It was a long time ago, a day barely remembered. Akira was out playing as he usually did in the hot summer. He didn't much like being at home. He liked being out in the world. The Earth was an adventure to him, just waiting to start. But of course, he'll have to start them with the neighbor girl. What was her name again? No matter, she's fun and that's all that mattered to him. Fun. His one goal in life was to have fun, be interested. Boredom was never the option for this boy.

Ah! There's the neighbor girl! Akira took her hand and pointed the way ahead as they traversed the neighborhood. His stride was long and confident, hers was quite the same. And so they walked together, hand in hand, looking for adventure.

They searched until they reached the park. Parks were always fun, even if they had been to that exact park hundreds of times. There was the bench, the climbing tree, the trees around it that were harder to climb, and then their favorite part; the sandbox. It already had a pile of sand in the middle from the day before. They had been building up that pile for quite a while now. Akira would sit in the sandbox piling up dirt while the neighbor girl would run back and forth from the faucet with a pail to fill with water and dump onto the pile to keep it sturdy.

After all that work, they had finally finished their masterpiece. A structurally stable pile of sand. Thanks to the water, Akira was able to shape it so it was similar to a dome. It was perfect for digging into. He stuck his hand in and prompted the neighbor girl to do so as well, saying to not make the tunnel too wide as to not make the dome collapse. They dug through and eventually their hands met.

What was the name of that girl?

Damn. That was a weird dream. It was strange, really. I usually didn't have dreams that vivid, and when I did they were extremely wild. But this… this is a memory. I remember that day. She told me she'd marry me and I learned of my psychic power then. She was thinking of our wedding. It wasn't that weird when she said that, though. Kids are dumb and say shit like that all the time. I actually accepted her request to marry me. I wonder where my fiancée is now.

Ilooked over at my clock. 6:37. Hm... Oh shit I'm gonna be fucking late for school!

God, I look like the female protagonist of a shoujo manga. There is toast in my mouth and my long, pink locks bounce behind me as I sprint off at full speed towards my high school.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVrKhGW20I
Sadly, I don't actually have locks that are pink nor long, they're just black and short. I'm no attractive manga protagonist, I'm just normal. Though, I suppose my hair is curlier than most. Now that I think about it, there aren't many people in my class with glasses. Just Sakamoto, Yamada, and I. If you remember, I mentioned Yamada Fumio last time, he's the nerd that's always three hours early to class and can write stuff with his mind. If you didn't remember, that's alright. There are twenty-five students in my class, and I've mentioned less than half of them so far. To be completely honest, I don't think even I know all of their names.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBL9yHiEHR
Oh, look at that. There's Hirabayashi Hitomi. You remember Takamaki Yui from last chapter? Yeah, that's her best friend. She's just as pretty and athletic, but Hirabayashi isn't quite as intelligent as Takamaki is. Oh yeah, and she's an Illusionist. Her psychic power lets her project illusions in one's mind, be it visual, auditory, etc. She can give multiple people illusions, but they can only be the same one.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxtc93aMXd
Anyway, Hirabayashi also seems to be running at full speed with toast in her mouth. Now she looks more like an anime girl. But I still would not let her out do me, so I picked up the pace. But she noticed what I'm doing and she picked up the pace as well and now we're running side by side. She forced my hand, now I have to go faster. But as I passed her she glared and passed me up. We continued on like that until we ran through the school gate and… WHAM! Both of us rammed straight into Satou Takeo. Not only was his mind dense as a brick but his body is, too.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMfiX2mdWk
Though Hirabayashi and I were both knocked on our asses from the impact, she stood up and regained her composure immediately, "Well, now look what you did! Not only am I late for school but you made me drop my breakfast!" She yelled, indicating the toast on the ground.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzgQIFAKas
I stood up casually, cracking my back and stretching out a bit. "Yeah, well, my breakfast is on the ground, too," I said, motioning to my own ground toast, "Anyway, we ran so fast we're actually on time. Just mooch some food off your friends, you'll be perfectly fine."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlxhsgZ7RG
"Ugh!" Hirabayashi was the human embodiment of pure rage for a moment there, before doing a complete 180 in her emotion. She did that girl thing where she puffed out her chest and acted all innocent and such, "Takeo… do you have any food I can have? My breakfast is all over the ground." She made an overly pouty face as she asked and she sounded almost like a child.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0w2i7qDjn
"Oh!" Takeo slid off his bag and rummaged around before pulling out a bento box. "Here! You can have this, Hirabayashi!"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrYJ11ANIa
Hirabayashi smiled, said "Thanks!" in an overly sweet tone, and skipped off. She had no remorse.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi83dyfwPId
"You don't happen to have any other food, do you?" I asked.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhvgMIPast
Takeo just looked confused, "No, I gave Hirabayashi my lunch! Don't be so silly, Miyazaki!" He grinned as he walked off, completely believing that I was his intellectual inferior. Honestly, since I can't read him, I'm not 100% sure that he wasn't superior to me in every way and just hiding it. But the more plausible theory is that he has no brain to begin with.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJTEfmFefH
Ah shit. I was too busy spacing out that I forgot to exist properly and now the bell has rung. Whatever, that's cool I can be a bit late, who cares?
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX7mp2OBFn
But before I could get moving, my close good friend Sakamoto himself elbowed me in the side, "Hey idiot, school is about to start. Quit standing there like a moron."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUalBRCk3P
Oof. I rubbed my side and walked alongside him. It was kind of hard though, as his legs were so long. "Dude, how long are your legs even, like, three feet?"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QwVPS0JQB
"Do you think my legs are half my height?"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGSWorWzis
I had to think about that for a moment. Proportions and anatomy weren't my strong suit, "Actually, I don't know... wait a second. I can test this." And as I said that I dropped to the ground, lying on my back.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj5ixzDh0V
Sakamoto turned and looked down at me, "What are you doing?"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcC47qm32q
"Checking to see if my legs are half my height," I explained as I brought my legs up to my chest, careful not to bend my torso.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16WbAZb5GV
"You look ridiculous."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrRPWxUnnd
"Yeah well, now I know my knees go up to my pecs and my legs easily extend past my head." I hopped back up all cool like and Sakamoto and I continued on to class. "You've gotta do dumb things for science, my man."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN3WxbZzIQ
"Uh-huh," Sakamoto rolled his eyes, "So now do you know how long my legs are?"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwOt7rkrtM
"Six feet long," I said with total confidence, as anyone should when they're being an idiot.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVI8HisUVR
Sakamoto exhaled out of his nose in slight amusement, "So I am entirely leg?"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCxEReUSAG
I nodded, "Yes."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQUjfLqG0h
And that was the last thing we could say to each other before we arrived at our classroom.

