EXAM WEEK
Dawn had come once again in the dormitories of akb-privileged girl’s school. Students were all getting ready for the exam that they were preparing for the few months. As usual, the members of rappapa woke up to the morning light from the window.
They met in the cafeteria at 6:30 am before the exam started at 8am so that they could do their final revision for the exam.
“Ahhhhh, I am so nervous!” Kumi said as she slouched, her head knocking the table.
“Just relax kumi you will do fine! We of rappapa do not give up so easily! What’s more, you have been studying hard for the past few months with the help of anna. I am sure you will do fine.” Yuko said as she flipped her book with one hand and patted kumi using the other hand.
“Yea kumi, come on concentrate on your last chance to revise, if there are any questions that you need help on, clear all your queries now with us.” Anna said as she pulled kumi up from the table and rub the bump on kumi’s head.
The group continued studying and cleared any doubts that they had.
“Umm, sorry to interrupt but… isn’t it time for breakfast? Ehehe” Miichan said as her stomach began growling in hunger.
“hahaha~ Miichan is right, we should have our breakfast there is another hour to go let's eat and relax before we sit for the exam.” Mariko said as she closed her book.
The others followed suit and went to order food.
They sat around for another 30 mins after they finished their food.
“Hey I guess it’s time for the exam…” Mayu said as she stood up.
“Yea, let’s get this over with and we are free from exams until the summer vacation are over!” Sae pumped her fist into the air and stretched to release the tension built up within her.
Yukirin just smiled to herself when she saw sae stretching and thought to herself - ‘so cutee~’.
The group patted each other on the back and went into their respective classrooms after wishing each other luck.
In the classroom,
“pst pst, yukirin. Yukirin.”
Yukirin turned to the voice and saw sae whispering a good luck. She smiled again for the second time of the day and mouthed a good luck to sae.
The exam started and the classroom became quiet. Time passed quickly and the 4 continuous papers with a short 5 minutes break came to a close end.
Start of 4th paper,
Some of the students were scratching their heads with the back of the pen as they thought hard about the answer, some closed their eyes and think of what they have studied, some were so nervous they started to tap on their head with their pens.
1 hour had past~
Yuko, mariko, takamina, miichan, rena and jurina finished the paper in a flash and started to check their answers to see if there were any wrong answers.
Yukirin, mayu and sae were almost done with their paper and smiled confidently as they flip to the last page of the test paper.
Haruna was still halfway through the paper as she decided to take things slowly.
Kumi and airin had finished ¾ of her paper and was doing the rest of the questions.
Anna had finished a bit more than kumi and did not stop the pen.
Acchan finished her paper at her own pace and was checking her answers.
Tomochin tapped her head with her pen and wrote the answer to the last question.
Tomo~mi on the other hand was halfway through the paper and having quite a hard time doing the paper.
2 hours past~
“Okay class please put down your pens and pass the paper towards the front.” The teacher clapped her hands together and gave the instruction.
The teacher collected all the papers and went out of the classroom after giving the students final instructions and announced the start of the summer vacations.
Students jumped for joy as they were finally free from exams and it was the start of their two months summer vacations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Waaaaaa~ It’s finally overrrrrrrr!” Yuko stretched like a kitten.
“Uwah! I didn't know the exams here are so intense, we have 4 papers with only 5 mins of break per 2 hours?! The sun has already set!” Jurina said as she rubbed her eyes with her hands. Mayu glanced at her without saying anything.
“Ahhh sorry we didn't tell you about the exams here. We had the same reaction when we first took the exam.” Yuko said.
“Shall we go have dinner? Although it’s only 4:20pm though…” Miichan said as she tap her stomach again and pointed at the restaurant.
“I shall just go grab a drink I am thirsty!” Sae said as she walked first with yukirin following her.
“Good idea, 8 hours of horror and two months of holiday, lets start our holiday now!” Rena ran after saeyuki and miichan.
