RING!! [ bell's ringing]

Phew, finally it's break time! Argh... my back hurts~Never thought that my first day of high school and we've been given a lot of homework right off the bat. Is this how the school among the elites has been doing to live up its name? I tell you, three pages of math, each page contain 6-15 question unsolved, not to mention from the back page too, it's like twice the number when you put it together. But since it just referred from the middle school topics, I won't complain much but...

Those guys have a dead face on them... well, I can solve it by myself, so good luck you guys~

Oh, the break time is 45 minutes long. So I have a plenty of time to wander around the school. Great, with this, I commence for searching the green zone with haste! All anime MC's have their green zone spot, so I must have it too

But, that plan might put to hold for a moment because I have something more important to deal with...

Yes... I'll receive a quite of number application friend request in time, so I waiting for ~ fufufu

"Hey, Aiza. Why are you still spacing out? all our classmates have gone to the cafeteria. You might want to grab something to fill your stomach or you'll suffer later" Vid said and she left the class

Huh?

Huh!?

They already left! without my noticing! how is it possible? has my awareness of my surrounding already become dull?

Somehow those dark memories of my past have stricken me back again. Dammit, I guess a loner will always be a loner.

*Slap* I slap my face

Get rid of those thinking! aren't you said that you will change your life in high school completely? so bear with it for a while and rearrange your plan again. The chance will come as long you endure with a high patience of yours

Good, my mindset has back to his road. Okay, let's devise a new plan after we grab a lunch.

After I close the door, I went downstairs and heard something noise from down there, and I fasten my leg, with a surprise, a lot of first-year students has crowded the shoe locker's place.

What's the deal with this? aren't they already go the cafeteria? I know that the cafeteria is in the next building, but what's stopping them?

"First years! we're from the handicraft club. You might need this before going out from this building! Take it, it's on us" a girl with a pony-tail hair yell with handing each first year with something

Hmm, the red tie... it's the second year and all six of them. Why is the second year doing here in the first year building? crafting club? and what... is that an eco bag? Why are they giving us? better look closely

I went to one of them with a question on my face

"Hmm? seem you don't receive it yet. Wait a bit... here you go" that guy giving me the eco bag, just like the others

"Umm, can I ask, for what you senpai give us these eco bags?"

"Hahaha, you will understand when you set foot on outside," he said with a smile

Since the door of this building is a black tinted window, I cannot guess what happens on outside. But the thing that I noticed is, I can hear a rowdy noise from there. Without question more, I change my shoes and went to the door, and open it.

What the?

What's happening here?!

I can see many booth lines up across the walkway, right about in front of our first-year building. Not to mention, there are many second and the third years coming here too. Each of the booth giving their flyers also handed a sample of food and more.

Now I understand for those noises came from. Today is for the club to hunt some first year to join them, and I say, it's really lively as there's a festival doing here.

As I walking in the middle of those booths, they forced me by giving their flyer to me. The further I walk, the eco bags will become slightly heavier as it filled with flyers, foods sample and some small gift. I'm glad that the handicraft club giving us these eco bags, it's really convenient... how thoughtful of them.

Even with training, I have a hard time to breathe from this crowded place and my throat become dry and itchy for that

Let's go somewhere to read these flyers and eat these sample. Recall from my memories by looking the map on the notice board, I think I notice the place called green garden so lets headed there.

It's a good thing that the garden place is not far from the first year building, my throat cannot hold any much longer for it thirst. I headed to an empty bench and sit with over relaxing.

"Ughh, what a good bench" I release a heavy breathe and drink one of the juices from the booth that been given to me. The juice's taste really good! it flows down from my throat with ease. And this is from the molecular gastronomy club. They really did a good job! I might be joining them.

But let's see the other flyers too, it might pick my interest after that. Alright then, hmm... sewing club... baseball club. Sports type ha? oh yeah, by joining the sports club, you'll receive popular with fast than you know because let say you win streak from your match, without doubt, the news about your wining will be spread to the entire school. And the crown will be given to you judging from your performance.

But this path is double edge sword. True, you may become popular with fast, but the time will be questioned here. You will have to spend your precious day with train hard all time for club goals and discard your high school life which that hang around with your friends and girlfriend. What I really want is to have my name on the ranks and able to cause an event with friends and chicks.

Okay, I bookmark this first and search for the better club for my own benefits. Cooking club-

"Hey"

Hmm? I heard someone say it from my left side. Maybe it's for her friends. I'm too tired to turn my face. Ignore it

"Hey?"

Now that's weird, The voice becomes louder and closer. Just who is-

"Hey, first-year hero"

"H-hey"

She's from this morning. The victim senpai!

"Can't you hear that I'm calling you? how rude to ignore me"

"Sorry, but did you called my name? I couldn't remember of giving my name to you"

"Oh, I'm just shouted to you with 'hey'. The wrong approach I see"

"So then, what's your business with me, senpai?"

"Wait a minute, let me wipe out these sweat first" she brings out a pink handkerchief and rub with soft to her neck

From a closer look, she is indeed beautiful. And looks like her bob-cut hair has a small ponytail there. Aiza has taken -8 damages...

And now that I look closely... she's the second year.... the red tie

"How long do you want to keep staring at me?"

"Ah, no, it's nothing. I just notice that you don't have that small ponytail from this morning"

"Hmm? oh, this? this is what I regularly do with my hair. It's my hairstyles. Do you find it ugly?"

"N-no, its cute"

"Thanks, I find it cute too," she said it with emotionless

"Ha..."

Self-proclaimed huh. Well whatever, it's not like there's a rule to punish a person for being a conceit. That's way too cruel, even for this age of freedom.

"Anyway, I want to thank you for your bravery acts to save me this morning. If is not for you, my life would turn like hell" she bows her head which is I can see her body shape clearly

"It's okay, senpai. Anyone would do the same if they were in my shoes"

"Not everyone. You see, that guy was the best boxer in this school. With his wild nature, its natural for those who dislike being violent by him would spare their neck and nose from him. Even from this morning, they turn their tail and walk away from that place"

"And the teacher? do you already complain to them?"

"No use, since he's not a muscle brain, he cleverly does his job from blind spot of CCTV... so there's no evidence of his violent acts being recorded"

That's mean, my effort was not in vain. Since I cast away this evil guy and save her, she might tell everyone about my deed, thus I'll be regarded as a hero, a hero in shining armour. Can't wait for that happen

"Also, I want you to keep silent about this. I'd be ashamed if this news spread around my friends, so please"

"Ah, of course!"

Well, of course, that's the right thing to do, to keep it secret. It can't be helped. It's about her dignity being stake here.

"I understand your situation perfectly. Don't worry, your secret will bury with me alone, I promise you that"

I know how it feels when you being ashamed and humiliates by those jerks, especially in front of many people, your tales will go on along your number increased. I don't want you to walk the same path as I am

But, to be honest, since I saved her... I expect like romance scene created here, like " can you tell me your name and numbers" or so. But that's too early for the event to start, so let's take it slowly.

"And...this may be a selfish request from me..."

Judging her tone probably she wants to treat me with something in the cafeteria. Whatever... they always said, no matter who is your enemy or allies, money is still money... gonna take it with pride. And that rules apply to the food and drinks too

"Can you become my boyfriend?"

Yeah, that too...

..........

What?
