chapter 1 - The Unexpected Meeting
Seiichi Yukimura is walking towards home from supermarket, carrying with him some kitchen supplies. As he passes the crossing, he suddenly notices a handicapped child who had apparently fallen on the dirt at the side of the road, evidenced from his dirtied state but he was trying to pick his crutch as nobody was helping him. Yukimura being a kind person, takes a step to help him when suddenly he sees-
A brunette girl taller than the child, looking almost of his age, gets the child's crutches, she cleans the child's face of dirt with her sleeve, getting herself dirty in the process and wets her handkerchief with her water bottle and wraps it on the little scratch that the boy got, which was bleeding only a little and smiles brightly at him and tells him not to cry, from how much he could make out. She then helps him cross the road and tells him some direction which the child had apparently asked. When the child thanked her, she just smiled brightly and told him its okay, waved and said bye. The child smiled gratefully and went on his own way.
' Looks like she hasn't noticed me yet.' Yukimura thought.
She looks at her dirtied sleeve and at the going boy and smiles brightly satisfactorily, Yukimura is suddenly reminded of a brightly bloomed cherry blossoms and their petals falling with the wind, signifying beauty, she clutches her hand bag and goes her own way which Yukimura noticed is just beside his own home meaning, they are neighbours.
Yukimura walks to his home, when he enters his sister helps him to take the supplies at the kitchen then she asks, " Nii-san, did something good happened? You are smiling."
He answers, " Ahh, something good did happened." He smiles warmly remembering her helpful deed and her bright smile when he thought she would frown over her dirtied sleeve, there are some girls who are of this type. He thinks.

RIKKAIDAI FUZOKU a prestigious school where the 'ordinary' people can only dream to come but it's a heaven of and for talented people. Be it lawn tennis, basketball , table tennis, music and dance to say a few and so does their motto signifies
'ALWAYS WIN RIKKAIDAI '
But in this very school, an appearance of a Spirited Bird might make a change in the school for the Fate has already started turning its wheel for two similar yet different characters, so we begin…
RIIING RINNG!
The bell for the closing of gates and a horrific reminder for late students, rang at the school of marvels, Rikkaidai Fuzoku.
BOYS TENNIS COURT-
As always the practice is going on with the 3 demons scaring –ahem!- ordering the members to run laps or making them do hard training.
"Fuku buchou! Please have some mercy, I can't hit any more balls, you have already made me hit 1000 tennis balls." Kirihara whined.
"To become tired by this little exercise- TARUNDORU!" Sanada shouted.
Yukimura just smiled as usual.
" Ahhh!" Kirihara screamed, the ball he hit went outside of the wire fence onto the path from where students go to their class.
"AHH! let me bring the ball." Yelled Kirihara.
"Matte, (1) Akaya, I will bring the ball as all members are busy with their training and you might get a reason to get rest if you go." Yukimura said serenely.
"heeeee!" Kirihara whimpered.
As Yukimura turns-
While these things were happening another event was taking place not so far away-
"AHHHHHHH!"
A girl with shoulder length black hair, parted at the right side, wearing the Rikkaidai school uniform with black tights, rushes in madly just few seconds before the gate closes. "Yeah!" She does the pose of a batsman who has completed his run in baseball.
"Noooo!"
Alas! as she realizes, she is horribly late for her first class of the year without even knowing which class she is assigned to. She again picks up her pace and like a cheetah, rushes madly on the path to meet the principal when she suddenly sees an innocent, sparkling, (dare she say) shimmering green ball i.e an apparently harmless tennis ball lying on her way but again, alas! she is too late to stop her speed , she fails to put her brakes on time as she slips on the stupid ball and falls harshly on her butt but the ball with a mind of its own ends up hitting a certain blunette who was coming to get the ball in the head with, (mind you) a great force.
"Ahh!"
The ball hits quite hard at Yukimura's forehead. He staggers backward due to the force, slips and hits his head quite hard at the wire fence.
"BUCHOU! YUKIMURA!"
