Have you ever saw a walking rose? You know, walking around..school? Yeah, school. It all started because of that. And I thought I was losing my mind! It was a typical Thursday morning, actually. I guess you can say I had the weirdest day. Ever. My brother Runo, as usual, is still playing his video game, first thing in the morning. I actually wonder what's going in his head. I mean, I'm his own sister and I don't even know. "Die, die, die!" He yelled in the living room. Here we go again.. I thought. "Keep it down!" I screamed. How can I be so stupid? He can't hear me. Well, whatever. This is where my morning started.

My name is Rhea Yokune. Yes, Yokune. Ever heard of UTAU? Well, my mother's Ruko Yokune. And my father's ROOK. Yes, weird, right? But, I don't care. Too late now, anyway, I'm born! 

"Runo, aren't you gonna get ready? You know that the bus is coming here soon, right?"

"Duh," he replied. "I'll get ready. I just need to beat this!" 

"Well, whatever," I got ready and went outside to wait for the bus. Yeah, I wish my mornings are just like..this.. Cherry blossom trees are blooming with joy as they danced with the wind. So beautiful. My thoughts were broken by Runo. "Ah, heck! I lost," he pouted. "Oh here's the bus."

We both got in the bus and sat down our usual seat─him at the back, me in the front. And so, we went to our classroom, first period. Listened to the teacher about her lesson? Been there, done that. 

"Now, class," Ms. Leonard said, "it appears we have a new student today."
