Two

PE time. The subject Siren hates the most. She doesn't enjoy accomplishing actual work such that when she was a child; she wished she turned into a teddy bear so she will not need to move and take care of errands at their home.

They are outside the school building, at the field where they are under the scorching warmth of the sun which made Siren more irate. She remained idle there while Lea and Hana do practically everything.

'Shit, I can't bear it any longer.' She lets out a loud yawn before finally deciding to leave.

"Siren, where are you going?" - Hana

"To rest." She replied without looking back. She went back to the classroom to sleep there yet got irritated when she saw somebody was already there. To worsen the situation, her classmate was going to take off her shirt, making her freeze on the spot. She doesn't have the foggiest idea who that is because her back's facing her. Siren quietly swallows.

The other student must've felt her presence and turned around.

It was Peach with her PE shirt canvassed in mud. She flashes a grin after seeing her.

"Siren."

She looks away, embarrassed. "W-what do you think you're doing?"

Peach takes a glance at her innocently, not getting what she means. "Oh. As you can see, my shirt is dirty so I will change it. What about you?"

"Why do you ask?" She replied in an irate voice. Peach gazes at her and then smiles.

"Are you... peeking at me?" When she didn't answer, Peach's grin grew even wider. "I didn't realize you had it in you, Siren."

Siren could feel the blood rushing through her face. "Shut up! As if I'll do that." She secretly peeks at Peach's body and jeers. "Your body's not even that pretty."

She escaped the classroom and fled as quickly as possible until she arrives at the old building's infirmary. She should've chosen to rest here instead of going to the homeroom maybe then she would have not met Peach.

She swiftly lies down on the bed, gasping hard.

'Shit. Why can't I erase it from my mind?'

Images of Peach going to take off her clothes flooded her brain. She moaned quietly.

'Stop thinking about it!'

Out of nowhere, she could visualize Peach gradually moving towards her, reaching her face, and calling her name enticingly. She jolts up in bed in shock.

'W-what... What was that?!'

-

Because of that incident, Siren has been cranky the whole day getting more irritated that Peach is sitting next to her.

'Why does she have to be my seatmate?'

As if on cue, Peach turns her direction and grins at her. She frowns and looks away.

"Get your homework done, alright? That is all for today, See you tomorrow."

The students started leaving the homeroom one by one. Hana approaches her.

"Siren! Let's go!" Siren nods at her as she quietly puts her things in her bag.

"Are you alright? You're so grumpy today." - Lea

Siren stayed quiet until she was done and walks away, leaving the two behind. Lea and Hana follow her cluelessly.

"Is it the time of the month?" Hana murmurs enough for Siren to hear. She glared at her so Hana looks away and murmurs once more. "Yeah, it must be."

They will head out in a different direction after leaving the school with Lea and Hana's home close to one another.

"Bye, Siren!" Hana waves at her. Lea does as well. Siren would just nod and wave at them prior to leaving. The two watch her as she walks away.

"I wonder what happened that made her like that? She's been like that the entire day." - Hana.

Lea nods. "After that PE class, her mood turned sour."

They will then, see Peach strolling past them heading a similar way where Siren is.

"I didn't know they live close to each other," Hana remarked.

"You didn't know because you never pay attention to your surroundings. We should go, It's already late."

-

Siren could feel someone following her so she walks quicker but stops suddenly and turns around just to see Peach behind her.

"Siren!"

"Are you following me?"

"Ha?" She shakes her head. "No? We live in the same neighborhood."

'Since when?'

She narrows her eyes, looking suspiciously at her.

"Stay where you are."

Peach nods in confusion. Siren gradually turn her back and walk away.

It wasn't even that long when she heard Peach yelling.

"Siren! Can I walk now!?"

She jumped in surprise and balls her clenched hand in the disturbance.

'She' s really annoying.'

She takes a deep sigh and pivots. Peach is still in the same spot where she told her to stop.

"Do whatever you want!" She yelled back prior to pivoting once more.

"OK, Thank you!" Peach yelled again.

'Just ignore her, Siren, and go.'

-

Siren will stop at a playground and under the slide are a medium-sized box and a puppy whom she is visiting for a long while presently.

She crouches as she goes after him. "Hi. How are you?" The pup moves toward her and sways his tail in amusement. She can't resist the urge to chuckle at his response.

"Amazing. You know brownie as well?" She nearly jumps in shock when she heard that voice. Peach hunches down alongside her.

"So you're the one giving her food. Hi, brownie." Peach grins as she pets the canine.

"Why are you naming him Brownie? Can't you see he is black and white?" She asks annoyingly as she looks at the pup's black and white fur. "Also, he's a male!"

"Really? Then what should we name him then?"

"Whatever." She surrenders and holds up.

"Whatever? That is an awful name." Peach murmurs.

'She' s annoying.'

Peach gazes toward her when she stood up. "Oh? Where are you going?"

"Home." She replied and started walking away.

"OK. See you tomorrow!"

Siren will disregard her while Peach keeps on petting the puppy.

"Brownie, huh?"
