~CHAPTER 1~: New school...?

Azayaka woke up with dreamy eyes and so the time. Her eyes widened as she is almost late for her first day of school. Ai is waiting for Azayaka in front of her house for 30 minutes. Now Ai is starting to be really impatient because she is going to be late for school too. And Azayaka will be responsible for everything if their late. Azayaka changed her clothes and ran downstairs, dashing trough the door. She apologize to Ai then Ai quickly grabs her hand then run to their own school.

Ai: I’m sorry but we gotta be fast!!! ><
Azayaka: I KNOW!! I’m sorry if I woke up late!! Let’s hurry!
Ai: OKAY! B-But the responsible will be on you if we’re late!!
Azayaka: Yea, yea. ==;

As they rushed to the school, they made it in time. Both of them ran to the school hall and lined up. But something seems fishy around here…

Azayaka: Psst, Ai!
Ai: Y-Yea..?
Azayaka: Don’t you notice something weird’s going on here..?
Ai: What do you mean?
Azayaka: *facepalm* I mean, don’t you feel that… there’s less girls around here..?
Ai: Hmmm.. Nope! ^^ That’s probably your imaginations~
Azayaka: But---
<<TEACHER>>: I hear talking! Be quiet now!

Both of them kept quiet as the teacher was watching them. All of the students looked bored and was yawning every time as the principle made a speech.

Principle: ----------As you can see.. The total of girls we have here are only 5. And the total of boys we have here are 124. Sorry to disappoint you girls in here but our popularity in this school are boys. But I hope you girls be careful. Anyway…. *continuing speech*
Azayaka: I THOUGHT SO!! Argh! Just WHY the popularity are boys?!
Ai: There’s no telling. ^^;
Azayaka: Well don’t YOU seem relax.. ==”
Ai: Huh? Did you say something?
Azayaka: Ju--- Bu--- Ther--- ARGH NEVERMIND! D:< I said nothing. >_>”
Ai: Huh??? *confused* Uhmm, okay then(?)
Azayaka: *sigh* You’ll never know, Ai.. You’ll never know..
All of the students are buzzing around about how less the popular of the girl in this school. Azayaka noticed some guy talking about something REALLY related about Ai. Azayaka’s ears widened.

Boy A: Hey, did you hear? That Ai is so cute?! Even her personality are just my perfect type!
Boy B: Whoa, dude! Really?! Oh this is gonna be so my chance to flirt her!
Boy A: Heeeyyy, she’s mine! Go get another girl!
Boy B: Whatever dude.
*both of them are watching Ai while drooling*
Azayaka: *death glare at them*
Boy A&B: *noticed Azayaka’s glare and stopped drooling at Ai, sweat dropped* ..
Azayaka: *sigh* ==”
Ai: What’s wrong, Aza-chan?
Azayaka: U-Uhh N-Nothing!! Hahaha~ ^^”
Ai: If there’s any problem just tell me, okay? *looking worried*
Azayaka: Noooo! Don’t worry! I’m fine! ^^; R-Reallyy….
Ai: If you say soo…

As the assembly ended, all of them went back to their classrooms and it seems like fate made Azayaka and Ai in the same class. The homeroom teacher….. Is a female of course! So now Azayaka and Ai doesn’t need to worry about the popularity about guys.
But as soon as the homeroom teacher comes in, “she” was a very cute and hyper teacher and since one boy in the class…

Boy E: Dude, can’t you believe it? He’s actually a guy. But damn he’s too cute to be a guy!
Boy X: REALLY? Aw dammit, I thought it was my chance on asking on a date!
Boy E: Then I might as well call you gay.
Teacher ???: Alright, quiet down guys! From today onwards, I will be your GREAT homeroom teacher~ <3 *winks* My name is RingoTsukimiya! But just call me Ringo-sensei, okay~?
Azayaka: I can’t believe that SHE is a HE! And the cuteness… can already beat us girls.
Ai: Yup… *sigh* I think I’m idolizing him right now~ *eyes shining*
Azayaka: *facepalm* Why Ai…..
Ai: *snaps out* Hm? Did you said something?
Azayaka: *sigh* ….
Ai: ??? *sweat drop*

After their teacher was lecturing them, recess is now on time. All the boys are rushing out as they are like bulldogs having a huge hunger. Gladly, Azyaka and Ai brought their own bento(boxed lunches). So they wouldn’t need to go buy something at the canteen. They walked up to the roof and shocked to see 3 girls chattering while eating their boxed lunches. The 2 girls saw them and waved them to as they’re trying to invite them. Azayaka and Ai were so happy they saw girls unlike boys. They skipped joyfully to them. The two girls that are waving at them sweat dropped.

