FINAL CHAPTER

Page 96- _A Muddled Vineyard_

A group of students rushed inside getting seated while others hurried back to their own classes. Confusion set Rin's heart on a deadly pound as she tried to figure out what was going on. Together with her friends, each scampered to their chair. Even though they were short on info, following the other students seemed like the best course of action.

"Did you hear that?, i've taken an interest in them. I always knew they were special," whispers filled the whole classroom with plenty eyes leering at Senami and Akamaru. The boys looked at Ai and Rin for help, but the two little devils looked away enjoying the tension. A chance at teasing some prince charmings, sure they would definitely grab it. Oblivious to the serious atmosphere around, both couldn't hold in their laughter. They laughed at jovial jokes and a low burst of chuckles, but the jolly little event was short lived. Loud sharp footsteps drew in from the hallway until they reached the door.

The whole class suddenly went quiet, face front of a young slim woman clad in a black floral body-con dress and leather black stilettos. Her gorgeous but tight-lipped smile expressed how furious she was, or at least were thoughts bouncing from each student. Everyone stood up for a greeting even though deep down heartbeats were thumping like crazy.

Students..... _Good Morning Ms Toriumi!, pleased to meet you after the long summer holiday!_

Miss Toriumi.... _Thank you, now please sit down_

Class 1-S' homeroom teacher Chinami Toriumi. Rumored to be in her late twenties yet never married. She was generous and sweet, but getting on her bad side was the last thing anyone would ever want. She walked over to the front desk, turned to the back, and began writing something.

"Holiday Assessment," read Rintaro squinting her eyes to get a glimpse at the board since she sat at the back.

Ms Toriumi.... _I would like us to go over the summer break assignments i gave you._

The beautiful lady announced leaving Haruno nothing short of confused. Sure she had done all the stupid homework. But after witnessing the commotion outside and angry look on her teacher, she thought that would take priority as homeroom's first discussion. Unfortunately any hopes of getting to the root cause were crushed by the diligent lady who kept asking questions about what cicadas do during summer. Lost to a void, she decided to disperse the whole thing and focus. But easier said than done. By the time it was lunch break, the only thing trespassing her mind was the earlier on scandal.

She was headed to the convenience store alongside Merumi when her eyes caught glimpse of Kei and Hiro. "Hey!!," she yelled waving her hand until catching up to them.

Takahiro.... _Rinny! how are you?_

Her mind got pulled back before answering oddly normal Hiro.

Rintarõ.... _Eh umm i'm ok thanks._

"Is he over the whole breakdown attitude from the holiday?," her curious mind wondered. And no doubt the boy had changed, or perhaps more precise gone back to his normal happy personality. But it wasn't much of a shock taking into consideration they hadn't seen each other ever since the fireworks festival, him and Kei included. Her mind almost burrowed on the edge of forgetting why she had stopped them. Better her thoughtful friend was there to pitch in.

Merumi.... _So Keisuke, do you know what happened to the media from earlier on?_

Both boys' faces suddenly went pale, and from the looks of it, they had probably forgotten all about it. Hesitancy held a clear pace of his quiet out-spilling thoughts until he finally spoke up.

Keisuke.... _We didn't hear anything and it seems everyone just stopped talking about it. But i know someone we can ask, although i'd rather not._

Rintarõ.... _Well you don't have much of a choice so let's get to it._

Haruno's voice grew loud in an instant and her face became a tad more serious than before. No one knew why or bothered to ask but it was without a doubt the quivering fear inside. She felt responsible for causing the boys to reveal their identities before Dr Akane. Although making quite the effort at finding out, deep down she knew the real reason. An unknown force was pushing every thought outside her head, leaving a single whispering echo. "I'm gonna finish what i started at the festival," it said.
