Is This a College?
Chapter 1: New Arrivals
Life wasn't as predictable as we thought it would be. We never thought highschool would end. Now here I am, standing outside Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology alone and frightened. My parent's car long gone in the distance. I took another breath and continued to walk down the concrete pathway among many other students who I don't recognize.
My name is Ayumu Aikawa, I am at this college to study my future career of becoming a committed programmer. I am currently nineteen years of age and have little to no social life. That ended long after my friend, Tulio Orito, had moved out of the country to Australia. I never knew why, just that it was his parents business.
I continued my way to my prime destination, the dormitories. By the look from the distance they looked small. But I was wrong and off. Very wrong and off indeed. It was large enough to look about three stories high and almost looked like the school itself. It was brick-walled and looked like it was ready to take on a nuke.
I made my way through the dorms looking for my designated room. I had entered the room and to my dismay it was covered in dirt and stains left behind by its previous owner left behind for me to clean up. I gawked at the sight for about a minute and began to start cleaning. I was lucky my parents had gotten me this new equipment in my bag and I wasn't about to let these stains and dirt ruin them within the first week of actually being able to use them. I spent a good hour cleaning before realizing that I have yet to unpack. I started to put my clothes in their places until I noticed a scuffle outside just below my window.
There was a chest-nut haired girl who was putting up a fuss around a small group of guys around her. She was short, light skinned, and she looked extremely pissed. I had no idea why this was but I knew this had to be for a good reason. But by the looks of it, I was dead wrong. At least when it came to the reasoning. She kept yelling and pointing at what looked like an empty can on the ground. At this I decided to open the window and listen in. I had no idea how wrong that was.
"YOU DOLTS DON'T HAVE ANY IDEA HOW THIS COULD SCREW UP ALL NATURAL LAW AND ORDER DO YOU!?" She screamed ferociously at the guys.
They looked pale at the look she was giving them. The voiced added must have had them crapping themselves. I had to strain my ears to hear one of them mumble,"… no ma'am… we really don't understand the fact that makes this a big deal."
My eyes widened at the drama and I continued my eavesdropping," Oh… don't you?" she said with what I assumed to be her devil smirk. "Well then let me fill you in on what is wrong with this situation," she said.
The boys looked petrified and braced themselves for the yelling of a lifetime. Then the most shocking thing happened. "Littering causes many problems to the environment and will even cause a serious accident like tripping and breaking a bone," she said calmly but strictly. My ears felt deceived when heard this. The girl who was glaring daggers not even five seconds ago was now explaining the cause and effects of pollution.
To this I closed my window and continued unpacking thinking nothing more of this strange girl.
It was the next day. I had been sitting on a bench all alone, like usual. Classes would start in a few weeks. I noticed a vending machine nearby and went to get a drink. I was about to put my coin in when I felt a rather heavy shove. I fell to the ground and saw someone standing over me. He looked calm and unworried about the fact that he just assaulted another student. In fact, he looked pretty happy about it. He put his dollar into the machine and got his drink of choice and walked away like nothing happened.
Confused is understating how I felt about this. I just got up put my dollar into the machine got my cherry coke and left for my bench. I sat down and decided not to think of anything more of what just happened. I shrugged and started drinking my soda. I then heard some people nearby make their own comments about it.
"What happened?"
"That dude got pushed down by Yoruno."
"Did he do anything?"
"Nope, just got back up."
I decided enough was enough," I'm not deaf just to let you guys know," I said in my most threatening tone… which wasn't really much.
Nonetheless they all quieted down and backed off. I expected it to end there. I guessed wrong. At the bench across from me was three girls, two with a raven haired color and one with a light tannish color, were still whispering on the subject. Ayumu decided to ignore it and hope they would change their topic soon. Sadly for him this wasn't so. He sat in his spot for a good ten minutes, and they still continued their gossiping. I also felt someone else watching me, and turned my head to the bushed a few yards away and there was that one chest-nut haired girl who I saw yesterday poking her head out of the bush. She quickly retreated back into the bush. I turned back around, baffled beyond belief of my current situation.
To top it all off I saw something that left me speechless. It wasn't really surprising but more… eye-taking. There at the soda machine was a girl with white hair and pale skin was deciding what soda to order. I don't know what made me say these next words but I said them. "I recommend the Cherry Coke," I said abruptly and calmly.
She then looked at me for a moment and then looked back at the machine and, to my astonishment, pushed the Cherry Coke button. She grabbed her soda and sat next to me, to my discomfort. She then took a sip of her soda before pulling out her notepad and writing something down on it. She then showed me what she wrote, 'What is your name?'
It surprised me, of course, that she wouldn't use real words with her voice. I decided not to be rude and replied," I'm Ayumu Aikawa, first year here, and you?"
She wrote something down and showed me,' I am Eucliwood Hellscythe, it is also my first year here.'
It was no longer awkward but actually a lot more… comforting now. I was now getting acquainted with someone I don't know and is kinda cute. I wondered if I should push on the mute part of her, but I decided against being rude. So instead I asked," What are you studying to be?"
She looked at me, her face showing no emotion then scribbled something on her pad,' I want to be an inventor'
That surprised me because she didn't seem the type for that.
We continued talking for about an hour, the others out of site and mind. We eventually said our goodbyes and went our separate ways. I wondered whether or not I would see her often. But feeling more worn out, I headed back to my dorm to set up my computer and browse the internet. But to think," I met her through a soda machine."
