❛❛ 𝓐nd i'll say "hey"! i'm gonna make it smile, smile, smile away! ❜❜ Sage sings to herself as she skips down the hallways of summerfield. Where was she going? She didn't know herself. Just anywhere where she could talk to someone.

❛❛ 𝓗ey, is this that smiley song? ❜❜ A voice said. Another student walks beside her, which causes her to stop and turn around to see a male student, a tall guy with headphones positioned on his neck and a cap covering half of his face.

𝓐nother student approaches, causing her to wonder how many people heard her sing. As if she'd care anyways. ❛❛ I love Yena! I mean the idol singing smiley, not me! ❜❜

❛❛ 𝑰t is the smiley song! And i'm Sage nice to meet you! ❜❜, Sage says to the male student before turning to the female student, ❛❛ andd i'm gonna take a wild guess and say your name is Yena! ❜❜ Yena nodded in response.

❛❛ 𝑰m Kenshin, nice to meet you too. ❜❜ introduced the male student. After they'd all become friends, they all skipped off on their way back to the hall. The two smiley female students, hand in hand, taking the lead with a chill Kenshin following behind. ❛❛ Nemonemo nemonemo sign! ❜❜ sung Sage as they skipped. ❛❛ Spotify loves that song! I do too so i won't complain. ❜❜ chirped an excited Yena. ❛❛ My theme song! ❜❜ squeaked Sage. Sage paused, lost in thought for a moment. ❛❛ No! Smiley actually! ❜❜

𝓐s the trio made their way through the halls they encountered another student. A male student, probably lost but his expression not displaying it.
❛❛ How to make an entrance into this chaotic place? ❜❜
Kenshin nodded from behind, agreeing with the new guys question or just looking from an escape from the chaotic girls.

❛❛ 𝓢ing! Hello by Joy! So you can say hello to all of us! ❜❜ Sage says with a smile, proud of her song choice.

❛❛𝓑ut i'm not Joy, i'm Asahi. ❜❜ replied a monotone Asahi.

❛❛𝓑e sorrow then! ❜❜ spat out Sage, crossing her arms.

❛❛ 𝓽hat's what you what? ❜❜ Asahi said, a slight bit of emotion finally evident in his voice. The hint of emotion brought Sage back to her usual happy attitude . She unfolded her arms and smiled.

❛❛ 𝑰f you want it, i do! Donut worry! That's my new life quote! ❜❜ Sage said proud of her new quote that came out of the donut dilemma from earlier.

❛❛ 𝓐nyone asked? ❜❜ And just like that. Asahi was back. This first encounter really gave Sage a full overview of his personality. A normal person but be put off by his grumpiness but Sage just felt even more of a need to be his best friend.

❛❛ 𝑰 did! In my head soo you couldn't hear it! ❜❜ Sage replies, pointing to her head with a smile.

𝓐sahi  rolled his eyes, done with this conversation and Sage's strange attitude. He was about to leave when Kenshin spoke.

❛❛ 𝓗ow to make an entry is exactly what i'm wondering. ❜❜

𝓢age turned around to face him, ❛❛ Haven't you already made one though? ❜❜. Kenshin runs a hand through his hair before replying ❛❛ Nah, I just met my ex, that's not an entry. ❜❜ Sage thinks for a moment before coming up with a new crazy idea. ❛❛ Make one now! ❜❜

❛❛ 𝓦hat do i do? Sing and dance? ❜❜ Kenshin said sarcastically. Though Sage is the type of person you really can't use sarcasm around, she'll take it seriously. She pushed Kenshin into the middle of the corridor and took out her water bottle, pretending it's a microphone.

❛❛ 𝓗elloo! Welcome to the annual Summerfield talent show. Please give a warm welcome to our first contestant, something Kenshin! Take it away! ❜❜

❛❛ 𝓗elp, I was joking. ❜❜ said Kenshin, saying himself from this embarrassing moment. Sage replies with an 'oh', putting the bottle back in her pocket.

❛❛ 𝒌enshin? You japanese? ❜❜ Asahi asked, wondering what he did enrolling at this school after seeing such a random act in the corridors.

❛❛ 𝓨eah? ❜❜

❛❛ 𝓽hank god, there's other japanese people here. ❜❜ Asahi said with a sigh, running a hand through his hair.

❛❛ 𝓨ou japanese too? ❜❜ Kenshin asked to continue the dry conversation. Asahi responded with a nod.

❛❛ 𝑰m japanese too! Well, half Japanese! ❜❜ Yena said, a saviour to this dry conversation that Sage couldn't bear to hear.

❛❛ 𝑰m yappanese! ❜❜ Sage piped in after seeing her new bestie talk too. It was something she saw online and decided to put it to the test in real life though all she got back were confused glances.

❛❛ 𝓦hat's that nationality? ❜❜ Asahi asked, raising an eyebrow. Sage looked clueless for a few seconds, not expecting him to elaborate. ❛❛ I'm from yapper islands! ❜❜ She quickly responds.

❛❛ 𝓦here's it? ❜❜  Sage looked at him with an annoyed gaze for a moment before returning to her default smiley face, ❛❛ The yap ocean! ❜❜

𝓐fter Sage's silent prayers that this conversation would end, Jihoon showed up in the corridors with a happy ❛❛ Hi guys! I'm Jihoon! ❜❜ There was a lot of introductions to do on this day. A lot of new names and faces to learn or maybe not for the first time.

❛❛ 𝓗i! I'm Yena! ❜❜

❛❛ 𝓽hat's funny, you share a name with my friend! ❜❜ Jihoon says with a smile, obviously not thinking that they actually know each other or anything.

❛❛ 𝓨eah? Because you and my friend share a name! Twins! ❜❜ Nana stated. It was obvious that if these two didn't know each other and weren't friends already, they'd be friends.

❛❛ 𝓦ait a minute! Is your name, by any chance, Kang Yena? ❜❜ Finally something wise came out of these two kids minds. For a minute, shock passed on their faces before it transformed into excitement. ❛❛ OMG! NANA, ITS ME! ❜❜

❛❛ So you're Jihoon? HIII! ❜❜ Nana replied, the excitement on her face matched Jihoon's. They really were best friends. ❛❛ I wasn't sure if I was tripping or not! But omg! I'VE MISSED YOU! ❜❜

❛❛ ME TOOO! ❜❜ And the rest of the group was left speechless between 'awh's and 'why the fuck are they screaming's. It was clear these two had a lot of talking about the past to do while someone else could handle the future for them.
