..Tuesday. Wait, it's still only Tuesday?
Looking at the date on the calendar hanging in the hallway, I was left dejected. With everything that happened yesterday, completely leaving me exhausted, I totally thought we'd be further into the week. Thinking to myself 'Ah, I'm tired', I confirmed my current appearance in the mirror. Although I cut the tips of my hair, because I kept the brown hair I dyed a month and a half ago completely alone, the roots were already turning black. I look like a pudding only with brown and not blonde hair.
Honestly I think I might be able to rock this look.
"I look like some kind of rock star."
The positive self inside me had me say that. Not to mention that it looks fairly fashionable even. Or, is this just me telling myself things? Before, I hated my natural color, but now I just don't care anymore. I still need some more energy.. It doesn't help that I wake up at four in the morning every day to work out.. It might finally be catching up to me.. I need more stamina!
I feel like it's been quite some time since I experienced such a relaxing morning. I took a detour to the convenience store, bought some lunch for lunch break, and passed through the school gate. I waved high to some female students I didn't even know and they waved back. I could've sworn a couple were even blushing.
I feel like that one scene from Spider-man three.
The reason I was feeling like this now probably was because for once, nobody bothered with me, calling me over, so I could space out the entire morning. That's right, what I was lacking is time for myself. Everybody's just so clingy.
The hallway was refreshing. Thanks to the cool breeze coming from the hallways, all the sweat vanished from my body. Welcome, comfortable temperature. Goodbye, armpit sweat.
"And hello, comfortable atmosphere."
"...It's morning though?"
"So what we can't be comfortable in the morning.. Oh good morning Aika-san.."
"W-Why are you suddenly calling me like that?"
"I was trying to be careful with my words around you.."
"S-Stop treating me like a crazy person Wataru!!"
After everything that happened yesterday, you still try to act normal? Thinking about it, that's probably about what happened all the time, but aren't you forcing things a bit too much?
"Fine, fine.. Morning, Aika. And, Ashida."
"Morning, Sure is hot today, right. Fan me some fresh air, Sajocchi."
"Fine.. oh queen Ashida I humbly will use my books for your every needs.. including a fan."
"Can you not be gross early in the morning."
Aika clearly had enough of my sarcasm towards Ashida so I stopped. It also could be that she thought I was referring to something perverted?
Ah, that reminds me.
"Ahh, that reminds me. When are we doing it?"
"Eh!? D-Doing what?"
"You wanted me to visit your house and meet your younger sister did you not."
"O-Oh well that's t-true.."
"So what's the plan?"
"Um.."
