Singing
The sound was faint. For a moment, Satoshi Hiwatari thought that it had just been his imagination. Then it came again. A soft, quiet, angel-like voice. It was singing a bittersweet melody, making it impossible for him not to follow its sound.
"Well, I hope that I don't fall in love with you..."
Originally, he had gone to the bathroom, and was walking back to his class. That's when he heard someone singing. The voice was just so... enchanting that he had to see who it was. As he walked down the hallway, Satoshi could hear the voice slowly growing louder.
"Falling in love just makes me blue..."
He could hear a guitar playing now, and a man's voice mixing with the angel's.
"While the music plays and you display your heart for me to see..."
It was a cheesy love song, he knew that, and he wondered why he was still looking for the singer. He usually didn't like these types of songs.
"I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me..."
Satoshi found himself scrunching up his face at the lyrics. If he didn't like it so much, why was he still walking? He should just go back to his classroom now.
"And I hope that I don't fall in love with you..."
He had found it. Satoshi stood, awestruck, as Risa Harada sang more of her song. She must have been cleaning up from art class. He was puzzled, because he hadn't known that Risa was into art. As she stacked chairs in the empty studio and placed pastels in their places, she would dance. They were small movements, only little twirls and fake steps, but Satoshi was mesmerized.
"Now the room is crowded, people everywhere... and I wonder, should I offer you a chair..."
Risa took an old, dirty rags and a certain type of cleaning spray, and began to wipe down the counters. Even the ones she hadn't been using.
"Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and brake it... before the evening's gone away, I think that we can make it..."
"And I hope that I don't fall in love with you..." As Risa sang the lyrics, Satoshi found himself mouthing them. And, although every bone in his body was telling him to go back to his class, he stayed.
Risa, he decided, was more interesting than Physics.
