Time to Give Up

Senpai Finally Notice Me

Senpai was sitting in his classroom. He looked at the cherry trees from his seat next to the window, one hand on his chin. Although Geography was one of his favorite subject, but today he just couldn't pay attention to his teacher.

'Every time I look at them, image of Lyssa-chan always appeared in my mind.'

He looked at the empty seat at the corner of the classroom while thinking so. That seat was Lyssa-chan's before she moved out, it had been a month since then.

She broke his heart, but it seemed like he couldn't stop thinking about her, because he was deeply in love with her. She was the girl that closest to him, beside his little sister. He still remembered everything about her, her voice, her laughter, her beauty... he remembered everything.

"Shulk!" The teacher said.

"Y- yes, mister!" His mind came back to reality.

"What's wrong with you? You never get distracted."

"It's... nothing. Sorry Mr. Danno."

"Don't be that like again. This lesson is very important for the next exam, so you better listen." He turned back the board.

"Yes, sensei..." Some students looked at him curiously.

"Well, our lesson today ended here. Remember to do your homework." Mr. Danno said as the bell rang.

"Yes!" They replied, included Senpai.

When the teacher walked out of the classroom, students started to come out of their seat to play and chat with friends, it was break time after all.

"Hey Dipper." Zoe came to Senpai's seat.

"Oh, hey Zoe. What's up?" He tried to be normal like his usual self.

"Um... Are you feeling well?"

"What do you mean? I'm completely fine, see?"

"No, you're not fine. You never get distracted by anything, or daydream during class time. There must be something wrong with you." She was right, though.

He remained silent.

"Was it because... Lyssa?" Her words hit his mind greatly.

"No, it's... no big deal. Just... leave me alone, I don't want to talk about it." He put one of his hands on his forehead.

"Okay, I understand." She said and walked away. She then saw Madison and joined her.

'Lyssa-chan...' He thought and looked outside through the window.

Meanwhile, at Yandere-chan's class...

"Hey, Melissa-chan!" Shulk said and Yandere-chan looked at him.

"What is it?"

"Why doesn't a cookie come to school?"

"Uh... I don't know. Why?"

"Because it's feeling crumby! Get it!?" He grinned.

She pouted. Suddenly a light bulb appeared in her head. She took out a paper in her bag and started to draw something on it.

"What are you doing?" Curious, he leaned forward and looked at the paper.

'I'm drawing you." She showed him the pictured. She did draw him, a tall boy with orange hair and amber eyes, the only difference was...

"Why the hell do I have tail?" She giggled at his childish tone.

"Because..." She smiled playfully at him. "I think you are in-tail-ligent!"

Now I was his turn to pout.

"Ha ha... you got me there... Good job Melissa-chan, good job..."

She laughed so hard. But she didn't know that there was one thing in his mind.

'She's so adorable when she is laughing.'

It was time for lunch. Senpai headed to his favorite spot at the fountain. He always feels calmed at the beautiful cherry blossom.

But something was missing, or said in the other way, someone was missing.

"I miss her so much. Why...? She made me heart-broken, she made me felt lonely, she left me. So why am I feeling this way?"

Suddenly, a girl holding a lunch box walked past him, her presence caught his eyes. Her black hair was tied into a ponytail and it flew slightly as the wind came by. Her eyes were grey but they're still bright and beautiful. Her steps seemed as light as cloud. And her black legging wrapped around her slim legs perfectly.

He gave his head a slight hit at the last sentence. 'What are you thinking Shulk? Wake up, you pervert!' He said to his mind.

But he recognized this girl. She used to stalk him when Lyssa-chan was still here. Sometimes, he knew she was hiding near him, but he ignored it and wait for her to leave herself. She also acted strange when she went near him.

He didn't care about it much, though. At least that she didn't do anything dangerous to him... and his precious Lyssa-chan.

"Urg!" he groaned. "Just stop thinking about her already!"

Good thing that she didn't hear him.

He usually didn't notice her much before, but now... he notice that she had a beauty of an angel.

"Something is wrong with my head today..." he covered his face with his hand at that thought.

Luckily, she didn't hear him. She walked toward a bench, where a boy was sitting.

"Sorry for coming late." She smiled.

"It's alright. It's your nature after all." He teased her as she sat down next to him.

"Shut up and eat your lunch." She opened her lunch box and started to eat while talking with him.

He didn't know why, but... seeing them so happy together made his heart ached. It's just like the feeling when Lyssa-chan left him. They're so alike.

'Am I in love... again? No, that's so stupid. But... could it be the reason that I'm feeling this way when seeing them her happy with another boy?'

He couldn't take his eyes of her while thinking so.

While chatting with Shulk-kun, Yandere-chan took a glanced at the fountain and saw her Senpai stared at her. Her heart skipped a beat, but she soon calmed down because...

'Maybe he is looking at someone behind us.' She continued her lunch with Kaitan until the bell rang.
