Taking it easy

 It was a bit of a pain, but Ethan hurried to the school because he had no idea when he would find Emily. So, it was better to look for her early on, considering that time in Meizibio passed ten times faster.

"One year ago, I probably would die of embarrassment just by staying here with a letter in hand and waiting for a girl," Ethan said while looking at the sky in the middle of that plaza. "Life really is full of surprises."

 It was 07:30 AM, so few students were appearing. Classes only started at eight, and given that it was boring to wait at the main building unless you were a boy who enjoyed the simulator quite a bit like Ethan, there was no reason to come so earlier. Still, Emily was a serious student, so she appeared quite soon. As expected, she frowned when she saw Ethan walking toward him.

"You have come pretty early, and you aren't playing at the simulator," Emily said. "I wonder if it is going to rain today."
