"Eeeeeeeeekk"
"Shikimori-san!"
He yelled my name while running towards me; he also quickly dropped his blazer he was wearing... But why was he wearing a blazer...? He... also had a worry expression on his face... Hmm, is he worrying about me, but why? He doesn't have any right to show this kind of expression...
As I was falling on the ground, I suddenly felt a hand at my back… I shivered at the touch, so I quickly turned my body which ended my front, or chest, in front of his face… Why is this happening to me?
But he didn't touch me anywhere improperly, even though he grabbed me by my waist but I think he have to, because if he didn't caught me then I will surely ended up getting injured badly, on the day of entrance ceremony of my high school… And maybe, there is a chance that, I will never be able to play volleyball for the rest of my life…
At last, he fell down on the ground, I though his head will definitely hit the ground, as both of his hands are helping my body not to get hurt, but he controlled his body weight to not get hurt… I also didn't know that but my hands are holding his head and not letting go… How embarrassing…
…
"Un"
"Are you alright, Shikimori-san?"
"Un"
Upon seeing me nodding my head, he showed me a small assuring smile on his face, which saying 'Thank God, you are alright', 'I don't know what will happen to me, if something were to happen to you'… HUH! W-what am I thinking? There is no way… If that's the case, then… what will I do?
I don't know, but when he called my name earlier, and showed me his worry face… My heart skipped a few beats, but… That can't be possible, that thing happened only because I was afraid that I was falling from the tree…
But why…? Why my heart is beating so fast? My face also started to heat up… I am b-blushing…? No way, no way… I don't even thought about the case that I will fall in love with anyone during my high school, because this is an all girls' school… Why?
…
I just embarrassed myself in front of many students; some of them are my classmates also, maybe, even before the first day of the school… How can I just sit on top of him, without even knowing about it?
When I was saved by him from the fall, I was just sat on top for about a minute… He also didn't say anything about it, though… But maybe he was just trying not to embarrass myself, or was he e-enjoying it… If the latter is true, then he really is pervert…
After that incident, I came inside the hall where the ceremony is going to be held…. The seniors, standing at the door, are welcoming us by saying 'Welcome to our school, we are happy that you are our juniors…' and show an assuring smile...
When I entered, I started to search for my friends and, about 2 minutes later, I found them… They are standing at the corner of the room, looking at the ground… What happened to them?
"Hello, you two"
"Oh, Micchon, you came… We thought that you will not come here…"
"Yes, Mi-chan… Kyou-chan is right…"
"Hm… Oh I just thought that since you two are going, so maybe I should also…"
…
After that, we chatted for a bit… Until and unless, the whole hall filled with the students, whether it's first year, second year or third year… The teachers also present here, there is not a single male teacher… There are only two males present inside the hall; one is the old man, who is the Chairman of our school, and other is the boy, who is a first year student, he is walking towards us… Don't tell me he is in the same class…
Everyone present there, has their eyes on him alone… Well, my gaze is also fixated on him, or to be clear on his actions… He didn't waver a bit, even though the whole school's eyes are on him; he just walked and walked, until he reached our class line… He stood at the last of our line, where he greeted the girl, who is standing just a step in front of him… Do they know each other…?
During the speech, I sometimes took a glance at him and I noticed that he is just standing there idly... As I was standing in the middle of the line, so I have turn my whole body to see him, but I didn't show any type of expression during this period… He didn't yawned, talked nor gave attention to anyone, even though many girls standing at the back, is looking at him as they want to talk…
But his eyes twitched a little, when the Chairman called out his name in front of everyone…
"And one more thing, as most of the students already noticed while some not. There is a male student enrolled here in this year. His guardian is a good friend of mine. So please help him if he needs any help, okay everyone?"
Upon hearing it, every heads turned on him… His right eyebrow slightly rose… Is he angry? Or… As I thinking this, his expression again, came back to its normal state…
Then he immediately raises his one hand, started to wave in Chairman's direction… While on his face, a smile formed… I think he is just forcing it on himself…
"There you are, Kaneki Ren-kun. Thank you for coming here."
Chairman said this. And then everyone present there, except the teachers, tilted their heads… Thinking about why he just thanked him, but no one seems to find the reason as they just started to talk with their friends, or classmates, about him…
…
And just like that, the ceremony came to an end… Many students wanted to leave for the preparation while few of them wanted to tour the school… I am with the former ones, as I don't see any point in seeing the school; if I have to I will just see the Volleyball court with my friends… But what he is going to do now…
I turned my face, here and there, to find out that he is just like me; he also is going to his home… But I wanted to talk with him…
So, I quickly reach out to him…I tapped on his shoulders and then he turned his body, in my direction…
"Kaneki-kun, we are classmates…"
"Yes, we are."
"Would you like to be my friend?"
Haah, what am I saying… I am sure he will –
"What?"
Just as I thought, he will definitely think I am a weird girl, because we just shared one or two words with each other… I should have waited more… But what I heard next, I haven't even thought about that…
"But I thought we already are friends…"
"Oh…"
…
I am, on my way back to my home, I am walking along with my friends, Kyou Nekozaki and Yui Hachimitsu, who are my friends from Junior High school…. They are my best friends, who have decided to enroll in the same school because I wanted to… They called me my surnames, such as Micchon or Mi-chan…
"Hey, Micchan… What do you think of Kaneki Ren? I think he will be a pervert, just like those boys back in our Junior High school… Right, Yui?"
"Kyou-chan, I don't think he will be like that… But who knows, maybe you are right…"
"Kyou, Yui… Can you stop talking about someone, who you guys, not even met and talk once?"
"Micchon, don't tell me…"
Kyou said this in a high voice, looking at me, and then turned her head to meet Yui… They both talked about something by their gazes and gestures… What are they talking about?
…
During our detour from school to our houses, we stopped at the bookstore… The bookstore is very famous among our age group, mainly because it sells light novels and mangas also, along with other books… We stopped there, only to find out that the anime, which came in our first year of Junior High school, has released their third volume of Manga…
'I WILL ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS LOVE YOU'
This is the name of the manga and anime, which was quite famous among both boys and girls during that time, well still is… I don't even know at that time, but the main female lead in this manga, is a typical 'dere' called 'yandere'… The author does a great work, showing a very beautiful romance between the male lead and female lead… The jealousy factor is quite famous among the boys. While the romance done between them, is quite famous among the girls, somewhat among boys also…
I bought all the Volumes because I wanted to re-read this again… And I have enough time to read this, because the school is going to open, in the next week…
