Chapter 2 - Something new: "Coincidence or destiny?"

Once again, Itsuki wakes up, with an audible groan, then packs his stuff up and gets ready for school

He walks off, towards his station, and as he arrives, he waits for his metro by pulling out his phone and checking the time, then, he starts doomscrolling

His metro arrives, and he steps inside, and has to hold onto one of the metal bars with one hand, because his usual seat is occupied

Time seems to pass by really quickly, and as he walks off the metro...

*BUMP!*

He bumps into someone, and immediately snaps back to reality

- Im so sorry! i wasn´t paying attention and-

The girl he bumped into would look at him, a 160cm, with brown hair and a beautiful golden necklace girl

They´d lock eyes, and both would stare at each other for longer than necessary

After what seemed like an eternity, she breaks the silence

- It´s okay, - She says - don´t worry about it, i-i should have paid attention too...

She´d give him a cute, reassuring smile

- N-no! I was zoning out and i should´ve seen you! it´s my fault...

She´d look him in his eyes, her beautiful greenish eyes piercing his gaze

- Seriously, it´s okay! D-don´t get all worked up...

She says, with a hint of a blush on her cheeks

As Itsuki looks down, he realizes something, she is wearing the same uniform the girls from his school wear, he´d be confused, and would then break the loud silence with a question:

- D-do you... study in the Raseka Secondary school, by any chance?...

She´d look surprised, and look down at her own clothes, then smile

- Oh... yes, i do study there, wait, how do you know?

She´d look at him, the earlier embarassment replaced with confusion

Itsuki would feel something take over him

- O-oh! It´s just because that uniform seemed familiar, yeah.

He´d have lied to her face

- I-im not a creep! I swear! I have a friend who studies there...

He tries to explain the reason behind him knowing the uniform

- O-oh... that´s really cool!... like, really...

She´d blush again, heavily this time

- E-excuse me... im really late and, my class is about to begin, i need to go, g-good morning!

She´d run off, attempting to disguise her blush

Itsuki would then put a hand over his mouth and would think to himself, as he blushed

- OH MY GOD... WHAT WAS I THINKING?! WHY DID I LIE ON HER FACE?! AM I STUPID?! HOW DID I LET THAT TAKE OVER ME?!

He´d take a deep breath

- It´s fine, it´s alright, you said something stupid, REALLY stupid, what do you do now?...

He´d think to himself, unsure of what to do next

- Who am i trying to lie to? I don´t know what to do now! And what class does she even study on?! How come i didn´t ask the important things?!

He´d try to downplay the situation

- You probably won´t ever see her again... relax... just walk towards your school, Itsuki...

He´d start walking towards his school, and keep discussing with himself

- Actually, i might definitely see her again, she studies at the same school as i do!...

He´d keep walking, but then, feel a grip on his shoulder, and look behind him instantly with a jump, blushing and scared

- Dude... you alright?

Sato would look at Itsuki and see his face, then Itsuki would make an excuse:

- O-OH! Yeah, i was just, thinking about something! nothing special, really...

- You sure? I don´t see you blush since primary school, buddy...

Claims Sato, confused by Itsuki´s unusual change in behavior

- T-trust me! and if it was something, i´d tell you, you know that!

He´d listen to Itsuki, and smile softly, knowing Itsuki has a point

- Let´s just go to school, bud...

Both would walk together towards their school, and would get inside, they were extremely late, and would start running towards their classroom, upon arriving, Sato pushes the door with an unnecessary force and it hits the wall, with a very loud slam

- T-TEACHER... IM SORRY... WE ARE LATE...

Says Sato, filled with exhaustion

- Just sit down, both of you.

Says the teacher, annoyed by their interruption.

They walk to their seats and sit down, and Itsuki gives in to his thoughts again as he opens his book

- Was that an coincidence or was it destiny?... I don´t even believe in destiny anyway....

He´d lean on his chair and keep thinking, as the teacher continues their class.