"Why did you two follow me here?" Satoru asked, exasperated.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkCha5fyJv
I swallowed the food in my mouth. Like hell was I going to forget my lunch this time, "Because now that you know our awesome little secret, we have to eat lunch together. It's law."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInUfVaAPpI
Sakamoto just nodded stoically as he ate. Satoru sighed, "It's still against the rules to be up here…"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKGaLDZb6v
I shoved some rice into my mouth, "That's never stopped you from eating up here everyday this year."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS22HZiNOr6
"Don't speak with your mouth full." I ignored Sakamoto but swallowed anyway.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIEydLLev3
"Yeah but it's only May…"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDZ9eWqu65
"Yeah, it's already after Golden Week. Why do you care so much about us breaking the rules if you've been breaking them since day one?"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnrri9b48V
"I don't know, I just get paranoid when there's anyone up here with me."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nzbmtLOl0
"What are they going to do? Expel us?" I asked as I shoved more rice into my mouth.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0UwjP4quH
"Miyazaki."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiO4RQ8mwQ
I swallowed, "Sorry."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZvNONgewO
Satoru sighed, "I guess you're right…"
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0uZ3hcihW
"Besides," I said, no food in my mouth this time, "Everyone else in our class is paranoid, like, all the time."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PCIhzL7qv
"...Really?" Satoru asked.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhulAuNrvUU
"Dude, they all have wack ass psychic powers that they've been told to suppress from a young age, of course they're paranoid," I deadpanned, "Except Takeo, I have no idea what that dude's thinking."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NzZ5aYW6R
"Maybe… he doesn't think?" Satoru sheepishly suggested.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivJhPSAUGf
I snorted, "That's pretty close to my theory! I'm pretty sure he doesn't have a brain at all."
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRk0UuHdzf
"It would explain a lot," Sakamoto said as he let out a small chuckle.
476Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7RpiZqpRG
Satoru and I laughed along and I was about to fill myself with more food before I stopped myself. Damn I didn't know I had this habit until Sakamoto started hounding me about it. No wonder Emiko is so loud when she eats, she follows my lead. Goddammit.

It was overall a nice lunch with the boys. We should break the rules more often.
