At the school's hall.
There are so loud and noisy sounds in the hall. Shi Yan looked behind her and started to line up with her class. In front of her was a cute black-haired girl student like she was usually watched on the television. She looked like an actress, and then Shi Yan's eyes gazed at the girl. Her head shook in disagreement, and she started to think.
'No! No! No...Maybe her face was similar to an actress's..It could be a coincidence, after all...How can an actress be in the school? And she looks more cute and youthful!'
Then, the girl smiled at Shi Yan and started to greet her.
"Hello! My name's Tao Mei. Are you new here?"
Shi Yan was looking at the girl who asked her, was taken aback, and answered nervously.
"Ah..Hello, too! My name's Shi Yan! Yes, I'm new here.."
"Hey, you don't have to be shy! That's because I'm new too.. you can talk to me without being shy and be easy!"
Tao Mei was teasing her with her right eyebrows up.
"Huh? When did I shy? I was nervous, you know! Nervous! Not shy!"
Shi Yan's face turned upset after hearing that.
"Hehehe.. Don't be upset! I'm just joking! Be relax. By the way, I'm nervous too, but not as you do."
Tao Mei smiled cheekily at her. Shi Yan, who looked at her, smiled with brightness and cuteness. She replied excitedly.
"Woahh!!.. Where does this light come from? It seems like from you! Hahaha.."
Shi Yan then teased her back with a smile on her face.
"Hey! This light comes from you, too! Hahaha..."
Then, the two laughed sweetly and loudly, as they had already been friends for many years. The other students behind them feel annoyed and look over at them.
"Hey! Be quiet, please! If you want to laugh, laugh slowly, not too loudly!!"
A female student yelled and looked at the two. Shi Yan then answers polity.
"We're sorry to disturb you guys. Please continue your chat."
After hearing Shi Yan apologize, the female student continued with her group. Tao Mei then asks her with an angry face.
"Why did you apologize for? Although we laughed loudly, their group was louder than us!"
Shi Yan, who heard Tao Mei's questions, answers with a pleased face.
"Tao Mei, although we are not false, we should be the ones who apologize first. That's what my dad taught me. Also, I didn't want to make a fuss with them on my first day."
After Tao Mei heard that, her face turned to happiness, and she talked to Shi Yan.
"Yes.. you're right... My mother taught me the same, but then she told me that if you let them be, they might take a chance and bully you...I don't wanna see people bullying others behind me..."
Shi Yan's heart was touched when she heard Tao Mei say that.
"Aww.. you're such a sweet and kind girl, Tao Mei. I want to be friends with you, you know?"
"Me too.. that's because you're funny and nice.."
After hearing that, with her eyes full of stars, Tao Mei answered as soon as possible.
"Alright then! Friends?"
"Yeay!! Friends!! I already have a friend on my first day! Yeayy!..."
"Pinky promise?"
Full of joy, Tao Mei asked Shi Yan for a pinky promise.
"Yes!Pinky promise!"
Shi Yan's finger makes a pinky promise to Tao Mei's finger, and they smile at each other.
"Anyways, you can call me Mei, and I'll call you Yan! It's okay??.." Tao Mei asked with sparkling eyes.
"It's okay for me. Mei! My dads called me that, too.."
Shi Yan agreed quickly and smiled at her. After that, she asks in a whisper voice. "Hey, we're not at fault when we laughed, right?"
"Yup!!.. we're not at fault when we laughed! It was not wrong at all if we laughed! Hahaha..."
Afterward, Tao Mei laughed after she said that.
"Yep!.. You're right! Hahaha..."
Shi Yan then laughed, too. The two of them laughed happily and lowered their voice. Next, with their finger at their mouth, they said simultaneously.
"Syuhh..Not laugh too loud!...Hahaha!"
They laughed again until they saw some teachers at the hall door and immediately stopped laughing. Then, the hall turned silent like some big monsters coming to the wars, and the students rushed to their class line after they saw the principal and the other teachers walk in.
