Chapter 8

Yawn

“It’s morning again, I guess I should get ready for school then.”

Sniff

Sniff

“It smells like someone cooked breakfast, it must be Shinko. I’ll head down then but I should put my uniform on and brush my teeth first.”

“Oh good morning Seki”

“Good morning, I didn’t know you knew how to cook.”

“Of course I do, It’s only rice and fish anyways so It’s not much but I hope you enjoy it.”

“Still I’m impressed and thank you.”

I wonder how Shinko made it but it does look good. The only way to find out how it tastes is by eating it so here I go.

“Wow Shinko this is really good, It also tastes really light, like they didn’t add a lot of seasoning but they added just enough, you would be a great wife someday.”

“Do you really think so?”

“Mhm”

“Oh Seki look at the time we have to go.”

“Alright I’ll just put my plate away really quick thanks for the meal.”

Slam

“Hey Shinko, aren’t we leaving a little early?”

“Yes but since we moved it will take about an extra 10 minutes to get there and I didn’t want to have to rush our way there.”

“Oh, alright”

You would never be able to tell by her personality and figure that she was a responsible girl but she seems to be more responsible than me.

“Hey Seki do you want to go to the store and get some meat buns?”

“Sure but I don't have any money.”

“I already know that”

My eyes suddenly adjusted and got a bit bigger and it seemed as if I was talking to a straight goddess.

“Thanks for your purchase!”

Hmm it seems that the people here are also nice like back home.

Hawm

“Mmm Seki this is really good.”

Well they certainly look good…

“Wow it really is good and extremely warm. These meat buns are perfect for winter mornings like this.”

Crickle

Well now we are back here at the same place so I assume that we have to say the incantation and walk through the tree again.

“Alright Seki this will be our last time doing this.”

“What do you mean Shinko?”

“Starting tomorrow we are going to take the normal way to school, well it’s very normal but it’s the same way all of the other students go but to be honest I don’t think I’m allowed to show anyone this entrance.”

“Oh alright then”

What does she mean by she doesn't know if she is allowed to show me this entrance? Maybe it’s a shortcut or something.

“Seki, give me your hand”

“My hand? Why”

“We need to say the incantations and go through the cherry blossom tree again and it will be alot more safer if we held hands.”

“I get it then, alright here's my hand.”

“Seki now repeat after me again. Illusion Departure”

“Illusion Departure”

Once again I open my eyes just to see myself holding hands with a cute kind girl in another place, well back to school I guess, It’s surprising that im just living life here like nothing even happened but I won’t forget my mission.

“Hey Seki, we still have a bit of time left before classes start, I can show you around the school if you want, since.”

“Yeah sure”

“Hey look the fire queen is holding hands with that new transfer.”

“Yeah, do you think there dating?”

Wow she let go of my hand quick after she heard them say that seems she cares about what other people think, but

“Hey Shinko are you sick? You’re face looks really red.”

“N-No I’m fine don’t worry about it.”

“Alright, can you tell me why the other students here call you the fire queen?”

“Ohh that, sorry, I can’t tell you that at the moment but eventually I will but for now let's just start the tour.”

Huh I wonder if it’s something important or some type of secret? Well no it can’t be if she says she will tell me eventually.

Bell

“Alright that was the end of the tour and the bell just rang so it was perfect timing. Seki let’s head to are class now.”

“Ok”

So I guess this is my life now just going back to class as if nothing happened and pretending nothing happened. Oh well then at least I have Shinko here for now, man shes cute.

“Why are you staring Seki?”

“Sorry, I was just thinking.”

“Alright class don’t forget to study the material, your mid-term exams are coming up.”

Bell

Alright time for the magic class now, if thats what it’s even called. Although today seems a little strange, in all of my classes the other day people tried to talk to me but today no one did it could be just because they were surprised to see a new transfer but well, maybe I’m just looking too much into this.

“Seki can you go on ahead I have to use the restroom.”

“Alright”

Wow walking down this hall almost feels nostalgic like from my old school but I never felt this way while I was walking with Shinko. Maybe thats because I was always alone during school.

“Huh whats this”

A poster? This wasn’t outside the class yesterday.

“Thats the poster for the 19th annual festa to determine the next select few to join the cleanup crew.”

“Woah prez where did you come from?”

“I was just on my way to class myself”

“Oh ok, whats that on your arm?”

“This is just a kind of emblem stating that I am apart of the student council here.”

It looks kind of cool it’s kind of small and round that even says student council on it that attaches to her clothes and the colors even match the school uniform.

“Well good bye for now Seki.”

“Alright prez”

Well I guess I’ll just go in class now and wait for everyone to get here.

Ahh It’s nice and warm in here surprisingly, even though It’s winter and even so who is that up in the corner? She is sitting in the same seat I did yesterday but I don’t think she goes to this school, she has on the same uniform as Shinko but shes just to small and adorable, oh crap she turned and looked at me I think she noticed me staring

Wow she is adorable and she even reminds me o-

“WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!”

My little sister!
