Chapter 1


Haruka


What? Why is she here? The girl from my dreams. I stood in disbelief as I didn't dare blink my eyes. My body turned stiff.


She's real?


"Okay, Yokoyama-san, your seat will be beside of Shimazaki-san. Is that okay?"


Our eyes met, and I immediately saw a spark in her eyes. As if she recognized me as well.


"Ah... yes."


I shyly sat there as she came over and took her place beside my desk. She quietly stared at the teacher as he began his lesson.


I was honestly so bored in this class but since she is here, it's hard to be that way. The atmosphere grew incredibly awkward and uncomfortable for me. I wanted to speak to her, but I knew the teacher would scold me.


Once class had ended, I was about to speak when she suddenly stood up and turned to look at me.


"Shimazaki-san, correct?"


"Yes..."


"I would like it if you gave me a tour around the school."


I furrowed my eyebrows in a curious way before nodding my head and standing up from my chair. I lead her out to the hallway and looked around to see which place I should show off first.


As we walked down the hall, I rose my voice.


"So, I heard you transferred from this private college. What's it like?"


"My private school?"


"Yes. Anna was talking about it, she's on the student council. She said that you used to go to this fancy college."


"I wouldn't say it was fancy... but..."


"But?"


"They were strict with me. Always."


They? Who are "they"? Students? One of the teachers?


"They never let me leave. They always had to keep extra eyes on me. They said it was because I'm special but all of that is just..."


She fell silent. I turned to look at her, and she just avoided my gaze.


"So, how did you enroll here?"


"I ran away, and then applied here myself."
