Summary: Umi fails her first class.

Chapter 2 – Umi Fails

Author Notes/Disclaimer

I'm not a business major in college so I don't know what their first class might be. I also didn't bother with researching or asking around, cos' I had an immediate idea. ;'D Tehe pero. ;'P

May you enjoy!

"Share with the class something that is the hardest to sell."

Umi mumbles and drops her head onto her desk for the twenty-third time today, if you ask her roommate, and that was counting only from evening.

The freshman in a business course was racking her brains for the one day task her lecturer has laid onto her class for their first day of school. And a one day due date was from his graciousness when he accessed the classroom upon giving the assignment; "You'll need it." He said with a shake of his head.

I can't believe that I of all people is being stumped by a single assignment. On the first day of school!

Umi sighs; for a number of times the gingerhead did not count, but it was plenty enough for the bluenette to furrow her fine brows in irritation.

Hardest to sell... What could it be? What is the right answer?

While the straight As student was pondering, thinking and stressing about her very first class assignment in college for a good six hours now, Honoka was merrily reading a food manga, not even a textbook or a cookbook on her bed in the room, meaning the bottom bed.

Umi turned around in her wooden chair that was hardly comfortable when sat on for such a lengthy period, and so she proceeded to glare at the seemingly carefree gingerhead with her legs kicked up in the air and a relaxed smile playing on her face.

... I'm feeling irritated because of my own inability to finish my assignment. I shouldn't direct unjustified anger at Honoka just because she's slacking. Besides... She's cute when she isn't making so much noise.

The logical girl reasoned and was just beginning to calm her overused brain, but as though a jinx, Honoka broke the silence of the evening with a loud laugh...and Umi snapped.

"Honoka! Can you keep it down?!"

"Eh?!" Honoka exclaimed, surprised that the bluenette was angry out of the blue.

"I can't concentrate with you laughing and making noises." Umi held her glare for a minute but soon looked away when the gingerhead could only stare back with a confused and worried expression.

Ugh...I didn't mean to shout at Honoka. I should apologize-

"Umi-chan, I think you're over thinking things." Honoka puts her manga to the side to give her full attention to the bluenette.

"What?" Now it was Umi who was confused.

Over thinking? No, I really should not have blew my top at Honoka.

"I already know what I'll bring." Honoka continued with a prideful grin.

"What?" Now Umi was feeling even more dumb than usual for repeating the same question twice.

"Your assignment. I know what I'll bring~ hehe~" Honoka clarifies.

Umi shakes her head, she was sceptical, naturally, but she asks anyway. "What...is it that you'll bring?"

Umi was not going to let herself say 'what' three times in a row, so she adjusted her questioning.

Honoka beams, rolls out of bed and walks over to Umi before draping her hands over her girlfriend's shoulder before giving her answer in a low voice.

"The hardest thing to sell is my girlfriend. I mean, she's not even for sale. PRICELESS~" Honoka ended her answer in English making Umi roll her eyes despite the burning blush on her cheeks, and the silly, happy grin on her face.

That's a stupid answer. Definitely a stupid answer! But why is my heart beating faster from Honoka's answer? Ughh!

"What do you think, Umi-chan~? Aren't I smart? Hehe~" Honoka giggled, clueless to what her words and actions was doing to her girlfriend.

There's no way I can answer with such an embarrassing answer. And Honoka is way too close right now!

"You could just go with your love ones, family and friends. I would never sell them." Honoka continues, but Umi wasn't listening, the way Honoka's cheeks pressed close to her own, Umi was too distracted to listen or think.

.

Umi ended up returning to class the next day without completing her assignment as after Honoka gave her answer, Umi wasn't able to think of anything but how sweet her girlfriend is, and how she will sell anything and everything in the world to be with Honoka; needless to say, Umi couldn't find what was the hardest to sell thanks to those train of thoughts.

And without completing the assignment or having anything to show for, Umi was left red with shame when she had to report to the lecturer empty handed. In return, she received a failing grade for her first class in college.
