I look at my phone. 

" Ah, 7:30am" 

I get off the couch and unpack my bag. I pull out a black tank top, black leggings, and a grey pullover. I don't even have a uniform, will they even let me in? I don't know. I walk to the bathroom and do my daily routines and leave my hair down. I cook my instant noodles and sit silently on the couch.

" I don't even know where the school is." I sigh.

I through out the cup noodle and pick up my empty backpack. I open my suitcase and fill my back with empty folders and binders. I look out the window and my neighbour heads out the door as well. As he turn around his jacket says " IWATOBI". I fumble to get my bag and shoes on. Shit, I dropped my phone. I check my phone for any cracks. My poor baby.  I head out the door and follow him.

"Tch." Does he even go there?, or even worst, he graduated. He turns around and i quickly pretend I'm on a morning jog with some old ladies. I turn my head. Thank god he didn't see me. The old ladies stare at me. 

"Ohayō" I blurt out and started walking faster.

Screw it. I'm just going to run up to him and as where Iwatobi is. I run up to him and he turns around.

" Umm, excuse me, do you know where Iwatobi High School is?" Shoot. I sound weird.

" Yea" he nodds.

" Do you mind telling me where it is?" 

" I'm going the same way, you could just follow me"

"Okay then" That went better than expected. Things are getting awkward, maybe I should introduce myself. Nah. But it's good to have a friend in high school. 

 " Um, my name is Ren. What your name?

Hahahaha, I'm so awkward. You can almost see the awkward tention between us. In fact you can actually see it.

" Haruka" 

We walk in silence. The only that can be heard is our footsteps. Yo. We have been walking fo so long. I really want to turn around and walk home. I was about to, but I saw the school in the distance. 

"Umm, I'm gonna run ahead. Thanks. Bye"

I wave goodbye at Haruka and I dash towards the school. I ran as fast as I can. I walk into the school and earn weird looks from near by students.

" Ohayo!" I blurt out.

I'm so stupid.

I walk out the office holding my brand new uniform. A white dress shirt, a gray sweater vest, a dark grey skirt, a black blazer, and a blue bow tie. And a schdule. I actually never worn a school uniform before. I hurry to the bathroom and change into my uniform. I walk around the school and I struggle to find my cubby place-thingy. I watched a lot of anime back home, so I'm 110% sure this school has cubby place-thingys. I look around the corner and see cubby-thingys. I dash towards them and struggle to find my name. But of course, It's easy to find my cubby because I'm the only student in the whole school with a non-Japanses last name. 

" damn" I pull my skirt lower. " this is short' my bum can feel a draft." 

I walk around the school until I hear the bell ring. Or I think its the bell. I run down the hallway to avoid being late. Shoot, I dropped my phone.

" Fa,fa-ffaa-ffaaa- FUDGE!"

As I turned around I bumped into someone. Shoot. I hope it wasn't a teacher, or even worst, the principal. I open my eyes and I am facing someone's chest. I look up to someone with warm green eyes.

" Hello!" he smiles at me.

" I'm sorry!" I blurt out and run down the hallway . By run I mean, I went into Usain Bolt mode. 

I enter the classroom and take an empty seat by the window. First 5 minutes of school and I already somewhat dislike it.
