"Ai-sannn!"
Yuna whined and puffed up her cheeks as she slammed her hands down onto my desk, causing some of my paperwork to fly everywhere.

"What could you possibly want now Yuna?"
I gently pulled my glasses off from my nose and placed them next to me, looking at the girl standing before me.

"You dwon't have to do all these papers now y'know. Yhu can take a bweak from time to time!"
Yuna grabbed my shoulders and shook them, in some sort of attempt to clear my head.

Yuna. She was an Australian-transfer student that was new to our school. She constantly slurred her words and pronunciation in Japanese since she was still struggling to learn. Her accent hadn't helped very much either. Even with her "disability" she still managed to climb her way up the ranks of the student council board.

"Yuna check your pronunciation, please."
I sighed and placed my pen down before leaning back in my chair, slightly pushing away from my desk.

"Yeah, yeah, sorry!"
She giggled, grabbed my pile of paperwork, and placed it onto a separate table. I watched as she entirely cleared my desk of any work I could possibly do.

"Yuna you're my assistant, basically my secretary, aren't you supposed to be making sure I do my work? Instead, you're forcing me to do the complete opposite."
I let out a small laugh.

Yuna had always been this way, making sure I didn't work myself to death.

"Yes, but you do all your work most of the time without me having to tell you. Most of these papers aren't due till next week and you've been in the faculty room for most of the weekend, Ai-san."
She twirled a strand of her hair as she sucked on a lollipop.

I gave her a small glare, knowing she was right.

"Fine."
I gave in and rested my head on my hand.

Yuna prepared to cheer.
"YAAA-"

"But you seriously need to stop addressing me with such honorifics Yuna. I already told you that Ai is just fine."
I smiled, finally just relaxing. She grinned widely and grabbed my wrist, pulling me up from my chair as I lazily complied.

"But I respect you! It'd feel wrong to be so casual with my boss anyways!"
She sent me a playful wink whilst leading me out the door.

I nodded my head in disapproval, chuckling at the girl's behavior.

"Let's go get some ice cream?"
She said.

Are you even asking me or is that just a demand...

I knew better to know that was a rhetorical question when it comes to Yuna. She only says something in a questioning way in order to make you feel included. But really, what she means is that you're definitely going to do whatever she had "questioned".
I deadpanned for a moment before just sighing and deciding to go along with her as I usually do.

Finally, the day had pretty much ended and Yuna had gone home. Of course, as the Student Council President, I stayed behind to finish off some paperwork. Though finally being done, I was able to take some time to myself. So, I strolled over to the back of the school gym.

Basically no one comes over here, especially at this time on a Saturday.

I lifted my phone, turned it on to see the lock screen, and checked the time.

Exactly as I thought... 6:42 P.M... Rarely anyone even stays past 3:30.

I opened my bag and pulled out a small rectangular box. I sighed in relief.
"I haven't seen you all day, I've barely gotten the chance..."

I lightly grasped a cigarette in between my lips before bringing my lighter closer and burning the end. Slowly, I took a long, and much-needed drag of the cigarette. I held the chemical in my lungs for a good few before releasing the smoke. I took the time to enjoy the relief and sensation of it entering, and now leaving my system.

"Damn that feels good."
I closed my eyes and rested my head against the brick wall behind me.

I was enveloping myself in this comforting feeling. I had spent all day working, and I rarely got time alone. Although, suddenly I heard a few steps on the gravel a bit away from me. I quickly opened my eyes and turned in the direction of the steps.

"Pardon me I-"
Someone had begun to speak before they caught me red-handed.

The Student Council President. Smoking. On the school campus.

"Shit."
