Isnt it amazing that a single drop can cause a ripple effect?
Isnt it also amazing that only one touch of memory can disturb the rest of the history.
Our stories are entangled with one other, that's when our parents decided way back in the past.
Aimi walked heading back to her apartment. "That's so cold Aimi. You didnt even look at me", Ichirou blocked her way. "I wasnt prepared to see you there. What's your relationship with them?", Aimi asked. "I'm Kumiko's brother", Ichirou informed. "You lied to me about your name", Aimi raised her voice. "I see, you're already out. Are you living with someone already?", Ichirou asked. "Its none of your business. Ichirou-nisan. Can you keep a secret for me?", Aimi looked at him. Ichirou gave a smile and nodded. Ichirou walked her to the appartment. They entered. "You dont seems to panic even if I am here", Ichirou teased. "You're not the first guy I brought here", Aimi stucked her tongue out. "What?! Dont tell me!!", Ichirou shouted. "No. I just gave him a shirt because he's wet", Aimi informed. Ichirou smiled and went at the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator and sighed. "I'll be back. Wait for me", Ichirou said then went outside.
The next day Aimi woke up late and rushed inside the school. A lady with a badge on her shoulder is standing at the gate. "Hoho, who do we have here? Miss Saotome, you will be cleaning the library as a punishment", Mayu had a sly smile on her face. "What are you, a sadist?", Aimi said in as soft voice. Class ended and she went to the library to clean. She peeked inside and saw one student reading. It was the upperclassman who helped her. "Senpai, sorry but we have to clean the library. We'll be disturbing you for a while", Aimi apologized.

Aimi looked at the cover of the book with his name. "Its a good book", Aimi commented. "Have you read this already?", Hideki asked. "Yes. I dont want to spoil you from reading but I hope you continue reading it till the end", Aimi encouraged. Hideki smiled and bowed as he leaves the room. After cleaning, Aimi peeked in the Art's Club room. She saw Shou teaching about strokes of brushes. "Its such a sad thing that you cannot join the club since your drawing is much of an abstract", Hayato whispered. Aimi made a distance and sighed. "Are you done with your practice?", Aimi asked. "Yhup. You usually head home early. Why are you here?", Hayato asked. "Its my day off from my part time job", Aimi answered. "You have a job?", Hayato asked. Aimi nodded. Hayato gave a salute. "I respect students like you", Hayato smiled. Ren also happened to pass by. "Ren, I heard you're going to have a concert this week", Hayato jumped at him. "Eih?! Concert?", Aimi asked. "You didnt know. Ren is a genius when it comes to classical and modern music. This week, he's going to play at a musical show", Hayato informed. Ren elbowed Hayato to silence him. "Stop talking. You're over exagerating", Ren covered his face. "I see. You're really talented, arent you?", Aimi smiled. "Of course I am also", Hayato boasted. "Yes, yes", Aimi said in a bored tone. "Can you guys keep quiet?", Shou went out the club room with aura oozing from him. The three of them ran away. They sae Hideki from the window reading under a tree. "Oh, isnt that the upperclassman who's Dad is a designer?", Hayato leaned at the window rails. "You'll fall if you do that", Ren warned. "Man, I want to be friends with him but he's so distant. Always reading", Hayato sighed. "Is he one of the prince?", Aimi asked. "Why?! You see him as good looking as us?!!!", Hayato scolded. "Well, yeah", Aimi scratched the back of her head. "I now see a rival", Hayato walked out. "What a childish guy", Aimi laughed. Ren held out a ticket. "I dont know if you're free but you can use that", Ren said then left. "Always acting cool, arent we? You just want us to watch", Aimi stucked her tongue at Ren's direction.
