CHAPTER 1
It's now 6am so I have to hurry up or I'll be late for school. This time, I'd be wearing the Shohoku uniform. *sigh* I hope I could find new and nice friends in Shohoku coz this is my first year in high school. Mom: "Reiko, breakfast is ready!" Reiko: "Coming mom!" I went to the dining room as usual, the table is full of food even though there are only 2 of us who'd be eating. And I always eat my food quickly coz there are servants watching us, like right now and I hate it. Dad is the president of our company while mom is the vice-president. But right now my dad is in Sligo for a business meeting. I'm the only child that's why I love being with my friends.
As I'm walking, I saw a bicycle pass by and the rider was---SLEEPING!? Wow! How does he do that?
When I entered the classroom 1-10, I saw the 'sleeping guy' sitting at the back---sleeping again. So---he's my classmate then. I sat at the back, near the door while he's sitting near the window. Then I saw two girls enter the room. The first girl has brown hair with food in one hand and the other girl has black hair and she's so sexy. Girl 1: "Hi! Mind if we sit here?" Reiko: "It's ok." Girl 1:"By the way, I'm Eurika Yanaze." Girl 2: "And I'm Izumi Takayama." Reiko: "I'm Reiko Midori---nice meeting you." Eurika: (to Reiko) "Want some?" I offered her my favorite chocolate lovers delight. Reiko: "No, thanks." Izumi: (to Reiko) "I'm warning you, she EATS A LOT." Eurika: "You don't have to say that, you'll ruin my reputation to our new friend!" Izumi: "The question is---do you have a reputation?" Eurika: "Heh." Reiko: "Do any of you know that guy?" Eurika: "Who?" Izumi: "Who?" Reiko: "Him." They both said in unison and turned their heads to the guy I pointed them to look at. Eurika: (biting on her chocolate) "The one who's sleeping?" Reiko: "Yes.who is he?" Eurika: "I think it's Ru---umm.Ru---something, I can't remember." Izumi: "Rukawa Kaede." Eurika: "Oh yeah, Rukawa Kaede." Izumi: "They say he's a good basketball player coz most of the schools in Kanagawa want him. Know why he chose Shohoku?" Eurika and Reiko: "Why?" Izumi: "Coz it's the nearest from his home." Eurika: "Jeez." Reiko: "Well.he's just being wise." Izumi: "Maybe." Eurika: "By the way, why did you ask?" Reiko: "Uh---nothing. I'm just curious."

The lunch bell rang and we went to the canteen. Eurika joined two other year one girls in a table so Izumi-kun and I just followed her. She introduced us to the 2 girls. The girl with long brown hair is Umi Serizawa while the other one with short yellow hair is Aeka Mizuki; they're from section 9. Reiko: "Eurika, you like eating don't you?" Eurika: "Yes, yes, yes, why?" Reiko: "Here, you can share with me." Eurika: "Wooowww! Rice cakes, sushi and what's this?" Reiko: "Umm.I don't know how it's called but I'm sure it tastes good." Aeka: "Eurika, Eurika? Are you ok?" Umi: "Are you sick or somethin'?" Izumi: "She's alright I assure you." Reiko: "How did you know?" Izumi: "There." I pointed to the direction where Eurika was staring. Izumi: "She saw 'her' Mitsui senpai." Reiko: "Huh?" Umi: "Who is he?" Aeka: "Mitsui Hisashi, a third year." Reiko: "Oh, ok." We finished our lunch and went back to our classrooms. This time I kept staring at Rukawa, I dunno why but maybe coz I want to know him. I want him to consider me as his friend.I want to be his friend.
