PROLOGUE
"Sakura Mikan, huh? A rare piece indeed." His black lips turned upwards and smirked.
OOOOOOO
"I told you that I am NOT going to transfer schools!" screamed the brunette in a high-pitched voice.
"Now, now. Calm down." Narumi put his finger to his lips as soon as he saw Mikan part her lips.
"Your grandpa already agreed and is encouraging you to go too," Narumi spoke in a much hushed tone.
Mikan raised one eyebrow. "So, are you telling me that I should go with someone whom just appeared in front of me, a complete stranger to me, who haven't even told me his name?" Mikan took a glance at the principal, Soniji Wakaruma, who was sitting near the window in the principal's office.
"Narumi. Just call me Narumi-sensei," sighed Narumi.
Soniji yawned and looked out of the window. He hated dealing with Mikan.
Narumi smacked his forehead. How should make this girl agree with transferring schools? They have already been talking endlessly for don't know how long and this girl came up with an excuse for every sentence and reason he said.
Soniji sighed and tapped on his chin, leaning back on his chair. "You heard him, Sakura-san, you are transferring schools, to an elite school which only geniuses can enter," answered Soniji in a bored tone.
"Mr. Principal, are you implying that I am a genius who can excel everything when I only got 278 out of 500 in all subjects? Let me tell you. The only thing I excel in is Gymnastics, alright?" Mikan mouthed the word 'genius' and 'excel' slowly like she was tasting honey. "And you haven't told me which school I am transferring to yet," Mikan added, turning her eyes towards Narumi, who was massaging his eyes near his nose, probably thinking of a way to convince Mikan.
"Gakuen Alice," was his simple reply.
At that, Mikan's eyes widened by a whole centimeter.
"I am going," she replied after a few seconds.
The principal finally faced Mikan and Narumi stared at Mikan in surprise.
"Why a change of mind?" Narumi eyed her suspiciously.
"Because Hotaru is there."
