now back to the story🤧🤧
The clock rings, indicating the start of a new day
Haru slips in his shoes already up and ready.
Souta groans as he gets up and switches off the alarm
Kazuki
Just two more minutes... 😩
Souta
It's 7:45! We're late!
Kazuki
*jumps off the bed*
We're so late?!
Souta
While you're getting up, also get Rei off his bed
Souta
Kazuki stumbles over to Rei's side.
Rei
*groans and pull the blanket over his head*
Souta
*sighs* Rei, get up we do this every morning. it's getting kinda old.
Everyone freezes. Even Rei peeks out from under the blanket. 👀
Souta
*sighs again* Rei seriously. We don't want to seem any more irresponsible than we already are.
Kazuki
*pulls the blanket off Rei* Get. Up.
Rei
*finally sits up, hair a mess, hoodie still clinging onto him like a second skin.*
The three older boys rush around the room, getting ready.
Souta
Sorry we're making you late on your first day.
Kazuki
So much for a good first impression.
Souta
Stop bickering. We need to get going.
They head out of the dorm, stepping into the crisp morning air.
The campus is alive— students bustling around, leaves crunching under hurried footsteps, the distant chime of bicycle bells ringing through the autumn breeze.
Souta
I'd walk you to class, Haru, but I've got Advanced Sculpture. 🎨
Kazuki?
Kazuki
Sorry, I've got sociocultural Theory in Japanese Media.
Rei looks like he's about to object but stays silent.
Kazuki and souta wave and peel off, leaving Rei and Haru standing alone.
Rei
I'll show you the way to your class. *starts walking*
Haru
*falls into step behind him* wait up!
Rei
*slows down— just a little*
The silence between them isn't awkward. It's... Kind of peaceful.
Haru
What class do you have?
Haru
*smiles* psychology? Sounds interesting.
Haru
So what are you aspiring for? Like, career-wise?
Rei
Haven't put much thought into it.
Haru
But you're in your second year...
Rei
*runs a hand through his hair* probably take over the family business.
Haru
Family business? Do you want to?
Rei
Not like i have a choice.
Haru
don't you care about doing something you have passion for?
Rei
*pull out a cigarette, then checks his pocket for a lighter.
He doesn't find one— he sighs and tosses the cigarette into the nearest bin.*
Haru
Smoking isn't good, it's dangerous to the health.
Haru looks up. They were standing right in front of his class.
Haru
thanks for walking me down here
Rei
*walks off, hands in his pockets*
