I forgot I had this story! It's been almost a year since I updated! Heh, sorry for those who were waiting. Story time!
Some days being at home are worse then being at school. And some days it's not. Today was not one of those days. My math teacher, Mr. Uematsu has always hated me for some reason. I don't understand why. I have hardly ever said more then a couple of words to him, but he still insists on failing me. No matter how hard I try in that subject, I end up failing. But then again, I pretty much fail everything else in life so it really doesn't matter.
Today a new student came. Her name is Kaori Maitsunari and she is in most of my classes and her locker is near mine. She said hi to me once, but hat was pretty much it. She seems nice though. She has big brown eyes and shoulder length platinum blond hair with light pink highlights. Kaori didn't seem to be having a hard time fitting in, even though it was only her first day. A group of three girl already has taken her in as one of them, but I doubt that will last long. Hanna, Nami, and Amiira are the stuck up group of girls at our school. All to the girls fear them and want to be them, and just about all the guys worship them and would do anything to be with them. But Kaori isn't like them I think. She seems to be too nice.
I am in science class now. The teacher is completely insane. So far this year, Mr. Nakamura has set his desk on fire twice, managed to get himself almost fired numerous times, and had the school evacuated last week due to one of his experiments. It keeps the class interesting. But today was much more calm then previous classes. Today we were paired up into groups of two and were to go out and search the school grounds for bugs, different types of dirt and leaves, and any rocks for something he had planned for us.
I had Kaori for a partner.
"Ooh a ladybug!" she said. She sat on her knees on the grass, studying it. "Where are we supposed to put the bugs?"
"The bag."
"But they'll die!"
"Does it really matter?"
"Yes!" Kaori exclaimed. "It would be sad."
"It's just a bug."
"So, it's living. You're just a person. Would it be sad it you died?"
"No."
"I'd be sad," Kaori said as she sat the ladybug on her hand.
"You hardly even know me."
"It's sad when ever anything dies," she answered. "I think I'll just carry her around instead. Now what should we look for?" I told her that I didn't know. "Let's go dig up some dirt! Now where did he say those shovels are?"
By the time of science class was over, I was starting to get use to Kaori. She was a little on the high strong side, but she is the only person that has ever made an effort to talk to me without wanting something in return.
She even fallowed me home after school. I was walking to my house, when suddenly she appeared in front of me. I asked her why was she was fallowing me. "You know what," she said. "I really don't know."
Neither of us said anything else as we carried on our journey. "Why did you say that today? About it wouldn't be sad if you died?"
I shrugged. "Only because it's true I guess. I really don't know why."
"Psh, you're weird."
"You're one to talk."
Kaori smirked. "Do you live around here? I live just up there." She pointed to a big white house with a neatly cut lawn. We passed her house.
"Aren't you going home?" I asked her.
"I feel like walking," Kaori said. She was looking up at the sky, watching two sparrows chase each other. After a moment of silence, she went on talking again. "I moved in with my cousin and his family after my parents died."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"It's ok. We really didn't get along anyways."
"How did they die?" I asked.
Kaori paused for a long time before talking again. "They were killed in a fire. A candle spilt over or something."
"I'm sorry," I repeated.
"It's ok," she said with a sigh. "But I like where I am now. It's not so quiet. And I don't have to go to that stupid private school anymore. The uniforms there were way worse then this. My last ones were this ugly green, but blue is cool." Kaori began to rant on some topic that I didn't quite catch. She was talking a little too fast. Soon she reached my home, and I had to tell her good bye.
"What?" she asked confused. "Oh! I'll see you tomorrow then Mitari." Kaori waved and took off in the direction of her home.
When I got inside, my father was waiting. "Who was that girl you were with?" he asked.
"Kaori Maitsunari, a girl at my school," I answered quickly. I hesitantly asked why he asked.
"Just wondering," was all he said. He had a strange glint in his eyes that made me feel very uncomfortable. "Now go clean up while I'm gone." He grabbed his coat and headed out the door. "And this house better be spotless by the time I get back!"
As the sound of tires screeching and the sound of a car driving away came ad left, I sighed and went to go find where we kept the cleaning materials.
And I'm done. I know no one neither reads this nor reviews it and this chapter sucked, but oh well. I updated for those who reviewed only because I love me fans. Heh I forgot that I wrote this story… That's about it…
With love,
