The Rainy Days

This chapter is when Chisame meets Zazie for the first time, on the first year at Mahora Academy. It has already been two weeks scents the begging for Chisame.

A rainy day falls on Mahora Academy, with nonstop rain. Chisame was running late because she forgot to set her alarm clock. Chisame got of the last train for Mahora and made a dash to her class. When Chisame got to the steps of the main doors she was already out of breath. Chisame took a deep breath and regain her composure, then a girl with dark skin and short white hair, caught her. The girl just stood in the rain without an umbrella, getting shocked by the rain. Chisame watched her for a while, and then the girl finally noticed Chisame looking at her. Chisame felt a little embarrassed for looking at her for so long so; the girl gave Chisame and emotionless expression. Chisame felt embarrassed for staring at her for so long, so she bowed and started to head to class.

'Who was that girl' Chisame thought to herself as she looked back before entering her second class with Takahata-sensei. Chisame sat at her desk opening her small laptop, Takahata made a quite announcement.

Takahata: "Lesion up every one I have a quick announcement to make. We have a transfer student that will be joining us today."

Chisame look up to see what Takahata-sensei was talking about, and then see saw the girl from before.

Takahata: "Her name is Zazie Raiyday, I hope you all be nice and become good with Miss. Rainyday. I guess you can have the seat behind Miss. Tatsumiya-Kun. "

Zazie took a bow and left to go to her seat. Chisame look at her face, and just like before emotionless, not even a miss leading gaze. A chill fell down Chisame's back as Zazie walked past her. At the end of class, with everyone else gone, Chisame gathering up her stuff and started to leave.

But just before she left she heard a window open, even though the rain may have stopped it was still cloudy outside. Chisame saw Zazie looking out the window even though she had the same emotionless face like always Chisame could feel the behind that face she was crying. Zazie turn her head to see that Chisame was looking at her again. Embarrassed Chisame left the room in a hurry. When Chisame got to the stairs her heart was quivering as if she saw a badly hurt animal.

The next day came and it rained just as hard as yesterday. This time Chisame was on time for class. Throughout the day Chisame worked on Chiu's website, but there were times when she would see the reflection of Zazies emotionless face just staring out the window. The thought of her looking at Zazie always puzzled Chisame. When Chisame was alone, she would ask herself 'Why do I keep looking at her. She's none of my business.'

When time passed on for about a month, Zazie stopped coming to school for two day in a row. Chisame would still try to gaze in the direction of Zazie's seat. At the end of class Chisame packed her back and looked towards Zazie's desk and thought to herself 'I wonder if she's sick. N-not that I care or anything." Chisame put her bag over her shoulder and left to do some shopping. In town Chisame came across a fairly large crowd, she went to see what all the commotion was about. When she got through the crowd she saw a small circus doing an act. Then a masked acrobat caught Chisames eye, the acrobat was flying thought the air with ease. Chisame was amazed at how graceful she danced, at the end of the show all of the actors gathered for a bow, all but the masked acrobat.

Chisame looked to see if she could see the other acrobat. But there was no sight of the other acrobat. The crowd then started to spread out. Chisame then saw someone leaving the tent. 'Maybe it's the masked acrobat' Chisame ran up to the person and asked "E-excuse me, would you mind a moment of your time?" the person that turned around was Zazie with a face full of tears. Zazie released herself from Chisame's grip and ran off, leaving Chisame full of thoughts.

What was she doing in the circus? Why did she skip two days of school? And why was she crying?
