"Jii-chan, breakfast's ready on the table." I hastily braided my thick black hair while shouting at my grandfather who's tending his garden in our backyard "I'm gonna be late for school so I can't join you. I'll just eat bread on my way there" 

"Hai, hai, Arigatou Cozbi-chan" My grandfather leisurely said while walking towards the sink in our backyards to wash his hands before setting foot inside our traditional house while I was simultaneously eating my bread and putting on shoes before sprinting outside but made a u-turn when I couldn't read our neighbor's house nameplate. 

"Hi Jii-chan, bye Jii-chan" I greeted and bid my farewell at the same time when I saw my grandfather eating the breakfast that I prepared for him since I found my glasses at the dining table. Must be because I removed it earlier when the steam of the chicken soup hindered my vision while I was preparing for Grandpa's breakfast.

"I'm sorry I'm late" I timidly apologized to the teacher when I arrived at school ten minutes late. I wasn't panting but my face is flushed and I was drench in sweat since I practically overtook a car just to get in here.

The teacher just slightly smiled and gestured for me to take my seat but I flinched when I made eye contact with some of my classmates. Others were blushing while avoiding eye contact with me and the others were giving me the death stare.

I just bowed my head while walking towards my seat to avoid eye contact with them before nervously sitting down.

I hope nothing bad happens today.

I happily skip while eating Daifuku as I head home, I have been waiting for class to end just to eat this and I even brought some to Jii-chan just in case he whine for not giving him any. I can see the riverbank in my peripheral view which made the taste of Daifuku more scrumptious 

"Mhmmm~" I closed my eyes and moaned as I taste the familiar red bean paste with its very soft, tender, and chewy texture. "Jii-chan's gonna love this" I smiled as I imagine my grandpa's elated face as I give him this treasure.

"Ahh? I'm sorry" I softly exclaimed when a strong force suddenly hits me while I was in the middle of my daydreaming which made me lose my grip on my daifuku

I bit my lower lip to prevent myself from crying as I comfort myself by saying that Jii-chan's Daikfuku is still fine before looking up at the gigantic guy with a scar on his eyebrow who seems to have pushed me 

"Huh? Whaddya say, you little nerd? Speak louder, I can't hear you" I grip my skirt tightly as I saw his ugly face morphed into something uglier which seems to be impossible but this guy's gotta be built different to have a face like that.

"I... I said I'm sorry" I repeated as I bowed my head down to avoid seeing his face. 

"hUH? Did'ya just give me attitude you Lil bitch?" I flinched as I gripped my skirt tighter hoping that this guy would just go away with just a slap or even a punch since he doesn't look like the type to spare a girl.

"N-No. I'm sorry, I'm sorry" I closed my eyes tightly hoping that this would end sooner if I just apologized but fate seems to have another plan as I hear sets of footsteps walking towards us who seems to be his colleague.