After a few days, Aimi found herself sitting at the hall where the show will be head. Its a theatrical show. Aimi looked around and saw Ren playing the violin. "Oh, I didnt expect to see you here", a voice startled Aimi. She looked behind her and saw Ichirou. "Are you also here because of Ren?", he teased. "He invited me", Aimi whispered. "You're not with your sister?", Aimi asked. "He went at the front seat since she's got her self head over heels with Ren. Keep it as a secret", Ichirou informed. The show was spectacular but Aimi's eyes were only glue with Ren's performance. He could play the violin, the flute, the piano, and even the cello. "I'm so glad to meet amazing people such as them", Aimi smiled. "Lets go and have a cup of coffee", Ichirou invited. They went at a cafe. "Oh, I see. You're Hayato and Shou's classmate", Ichirou said in amusement. "They're both different, arent they?", Ichirou asked. Aimi nodded in agreement. "Aimi, want to hear a story?", Ichirou asked. "Is that the continuation of the story you've been telling me since we were kids?", Aimi asked. Ichirou chuckled.
First love never works.
"Is that it?", Aimi asked in frustration. "You know the story, right? Apple did not marry Orange and Grapes also never pursued with Banana", Ichirou reminded. "That was the most painful story I ever heard. Did you know that I wasng able to sleep well for two weeks thinking about that?", Aimi complained. Ichirou sliced Aimi's cake. "Aimi, Grapes was right, isnt he? Life is really beautiful", Ichirou suddenly changed the atmosphere. "You're going to do great with you career! Ichirou-nisan", Aimi stuffed cakes in his mouth. They both laughed.
Its nearly summer and everyone is cramming for the exam. Aimi peeked inside the library to see if there's a lot of student. She saw a lot of Class 2-1B and 2-1A having clashes inside. She decided to study at the rooftop. She was astonished with the great view. "Wah!!! What a nice view", she appreciated. "Are you going to review here? Its kind of hot", Aimi looked at the direction of the voice. It was Ren sitting under the shades. He's surrounded with a lot of drinks. "Hot weather makes me have more passion", Aimi smiled and sat beside Ren. "No one dares to sit beside me... especially girls", Ren warned. Aimi created a distance. "Maybe I'll let that off for today", Ren informed and looked at Aimi. He looked at the book she is carrying. "English?", he asked. "I'm having hard time translating complicated sentences", Aimi explained. Ren got the book and opened it. "Give me your pencil", he opened his palm. Aimi handed it to him and he started discussing with her. "You're amazing, Tanaka-kun. I guess you're at par with Takuma when it comes to talent and brain", Aimi said with glee. "Tanaka... you can call me Tanaka", Ren said.
That day, under a hot sun, I think the wind blew again.
Aimi and Ren went down the stairs together. "Thank you for the tutorial", Aimi bowed. "Hmmm. Where did you both go?", Hayato asked. Ren ignored him and went his way. "Is there something between you and Ren?", Hayato asked Aimi. "We're just hmmm.. teacher anf student relationship", Aimi pointed on her book. Hayato just nodded and went inside the classroom with Aimi. Shou is also reading his notes. "Woah! Takuma, are you going serious with your studies?", Aimi sat in front of him. "Stop disturbing me", Shou shove her away. "Okay, okay", Aimi pouted then went to her seat.
This is fun, isnt it? Doing your best.
The result of the exam came the next week.
1. Tanaka Ren and Takuma Shou 2. Kisaki Hayato 3. Saotome Aimi 4. Kisaki Mayu 5. Takuma Kumiko
The six of them were scattered in front of the bulletin board. "No!!! No!! Way!!!", Mayu shouted. "Oh, I did give some effort this time", Hayato scratched the back of his head. He received a punch from Mayu. "I didnt know you also study hard", Kumiko smiled at Aimi. "Thanks", Aimi also looked at Hayato. "You have a brain?", Aimi tilted her head. "How is a person like you.. ranking 3?!", Mayu used her Aikido skill at Hayato. Ren and Shou looked at each other. "Well, hoping to compete again", they both said in unison. "Why arent you even having a quarell?!!!", Mayu complained. "Mayu, stop acting like that. You look pitiful", Hayato chuckled.
