A Shocking Letter

So, from now on, I'll try using the new format.

________________________________________________

The next day, Ryou was going to school after finishing his daily exercise. After exiting the dormitory building, he heard someone calling his name.

"Ryou..."

He turns his body and looking at Ayanokouji who walks toward him.

"Yo... Morning."

"Morning."

"It's unusual to meet you here, I never met you at this time before."

"Let's say I wake up earlier today."

"Oh really, Kiyopon~?"

"Please, don't use that nickname..."

Both of them walking to school. On their way, they meet with Airi who buys juice at the vending machine.

"Morning Airi-chan, drinking juice in the morning?"

"Ah, morning Ryou-kun. Is it weird?"

"Nah, just eat something before you drink it or you'll get a stomach ache."

Ryou reminds his friend looking at the strawberry juice in her hand.

"Morning Sakura-san."

"Hello, Ayanokouji-kun."

"You're really close to Ryou-kun."

"Ah...yes, how should I put this."

Looking at the chance, Ryou grinned.

"Don't be jealous Kiyopon, we're just friend right Airi?"

"Ki...Kiyopon?"

"Please, don't use that nickname!"

Ayanokouji want to hide from embarrassment to be called by that nickname in front of other people.

Arrived at school, they said goodbye to each other and part ways.

"Morning."

"Morning Ryou."

"Yoo..."

Ryou greets his neighbor desk friends, Honami, Ringo, Ryuji, and Fumino.

"Something happened?" Honami ask him.

"Hm...? What do you mean?"

"You look a little bit happier."

'Woah... woman intuition is scary!' he thought.

"Just having a little bit fun with Kiyotaka."

"Kiyotaka? Ah, Ayanokouji-kun? Since when you're so close with each other?"

"Your 'fun' must be you teasing him."

Ryuji is confused that Ryou calling Ayanokouji with his first name, and Ringo already guessed about his fun in the morning.

'Really, woman sometimes can beat an esper!'

"Well, yesterday accidentally I met with them at a cafe in Keyaki Mall. Then, I talk with them, and as you can see, we're calling each other by our first name."

"Them?"

"Ah yes, Kiyotaka, Keisei, Akito and Haruka."

"You're really something, aren't you? First time meeting with them and already become close to call each other by their first name."

"What can I say, it just happens naturally?"

"And one of them is a girl too."

"It's not like only me who calls her by her first name."

"His lady killer ability is scary."

Honami and Ringo looking at Ryou like he is some monster.

"Please, don't hurt this man's heart."

"Said a man who hurt lots of maiden's heart."

It was a checkmate from Ringo, Ryou only smiled weirdly at her.

"How are you guys groups study?" He changed the topic.

"We're doing good, our friend's spirit is at a high level before the exam." Ryuji explains to Ryou about their group study.

They talked about group study development and how their friends improved since the beginning until now.

It can be said that their group study is affecting positively the class 1B students.

..

After the school end, Ryou and his group meeting Airi at their usual place.

"Yoo.. Airi."

"Hello, Airi-chan."

"Hello, Airi-san."

They greet Airi who sits near the vending machine.

"Hello guys!"

She said waving her hand to them. Ryou walks to the vending machine to buy drinks.

"Want are you guys want?"

"Orange Juice."

"Strawberry Juice."

"A milk please."

"Me too."

It's like an unspoken rule for them, one of them will buy the drinks each time they meet, and this time is Ryou's.

He hands them their drinks.

"So, you said you join Kiyotaka's group in your message last night Airi?"

"Yes, I want to be able to communicate with my friends better."

"Oh, that's good Airi-chan, you will get more friends too right?"

Ringo agree with how Airi's way to get closer to her friends by joining Kiyotaka's group.

"Yeah, since the first time we met, I'm able to communicate better with them. Thanks to you guys."

She said with a happy smile on her face.

"Of course that's because of your own effort Airi, you want to change yourself better and get closer to your classmates too." Honami said.

"It makes me happy to be able to go out with them and know them better. They said, yesterday you're with them Ryou-kun?"

"Yeah, they're searching for a place to sit in the cafe and I offered them before Ryuen and his group came to us."

"Huh? He did?" Ryuji a bit surprised knowing Ryuen came to Ryou.

"I don't think he came for me, but unfortunately I'm with the class 1D group when he came."

"What kind of things he's planning now?"

"Don't worry, we'll deal with him if he did something."

They then continue talking about various things before going back to the dormitory.

When they're returned to the dormitory, there was a crowd of people in the lobby.

"Huh? what's going on?"

"I don't know, let's ask someone."

They see Sho with their friends from class 1B.

"What happened?" Ryuji ask Sho.

"It seems that everyone in the first year has received the same letter in their mailboxes."

"What kind of letter?"

Ryou walked through the crowd and turned the dial key on his mailbox.

His friends seemed interested as well, peering from behind.

He then took out the four-way folded paper that was inside and returned to Sho.

"Is this it?"

"Yes, it is."

His friends came back a moment later with the same paper, they opened the letter.

The words printed inside read:

[First-year student Ichinose Honami of Class B might be collecting points illegally. – Ryūen Kakeru.]

'Now, you've done it Ryuen.'

His face turned cold, with no usual cheerful smile on his face.

Ryuen didn't listen to his warning, and now he will do what he has to do.
