"...Hehehehehehehe..
...Hehehehehehehe...
Hehehehehehehe..."
I am Kimura Maiki.
A first year support student of Savior University.
I don't really have many redeeming qualities like others, except for my undying love for nature.
Trees, crops, plants, flowers, all of them are my precious family.
The color of their leaves, the glimmer of their petals, the smell of the air around them, I find it extremely seductive.
Their presence makes the world colorful, and I believe my purpose is to tend to them and watch them grow as they brighten up the world.
In my eyes, they are the most beautiful things this world has ever given birth to.
"Hehehehehehehe..."
I was caressing my precious little children on the fertile soils at the side of our Academy building.
My precious colorful seedlings have been growing beautiful as of late, and I came here to tend to them.
'Ohhh, silly me! I forgot about asking for the watering can. I gotta go fetch it from the storage shed!', I thought.
I ran back near the side of the academy, planning to get to the shed behind the school.
I was quite excited, and planned to rush there.
Usually, the back of the school is empty before classes start, so I carelessly ran without worrying about bumping into someone.
I kept running, and then turned towards the corner at the back of the academy, when suddenly...
*PUG!*
"AUGH!"
I accidentally bumped into someone.
"WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING, FUCKING BITCH!", the female voice shouted at me.
I fell down with my buttocks flat on the floor and my hands behind me, slightly spreading my legs.
Me, being the socially....inept person that I was, felt quite intimidated hearing their voices, and planned to apologize to them, with an apologetic face.
In front of me were three girls. All of them were not wearing their blazers, had the top buttons of their dress shirt unbuttoned revealing their cleavages, had make-up on, and held one lit cigarette each on their right hands.
They looked like models with their good looks, fine make-up, long legs and short skirts.
The one I bumped into, had long brown curled hair, with the middle part tied and pulled to the top.
She had the same position as me and was rubbing her head with her left hand as she kept the cigarette she had on her right hand.
The two girls behind her, had black hair and blonde dyed hair.
The one with the short black hair had a cardigan she wasn't wearing, and just wrapped on her waist.
The blond dyed haired girl, had her hair tied up to a twintail and was still smoking when the brown haired girl and I bumped into each other.
"...Ummm...s-sorry-", I tried apologizing.
"WHAT'S GOING ON OVER THERE!", the voice of my psychology teacher, Strategiser-sensei was heard.
"Goddammit, Meinu! The teacher heard your screaming! Let's run!", the short black haired girl screamed out as she, and the blond haired girl started running away.
The brown haired girl immediately stood up on her feet and ran as well, but before she could run far away, she showed an angry glimpse at me and then continued her pace.
I sat there, feeling a little uneasy, but then, I started to get up.
"I can smell that! Who's smoking-"
Strategiser-sensei quickly turned towards the corner and immediately saw me brushing the dirt off of my skirt.
She was slightly confused with seeing me here, as I turned towards her.
"Kimura-san? Were you smoking around here?", she asked me with a confused expression.
"N-no! It's not me! I...uh...", I tried answering her as calm as possible but I still couldn't help but be shaky.
"Don't worry. Calm down.", she told me as she touched my shoulders trying to relieve me of tension.
"Tell me... who was smoking here earlier? I believe you aren't involved with them, but I still need you here so I could provide proper punishment to whoever it was that littered those cigarette buds."
I slightly turned my head to the ground, and cigarette buds littered all over the floor.
"You believe me?", I ask her.
"I've been your teacher for months and I know how much you love nature. Someone like you, Kimura-san, would probably never do something that may possibly bring disaster towards the environment around our Academy. Knowing you, you'd probably be overprotective towards the trees that surround here. Even our school's gardener respects how you tend to the school's garden with so much care. So I don't think you're the one who did this.", she explained, still trying to calm me down.
"Strategiser-sensei...", I call her name while feeling a little relieved.
"So can you please tell me... who did this?"
"... I... I don't know their names...but..."
Strategiser-sensei and I talked about the identities of the girls who were smoking here earlier for a couple of minutes then.
