3 hours earlier…
Akito leaned back in his chair, lazily spinning a pencil between his fingers.
The classroom buzzed with chatter until someone suddenly stopped behind his desk.
“Akito…”
He slightly looks up
Izumi stood there, clutching a pink envelope against her chest.
“Can you help me with something?”
Akito raised an eyebrow.
“Depends on what it is.”
Izumi hesitated before holding out the envelope.
“I… Wrote a love letter.”
Akito’s expression froze.
“… A love letter?”
She nodded shyly.
“It’s for Haruto.”
For a brief moment, Akito felt his chest tighten.
“… Haruto?”
Izumi looked down.
Akito sighed “So what do you need help on?”
“I don’t think my letters good enough.”
She smiled awkwardly.
“You’re better at writing words than I am…”
“Could you please rewrite it for me.”
Akito immediately shook his head.
“No.”
Izumi puffed out her cheeks.
“Please?”
“No.”
She gave him the biggest puppy-dog eyes she could manage.
“… Please?”
Akito looked at the folded paper in silence. He knew exactly why she had to come to him. His handwritingiting was neater, and he was better at writing the words himself. The problem wasn’t writing the letter…
The problem was… Who it was for.
He let out a loud sigh.
“… You’re impossible.”
Izumi chuckled a bit, and smiled.
“She gave him the letter.” And sat beside him with sparkling eyes.
Akito quietly rewrote everything she wanted to say, in his most neatest handwriting ever.
She watched him write, with those same sparkling eyes.
When he finished…
Akito carefully folded the letter.
While looking at Izumi. “Your really serious about him arent you?”
“Yes I’m so sure.” Izumi chuckled slightly.
Akito chest tightens.
He gives Izumi the love letter.
She carefully looks at it.
Then smiles brightly.
“It’s perfect! Thank you so much Akito.”
Akito looked away, slightly flustered. “Yeah yeah, just don’t embarrass yourself
She smiled.
“I won’t.”
During lunch break…
Izumi nervously slipped the letter into Haruto’s locker.
She smiled to herself.
“… I really hope he reads it.”
Just as school ended…
A teacher hurried over.
“Izumi.”
She turned around.
“… Yes teacher?”
“The principle need your help.”
Her smile disappeared.
“… Right now?”
“Yes.”
She glanced at the clock.
“… But…”
Then she looked at Akito.
“… Can you do me one favor?”
Akito already looked annoyed.
“What?”
“If Haruto is waiting at the back of our school…”
“… Can you go there and tell him to meet me somewhere else?”
Akito sighed.
“… That’s it?”
She nodded.
“Please? This is my only chance… While he’s still single.”
After a long silence...
“… Fine.”
She smiled.
“Thank you!”
Then she hurried away.
After school day ends…
Akito stuffed his hands into his pockets.
“… What a pain.”
He started walking toward the back of the school…
As Akito walked toward the meeting place, he couldn’t help but wonder what kind of person Haruto really was.
“hopefully this won’t take long,” he mumbled.
He took one last deep breath before continuing to the meeting place.
Completely unaware…
… That one misunderstanding was about to change everything.
