"Haha."

Akio laughed at Sen's reaction.

"It was cool and all but we can't do that today without being busted. C'mon, let's go to my tree, I can show you my new instrument."

They walked over to the same tree Akio sat at every morning. No one dared to go near.

When he laughed at him. The young male looks at him with a cute childish pout on his face. "For the record, you started it." he told him. Avoiding eye contact with him. As he follows him to the tree. Some of the other students, both female and males. Saw that Sen was allowed near the tree while others weren't. Making them a little unhappy with his actions. But Sen didn't notice them or their glares. Once he sat down, the pout vanished and wonder what the instrument looks like.

It was small, so small it fitted in his bag. It was in a zipped case.

"It's called a Ukelele, from the east, it's a minature guitar." said Akio, placing it on his lap.

He looks at it and eyes it for a bit. "Oh wow! It's so cool." he said. Then he looks at Akio. "So know any song?" he asked.

"It plays just like a normal guitar, except the timbre is jollier and brighter. Do you have any requests Mr. Sen? Did you look at my MySpace?"

Sen listen to him as he explains how it works. As for the My Space page. "I'm sorry, I was so busy with studying, that I never got around to it. I'm sorry." he said looking sad and feeling a bit guilty.

Akio seranaded with his Ukelele, as others turned round, talking amongst themselves. Normally people would gather up close, but today was not the case.

"You wanna go on the Ukelele Sen?"

He looks at Akio and shakes his head. "No thanks. Today I'll listen. Besides, I want to hear you play." he told him.

Akio crossed his legs and played along, and Sen would happily sit and watch for minutes on end, swaying a litte. Akio could see that in the corner of his eye that Mai and Sara were on the other side of the green, giving him dirty looks. He could see their pink bows in their hair.

As suddenly as it had started, the bell rung and break was over.

"Ok Sen, it's gym. Let's go."

As he listens to him play his ukulele. It was nice sounding. He closed his eyes for a moment and picture himself somewhere that wasn't school. He smiled happily, not knowing that Sara and Mai were close by. Glaring at them. They were not happy with him getting close to their school idol. They thought it was unfair that he was allowed to be by Akio's tree which they tried for a long time to get near to.

As the school bell rang and it was time to head to gym. Sen nods his head and stands up. As he did so, he felt something hard on the back of his head. Looking around he saw a rock that wasn't there and looks around seeing that there was no one else around. He rubs where it had hot and sees that his friend was leaving. He jog up to him, before he started to walk. Still rubbing the back of his head. For it still hurts.
