Chapter 3

The unpopular girl was heading to English class with the ever cheerful Hikaru. The boy was chattering away about nonsensical things that I will not describe for I do not wish to bore you, my dear readers, and the ever so shy Tomoko was listening with half an ear and mumbled responses.

By the time they entered the classroom, the narrator was quite annoyed since the two students were aggravatingly slow walkers.

Anyway, Mr. Sunshine introduced himself as he had done so in the previous classes and sat in his assigned seat. Unfortunately, our dear Tomoko and Hikaru sat quite a distance from each other.

So, my dear readers, we shall skip ahead to the penultimate class of the day, science, since, as I previously mentioned, I do not wish to bore you with the details of Tomoko daydreaming in class and Hikaru diligently taking notes. Nor will I bore you with the details of Hikaru's mindless chatter as they walk to their next classes. So, onward I say.


Hikaru's P.O.V

Ugh. This is so boring. When is the theory of evolution ever going to help me in life, and my hand hurts from taking all these notes. At least Kuroki-san sits next to me so I have someone to talk to. Speaking of Kuroki-san…

She's daydreaming. I wonder what she's thinking about.

I should ask her. Wait, should I? I mean, she has no reason to tell me. It's not like we're friends. Are we? She seems kinda cool but I'm not too sure that she likes me. She hasn't really talked to me besides a few words. Perhaps she's just shy. I should ask her if we're friends. I'll do it after class ends, but for now; I should start paying attention to the lesson.


Tomoko's P.O.V

"U-um, Kuroki-san, I was wondering for a while and decided I should ask you..."

OMG! Is he going to ask me out!?

"Are we friends?"

What?

"It's okay to say no. I understand..."

Oh, he must be too shy to ask me out. That makes sense. It must be hard to ask out a hot girl such as myself.

"Y-yes."

"R-really? Thank you, Kuroki-san. Kuroki-san! Where are you going? I don't know where the next class is! Kuroki-san wait up!"

So, Kuroki-san ran in embarrassment while Hikaru is trying to catch up and pissed off the narrator as always. Sigh. I hate my job.
