I remember having so much fun at the sushi restaurant. Everyone was full of laughter and enjoyment, despite what had happened only a day or two ago. To be honest, I was even enjoying myself. It felt like forever since I've had that much fun with people.
That night I even got a little bit of sleep surprisingly. I mean I still had the occasional nightmares and insomnia, but I still got a decent rest.
The morning after I did my regular routine of going downstairs, rushing to make a coffee, running back upstairs to my room to change into my uniform, then do my makeup/hair, and then rush back downstairs to pack all my shit into my bag, stare into the mirror, and sit down for 10 minutes to enjoy "breakfast". While I was watching the news, I realized that I was missing something, so I ran back upstairs and to my desk. On top of my desk was the necklace that Nagito had gotten me. I put it on, and instantly looked into a mirror to see how I suited it. I loosely smiled at the silver charm that hung on my neck.

Walking back downstairs, I looked at the clock to see how much time I had to walk to school.
'Ugh 7:30 already? I fucking hate school..'
I hazily turned off the tv, got my remaining things into my school bag, and dragged myself out the door.
'New day new beginnings..' I kept mentioning to myself as I paced away to Hopes Peak.

I walked into class to see half of the class already there. Everyone said hi to me, and I replied in my usual small, monotonous voice. I quickly walked to the back of the class to see Fuyuhiko in his usual seat, sitting with his feet up on the desk. He looked at me and gave me a nod before shutting his eyes again. I just walked past him, said a small hi to Peko and made my way to my seat beside the small window in the left corner of the class. I instantly brought out a notebook and a pen while hearing little chatter amongst the class. Honestly, I was right where I liked to be. To not be drowned by the deafening silence of a house that only sits you is relieving to say the least.

Soon the other half of my class slowly assembled in their seats as the chatter began to grow. I even joined in on some conversations for a bit, which was..fun. I liked being a part of a group. Now would I tell them that I liked it? Hell no. But maybe one day they'll know...he'll maybe that day is today.

After the bell rung, an adult with messy blonde hair covered by a white fedora, wearing a matching white blazer with a black tie had walked in. He stumbled a bit, but proceeded to walk to the front where Chisa used to stand. I suddenly got a strong scent of alcohol and liquor that blinded my other senses. For some reason I was suddenly reminded of my mom, and how she was an obsessive alcoholic.
Pushing the detaining memory away, I listened to what the man had to say.
"Heeeeyyy look who's back? Your favourite teacher!" He stretched his words, a clear indication that he was drunk off his ass.
'Are you serious Jin? We get a major drunkie for a fucking homeroom teacher?'
Ibuki scoffed and whispered back to me "yeah more like our drunk adult we gotta babysit.."
she put her fist out for a fist bump, to which I lazily did. She chuckled and turned back.
The man caught on to what we did.
"Ah Ibuki it looks like you're good friends with the missing new girl. So new girl, got a name?" He leaned on the chalkboard and let out an exhale of breath.
"Chi Fujisayo, ultimate assassin. I'm guessing you're my teacher I never met?"
He nodded his head. "Yup that's me. I'm Kohichi Kizakura, but please call me Kizakura sensei." He bowed before continuing. "And by your file Chi I can see that you've never attended school before, well besides a preschool that is. Impressive."
I raised a brow. "How exactly?"
He chuckled "well from your test marks, GPA and IQ, you are quite frankly one of the smartest people here. "
I was even shocked to hear this news.
'Seriously how the fuck did I even...'
Inside I was kinda freaking out, but on the outside I was calm and collected.
"Oh really..? Cool."
"Chi not only is that "cool" but it's also a great achievement! Congratulations!" Sonia sparkled with every word of happiness. Everyone started to agree with her, while I just kinda chuckled.

"Okay well Chi welcome to the team. Now! Onto the real stuff.."

The bell had finally rung for lunch and out darted everyone. I looked around for someone I could hang with, but like a saving grace Ibuki appeared with Hiyoko and Mahiru.
Ibuki tapped my shoulder and once I turned around, she playfully said in a posh voice "miss Chi, would you ever be so kind as to join us for a feast in the music class?" She chuckled as she curtsied. I laughed along with all of them and replied in the same voice "oh indeed I would love to. It will be divine."
Hiyoko waved her hands in the air. "Yay big sis is coming!"
Mahiru led the way as we all followed. Eventually we ended up in this amazing room full of instruments, sound equipment, and speakers all around us.
Ibuki 'woohoo'ed and ran directly to the electric guitar. Hiyoko went up to the stage and got into a position while Mahiru pulled her camera out. I looked around the room and found a wooden ukulele sitting there, collecting dust.
"Yo Chi pick your poison and get up here to jam with us!"
Mahiru agreed with Ibuki. "Yeah, I'd love to take pictures of you, that is if you don't mind of course!"
I smirked and picked up the ukulele, walking straight to the stage.
"Play us a song rocket man!" Ibuki sat down in a chair in the front row, as did Mahiru and Hiyoko. They all sat patiently, waiting for me to start.
I said sarcastically "this one goes out to all the single ladies..."
the girls 'wooed' and clapped. I begin to play a random tune, humming along to the sound.
After I finished Ibuki's mouth was opened as she stood up and clapped loudly for me. I heard clicks of the camera go off and Hiyoko give little squeals of excitement. I laughed. Like when I say laughed I mean 'I had an amazing time' laugh. One of those laughs that you do when you feel comfortable where you are, and you can just be yourself.

Ibuki and Hiyoko made their way up to the stage when I walked off. I sat beside Mahiru and turned to her once I felt her tap my shoulder.
"Hey Chi?" She asked quietly.
"What's up M?" I don't know why, but I was slowly making up nicknames for everyone here.
"You should wear your smile more. Don't be afraid to show that confidence."
I shyly smiled, which was and still is hella rare for me.
"Thanks but I'm really not that confident.."
"Whaaat? And here I was gonna ask you to be a model for my exam?!"
My eyes widened and I looked up to Mahiru with a 'oh you've got to be shitting me' look.
"I'm serious Chi, will you be my model?"
It took me a bit to answer, because I've never felt so flattered in my life.
"I...I'd love to M...thank you.."
she smiled and turned back.
'Oh that reminds me, I should ask her for that.'
"Hey Mahiru?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you still have that picture of Nagito and I when I saved him from the boulder?"
She looked at me puzzling.
"Yeah, why? You want it?"
"Could you make me a copy?"
"Sure, but can I ask why?"
"..I've got a place for it, and it turns out...I really like the picture..."
I smiled, and as did she.
