Chapter 45: Days With You

I wonder where should I begin my story?

Well I guess for starters, I should start from the very beginning. That should let you understand things better....

Well then, play close attention to what I am about to say.

After all, this story.....

Is all about me and you, *****.

...

I have been living for the rest 11 years and I could summarize all those 11 years with just three words.

My life sucks.

Though for a period of five years since I was born, it was less unamusing than it was now... oh well, not that I would delve deeper into that part of life...

Just that... you could say, with my mom around... life was at least worth living.... ah, I sound like someone that had given on life. No, no. I mostly had not given up on life. Mom dying was already enough of a damage to dad and my younger sister. No good would come to them if news got out that their eldest died because of 'lack of fun in life'

Sigh. But still. My days had always been boring. Even now, as I sat here on my desk beside to this bubbly girl who gave off this aura 'Please look at me!', was dull. She was like everyone else. Always looking at me as if I was the villain in their story. Oh well, a story without villain would be lacking of productivity anyway. Too bad no one here is worthy of being a villain in MY story....

Worthless and useless people like them are just a waste of my time. But then again, maybe.. just maybe if I had tried to garner their attention... just maybe my days would be brimming with life....

...on second thought, nevermind. Just dealing with them in this class alone was too much of a hassle.

Again, the day passed by in a flash and again, the bell rang signifying the end of the first period. And again, I would walk away to the roof to enjoy my lunch. Again, this annoying would come up at me to ask me to teach her.. wait, that never happened before.

"Please teach me, Kyouhei-kun!"

"Huh?"

"I'll be waiting for you after school hours at the classroom so please do come! Oh! I have to meet Mizu-chii! Bye!"

With that, the annoying girl was long gone. Just what was wrong with her? First, she came at me and not to mention calling me with my name, heck we barely know each other! Then, without wasting a breath, she asked me to see her after school hours to teach her.

As if something like that would happen. There was no way that I would be going to do that. There was no way.

Yet, why was I here in my room, feeling some sort of guilt for ditching her today? I looked at the clock at it was pass school hours. Well no use trying to regret over it....

"Huh? You have got to be kidding me!"

Rummaging through my bag, I could not find my exercise book. This was bad! I need that book. Not to mention the work that was supposed to be done on that book have to submitted tomorrow, I left behind my wallet!

"Argh! Of all things!"

Luckily the gatekeeper of the school was pretty lax and allowed me to enter the school despite it supposedly being close.

"Sigh. What luck. I was never this clumsy... was I paying much thought to that offer that girl made?"

That was a stupid suggestion. I barely knew her. All I know was that she was the school athelete and had this happy-go-lucky character. Surely a pain to deal with. There was no way that I would paying her much attention.
