3rd Person POV:

Darren just groaned when Rosseweisse walked into the class.

Rosseweisse: Due to the absence of Shiori Itsuka...

Darren gritted his teeth and almost cracked them before Alya walked in.

Rosseweisse: We'll have Alisa Mikhailovna Kujou join us from today onwards.

Alya gave off a bow before everyone stared at her.

Kurayami: It's Kujou...

Darren stared off into the distance before placing his head on his arms and sleeping. Alya placed her bag on her table before glancing at Darren.

Alya: Good morning, Itsuka.

Darren just continued to sleep and ignored her.

Darren: (How the hell does everyone know me now...?)

Alya kicked the chair leg of Darren's chair which caused him to slip.

Darren: AH!

Alya: Good morning, Itsuka. What's got you sleeping so early in the morning?

Darren adjusted himself back on the chair before staring at Alya.

Darren: Good morning, Alya. Well, I'm just tired, I guess.

All of our classmates just stared at Darren and Alya before whispering to each other while Kurayami took out some popcorn that Darren had never seen him have before.

Alya: May I ask what's got you sleeping so late?

Darren: Well... you can say I was up too late watching anime.

Darren just looked away in embarrassment.

Darren: (That was actually a lie, I stayed up late to fix my suit since it was still destroyed from the Igris fight.)

Darren POV:

Alya just sighed at me while I leaned back in my chair.

Alya: Sacrificing sleep just to watch anime. You'll definitely feel sleepy in school like this.

Alya sat down while I lifted a finger.

Darren: That's true, but I finished my anime at 1 am. I ended up talking about my feedback for too long.

Alya just stared at me, puzzled in her thought.

Alya: Feedback? Do you mean like sharing your feedback online?

Darren: That wasn't the case. I called my best friend and we chatted for about two hours about my feedback. 

Alya: Are you stupid?

Darren: A fool? Maybe that is the case, if I'm a fool for expressing my love for a piece of work regardless of time and space, then maybe I really am a fool.

Alya stared at the blackboard before sighing in disapproval and stared at me with a cold expression.

Alya: I think you're a hopeless fool.

Darren: Aren't you being a bit too harsh there? W-wow, that's a nice blizzard you have today as well.

I started to yawn before I stared at Alya staring at me.
