Risako was sitting at her desk in the morning before the first lesson of the day, she was on her phone texting Yurina.

are you on your way to school

yea, but I may be late

ah, did momochi not drop by your house today

oh, she did, she is with me right now, she waited for me to get ready

oh, momochi

Risako then giggled as she put her phone away. she then noticed Maasa come in. "Hey Maasa!" she called out.

"oh hey Rii!" she said, as she walked towards her "how are ya?"

"I'm good!" she said smiling

"Is there anyone else here" Maasa asked as she looked arounds the class.

"Well chinami is there, but she is not in the mood for talking" Risako said pointing to her left

"Not in the mood for talking? Is she hungry or- oh nevermind" Maasa said looking at Chinami just to see she had her head on her desk and was sleeping, with a half eaten chocolate bar in hand. Maasa then burst out laughing.

"Yea,chinami doing this is not really a surprise any more" Risako said with a small smile. "Also today I have that stupid detention" She mentioned

"With Kimura-sensei?" Maasa asked.

"Yea, him, that idiot" Risako said, disgusted.

"Wasn't he the only one who scolded you when you dyed your hair red?" Maasa asked.

"Yea! all the other teachers let it slide because it was the last day of school! but no! he had to go and tell me off and give me 5 detentions!" She then started angrily

"There, there" Maasa said in a soft voice, patting her on the head. At that moment Saki and Miyabi walked in together.

"Hey Rii! hey Maa!" they both said as they saw them. Miyabi walked to them as Saki moved towards Chinami slowly. "whats up?" Miyabi asked, as she placed her bag on her desk.

"Oh nothing much" Risako replied "yurina and momoko will tbe late today though, she texted me"

"Yea, me too" Saki said, poking her head around Chinami's sleeping body.

"Ah, its cold!" Miyabi said, as she wrapped her arms around her.

"Yea, this winter has been particularly cold" Risako said.

"Ah, I sure hope it snows though!" Maasa said with a happy face, looking out the window, behind them, Saki was making silly faces at a sleeping Chinami.

"Yea, me too!" Risako said excitedly "It didn't snow last year at all!"

"Meh" Miyabi said "Snow would just make it colder, but it would look really pretty!" In the back Saki started to poke Chinami.

"yea, it really didn't snow since the last year of middle school!" Maasa said with a suprised face.

"RAMEN!" a loud voice filled the class, getting the attention of a few people around it. Maasa, Risako and Miyabi looked behind them to see a just waking up Chinami and a scared Saki standing there shaking."huh..what happened" Chinami said quietly and slowly before yawning "why you look so scared"

"Chii!, that came out of nowhere!" Saki said, still in shock.

"ah, did I scare you! sorry about that" Chinami said smiling. They then all went to their seats as the teacher came in, 10 minutes later Yurina and Momoko walked in, Yurina was extremely out of breath and red faced while Momoko seemed just fine.

"sorry we're late sensei!" they both said, Yurina taking a deep breath.

"just go sit down" the teacher said, going back to write on the board. when Yurina sat down, still red faced, Saki poked her and whispered

"hey, why are you so worn out for"

"I...had...to...give..her..a..piggyback...because she couldn't...keep...up..." She whispered slowly taking deep breaths. Saki then looked at momoko who slowly smiled at her.

During lunch, Yurina was with Chinami and Risako. "so you gave that girl a piggyback!?" Risako said.

"Yea" Yurina replied laughing.

"you never gave me one back in middle school" Chinami said, giving her a small glare.

"we were late okay!" she said smiling "her little legs couldn't keep up"

"well she knew you were gonna be late, so maybe she planned this by waiting for you!" Risako exclaimed!

"I doubt she did!" yurina replied almost bursting out laughing.

"who knows what goes on in that girls head" Risako said smiling.

Saki and Maasa were walking through the hallway, both of them had just been to the library. "I have to look for that over overdue book" Maasa said, holding up a small list.

"is that from the last year?" Saki asked, as she peered at the list.

"No!" she replied "the I returned the 2 from last year, at the beginning of the year"

"well, you were worse back in middle school" Saki said "you even went to the public library, got out loads of manga, and they all ended up overdue" she then laughed.

"well don't blame me I couldn't read them all in time...maybe I shouldn't of taken so many books in one go" Maasa went on, she then started laughing herself.

"watch out!" someone shouted as they rushed past them, followed by two other people.

"was that Chisato and Mai and Saki?" Maasa asked as she looked behind them where the three of them went off to.

"wonder what they are up too" Saki asked as she too looked behind her. "It seems like they are the only ones who never grew up" she started smiling before saying "well, them and Chinami"

"Chisato did what to Kimura-sensei?" Risako said wide eyed as she was walking home from school with Momoko and Miyabi.

"Well, She basically threw a bucket of ice cold water on him" Miyabi answered.

"Ah! that's why my detention was cancelled!" Risako said happily "Remind me to thank Chisato!"

"Well, knowing him, he will probably just give you another one" Momoko added.

"Hey, speaking of you, why doesn't he give you detentions for the times you fell asleep in class" Risako asked.

"Maybe he just doesn't like you" Miyabi said to risako with a smirk.

"well maybe its because I'm so cute!" she said happily making a gesture of a cat with her hands.

"that's just creepy!" Miyabi said, looking at momoko with a disgusted face.

"well he does seem like a giant pervert" Risako said, also with a disgusted face.

"oh well, I'm going this way" Miyabi said as she pointed to another path to the right "see you guys!"

"bye!" Momoko said.

"see you!" Risako then said.