______________________________________
"Mmmm... Maikichi... You ok? Do you want me to give you a loving kiss?", Chiyo asked me while hugging my head from behind and groping my chest.
"Chi-Chiyo! Get your hands off my chest!", I ask her, with a shaky tone.
"Boo! I won't let go until you tell me what happened earlier. I saw you having a fun conversation with Strategiser-sensei before heading to class.", she told me with a pouting expression.
It was lunch at that time, and I didn't really have much appetite to eat lunch, so I just stayed in class with Chiyo.
In there, was my blond short male classmate playing with his PSP, my three female classmates who were always sitting with each other and us two.
"S-sorry... I can't tell you... It's...nothing important anyways..."
"Come on, Maikichi! Did something happen? Did someone hurt you? If someone did then-"
"Keima."
Suddenly, before Chiyo could finish her sentence, one of my classmates, the black haired scary looking guy, came in looking a bit angry.
For some reason as well, he wasn't wearing his blazer and was just carrying it around his shoulder.
"Can you help me fix something?", he asked as he walked towards the blond haired short guy.
I felt a little curious with their conversation, since for some reason, it seemed like something bad happened.
"What is it?", asked the blond short guy.
"This."
The black haired guy pulled out an expensive looking girly smartphone that was seemingly broken.
"Maikichi?", Chiyo called my name.
'His dress shirt'
From my viewpoint, I noticed something unusual.
His blazer he had on his shoulder, seemed to have dirt on it, and at the back of his dress shirt, was what seemed to be a small leaf.
It was stuck there, but it fell down immediately when I saw it.
"What happened? Were you too embarassed that we might figure out your tastes that you broke it to destroy evidence but now you're regretting it?"
"Cut it with the sass, just help me out, will you?"
"Sure, but this would be an expensive loan."
"Yeah, yeah."
He held his hand on it and used his ability to reconnect and fix the parts slowly.
"Maikichi? Maikichi?", Chiyo called me again.
"Uhhh...sorry... W-what is it?", I shook myself off and got back to reality.
"Boobs!", she said as she groped me again.
"Kyaah!"
______________________________________
'I bought some more dandelion seeds. Now I'll be tending to even more of my children. Hehehehehehehehehe.', I thought as I walked towards the garden at the side of the academy building.
When I first came in this academy, I quickly searched the place for the beautiful and plentiful plantlife that they had growing here.
When I found out that they had a huge garden, I was so pleased and excitedly asked the gardeners if I could tend to it.
The school tends to each students' circumstances and since being with nature would greatly benefit my relationship with my green children, they quickly allowed my hand in growing the seedlings.
It's been a few months now, I've been planting and growing flowers as beautiful as they can be and made sure to give them enough nutrients and love just like how a mother would be with it's child.
Just like that, I pleasantly walked towards the side of the academy, hoping to care for the flowers that were growing quite beautifully.
When I noticed...
"WHAT!?"
I was rearing with anger, my eyes were opened wide as I scan the scene on my garden.
"M-my children!"
I quickly ran towards the garden.
The flowers... About a quarter of them...
...were stomped on and were torn of the ground.
'W-what kind of monster did this!?', I deliberated with anger.
'Tch! I'm gonna-'
*step step step*
Suddenly, as I was clouded with anger, I heard some slow footsteps coming my way.
'Someone? Is it the perpetrator?'
I immediately sneaked away and hid behind the corner.
*step*
Finally, the steps ended and the person located there seemed to have come to a halt.
'Who's the scum who did that to my-', as I peeked in, I finally realized who it was.
I turned back to stand still again, trying to hide away from the person's sights.
I clench my fist and my teeth as I show a despising look.
'Die.', I thought.
______________________________________
"Haaaah.", our black haired delinquent classmate sighed as he came in our classroom.
Unlike usual, he wasn't with the pink haired pale girl or the black haired dark skinned girl.
"Yo, Akira! Something up? Why are you sighing first thing in the morning?", our dark skinned dreadlocked haired classmate who was stood chatting with our deadpan light blue haired classmate, seeing the black haired delinquent came in, went to speak with him.
