Chapter Four

"That was........nice." Jiro said looking at me. Riku himself looked shocked.

"Rai-chi.....you.....you can play soccer!" He shouted.

"Um...keep it down dude, I never said I couldn't." I said walking towards a bench. "So, coach, am I in." I asked as Jiro looked at me and smirked.

"I guess I have no objection." He said as I smiled.

"Riku, let's go to the arcade. Rio and Juro must be waiting." I said as Riku excused himself and we left.

"That was cool." Riku said smiling. "I never knew you could play." He continued before bumping into someone.

"Hey, you bastard." The guy said as he grabbed Riku by the collar and held him on the air. The guy was a third year student known as The gorrila cause he was huge and all.

"Hey." Riku said struggling to free himself.

I looked at the senior and was wondering why he held Riku.

"What's are you looking at bastard." He said referring to me.

"Hey Gori." I started looking angry.

"Heh! What do you....."

"Hey, you all, dont you have better things to do?" A teacher asked looking at the three of us and the rest of the students gathered.

"Tchh, I'll get you, bastard." He said referring to me before walking back to his class.

"Um... Raichi, thanks but you put yourself in trouble." He said looking concerned.

"Don't worry, I have three friends who have my back." I said smiling before going back to my class.

After meeting with Juro and Rio, we all decide to go to the arcade. On our way, we see Yoshida and her crew following the same path as before.

"Hm, I wonder why they follow thus path every day?" Riku asked looking at them.

"I heard there's an older guy that Yoshida goes to meet so her friends take her there." Juro said.

*Huh?*

"Oh, it's no wonder she isn't interested in the guys in our school." Rio said.

"Shut up!" I began as the three of them looked at me. "Don't go saying things you aren't sure of, Dammit!!" I said angrily making them look shocked.

"What the hell dude?" Riku asked, then I noticed what happened. Yoshida and her friends had stopped to know what was going on.

"Am really sorry guys, I was just so tired after classes and I hate stupid topics so..... I got angry for no reason." I said forcing a smile.

"It's okay, we get you. I was also tired after classes today." Juro said smiling.

We continue walking completely forgetting the girls.

*Jeez, the hell!* I thought.

It was really bothersome, I didn't want to believe what Juro said but every part of my mind gave me reasons to believe them. Of course i would believe, she doesn't show any interest in our school guys.

"Argh!!!" I screamed holding my pillow tight.

"Hey, keep it down!" Someone shouted.

"Oh, am sorry....wait what." I said getting up immediately. "Is that a new neighbor?" I asked myself walking to the porch and saw a girl sitting on a bench in the apartment beside mine.

"Hey." She said looking at me.

She looked really pretty and I couldn't take my eyes off her, she looked my age. "Um....would you keep staring?" She asked as I fidgeted.

"Am sorry, I didn't mean to stare." I said coughing. "Um.. am Raizo Yamaguchi, I'll be tour neighbor nice to meet you." I said with a smile.

"Um...am Chiyo Kobayashi, nice to meet you too." She said looking away.

"Um...okay." I said walking back into my apartment. "Whoa."

The next day, I went to school as usual, I met my friends and we walked to the hallway together. Today's just another normal day.

"We have a transfer student class." the teacher said after being called by the chairman.

*Huh?* I thought looking up. *A transfer student.* Just then, Kobayashi walked into the class.

"Huh?" I asked looking at her.

"She's really cute." most of the guys said looking at her. I was among those staring but for a different reason altogether.

After introducing herself, she walked towards me.

"Hey, Raizo." She called sitting beside me.
