It's past noon right now. As always a nurse came to take a look at me and examine me in my room.

"The examination is done for now, please call the nurse if you need something, Shiraishi-san." said the nurse.

"Yes, thank you very much."

And then she left.

I grab my blanket and place it over my shoulder then take my sketchbook with pencil hurriedly over to the sofa next to the open window.

'There he is'

After my check up, i always take a look outside to the garden from my window. It's already became my routine. There's a same guy with the same place at the same time. He has a dark brown hair with bangs on the left side. He is quite tall, with a deep dark eyes. He is also a nice and a kind person. Right now, he has his back on me.

I opened my sketchbook and start drawing. While i draw, it makes me think back. i think it's one month ago that i first met him. Well, not exactly met, but saw him over my window as always. He has a bright smile. He help a child who fall over while playing with their friends. He always nice to the nurse and helping them until they remembered him. At first, i think it kind of weird that i saw him almost everyday, but it didn't take long until i know why.

'Ah, is that a bouquet?'

My daydream stopped. Now, he already looked this way. He smiles ever so brightly. It shocked me. I flip the page with a blank one, trying to draw his expression. I think it's time for her to get discharged from the hospital. Yes, his girlfriend.

He give the bouquet over to her. She take it and smile back to him. After that, they say their goodbye and thanks to the doctor and nurses who accompany her outside before they left.

After the doctor and nurse come inside, they were talking for a while before walking home with hand in hand. After a while, not too far from there, i see him kissing her softly then they smile and laugh together. I could only see them walk away from afar.

There's this throbbing feeling in my chest. I know what it means but i don't want to admit it. I thought i was alright. That they are nothing, that he just someone who picqued my interest, that he was just an object for me to draw. I always see them laughing together, talking with smile on his face, his worried face when she first admitted, i already saw them all but i still think i'm okay.

Until i saw that kiss. Until their last interaction. I don't know why i'm feeling this way and yet I can't even cry. I just stood there.

'What is this? what's with this feelings? this feeling is unaceptable, in so many ways'

-Ding Dong Ding Dong-

That's the school bell ringing. It marks the start of the class. The teacher, Saenuma-sensei, come in with attendance book in hand.

"Everyone, please sit down on your chair. We have a new student in our class." said Saenuma-sensei.

"At this time?"

"Who is that, sensei?"

"Is it a handsome boy?" the girls eyes glowing.

"Maybe it's a cute girl?" says the boys full of hope.

"Just calm down you guys, sigh.. You can come in."

With the cue given by the teacher, i encourage myself and come to the front of the class. All the eyes were looking at me. The girls look a bit disappointed while the boys look happy.

"You can start introducing yourself." said the teacher.

"Ehem.. Hello everyone, it's nice to meet you all. My name is Shiraishi Yuki and i'm 16th years old. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu."

After the introduction, i bow for a bit and try to smile. The students clapping and smile back at me. From their reaction, i guess i'm not making any mistake, that's good.

"Okay then, thank you for your introduction, Shiraishi-san. You can have a sit over there."

Saenuma-sensei's finger pointed at the empty seat in the back row that is next to the window. I bowed at him for a bit, then walk my way to the empty seat.

"Then, let's start our homeroom, i will take your attendance right now." said the teacher.

While the attendance running, i start preparing my book and my pencil case. When i put out the pencil and the eraser from the pencil case, the eraser accidentally fall to my right side. I tried to reach it, but then stopped. There's a hand who reached it first. It's from my neighbor desk. I take a look at the face who helped took it for me. I'm shocked.

'No way'

He then tried to hand over the eraser to me. I take it quickly, then bowing my head to him. He looks shocked or confuse for a bit but then he tried to ignore it. After that, i put my notebook in front of my face, trying to covering them. I took a glance of him from the side. I never though that i would meet him again here of all place.

"Kakuchi Sarada."

"Here, Sensei."

"Kagayama Naoto."

"Here." He raises his hand.

'So it's Kagayama-kun'

I took a glance at him again. He still looked the same, just with different vibes. He is now broader and his voice is deeper. He seems more mature. Well, when i think about it again, it's already been three years now since the last time i saw him, so of course there would be difference from before.

Still, what are the odds. It's unbelievable. I never tried to look for him and here i am. Meeting him again after three years.

'Sigh..'

I buried my head under the notebook. I hope he didn't realize that my face already become beet red. I can feel the feelings that have been burried for a long time came back to the surface.

'Kagayama Naoto-kun'

I mumbled that name over and over again like a charm.

Lessons is over. Right now, it's time for lunch. I have to hurry before my stomach start grumbling.

"Ah yes, Shiraishi-san." says Saenuma-sensei to me from the door.

"I forgot that there's something i've got to tell you. Can you meet me in the teacher's lounge after this?"

"Yes of course, sensei."

And then he left.

'Good, now i got another task to do'

When i took my lunch box out from my bag, the girls start approaching me. They surrounded me and bombarding me with a lot of question.

"Where are you come from?"

"Why are you move in now?"

"Where do you live?"

"How is your previous school like?"

They're asking me too many question at once. It's too convusing on which should i answer first. And then, there's one question which sounds so clear.

"Why are you wearing gloves? Aren't you hot?"

Everyone went silent. They start looking at my hand and waiting for my answers. It's like that is the only thing that make them curious. Well, of course they would. It's uncommon for a highschool girl wearing a gloves to school. Even when the school uniform rule is wearing blazer to boot. Just the blazer itself already looked hot. But i can't tell them the reason. It's not something that can be told easily.

I looked for a way to escape. Accidentally, my eyes met his. He just talked with his friends about going to the cafetaria. It seems like he realize that i'm having a hard time so he's helping me.

"Shiraishi, didn't you have to go to the teacher's lounge?" he said while giving me a cue with his finger.

'This is my chance'

"Oh yes of course, i almost forgot. Thanks for reminding me, i've got to go first, i'm sorry."

And then i left them to go to the teacher's lounge with lunch box in hand. Now i can escape, but i don't know what i'm going to do if they're going to ask me again.

At the teacher's lounge, Saenuma-sensei pretty much told me about school stuff and things that i may need to do. After that, he let me leave. The talk didn't take that much time so i still have some time for lunch.

I'm looking for a quiet place to eat. I walked on and on until i arrived at a garden. There's no people there. I think students rarely pass this place. The garden is pretty quiet but it's still very well maintained. The flowers bloom beautifully.

I saw a bench at the end of the garden, facing the flower fields. It looked comfy so i decided to sit and eat my lunch there. After i sit, i start to unpack my lunch box and remove my gloves.

'Yum, looks good'

Not long after a few bites, i heard some noise. I think it came from the flower field in front of me. I put my lunch box on the bench and start approaching the flower field. I take a look but didn't see anything.

"Meooww."

Suddenly, a kitty come out from the flower field. She looks so cute. She's so small, has soft white fur and cute twinkling eyes. She also has black fur on the both of her ear. I tried to put my finger closer to her. It didn't seems like she's scared. I tried to lift her and pull her close, but then suddenly there's a pretty strong wind that ended up blow my hair.
