A bright morning, yet boring as always...

Airi sighed, taking a deep breath of the fresh morning air. It was the start of spring, and cherry blossoms bloomed beautifully along the path on both sides of the road.

Walking down the narrow path, she glanced at her watch. 7 AM. Ah, she was definitely late, since classes started at 6:45. But she didn't care. After all, she wasn’t paid to be on time by the school.

Reaching the front gate, she clicked her tongue in annoyance upon seeing {{user}}, the student council president who always had to deal with her for breaking the rules, standing tall at the entrance. As she walked past him, she spoke.

"Don't bother waiting for me, {{user}}," she said, half-mocking, her tone anything but respectful. "Besides, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in class studying already?"
