I gave up on love after middle school after getting rejected by the girl I had a crush on for three months. Since then most of the time at school wasn't fun for me. I spent most of the time by sleeping in the class.
Tomorrow, my high school will start. Of course I am thinking of changing my way of life after entering high school. I'll try to be more energetic and active in the class. I definitely don't want to be the pathetic loner in the class, anymore.....
It's my first day today at high school. But it's already 7: 35 am. And I'm late. I rushed to the school after taking my breakfast. If I was even late by two minutes, then the class would have started.
Being a loner also has it's benefits. I have acquired the skill of observing and focusing on something accurately. I observed that most of the students already formed groups among them. There is something I noticed among students over all these years I've spent as a loner. Some students try to make friends just for show. They don't care about the problems of friends. I just can't understand it.
Suddenly I saw a student coming towards me. She smiled and said," I am Suzuki Mamoru. Nice to meet you." It took me a moment to grasp the situation because I was thinking about something else. When I understood the situation, I replied," Hello, Mamoru-san. Nice to meet you too. I am Shoyo Kageyama." "That's a nice name" she said. I thanked her. She asked," Which Middle High are you from?" I replied, " I am from Seiseki Middle High, and you?" She said,"I am from Senjougahara Middle High." Suddenly I noticed that I'm freely talking with her.
When the bell rang, all the students took their seat and the teacher entered the class. She said,"Hi students, I will be your home room teacher for the next three years. My name is Shimizu Mirai."
Some of the boys started to whisper, " Isn't she hot?" " Maybe I'll ask her out" "Hey, keep it low, she will hear you." Sometimes I think how can a teacher tolerate all this. After that the introductions started and I found out most of the student's characters in the class.
After two periods, I saw Mamoru-san was trying to call me. She whispered in my ears," Will you have lunch with me today?" I replied,"Yeah, that's a nice idea." Then she smiled and started to pay attention to the class.
After the class, lunch break started. We went to the cafeteria. I ordered a strawberry muffin cake and Mamoru-san ordered a beef burger. Mamoru asked me, "So you like girly food?" I replied, "Yeah, kind of." then she started to laugh at me. "You are one to laugh, your appetite is like a fat elephant." I said pointing at her burger." Yeah I like to eat more food, do you have any problem?" she asked me angrily. " No, I don't" I replied by laughing.
After having lunch I went in the washroom to wash my hands. When I was gonna get out of the washroom, a boy who was most probably the honor student of the class held my collar and said," Stay away from Suzuki, she's mine." Then I asked him, "How is she your's? Did you buy her at the shopping mall?", "What did you say?" he said tightening his grip on my collar. I asked him again, "Why is she your's? Was she on a discount sale on the shopping ma-" This time I could not finish my sentence because he punched me in the face and then punched me on the stomach which caused me to fall on the hallway. Some students were watching while some went to get the teacher. I touched my nose, it felt blood was coming out. I stood up and whispered in his ears, " Are you not satisfied with all the girls who loves you? And you are an honor stude- "I could not finish my line because the teachers came and took us to the infirmary.
After bandaging my wounds, I got out of the infirmary and saw a student was standing outside. He said, "Hey, you got in trouble with Kanzaki, huh?" I remembered this student is the one who sits behind me. I replied, "Isn't Kanzaki the honor student?" He said, "He is a sneaky bastard too. Didn't you see he attacked you in a place where there are no female students?" I nodded my head. He said, "By the way I'm Na-" "Nakamura Kenji, right?" I asked. He replied, "Yeah, but for now let's go to the class."
We went to our class 1-C. We met Mamoru-san on our way to the class. After listening to the story, Mamoru-san told me that last spring Kanzaki asked her out and got rejected. She told me that Kanzaki is a man of chances. He is always looking for chances to get close to her.
Only two periods are left for today's class so I was planning to sleep and put my head on the desk. But Mamoru-san called me and she was giving me signal to look at the teacher. I looked at the teacher and saw he was looking at me with red eyes. The teacher asked, "So, Kageyama-kun, do yo hate my classes so much that you are going to sleep?". I replied, "No sensei." Then he said, "Oh, is that so then read out from the line I was reading last." He thought I was gonna get confused that in which line he was. But I listened his last line and started reading from there without my book. Everybody in the room got really surprised. Yamada sensei was so astonished that he could not talk. At a point he said, "Sit down and try not to sleep in the class."
After school when I went to change my shoes, Mamoru-san and Nakamura asked me how I could read without the book. I told them, "I'm good at social science, it just happened to be a coincidence that the page I memorized yesterday night was asked to me today." " Oh, so that was just a coincidence." They said.
