Chapter 1 - Ticking Time

sorry if this is cringe, first time on this app

Ryo's POV

"Onii-chan~ (translates to big brother) Nasuko is here. You need to get ready for school! You're already so late."

A jolly, high-pitched voice awoke me from my comfortable sleep. Please, i'm just trying to get as much sleep in so I can work in the afternoon.

"Nasuko." Rejoined my memory.

Let's just presume, she's almost like my mom. She'll lecture me whenever i'm late, yells at me for yelling at sister for doing something

horrible, and a thousand of other things . I threw the covers off of me and rushed to get ready. Pshhh, breakfast? No. Nasuko-san already was

giving me that evil, cold glare. But to my surprise, her expression softened and she jumped to hug me.

"W-whoah!"

What's this? She's not lecturing me? Huh huh huh?!

"Hahahahah!" Her little giggle made me even question the girl that clung on to me like a barnicle even more.

"You're so silly [Blank]-san~! Today's Saturday! I just woke you up so we can go get yakiniku!" (Yakiniku is a japanese meat grill dish)

HUH?!

"S-so you woke me up to get yakiniku? In the morning? Shouldn't we get ramen or udon?"

"Yes. In the morning. I'm craving it, but you don't have to work at the supermarket! If you come, I'll buy you teriyaki chicken!" She exclaimed in pure joy.

Teriyaki chicken? Say less. I'll come.

"Ok."

Her excited expression turned into a grin of evil and good. Just what was I getting myself in to?

She dragged me everywhere. Onto the crowded train, people stared at her like she was some cinnamon roll dragging a hilly billy of glaze around like nothing.

We went to 4 teriyaki chicken shops.

Teriyaki chicken is my absolute favorite food. If chicken is included in anything, say less I'm coming.

But, of course there's cons.

I get easily bribed into doing stuff for Nasuko.

I wouldn't say I'm shy like some of my Chinese friends say. I just don't enjoy getting into other people's business.

"Nasuko-san"

Since she usually calls me by my first name, she usually puts her hands on her hips and pouts at the fact that I don't call her on a first name basis even though we've been best friends since fourth grade.

Personally, I think Nasuko sounds better than Yuzuki.

Now, school talk.

N-O NO. School is living hell. Please, if you're thinking I'm one of those stereotypical bad anime boys, you best believe I'm not.

While I certainly enjoy the anime "The disastrous life of Saiki.K", it's quite strange seeing girls fangirl all over me at the school. Nasuko-san isn't popular, she's

technically a back round character according to the girls here at Nokeuma Private Highschool.

Clubs are going to be the end of me.

I had chances of getting into band, karate, etc. Yet I volunteered to do janitor work.

Stupid right? Correct but, as long as I'm here with Nasuko it's fine.

I'm usually the one who chases girls and guys who pick on Nasuko

who actually have the literal brain cell of a flip flop in the shoe

department.

"[Blank]-Senpai~!" Shouted a dainty voice from the foggy distance.

At that moment I was stuffing teriyaki chicken into my mouth.

"[Blank]-San? Do you know wh-"

"Ah, hey Jurookyn-san."

"Nasuko? What are you doing here with her? Outside of school too!" The girl said quite coldly.

"She's my best friend, we're hanging out, duh."
