At times during this story, you'll be reading from the point of view of the main character, Kairai. Oh, because of how short these chapter are, I'll be able to put a chapter everyday... Like I said, I have about six chapters already done, heh.


"Miss Shirou, do you mind telling your parents' I'd like to speak to them?" The teacher had asked, well more like ordered with that tone of voice.

"You probably have a better luck than I have on locating and talking to them yourself, sensei- Also, gotta go, detention, remember?" I help up the slip of paper and left.

My parents acted like children, compared to me- Traveling and never really staying home, I was always alone since my siblings had better things to do than to be in that empty house of ours.

I had just passed by the music room when someone had called my name, I would have ignored them but-

"Kairai?"

I turned to see Iruka-sensei and he smiled, I wonder how a man could be this nice and sincere.

"Are you going to stay for band practice?" He asked.

I held up a slip of paper, shrugging, "I would but Mr. Hiiro gave me detention, again." I stated, I really didn't feel up to going to band classes anymore. Seeing that I had basically no one to impress or whatever with my rather drab skills of holding an instrument.

"It would be great for the band if you had practice with us, Ms. Kurenai from your Junior High always praised about you..." He said, he was using the guilt card.

Miss Kurenai was my teacher, she was always kind and she made sure I was diligent and kept up with practice- but it didn't stick once I got into high school.

"I could possibly go tomorrow afternoon, if I don't manage to get detention again..." I mumbled, I hated having to make promises I know I didn't want to make.

"Great, Kairai-san, I'll be seeing you tomorrow then." He went back to the music room and I inwardly cursed myself.