All regulars rush to their beloved captain's side. But except the 'murderer' as she was getting very late and without even looking who she had hurt, she resumes her mad running to go to her destination carrying her tennis duffle bag and her school bag safely.
"To hit and not apologise, Tarundoru!" shouts Sanada who had seen the whole scene.
"Lets take him to infirmary." Marui suggested, Sanada lifts his captain in bridal style.
"All of you go back to practice, I will take Yukimura to infirmary." Sanada said.
"Alright." All the regulars agreed.
"What happened? Puri!" asked Niou.
Akaya explained.
"Heh, isn't she a brave soul, who is she exactly?" Asked Jackal.
Renji takes this as his cue to begin. "She is Ria Miyamoto, newly transferred here from America."
All regulars sweat dropped, count on Renji to get all details, it will be only the doomsday when he doesn't has data.
"Why so little information?" asked Marui.
"Because today is her first day."
"Ohh! Okay."
I will take revenge on behalf of you buchou, just wait Ria Miyamoto I will make your first day hell.
These are the thoughts of the little member of the Rikkaidai regulars, without realizing that he was the main cause for his captain's current predicament.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
AT THE INFIRMARY-
Yukimura wakes up.
"Ah, Yukimura you have woken up." Sanada said. "The nurse just left because of some work."
"Ahh, thank you Sanada for carrying me up here." Yukimura smiles but Sanada notices the hint of malice when he said the word 'carrying.'
"Your welcome."
"Sanada go to your class, I will be fine, no need to miss class because of me."
Sanada wanted to retaliate then but after seeing Yukimura smiling, he swallows those words and goes to his class.
Hhuu! Yukimura sighs. 'Who was she?' Yukimura tries to remember the culprit.
Bam!
Suddenly the door opens and closes.
Yukimura turns to see the newcomer, surprised to see the girl who caused the incident and he somehow finds her familiar, like he has seen her even before today's incident.
"Owww!" She cries while holding her nose, "It hurts!" who has apparently not noticed the other soul.
"Great! first day and first visit to the infirmary, great Ria just great." The girl called Ria berates herself. "Not to mention because of that stupid tennis ball I also had accidentally hit another person, I think at least, from the groan I had heard." She wails dramatically.
Yukimura looks with amusement at the newcomer.
"What should I do? I couldn't apologize as I was getting late, mou!" she walks to and fro. " Maybe that person is angry and is secretly cursing, what if that person is a gangster? Ria you idiot!" she starts hitting herself in head. "what should-
Abruptly she hears chuckling. And she finally notices there is someone else other than her.
"Ohh don't mind me, please continue." Yukimura says amusingly.
'What is this brunette saying?' when she suddenly realizes that he is referring to her.
She blushes and apologizes furiously "I am sorry, really sorry." she bows.
"No need to be ." Yukimura replies kind heartedly.
"By the way, are you the nurse here?" She asks as she walks to him.
"No, actually I am a patient." Replies Yukimura.
"Heeh! " She sits near him on a chair.
Yukimura finally gets a close look at her face and recognizes her as the girl from previous evening.
Swiftly she thrusts her hand to him, "Hi! I am Ria Miyamoto, nice to meet you. What's your name?"
Bit shocked by sudden introduction, being the gentlemen he is, Yukimura slowly takes her hand and shakes it. "Yukimura Seiichi, nice to meet you too." He says while thinking 'so she isn't blushing, even though she is near me' as he takes his hand back. But he feels awkward because-
She continues looking at him.
She breaks the silence by speaking " You are beautiful, you know." she says, while smiling a bright innocent smile.
Yukimura was taken aback, surely. "Thank you"
He then looks at her nose where it is bright red, like an-
"Apple."
"What?" she asks.
"Your nose looks like an apple."
"Oops," she blushes, "I forgot about it."
she takes the medicine to apply to her nose when it slips from her hand. Luckily Yukimura manages to catch it.
"I think its better if I do it."
"Sorry." she smiles sheepishly, "Thank you" she bows but hits her nose on the bed.
"Owww!"
Yukimura learnt few things about her.
Her name is Ria Miyamoto and she is too clumsy for her own good.
and she isn't attracted to him like all other girls.
