Chapter 3

(A/N Notes: Well, this is awkward, for me no the story)

"..."

Cicilia was listening to the lessons her teacher was giving to the class, and it was pretty boring

"..." <What're the chances of us studying in the same school?>

Cicilia was still surprised by the fact that she and Yasu studied were now studying in the same school

"..." <Maa... I better stop thinking about it, since it won't solve anything>

And she simply focused on the boring lesson of the teacher

Meanwhile, in Yasu's classroom

"And then this caused this, that was caused by that, but wait, there's this other thing that also influenced it"

His teacher had brought his own board filled with images and lines connecting the images, while he explained everything like a crazy conspiracy theorist

(The office conspiracy meme)

And everyone was paying attention to him, mostly because it was hard not paying attention to his explanation

"..." <The hell is he explaining again?>

Although he was getting everyone's attention, nobody was actually learning anything because of how convoluted his explanation was

Lunch break

Now it was lunch break, Cicilia who managed to excuse herself from her classmates who started to barrage her with questions, was now searching for an open seat in the cafeteria with a tray of food in her hands

"Ah! found a seat"

And she went to that seat and sat down as she put her tray on the table, then she noticed that there was already someone using the table

"Hm?"

"Huh?"

It was Yasu with his always expressionless expression

"..."

"..."

"... Aren't we meeting way too often?"

"... Maybe"

"..."

"..."

And they simply went on eating their food

A few minutes later

"... So... What brings you here... To Japan?"

"Huh? Ah! Sì... I mean yes... Actually, it was because my father was transferred here, that made me and my family come to Japan"

"I see..."

He ran out of ideas for a talk

"Hmmm... If it's not too much trouble for you... Could we see the school together?"

"Huh? Sure, you probably aren't familiarized with the school yet, so it doesn't hurt to show you around as your senpai"

"... Senpai?"

"You don't know what Senpai means?"

"No..."

"Then... Give me a second... I think you Italians probably call it as studente senior, am I right?"

"Ah! Studente senior, I see, I see, so that's what senpai means ... ... ... Huh?"

Cicilia was confused when she realized what he meant by that

"You're my... Senpai?"

"Yup, my face might make some think I'm 16, but I'm very well 17. And since you're wearing the green and yellow tie, it means you're my kouhai, and probably 16 years old too"

"... Kouhai?"

Cicilia had learned Japanese, but she wasn't completely used to it yet, so there was still quite a few words that she didn't know the meaning of

"... It means junior, you're a studente junior"

"I see... ... ... Wait, that means you're one year older than me?"

"That's what I just told you"

"Huuuuuuuhhhhhh!?!?!?"

Of everything that happened so far, knowing that Yasu was actually older than her and her senpai was the most surprising for her, by a lot

After lunch

"And this is how you do this, m'kay? And that is how you do that, m'kay? Those are how you do those, m'kay?"

"..." *Dozing off*

Because of how boring her lessons were being, Cicilia was having trouble keeping herself awake after lunch, and so was the rest of her class

Yasu's classroom

"Andthisishowyouthisthatcanalsobeusedforthatwhichcanbeusedforthatotherthingtoo..."

(White board guy explain meme)

"..." *Quickly copying his teacher's notes with his usual expressionless face*

His teacher had a problem of always saying everything too fast, making everyone become desperate to copy his notes before he erased it

Later

*School bell ringing*

"Huh!?"

Cicilia opened her eyes in surprise and cleaned the drool that was leaving her mouth, then she looked around and saw everyone else also waking up, while the teacher had already packed his things and was now leaving

"*Yawn* ... Huh? What was this last lesson about again?"

She had forgotten what the lesson she was about, but seeing everyone else packing their belongings, she also began to do the same

"Nee, Carcano-san. Do you want to go to the karaoke with us?"

"Yeah! We want to hear how you're like when singing"

A few girls tried to invite her to have a walk with them

"Mi dispiace... I mean sorry, but I already have an appointment"

"Aaaww... Too bad, we wanted to hear you singing in Italian"

"Ahaha... Maybe next time"

The girls then left slightly dejected at not being able to invite Cicilia

"Buon pomeriggio, Carcano-san"

"!"

Cicilia got surprised when she heard someone greeting her, and when she looked in the direction of the voice she saw Yasu with his expressionless face standing in front of the door

"Buon pomeriggio, Yasu. Just wait a little bit, I'm almost finished here"

"Okay"

And with that, he stopped blocking the door and rested his back on a wall. And a minute later, Cicilia came out of the classroom

"Let's get going then?"

"Sure"

And he straightened himself, but before he could even start walking, he pointed in the direction he was planning to go, then he pointed in the opposite direction, then he made a thinking pose

"... Do you prefer starting from the right or from the left?"

"... Why are you asking me that?"

"I have no idea why"

"... From the right?"

"Okay, then follow me"

And he asked for Cicilia to follow him as he went to show her the school, starting from the right, to which would be the same if they went to the left. Some saw the two interacting, and even fewer talked about it

"Do they know each other?"

"Probably"

"By the color of his tie, he's most likely a senpai"

"Don't say it, if it wasn't green and yellow then, of course, it would be a senpai

"I would guess, he's from the second year"

"I will go for the third year"

"... Should we get going?"

"Yes, let's, or else all the booths might get occupied"

They didn't bother on discussing further since they thought it would be rude to Cicilia

About an hour later

"And I think this should be all"

"*Huff huff* This school is pretty big"

"Yes, it is"

"How are you not tired?"

"... It's probably because I just have good stamina"

Yasu and Cicilia were back at the school entrance putting on their outdoor shoes, he had shown her everything that there was in the school, and there was a lot of stuff

"Well, I think it's time for me to go home. Arrivederci, Yasu"

"Hm. Yeah, arrivederci, Carcano-san"

And she went home, but before she even left the school grounds, Yasu passed by her while riding a manual scooter, and making a stylish turn

"..."

And she got slightly surprised and confused at seeing him do that with an expressionless face
