Plans for Later

The bell rang at the end of the Sixth Period. The homeroom teacher left the classroom, while the students gathering their things and also leave the classroom.

Oshan was putting his books in his school bag when Suiiki came, carrying his bag on his shoulder with a cheerful look on his face.

"Hey Oshan, me and Etsuko we're going to a karaoke, wanna come too?"

"Don't you want some private time with your girlfriend?"

"Don't worry it's okay and she doesn't mind. Either way... it's my duty as your friend to makes sure, you're having fun in your daily teen life"

"Thanks, but no... i got to read for tomorrow's test like you should too" Oshan said as he stand up from his seat and wear his school bag on his shoulder

"Oh, come on now don't be such a buzzkill, seriously you need to learn to go outside more often Oshan"

"Whatever, it's not like I'm spending all my time studying like you saying"

Oshan was very responsible about his studies, and his grades were very good, but he always enjoyed playing video games and reading books on his free time. Most of his activities in his free time were indoor though, and that made Suiiki worrying about his social life. Suiiki was also played video games along with Oshan sometimes, but he mostly enjoyed hanging around in the city and going to karaoke.

"Either come at least with us for a bit, we will walk together, your house is onour way anyway" Suiiki said as both of them left the classroom.

"Sure, I don't mind that, it's the perfect opportunity to inform Etsuko of you checking out other girls" Oshan replied to him teasingly

"Oshaaaan, you're not a friend you double-crosser. Treating your precious friend like this, when he's trying to find you a girlfriend" 

They walked into the hallway to the next classroom. Etsuko classroom was not far away from theirs. The entered the classroom where they were still some students in it. Sometimes students were staying in classrooms after the end of the lessons to keep company to those with cleaning duties or to study together.

As they walked inside they approached Etsuko's desk.

 Etsuko was still sitting on her seat talking with three other girls around her casually talking. When she saw Suiiki, Etsuko stands up and fall into his arms and hug him tightly.

"Suiikiiii, did you come to get me? I didn't know you were the romantic type" Etsuko said to him with her bubbly voice.

Etsuko was shorter than Suiiki, so her head was at his neck as she hugging him.

"Hehehe I knew you couldn't stay away from me too long Etsuko" Suiiki said with an arrogant tone, but his cheeks were blushing from the hug and he stroke Etsuko twin-tails of her hair

The other girls that Etsuko was talking, didn't lose any chance to pick up on Suiiki.

"Ewww you're such a loser talking all highly and mighty to poor innocent Etsuko"

"Yeah, you must be more gentleman Suiiki"

"Etsuko dearie, why don't you leave this good for nothing loser"

Etsuko paying no attention to their comments turn her head and look at them with a big smile on her face.

"Don't worry girls, my sweet Suiiki is just trying to act cool, but love his big heart. Also that doesn't mean i won't love you anymore, you're my dearest friends"

The three girls pulled away Etsuko and squeezed her between their embraces while petting her head.

"So cuuuutee" they say together with one voice

Etsuko was very popular in her classroom, especially among her friends for her bubbly personality and her big heart. Her petite figure suits her personality completely and sometimes fall victim from other girls taking her as a model for trying their new makeup products or trying new hairstyles with her hair. That didn't bother Etsuko one bit, and she was always willing to help, or more like have fun with everyone around her.

The girls turned their attention back to Suiiki as they released Etsuko from their squeezing jail.

"If you ever make Etsuko cry, you're dead man Suiiki" one girl said to him while looking daggers at him

"Okay okay, noted" Suiiki said apologetic without having done something wrong

A lot of Etsuko's friends were a bit protective with her by the fact that she was purer and innocent in romantic matters. Also, the fact that Suiiki gave playboy vibes made him target for a lot of glaring's from the others.

Etsuko then noticed Oshan standing behind.

"Oh Oshan! Sorry for not saying hello to you, I was too busy with my cute boyfriend being all red and shy"

"Hey, I wans't blushing" Suiiki complaint to this accusation

"Are you coming to the karaoke with us?"

"No, I'm sorry not today Etsuko, I have to study for tomorrow's test in mathematics. Also, it makes me wonder how will Suiiki manage to study if he goes out tonight" Oshan said as he looked suspiciously to Suiiki

"Oh, don't worry Oshan, I know for tomorrow's test, that's precisely why we're going out to study in the karaoke rooms" 

"Well, we will sing some songs too...." Suiiki whispered quietly 

"Only if you read properly Suiiki" Etsuko said with a voice that didn't take any other opinions

Oshan looking at them laugh, by the scene which was more like a mother-child deal than a boyfriend-girlfriend discussion.

"Well, if that's your plans maybe I will come with you"

"Really!!!?" Suiiki asked surprised

"Sure, if you're going to study, also I must help Etsuko deal with you in your studying for tomorrow's test" Oshan smirked at him

"Splendid Oshan, it will be much easier to make him study together" Etsuko clapped her hands together excited

"Hey you two!!! Don't form an alliance against me!" Suiiki whimpered 

"Come on now Suiiki, it's for your own good" Etsuko patted his head gently

"Yeah, for your own good" Oshan said as he was trying to get hold of himself from laughing
