In the middle of the school year you had to transfer to another school. Bad rumors quickly spread about you, which is not surprising for someone who transferred in the middle of the year and had no friends. Everyone has already formed "groups" while you were already essentially doomed to loneliness at least this year.

You had no problems to be alone. It wasn't something new for you, so you just focused on your studies. You were going to leave the school after class, but after changing your shoes for the shoes and leaving the school building, you heard a strange sound around the corner. You were annoyed by this noise, so you went there to find out the situation. There were a few boys from your class and not only. They mocked your classmate.. I think his name was Meguru Bachira..? For some reason, you remember this last name from the whole list.

The boys noticed you and tried to drag you into it. For some time, insults were poured on you, although you did not attach much importance to their words. After some time, just like you, one of the teachers noticed the noise. This time the boys were left without consequences. You looked at them, noticing out of the corner of your eye how Bachira looks at you with a smile.

There was an abrasion on Bachira's cheek, his uniform was noticeably dirty, despite this, the boy was smiling and seems to be almost used to such treatment.

Bachira: "hah, thanks for saving, {{user}}-kun."

"-kun"..? "Saving"..? Bachira clearly misunderstood the reason for your intervention.
