Chapter 1 : Foreign Student

High school life is not very interesting for me.

But, I have to go to school because I heard something from my classmate,

"The foreign student will come to this class"

Am I interested into it? I guess no

"Well, guys. Sit down"

The teacher comes in, with a girl and she is energetic today.

"Okay, guys. Today I will introduce someone who has moved to this class"

All the students are very enthusiast, especially a person who's sit down in front of me.

"Noel, who's that?"

"I don't wanna know, it isn't my business"

"So cold. C'mon!"

Yeah, like I said before, I wasn't interested, just a little curious.

"Hello, my name is Mio Tanaka. I come from Japan. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu¹"

Well, the class became quiet. Nobody understand what she said, and then

"Kochirakoso²"

Yep, that's what I said to her.

And then, Steve said :

"You said you didn't care about her, how liar!"

"Sorry, just a little habit"

"Guys, don't talk!"

The teacher yelled at us.

"Now, you can have a seat, Tanaka"

She bows to the teacher, and she will sit down next to me?

Yeah, there only has one empty seat.

"Arigatou³"

She bows to me and sit down, what is it on purpose?

"Oke guys, come back to the class, please!"

Oh, I almost forgot. I'm in the classroom.

*Lunch time*

"Noel, where did you learn that?"

"Learn what?"

"The Japanese"

"Oh, I'm just watching some anime"

"You do?"

"Yes"

"I'm doing too, but in English dubbed"

"Oh"

"What do you think? I'm a weirdo?"

"A little bit"

"Because I watched the English dubbed?"

"Nope, since I meet you. You're the weirdest person I've met"

"What a strange"

We laugh at the same time, and I realized something, she's eating alone at her desk. Why?

"Noel!!!"

"Sorry, what did I miss?"

"I'm going to the park, don't you wanna go?"

"No, I-"

"Okay, fine. I will go alone there, bye!"

Nobody want to talk to her, even the girls didn't want to be close to her.

Maybe I will try to talk to her

"Yo, genki desuka?⁴"

She shocked.

"I'm fine, thanks"

She answers it.

"Are you having trouble with the girls?"

"No, nothing. I'm just a little shy with these girls"

"Nande?⁵ You're a beautiful girl, what's the problem?"

She is blushing? I don't know why her face's turning red.

"Because I have a problem when I talk to others"

*Bell ringing*

"I will talk to you next time"

What's in my mind, do I have a crush to her? it's not like me.

But, I think she was a popular girl in her school before.

Until the school study was over, I didn't talk to her anymore.

Because...

I don't know what I feel, it's very difficult to explain.

Mio Tanaka, she's just a shy girl who take a seat next to me.

I'm curious about her? Maybe yes, but....

She is a foreign student and has a beautiful personality.

But, she has a communication issue.

Maybe I can help her.
