THE END

As Time Goes - First day of school

The day has finally come! Plus it’s my first day of my middle school life. Starting today I’ll be a young adult and a freshman. Get it freshman or should I say junior or a newbie! I hate it when anyone calls me that.

Now time to start my story so this is how it goes. So it all started right at home; I, Yuzuko Kanoe getting ready to start off my new day at Sekyou Academy. My elder brother who is three years elder than me and also one of the ten top popular guys in the entire academy, Yoichi Kanoe plus he’s the third among the top ten guys in the entire academy. Oh yeah, along with my twin cousins; the elder one is Kamui Kazama and the younger one is Subaru Kazama. They’re mother; Yuuko Kanoe who is also my mom’s younger sister. Well the sad part is they’re mom died when they were five months old and they’re dad disappeared out of nowhere after they’re mom died. So my mom took them in and raised them.

So off we walked along the roadside and finally we’ve reached in front of the school gate, to the main entrance where every student’s shoe racks are, we walk along the hallway to attend the assembly to welcome all the freshmans, newbies or juniors. Our principle; Junko Enoshima was giving her boring talk on stage to everyone in the entire hall.

After the boring assembly, all of us head back to our classes. As for us freshmans; the seniors from the high school building were giving us a tour around the school plus the seniors were both handsome, I bet they must be one of the ten top popular guys in the entire academy. The school was huge, the school field, the gym, the swimming pool and even the school cafeteria.

After the tour, all of us went straight to class and as for me. My class is right next to the staffs’ room. As for my homeroom teacher, Miyuki Hanazawa; she’s absolutely beautiful with her long wavy hair and her ocean blue eyes and I heard she’s the most popular teacher in the entire academy, I bet the boys in my class must have fall in love with her in the first sight.

And so, they are 40 students in my class, twenty boys and twenty girls. I guess both genders in our class are even. Our teacher arranged our seats according to our names from A to Z. My seat is right at the back and the best part is I’m sitting next to the window where I can watch the scenery and get some fresh air. I bet this will be the best school day ever.

During lunch break, I walked out of class to meet up with my brother and the twins who are at the school cafeteria, while I was walking along the hall way, some guy knocked me down, it turns out that guy is Satoshi Sugiyama plus we knew each other in elementary school and he’s my elder brother’s gang mate along with his best friend Kenichi Oono. Oono moved to Tokyo before spring came. With Oono gone, Sugiyama hasn’t been playing soccer ball with the other boys in my class ever since then.

Sugiyama turned back at me and asked “Kanoe is that you? Are you Yuzuko Kanoe from Hanasaku Elementry School?” Then I said yes. Sugiyama smiled and help me up and said, “I knew it was you when first saw you, Kanoe!”

I smiled and said “You grown a lot, Sugiyama.” Then he asked, “You think so?” and I agreed.

“What class are you in, Sugiyama?” I asked. “Class 1-C, how about you Kanoe?” said Sugiyama and I said, “Class 1-A”. After I told him where my class was, he kept quiet and walked away. I quickly chase after him and shouted, “Wait for me Sugiyama!”

He stopped and turned back at me and shouted, “Hurry up chibi Yuzuko!” I became angry and shouted, “Stop calling me that, Sugiyama!” Then starts laughing and said while running away from the angry old me “Now that’s the chibi Yuzuko that I’ve once know!” So I chased after him until we ran into the cafeteria where my elder brother and the twins were. Everyone was queuing up buying some food while both of us are running, knocking the Q down. Suddenly my elder brother stood up and grabbed both of us and tied us up and asked while giving his creepy look “Who is the one who started all this?” Both of us became freak out and Sugiyama said bravely “It was me senior Yoichi.”

I was shocked after Sugiyama finally said it was him who started all this because Sugiyama is a very liar when we were in elementary school. So my elder brother forgave us for what we did earlier and in the end Sugiyama apologized to me. I smiled and forgave him. Then he pats my head and said, “Kanoe, I guess you’re no longer the chibi Yuzuko that we once knew back at elementary school and I kind of like the new you.” After I heard what he said and I stated blushing; so does Sugiyama.  

“Sugiyama, are you confessing to me?” I asked. Then he’s face completely turns red and said; “There’s no way I would do that in my entire life!” My elder brother and the twins started laughing and so do I

And so, my elder brother untied 

us and we finally had our meals. I brought my favourite meal; Sausage octopus.
