On that day, Takeshi Kawamura had an exceptionally early customer. As he was getting ready for school, and his father was preparing to open his shop, they were both interrupted by a jingle.
"A customer?" His dad wondered as he stepped down the stairs.
"Ah, hello," A girl's voice echoed throughout the store, "Are you open or am I too early?"
"We're just about to open so we don't have much yet…"
"Oh, its okay, I don't want much, just something small for breakfast."
"Well then, I'll see what I can do,"
Kawamura who had finally finished getting ready for school came downstairs to see what the commotion was about.
"Who was that?" He asked.
"Some schoolgirl who wanted breakfast from here… actually, she looked like someone from your school…"
On that day, Shuichiro Oishi helped guide an underclassman to their school. Oishi grabbed his bag and was walking the usual way when he saw a girl wearing a seigaku uniform, going the opposite way of where the school was.
He approached the girl, trying to be polite as possible and asked, "Excuse me, are you lost?"
When she turned around to face him, the word confusion was practically written on her face. She was holding a plastic bag that was obvious that it was from Kawa-san's sushi place.
"I am lost," She frowned, "I asked someone near here for directions and they were kind enough to draw me a map … but I can't tell if I'm going the right way…"
"A map? Let me see, I might be able to help you!" Oishi took the map from her and tried to pinpoint where they were right now.
"Well…?"
Oishi stared at the map. He flipped it to the right. He flipped it forward, backward and even turned it around. No matter what angle you looked at this map, it was impossible to tell where you were going. This so called "map" that someone had drawn her was merely a drawing of a circle that said you are here, and a road that went straight until it reached a small rectangle that said seigaku. No matter how smart you were, it was obvious that this map served no help in reaching her destination.
"Well… I don't really understand the map, but if you're trying to get to Seigaku, I could help you,"
"Eh? Really? If you did I'd be in your debt!"
Oishi smiled and led the way. As Oishi walked, Sayuri couldn't help but notice that this person… looked like a boiled egg. She chuckled to herself at her interesting discovery but she quickly realized how rude it was and stopped immediately.
"So judging from your uniform, I'm guessing you're a student there too?" She asked, wanting to make friends before she arrived.
"Yeah, I am. I'm Oishi Shuichiro, 3rd year, and you?"
And just like this, he led her all the way to the school.
On that day, Inui Sadaharu had one extra person to collect data on. He was making a stop to the bathroom, when suddenly he saw a new face in school that he hadn't seen before. He made note of it right away, because he knew everyone that went to the school and she wasn't going to be an exception. She was short, well shorter than he was. He estimated that she was about 165cm, an okay height for a girl, he noted, although a little on the short side. She had side bangs that didn't cover all of her hair but almost about 5/6th of her forehead. In her eyes there reflected a determination, though he wasn't sure what she was determined to be doing. But judging by her walking pace, he deducted that she was late for class. He carefully took note of all of her features, and decided that he would gather more information about her later.
On that day, Kaoru Kaido earned a new classmate. He was paying attention to the teacher when the teacher suddenly stopped his lecture to introduce a new student to the school. But before he could do that the teacher first scolded her for being late. The girl introduced herself to the class, but Kaido wasn't really listening although the other people in his class were more than happy to have another girl in their class. Kaido hissed at the ruckus her presence was making.
As soon as her introduction was over, Kaido realized that she was approaching him. He hissed even louder, which surprised her.
"Good morning!" She exclaimed merrily.
Kaido stared at her, even though it seemed like more of a glare and went back to staring out the window.
"Kaido-san right?" She attempted to make conversation with him, because after all she was his seat mate.
He turned back to stare glare at her and she smiled. She seemed to be unfazed by him.
"You can call me Sayuri, I hope we can get along."
"….."
Sayuri frowned, her seatmate clearly didn't want to talk to her. It was hard making friends… but she wouldn't give up just yet.
On that day, Eiji Kikumaru got to skip class because he was showing a new student around school.
"Hey, Eiji, someone's here to see you… it's a girl…"
Eiji who was sleeping at that time, opened one eye just to see who it was and to his surprise, it actually was a girl.
"Eeeh? A girl?" Eiji yawned, sat straight up and walked toward the door.
"Ah, are you Eiji Kikumaru?" She smiled
"… ah yeah, what's up?"
"ah, um… I think you were assigned to show me around…" She held out a letter to Eiji and he read it in a matter of seconds.
"That's me, well then let me show you around!" Eiji smiled, he loved underclass men. They were so tiny and it reminded him of his younger siblings back home.
"Ah! No fair, Eiji, you get to skip class and spend time with a girl!" His classmates complained.
"zannen munen mata raishuu~" Eiij waved as he walked out the door with Sayuri.
