Class 2-B, 8:90 AM(Isn't the timing wrong?)
Sadness. That's what filled the classroom right at this moment.
Why you may ask?
Well, they are still highschoolers, and so they have to focus on studies. Most importantly, exams.
Mid-term exams.
Mr. Tanabe was the one to bring this sadness.
"So.. The principal says, if even one of you fail the exam, the school trip for your class will be cancelled." He repeated once again, standing before the desk-turned-podium.
Everyone immediately turned their eyes on one single person.
Daichi.
"You idiot!" Noa shouted, knowing fully he hadn't even done anything wrong, but just existed.
Even Aika couldn't help but look at Daichi with pity. "Are you sure you will be able to pass?"
Even in all this chaos, Riku and Mei were in a different world.
Riku turned straight 90° to his right and before he could speak, Mei already declared herself.
"Just give up. I will be at the top of the board." She said, adjusting the glasses that popped up out of nowhere.
"Is that supposed to make you look smart?" He said, glancing at her round, white glasses
"...Yes" She replied and turned back quickly.

Evening, at the library. A group of students were surrounding a table, growling at a single poor kid.
"HOW ARE YOU GETTING NEGATIVE 271?!??" Reika was almost about to kill Daichi with her pen but Aika held her off, trying to calm her down.
"Tch! You are angry cause Kaito isn't here" Daichi fought back.
Reika's eyes turned pure white, from the anger. She pulled her hand to hit him but Aika calmly stopped her.
"Hey, it's okay. We can take it slowly." Aika slowly seated Reika on her seat.
"I mean you tell me. Does it make sense to you for Tom to buy -271 apples?" Reika kept shaking her head, while Noa added "he's stupid. Let's just kill him and we all will pass easily"
Daichi was almost about to cry from all that insults, he glanced at Aika for some help, but she couldn't help but only try to comfort them all.
Just in that moment, Yuto appeared.
"Stop shouting, this is a library, you know?"
"Oh you are here!" Riku waved from a distance. He was sitting with Takumi, away from the fierce crowd.
Yuto swiftly approached him and sat next to Takumi. "They sure are harsh on him"
"What can you do? He's an idiot" Takumi shrugged, throwing his hands dramatically as if he wasn't a part of that "idiot" term.
"You are one to talk" Taiga and Daiki said in unison.
Daiki turned his head towards Taiga, "You are one too, brother"
And suddenly, the richy Niko appeared, grabbed taiga's back collar, picked him up and left.
They all sat in silence, but they weren't concerned. It was an everyday event by now.
"Oh, now that I see. Mei isn't present." Yuto glanced at Riku as if he knew what she would be doing right now, and he did.
"She's studying with Sora and Arisa, she's probably at Arisa's house"
Yuto noded calmly, "Oh. I see. By the way, Do you know where Arisa liv-"
"YOU IDIOT!!!" Reika kicked Daichi out of his chair, the poor kid flew from one table to another, laying right in front of Yuto. Yuto blinked once, Daiki twice and Riku just closed his eyes, he'd seen this man fly farther that this. This wasn't a "rare" moment at all.
"Bleh.." Daichi yelped, his body lifelessly lying on the table.
Riku opened his eyes and checked Daichi's pulse. "Alive, fortunately."
"You mean unfortunately, right?" Noa swiftly corrected Riku.
"Uh.... yes." Riku did not disagree. He knew what happened to a man who used to disagree. That man was lying right in front of him.
He slowly sat back down.
Next, Yuto spook. "Hey, it's okay. I will teach him."
"I was going to say that. You better do. If he doesn't pass, you both will pass away" Reika threatened, hands crossed.
Yuto gulped. This was one big risk. There was no denying it, Daichi was a stupid idiot. Yes, that was his nickname, "Stupid idiot".
Riku patted Yuto's shoulder and spoke.
"Don't worry. He's actually not that bad. We will easily teach him."

A few moment later.
Riku was currently being held back by Daiki from killing Daichi.
Yuto sighed.
"What a familiar scene"