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
"Something came up. Just bumped into some shitty people.", he replied.
"It's rare for mister tough guy to come here this early, got something you wanna talk about?"
"Uh... I don't really-"
*creak*
I suddenly stand up from my seat.
Chiyo usually comes a bit later than usual, being the easy come easy go person that she is.
I usually come early to tend to the garden, so I was already in school back then.
The black haired delinquent looked in my direction with, for some reason, a worried look.
I was walking towards the entrance, where the black haired delinquent was standing in front of.
He kept his eyes on me as I walked passed him.
"Disgusting.", I say as I walked past.
His eyes slightly widen, hearing me say this.
"Akira? Hey. Got a crush on Kimura-san or something?", Kami called on him.
"N-no..."
I walked out to the hallway as the two continued speaking to each other.
______________________________________
"... Uhhh...", the black haired punk voiced as he stared at a piece of paper.
On his table, was a paper envelope.
"Hey, what's that?", asked the blond short guy.
It was early morning that time, and most of the students are already in class.
"Hmmm...", the pink haired girl voiced as she walked towards the black haired punk's seat to look at the paper.
The dark skinned girl seemed to have stood from her seat and was planning to take a peek at the paper.
*crumple*
He quickly crumpled the paper with an awkward look.
"I-it's nothing...", said the black haired scum.
"Is that a love letter? Hmmm..?", the brown dreadlocked haired classmate teased as he walked towards the black haired scum's seat.
"N-no... Uhhh..."
"""A love letter?""", the pink haired pale girl, the dark skinned girl, and the short orange sidetail haired girl suddenly lash out.
"It's not a love letter, you retards.", the scum said without remorse.
The pink haired girl and the dark skinned girl stood by his left and right side, seemingly showing an intimidating aura.
"W-what is it?", the scum asked.
The orange sidetailed girl seemed to show a worrying, pouting face as she walked close to his seat as well.
"If it's not a love letter, why are you trying to hide it?", the pink haired girl asked with a dreaded tone.
"Maybe you should stop hiding it between your hands, Akira.", the dark skinned girl asked with a dreaded tone as well.
"Akira-sama!!", the orange sidetailed girl called his name with a displeased tone.
"Y-you guys..."
______________________________________
The scum of the earth was showing an awkward afraid look as he laid his head down while sat on his seat.
The pink haired girl, the blond short guy, the dark skinned girl, the short orange sidetailed girl and the dark skinned dreadlocked guy were all showing the same faces as they stood near the scum.
The pink haired girl was holding a wrinkled piece of paper and everyone seemed to have been taking a peek at it.
The letter stated the following:
DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE> They all kept quiet as they stared at the piece of paper. "A-Akira-sama... Did you do something?" "Dude, uhhh...someone's got some beef on you...I guess..." "A-Akira... Did something happen? Ummm..I'll protect you if you need me..." "I can also protect you! I-if you need my help, I..." "You really done it now, you moron." They had some varying reactions about the letter, but most of them were slightly disturbed. '... Scum like him deserve to die!', I thought with a detesting look. ['Who's the scum who did that to my-', as I peeked in, I finally realized who it was. It was my black haired classmate. The one with the sharp glare in his eyes. His steps earlier were slow and few, meaning he wasn't far off from the garden. He's the scum who hurt my children!] ______________________________________ "Uhhh...", the scum voiced with an awkward tone as he opened his bag. "Is there something wrong?", asked the blond short guy, who was playing with his PSP and didn't even turn to the scum. We were seated in our seats the next day, when he opened his bag to see... That it was filled to the brim with leaves. "Grrrrrrr...", I hissed as I glared at his direction. He seemed to have noticed me from afar, but made a guilty expression as if admitting his sins. 'I'll never forgive scum like you!' ______________________________________ *tug* "WAAH!", the scum suddenly shrieked as he slipped. He was walking his way towards the school building's entrance when he suddenly lost balance. *BAM* He fell down to the ground face first as he turned to see what tripped him. It was a small branch that came out from nowhere. "Ugh...", he voiced as he stood up and fixed himself. "... Haaah.", he sighed as he walked forward again. "WAAH-", he shrieked as he slipped again. The other students seem to be avoiding him and felt awkward as they saw his weird shenanigans. 