Chapter 1
"Uh! How dare you!" the blonde one exclaimed, "Let's go girls and leave these two losers here to rot," then she faced me and said, "You might be cute, but not that cute." Then, they left.
I could hear whispers as they walked away. But what I could really hear was what the blonde one said, "He really is THAT cute actually. What a waste of handsomeness."
"You know, I think that you are the very first guy who declined their offer to join them," Kaname-chan said.
Another girl came over and said, "Woah! Dude! You rock!"
Then slowly more people gathered towards me and cheered saying that I was the very first guy who, they were interested in, opposed them. This was when I learned more about that "popular" group. First of all, their group was called TheMarionettes and had four members, the blonde was Jessica, the brunette was Leah, the red head was Sasha and lastly, the one with black hair was Hanie.
The bell rang then the students hurried to their classrooms. Kaname-chan didn't seem to care about the bell as she walked at her own desired pace. Still not knowing what dork, nerd and geek means, I walked at a pace which was similar to her.
"Hey Kaname-chan," I started.
"What?" she asked me though sounding so uninterested.
"What do dork, nerd and geek mean?"
"Well, to sum it up in just one word it means loser," she said flatly.
I was surprised. I didn't really think that someone would insult another like that. So, I told her my opinion, "I don't really think that you are a loser Kaname-chan and I think you dress well." She wore a red long-sleeved shirt with a hood, beige kapre pants and black, white and blue colored sneakers. Her brown hair was just left down and it reached half way through her back. I really liked the way it shined through the light.
She just smirked at me and continued walking on till we reached the classroom. It was such a coincidence that we were in the same class along with TheMarionettes.
What was more of a coincidence was the discussion before Kaname-chan and I went inside. They were talking about, well… uhmm… "The Journey to The West" which means that they were talking about Sanzo, Gojyo, Hakkai and me but the teacher said that it was only a myth.
Kaname-chan noticed that I stopped dead just before the door, "Hey, what's wrong with you?" she asked me.
"Oh nothing," was my reply.
I didn't really realize this at first but I actually found her quite pretty, even prettier than TheMarionettes. It was then that I wondered why they didn't ask Kaname-chan to join them. But something was bothering me about Kaname-chan, she seemed quite familiar as if I had seen her somewhere in Tougenkyo.
The two of us went in the classroom and as Kaname took her seat at the far back, guess it was because she went to class later than the others like me. The teacher asked me to introduce myself.
I felt nervous as I faced my classmates. So I started to introduce myself, "Hi I'm Son Goku."
Even when I just stated my name, someone already remarked about it saying, "What kind of parents name their child after a character from a myth?" then he laughed. Sadly, everyone laughed along with him except for Kaname-chan.
The teacher didn't believe that my name was Son Goku too. "Please tell us your real name," she requested.
"Well, that is my name," to avoid more remarks, I made an excuse, "My mom really liked how the Son Goku in the myth acted so she named ME Son Goku," even though I don't really have a mother, this was when I also realized that I can't tell them that I was born from a rock.
They believed me and so they asked me some questions, luckily it wasn't anything relevant to my life in Tougenkyo since they just asked about things like hobbies, interests and relationships.
After that short and insignificant interrogation, the teacher asked me to sit down. There wasn't any seat in the front part so I sat near Kaname-chan though the other girls wanted me to sit with them.
The rest of the morning was really boring. I never knew school would be such torture. The teacher was continuing the discussion about The Journey to the West. The others found it amazing but as the discussion went on, a lot of details were wrong though. I tried to correct her but I didn't know how to tell her what my sources were. So, I just stayed quiet.
Eventually, I became hungry.
