That's what I want to know.
The first time I met that girl was-
About a month and a half ago.
It's April 7th, the first Monday of this month, and the first day of the new High School year.
It has been a year since I went to school.
During that prior year, I took leave from school. I should be in the second year of high school from
my 16th to 17th spring, but I was unable to attend school the entire time.
Now, I'm finally in my second year of high school.
And with the return to school, I transferred schools, from the Public High School I studied in year 1, to a private High School.
In this new school, the school won't question me on the lack of attendance as long as I've an
appropriate reason and pass the exams.
And from this moment onward, I have to take leave from school once every week.
On that morning.
I stepped into the school for the second time ever since I completed the transfer. I found my name
on the large class allocation board, and entered the classroom for the first time.
Naturally, I don't know anyone in this classroom.
This school's a co-ed, with an equal percentage of boys and girls. I heard that there'll only be a
rearrangement of classes when entering our second year, so it's not a rarity to see people
unfamiliar with others, sitting alone, like me here.
Soon after, the form teacher who's going to take care of us for 2 years entered. He's a middle-aged
male teacher.
The opening ceremony's viewed from the television installed in the classroom.
And the principal conveyed his message through the footage. I think that this method of not
requiring students to move to the gym really is comfortable and good.
Following this, my classmates begin with their self-introductions, which is not to be omitted.
I'm seated at the right side of the blackboard, the row closer to the corridor, and the second seat
from the back. After waiting for a long time, it's finally my turn.
Once the girl sitting in front of me finished her line, she sat down.
I stand up, state my name, and the foods I like, something I definitely had to say.