“hahaha, rena-san is very happy about her holiday this time I bet she will go for her melon pan now.” Airin laughed at how happy rena was.
“I think I will go get smoothie.” Tomochin grabbed tomo~mi’s hand and headed towards the cafeteria.
The rest of the members shrug and looked at each other before heading towards the cafeteria.
“neh, minami~” Acchan grabbed takamina’s arm.
“Hai, Nani?” Takamina asked.
“Umm, I have to go home this summer vacation… my parents suddenly called and said they have something they want to talk about.” Acchan said in a disappointed voice.
“Umm acchan, actually my parents also called me and told me to go home for summer vacation.” Takamina tighten her grip on acchan’s hand.
“E-eh? You too? I guess we won’t be seeing each other for a while… I have to leave tomorrow morning…” Acchan peck takamina on her cheeks and said, “I will miss you.”
“I will miss you too acchan… let’s keep in touch though sms, I will text you everyday!” takamina said as she grabbed acchan’s hand and led her to the cafeteria.
At the cafeteria,
“So, what are your plans for the summer vacation?” Yuko asked as she munched on her burger.
“Actually… for some reason, my parents suddenly called and asked me to go home for summer vacation.” Miichan said.
“Eh? You too? My parents called to ask me home too! Haruna said.
“EH??!!” Acchan and takamina looked at haruna and miichan.
“Eh, you’re kidding right?! Me too!” Mariko, airi, and tomotomo said in unison.
“Actually, us too.” Kumi and anna said while opening their eyes in disbelieve.
“So I take it that all of us are called home by our parents?” Yuko said as she concluded.
“I guess you could say that.” Saeyuki said as they looked around.
“Umm I think I’m the only one who will be here for summer vacation?” Jurina said as she looked up while taking a bite from her pasta.
“Eh? Your parents didn't call you?” Rena asked jurina.
“Y-yea… actually… I came to this school without my parents knowing.” Jurina said as she stopped eating and put down her fork.
“eh?!” Miichan said in curiosity.
Jurina told them about the situation with her parents and said that she was sorry that she did not tell them earlier.
“It’s ok jurina-chan, there are always things we don't want to talk about in public. I am sorry that I asked you about your family.” Miichan said as she pat jurina on her back.
“jurina, it’s ok we will keep in touch.” Takamina smiled kindly.
“yea jurina, it’s ok this type of thing, you really have no need to apologize to us.” Acchan said with her smile.
“Jurina chan~”
Jurina looked up to see everyone from rappapa looking at her.
“The people here are your friends. We will always be your friends. Remember that.” Yuko smiled as she looked around and looked at jurina.
“U-uwahhh!! T-thanks you guys! I am really really glad to have you all as my friends! Thank you!” Jurina sob and wipe the tear that was threatening to fall from her eyes.
“Saa saa let’s enjoy this dinner shall we?” tomochin said.
“Hai!” jurina said with her best smile ever.
“Ah by the way, don’t you find this weird? Our parents are suddenly calling us home and it’s not just one of us but all of us here. That is just weird!” Yuko said as she touched her chin.
“Yea… I wonder why I just feel weird about this… a bad feeling is building within me. I don't know why. My parents who passed me around as if I was a curse, called so suddenly. Why do they want me back now…” Rena said.
“Hmm… Maa, I guess maybe it’s not as bad as we think? It’s our parents that we are talking about.” Sae said in a positive tone although she seems doubtful about her own sentence too.
“Yea let’s go to our rooms earlier to pack. I will be leaving tomorrow.” Mayu said in a calm tone.
“That’s right, we should probably get packing now.” Yukirin said.
“Alright people, I guess I should say see you guys… l will text you all!” Yuko said as she stood up and headed to her room with haruna.
The group went to their respective rooms after they finished their dinner.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the dorm,
The members packed their bags and leaved their belongings behind. It was after all going home, there were enough things in their house for them to use during the summer vacation.
