School was over and Utena was still dreading this day. She had to stop by
the headmistress office before going to basketball practice.
"Why the hell does Ohtori-sama need to see me after school. She already scolded me once today," the pink-haired girl mumbled as she walked to the office.
Utena walks in to the office. "Glad you made it Tenjou," Kanae remarks. "What do you need to talk to me about now Headmistress?" Utena said wryly. "Watch that sharp tongue of yours Tenjou-kun." "Sorry," Utena said breathily and bowed her head.
"Nothing, I just need you to do something for me is all." Utena raised her eyebrows. "Sure, but I hope it doesn't take too long, I have basketball practice in less than an hour."
"I need you to give a new student a tour of the school. I would do it myself but I have a meeting to attend," Kanae pointed out.
"Do this for me Tenjou-kun and neither I nor the other faculty members will hassle you about your 'uniform' again," Kanae smiled at Utena. "Okay, I'll do it then," Utena agreed.
"So where.....," Utena turned to the door as Anshi walked into the office. "Here she is, Himemiya," Kanae replied.
"Sorry for being late Headmistress. I was talking to the music teacher. He wants me to meet with him after the tour to practice with the music club," Anshi explain.
"That's alright Anshi, Tenjou Utena here will be giving you the tour, because I have a meeting to attend," Kanae replied. "I hope you don't mind."
"Not at all," Anshi looked at the pink-haired girl and smiled. "We should get going Himemiya-san," Utena stated walking out the office. "Hai," Anshi bowed at the headmistress and left out the office.
Utena walked down the hall both hands behind her head. "So today's your first day, at Ohtori Prep right?" Anshi just glared at Utena dazedly.
"You going to answer me or what?" Utena stopped suddenly; turned and faced the mesmerized girl. Anshi startled by the girl, broke from her trance. "Yeah, today's my first day, sorry about that."
Utena stood there for a second; her long slender arms pressed nonchalantly behind her head looking into her green eyes unnoticed and she started to flush. Utena quickly turning away as Anshi glanced at her.
"Being the new student can be difficult," Utena remarked. "You speaking with experience?" Anshi noted. "Yup, I was the new student last term and it sucked, as you probably know why." Utena stopped walking and pointed at her pink boy's uniform.
"Yeah, I think I got the picture during Algebra class," Anshi giggled. "So what part of the school you want to see first?" "Whatever you have time to show me," Anshi faced Utena and smiled.
Utena felt uncomfortable as a blush washed over her athletic body. "Ummm, okay," it was all Utena could muster. "What's happening to me," Utena thought as they walked about the school. "I feel so strange around her."
Their tour ended in from of the music room. "Well, I have music practice to attend now. Thanks for the tour Tenjou-san," Anshi smiled as she looked in Utena's cobalt eyes and a small blush graced her cheeks.
"Oh, it was nothing. So what instrument you play?" Utena asked before heading off to basketball practice. "I play the piano."
"That's great, well good luck at practice," Utena bowed. "You too," Anshi said softly.
It was late evening and Anshi was walking home from the music club. The sun was setting and the sky was beautiful hue of orange, blue, and purple.
"Well school wasn't so bad," she thought to herself. Anshi glanced at her wrist watch taking notice of the time. "I wonder if otou-sama is home yet," she whispered.
Anshi continued walking and then she noticed a familiar figure walking in front of her. She walked a bit faster until she could recognize the person.
"Tenjou-san, hi!" Anshi shouted.
Utena snapped her head as if startled. "Oh, Himemiya-san it's just you, sorry I thought you were someone else for a moment," Utena chuckled.
"Sorry to scare you like that," Anshi sounding sympathetic. Anshi looked Utena up and down noticing she still was wearing her sweaty basketball uniform. "You must have had a tough practice?"
"Yeah, coach made us run two laps around the track after our drills," Utena sighed. "So you live close to the school?" Anshi asked. "Yeah, I don't live that far, I walk everyday. How about you?
"I live a few blocks from the school as well; my father drove me to school this morning since it was my first day."
"My aunt drives me sometimes, but usually I just walk since I live so close to the school." "You don't live with your parents?" Anshi asked sparing a glance at the taller girl.
Utena put her hands behind her pink head shyly. "Nope, they were killed in a car accident 8 years ago, and I was the soul survivor."
Anshi looked down at the sidewalk forlornly. "I am sorry." "It's okay, I don't really remember anything about the accident, and to be honest I don't even remember my parents." Utena shrugged.
"Why is that?" Anshi grew more curious. "I don't know the doctor said something about me having chronic amnesia. "I can't even remember anything about my past life." Utena sighed deeply. "I really don't think about misfortunate anymore.
"What about your family?" Utena asked her as they kept walking home. "Well, I live with my father." "My mother died giving birth to me, so I don't remember her and 8 years ago I was in train crash. My only brother died as a result and I survived."
They were both quiet for a moment. "Wow, what tragic lives we lived," Utena murmured looking at the orange night sky dully. They became quiet once more as only footsteps were heard against concrete.
"You know what is weird," Anshi stated breaking the silence. "What is that?" "We were both in terrible accidents eight years prior," Anshi said turning to look at Utena. Utena hoisted a pink eyebrow. "Yeah, your right about that, how odd."
"Well, at lest we have something in common," Utena said with a smile. They looked at each other and chuckled.
