The next day.
Haru got up from bed, had breakfast, washed his face, packed up his things and went to board a bus going to their school. When he arrived at the school gates, he saw Akatsuki walking while carrying her stuff. He then ran towards her and walked with her.
"Akatsuki-san" Haru said at her while smiling.
Akatsuki was still walking while her gaze is still at the road. She didn't bat an eyelid to Haru who seems non-existent for her. Haru found it funny because of the incident yesterday.
"Ummm... Akatsuki-san?" Haru repeated his words half-heartedly while waving her hand in Akatsuki's face.
Akatsuki tsked and turned her head on the other side. Haru could barely hide his laughter and decided to tease her.
"So cold" Haru teased her with a giggle but she seemed to didn't mind, which made Haru completely upset.
When they arrived, their classmates began to chat but when they saw the frown on the face of Akatsuki; they began to settle down.
"Good morning president." A lot of their classmates greeted Akatsuki and chat with her. As if changing personalities, she smiled warmly and greeted them. Haru saw this and was dumbfounded for a second there. He just wanted to go near her and give her a scolding.
After Haru put down his bag on his chair, he sat down.
"So, what happened?" Takamura asked Haru with a smirk on his face.
Haru pretended not to hear him and fixed his gazed at Akatsuki who is laughing with her friends. Haru is cursing in his mind and decided to tease her later.
"Takamura, why did you went home so early without us?" Haru asked while turning around. He wore a sarcastic smile which Takamura found annoying.
"I ran on some errands" Takamura said while
"Really?"
"Yeah"
"Or maybe you're upset!" Sakamoto on the other side put down his book and interrupted the two of them.
"You want a fight Sakamoto?!"
"Yeah, let's do rock-paper-scissors."
"F**k You!"
Haru laughed at the side while the two of them was bantering each other. This happened almost everyday where the rest of the class just watch them and laugh along.
He occasionally glanced at Akatsuki who doesn't give a f*** about him. While glancing at Akatsuki, she suddenly turned around and also glanced at Haru. When the two pair of eyes met, Haru could feel his back drenched in cold sweat where he remembered Akatsuki telling him something about getting chopped up and fed to the fishes.
Soon, the bell ranged.
After the third subject was finished, which is English; Haru and the rest of the class went to their locker rooms to change to their PE shirts.
Haru took the opportunity to go beside Akatsuki, but to no avail; she still didn't talk with him and just walked at her locker while laughing with her friends.
"Damn, I messed up big time!" Haru secretly thought in his mind while cursing at Atsuhi and Airi.
After all of them got changed, they made their way to the field. Their coach told them to run on the field. fifteen laps for the boys and eight laps for the girls.
Haru and the rest started jogging. Haru intentionally made the distance between him and Akatsuki closer. Akatsuki would move a little to the left to avoid him. Their classmates saw this and the girls felt envious of Akatsuki, but when they saw her face; they could just surppress their thoughts and continued to run.
This continued until the seventh lap where Haru could feel his body become heavier by the second. His breath was also becoming more ragged and he could feel his heart beating loudly. He looked at the sun and because of the heat, his eyes became blurry and all of a sudden; he tripped and twisted his ankle. Because of the heat and intense pain slowly creeping on his body, his vision became dark and the last thing he remembered was Akatsuki calling for help.
When he fainted, all of the students halted and some of the girls panicked. Akatsuki shouted and almost all of the male students ran up to her.
They lifted Haru and put him on a bench where the other students watched the scene. Some students despised Haru for being weak but have the guts to date their Goddess.
Akatsuki felt a little guilty and a indescribable feeling rose in her heart. She seems very nervous about Haru and even decided to tag along when they put him in the infirmary.
When Haru woke up, he saw through the window that the sky already turned dark. He immediately got up but he suddenly felt the pain on his left foot.
"Are you OK?" a voice suddenly said. He turned his head towards the direction of the sound and saw Takamura and Sakamoto.
"Yeah--but I guess I can't walk straight for the next few days. Haru replied while laughing.
"Haru" Sakamoto called him seriously.
"Woah! What is with that face? What is it?" Haru asked Sakamoto while teasing him.
"Just when you fainted, Akatsuki was really worried about you, so she persuaded the teachers to look after you. She just leave about 15 minutes ago to go home." Sakamoto said to him.
"Oh, I see"
The three of them chatted and leave the infirmary with the help of his two bros supporting him from each side. They then boarded a cab for Haru.
