6:00 am, Alan's House

(I woke up the next morning with my alarm ringing aggressively. I immediately turned it off as I rushed down stairs. Gosh.. I really need to replace that....)

(I took a shower, ate my breakfast and soon left. I slowly walked my way to school, it was quite windy out which was kinda of a nice feeling. This time.... I'm sure this time, I can finally ask her out. )

(Mid-year break is finally over and today's the day that I get to finally see her again. I went to school early because she's always early as well. She usually take a walk around campus so finding her is gonna be a problem. After a while, I finally spot he taking a stroll near the school's main entrance.)

7:09 am Main Entrance
-------------------------------------

(As I called out her name, many people turned their attention to me, and soon enough, the area was crowded. I heard murmurs from the other students from left to right and it put me a lot of pressure on me)

"Isn't that Alan from class 2C? "

"Ye, and he called out Akazari? "

"Wait... Is he gonna ask her out? "

"I mean, he is cute but will that be enough? "

"No..... It won't be.. Miss Akazari is known for rejecting a lot of guys who asks her out. "

"Yeah, whether if he's hot or smart, cool or cute, none makes her feel interested. "

"That's why she's given the nickname in school "Atrocious Princess" right? "

"Who came up with that? "

"I don't quite know, students that got rejected by her I suppose"

-A conversation between friends

(I lost my courage as she began walking towards me with a serious look on her face... I was shaking from nervousness, and that's when in fact, I knew that I blew my chance. Nevertheless, I took a deep breath, and handed her the boquet of flowers I brought.)

"A- Akazari, would you.. please go out with me? "
-Alan

She took the bouquet from my hand and gave me a warm smile and said.

"Not interested"
-Akira

"Eh....... "
-Alan

(She dropped the bouquet, stepped on it, and began walking away. I was completely devastated as the other students turned their eyes to me then left. I picked up the boquet I gave her and threw it in the trash bin.... Well.... I guess that's that. )

You're as vicious as ever Aki, you really showed him what true rejection feels"
-Yvette

"That's the 99th rejection this year, another one and you'll get a hundred"
-Zumi said in a calm voice

"Like I said, guys are imbeciles, why would anyone thinks that I'd go out with them"
-Akira
