The Girl Who Isn't Me

The bell is already rang so Rei hurry up to Reina's class. And when she turns towards Reina's class she bump into another student.

"Aaw.." Rei fall into the ground. She looks up and suddenly freeze.

"Ah, my bad.. sorry.."

The guy in front of her is those of the deliquent at her school. He reach out his arm to help her stand again.

"What's up, Fuji?" another guy comes. They must've been skipping out the last period. And why they have to be here. Rei bring herself back up without that guy help.

"Oh, if it isn't Ogami.." said the other guy.

"You know her?" ask the guy who bumped into Rei. Now Rei just realized why she fell, the guy she runs into is big, way over the high school boys average. She only know his name because all the students have been talking about him. He is Fujikawa Ryou. Rei never realized that he is such a huge guy until she actually standing in front of him.

"Oh, she is from my class." said the other guy. "What are you doing here, Ogami. Class almost start."

Well, i can say the same to you, Rei talking to herself.

"Ah yeah, she's friend with your rival." said the other guy again. Now Rei recalls his name is probably Toshi.

"Whaat? You mean that Sakuragi Hideo??" the Fujikawa guy said in very loud voice.

"Yeah, those two is from the same middle school. And so, i think you should make move now, dude. Or else that Hideo guy will snatch Reina chan away."

"Damn, is it true? That Hideo will ask out Reina chan?" Fujikawa suddenly ask Rei.

"Ah..mmm, i think.. i dont .." Rei can't think a way to answer.

"Whatever it is, you should make a move, man

Though i don't think a cute girl like that could like a thug like you.." Toshi giggle.

"Damn it, Toshi. Whose side are you on??"

"I probably have to go.." Rei said whisperly.

Now she has to quickly go to a Reina's class. The teacher probably already there.

Rei stand in front of Reina's class door. The girl in question is there chatting around with her friend. Is it nice just in a few minutes she will find out that Hideo like her. And she will be living Rei's dream.

"Excuse me i'm looking for Asahi Reina." Rei ask a guy near the door.

The guy then call out Reina. She lift up her face and looking at Rei with question mark on her face. Her movement is so cute, almost like a teenage princess from a cartoon movie. Suddenly Rei feels her stomach aching with agony, but she needs to have closure for her feelings. So she clench her teeth and try to be as calm as possible.

"Yes?" Reina ask while smiling.

"Mmm, Re.. i mean Asahi san, i just come by to deliver this message." Rei shows a neatly fold white paper.

"What is it?" Reina ask without loosing her beautifull spirit. Ah, to be this pretty and still kind to people, Rei thinks.

"Its from Hideo." Rei whisper a bit.

And what Rei see is an answer to her long question. Reina's face suddenly become red, blossoming white cheek with pink colour. So, she does has the same feeling with Hideo, Rei thinks. It's not like it's a surprise, they both popular. She prefers if one day this day will come, she ought to be the first one to know. It will be better this way rather than know it from some guy running around and telling that Hideo and Reina is a couple. It's not like she is in a condition to have a relationship either. So, as cheesy as it sound, this is fate she can not avoid.

"So, it's true.." a cold voice come from Rei's back.

It's that Fujikawa guy. When did he follows her to this class.

"Ah, this is so cheeky.. Reina chan i have something to tell you too!" that big of a guy suddenly shout. Surprising both Rei and Reina. Blindsided to be exact.

"Mmm.. sorry but i need to get back to my class." Rei bows before she leaves. She stills can see Reina expression. All the shy red face now gone, her face becomes pale when Rei left her alone with Fujikawa. But the whole class, thanks to Fujikawa's loud voice, now is in outburst, cheering for them.

He isn't going to confess now isn't he? Just because he knew Hideo will also confess too? What a child.

When she arrives at her class, Hideo looks at her with full of hope. Rei answer with a thumbs up and a smile, she proceed to sit on her chair. Just right in time for the teacher to start the class.

Slowly Rei gaze outside the class window, to the football field. So this afternoon, and this summer, Hideo and Reina will become a couple. And so it begin, her life without Hideo in it.