'That's what murderers get!', I begrudgingly thought as I was squatting on the ground with my legs closed and my palms on the soil. ______________________________________ "They've got the best ramen, I tell you.", the dark skin, dreadlock haired guy told the scum. "I've had better.", he replied. They were sat face to face in the cafeteria, with the light blue haired guy sitting next to the dreadlocked guy. Next to them was a thin short separator wall used to separate the table from other tables. Plates of curry were placed before them as they chatted. "Yeah, but I told you-" *plop* Suddenly, the dreadlock haired guy's eyes widen as he noticed something as he stared at the scum's plate. "What? What's up?", the scum asked. "...D-dude... Your plate..." The scum turned his head towards his plate, feeling a little confused when he suddenly realized what happened. "...Goddammit.", he awkwardly whined as he noticed another added to his meal now. There was a semi-large branch of a. tree placed on top of it. He lowered his head down and looked sort of guilty as he regretted his actions. I immediately stood up from the table from the other side and walked away. The dreadlock haired guy noticed me and showed a wry smile as he saw me walked out. ______________________________________ For three whole days, I continued to play childish pranks on the scum, just like how Chiyo would prank someone. I made him trip everywhere, filled his stuff with leaves, messed with his meals, sometimes spawning tree branches in his clothes, and kept aggravating him. He seemed to have noticed it, but he didn't seem to fight back, so I continued my pursuit. Knowing that he hurt my children, I could never let him walk out in the light without him experiencing the pain that he caused towards them. ______________________________________ "Kimura-san, did something happen?" It was lunch at that time, when the pink haired girl approached me. "What do you mean?", I ask her, with a serious tone. "Ummm... Well, I've noticed you've been lurking around Akira and messing with him. Of course, it's not my right to step in whatever problem you two have, but I still want to know... Did Akira do something to you that made you this angry at him?", she asked me. Chiyo was trying to listen in our conversation as she chows down on her bento. "...", I stayed silent. I wanted to answer her, but I felt as if it would've been futile. I don't have the full picture of what she thinks about that guy, but I know that she always sticks on his back. If I told someone like her what horrible thing he did, she probably won't- "Akira's really kind, you know?", she told me, snapping me back to reality. The short blond haired guy sitting in front of the scum's seat, who was playing with his PSP, seemed to have stopped for a second hearing this, then continued. "If he did something wrong, it might've been an accident...or you know... You might have just gotten situation all wrong.", she continued. "...BUT-! I saw him-", I suddenly blurt out. "Are you really sure about that?", she asked. "Maybe...you should try checking things out again.." ______________________________________ "Haaaah.", I sighed. My hands were covered in dirt as I laid a new flower down the soil in the garden. 'These are my prized possessions. I won't let anyone ever hurt you again.', I thought as I stood up. ["Maybe...you should try checking things out again.."] '... I...' I don't really know what to do, except wait until someone tries tampering with my flowers again. ______________________________________ It was early morning when I walked towards school. I was planning to head straight to my garden to check if someone tries messing it again. 'I'll definitely catch whoever tries to mess with my children!', I thought as I walked in. As I closed in the corner of the school, I saw someone sneakily hiding, with his back on the wall. 'That's-!' The scum was there! 'I knew it!' All along, it was him! [His blazer he had on his shoulder, seemed to have dirt on it, and at the back of his dress shirt, was what seemed to be a small leaf. It was stuck there, but it fell down immediately when I saw it.] 'That was definite proof! I won't let him get away this time!' With a face full of hatred, I run towards him. From afar, I saw him peaking towards the corner of the school, at my garden. His eyes widen as he noticed something, and then he quickly ran to the corner. 'He's doing it! I need to go before he-' "Yo!" From the corner, I heard his voice calling to someone. 