He puts medicine over the affected area on her face he is continuously reminded of a bright red apple.
He finishes putting the medicine.
"Thank you" she replies.
"Your welcome."
"By the way, how did you you get here?" Ria asked.
and she was too curious.
Oh well it won't hurt to tell her, maybe she will remember. Yukimura contemplates. So he narrates the whole incident.
"Hehhh!" she says, "must be a really stupid person to not apologise." "hmmm" she nods her head.
Yukimura looks at her disbelievingly, she doesn't remember that he is talking about her.
and she is very dense.
"How did you get your nose red?" he asked playfully.
"Oh! don't even talk about it." she pouts, as she remembers and narrates it to him.
Flashback-
CLASS 2-D
Ria's POV
I stood before my soon-to-be classmates.
"Hello guys, my name is Miyamoto Ria, its nice to meet you, I am 13 years old, I love playing tennis-
an ear perked up, as a perfect revenge plan came to him.
-I am a transfer student from America, I can speak 4 different languages including japanese."
"Yes, miyamoto san, it will be enough please go to your place." The sensei interrupted.
The whole class snickered.
"All right." I went to my seat with a bright smile.
Fate is not to be underestimated. Ria sits on the seat behind Kirihara.
The maths teacher starts teaching for their first period.
He looks to see me smiling.
"Stand up you!" he said to me.
"Why are you smiling? Is a joke going on here!"
Bit shocked "Umm no sir" I replied, "just that I am finally here in Rikkaidai, I wanted to study here soo.. um. I feel happy." I smiled brightly again.
Everybody snickers and I smile with them.
"No need to be so happy." He shouts,
He threw the chalk at me . I caught it.
Did I do something wrong? I wonder.
"Define rational numbers."
"Any number that is written as a fraction and simply."
"What is the definition ? "
"Sir, I just told that."
"Anybody else ? "
A student raises his hand.
"Yes ? "
"A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers."
"Excellent"
"But sir" I asked "I told the same in simple language."
"In exam you won't get marks for writing just that, now , out of my class."
"What?" I reply. "why?"
"If she doesn't leave then I won't take this class."
Che, unfair teacher.
Everybody starts pleading to me.
"Stupid" The teacher whispers.
I stop and turn back towards class.
"What happened ? "
"Sir, clothes joined in such a way that it can fit a limited number of things, available in many shapes or sizes, colors, with many adjustments like pockets etc can be used to carry a number of materials, very helpful to people from young to old especially to students, usually taken on shoulders sometimes...in hand."
Everybody was stumped.
"What are you trying to say? "
"School bag , sir, I forgot it. "
Everybody started laughing.
"Silence, Can't you say in simple words ! "
"I had tried that sir, but you didn't liked it. "
Everybody resumes laughing.
As I turn to move out I hit my nose in the door. "ouch!"
The whole class laughs again, I just smiled sheepishly at my class mates and exit the room to go to infirmary.
Flashback end
Normal Pov-
"Hmm, so this is what happened." Yukimura replies, all the while listening curiously to her story.
"But you are young to attend second year, aren't you?" He asks.
"I know but you can say I am advanced as I also have few classes with the third years, I have most periods with the second years though." Replies Ria.
"Hmmm ." He says while being amazed at her.
"Are you a third year?" Ria asks.
"Yes, class 3-C"
"Hehhhh! 3-C! It's the class with whom I have few of my periods. What a coincidence, eh!" Ria remarks. "Well it was nice meeting you Yukimura-senpai. I must be going to my class as the second period is about to begin." Ria then bows and goes out.
Yukimura frowns ' That carefree attitude and smile is what I hate the most, Rikkaidai isn't such a place where you live with this attitude, its all about hard work and winning, looks like she always got everything easy, but that smile will change once she learns the ways of Rikkaidai, because one can't understand spring's warmth if one hasn't experienced the harsh winter. '
Yukimura suddenly remembered that he also will be getting late . Looks like, I will be seeing her more often.
All of a sudden a realization dawned upon him.
She didn't apologize.
