Looking at his computer screen, Kasamatsu Yukio sighed, wondering what surprise his childhood friend had in store for them. Yawning, the teen bid Moriyama goodbye as he logged out of the chat, preparing for the big day the next day.
*Time skip to first day of high school*
Kasamatsu walked to his homeroom, wanting to reach there as early as possible to settle down. Once he got there, he chose a seat and sat down, staring of into space, wondering how the freshmen would be like. Soon, Moriyama arrived and sat next to him.
"Yo Kasamatsu," Moriyama greeted.
"Hey Moriyama," replied Kasamatsu, taking out a book to read.
"Say, what do you think the surprise is?"
"Who knows…?"
Kasamatsu thought about his childhood friend. Her name is Kuroi Rei and yes, you didn't read wrongly, Kasamatsu has a girl as a friend (probably the only girl he's going to be friends with).
With a pair of astonishing jade-coloured eyes and soft, sky blue hair, she's the same age as Kasamatsu, and is also friends with Moriyama. They attended the same middle school and club (she was the manager), but reluctantly split up during after middle school due to her father's job transfer to another region in Japan. After splitting up for 2 years, Kasamatsu (and Moriyama, he believes) misses her cheerful, cheeky yet soothing personality.
"Well, we can think about her surprise later. Class is going to start soon," Kasamatsu said, snapping out of his reverie as the bell rang.
Soon, the homeroom teacher came in. After the students had greeted him, he said, "Class, we have a new student joining us today. She had transferred from another high school. Please welcome her warmly and make her feel at ease."
The noise level rose in the classroom once he had said that. "Transferring at this time? It's the third year of high school…" someone muttered. Clearing his throat, the homeroom teacher successfully gained the students' attention. "You may now come in," he called out to the student in the hallway. The girl walked in, sky blue hair tied up in a ponytail swishing to and fro. A pair of jade-green eyes greeted them.
Both Moriyama and Kasamatsu looked up with a start, mouth agape.
"Rei…!"
