It all started one day, on the first day of the 2nd year of highschool. Asa Mitaka was expecting to meet some of her new classmates. And possibly make some friends out of it. She was a shy girl, who kept everything to herself. Nobody really tried talking with her, and so she earned the nickname "The quiet girl".

"I hope I can make atleast one friend this year.." Asa sighed, contemplating if her dream would become a reality.

As Asa was walking up the stairs to her class, she couldn't help but notice the boy following her

"Huh? That's strange..." Asa mumbled to herself, it really was odd that a boy was following her. Nobody really noticed her

The boy running up to Asa was none other than Denji, a boy who was a goofball and always causing havoc! He was now trying to get her attention by calling out for her.

"Hey you! Girl with the ponytails! Wait up!!" Denji said breathless after running up to her for the past 10 minutes.

As Asa turned around, she looked Denji up and down, he had fair blonde hair, brown eyes, pale skin and a smile all the way to his ears. As for Denji, he was confused as to why she was looking at him so judgementally

"Oh, hello.. You seem familliar.. Do I know you?" Asa asked curiously but nervously at the sudden conversation he had started with her.

Denji looked at Asa with a grin on his face, like he just planned a prank on his friend, he took a few steps forward before stopping, and spoke once more.

"You might recognize me from your Math class! I wanted to ask if you wanted to friends. I have noticed that you're very quiet!" Denji said politely, he really wanted to try making friends with her. He kinda felt bad no one has tried to before him.

Asa took a few steps back, she was pretty bad at talking with anyone., she looked down at the ground then back at Denji and spoke.

"A friend..?" Asa said to herself. 

"Yea sure.. I'd really like that, it would be nice to finally have someone to talk too... What was your name again..?| Asa said a bit excited but nervous at the same time, her dream became a reality and she was very happy.

Denji proudly let out sigh of relief, then looked down at Asa. He was grinning and Asa could notice he was happy she accepted his request.

"I am Denji! What about you! What's your name?" Denji asked excited about his new friendship with Asa. He wished from that moment on they would never fight over anything silly.

Asa looked up at Denji a bit overwhelmed at making eye contact with, but even that wont stop her from trying to introduce herself.

"My.. My name is Asa Mitaka.." Asa was a bit hesitant at first, but she still said her name. Fighting her social anxiety away, she kinda envied Denji for not being shy like her.

The bell rang and Asa abruptly looked away from him, moving away from him a bit before informing him that she will be leaving for class.

"Denji.. I will be taking my leave... The bell has rung." Asa said calmly before walking off and leaving Denji to run off to his own class.

As Asa left for her first period of the year. She couldn't help but think about how her dream became true. She FINALLY made a friend, and he was pretty cool.

As she sat down at her seat, the teacher started taking attendance.

"Yoshida?" "Here."......... "Nayuta?" "Here."....

As class ended, Asa went up to the rooftop to have lunch by herself, as she sat down and opened her lunch box, a voice called out for her.

" Hey.. Asa right? Yoshida asked standing next to her. " You seem lonely, want me to join you?" He asked with a smirk on his face.

Asa looked at him, thought for a bit before replying.

" Yea sure.. I don't see why not. "

As time passed, Denji was now outside of the school gates hoping to walk home with ASa.

As Denji saw Asa he ran up to her.

"HEY! ASAAA!!! HEYY!! He yelled, running as fast as he could to her. "Slow down!"

"OH, it's you.. What is it?" Asa asked monotone, looking at him.

"Would you like to walk home together?"

"Hm? Oh sure.."

As Denji was walking with ASa, he bluntly told her.

"Asa, do you want to go at the aquarium this Saturday? I thought it would be fun for the two of us."

"I'll text you if i'm free okay?" Asa was happy he invited her.
