ch. 1

-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.
