'Please. I beg of you...'

Rin woke up with a start.

"..."

She sighed and started changing into her uniform.

Today was the day of the volleyball meeting. '...Should I go?' Rin thought while walking to school.

'It's not like I'm going to join or anything... I'll just visit for a second.' Rin decided.

At school, Miku started to say, "Hey, you guys want to hang out after school today?"

Rin, reading her book, looked up and said hesitantly, "... I have something I need to do today..."

"Oh..." Miku said, "Then what about you Luka?"

"E-eh? Uh... Sorry... I'm busy these days..."

Miku then tried to laugh to cover up her disappointment. Rin felt bad, but she couldn't take back what she said.

After school, Rin walked over to the room where the volleyball meeting was held. Slowly, she reached for the door. But as she was going to open it, it opened by itself.

"Ah." The blond haired girl that looked like Rin was right in front of her.

"Oh hey! I knew you would come!" The girl swung her arm around her shoulder befor Rin could escape. "Come in, come in!"

'...I knew I shouldn't have come.' Rin silently muttered to herself.

Rin sighed. In the end she was forced to join by that girl, Lily.

Despite them looking strikingly similar, their personalities were completely different. Lily was outgoing and social, while Rin was silent and introverted. Complete opposites despite their looks.

'...Just like Len and I... But Lily and I aren't related... Then again...' Rin's thoughts were interrupted as she heard the sound of a similar engine in front of the school.

Instinctively, she ducked down behind a bush.

Then a few minutes later, Len walked out of the building with two guys. One had dark blue hair and the other had long purple hair tied up in a ponytail.

'Haha, so Len is going after the guys this time?' Rin thought. Then after watching them for a while, Rin concluded that they were probably new friends, judging by their reactions to their family's Porsche.

After they all gone out on their separate ways, Rin sighed with relief and walked out of hiding.

Then, she started making her way back home.

She smiled with relief. 'It's a good thing that he made some male friends.'

It was the day after Miku's talk with her brother. After thinking deeply about it for a long time, she finally decided that her brother was right. She should focus on her studies right now.

That's why she decided to wake up extra early to go to the school's library and study a bit.

'Okay, the teacher recommended me this book...' Miku thought as she looked through the bookshelves.

She found the book at the highest shelf. She tried reaching for it, but she was not tall enough.

"Here." A girl's voice came from her right.

Miku turned and saw a beautiful girl with reddish brown hair, and sparkling brown eyes.

"O-Oh... Thank you..." Miku replied taking the stool that the girl was handing her.

The female then smiled and left.

'Wow, there are so many pretty people at the library...' Miku thought, remembering the pretty guy she ran into before.

Miku got up, on the chair, finding that it was slightly unstable. She took the book that she wanted, and then found another book that looked promising.

'Ooh!'

Without thinking, she quickly leaned over to get the book, and found herself slipping off the tilting chair.
