Chapter 2 : Screwed first day..
It's a brand new day. The clock was tickling as the time was 8.15 a.m. It's school time, But Yuji was still snoring on his bed. A bird flew into the room as the windows aren't closed. The bird chirping on Yuji's nose, awaken him from his deep sleep.
" Damn bird, get off from my nose..." he muttered. He must've forgotten something. While lying on his bed, Yuji tried to think about his schedule today. First, he got to get to school early, as it was his first day. Yes, school. " School? " he thought. He looked at his alarm clock. It's 8.20 a.m. " Shimatta!! " he's late for school.
He brushed his teeth in improper way, cause his gum bleeding. " Ouch, " he shrugged. He raced downstair, rushed to the kitchen. He ate his breakfast as fast as he could, and he's off to the school. But he forgot about the boiling water he boiled. It doesn't matter : he thought.
Yuji ran like hell to the school. His house quite near to the school, just a few hundred metres away. He passed some pedestrian while they thought Yuji was very familliar to them, as Kageyama. Finally, he made it. Three minutes early. His first objective of the day was accomplished : go to school as early as he could.
While he walked slowly to his class, he felt very awkward as his schoolmate stared at him and started to gossip around him.
" Hey, isn't he the guy who tried to conquer Japan? "
" He looks like Kageyama, "
" Kageyama Reiji, that bastard? "
He walked faster to his class as the students around him continued their gossip. He arrived in front of his class finally. Class 3 - A. The same class where Shun, Bancho, Megumi and Ruriko is. He took a long breath and exhaled. He opened the door and step inside. His fellow classmate stared at him. " Masaka....am I that famous, " he thought while a sweatdrop formed on his forehead.
" Kageyama? Kageyama-kun desu ka? " Isogai said, Kageyama's ex-follower.
" Kageyama Reiji? " a boy said, and his friends started to gathered around Yuji.
" Iie...chotto matte kudasai..I'm not.." before he could finished his explaination, one of the boy punched his stomach.
" nice try to conquer the world, Kageyama-san, " the boy said as he streched his fingers. Another blow landed on his chest. Yuji coughed. Why he suffered the sins which was committed by his opposite personality? Everyone mistakenly took him as Kageyama Reiji.
" Chigao...I'm not..him....he's my.."
" Brother? Or your long lost cousin? " the boy said as the others dragged him to a corner of the classroom. Few more punches and kicks delivered to Yuji. Shun, Ruriko, Bancho and Megumi entered the class. Megumi was the nearest person to the 'bashing club' among them. " Kageyama ?? " she said in disbelief, so does Shun, Bancho and Ruriko, " KAGEYAMA?? " they said in chorus.
" What happened here? " their class teacher entered the classroom as the students rushed back to their seat. Yuji was lying on the floor, groaned over the bruises he suffered. The class teacher helped him up, brought him to the medicene room, where Miss Ochiai was in charge of.
Few hours later, the class teacher of 3-A introduced Yuji to the students.
" Mitsuoka Yuji desu...yoroshiku onegai-shi masu....itai...." he introduced himself while rubbing his bruise on his face.
" What? He's not Kageyama..?? " the students started their gossip as the teacher shut them up. Suddenly, Shirei explained to the students about Yuji's presence through the speaker attached in every classroom.
" Dear students of Tategami, I would like to explain a very big confusion among you people. There's a new student in our school, he looked like Kageyama Reiji, but he's not. His name is Mitsuoka Yuji from Kanagawa. May this announcement will clear things up.
" Shirei, your annoucement was too late damn it! " Yuji thought while he rubbed his bruise, try to eased the pain.
Lunch break. Confusion and misunderstanding on Yuji is cleared. Everyone changed the way they treated him. Girls started to chased him, like how they did to Kageyama before. Lots of outdoor activity clubs tried to poach him to join their club, as they think he's good as Kageyama. Finally, Yuji have a moment for himself to be alone, sat on his own seat in the class while enjoyed the wind blew towards him softly..
" Mitsuoka, " Shun called him, while his friends brought him their lunch box. " Shirei told us everything about you. We're Gatekeepers. You friends as well as your teammate, " Ruriko said. " Anou ne.." Kaoru stopped as Megumi handed her lunch box to Yuji, and said " Here's your lunchbox. I made it for you on the cooking class. "
" Umm...Domo.." Yuji replied with a smile formed on his face. Then Megumi quickly rushed outside the class, left Yuji without a reason.