'What is-' As I head towards the corner, I hid behind the wall with it on my back and stared at the scene in my garden. Familiar faces suddenly show from my line of sight. It was the three girls I met a few days back. In each of their hands were one lit cigarette. They must have been smoking near the back of the school. Their feet were stepping on my children, showing that they have been stomping on it before the scum came. "Oh, you're a student? I thought you were like, a teacher. You had us scared there for a moment.", the brown curled hair girl with the middle tied to the top, the one who I bumped with, told him with a relieved smile. '...What? ...but I never told Strategiser-sensei their names! ... Why are they...?' "This is your phone, right? I accidentally stepped on it when you guys came running a few days ago.", the scum said as he pulled a pink cased phone and pointed towards them. 'He's with them...? That little-' "Oh! That's totes mine! Thanks! I thought I completely lost it!", she told him with a flirtatious tone. "Sure, but..." He put the phone back his pocket as if denying her. "What do you want? Want a kiss or something? Hmm... You know what? You're actually kind of cute. If you want, we can go hang out if-" "Can you guys get your fucking feet off the flowers for now?", he ordered them with an angry tone. My eyes slightly widen as I watched the scene. "Hmmm... Can't you see we have some business with these flowers? Come on, if you don't act like a good boy, you won't be-" "Shut the fuck up.", he interrupted her with an angry tone. "Something's got big boy all riled up, huh? Don't tell me that stuck-up bitch's your girlfriend or something-" "So what if she was?" 'HUH!?', I blush as I heard his statement. "Woah, you have the weirdest tastes. You'd prefer that ugly bitch than us?" "She's way cuter than any of you fake skanks." 'W-w-what...?' "Y-you!" "Meinu, this guy's really pissing me off. How about we just deal with him the hard way?" "Well." The brown haired girl suddenly surrounded her arm with dark violet glowing shrouds of dust. The other two girls had liquid of the color orange and brown flowing through their limbs. "I actually thought you were hot, but then you just had to open your big mouth. You would've had a shot with me." "I might be into hot chicks, but I'm just not that into girls with shitty attitudes, thank you very much.", my black haired classmate said as he spawned a shield on his right forearm. 'Th-this is bad! I have to help him-', I was planning to run into the area to fight with him when suddenly- "Oh, so you were the ones smoking here?" Suddenly, from behind the school, came Strategiser-sensei, who was wearing a black office skirt with her arms crossed. "S-STRATEGISER-SENSEI...?", the brown haired girl shockingly screamed as she saw her. Used cigarettes were loitered on the trashed garden, evidently showing that they have been breaking the rules. "Sixth year support students smoking, trashing school property, and even threatening a freshman. Wouldn't this immediately lead to your expulsions? Especially you, Nakano Meinu-san?", asked Strategiser-sensei. The two girls seemed to be showing faces of remorse and stopped using their abilities, except the brown haired girl. "Tch-! If we're gonna be expelled anyways, we won't be going down without a fight!", she announced as she ran towards Strategiser-sensei. *BAAAAAAMMMM* Just before she could reach her... A giant horizontally diagonal tree was spawned from the corner and hit her like a fist. *BAAM*, she smashed at the wall and fell down unconscious. The other two were shocked as they saw this and fell down to sit on the ground, while my black haired classmate turned towards the corner where I was hiding and where the tree came from. Strategiser-sensei kept her cool and walked towards the two girls. "Do you want to suffer more, or do you want to just go with us quietly?" The two girls lowered their heads as to surrender as Strategiser-sensei kept her eyes on them. Meanwhile, my black haired classmate came to the corner I was at to check if I was there. "Hey, green gir-", he tried calling me from there, but noticed I wasn't there anymore. "Haaah.", he sighed as he walked back to Strategiser-sensei. ______________________________________ It was the next day when my black haired classmate came in class with the pink haired girl and the dark skinned girl. "Yo, morning!", my black haired classmate greeted the light blue haired classmate. "Morning.", he replied to him. "G'morning, sir!", the dreadlock haired classmate greeted my black haired classmate. "Yeah, you too." He walked to his seat, as well as the two girls and immediately sat down. "Morning, mongrel." "Yeah, morning to you too." He then bent down his seated body to put his bag on the side of his seat. Suddenly, as he was bent