The sunken

"Akira!!!!" Kimura Sensei yelled and threw a chalk at my forehead.
"Ouch!" The chalk bounced off my head and hit Hikaru's head.
"Sensei, you need to work on your aiming." Wakui said with a grin.

Ah, I was half asleep again, I was reading manga the whole night, without realizing that it was time to go to school. It is after all a price to pay for being an otaku. Haiz, poor me.

Oh, forgotten to introduce myself, My name: Akira Riku, Age: 15, status: single,
number of friends: uncountable, Popularity: no idea, IQ level: a little bit above average(self-praising), a normal high school girl with a huge appetite. The only thing that makes me different is my ancestors is made up of different backgrounds, religions, cultures, and so on, and so, I am a mixed breed.

Spending everyday life is actually very easy for someone living alone, well, my mom and dad passed away 2 years ago so what can I do? Having other people to take me under their wings is impossible, after all, they never like me one bit anyway. All I can do is living under my very secret guardian, whom I never even seen before, weird huh?

...

"I'm home."
"..."
sigh, I guess this home would always be empty then. I enter the empty room, placing my bag on the empty chair, switching on the lights of that empty room, staring at the empty ceiling and started dreaming away.....

That was quite an odd dream I had, I dreamed of my parents and I walking along beach, hand in hand and talking away. That dream didn't last long, I woke up just after 15 minutes of sleep. My clothes soak in sweat and tears. Weird, I haven't cried ever since my dog died, I never even shed a tear when my parents died. I wonder where these tear come from.

...

"Akira!!"
I turned around and saw Hikaru running towards me.
"What's up?"
"Today's test, you studied?"
"Oh, I did, you?"
"No...so let me copy afterward, please?"
"Don't waste your breath on her, Hikaru."
"Don't say it like that, Kyousuke."
"You both are stupid, I wouldn't want that stupidness to infect on me."
"Aren't you a bit cold today?"
"No, I am very hot right now..."
"Kriiiing!!!"

Then the test pass by so gracefully, for me that is...
Staring at that clear blue sky, I started dreaming again(I love to dream, mind you)This time the dream had the cast different. This time is me, and unknown young man, holding hands.

"Akira?"I woke up again by Hikaru's soft, sneaking voice.
"What?"
"Let me see your test."
"No."
"See, I told you. Even when the test is over she won't let you look."
"Aw...come on, just a peek. Please, Akira?"
"No."
"Ok, time's up, please pass up your test paper."
"Now you've done it, I'm sure to fail..."
"Congrats..."
"..."

Another day of school just ended so quickly...
