As soon as I got out of the stall, a light blue-haired girl came into the bathroom. I know her very well; she’s my second best friend next to Haruka, Miyu Greer. Unlike Haruka or practically anyone else, I can talk to her about casual fun topics such as Quantum Mechanics, Fuka’s temperature and precipitation, Metaphysics, Chaos Theory, and sometimes shopping. When I got up to the sink I started to chat with her.
“How are you doing Miyu-chan?”
“I’m affirmative. The temperature is 26 degrees Celsius (that’s about 78 degrees Fahrenheit) and it’s at the beginning of November. There are no precipitation coming for the next four days, the tasks at church are running smoothly, and Alyssa’s happiness status is satisfactory. Life could not be better.”
“I wish I could say the same,” I accidentally blurted out.
“Why, what seems to be your dilemma?”
“Nothing really important,” I said as I tried to cover up my sadness quickly. Miyu wasn’t fooled one bit.
“Something is wrong. My infrared vision shows some recent activity near you tear ducts,” meaning she knew that I just finished crying. “You can inform me of your situation.”
“I found out who Haruka-chan’s secret admire is,” I said as tears started to stream down my face again. She knew already how I felt about Haruka when she once analyzed my body temperature during a time I was physically close to Haruka. Plus she saw me checking Haruka out a few times.
“I see, but something else must have happen. It makes no logical sense to be angry just because you have knowledge of the secret admire”
“Yes, there sure was. The secret admirer actually kissed Haruka-chan, and I mean an actual French kiss! And Haruka-chan didn’t even bother to resist”
I saw Miyu’s eyes jumped a bit, but she quickly returned back to her stoic self and said “So I see the secret admire used a straightforward approach. Can you disclose the secret admirer’s name?”
“Yumemiya Arika”
Her eyes jumped once again when I said that.
“That girl? Oh my…”
That right there told me she doesn’t have a positive view of Arika.
“So you do know her?” I said.
“Affirmative. Her mother name is Sayers Lena and she works with SEARRS, but only the retail store front. She is not involved in any of their background scenes or schemes from what I can confirm. Her father is a biologist named Yumemiya Shiro. As for Arika-san herself, her IQ is only 90, barely above retardation, which perplex me since both of her parents are very intelligent people.”
“Well genetics work in a funny way Miyu-chan. It’s more like a crap shoot than strategic planning.”
“From all the analysis I’ve done on humans I am in total agreement with your statement. I must note that my information is somewhat archaic, since I am no longer in employment with SEARRS.”
“But you still got that lifetime 20% discount on all products purchased from any Searrs stores worldwide?”
“Absolutely, I can’t live without it!” she responded back with a smile.
“Cool, that means I can still get that skirt I had my eyes on for a while.” However my mind went back to Haruka, as much as I didn’t want it to, “Still, I can’t believe I lost Haruka-chan that way, however I got to find a way to get her back”
“Well according to my data, you and Haruka were never in a romantic relationship.”
“I know that, but now I need to find a way to win her heart and finally become my lover.”
Miyu is an android, so emotional response is not her specialty. Yet I knew she was trying to be sympathetic to me when she said stoically “I wish I could assist you in your romantic dilemma, but since romance is not a logical concept nor is it my specialty I cannot give you expert advice on the subject.”
That was a true fact, since she’s in the same boat that I am. She has her eyes on one girl, Alyssa Searrs, whom she protects since her days at SEARRS. The problem is that she’s only 10 years old. What am I talking about? This is anime, having sex with 10 year olds is ok, if not, rather encouraged as sick as it sounds. But Miyu is no hentai freak, she would rather wait until Alyssa is mature enough to pursue her. Funny thing though is on her Microsoft Outlook, she had April 1, 2010 marked. The note on it said “Introduce Alyssa to womanhood.” I’m not going to get into more details…
“I understand it’s not your specialty. However thanks for listening to me.”
“No problem, but right now we need to be expedient in getting to our Calculus Honors class, we have approximately 47 seconds.”
“Right! Let’s get going!” I said and we immediately left the bathroom heading straight to our class.

Back in the office, Fumi was looking at Arika’s papers. She didn’t like what she was reading. Her grades were even worse than an American public high school student. Mashiro was with her, without the wheelchair as she was looking outside through the window. She came back from the library gate to assist Fumi in her duties. Fumi is still the Director of the school and pretty much runs the school while Mashiro has taken the role as her advisor.
“Did you really want to come back to assist me?”
“Absolutely, do you know what it’s like to deal with Nagi all day long, let alone for 300 years?” she gasped.
“I don’t even want to imagine. Are you sure that we want her in our school? Her grades are atrocious and she makes Jessica Simpson look like Marie Curie! I mean this girl hasn’t past Algebra, did a book report on the Three Stooges, and it was rumoured that last year during Christmas time, when she heard that Christmas was around the corner, she went looking for it! Do we really want her in our school?” Fumi questioned to Mashiro, looking at her to reply back.
“I think she’s perfect. She’s what we need to beat out Ototachibana Academy for this year’s overall league standings. She lettered in eight sports back in Windbloom Academy. She was last year’s MVP in Volleyball, Soccer, and Baseball for her former school’s league. This is useful since Ototachibana is killing us this year in Women’s Volleyball and Soccer. She’s also quiet good in Track and Field and Tennis. Hopefully with her we can finally beat their Track and Field and Tennis stars. We got enough Einstein’s in our schools. We need some athletes to balance the school.” The real reason why she accepted her registration was that because Mashiro has the hots for Arika. Her deepest sexual fantasies of Arika included her wearing their gym uniform.
“Enough Einsteins, are you kidding me? We got more than enough jocks to make the Alpha-Betas proud! We got Natsuki-san, Tate-san, Mikoto-san, and many others. Plus with Mikoto-san, we are killing everybody in Kendo.”
“That’s true but I still think she will be a great asset to the school.” She said while thinking in her head “A great asset she sure has!” “Plus from what I’ve heard from her old school, there’s no question that she’s part of the family, so she’ll feel home here.”
“That’s another reason why I don’t want her here. Our reputation as the school for lesbians is infamous. People call this place the ‘Yuri academy’ or the ‘school of Sappho’. Every time I go to a conference or meeting, whenever I tell people I work for Fuka, I get snickers! Do you know that we are the butt of the private school system here in Japan? Do you know how many women hit on me when I tell them I’m with Fuka? And do you know how many men get turned off when I tell them about Fuka? They immediately walk away from me!” Fumi finished with a frustrated look on her face.
“Men getting turn off because they think you’re a lesbian? Are you sure about that?” Mashiro looked at her with a questionable look.
“Well someone of them try to get me to do a threesome with another girl! But unlike most of the girls in this place, I’m not into girls!” she explained in frustration.
“I understand your frustration and our school’s reputation may be true, but we are also the innovators and the most progressive of the schools. We have more international students than any other school in Japan, especially Ototachibana. We got more types of classes than anyone else since we’ve adopted the Western way of having the students go to different classes. Our students do better than any school in Japan when it comes to History, English, and World Events. So if they want to laugh at us, well that’s fine with me. We will still be the #1 school in Japan while they are still laughing.” They finally won the best school in Japan spot after Ototachibana held that spot for the previous five years.
Fumi agreed with her in reluctance, but she added “Okay, well let’s see how things turn out for her. If she does poorly in her schoolwork, I will have a tutor assigned to her. Do you at least agree with that?”
“That’s fine with me.” She willingly agreed. She already knew who it might be and she didn’t have to look too far to find her…