down, he noticed something. "Huh?" From below his seat, he took another letter. Some of our classmates, who knew the contents of the last letter, showed an awkward expression. "Is that another death threat? Might as well write your last will before it all ends for an idiot like you.", the blond short haired guy told him. "Yeah, yeah. Just cut with the jokes.", he replied to him as he opened the letter and took out the paper in it. Unlike the last letter, where the piece of paper inside was a simple piece of paper, the paper inside was pink and had a nice scent. "This...is different.", he said as to say his first impression of the letter. For some reason, the three girls behind him tensed up, seeing just the color of the paper. He read it for a moment and smiled. He pulled out his notebook and wrote something on paper, and tore it, holding the torn piece in his left hand. He then bent down to look at the bottom of his table again, and grabbed something. The girls behind him were focused on what he was doing for some reason. From below the table, he grabbed a pretty rose. Some of our classmates seemed to be slightly in shock as they see him hold the rose. 'What? Wait... W-Why is he...!?' He then started walking towards my seat. 'I-is he still angry... I know it was my fault for getting the wrong idea but...' He stood still once he reached the front of my seat and stared directly to my eyes. 'I-is he gonna hit me? B-but... I... It was my fault...b-but...' He suddenly pulled his hand up. Fearing that he'd hit me, I closed my eyes, preparing to take the hit. *slip* For some reason though, I never felt a hit, instead, I felt something slipped into the top of ear, on the side of my hair. I open my eyes as I noticed this. "This suits you better.", he told me with a slight smile. I then suddenly notice, that the rose he was holding was now put on my hair. I blushed as this happened. Chiyo, who was behind me, also widened her eyes seeing him do this. He also left a piece of paper on top of my table. "Thank you.", he told me with a smile. I felt extremely nervous as he did this. For some reason, my heart started beating rapidly with only the thought him flooding my mind. He then walked away and headed to his seat. For some reason, lots of our classmates had their eyes wide as they watched the events that happened to us. My thoughts was clouded so I didn't really hear what they said, only bits and pieces like 'Girlfriend?' 'Confession?' 'Love letter?' came into my mind. For a while, I just sat there trying to process what happened. Finally, I then took a look of the piece of paper he left on my table. My eyes slightly widened as I read it. 'Why... Did he just...' I then reminisce the times I messed with him... Everytime I did it, he kept a guilty expression on his face. This made me think that he actually did the deed and trashed my garden. ...but the actual reason he looked guilty... ...was because he thought I was angry at him for butting in and helping me? I felt regret and remorse as I thought about the things I did to hurt him. I did all that to him, and in the end, he even thanked me? For some reason, my thought were in a mess. Not only was I feeling guilty about doing all that to him, I was thankful because he even tried to save my flowers, and in the end... he even apologized to me even though I did all that. 'I... I-.' ...but for some reason, some other emotion overpowered me... Most of the time, my thoughts would only be filled with stuff about plants, flowers, trees and sometimes, about Chiyo, but now... The only thing that could pop up in my head is him. I am Kimura Maiki. A first year support student of Savior University. I don't really have many redeeming qualities like others, except for my undying love for nature. Trees, crops, plants, flowers, all of them are my precious family. The color of their leaves, the glimmer of their petals, the smell of the air around them, I find it extremely seductive. Their presence makes the world colorful, and I believe my purpose is to tend to them and watch them grow as they brighten up the world. In my eyes, I've always seen them as the most beautiful things this world has ever given birth to. ...but now... I feel as if... I found someone more beautiful. I stared at my black haired classmate again. The three girls, the dreadlock haired guy, the light blue haired guy and the short blonde haired guy all surrounded him as if interrogating him. From the space between them, I stare at him. ["Akira's really kind, you know?"] 'Akira, was it...?' I held my chest as I pouted. '... He's... really just... ...s-scum.', I thought as I looked at him and blushed. Below Akira's seat, was a basket of fruits, and a pink piece of paper that says 'Sorry.'
