«°• For A Bit Of Chance, Maybe? •°»

‹No regrets›

Aoi barely had any sleep this week but she was glad she passed the exam,and now she was on her way home but she doesn't even have the strength to stay awake and walk

She looked around her and saw the playground that was only a few steps away,she walked towards it looked at the  bench in front of her and thought ‘I'm just gonna take a short nap here.... ’

Then she layed down and slept on the bench but due to the extreme tiredness that overtook she slept until the night came.

She opened her eyes and stretched ‘Ah I feel better after sleeping for awhile-’ She cut herself off as she noticed that something was wrong it was dark, the streetlights were on and she was the only one in the playground

“You're awake” A voice called out to her Aoi immediately looked behind her and there was a guy that looked like he was on his 20's he had reddish-brown hair and eyes he was also wearing a pair of  rectangular glasses. She stared at the mysterious man who was calling out to her. She was on high alert since he might do something to her. But he didn't look anything dangerous but rather just a humble and kind guy. For some unknown reason she wanted to know who he is.

“Uhm..May I know youre name I am Aoi Akane” She introduced herself while standing up so she could just run away if he tried anything.

“Just call me Akane”He responded with a smile “You know sleeping in a bench isnt really healthy and its dangerous”

“I guess your right..Sigh I was so tired that I even slept for hours instead of just a short nap...” Aoi said as she looked at the stars 'Mom must be really worried'she thought “Well Akane-kun it was nice meeting you but I need to go now its quite late” she waved goodbye to him while smiling and then left. She felt awkward and that she just wanted to get away from him as far as possible.

Looking at Aoi departing he  couldn't help but remember the smile she gave him before leaving, he stood up walked towards the opposite direction she went.

Akane arrived home, he opened the lights and went straight to bed,he didn't want to oversleep after all. He needed to wake up early in order get into a good university.Since Akane moved out of his parents house and settled into an apartment. He needed to do everything for himself.

••••••
Aoi was walking to school when she saw a familiar reddish-brown haired person not far from her “Akane-kun!” she called out to him

Hearing his name being called out Akane looked behind him and then he saw Aoi approaching him Her hair was in the same hairstyle like yesterday and other than that she was more livier today too he stopped walking and waited for her to come.

“Good morning Akane-kun” “Good morning to you too Aoi-chan”he responded with a warm smile. He went silent as she felt him observe her. “How old are you Aoi-chan?” he asked out of nowhere. Aoi frowned and said“Akane-kun don't you know that you're not allowed to ask a woman's age”Then Akane embarrassingly smiled and said “I'm sorry”

“It's okay I'm actually 20 years old” Aoi said then smiled “Were have the same age then I am studying to be a lawyer how about you?”Akane asked then he looked at Aoi walking beside him Aoi faced him “Oh I want to be a fashion designer” “Thats interesting” Akane was surprised not many people picks fashion designing as a job

“Surprised?”Aoi asked him “Um yeah..” Aoi then looked ahead “Dad said that I'm smart and creative so I should get a job where I could use my talents”After thinking about it Akane agreed.

Akane suddenly stopped when they reached the intersection of the road “What's wrong?” Aoi looked at Akane “My university is that way” Akane pointed at the other street
