Faded Memories

The Risk Of Curiosity

I get ready for school sleepily as I wear my blue sweater, the colour perfectly matching with my blue hair.

I wonder why the school committee allows us to have dyed hair?
Oh, wait; I'm in an anime series.

I get out of my dorm while pondering and getting lost in my thoughts.

What if.. that dream really meant nothing?

What if I ended up just making a fool out of myself in front of the principle?

I sigh as I try to ignore my worries, hastening my pace to get to school faster.

-----------------

I look at the front gate of the school, imagining all the scenarios that could happen.

'It's all going to go well, Tamura..' I think in my head while heading to the principle's office.

While I walk, something catches my eye.
This wall next to me.. is broken down?

"Damn, what happened here?" I say while inspecting the damaged wall.

It looks like someone got thrown onto this wall.
Weird.

I'll ask the principle about this too. I wonder why they haven't re-renovated it yet.

--------

I knock on the door.
This is it, Tamura. You'll either get some answers, or you're just going to get slapped in the face by dissapointment.

The door opens, and the principle greets me warmly.
"Ah, Yui..T..Tamale! Come in, come in!" he says while leading me to his desk.

"It's Tamura." I say to him as I close the door behind me.

I sit down on the chair, wanting to impulsively run away from here.

"So, what brings you here?" the principle asks while resting his chin on his clasped hands.

I look around the room awkwardly.
Ah, I should ask him about the wall first.

"I was wondering why the wall near your office is damaged?" I say with concern.

"Oh, I just implemented a new method of discipline at this school." the principle chuckles lightly,

"Although I don't remember who the first student to receive that punishment was.." he says while looking down at his desk.

He doesn't remember..? Is the principle going through the same thing as me?!

"Mr. Principle!" I say while standing up abruptly and hitting my palms on the table.

"Y-Yes?!" he says in shock while defensively backing away from me.

"Barack Obama! Did he ever visit this school?" I ask, hoping to get the answer I want.

"Barack Obama, huh?" he replies, looking at me weirdly.

He puts on his reading glasses to check some documents.
"Yui Tomato.." he says angrily while putting away the documents; his face turning red like a plump, ripe tomato.

"GET OUT OF HERE! WHY WOULD BARACK OBAMA GO TO MORIMORI ACADEMY?" he yells while kicking me ruthlessly.

I fling out of the room, hitting a student on the way out.

The door to the Principle's office gets shut aggresively.

'Fuck, who did I hit?' I think while rubbing head that's hurting from the impact of the cement wall.

I look up to the unknown student behind me, hoping they won't get mad at me for accidentally hitting them.

"Hey Tamura! I'm on my way to screw Itome♡" says a blond-haired male while holding packets of condoms in his hand.

Ah, it's just Akemi.
"Sorry for bumping into you." I say while trying to keep my balance.

"It's alright!♡ By the way, the club members said you should try contacting Obama♡" he says while running off.

How does he say ♡ out loud?
Oh well.. should I really contact Barack Obama?

As I try to make my decision, leaning on the destructed wall; trying to not fall over;
I see Yaguchi walking by while holding some books.

Wow, he looks so cute.. I'm going to compliment him!

"Hi!" I wave to him,
"What's up with you today? You look like an ogre!" I laugh while pointing at him.

The orange-brown haired male pouts at me,
"Ugh.." he mutters as he clutches his books closer to his chest, walking away from me.

"Oi, Yaguchi! Where do you think you're going?!" I yell at him with steam coming out my nose.
The whole room starts to become a sauna, everything gets ingulfed by the hot steam.

"Obama, you're the only one I have!" I weep as I go back to my dorm.

I can't continue with the school day anymore.. I'm skipping class!!
