It was first day of her high school life although she was two weeks late for the first day of high school.
'Wow, this school is much bigger than I thought. There are so many students. Where should I go first? I think I should visit the staff room first. But where is staff room?', while nervously thinking and looking here and there Ran bumped to someone.
"I am so sorry. I wasn't paying attention. Are you alright?", Ran asked to that boy whom she bumped.
"It's ok. I am fine". He was tall and handsome. He had dark brown hair, slightly paled skin and blue eyes.
"I have seen these eyes", she murmured staring into his eyes. Her heart was beating fast.
"Are you alright?" , he asked her. His blue eyes were sparkling.
"I was just thinking… I mean… I am sorry."
"Ahh.. You don't know me?" , His sparkling blue eyes suddenly turned dark. He was angry.
"Sorry. Today is my first day in this high school and I am new in Tokyo. That's why I don't know you. Sorry", she was getting nervous.
"You are from country side, aren't you? I shouldn't expect anything from country bumpkin like you" without hearing her explanation he started walking towards school building.
'But how does he know that I am from countryside? And why was he angry? May be I said something wrong. I will apologies him later', thinking she asked someone about staff room. Then she visited the staff room and gave her details to her homeroom teacher. When school bell rang, her homeroom teacher asked her to follow him to the class room. He told her to wait outside of the classroom.
"Good morning class. Today we have new student in our class. Please come inside Mouri-san."
When Ran entered in the classroom, all the students started talking about her. Boys were talking about how cute she looks and girls were thinking why she was two weeks late.
"Be silent. Please introduce yourself Mouri-san."
"Hello everyone. My name is Mouri Ran. I completed my primary and middle school from countryside. This is my first time in Tokyo. Please take care of me."
" Very good Mouri-san. You are very lucky because I am giving you the most wanted seat of the class. I got many applications from girls for that seat. You can seat beside Kudo Shinichi."
'Kudo Shinichi? I don't know him.' She nervously glanced at whole classroom. There were three seats which weren't occupied. "Sensei, who is Kudo Shinichi. Ahh.. I don't know him."
There was loud gasp in the class. Everyone even her teacher was shockingly looking at her. Whole class was silent. After some minutes class became noisy. 'How can this possible? She doesn't know Kudo-kun. Is she doing this on purpose?' Ran was clueless.
"Kudo-kun, please raise your hand. Mouri-san, you can seat beside him. And Kudo-kun, please show her around in the lunch break."
Ran was shocked when he raised his hand. He was the same boy whom she bumped in the morning.
'Now I am dead sure that I did something wrong' thinking she sat on her seat. She looked at Shinichi but he wasn't paying attention to her.
In lunch break whole class surrounded near her seat. Everyone was asking her the same question- 'You really don't know Kudo-kun?'. "Are you doing this on purpose? Are you aiming for Kudo-kun", one girl asked her.
'Is he that famous', thinking she told them that she really doesn't know him.
"Don't bother her. And don't tell her anything about me. I don't care if this countryside bumpkin doesn't know me. Mouri-san, let me show you around" saying this Shinichi started walking outside. Ran followed him.
"I am sorry. Please tell me something about you Kudo-kun."
"It's ok. You don't have to. And after this don't bother me."
"Is it my fault that I don't know you?"
He ignored her question. "Have you decided which club you want to join. I will show you that club."
"Yes, I want to join Karate club." Somehow Shinichi looked satisfied to her.
Whole day everyone was giving her sympathetic look. After lunch break no one talked about Shinichi. After school her new classmates asked her to hangout with them. They visited ice cream parlor. After some time they went their home. The whole day went wrong for Ran. She didn't expect this.
When she went home her grandpa asked her about her day. She told him normal things that she got new friends and about her class.
"Ojiisan, Do you know Kudo Shinichi?"
"Yes. He is a very famous high school detective of Tokyo. He solved his first case when he was in middle school. Yesterday he solved one murder case. He is brilliant. He is always on the front page of the news paper. He is same age as you. He is in your high school. Did you meet him? Also he… " . Their conversation interrupted by the ring of Ran's cell phone.
"It's otousan's message. He is going to be late today. I think you should sleep now. I want to talk to Sonoko. Good night"
Ran tried to call Sonoko. But her cell phone was switched off. She didn't get any message from her. She wanted to tell Sonoko about her whole day. Her thoughts were revolving around Shinichi.
"So he is a famous detective. That's why he was angry on me. And that's why he came to know that I am from countryside. He is really very good detective. If I had read news paper daily, I would have known about him. I think I should find more about his cases. Then he will forgive me," She fall asleep while thinking him.
This is my first , please tell me if you find any mistakes.
