"Wow! Amazing! There's an exam to take for getting into one of the most advanced classes here!" "I wanna be in it!" "They just opened yesterday!" "I bet they only take the best math sudents!" Okita passed the hallways by her chattering colleagues. A new advancement? Sounds fun. Okita bumped into a boy holding his phone, making him lose grip and drop.
But Okita luckily caught it before it shattered to bits. "Aoh. Thanks." He grabs the phone back and apologizes un sincerely. She watched in confusion as the boy returned to what was so important. He joined the crowd in circling something she couldn't see. Probably the advanced class president or something. Okita awkwardly waddled towards behind the people layering over something more like someone.
She trampled over many girls and boys, but to her dismay and shock, she found her ken-kun. She flushed and turned around before he could catch the sight of her. "Why is everyone crowding him?" Okita mumbled into her cupped hands. Unfortunately, Kenjiro spotted the black cardigan wearing dainty girl. His blank expression extended out into a mischievous smile. "Why if it isn't my little sister here to visit me?" His eyes gave way to the girl. Okita turned around, spotting she obviously had to play along as the sister. There was a big crowd watching, of course.
"Oh. Yeah. Brother. Hi." She waved sheepishly. "Why are you so tense? Yeah, I know, crowds are overwhelming!" Kenjiro wrapped her into a breath squeezing hug. No longer able to breathe, her cheeks flushed from lack of air and, the public squeeze of her "brother." She finally pushed him away and noticed the oddly new amount of eyes. "Kenjiro, Pal! You never told us you had a younger sister!" A guy from the crowd whooped with a joking accent. Why is he so damn popular? Okita grinned and shrugged him off. "I guess I'll get going now, big bro." She hurried down the hall past the stares into the girl's bathroom.
First, we go from girlfriend. Then we go with sister! What's next? She sat upon the toilet seat, wondering. The stinky aroma of the bathroom clogged her nose.
On the way back home, she passed by her new problem. Meet Okita's latest problem; Shun Kanahashi. The boy who's obsessed with her. Unfortunately, he just happened to sit next to her in science class. So he's disrupting her favorite time of the day. And to make matters worse, he's in all of her classes. He's cute and all, but he's just not her type. He's kind of popular, but he totally stares at her sometimes. She was walking straight to him. Down this path is a total screw up. So she did the only thing she could think of.
Escaping into the video game store was a bad idea, but it could've been worse. She ran into Sawa, her old friend from the van. "Oh, Hi Hi!" She rushed over to Okita barreling into her arms and waving like she hasn't seen her since World War I. "H-Hi." Okita nodded, her mind still making sure Shun wouldn't randomly see her through the window. "I never knew you were the type to play videogames!" She twirled over energetically. She tried to make up an excuse, and eventually she thought of one. "I'm buying a gift for my brother." "Ohhh... Really...That's nice." Her eyes turning to look at her's. Okita sworn she could feel a sweat drop bead down her forehead.
After awhile, Sawa finally left, which left Okita staring down at a disc before her. She looked at the disc labeled, The Quest Of Camelot. Out of curiosity, she picked up the disc. Random people flying out of the kanji letters, Camelot. And a sword. She obviously wasn't the type to play video games, but maybe she could try. It looked pretty shitty, but she could use some shit right now. The graphics were good, which she didn't mind.
