I got out of my class at exactly 5:00 PM.
"I'll go home" I told Jin.
Fumi's having an organization meeting. Since a university-wide event is happening I think she's part of it.
"You don't want to eat?" he asked.
"Nope, I need to get some sleep" I answered.
"Ok! Take care and message me and Fumi once you get home"
"Yeah I will, thanks!"
I did not get enough sleep yesterday. I did something embarrassing and it's with Hiro again.
Maybe I should really keep myself away from him.
But he is just appearing out of nowhere!
Ever since I met him at the playground, he just keeps appearing.
I don't even know him before that! I know his friends but not him.
Everytime I remember how I hugged and cried in front of him, I just feel embarrassed.
What's even worse is that everything is my fault! I'm afraid that he thinks I'm annoying and keeps on bugging him.
"E-excuse me sir, are you okay?" I heard some heavy breathing behind me.
The old lady lift his head up and he seems a bit fazed... Wait is that—
"H-hiro?!"
It's him again!!!
See?!
He's always appearing out of nowhere! Somebody must be playing tricks with me!
"H-hey Ayumi—"
He fell.
He fell?!
"Hiro?!" I immediately went to him and I can see him breathing heavily.
"Hey idiot! Were you running?! Why did you run so hard if you can't even breathe!!!"
The old lady beside me helped me to lean his back at the wall.
"Thank you so much!" I said to the old lady.
What should I do?!
"Hey Hiro! Are you conscious?" He is opening his eyes but he is not responding.
I grabbed my water bottle from my bag and gave it to him.
"Can you drink Hiro? Can you drink this?"
He nodded his head.
"I'll call an ambulance—"
"N-no. I'm good..." he stopped my hand.
"Why are you even running? Do you have any heart conditions?"
He shook his head. "I-I'll just r-rest" he said.
"What the hell are you thinking!"
He took a few sips at my water bottle.
"Are you feeling better now?" I'm fanning him.
"Y-yeah, s-sorry" he said.
I sat beside him. We're beside the road.
Good thing there's only a few people passing by.
"I j-just wanted to e-exer—"
"Yeah stop talking first and breathe" I told him.

I ended up bringing him to the university clinic. I can't just leave him there! He's still catching his breathe when we came here.
"What are you even thinking running like that" I said.
He did not answered me.
"Yeah okay ignore me"
"N-nothing." He answered. He looks better now compared earlier. He was all red earlier. He looked like a tomato.
"You can go home now if you want, I'll stay for a while here first" he said.
"O-okay... Just don't pass out again. This is your second time passing out in front of me"
"Yeah... sorry about that" he is hiding the sheets.
"I'll go. Please don't overdo yourself! Or just don't do it in front of me!"
He laughed from what I said.
"Yeah yeah, sorry."
I grabbed my bag and waved goodbye to him. I left the infirmary and went straight home.

I will be having dinner with my family because it's my little brother's birthday!
That means, we have a lot of food!!!
"Ayumi! Did you got the cake?" my mom asked.
"Yeah! It's on the fridge already"
My brother is not yet home and we plan to surprise him.
My dad is preparing our gifts and my mom is preparing the table.
I love birthdays! There's a lot of food!
We heard the front door opened so we immediately gathered together at the porch to surprise my brother.
As the door opened, we shouted happy birthday together.
"Happy Birthday Ino!" we said in unison.
My dad opened his party popper and my mom gave him a birthday hat.
"W-what... Thank you..." he was so shy.
"Look who's shy!" I teased him.
"Come on Ino! I'm hungry!" I pulled him to the living room to let him open the gifts.
"Open the pink one!" Because that's mine!
"Yeah yeah" he said.
He opened it and it's a "what's this?!"
"It's your one box supply of boxers!"
He was furious. "Hahahaha!!! Hey! That's useful! Don't be mad at me"
He threw my gift at the sofa. "Hey! Why did you throw my gift?!"
"Who's this?" he ignored me.
"That's mine!" my father said.
He opened it and it's a "wow! this is a cool coat!"
"Yeah I saw you eyeing that last time at the mall" my dad said.
"Thanks dad"
"Open mine!" My mother said
Ino opened the blue bag that my mother gave him.
"Mom... thank you!"
What?!
"Mom you gave him a camera?! What about me?!" My mom was a professional photographer before.
But she never gave cameras on my birthdays!
"I'll buy you soon if I have the money again" she said.
"Okay fine! But let's eat!"
I can't wait to eat my mom's dishes! Everything looks so good!
