Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 : The Small But Big Bet

"Does anyone want me to explain the integrating Kinematics. "

"No" Sanaka mumbles to herself again.

"No one. I will explain it again anyway."

"thump " is the sound of Sanaka falling to the floor.

However Sanaka might have a 'too cool for school' attitude. However, She is not, she has friends and talks to a lot of people but most would think she is just a slightly untypical nerd. Her face is plain. She doesn't wear glasses but you would get the impression she does. She is no means a good looker at all. She however knows that her friend Hayate is what people would call a cute looker. Hayate is that typical cute Japanese girl that has black hair and bangs that just seem to make her eyes look even bigger. Coincidentally no one has ever except maybe her mum has told Sanaka that she is a good looker, yet she thinks she is. She is however very academic where she studies half the time of a normal person. And right now she is just waiting for the bell ring.

I was just sitting here on another painfully annoying day when I heard a conversation that Hayate seemed to be very into.

"Nah I will try out but it's hard. I think Tayaki's little sister is even going to be there" Hataya says in a cute, small voice. Connor seems to be eating it up, and all the other girls.

"What are you trying out for?"

"An Idol" Connor says as if he is making some point. Connor is one of those people with the cool haircut and slightly wavy type hair. Yes he is pretty good at baseball, his only good aspect in his life, And he thinks that every girl wants him.

"Why do you wanna be an Idol, your grades aren't that bad"

"Maybe she just wants to be an idol" the two twins Mai and Sai chime in. I would kind of think of them as Connors fan club. Back to their comment I don't really see anyone wanting to be an Idol. But like a smart person who is friends with Hayate I don't say it.

"Who wants to be an Idol?" I said it by accident.

"Just because you're too ugly to become an Idol. doesn't mean you have to downplay it as a career." Connor says smugly.

Career, how the hell does this thing pass as a career, you retire when you're in your twenties and then you're stuck in the world with a small amount of money. Or I guess you can become an actor or something. Well if you're really good you could be like Mayaki or Taiyaki and go overseas.

Back to the comment about me.

" You don't think I could become an Idol because you think I am ugly."

"Yeh" Connor says smugly. Now he has done it, I don't know what I'm thinking but.

"Well I will become an Idol and show it in your face" I say putting a leg up onto the chair. Putting my face close to his. I wanted to punch him but I held self restraint.

"Let's see about that." his face smiling too smugly. I'm gonna have to rip that smug smile apart..

"What the hell are you guys doing?" the teacher says, with a very confused face on. The whole class is also looking at us with confusion.

I'm standing outside the school gate. I had just said goodbye to Hayate. After asking her when the trial was, she said that we have 3 months till the trial, well that's what I thought she said. Anyway now I'm just gonna have to do some extreme practice. I'll have to get my brother to pay for the lessons. He is one of those guys that surprisingly have a lot of money, He somehow also wrangled himself into an engineering degree.

Speak of the devil. Around the corner in his stupid Bentley. As usual everyone stares as they drive way too fast. When I say they I mean it's one of his two friends or him. Sid and Samarchi, all three studying the same degree. All three idiots.

They come to an abrupt stop in front of me. It was my brother driving. I open the door.

"nah , she was a psycho, the crazy kid in school." my brother says with one eyebrow frowning as if what he is saying it's common sense. He has black shaggy hair that kind of does its own thing. His eyebrows are a softer black. However he has a fairly common face, not really anything distinct. He hits the gym yet he is twig like well all three of them even know they've been hitting the gym for like two years.

"But it's Tayaki" Sid exclaims in exasperated expression. He has a buzz cut and is quite a short guy.

"What up Sis" he says interrupting Sid in an annoying voice to annoy me, he knows I don't like being called sis.

"A boy" Samarchi says he is decently tall with coolish greyish black hair.

My brother waves off the comment. But Samarchi is true I guess to some extent.

"Yeh, I guess"

my brother raises one eyebrow.

"Well I have decided to become an Idol because stupid Connor says I am too ugly to become one." I say maybe a bit too aggressively.

They all look at each other with the stupid 'should we tell her that it's true look'.

"You want to become an Idol, because you made a bet with someone." Sabiti says( that's my brother's name). His look is kind of a look of concern and almost pain. I end up explaining everything about Hayate who is doing tryouts in three months. He also asked about which Idol agency we were trying out for. He just said make sure it's CX co, in a slight laugh which seemed quite odd.

