Chapter 04: Secret.
第4章: 秘密
The bell rung for the first time of the day, which meant school had started.
After taking attendance, Takashi-sensei then gave a reminder.
" Students, Your P.E. period which is the 3rd period will be replaced by Swimming. You have all been informed last week and reminded yesterday. Please be there punctually and i wish to hear no complaints from the teacher." He said, as he left the class.
Nozomi sighed. " geez. All these programmes this school makes. "
" Its just for awhile till the exams are over Sakurai-chan. " Tomoe tried to cheer her up, as Nozomi hated doing activities. " Meanwhile, let's get ready for the next lesson. "
" mm.. " she nodded her head. Took out her book, then stared out of the window.
ding~ the 3rd bell rung. Which meant it was 3rd period.
Excitement filled the classroom. It felt very warmly.
Students came out of 1-B's classroom and went downstairs to the pool.
It was not an outdoor swimming pool, a swimming pool with glass panels which makes it look like a swimming complex- an indoor pool, which is rectangular in shape.
" C'mon now. Class 1-B ! Brighten up. Today's your first day here at the pool with the school. Please listen to instructions carefully and pair up in groups of threes. " The teacher instructed.
Nozomi as usual, grouped with Tomoe and Kaede.
The class entered the chilly pool. Shivering as their feet first touched the surface of the water.
Nozomi has never done activities such as this before. And the first thing that came into her mind was...
" We're gonna swim in this pool which is 3-7 feet deep... I haven't swim before.. "
Knowing how afraid Nozomi was, Tomoe then held onto Nozomi's hands tightly. She was so scared that she did not even notice their hands were in contact.
After 3rd period ended, they had to go into the showers to take a quick bath and be ready for their next lesson.
Nozomi was so happy with the swimming lesson, she decided to come back after school ended. It was her first time swimming and her first time being so enthusiastic with the activity.
The school was dismissed a little later than usual. Nozomi excitedly went to the school's pool with Tomoe and Kaede.
" Isn't it nice. To be here. Just the few of us looking at a crystal clear pool. " Said Nozomi.
Shocked Tomoe responded, " Since when were you interested in stuff like this. "
She completely got oblivious to her surroundings and stared into the pool. She gave a weird look and said.
" If only it was knee-deep. "
They then burst into laughter.
Suddenly, they heard noises coming from the entrance.
" Ah! Just in time, kids, could you help this girl get the equipment from the equipment room at the courtyard and bring it to the swimming department behind? " She used her palm to push Kirei foward and they had no choice but to say yes. Afterall, she's a teacher.
Four of them walked to the courtyard.
" Kaede imouto and i will move the items upstairs first. Yuhara-kun and Kirei-chan, you two go to the basement. Since Yuhara-kun's here, he can help carry the heavy items downstairs. And since Kirei is the one who was asked to do it in the first place, she shall help Yuhara-kun. " Nozomi said happily as she ordered Tomoe and Kirei while she happily ignored Kirei like she was an ant and chatted happily with Kaede. " Meet back at the swimming complex. " She said as she left.
As Nozomi and Kaede left the courtyard, they headed to the pool which was quite far away.
" C'mon Yuhara-kun, lets move the things before it gets too late! " Kirei said.
" Yeap. " He laughed.
Not for long, Tomoe said, " Ahhh, I'm so sorry that Nozomi is acting this way. She's like that. "
" It's Okay. " Kirei said happily.
Both of them pushed the doors open and Kirei held onto the items while waiting for Tomoe inside the room.
Tomoe took his time to grab onto the hard to reach equipment.
Out of the blue, Kirei suddenly asks, " Hey, Yuhara-kun... Do you like Nozomi? " She asked directly.
Tomoe was left speechless, " W-Why did you ask that? "
" What does she have that i don't? " She said bluntly.
" Ehh..?! " Tomoe was left stunned.
An awkward silence crossed.
Kirei left the equipment she held onto to the floor and went closer to Tomoe.
" Tell me. Is it looks? I'm pretty enough. " She said to Tomoe. He tried avoiding direct eye contact.
" Look at me... " Tomoe still looked away. " Look at me Tomoe-kun. " She called him in a very intimate manner.
" L-Let's avoid that topic. " Tomoe said, as he grabbed onto the things and was ready to leave.
Kirei then grabbed onto the door handle and closed the door shut-tight.
Just at that moment, the cleaner locked up the basement equipment room without looking inside and left Kirei and Tomoe inside. Stranded.
Kirei went even more closer to Tomoe and started to play with his hair.
