The bell sounded, signalling the end of class. Arggghhh, the classes are so boring. I more or less learnt all these topics in my past life, they pose no challenge to me.
"Hey Karma, you are finding these classes boring too, right? You were sleeping in literally every class today. What club did you join after yesterday's club festival?"I turned to ask my table mate, Karma.
"I just walked around, didn't find anything very interesting though. I was looking for a kendo or fighting club but I guess this school's too soft, doesn't seem to have any."He replied.
"I don't know about you, but when I was walking towards the basketball club yesterday I saw a Karate club. You probably just didn't look hard enough."
Hearing that, he suddenly perked up."Dude, you serious. You actually saw a Karate club. Where, where, where, I need to go there right now."
"Bro you really need to chill on the fighting, but if you go to level 3 in the club building you should be able to find it."I told him.
"Alright got it, thanks Kaen, you are a true bro."He said, waving at me while running off.
Finally, got rid of him. Now I can approach Miku in peace. I really want to get to know her. She was sitting in the front of the class with her headphones on, listening to music and looking at her phone.
Hmm, how would I approach her. Going up to her and trying to talk to her is extremely awkward. I need to create some sort of situation where I have a legitimate reason to talk to her.
Suddenly, she stood up and started walking out of the classroom. I followed her at a distance, trying to see where she was heading to. Oh she is heading to the staircases, meaning she is probably going to the vending machines to buy a drink.
She reached the vending machines and I waited a few moments before approaching her. I then pretended to be surprised to see her at the vending machines and said:"Oh we are from the same class aren't we, what was your name again?"
She then took off her headphones and looked at me"You are Nakamura Kaen, I am Miku Nakano. Nice to meet you."
Shit, say something more to continue to conversation man. I don't actually know how the hell to respond to that.
"Well you can call me Kaen. Did you join any club yesterday? It was a pretty big festival am I right?"I asked her.
"If I'm going to call you Kaen, just call me Miku. I did not join any club yesterday. I'm going back to class now."She replied me quickly and started heading back to class.
Someone tell me why she is so introverted and why am I so socially awkward. I couldn't even get a conversation with a girl to last for more than 4 sentences. I really need to practice over the next few years.
Back in class, I sat down at my desk and buried myself into my textbook to hide my misery. I had more or less learnt everything in middle school in my past life except the year 3 curriculum of Japanese middle schools. So I was trying to look like a genius and spent my time in class studying those textbooks.
Suddenly, I saw someone approach me. I looked up and saw Raku, he said:"Hey you are Nakamura Kaen right, you look like one of those smart kids who study way in advance, you even brought the year 3 textbook to school. If there is anything I don't quite understand can I ask you?"
"Sure, you are Raku Ichijo aren't you. Can we just call each other Raku and Kaen, I'm not like the other Japanese. I don't really like to follow the crap where we have to call each other by their first names first." I told him trying to look very serious.
"Woah. Relax, you are just a kid you know. You don't have to try and go against society and all that."Raku replied, looking very intimidated.
Then I broke into a smile, saying"Nah just playing with you man, let's be mates." I then stuck out my fist and he bumped it back.
"YES! I got a new friend in this class. Let me introduce you to my childhood friends, this is Onodera and this is Shu..." He said while pointing to the 2 people standing behind him. Nice, I formed my own clique in my first day, at least I don't have to worry about being lonely anymore.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
