A New Student

Dan's POV

I was sitting in my drama class, everyone was talking about the spring play, and I was daydreaming of my girlfriend Runo Misaki. The teacher Mr. Tenth had told us that we were getting a new student in our class today. I was hoping and praying that it would be Runo, who lived in Japan and I have not seen her in two years now.

"Your attention please, class." Mr. Tenth said to the class in a loud voice. "It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to the best pupil that I have ever taught in this school, Runo Misaki." He tells us with excitement in his voice and motions for her to enter the room. "You may sit next to Mr. Kuso, Runo." He tells Runo with a smile on his face.

"Thank you. How is your wife doing today, Mr. Tenth?" She asked him while she sat down next to me and he said that she was doing great today. She had impressed with her perfect manners that she did not show around me a lot.

"Hey, Runo. Are you going addition for the play?" I asked her calmly and quietly because she looked a little tired to me. I was thinking that she could get a lead part without even trying very hard. I had seen her perform in a play for the Senior Citizens Home back in Japan one time. I knew that she loved to act in life.

"Yes, I am going to addition for the play. You know that I love to act, Dan." She told me with a smile on her face and she gathered up her stuff because the Head Mistress wanted to see her in her office for a little while. I had decided to try out for the play too. I may not be in Runo's skill level, but I could be a part of the cast to support her though.
