Eclipse

🌸📒chapter 4 🌸📒

Ignoring the pseudo blonde with an obnoxious shirt, she made a beeline towards Kotoha who seemed to understand why she's back, taking out Sakura's phone out of her apron's pocket.

"How'd it go?" Kotoha said as Sakura sat down on the chair beside the still standing student. Answering her question with a sigh, Kotoha chuckled as she continued to clean the table. Feeling a stare,  Sakura looked at the boy beside her who continued to stare at her in wonder.

"What ?" Sakura said as she turned her body towards the boy. Suddenly, the boy stuttered out an answer, waving his hands around. Seeing something swinging behind him Sakura pointed at it.

"The tag is still on." The boy stopped and looked behind himself, seeing the tag he once again let out an embarrassed mutterings before trying and failing to get the tag. Sakura just sighed and pulled the end of the boy's jacket causing him to nearly topple on top of her. Removing the tag on the jacket she noticed another one on his pants, removing it she tossed it to the blond after she let his jacket go.

"Ah.. t-thank you, I was so excited to finally go to school and be a member of Bofurin that I forgot to remove the tag when I got it from the cleaners. " The boy said as Sakura looked at him with a deadpanned gaze before looking at Kotoha who chuckled.

"This is Nirei, a first year student like you. Nirei, this is Sakura she's gonna be your yearmate or hopefully, a classmate." Kotoha said at Nirei who looked at Sakura, specifically her hair. Feeling conscious of how the boy stared at her, Sakura looked at him with a bit of a glare.

"What you looking at?" Sakura said, voice rough like a delinquents who litters the alleyways. Nirei looked startled, a bit taken aback by the way the girl spoke Infront of him.

"Ah- sorry, it's just that your hair..." Sakura tightened her grip on her phone, waiting for Nirei's comment. Kotoha seeing this tried to signal the blonde , unfortunately he didn't seem to register what she's trying to convey.

"Are you that busy that the stress made your hair white?" Sakura looked at Nirei, mouth gaping as Kotoha doubled over clutching her mouth to prevent her laughter from coming out. Sakura blushed red from embarrassment, standing up abruptly making the chair screech.

"You wanna fight?!?! I'll beat you to a pulp!" Sakura said as she positioned herself into an attack. Seeing her action, Nirei waved his hand around.

"It's not that, it's just that... It's kinda rare to see that type of hair color...and your eyes too" The blonde said, his voice slowly turning into whispers as he continued to look at the the aggravated girl.

"Besides that Don't you know, Furin isn't an ordinary school! A few years back the town is in shambles but Bofurin stepped up to protect the town! They defeat evil to protect the weak! They are the protectors, the heroes of this town! And now I'm part of that group!!" Nirei said enthusiastically. Sakura can only stop her scowling face as she take in what the blonde just said, it is proven by what she saw the day before after all. Looking at the boy, Sakura raised her eyebrows as he reads through his notebook.

"Anyways, I can't seem to find your name , what's an outsider like you doing in makotchi much less enrolling to Furin. What's your goal?" Nirei asked as he once again looked over his notes.

"To take the top spot of the school." Sakura said as she pocketed her phone before she crossed her arms across her chest. Nirei just looked at her incredulously. Silence took of the shop for a while before Nirei opened his mouth.

"Something like that is impossible..... After all.." Kotoha looked at Sakura first, who was glaring slightly as the blonde continued speaking, feeling a bit of expectancy waiting for what was to happen.
