O' Shining One

Chapter 2: 1st day - Sunday's Melancholy [ Part 2 ]

Shibuya Ward, Shibuya Subway Station.

"Yeah, and the punch line is even funnier"

Hibiki smile at her friend as he talked about what he had encountered and heard. The two was in the Shibuya Subway, waiting for their train. It was pack with people but they managed to find space to stand near the rail.

"Oh!?" Daichi blurted out when his eyes caught sight of something.

"What?" Hibiki asked curiously.

"There!"

Hibiki turn and look at what her friend was smiling at. She saw a short girl standing not far away from them. Her short hair was light brown, lighter than Daichi, matching her eyes. She wore a standard gray uniform with black dress shirt and blue ribbon bow tie. Her black shirt ended only at her thigh and her black socks came up below her knees, showing her fair skin. Her dress short was a shade of darker brown. The uniform hugged her body perfectly, showing her slender body. She was looking at her books.

"That's Nitta Io from Class C!"

"Who's that? Your friend?" Hibiki asked in wonder looking at the girl before turn to the brown haired boy, she could hear her friend tone change as he talked about the girl.

"Nah" Daichi replied dejectedly before he gave her a hopeful smile, "I seriously wish though"

"Hmm...", Hibiki hummed and turn to look at the girl again, observing her, "Looks like she's on her way home from mock exams, too"

"She's so cute..." Daichi muttered dreamily, blushing as he stared at the light brown haired girl.

"I don't know" Hibiki hummed, "You think so"

Daichi lean closer to the black haired girl with a duck lip, "Even if you're girl, you're weird" he sweatdropped and reprimanded her, "We can see that she's cute"

"Isn't she your type anyway?" Hibiki teased turning to him with a wide smile.

"Oh yeah, I guess" Daichi blush and let out a sheepish chuckle before look up at her with narrowed eyes. "How about you? What your type?" He asked with a teasing smile.

Hibiki eyes widened and her cheeks turn a brighter shade of rosy pink, "M-My t-type...?" she spluttered and look away, scratching her cheek nervously, "Saa...na..."

Daichi eyes narrowed down and he grabbed his hip, glaring at her. "Mou, Hibiki! You should start wearing clothes that girl should wears" He scolded as he looks down at her clothes with a disapproving and criticizing look, "You look like a boy! How will you get a boyfriend now!?"

Hibiki cheeks turn a brighter hue as she listened to him, at his words she looks down at her clothes. She was wearing white bunny ears hood jacket with blue and white striped turtleneck shirt underneath, snuggling her slender body perfectly and show her petite form. Her trouser was slim and blue, and similar to her upper clothes, it snuggling her legs but baggy enough. It was styled in boyish style, meaning that even boy can wear it and no one would know if the trouser was for a girl or for a boy. Unlike Io's dress shoes, Hibiki wears a pair of navy blue sneakers.

"Am I really look like a boy?" Hibiki wondered curiously. She didn't really care about how people mistake her gender. She just wanted to wears what she like and what she was comfortable in.

Daichi sighed and nod. "Even if your face is pretty and very feminine" Daichi said, his eyes squinted down at her and look at her hair and clothes, "People will probably see you as a pretty boy with your boyish hair and clothes"

"Beside you're pretty tall for a girl. Scratch that, you're very tall" Daichi sweatdropped as he compared Hibiki height with Io's. Heck, she was nearly tall as him and he was 171 cm, just a few centimeters away, about 6, 5 or 4, he wasn't sure but she was tall.
