To Live A Life

Manami Sangaku

Walking to school slowly, I watched as other students passed me. Not giving me a second glance. Walking down the hill, I have to be extra careful. If I slip, I'll fall all the way down the hill. As an hour past by, I'm the only one on the hill still making my way to school. A boy rushes by me on his bike. I want to ride so much..He's going really fast but presses his breaks. " Hey your going to be even more late if you keep walking that slow.." he states as I ignore him.. I walk past him and he just shrugs and rides by again and before I know it, he's gone. An hour later, u make it to class. The first day of school and I'm 2 hours late. I walk into the class room. The teacher looks at me and I bow.. he motions for me to sit down. ' why isn't the teacher scolding her. She's 2 hours late!' The students repeated after each other. One boy didn't say anything.. he just smiled at me. " Hey you made it before school ended." He said once again spoke to me and I again ignored him.. " my names Manami Sangaku. What's your name.." he asked. I looked away from him and out the window. The lunch bell rang. A girl with pig tails walked up to me.. " Sangaku, stop Harrah ing the girl and you Kimoto Mamoru are late.. I can not.." she was stopped by the teacher clearing his trout giving her a hard look. " Miyahara.. come with me for a second.." he stated as the class president sulked and followed the teacher out of the class room. The whispering started again.. I pulled out my lunch and began eating it.. he did the same but on my desk.. " so your name is Kimoto Mamoru. You can call me Manami r Sangaku.. which ever one you like.. why did you come in late? Did you wake up late or do you live really far.. if you live far why don't you ride a bike???" I stopped eating and placed chopsticks down.. " Manami Sangaku.. leave me alone and don't speak to me " I growled as he stepped back in suprise.. he then grinned. " so you like bikes.. you finally reacted when I said the word bike and I saw longing when you saw me on my bike.." he gushed as he stepped closer to me with his eyes sparkling. I used to be like that.. getting excited when ever bikes were involved. " Sangaku!! I told you to stop Harassing her!! " the class president yelled as she pulled him away from me... " I'm sorry about him and... before.... I didn't know." She whispered for only me to hear. The bell rang again to signal that class would start again. I could feel Manami ' s happily stare at me until the bell rang for us to go home. He walked towards me and grinned.. let's go home together.. " no" I sparklingtated but he smiled anyways.. it's not like I can run from him

He pulled to towards him bike.. " here.. you can ride it!!" He excitedly states as I looked away.. " no thanks." He frowned " I know you want to.. " he argued back. We argued back and forth until I had enough.. " I said no.. I cant!! You get it.. I can't ride a bike anymore!! " I yelled at him.. he stood there shocked as people around us stared at me.. I turned away from him and started walking home..

I walked up the hill at a slow pace.. step by step. He walked beside me. He nolonger has his bike with him. Probebly left it at school to walk with me.. he walked right beside me.. " Kimoto-chan.. I'm sorry.. I didn't know.." he whispered as I ignored him.. he sighed and we walked in silence.

That's how my first da y of school was ruined by Manami Sangaku
