Haru-chan's confession

Today was very tiring. I didn't have class for the first period since the first period was Sociology and we are not gonna have any class for Sociology until after the coming term holiday. Our lecturer wants to give us time to revise for other subjects. He's really a nice person. Me and Min Ki went to the library and revised a little for tomorrow's paper which is Geography. We didn't even finish one topic as all we did were laughing and stuffs. It's hard to study with Min Ki = ='


During English class, there were only not more than 10 students. The others were in the hall, doing their Maths paper so our lecturer just told us to do our own work and revision. Thanks to that, I managed to finish one topic on Geography. ONE. Only. Then I had Geography class and the last period was History. I entered the class and found no one. NO ONE TELL ME THAT THE CLASS WAS CANCELLED! So, I just did my revision alone in the air-conditioned class. Until, Suki-chan appeared and we played together. Talking about JUMP and stuffs. Then I was left alone when Suki-chan needed to leave as her father was already waiting.


After Suki-chan left, I went to the waiting area and found Haru-chan was sitting alone there, waiting for someone to pick her up. She seemed so depressed. Well, I understand, she just had her Maths exam on Saturday and today, then tomorrow she's gonna sit for Geography. It's very stressful. So I just sat quietly next to her. Until, she suddenly said something that surprised me. She suddenly asked, "Have you ever have this thought of that someone might like you?" I was like, YES! But I didn't say that. I asked her back instead, "Why? Who!? You think someone likes you!? Tell me who that person is!" She said, not just one but there's a lot. But she doesn't want to tell me who they are because she's afraid if that is just her imagination. Actually I noticed it too. Maybe Haru-chan doesn't realize it but I think she's kinda popular with the boys in school. And I really think that 'person' actually has a feeling for her. Not just 'him' but also this another one 'person'. 


I then also told her that me also have that kind of thought. About Ikki-san. I didn't tell her the real identity of Ikki-san but gave her a useless hint. Hopefully she wouldn't found out. Plus, I'm sure it is just my imagination. There's no way someone like Ikki-san would like me. Hahaha. He's just being nice. To everyone. That's why I want to just forget my feeling towards him. I shouldn't have any kind of romantic feeling for anyone at this time. Not yet. It's enough with just loving and adoring the Japanese idols for now. I'm already satisfied. 


But, seems like it's gonna be really hard. Because today, when Haru-chan went home, I was left alone again. I didn't have anything to do and I still have about an hour before my father came to pick me up. So I went wandered around. Thinking that, Ikki-san might still be at school that time. Alone, I walked along the corridor. There were only few students left in school so it was quite silence and peaceful. I looked at the time, without me realizing it, only 10 minutes left before the clock hit 2 pm. I quickly headed to the waiting area. Afraid if my father was already waiting. 


On my way, something unexpected happened. I'm very sure that I was all alone but then when I accidentally looked to my back, I was surprised. Ikki-san was there. He was there right behind me. And he seemed like he saw me. I was so shocked that I didn't know what to do so I speed up and walked faster. Until I bumped into a friend. I stopped to talk to her for awhile. I heard his footsteps coming closer behind me. My heart went 'doki-doki'! and when he walked passed me so close, I felt like my heart stopped functioning for a second there. He rushed to his car after saying bye to his friends. Although he didn't say hi or bye to me but seeing his smile was already enough.


Ikki-san, he only sees me as a friend. That is a fact that I have to always keep in my mind. So, I've decided to stop thinking nonsense stuffs starting tomorrow. No more thinking about Ikki-san. NO MORE. Gonna live my normal life again. As a girl who is in love with Japanese idols and only focus on two things. FANDOM and STUDY. That's it.