Azayaka: Hey!! Sooo…. Are we like the only girl in this school…?
Sporty look girl: Hmm? Not sure yet. The principle says that there’re 5 girls. But now this is just 4 of us~
Quiet looking girl: Well… We’ll see about it then…
Ai: Oh, yes… F-Forgive me and Aza-chan’s rudeness..  We forgot to introduce ourselves. ^^; My name is Ai Kawaina.
Azayaka: And my name is Azayaka Hinamori.
Sporty girl: Hm~hm~hm~ Nice names theeeree~ Well my name iiiss~ Mika Ayasaka! Pretty awesome huh? Haha just kidding. XD
Quiet looking girl: *facepalm* Mika… Well, my name Sayuri Kiseki. Mind having lunch with us? *smiles*
Mika: Hey, hey, hey!! How come you’re nice to them but not nice to me??!! *frowns*
Sayuri: IT IS what IT IS.
Ai: *giggles* hahahah ^^”
Azayaka: So that’s why you get along with each other… Wow. Anyways, we would LOVE to have lunch with you guys!
Sayuri: *laughs a bit* Well so do we~
The four of them shared their lunch and they laughed together while sharing some embarrassing stories. After the recess was over, both of them waved a bye and went back to their own classroom. Azayaka was being too protective about Ai and the guys around them. She always expect there would be perverts everywhere. Ai felt annoyed but she smiled a bit. They learnt a lot at school, really. Even though it was a boring lecture from a cute male teacher. They always hang out after school. They went to the mall because Ai was the one who wishes to go there. Azayaka felt disgusted about the girly pinkish things there. Azayaka insisted to bring her to the mall because Ai was so desperate. Well the mall just opened recently this year though.

Azayaka: *sigh* Do we have to go here, really..? ==”
Ai: YUP! I love, love, looovee shopping!!
Azayaka: Suuurreee…. *sighs even deeply*
Ai: Oh look! Isn’t that Mika-san and Sayuri-san?
Azayaka: Huh? Really? Oh, you’re right! Let’s call them! *takes out her handphone*
Ai: (She’s doing it literally…) *sweat drop*
Azayaka: Mehehehe~ C’mon! Let’s hide behind these stationary shelves! *pulls Ai*
Ai: Whoa!! O-Okay!
Azayaka: …. *dials Mika’s number* Boo!

<<At the other side of the stationary shelves>>

Mika: B-Boo…? Aza-chan, what are you actually doing…? ==””
Azayaka: Wahahahah~ I can see youuuu~
Mika: Wh-wha?? What do you mean by you can see me?! ARE YOU A STALKER?! D:<
Azayaka: Hmmm~ Maybe you can say that~
Mika: WHAT?! *ranting on the phone with Azayaka*
Sayuri: Is that her dad or something?  Hmm…. There’s no notebook on this side..? *sigh* I’ll look for it at the other side then. *goes to the other side*
Ai: Ooohh!! Cute notebooks!! *runs to the notebooks section*

Ai and Sayuri bumped into each other then they fell on the ground.

Ai: Owwiiiieee…. EEHH??!! S-Sayuri-san! *stands up quickly and bows a lot of times* Gomenasai!! *repeating*
Sayuri: E-Eh? Y-You don’t need to apologize.. ^^” It’s my fault for not looki--
Azayaka: Alright, alright, Ai. That’s enough. *pushes her away*
Ai: Huh? I thought you’re on the phone with Mika-san.
Mika: So THAT sums it up. ==
Azayaka: Eheheheh~ ^^”
Mika: *sigh*
Sayuri: So you were on the phone… *stands up and chooses a notebook* Mind hanging out with us?
Azayaka: Sorryy!!! But we got go home now!! BYE! *pulls Ai and runs out of the mall
Ai: WHOA!! S-Slow down!!
Mika&Sayuri: *blinks* ..

Both of them ran out of the mall and went straight back their neighborhood. Ai waved a good bye at Azayaka. Both of them went into their house. But, a scream was heard in Ai’s house. Azayaka felt shocked. She ran out and kicked Ai’s door open.

Ai: HELP!!!
???: *chuckles*
