7 years after...

"Rei...Rei....REI!!!!!"

"Oneechan! Mou yamete yo! I can be deaf you know!" The 15 years old Rei complain to her big sister,Horikita Maki.

"Are you dreaming about that boy again?" Maki fold her arms.

"What do you mean?" Rei ask with half seepy eyes.

"Your childhood friend from 7 years ago..."

"Of course no, I forget about him already...."

"Good then...now get up,and ready to go to school...Erika-nee is waiting for us downstairs..."

"Haii haii...."

 
"Ohayo,Reichan...Maki..." Erika greets their little sister.

"Ohayo,Erika-neechan...what's for breakfast today?" Rei ask licking her lips.

"Strawberry pancake..." Erika patted Rei's head.

"Yatta! I love them! Ittadakimasu!" Rei eats happily.

"Oni (monster) sure eats a lot..." Maki tease her litle sister and Erika stops them.

Rei look at the time....6.30 AM!

"Shimatta! Oneechan,ittekimasu!" Rei runs towards the door.


Midorikawa Academy...

Rei sure is late...the school gate had been closed and she sighed...

"Guess I need to do it again..." she climbs the school gate... she almost made it when she hears a voice from the back.

"I can see your underwear!" the boy burst out laughing and makes Rei falls down. Rei stands up and knock the boy's head.

"Yamete yo,Ryosuke!!! Ba.ka!!!" she knocks his head.Yamada Ryosuke, he is Rei's childhood friend and they had been friends since junior high...

"Are you late again?" Ryosuke raise his eyebrows.

"Enough talking, I don't want punishments,you hear me!?"

Class....

"Minna,ohayo gozaimas..."

"Sensei,ohayo gozaimas..."

"Now we have a transfer student here, a boy name Arioka Daiki..."

Rei was stunned at her seat...a boy enters the class, he has a calm and quiet personality, his eyes met Rei's but he ignores her...

"Rei...you know him?" Sayuri, Rei's cousin asks.

"Iie...Wakanai..." she lays down her head on the table...

"Is he back? Nande?"