" I like your hair " she says. " I like everything, your scent, your voice. I long for you Tomoe-kun. "
He grabbed his hand away and pushed her back lightly.
" Runomi-chan, you may like me a lot but i bear no feelings for you. " He said.
" Why?! Is it because of that sly fox Nozomi?! " She enraged in anger.
" Hey, you're crossing the line Runomi-chan, calling Sakurai-chan like that. " Tomoe said, as he sounded quite pissed.
" I don't care what i call her. She's forever like that. Since the first day of school, she got you and everything.."
Tomoe pushed her back, not lightly. And told her off.
" Stop it! " He yelled.
Meanwhile, Nozomi and Kaede waited for quite a long time for Tomoe and Kirei. Thinking both of them got lost.
" Geez. That Yuhara-kun.. " Nozomi grumbled. " Why is he always such a slow poke! "
" Give him time to come neesan, it isn't easy for a person to carry heavy equipments. "
" I-I don't care. I-I'm gonna go look for him. Imouto, follow me. "
Without being hesitant, Kaede went with Nozomi as she was getting worried as well. The Sun's nearly setting.
In the nick of time, they saw Mr. Takashi, their homeroom teacher, carrying his suitcase and a file filled with a lot of papers. They went to Mr Takashi and asked for help.
The three of them shouted around the school compound for them and went to the basement.
Nozomi thought to herself.
" Do you think... They might still be stuck in the basement? It can't be.. It's already locked... "
But in fact, Tomoe and Kirei are still inside! Kirei covered Tomoe's mouth with her hands so that he wouldn't call out to them.
" I swear, if you ever made a sound, i will not forgive you Tomoe-kun. " Kirei whispered. " I do not wish to scold my sweetie. " By then, Nozomi left the basement.
Tomoe got disgusted by Kirei, grabbed her hands and pushed her to the ground.
" I swear, if you ever make a joke about Sakurai-chan, i will not forgive you, Runomi. " Tomoe said coldly. " I do not wish to hit a girl. " He said. Mimicking what Kirei said earlier. His eyes turned as cold as ice. Making Kirei go silent, she just sat still on the ground and cried.
Tomoe then tried to shout for help as he could not open the doors from the inside.
It just so happened that their homeroom teacher, Mr Takashi heard the noises from the basement.
Mr. Takashi then startled and ran downstairs to open the equipment room.
He could not open the room because the door was already locked earlier on.
" Sa-Sakurai-chan! Hi-Hiragaki-chan! " He ran to find them.
Luck was on their side, Nozomi and Kaede were just at the courtyard.
" I'll get the key to open the basement. Wait here ok? "
The both of them nodded their heads, " Okay. "
Mr Takashi ran towards the office to get the keys. As soon as he got his hands on it, he ran back to the courtyard and to the basement to open the doors.
" Are you two alright?! " Mr. Takashi said, after being very worried and concerned.
" YUHARA-KUN! How dare you trick us! " Kaede shouted
" Ahh.. I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to.. haha, the cleaner locked us up by accident. " He replied.
Nozomi went to the corner.
" I'm so glad you guys are okay. That's the main worry. Now, better go back home before your parents start to worry. " Mr Takashi said, covered in sweat, wearing an unfamiliar black suit.
Nozomi and Kaede then walked towards Takashi-sensei, along with Tomoe and Kirei.
" Thank you Takashi-sensei!! "
" Its my job. Haha, take care kids. " As he walked out of the school compounds.
When Nozomi got home, she went expressionless again.
" I wonder what Yuhara-kun and Kirei were doing.."
She thought and though. Till she fell asleep.
Nozomi then dreamt of something.
A Blur scene of trees and grass.
No, the garden at her old home.
The laughter of 2 kids. A boy and a girl.
As the last words she heard, " One day, both of us must get married! "
" Yes Yes! I'll be the mama. " The girl said.
End of Chapter 04 . Stay tuned for
Chapter 05: Protect the one you love.
第5章:１あなたが愛守る
Chapter 04: Author's Notes
Thanks all for supporting till chapter 04. Chapter 03 wasn't as good as the previous chapters as there had been a few complications in the story. Chapter 04 is originally titled " I love my homeroom teacher " However, i decided to change the title to " Secret ".
Mainly because the most parts of the story is based on Tomoe and Kirei's conversation in the basement.
I would hope for a better review than Chapter 3.
PS. Kirei is NOT a new Character. I just included her as for all you readers know, Tomoe is a guy which is very good looking and many girls are crazy over him. One particular person would be Kirei then.
A girl requested for a drawing of Tomoe and Nozomi together, I'd gladly do it asap and post it up as main page :) If its promising.
