Yuji arrived at his dormitory, "This day sure is bland" he whispered to himself. He reached for his bag and took out the cap. It has the initials M.O., "M.O.? is this initials for a name?". Yuji rack his brain trying to remember a name that has MO initials.
He tossed the cap to his study desk, "I give up" he said as he lay down to his bed. After a while he remembered the deal he had with Loid, "I should check my e-mail and learn about this group" he said to himself as he opens his phone.
"MISAMO" he read it out loud, "A trio idol group, kinda new" he stated as he looks at the poster. All the girls were beautiful but one caught his attention the most, it was the girl with the short hair and bangs.
He got off the email and go to youtube, he watched the debut song of the group, Yuji was never a fan of pop songs but, "Woah, they're good" he was amazed by them.
The song was titled 'Dahlia' a song that describe the three girl's beauty and simpleness.
Although Yuji like their song, he was still not interested on pop idols. He grabbed his phone and check for the date of the fan meeting and to his surprise,
"This Sunday?! Already?" he said getting up from the bed, he dialed Loid's phone number,
It rang two times and Loid picks it up, "Dude, it's already this Sunday?" Yuji softly yelled,
Loid had an evil laugh, "You already said yes, no more turning back zombie" he replied, "Damn you, when should I get the merchandise stuff?" Yuji asked.
"Woah, it's just Monday relax dude, its making you look like you're interested" Loid laugh,
"Not at all" He answered calmly before hanging up the call. He tossed his phone on the bed and head to his mini refrigerator, "Oh right, I don't have groceries yet" he said as he reach for his sling bag and wear it on his back.
He rushed outside to go to the nearest convenient store, he picked up canned sodas and a carton of eggs and milk. He then goes to the school supplies section, he grabbed a two notebooks and a pencil. "Will this be enough?" he asked himself,
"Nope dude" a random guy answered, Yuji looked for the guy, it was the convenient store worker. Their eyes met, "The semester just started, you should stock up so you won't waste time going in and out" he said.
It was a guy as tall as Yuji with handsome features and a deep voice like him.
Yuji agreed and grabbed another basket and filled it with groceries, after filling it he head to the counter and pay-up, as he did, the guy on the counter try to open a conversation.
"You're Yuji of the Civil Engineering Department right?" the guy asked, Yuji just nodded and opened the mobile wallet app on his phone.
"Names Mendel, from the architecture department in the same school" he introduced himself while scanning the QR code on Yuji's phone.
After their transaction as Yuji was about to leave he spoke, "Thanks dude" he said tossing a can of soda. Mendel caught it, "Thanks man" Yuji just nodded.
He walks home and he notice posters being hanged, it was posters of MISAMO. He stopped and stared at one, 'Woah, they're getting popular fast' he talks in his mind.
Suddenly someone puts an arm over his shoulder, he was startled and move away. It was Mendel, "Calm down, I thought we were cool" he said, "Yeah we are, but don't come up on people" Yuji answered.
Mendel had a small laugh, "My Bad" he said also staring at the poster, "Also a fan?" Mendel asked.
"Not really" Yuji answered in a cold voice, "Me neither" Mendel replied.
"Shouldn't you be working?" Yuji asked, "Shifts over" he answered with his eyes still on the poster.
Both of them was silent as they were looking at the poster. Without knowing young teenage girls took a picture of them both staring at the big poster.
After a while both decided to part ways, "See you around dude" Yuji said turning his back and waiving the back of his hand on Mendel. "Yeah" Mendel said going the other way.
Yuji arrived at his dormitory and instantly get the electric kettle, he opened up a cup noodle and cracked an egg. He poured the hot water on the cup noodles and wait for it.
He was about to eat when suddenly his phone rang, it was loid "Dude you're the one on the internet right?" he was shouting,
"Internet your face" Yuji replied, "Open the link I sent you" He said,
To his surprise it was a photo of him and Mendel staring at the picture, "Fuck!" he exclaimed, "Who the fuck took this?!" he swore.
Loid was laughing on the other line, "Don't worry, no one will know it's you, look you're all covered up" Loid said.
"Still, why would people do this?" Yuji stated reading the article "Fanboys?!" he shouted once more and Loid was laughing so hard at the other side.
Yuji was pissed and hanged up the phone, he tossed the cup noodles at the trash bin and just opened up a book.
"If it wasn't for that beautiful cat I wouldn't be on this shit" he said to himself
He just read until he fell asleep on his desk. Morning came and his alarm clock rang, he rose up his head with his back hurting.
"How did I fall asleep on the desk?" he said standing up and grabbing a towel for a shower.
Few minutes have passed and Yuji was ready for school, he puts on his headphones and played the new MISAMO song on repeat.
He walks out the door, "Let's start studying" he said before walking to school.
As he arrives at the campus, Loid was at the gate waiting for him. Yuji didn't notice him, and suddenly Loid grabbed his headphones and listen to what was playing.
Loid was smiling when he heard Dahlia playing, "Dude, you're into it" he said laughing.
Yuji snatched his headphones back, "Just shut up, only interested in the song" he explained before heading inside.
Loid walks with him, "Come by my house later, I'll give you the merch" Loid stated, Yuji just nods at him.
"Don't take too long, ciao" Loid said running towards the stairs.
Yuji just brushed off his irritation and walks toward the room, he sat down and talk to himself,
'Let the learning begin' his inner nerd said.
