[h3]Shizuka Otonashi || Warakuma High, Classroom 1-1 || April 20 MON: Morning[/h3]
Same as all the other classes, the announcement about Matthew Harvester's return was informed to the class by the homeroom teacher. Students started to make a commotion, gossips about possible serial kidnappings, whispers being glad about their senpai being back, and the like. Even Shizuka's seatmate and friend whispered, [b]"Isn't it scary how the recent kidnappings were all middle school students like us? We better be more careful out there, Shizuka-chan!"[/b] Before the raven haired student could reply to her friend, the teacher started to quiet down the class to begin their lesson for the morning.

The class dismissal bell rang throughout the campus as Shizuka arranged her books neatly into her school bag. An offer to hang out at a newly opened fast food place was suggested by her small circle of friends but as usual, the shy student politely rejected the offer with the reason of having some sort of appointment she had to attend to. This '[i]appointment[/i]' that she always had to attend to after class referred to the part time job at the cosplay cafe. While she felt guilty this had to be hidden away even from her closest friends, she was always afraid of how they would respond in terms of finding out about her true passion.

This was evident if one would observe her during the days that the Anime/Manga Club was active, as she would slow down her walking pace while passing the club room and she would longingly gaze toward the room's windows. It happens to be Monday today, one of the active days of the club, and just as usual, Shizuka does the same routine today as well. [color=violet][i]'I... don't have the courage to reveal it yet.'[/i][/color], she thought to herself as the female student walks away from the scene with a melancholic expression.

A pair of blonde twintails, sparkling blue eyes, and face full of life. This was what Shizuka, specifically [i]"Shizu-chan"[/i], appeared as currently, after a change out of uniform and placing of wig and contact lenses at the public bathroom in Warakuma mall. She was careful to this extent in concealing her identity, she'll never know if a classmate or a student at the school would catch her entering the cafe after all. The set of wigs and contact lenses were varied each time to match the theme for the week and for this week, it involved French maids and butlers with guns like some sort of mafia. Not like the civilians would see the currently blond girl in that silly costume, not until the cafe anyway. Some of these themes were questionable at times but the customers weirdly appreciate them either way.

While quickly pacing onto the direction of the cosplay cafe, her uncovered eyes sight a male, presumably of similar age group, in a tattered shirt. Her seamstress side screamed at her to go over there and offer to fix up the barely usable shirt, which she actually acted on, approaching him with no hesitance like a whole different person from the ordinary Shizuka. [color=violet]"Hello there, would you perhaps be interested in me helping you repair your shirt? Not to be offensive about it but I have quite a talent in sewing, you see, so it'd be no problem for me to make it more presentable."[/color]
