A boy stood in the living room, in front of him was a couch on which two adults were sitting: his parents.
The father, with brown hair who looked to be in his 40s, and the mother, with purple hair, looked young.
the atmosphere was heavy. Everybody could feel the cold.
''Minoru, we enrolled you in another school.'' Said the father.
Minoru's face was cold. Inside, he was boiling.
''Why?''
''Minoru, we're doing this for your own good-'' in the middle of his sentence, his sentence was interrupted by mother.
''I know your classmates are excluding you. Even if you're focused on your studies, they shouldn't. Your Dad and I decided a new school would be better for you.''
Minoru was speechless. He didn't know what to say.
A teenage, brown-haired boy stood and nodded.
Father looked at the two of them. Whenever he spoke, Minoru always argued with him. However, now it was different. Perhaps because of his mom.
Minoru was always mommy's boy.
Everyone in the family knew it.
''When do I start a new school?'' he asked.
''From tomorrow, your uniform is in your closet, good luck kid!'' his father wished him good luck.
''Yeah. good luck to me.''
The boy went to his room.
''Do you think he'll be able to handle it..?'' the mother asked with concern
''handle what?''
''handle people from his new class, idiot!''
Mom looked at Dad negatively.
''Yumeha, don't worry. Minoru will be fine. He's focusing solely on his studies anyway.''
Yumeha releases the breath.
''I know, but if it goes like this, he'll waste his youth. He needs to have at least one friend.''
''I have a feeling this will change, yumeha.''
''I hope you're right about this one, Daichi.''
...
Minoru's room was a mess, even though he's a genius at science, he hates cleaning.
Minoru looked at his new uniform.
He hated everything. All the success he'd made this school year would be wasted. Who cares about new people?
It will probably be the same as at his old school.
He didn't even give himself hope.
Hope is for naive people.
when he looked at the uniform his eyes expressed disgust.
''It's not like I'll make friends by chance.''
''no one would want to be friends with this disgusting person.''
He looked at the mirror. His reflection.
What he hated most in the world wasn't people.
It was him.
--------
''My name is Aisaka Minoru, nice to meet you.''
He was already at a new school, but he already hated it.
He looked at the faces of his classmates.
Their faces expressed admiration. He hated it. He hated it when anyone liked him. No one should like him.
''aisaka-kun, sit in the middle row, 3rd seat from the front.'' the teacher recommended. It was the only available seat.
Once he sat down, his neighbor on the right spoke to him.
''Hey, dude! nice to meet you, I'm Ishida Asahi!''
His peer looked well-built. It was obvious he had been training for something.
But Minoru didn't care. He didn't care about friendship.
''Leave me alone.''
''Ah, you don't like talking during class? I see!''
Minoru ignored him.
A moment later, the lesson ended. In an instant, the entire class, except for two students, ran to him.
''Are you single?''
''What is your type?''
''What's your hobby, Aisaka-kun?''
Minoru hated it when people paid attention to him.
''I don't want to hang out with you, leave me alone, you losers.''
he said it coldly.
His class looked at him strangely, but they kept their distance.
expect for one person.
It was ishida.
''Dude, you won't get rid of me that easily!'' He laughed.
Minoru didn't answer him.
Ishida was right. He clung to Minoru like a child to his dream.
Minoru didn't pay attention to it at first, he thought that if he ignored him, he would leave.
that was a big mistake.
Ishida became something of his first friend.
They ate lunch together and made tons of memories together.
Minoru felt like he was doing something wrong. This wasn't supposed to happen. No one should be friends with him.
Even though Ishida said they were friends, Minoru didn't want to admit it, saying he didn't recognize their friendship. He was just as cold.
Soon many girls loved him for his cold personality.
One day when he wanted to change his shoes and go home he heard this:
''Aisaka-kun is like a cold prince!'' One of the girls said
''No, he's more like those book characters!''
''he's like an anime character!''
he heard a few girls in his class saying that he was an unrealistic person, that he is a character from a book, anime, fairy tale.
He hated it.
He's had enough, he's not perfect. He's one of the worst.
''What's wrong with these girls? They didn't behave like this at their previous school.''
and he left school and went home.
He often got asked by his parents how school was going. He always replied that it was okay.
It was better at the previous school.