I don't know why I am standing in the middle of Toorla street with my brother and for some reason his stupid friends. Toorla street is one of the main streets in Kakylande, we are currently in the walking only section with obviously a lot of people walking by us. It was a nice summer day I guess so it wasn't as bad as it could be.

"Why are we here?" I ask my brother who is looking around at our surroundings with a scouting look.

"Training."

"Do I need it?"

"Well maybe if your friend hadn't picked CX co. but that is assuming you are of.. Well.. average ability." my brother says while pulling an eyebrow up.

"Still"

"Sid" my brother says, hinting for Sid to speak with his hands. Sid turns to me as if he has been given a pretty important mission. His eyes even show a hint of pity..

"Your ugly"

"What?"

"Your voice kills people's brain cells, your brother may have been decently of average intelligence without you"

"What the hell Sid, you didn't need to add that. I'm not dumb" My brother says in a mini outroar.

I hope these idiots have a reason for this.

"However we have this." my brother says pulling out a very large book out of his bag. From the looks on Sid and Samarchi I can assume that they did not know about the book prior to him showing them.

"Well how is that meant to fix ALL MY FLAWS" maybe I got a bit aggressive towards the end of that.

"I spent the last two days studying and meticulously browsing websites that shouldn't exist, and don't exist, and figured out the perfect way to become successful. Putting it into a training program."

Well I don't know if my brother is okay. And Sid and Samarchi seem to be thinking the same.

"He actually studied?" they murmur. No, they weren't thinking the same as me. However my brother looked fairly smug, so I assume that he must be fairly confident in the ability of this book.

"Well then, lets try the first lesson, before you make too many judgements." he says opening the book. We all walk over to look at the insides of the book. He opens up to the first page with lots of sketches of peoples faces. One of them with very odd earrings.

"First lesson. According to my research, these six faces are the key to make any female be able to draw people to them. It shows that there is one face for each different quality of faces. A handsome face, a beautiful face, an average face, a ugly face , a cute face, and a weird face."

They start analysing the ugly face. I don't really understand why.

"Okay Sanaka, do this face" they say pointing at the ugly person's face. Very funny of them to make a joke like that.

"Ill do the beautiful face" I say as I start practicing the face. After practising well actually for not that long.

"Well she still looks ugly." Sid comments looking at me as I pull the face.

"Well we know what she looks like normally so maybe that puts our senses off. Like even if a garbage was shaped into a beautiful object, we would still think it's garbage." Samarchi says in a philosophical way.

After making sure people understand that it is not okay to insult me like that.

"How do we test it?"

My brother smiles slightly.

"Ask a guy out."

Well It makes sense, but I am not a fan.

.

"It's okay Sanaka, at least the next reaction can't be worse than that" my brother says patting my back.

"Why did he scream tho" I Sob out, I thought the worst they could say was no.

"Your stupid book doesn't work" I Say as I grab his collar and shake him up.

"Well we can't be sure until you've tried the ugly face can we?" Samarchi says while readjusting non existent glasses.

That didn't work, it was actually worse than the first one." Sid says observantly. I then proceeded to be rejected for the people with a cute face, an average face, and a handsome face. So reluctantly I make the ugly person's face.

"OMG" Samarchi and Sid Scream.

'You look the same' is my prediction.

"You look slightly different" they say together, raising an eyebrow, my brother now increasingly looking worried.

"Well go on, try that guy." Sid says pointing to a guy sitting and eating a sandwich. I give them a piercing gaze and walk off.

However, I'm stopped by this guy, and then this girl and people start coming in from nowhere. People swarm asking for photo signatures.

After battling with people swarming me for 30 minutes I make it back to Sid Samarchi and my brother. They look at me and then the book.

"How powerful is this thing?" Sid trembles out.

"Do we have the responsibility to bear such great power" Samarchi says as he shakes apart.

" I don't know," my brother says, holding the book out.

"What's wrong Sanaka" my brother says, switching back to his usual self.

"YOUR STUPID BOOK SAYS I'M UGLY" I scream out at the top of my lungs while on my knees. Maybe a bit of an exaggeration. My brother seems to try comforting me but he seems more focused on the fact that the book actually worked.
