As per usual, Airis is now running to school late, with 3 new special additions in her bag.  Eggs of 3 colors - white, pink and blue.

Airis woke up with 3 eggs laying at the foot of her bed. Squealing loudly, excited that she have eggs like in the anime. Her phone alarm started to ring again, indicating she was going to be late.

So that's how she end up running to school, swearing under her breath that she will try to wake up earlier.

Airis entered the gate with 5 minutes to spare, panting badly. I'm never doing this again, I really should wake up on time. Anymore of this and my heart will definitely give way.

Airis always sat out during physical education. She was not only not good with sports, her skin was very sensitive, standing under hot sun too long will lead her to have bad acne problems.

Squealing girls started their routine again, and Airis secretly to gaze at her crush, she was was than happy to just observe him from afar.

Coming from a girl school previously, approaching a guy was impossible to her unless they approach her first or unless it's absolutely necessary. Airis is so extremely shy to the opposite sex and that lead her to have no romantic relationships at all since she was born.

"Pluck up the courage and approach him!" an adorable voice rang out cheerfully. Then suddenly her white egg almost took a tumble down from her bag to the floor.

Airis felt like her heart stop, with her reflexes, she caught it right before her egg met the ground. That was too close, the egg could have cracked. She quickly placed her egg carefully back into her bag, securing it properly.

Little did she know Nagihiko saw everything, Airis' white egg tumbling out and the other 2 eggs in her bag.

"Tadase, did you saw that?"

"Yes, do you think it's that girl?"

"No doubt."

Tadase decided to approach Airis, and touched her shoulder to enquire about her eggs. Airis turned over and realised it was Tadase, and Nagihiko was looking at her. Airis' mind went blank, her crush was looking at her, her mind went overdrive.

She shrugged off his hands. "Excuse me, class is about the start." With that, she quickly walked away and heads to her class.

Airis' head was swirling madly. That is very rude of me, what if Nagihiko hates me. I should have gave a better response.

Lessons went pass just like that with her mind occupied.

"She was interesting, right?" Nagihiko asked Tadase amused.

"I guess, but did she have to be so rude?" Tadase feeling a little offended.

"She was just being shy, I could tell she was trying to escape from the situation. Don't blame her, Tadase."

"I guess." he sighed.

"For now, let's just observe her for a little while" Nagihiko patted Tadase's back.
