Bab 2: Is she pretending?
"Riko, there is only one empty seat near Shuu. Make yourself comfortable there."
The teacher smiles warmly, gesturing to the seat. She smiled back, and the whole class saw flowers lighting up behind her.
It was the one most gradient smile anyone had ever seen.
"Holy moly she's hot" said the boys, hooting. She remained silent and gracefully approached her seat with no other sign of recognising Shuu. As she passed, an all too familiar scent filled his nostrils. Jasmine! It reminded him of the day when he first met her. It was when he was just 6 years old when he met her.
~10 years back~
"Riko! Want to go to the playground?"
"Yes!! Papa, hurry!" He led her out of the house, holding her small hands as she raced towards the swing set. "Papa, lift me please!"
"Sure, sure" He distractingly said as he held his phone in his hands, typing busily away. She was hoisted up and started playing.
"Mummy I want to play on the swing!" A voice split through the air and came upon Riko's ears. A little boy, around her age was standing next to her.
"Wait Shuu, she is still using the swing"
"But I want to play-"
"No Shuu, wait! It's a courtesy!" She shouted at him.
Seeing this, Riko said sweetly" It's okay, I don't feel like playing anymore. You can play."
His Mother smiled and returned to her happy state, before saying "Its really fine. But thank you." Riko nodded in response and turned her eyes on the boy. He looked at her and exclaimed " Thank you! Will you be my friend?"
