Reverse Rainbow (Rebooted)

E.4: Hoshizora Academy

Takeru's POV

"Alright, Takeru, take care of yourself." My sister Akira bids me farewell when she escorted me to Hoshizora Academy. "Study well...and remember what mom has told you, okay?"

"Hehehe! Why yes, sis."

As I make my steps into parts unknown...well, a school that I didn't known before, I took time to recall what my sister...my mother...and my very first friend in the city has told me.

"I'm saying this not because for easing your worries...it's because I'm know this city...is always ready to start over again."

"I can't remember what mom what told me about this city but...what did I know is that...here in Kanagawa is where her world starts to spin...and she wanted to see it again through you, Takeru."

"I know that you will be feel uneasy because you never left the town for so long...but I'm sure that this offer will be paid offer."

I don't know why this city has become a part of her life...well, I guess that need to start my own to find out. Besides...mom, Akira and the girl has motivated me. I can do this! I can do this! I can do thi-huh?

"Hey, buddy!" Suddenly, I felt a tap over my shoulder. "How do you do, bro?"

But I didn't answer him out of shyness. He's just called me for the first time...I didn't know him...

"Hehehe! My bad...I didn't introduce to you. My name is Daisuke Tachibana. Nice to meet you!" He then makes a peace sign and shakes my hand.

"My name is Takeru Hayashi. Nice to meet you, too...and thanks for being my friend."

"Glad to hear that, buddy. Oh, hey! How about you join me to the classroom?"

"Hu-huh? We-well, oka-woaaaaah!!!!"

And without warning, Daisuke took my arm and dragged me into the school.

"WHAAAAA!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?!?!"

Yumika's POV:

"Lalalala...."

Everytime I bike my way towards Hoshizora Academy, I always sing a beautiful and sweet lullaby...as I pass-by through the beautiful sceneries of Kanagawa City. Despite being an urban city, there are still some nature sceneries that I could enjoy...

Especially the majestic view of the coastline...where in a clear and sunny day, the sky seems to meet with the sea in the horizon...as if the two stretches out to infinity. Hehehe...what reminds me of my childhood...I once told myself that I'm gonna swim the water to see where the sea would end...my playmates laughed at me but applauded my colorful imagination. Hehehe...those were the days.

But now, I'm a sixteen-year old, second-year senior high school student in Hoshizora Academy of Kanagawa City. In a class of thirty students last year, I was the star student...having excellent to almost-perfect grades in all of my subjects. They even make me not only the class president, but also the representative of the whole first-year batch in the student council last year. And now, I was elected as the student council president.

I'm yet to enter a club but...I do fare very well in volleyball and tennis...as well as I could dance good...and have a pretty singing voice...hehehe! Mixing it all up, along with my physical appearance, as well as my style of being kind, jolly, humble, ready to help others and rarely gets mad...these are the reasons why I've been the talk of the entire academy...

"Wow...she is a beautiful lady, I want to be like her, sis!"

"Hey, is that the star student of Hoshizora Academy that you are talking about?"

"That's a very kind and caring girl."

"Yumi-chan! Yumi-chan!" As I approach the school gates, I saw my friends Ami and Hikari waiting for me. "Good morning, Yumi-chan!"

"Hehehe! Good morning, sis!" I disembark my bike just to hug them both. "So, how's your weekend? Did you rest comfortably?"

"Yes, Yumi-chan. It's a good thing that we've reserve our train trip early before the school year starts." Hikari replies. "Hey! How about we continue our conversation that we had a few days back?"

"Oh yeah! Ami almost made me hanging on your story about your adventures in a big mountain!"

"Hehehe! My bad!" Ami scratches her head in embarrassment.

And there, our girl talk continues, as we walk our way to class 2-A...just in time that the school bell begins to ring...signalling the start of classes.

Takeru's POV:

"...huff...huff..."

Daisuke and I arrived in the classroom. I'm so exhausted after being dragged by my friend to run into the school corridors and into the stairs.

"Dude...you're nuts! You nearly tripped me in the stairs, you know?" I complained to my friend Daisuke.

"Hehehe! My bad, bro. But...you should get used to this running starting today. We have PE class this year and we got to run in a track oval more than once."

Daisuke finds a seat for me: it would be at the middle of the seating arrangement...literally in the middle of the class

"Oh yeah, I would like to introduce to you to my friend." He then calls somebody. "Wataru...he's my new friend, Takeru Hayashi. Takeru...he's Wataru Komiya."

"Takeru-san, nice to meet you." My other new friend Wataru shakes my hand. "How about you accept my offer to be the 'boss' of the class?"

"Hmm? Boss?"

"Yes, bro. You see, in thirty students here in our class, only ten are boys: just you, me, Daisuke and the others." Wataru explains. "As 'boss' you have the right to order us. We need to prove that even we are few...we can level our intelligence as the same as the girls."

"Oh...I see...sure, why not?" I shyly accepted Wataru's terms.

"Ha! Great! Remember! Your wish is my...Ehem...our command! Hehehe!"

Yumika's POV

Our conversation with Ami and Hikari takes too long and happily that we've never noticed that we're already in our classroom. As we sit in our places, which by the way we gals sit together at the backend the classroom, I've noticed something. Directly in front of me is an new student, I always know that by just looking at the back of their heads since I've known them for so long. When that student look sideways... towards the window, I realized that it was Takeru!

I smiled sweetly, I was supposed to visit him in the weekend to help him with his problem. But since he's already here...I guess it will be easier for me to do so! Hehehe!

Moments later, the front door of the classroom flung open...and entered a lady holding a logbook and some lecture notes...it will be our home class teacher. Everybody who arrives in class after the teacher scrambles to find any seat that is left at the back. Moments later, I hear a cry.

"Stand! Bow!"

"Good morning, sensei!"
