"what the hell is your deal, buzzcut?"

the mentioned boy's eyes widen in fear, "B-B-BAROU!?"

"I AM SO SORRY YOUR- YOUR KINGLYNESS!"

he frantically goes into a deep bow with his hands on his knees, the sweatdrops forming on his forehead dripping to the ground. his posture is so stiff it almost makes you laugh out of instinct.

"tch... take your sorry ass and get inside. the next time you pull something like this..."

you can't make sense of what he said in reply as he was scrambling back on his feet and wiping his hands on his trousers before quickly snatching his skateboard and rushing inside the classroom. 

you would have slumped your shoulders in relief that you didn't bust your head open, but the menacing presence behind you stopped you, the hairs on your neck standing up straight.

"damned coward didn't even say sorry..." he lets you go and spares you a glance, "you okay?"

you gulped, "y-yeah... thanks."

if anything would ever go your way, you'd have just left it at that and headed back inside just in time for the lecture, but of course, nothing ever really did.

rumi's loud voice echoed throughout the halls, "WOW BAROU!! THAT WAS SO COOL, YOU SAVED (n/n) LIKE A TRUE PRINCE! or wait... would king be more fitting?"

aryu nodded alongside her, "yes, that catch was quite glam if i do say so myself."

he scoffed and headed inside, not sparing a single one of you another glimpse. and you were thankful, you did not need your friends to embarrass you even more.

"class is gonna start soon, i'll catch up with you guys at lunch, okay?"

they nodded and bid you their goodbyes, a smirk on rumi's face.

with that you finally got past the door and into the classroom. the room was spatious, yet many seats were already taken by your fellow classmates. mostly everyone looked as if they didn't wanna be here, but who could blame them?

you contemplate on where to sit and spotted the buzzcut boy and barou. and before you could make another step, someone was whisper-yelling at you.

"hey, new girl! psst, come sit next to me!!!"

your eyes look around in confusion before landing on a boy with black and yellow hair ushering you to come on over. you hesitantly walk up to him and he pulls out the chair beside him, patting it.

"you can sit here, theres nobody sitting in this row anyways!"

"oh, thanks. you are...?"

he smiles brightly, "i'm bachira meguru, its nice to finally meet you!"

"me too! wait... what do you mean finally?"

he gasps, "you don't know? everybody's been talking about you! well you are foreign and no one has come here before because, you know, this program being so new and all, i guess you could say-"

you slowly zone out, looking off at the board in front of you with a tired expression. you knew it'd be weird, but not this weird to the others. "ughhhh... just my luck." whatever. the rumors would die down within a week.

bachira pauses in the middle of his rambling and looks at you with curiosity, "hey, would you like to-"

"quiet, quiet, you unpolished gems. i am jinpachi ego. and my job will is to make you all pass this class. statistics."
