NO! I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE PROTAGONIST.
"Yo! Brother."
My vision was blurred and I was feeling cold, especially near my face, I know this sensation, I felt it yesterday also. IT'S THE WATER!
I immediately woke up, there she have done it again. My little sister was standing next to me with a smirking and a bottle in her hand.
"Not again, my bed is all wet now."
"I told you to wake up early. I tried to wake you up, three times but you never woke up."
Man I hate waking up early, it's just not meant for me.
"That doesn't mean you have to pour water on me."
"Then shall I jump on your stomach tomorrow?"
"That's worse than water."
"Then water it is."
I sighed.
"Ah, Don't forget to bathe the clothes in the sun. I wonder what our neighbors will think."
"They would careless about others."
"Who knows? They might say stuff like 'Did their child wet the bed again? Aren't their child in middle and high schools? What a shame'." She showed her back to me, her left hand making a semi circle shape and covering her mouth from side and then she looked at me while spitting that.
"If that happens I would be embarrassed to say you are my brother then."
"Yeah, yeah. Now go to school." I took my clothe to the balcony and place in on the top of the iron bar for drying clothes.
I hope that what she says doesn't come true or else I will die of embarrassment.
Well, would you look at that, a fine weather and not a single hint of clouds. What a great weather to start Monday and the worst part is school. Ugh.
I caught a glimpse of the clock on my table which was showing "8:00 AM" Dang I should hurry up.
It took my few minutes to get out going to the school, luckily the street path was full of students of the same dress so it made me little bit relaxed. I joined their walk, as usual they were students who were minding their own business, who were talking to their group of friends and some even studying while walking. As for I, I happened to walk alone, while blending in with other people. They don't even noticed me and that's good.
After a long walk, maybe short, I finally made to my classroom, I sat on my seat which was located at back of the column and on the right row. That's right, I am not near the window, where protagonist would seat.
The classroom was loud as usual, classmates talking to each other in their own friend group and don't worry I am not a loner like romcom protagonist, I have a few friends who happened to eat with me and who sat next to me. For some reason, they weren't in the class nor their bags. Maybe I am early?
"Good Morning, Everyone! And Good Morning Hideki Kun." Came a girl, with her cheerful voice, the way she dressed, it was bit of gyaru type and a bit of proper dress also.

"Good Morning, Hina."
She straight ahead joined in the conversation that her friend group was having. In front of them Hideki, the boy who sat near the window at the front column, was talking with his friends.
It is just assumption but I think everyone likes him, he don't have any weakness or bad things about him. He is totally perfect I would say, Perfect doesn't exist so I doubt he is perfect.
After few minutes of patience, my friends finally arrived. We had non sense chat until the Homeroom Teacher came, she gave us advice on how this is our last year to be in high school and told us not to leave regret. Following that, we had our classes, nothing out of ordinary until in the lunch time.
"Kurai-San, Our homeroom teacher asked you to meet her after eating lunch." The girl in front of seat informed me and went to take her lunch.
As for me, I went on the top of rooftop and ate my lunch by myself. Yea, You got it, I lied about eating with friends, they were just table mates, not a lunch mates and besides I like eating alone.
Alright, time to attend the staff room. The staff room was at the highest floor of the school building so it was two birds with one stone. While I was heading to the room, I heard an unusual noise from the next door of Science Lab. Curiosity got me.
There was few girls that includes Hina, and the most popular girl from other section, Ayu Hiromi who apparently seems to be having a fight with Hina.
"What's your relationship with Hideki? You two were walking together under one umbrella." Hina had an irritated tone.
"You are misunderstanding. We are not what you think we are." Ayu replied with calm experssion.
"Who knows? You might be actually like other girls who are trying to get Hideki for themselves."
"I am not you, I am not interested in boys."
"You talk big being alone here."
"Try me?"
Hina and her two friends were startled of her words.
"Don't you ever get near him, again. There won't be a second warning."
I hurriedly went to the staff room, which was few doors away.
Phew, that was a close one, I am glad that she didn't need to be saved.
I entered the staff room, there were few teachers talking to each other and I saw that my homeroom teacher, Makiko sensei was there, analyzing her papers.
"Makiko Sensei?"
"Oh, Yūhei kun."
"I was told to come here?"
"Oh, yeah I almost forgot. Today's cleaning duty is on you. I want you to take this boxes to the store after class."
"Alright Sensei."
I left the staff room, well, that was waste of time. Well, it is better than worrying about your girls having quarrel over you, it seems pain to do.
Today was more interaction then needed actually, I had witness some quarrels. That's isn't acceptable, I have to reduce it.
Now then shall I head back to the class.
There was anything special event after the class, it was just me blending.
Evening rays shore upon the class, the light was orangish and no one was there obviously, they had all gone to their home and while here I am cleaning the board, emptying the dustbin and finishing up the duty by placing the chair upside down on their respective tables.
Oh, I forgot about the boxes, better get that or else I would get in trouble.
The stairway hallway was bathe by the faint light, it didn't took much of time to take the box to the store. As I head back, carry my bag and reached to the entrance of the building, I was changing my shoes when I coincidently saw Hideki and Ayu together.
"Are you heading back home? Hiromi-San."
"Yamashita-San, Yes and I am very thankful for your help yesterday."
"No, No don't mention it, anyone would have done it also."
There it is, the generous vibe of a protagonist! With that kind and innocent smile I bet even boys would fall for him.
"Would you like to walk home together?"
Nice going, she is perfect heroine for you, a cold and simple girl with kind and cheerful boy, a true romcom, what can possible go wrong?
"No, Thanks, but I have somewhere to be."
My imagination and salvation of seeing them together shattered into pieces.
"Then I will head first, see you tomorrow." He took off, there wasn't a hint of sadness or disappointment. Seeing that I was little disappointed of outcome. I would like to help but a background character should remain the same only can they achieve a true degree of salvation of observing other's romcom and life.
Hiromi also went ahead after she finished changing her shoes and later on I open my shoe rack only to find out a piece of paper. There was nothing on the back but that wasn't the case with other side.
It was noted, "Are you fine being a Background Character? Do you truly believe something like that can make you happy? Think about it."
Huh? Who wrote it?
