Why am I here? I'm scared and I'm soaking wet, my tears won't seem to stop, Ayumi thought as she recalled the beginning of it all.
She had as always spent her lunch break with Mameshiba,her classmate who is careless and always teasing her. She had then returned to class after the break and paid attention in class as always. But she had no idea what was going to happen a few minutes later.
Once the bell rang after the last period, she walked to the girls' bathroom, which was unusually crowded.
"Hey aren't you the girl always hanging out with Mameshiba?" one of them asked her, as Ayumi tried to walk away, the group of girls surrounded her, blocking her way out.
"Why are you always acting so friendly towards him!! He probably hates your personality," another girl commented as she threw a bucket of water at Ayumi and then with combined effort the girls pushed Ayumi into a toilet cubicle and locked her in.
"Let me out!"Ayumi yelled but to no avail as the girls footsteps moved away and before long were inaudible.
Why couldn't I speak and make my way out...I was shocked by what they said? Was I? Does Mameshiba really hate my personality??Why was that the only thing running through my head?? Ayumi thought
Meanwhile Mameshiba was waiting for Ayumi, as she had wanted to go shopping with him and was unusually late.
Where the hell is that idiot! I don't have all day! Mameshiba thought, when he overheard a group of girls.
"But she deserves it...acting so familiar with Mameshiba, Who does she think she is? So annoying," one of them commented as the others laughed.
"Where is she?"Mameshiba asked, as he walked towards them as they slowly backed away.
"Where is she!!!" Mameshiba ordered them threateningly.
I'm scared, Ayumi thought as the tears paced down her cheek, will anyone find me? I can't stop sneezing...I can't even raise my voice...thoughts just rushed through Ayumi's head...
When Ayumi heard hurried footsteps, they were getting more audible and then the door opened and there stood Mameshiba, he was panting.
Mameshiba's eyes widened as he saw the tears on Ayumi's cheeks...for he had never seen her crying but here she was looking so helpless. Mameshiba walked towards her and hugged her.
"It's alright," he said gently.
"Is it hateful? My personality..."Ayumi asked...that was all she could force herself to say, when he looked into her eyes and moving forward he kissed her on her lips.
"Don't ask anything more," he said looking embarrassed and then carried her as she could barely stand.
But Ayumi noticed only then that Mameshiba was shaking. Had he been so worried? Ayumi thought as she reached out for his hands and held them.
"Idiot, you should be more worried about yourself," Mameshiba said as he looked away and Ayumi smiled.
