Chapter Text
Cherry blossom trees decorated the whole road here while he's on the bus. The experience was even more vivid as he walked on his feet. Pink petals and a calm breeze brushed on his cheek
It's oddly peaceful
He never realized the world was way broader than the giant white facility he used to woke up in
Now, when he open his eyes, the world is filled with colors
..and freedom
After that, the freshmen were guided to the school hall and greeted by the student council president's speech as the upperclassmen representative
They went to their respective classes. The student in his class started an introduction session, and then his turns arrive..
Before he introduce himself, he thought of some scenarios. He considers pulling a joke and put up an energic character, but — nah, it would creeped them out — he completely threw the idea in the garbage.
He also tried to strike some small conversation with this Horikita-person. A row of coincidence lead him to met her in various places. He tried everytime, but his effort was almost in vain as his advance were rejected most of the time. Honestly, it was his bad luck. If he tried to talk with anyone else, the result would be at least.. slightly better.
It is. The encounter with other students like Ichinose Honami is the proof, but he would never knew. What everyone considered as 'common interaction between human' never really registered in his memory
The day is coming to an end. He get back to the dorm. There, a room of his own awaits, however, the luxury was not the room itself, but the peace and privacy.
.

As he going to sleep, he recalled today's events.
The turns of event is what you could called ordinary, nothing actually that stood out
..at least for other people
For him, everything is a new experience
Interact with peers — in normal environment, strolling around the school, go shopping and buy necessities, etc, etc
This peaceful life is everything. It is what he longed for years
He can't helped but try to asses the whole information he got thus far. The whole private point thing, no matter how you think, is suspicious. Also he tried to recalling his classmates other than the stood out Hirata, Kushida, Karuizawa, Sudo, and also Horikita. He remembered some of the rest, but not enough input to conclude anything.. that would be useful in the future
Really, it's an old habit of him
He also forgot to use the blanket but now he's too lazy to get up. Never mind, the cold isn't even that bothering him. Anyway, habits die hard.

Morning arrived
He wake up in his room
.
.
Morning greeted him as he got out of the dorm. Several students also leave their room to go to school. Some were.. still asleep in their bed, probably.
Turns out this elite school is not that different from any other school if you exclude the curriculum, point currency distribution, facilities — that are beyond good, and also special exams and grading system, etc.
Bunch of various people gathered here. From a model student, ordinary — or mediocre ones who doesn't stand out, or choosed to not to — to deliquents.
Some were turns out crazier than the rest, with those brain of criminal's. But these were something he would find out more later.
Anyway he consciously take the scene in front of him as he walk. The morning rays seeping through the sakura trees. As it gradually gotten brighter, blue shadow softly cast on the pave road. At this moment, the view of walking among the other student s in the morning was burned through his eyes.
Sure, the air was rather cold, but the sight is worth the effort of leaving early for school. Ayanokouji stopped for a while and looking up. Blue is painted across the sky. Beautiful is the word, but he never knew
