*January 23 2008

Another cold day in Japan, It's less cold than other days but still honestly really cold, Simon does his normal daily routine, but decides to read, well, I may say listen to his Bible, Kid A, he's been having trouble with something, he received a message that someone has a crush on him (What a genius) but he has no clue who. He listens to Kid A and just relaxes for once, Class starts a little later today so he has some time to fix some work, he does some schoolwork and decides to head off to school, after all he has nothing better to do. While walking, he often thinks to himself* 

"Who sent me that message, and who the heck has a crush on me? (What a wise guy) I don't even want a girlfriend, that would mean less money for me.... (Rich Kid)"

*He finally arrives in school, and he thinks he's the only one so far, he smiles and heads off to his class, unfortunately for him, someone's already in class, none other than Emma. Emma sees him and says* 

"Oh, you really thought you would be the first in class today again? Not today though." 

"You got me, I even left home a little bit earlier" *He replies* 

*She giggles* "Then what took you so long?"

*Simon just looks down* "Nothing, really."

"It doesn't seem like nothing" *Emma responds* 

"Don't worry, it is." *Simon affirms* 

"Come on.... Tell me what it is!" *Emma begs* 

"Please no...." *Simon says*

"Please?" *Emma begs with puppy eyes in her face, and it doesn't seem like she's gonna take no for an answer* 

"Fine...." *Simon finally gives in* 

"So what is it?" *Emma asks* 

"Well.." *Simon pulls out his phone* "I got a message the other day"

"And what was it about?" *Emma asks*

"It was from a unknown number, I don't usually give my number to most people, so I don't know how they got it, I don't think I even gave it to you yet." *Simon says*

"That's right" *Emma responds* "And you better give it!" 

"Haha, one of these days." *Simon responds* 

"Well, just say it, what did the number say?" *Emma is at the edge of our seat at this point* 

"They basically said that someone has a crush on me, and they know who it is." *Simon says* 

"HUH??" *Emma says out loud* 

"I know right! Like who's crazy to have a crush on me! I'm really quiet! Of all choices, why me?" *Simon says out loud*

"Yeah...They must be crazy..." *Emma says quieter, think that she could've gotten found out that she has a crush on Simon, and that she's crazy* "Did they at least say who it was?"

"Nah, they didn't, probably wants me to find out or something." *Simon replies* 

*Emma has a relieved looking face and says* "Well maybe...Good luck with the search.."

"Thanks, I guess." *Simon says* "Excuse me for a bit, restroom." 

"Alright, see you." *Emma says a farewell* 

*Once Simon has left the classroom, Emma blushes very hard, thinking that she's gotten caught having a crush on Simon, nobody knows about it other than Tom and Aoi, so who could've found out, and how can she confirm it's her after all? She doesn't have any friends to tell on, +, Aoi and Tom has never even had a conversation with Simon at least, so no one could've known, at last she let's out a small word.*
