I never thought I'd continue to write this story…anyway La Corda isn't mine.
"…"
Hino gulped nervously. She stared at the girl in front her who quietly took care of her bruised fingers. It was only a small accident that threw her into this awkward situation.
FLASHBACK.
Hino's walk to her school was complete silence. She was lost in her thoughts, thinking about her accompaniment. 'What should I do? I don't know anyone who is willingly to…' She thought for a while before deciding, 'I'll try to ask Tsukimori if she can help.' She quickened her pace, heading towards the Music Building. It was a good thing she woke up early or she wouldn't have made it here. Her lips curved up into a smile when she noticed a particular blue-haired girl walking toward the backyard. "Tsukimori!" She called. The other violinist stopped in her tracks and turned around. Hino was about to head towards her when she saw a potted-plant fall from above. "Abunai!" She yelled as she pushed Tsukimori away. Seconds passed, the sound of a shattering pot was heard. The red-haired violinist let out a sigh and quickly withdrew her hand from the ground. "Ouch, I did it…" She blew her fingers, trying to reduce the pain from the ground. She startled when the other suddenly pulled her fingers towards her. "We should quickly tend it. Let's go to infirmary," said the bluenette as she dragged Hino to the infirmary.
END FLASHBACK.
And there they were. Sitting quietly as Tsukimori tended Hino's wound.
The Ms. Seiso was a silent girl, so it was normal for her not to speak a word. Hino too dared not.
"Done." Hino tilted her head in surprise when the bluenette let go of her hand.
"A-Ah, Arigatou." Hino thanked quietly.
"Don't sweat it. It was after all, by all means, my fault." The bluenette replied calmly.
Hino tried to recall about the accident before. Was there any evidence of her doing that? She thought. Tsukimori was with her when the potted-plant fell from above. And Hino… DOESN'T believe in supernatural things.
Oh, wait… She did see some girls making their escape.
She stared at Tsukimori's back before asking, "Uhm… do you have…" She paused then continues, "…some problem with them?"
"No." Tsukimori replied as calm as ever.
"They do though." She added.
"Why?" The red-haired girl asked again.
"Don't you see? They're the members of Yunoki-senpai's bodyguard or what-so-ever-it-calls." The other violinist replied with irritation.
"That's why I asked, why they do that to YOU?" Hino asked in curiosity.
"Saa… with me titled as the Ms. Seiso and Yunoki-senpai as the Mr. Seiso, there's no event where we shouldn't be together." Tsukimori explained sighing.
"Oh, that's why you two seem to appear, walk and dance together when there's an event. No wonder." The red-haired violinist said, finally ring a bell.
"Yeah, as much as I like it." The blue-haired violinist muttered sarcastically.
"Won't Tsuchiura-kun be jealous?"
"Tsuchiura?" Tsukimori frowned when suddenly Tsuchiura was being brought up, "No. He won't."
Silence again filled the room as Hino had nothing to say.
"Anyway…" Tsukimori broke the silence, turning to face her, "What do you want?"
"Eh?" Hino perplexed.
"You called me before the pot fell, right?"
"Ah, Jitsu wa…" Hino started as both of them headed out of infirmary.
"Accompanist?"
"Yeah…I've been wondering if you know someone who willingly to accompany me."
"Hmmm…" Tsukimori thought for a while before nodding, "Yeah, I think I know."
"Really?" Hino chirped happily.
"Yes…"
"HEY! WHAT ARE TWO DOING? THE CLASSES ARE ALREADY STARTED!"
Both of the violinists jumped when they heard the teacher's yell. They turned abruptly, ready to take their punishment.
However their frightened faces were turned into widened-eyes of shock when they saw their grinning sensei.
"Nante ne."
"Kanazawa-sensei!"
"You surprised me…" Hino let out a sigh, trying to calm her heart.
"It's not nice of you to skip class, girls." Kanazawa scolded rubbing the bluenette's hair, which made her annoyed.
"We have free class this morning, beside we were from infirmary." The bluenette explained as she released her hair from her sensei's hand.
"Someone got hurt?"
"Yes." Hino nodded.
"If not, then why else did we go there?" Tsukimori added sarcastically.
Hino and Kanazawa sweatdropped. Tsukimori Rin was always polite, except for certain condition… her dark mood.
"Ahh..." Kanazawa rubbed his head lazily, "Anyway, the first selection's theme has been decided."
"Eh? What's it, Kanazawa-sensei?" Both girls asked eagerly.
"The Beginning."
