she hate me?]

While Ichika was lost in his thoughts, his name was called by Yamada a few times, making him raise his voice a little, most of the class giggling at him, and Yamada apologizing but telling him they're at 'O' now. As for Yap.. he only closed his eyes in an attempt to tell anyone who's looking at him that he's not bothered with this at all and just wants to get this done and over with as soon as possible.

Yamada: Could you introduce yourself? Or do you not want to?

Ichika: You don't have to apologize so much.

Reluctantly standing up and putting his hands on the table, Ichika prepares his introduction.

Ichika: I'm Ichika Orimura. Nice to meet you all.

Even though he said that, Yap could still very much feel the nervousness in his voice. Once Ichika was done introducing himself, all of the students in the class other than Yap looked at him. 

Taking a look at Houki again, said girl only turns her head away from Ichika.

Yap: [Probably got PTSD or something... I dunno. My guess would be something happened in between them and.. well, let's just say she got traumatized and angry at Ichika.]

SoVR: That is very much possible. By the way, Miss Orimura is entering soon.

Yap: [Wait, what?]

SoVR: She's the homeroom teacher for this class, remember?

Yap: [Ah, right, right..]

SoVR: And knowing Ichika, well...

Yap: [Let's just say he's receiving at least 2 hits from Miss Orimura later on.]

Ichika: [If I stay silent here, everyone's gonna think I'm an emo.]

Ichika takes a deep breath, causing Yamada to step in front a little with some concern with the students looking at him as well.
