Fuji's POV
Recess
"Fuji, marry me!" "Fuji, be my boyfriend!" "Fuji, I love you!" Those screaming fan girls get on my nerves big time. But being a tensai, I couldn't let them know, right?
"Sorry girls," I brushed them off politely, "maybe next time." More like next century.
I got to the cafeteria as soon as I could and lined up to get my food.
I grabbed my meal and sat with the regulars on our usual spot.
As I was about to take a bite of my burger, Eiji said, out of the blue, "I saw a girl in a wheelchair when I walked pass your class just now, Fuji. Is she handicap or something?"
"Maybe," I simply answered and ate my burger. What was her name again? Kita… Kita Misoka. Yea. She's a bookworm, no doubt. She's a loner, I think. She's got no friends and people keep teasing her about being handicap. She's got legs, so it's possible she's paralyzed.
Suddenly, I remembered the photography book I borrowed from the school library. It was due today. I think I left it in my school bag.
"Sorry guys, gotta go," I stood up and apologized before rushing to my classroom.
I quietly opened the door and went inside. I saw Kita eating her bento, reading another book.
"Hi."
She turned around and stared at me for a second.
Finally she spoke. "Hey."
"Why aren't you eating in the cafeteria? There's a no eating in class policy, you know" I said as I took the book out of my bag.
"For your information: Its kinda hard lining up for food in a wheelchair." She said as she took a bite of her sushi.
Oh yea, I forgot she was in a wheelchair.
"Sorry."
"Never mind..."
As I was about to walk out of the classroom, Kita said, "Photography?"
I turned back and smiled. "Yep. Its due today, Gotta run. See you."
"Bye," Kita waved, smiling.
I rushed to the library and returned the book just in time, seconds before the bell rang.
Whew, lucky me.
