Note 4: Read and review
Conan had never been more humiliated in his life. Why did it have to be him? It was as if everyone he knew secretly agreed to make his day miserable, even the officials at his school with their 'new wing.' What was the point of that anyway? Everything in their old wing had been just fine. Everything was in reach and there weren't any other grade levels around. It had suited Conan just fine, as well as all of his other classmates. He hadn't heard a single one of them complain about it until the teachers excitedly told them about a newer wing for grade level 2-5 on the last day of school. After that whenever the topic of school came up during the summer all Ayumi, Genta, or Mitsuhiko ever talked about was the new wing.
Conan, despite himself, found himself looking forward to the new wing as well. That changed immediately when he got to school today. He had to admit it was nice as he walked through it, but everything was so tall, all the lockers, water bubblers, even the bulletin boards were out of his reach. He also discovered that his classmates had giant growth spurts as well. Logically it made sense, Amy had grown quite a bit over the summer; Mitch and George were already tall for their age, so they must have had their growth sprout before he meet them. That still didn't change the fact that he was still the same height as before!
Nothing was in his reach, nothing! First he discovered that he could not reach his own locker, so Ayumi very graciously offered to share hers with him. He noticed a couple of kids laughing at him and Ayumi, calling them a 'cute couple' but Conan didn't really care, and Genta sure shut them up quickly. His next problem was the classrooms. His new teacher told the class to sit down at their desks. Most of the class did this with no trouble at all, but Conan yet again had another problem; he couldn't even reach the chair. Eventually he got lucky and landed on his seat by jumping on it, much the amusement of his classmates. Once he was on his chair, he couldn't see over his desk. This was less than thrilling, what was he suppose to learn staring at the inside of his desk?!? Yet again his dilemma amused his class, even Genta was laughing. His teacher was not amused to say the least, she told him to stop kidding around or she would send him to the principals. He tried to convince her that he was not kidding, and eventually had to stand on his desk to prove his point.
At this point he thought that nothing could get worse, but he was wrong. As the bell rang for the bathroom break his teacher called him over to apologize to him about the misunderstanding they had earlier. Desperately needing to use the bathroom, he uttered a half hearted "its nothing" and ran out as fast as he could. The only trouble was that everyone else using it was gone, and he couldn't even open the door! The handle was up way to high for him and the door was heavy, two strikes against him. Dejected, he went down to the café to join his friends. With all of the events of the day, he had completely forgotten his usual need to consume massive amount of water. So when he sat down, he drank a ton of water, a ton. He had drank so much that Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko, who were use to his abnormally high consumption of water and liquids in general, were looking at him as if he had three heads.
When he finally ran out of water, his need to use the bathroom came back with a rush, and the next thing he knew he was running as fast as his little legs could carry him. The problem was there was a line of fourth graders waiting to use it. Now he was starting to panic, and started to run around looking for a bathroom with a handle in his reach, any bathroom. When he had finally succeeded, he ran towards it. He was so focused on using that bathroom; he didn't hear what Mitsuhiko had to say at all.
As Conan ran into the room he discovered it was the girl's room he had ran into. At the moment he could care less, but he made a mental note to be ready for some torture from his classmates. At the time Conan didn't register how much bigger these girls were compared to himself. Since everyone, even his classmates, seemed big to him he assumed they were girls from his grade. Oh, if only he knew how wrong he was. Before he could do anything, one of the girls pushed him out of the room and started screaming.
"THERE'S A BOY IN HERE. TEACHER, THERE'S A BOY IN THE GIRL'S ROOM!!"
This got everyone within earshot staring at Conan, who was now on the floor. It made him very uncomfortable. This caused him to do something someone with a full bladder should never do, he panicked. Before he knew it he lost control, and his bladder let go. It went everywhere, his new pants were ruined and the floor was now damp with a yellow liquid. It was horrible, and he had no control over what was going on, he couldn't stop. To make thing worse, his whole class was there, and they were laughing their heads off at his expense. Conan felt so devastated, so alone. Despite the fact his bladder was now empty; his lack of control was still present. He started the cry uncontrollable. Apparently his face was a dead give away and the teachers took him away into an empty classroom before he started. They tried to comfort him as he cried like he never had before. Every single emotion, every single frustration was let out; the fact that he couldn't tell ran the truth his frustration over his parents never being around, as well as several other things came poring out all at the same time.
At some point he must have passed out, because he woke in the nurse's office with a blanket over him. He discovered, much to his embarrassment, that she had dressed him in new clothes as she sent him on his way home with his friends. On the way home the four walked in complete silence. Apparently while he was out like a light, some assignment where Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko had the come over his house has assigned, or at least that's what they all thought, but what turned out to be the truth was it was a surprise party celebrating a new school year.
While he was at the party he had found out that Genta and Mitsuhiko had found his humiliating day very amusing. Feeling the tears threatening again, he excused himself to his room and started to cry into his pillow. About a half hour later someone came knocking on his door. He didn't answer the door; he didn't want to talk to anyone at the moment. When the person went in his room anyway, much to his annoyance, he turned to tell off the person, but he discovered it was Ran. Before he could do anything, his seven year old body was running towards her wand lunged at her chest and cried into it.
What was wrong with me? This was Ran! My girlfriend! Why can't I control myself?
End of chapter 2.
Note: Not as big of a cliffhanger as last chapter, so I'll be evil another way.
THE GAME!