He walked around, explaining everything that he could remember about the school to Sayuri. She took everything in and tried to remember what he was saying. It didn't take a long time for Sayuri to realize why Eiji was so popular in school. His carefree personality, his smile, and the way he presented himself were all contributing factors. She thought the bandaid on his face was a little odd but she didn't have the courage to ask someone she just met about it. After they strolled around the school more than three times, it was over and Eiji brought her to the roof of the school.
"So, that concludes our tour, any questions?" He yawned and looked up at the sky.
She thought for a minute before asking, "What's there to do here?"
"hrm, I mean there's a lot to do here, you can join clubs I guess?"
"Like what? What clubs are you in?"
"Tennis!" He smiled, "You should come watch me play~"
"Do you like to play?"
"Yeah~ playing doubles with Oishi is fun! Its like, the ball goes whoosh, right by you and then you go whoosh and then you hit the ball and then wham, it hits the other side and then they call the score, 15 love and then you're filled with a happy feeling. Oh wait, you don't know who Oishi is yet, when the time comes, I'll introduce you!" Eiji smiled at Sayuri, deep inside he believed that he described the feeling quite well.
Sayuri watched as Eiji tried to explain the feeling of playing tennis. His eyes lit up automatically, and to her he seemed like a little kid.
She let out a burst of laughter.
"What? What's so funny?" Eiji didn't understand why she was laughing at all.
"Ne, Senpai, are you sure you're older than me?' She teased.
"eeeh? You shouldn't be saying things like that to your senpai, kouhai!" Eiji patted her head. "Go back to class now!"
Sayuri gave him a look of disapproval and straightened her hair again. "What about you senpai?"
"Shh, don't ask so many questions, be a good kouhai and go to class!" Eiji pushed her to the exit, smiled, and shut the door.
"…..stupid senpai." She grumbled as she made her way back to class.
On that day, Takeshi Momoshiro ate one less loaf of bread because the last one had been taken by someone else. It was lunch time, and Momo, being a person that ate much more than what he looked like could eat, was craving bread. But Momo wasn't the type of person to eat just one piece of bread; he was the type of person to eat 5.
Momo was just about to grab his 5th piece of bread when a small hand intercepted his hand and grabbed the last piece of bread. Judging by the hand he couldn't tell who it was but as soon as he got out of the crowd, he spotted the girl that took his food.
On that day, Ryoma Echizen asked a girl for instructions and ended up getting lost because she didn't know where she was going either.
"… where.. am I?" Ryoma tilted his cap to the side and tried to analyze his surroundings. "I'm sure I was going the right way.. che."
Ryoma was stuck at an intersection and wasn't sure whether which way he could go. The more he thought about it, the more confusing it became. He decided to wait it out and see where other people were going but that did no help because they seemed to go in all different directions.
He tried to remember what the girl had told her. She was eating bread as she walked, and she seemed to know where she was going so he had asked her.
"You uh, take a right and then a left, then go straight!" She had said with confidence. But her directions had made no sense because he couldn't make a left, unless he walked through a wall…
On that day, Shusuke Fuji bumped into someone that caused him to drop his tennis balls. She was running fast and Fuji wasn't paying attention to where he was walking because he couldn't see because of the box of tennis balls he was carrying. They collided head on and it sent tennis balls flying all over.
"Ah, I'm so sorry!" She said as she bent over and tried to pick up as many balls as she could.
"It's okay, I wasn't watching where I was going." Fuji apologized too.
She looked at him, and for some reason… he seemed familiar.
He stopped picking up balls when he noticed that she stopped and for him, he realized who it was right away.
"Sayuri?" He muttered a name, wondering if it was really her.
"Shu-kun?" She peered back at him, her eyes getting bigger at this reunion.
"Why are you here?" He smiled gently happy that she still remembered who he was.
"Ah well, it's a long story," She let out an awkward laugh, "Er, sorry Shu-kun but, can we talk later I'm kinda busy right now!" As the last ball dropped into the box, Sayuri stood up and started to run again.
"Kunimitsu-kun, wait!" Sayuri yelled hoping to catch up with him.
On that day, Tezuka Kunimitsu introduced this girl as the vice manager of the tennis club. Tezuka dreaded this day, and wondered how it had come to this. She had caught up to him, and now here he was, making this announcement to all the members. But a promise was a promise and Tezuka wasn't the type of person to go back on his word. He looked behind him to where she was, shivering with excitement. She smiled up at him and Tezuka sighed.
"From now on, she is going to be your new vice manager" Tezuka sighed, keeping his poker face.
Sayuri poked her head from behind Tezuka's and waved at everyone there with a grin.
