Slice Of Life

April.

On my first day of high school, I was enthralled, nervous, enthusiastic and experiencing all kinds of emotions at the same time.

As I arrived quite early on the first day, I didn't expect Ayasaka Ai, my middle school crush to be there.

It's been a month since I have interacted with her, so I was awkward and couldn't initiate the conversation.

No, I am not that pathetic. There was a reason.

It seemed like the whole world was frozen. Only me and she existed.

I could hear my heartbeat quite loudly, the loudest I have ever heard.

"I like you."

These are the words I recieved from her on my first day of High School.

And...

"April fool!"

... right after that.

Haha ... ha.

What a start of my High School life.

I could only say, "Figures."
