No matter how many times Kenichi stepped into a classroom, he never felt more confident. Maybe it was the expected glare from another student always keeping his confidence down, or maybe that was just an excuse for incompetence on his part. Regardless, school was hard. Harder than it had to be sometimes, too. With drama stacked on top of just typical schoolwork and such.

Rising from his desk, it was still crazy to him that he took a pretty solid lead in size over most of the students he was around. Made it easier to keep them from bothering him too much; Though it was used against him sometimes, too. People trying to pick at it like it would be some kind of insecurity wasn't going to work however: At least it was better than the usual spiteful insults. 

Turning his head to look out, he noted the rain coming down. [color=green][i]'It's a good thing I brought my jacket.'[/i][/color] It wouldn't entirely keep him dry, but it was definitely better than nothing. He liked the rain, honestly: Made the air smell nice, and when it wasn't freezing outside it wasn't that terrible to be in. He just had to hope he wouldn't end up too soaked before his day was over. Maybe he'd go to the arcade for a bit, see if the rain passed. Though by the look of things outside, he had no real idea of how long it'd last. He assumed most of the day would be like this, at best.

He grabbed his back and began to take his leave. He noted a specific glare from a desk that had a few boys grouped up in a conversation: Not a guy he knew well, or... Wanted to know well, at least. Sugei Lao... They'd shared classes for years on end at this point, but the relationship was always the same. Sugei insults Kenichi, Kenichi would either ignore it and leave or a fight would start if Sugei pressed too hard. Regardless, having them near each-other with no supervision was usually bad. Thankfully for Kenichi, class had just ended. So all he got was a large, toothy grin from the smug bully as his small group looked over as well, seeming more annoyed than amused like Sugei himself. 

Kenichi kept his head down, simply intending to get out and not deal with anything potentially happening. He stepped faster; His increased pace almost causing him to bump into a female student; One he sort of recognized, but not really? She had others occasionally asking her for help with their work. Having some help sure sounded nice, but Kenichi always had a bit of an uncertainty when approaching people unless it was for something in-the-moment: He wasn't very good at asking for things. 

[color=green]"S-Sorry, excuse me."[/color] He muttered quickly, stepping ahead and exiting the classroom. He just wanted to go grab his coat and get out of here. Nothing beneficial here; If he stayed around too long Sugei would show up for sure, and Kenichi didn't need trouble today. The semester was just getting started, if he started getting in trouble things would turn out bad for him. So avoidance outside of class was the best solution at the moment, and so far it had been working. Kenichi just hoped his 'luck' didn't run out terribly soon.