We got separated on our way homes because we live at different roads. I came home and went to the shower. When I got out of the shower, I heard that my big sister was making dinner." When I entered the room, she told me to wait because dinner was being cooked. Me and my big sister live together in this house. Our parents died eight years ago in a car accident.
"Oi Shoyo come here and help me tidy the table." She said loudly. I helped my big sis to tidy the table so she can serve the dinner. When we were eating, I said, "Your cooking tastes as disgusting as ever, sis." She got angry and said, "Shut up!" I was in the mood to tease her so I said, "You'll never find a husband this way." Then she got angry and started chasing me. After dinner we got into our rooms and went to sleep.
Despite being an ideal woman, my big sis is a wimp at the heart. Every night after 12 she sleepwalks and comes to my room to sleep. This started when Mom and Dad died. She was in high school and I was just a kid. I couldn't understand it, but my sis couldn't tolerate it and became wimpy at heart. I couldn't get the love of my parents much, but I have sis, she is my mom, she is my everything. Just like every night, she also came sleep walking into my room, walked into my bed and started sleeping.
The next day I woke up, brushed my tooth and got ready to go to school. I ate the breakfast and was about to leave. Then my sis came and said," Hey, your tie isn't fixed right." She came towards me and fixed my tie. "Do your best, Sho-chan" she said. I replied, "You also do your best at work." And left.
When I came near the school I saw Kanzaki was walking with a girl by holding her hands. I ignored them and thought that some people are born in the world just to be bad. When I entered the class, Nakamura said," Good morning, Shoyo." Mamoru san also greeted me by saying good morning. I replied to both of them, "Good morning." I saw Kanzaki entering the class and he looked towards me with a nasty look for a moment and went away. I just ignored him. After a little while, the student council president Yumehara-senpai entered our class and looked at me, soon after that she went to Kanzaki and talked about something. Later she left our classroom.
"Hey, do you know that Kanzaki became the new vice president?" ask Mamoru-san. "I guess all he wants is just attention." I replied. "Just ignore him. I just don't get it why does every girl in our class like Kanzaki." Said Nakamura.
After a few moments Mirai-sensei entered our class and started taking attendance. Some students started to whisper again, "Mirai-sensei is as hot as ever."
After the first period we had PE class so we all went to the changing room and started to change into our PE uniforms. It's my habit to slowly change so all of the student went to the field. When I was about to get out of the room then Kanzaki held my collar and asked," Didn't I tell you to stay away from her?" I replied, "Stay away from whom? Your mom, Huh?" He was going to punch me by saying, "You son of – " I caught his arm and said," Yesterday there were some students so I didn't do anything. But today the room is empty, whatever I do there won't be any evidence." I said again with a smile on my face," Now now why are you silent? Say something. What should I do to you?" I guess there was a dangerous look on my face because he wet his pants. I left the changing room after that.
Mamoru san asked, "Why are you late?" I replied," I just went to the washroom" Then PE class started after forming group of two students. I was grouped with Nakamura. We helped each other in stretching. In speed test I scored the top second score and Nakamura scored first. When we were taking rest, some students from other class came and one of them who is most likely the leader said, "Hey if it isn't the lucky boy who roams with Suzuki-chan" "What do you want from me?" I asked. He replied, "What's the hurry lets have some fun." I stood up and said," Nakamura, lets go" Then the boy held my collar and said," Wait I'm not done with you, who are you to Suzuki?" "I am not obligated to answer you" I replied. Then he said, "Oh yeah? Then take this" he was going to punch me. But I held his hand with a tight grip. He said, "Ouch, let go of my hand, you-" His hand made a cracking sound and I let go of his hand and went of to our class. Nakamura said, " That was neat." Mamoru-san said, "You are strong, Shoyo-kun" I replied, " I just held his hand." Then we returned to our classes
I was trying to sleep in the class, but after the teacher warned me I had to stay awake. I looked outside the window and saw something abnormal. A half-naked girl in swimsuit was coming towards our school gate, as the gate was closed, she could not come In. But she started knocking the gate with her head. After a few moments, her head started to bleed. A teacher saw this and went to help her. But she started biting the teacher and started to eat his flesh. I was seriously shocked at this and jumped up from my seat. After seeing my reaction, the students looked at the window. Some of the girls started to scream and fell onto their knees. I continued watching what was happening outside and saw the teacher who was bit, got up from the ground in an abnormal style. After that he started running and bit another teacher, then everybody got scared.
"Hey, Nakamura and Mamoru-san lets get out of here." I said. Both of them replied, "Okay." It was hard to move because there was so much students running in the hallways. And there was those weird moving creatures everywhere in the ground. Some were students, some were teachers.