" That smile..." Megumi thought.
" What's wrong with her..? " Yuji asked while he opened Megumi's hand made lunch box, tepanyaki.
" Who knows, maybe she still like you, as Kageyama. " Shun said, while he drank his Sukiyaki soup, which he brought from his house made by his mother.
" Speaking of Kageyama..." Yuji said, " Tell me more about him.."
" Well...based on the girls' point of view.." Kaoru said, as she swallowed the chewed sushi, " He's cute, "
" and handsome.." Fei added.
Yuji laughed as sweatdrop formed on his head.." Well, that's refer to me as well...what about from the boys' point of view? " he asked..
" Annoying.." Bancho said while rubbing his chin, think about his own point of view about Kageyama..
"..and loser..." Megane addded as he repositioned his spectacles. Yuji sweated more.
" Well that refer to me too..."
School ended. Gakekeepers Party walked back to their home, except Megumi, who tried to avoided herself from Yuji. Yuji and his new friends had a good chat while watching the sun sets. Suddenly, they heard a loud 'bang' from somewhere near to them. Screams could be heard as they cried for help. Gatekeepers Party was on their way to the explosion. They arrived there in a few minutes
" Sona...." Yuji said while he knelt down as tears started to flowed out from his eyes, like Niagra Fall. His house were burning as fire fighters tried very hard to put out the fire. It happened when he forgot about the boiling water he boiled early this morning..
Poor Yuji, he had nowhere to sleep. At night, he took a stroll around the city. He squated in front of a noodle shop, tried to think about his next move. He could ask for Shirei's help, why he didn't think of it? " Screwed first day..." he muttered.
Yuji watched a man inside the noodle shop ate the noodle with enormous sound. He gulped as he felt very hungry. Yuji took out his money from his coat, and he smiled. His money was enough to order 4 bowls of ramen. That will fill his stomach for a while. He entered the shop and sat on a chair. " Four bowls of extra large ramen please, " he ordered. Wow, four bowls and extra large. Yuji actually used to eat a lot of meals, totally different from Kageyama.
Hai, dozo..., "a girl with spectacles served the food, and stared at Yuji, she know this guy.
" Ja, Itadakimasu.." Yuji ate his meal gredilly, ignored a guy sat beside him who watched him ate that much.
" Yuji-kun.." the girls said, as she suprised over Yuji's presence.
" Kurogane-san! What are you doing here? " Yuji said, as he finished eating all four bowls of ramen he ordered.
" This is my family's shop...didn't you saw the signboard outside? Kurogane's Noodle Shop."
" Wow! You're such a big eater, " a guy sat beside him said as he was amazed on Yuji's appetite.
" That's none of your business. Can I take you noodle? Thanks! " Yuji replied, as he took that man's noodle.
" AHH! THAT'S MEAL, I HAVEN'T TOOK A BITE!! " that man said, in tears.
" URUSAI!! I DIDN'T SEE YOUR NAME ON IT!! " Yuji yelled back at that man as the chewed noodle dropped off from Yuji's mouth and sticked to that man's face. That guy screamed " YUCK! ". Megumi laughed at them, her smile made her more beautiful.
Yuji told everything about what happened to him today, try to make Megumi symphatized on him. " First, I got beaten by those boys..Then chased the girls and next, my house turned into charcoal..." Yuji said, in tears, while Megumi just nodded her head, understood what Yuji told him..
" Ok then...You can stay here with me for a while.."
" Yatta!! " he thought as he grinned widely, " Does your parents fine with it? "
" Don't worry, they moved to a new house at Shinjiku, so I'm in charge of this shop now, "
Few minutes later, Megumi showed Yuji around her house. Her house was pretty big. Megumi let Yuji stay in her brother's room, just next to her room.
" This is my brother's room, you can stay here while he's away for everseas' study. " she said.
" Thanks..."
" With Yuji-kun around, I won't be alone..." Megumi smiled, then she's gone from Yuji's sight as she closed the door. Yuji looked around his room, neat and tidy. Megumi must've clean this room everyday. He took a rest on the bed, which was placed at a corner of the room. Then he remembered something very important... " Her voice...masaka.." Yuji remembered the voice of a girl who called him, her voice was exactly the same with Megumi's.
" That's it then..." he thought..
