Chapter Eight

(Jiro's POV)

           

            While I was roaming the school ground, I heard a loud booming nearby as I sight a car entering the school area. A guy walks out from the car as he walks around the car and open the other door then a familiar girl pops out. Alexis. Hey, when did I call her Alexis? Who is that guy? And what is her relationship with him? My thoughts interfere with a pat on my shoulder by someone behind me, it was Meter-nee-chan.

            "Who are you staring at Jiro?" She asked as she turned her eyes to the direction I was looking at. "Hmm, a good looking guy was with Alexis." I look at her as she gives me a meaningful smile. "What are you thinking about nee-chan?" Her smile grew wider and walks away. I look at the direction of the place of the two but they are gone. I felt some weird feeling when I saw them together. I touched my chest as if I felt something inside want to burst out. This is the first time I felt like this. I think I am losing it, so I ignore it. But I can't clear my head about what Meter-nee-chan said. 'A good looking guy was with Alexis.' And the picture of them together was all in my mind. Thump...thump...thump...thump.

 

(Ritsu's POV)

           

            "Ritsu! Pass the ball!" Said by one of my teammates here in our practice, I pass without a hesitation. I jump high and spike the ball into the other side of the court. "Nice spike!" Scream by the others who are watching the practice. "Superb! You're so good Ritsu!" "Nah, it's nothing, thanks to you." I said plainly, as I drink the bottle of water. "Ok! The practice is done!" The coach said. "Hai!" We said in chorus while packing our things. I went straight to the shower room to get myself refresh and ready for the morning class. After that, I change into my uniform and walk straight to my classroom.

            Zap!

            "Hey, Ritsu you're done practicing?" I went straight to my seat as she turned and asked me. "Yeah, and I'm so tired right now." She chuckled. "I never know you've said that Ritsu." I am not that close to my classmates, it's just that I'm easy to be with and approachable so some of them are not that hostile to ask me. Not long after a guy suddenly appeared in the open door. He was always wearing his black scarf and stuck his headphone on his ears. As he sat down in his seat, he crossed his arms into the desk and bow down his head as if sleeping again in the class. We heard the bell ring signing the start of the class, but Kohei stay still. The teacher pops out in the door. He saw Kohei still in his headphone and instead he went straight in his place.

            "Mr. Mito, how long do you plan in sleeping in my first class in the morning?" He said. But apparently, Kohei doesn't heard him. He pulls out the headphone in Kohei's head and said that line again. "What are you doing?" Kohei asked drastically as he lifts his head and face the teacher angrily. "I'm taking this with me, and don't sleep in my class." Kohei never say a word after that.

 

(Kohei's POV)

           

            That damn teacher got my headphone. That's the very expensive headphone I bought just recently. But that's useless now. After the class, I decided not to attend the next class so I went to our practice room. I get my guitar and start strumming it. Then, suddenly I heard someone running in the corridor, and went to the room.

            Zap!

            "Kohei, we have a problem!" He is one of my band mates. "What is it, Takami?" I asked. "Richito and Tatsui have been in a brawl last night and they've been badly injured!" Shocked was written all over my face. "What? How did this happen?" "A group of gang from other school assaulted them when they're going home. I just got this call just this morning about them."