“Neh, jurina… here is everyone’s addresses. You can always come find us if you are bored.” Mayu said as she handed a piece of paper to jurina.
“T-this is… h-hic, s-sob, sob,” tears started to pour down jurina’s cheek and it startled mayu.
“E-EH?! W-why are you crying?! J-jurina?!” Mayu pulled jurina into a hug as she didn't know what to do.
“Shhh, don't cry… it’s ok…” mayu said as she patted jurina softly on her back.
“I-I know, I k-know but… I cant help it, I have finally made some friends and I am just so happy to have met you all! S-sob, I-I, I am s-sorry! H-hic, I will miss you all … S-sob.” Jurina sobbed as she tightened her hug.
“It’s ok jurina, we will only be away for a month, it will be over soon, we will see each other in a flash, believe me. Before you know it, I will be, i-I mean w-we will be back from the summer vacation.” Mayu said in an assuring voice.
They stayed in that position for a few minutes before pulling away.
“Mayu… t-thank you.” Jurina said as she wiped her tears off her face.
“Y-your welcome…” Mayu said as she blushed.
“And one more thing, mayu-chan, you are warm.” Jurina said as she gave mayu a cat like smile.
“B-baka!” mayu hit jurina lightly on her arms and quickly stood up and headed for the bathroom.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
“yukirin, have you seen my-“
“Here.” Yukirin handed sae her watch before sae could finish her sentence.
“W-wow yukirin, you know me the best! Hahaha~ Thanks!” Sae said as she took the watch from yukirin.
Yukirin laughed and was happy that sae said that.
“S-sae-chan…” Yukirin said suddenly.
“Eh? Nani?” sae asked.
“Umm, n-nothing, hehe” yukirin gave a small smile and thought to herself ‘no… now is not the time…”
“You are funny yukirin~” Sae flashed her genki smile to yukirin. ‘e-ehhhhh… n-no I don't think she wanted to say that to me’ Sae thought to herself.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
“tomochin~”
“Yes?” tomochin said as she turned around with her clothes in hand.
“Umm, I was thinking… c-can I go visit you in the one month?” tomo~mi asked as she covered half her face with her pillow.
“Huh? Come on, do you still need to ask? Just give me a call and you can come over anytime.” Tomochin said as she smiled at tomo~mi.
“e-eh… i-I was just asking! M-mou!” tomo~mi said as she covered herself with the blanket and blushed underneath the covers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Anna~ this is gonna be a long 1 month for us.” Kumi said as she hugged anna from behind.
“Yea~ it’s gonna be a long 1 month, so… what do you want me to do?” Anna said as she turned around to face anna.
“I-I just w-wanted my r-reward.” Kumi said and pouted as she closed her eyes.
“Oh~ so you wanted your reward? Hahaha~ come here.” Anna dragged kumi closer and kissed her on her lips.
Kumi was shocked by the sensation because she did not have this feeling for a very long time. They kissed passionately and fought for dominance as kumi gave in under anna’s good skills. After a few minutes, they had to let go for air.
“haa~ w-wow anna you are skilled hehehe~” Kumi said.
“hehe~ I’m just doing what I have promised a few months ago~” Anna said as she pulled kumi in for a second round.
“u-umph, I will miss you for a month a-anna~” Kumi said in between breaths.
“Me too~” Anna said as she let go of kumi, smiled and pulled her in again for another round.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(sorry this is my limit >< I feel so awkward writing the kissing scene lols please tell me if you want to write this scene for me or please just imagine it yourself

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Nyan nyan, we will be away from each other for a month…” yuko said as she laid face down in her bed.
“Yea… we will be away for a month indeed…” haruna said as she typed furiously away on her psp.
Yuko looked at nyan nyan who was playing her psp.
“ehhhh nyan nyan! You are not seriousssssss!” yuko whined but to no avail. Haruna was still typing away on her psp.
“hmm?” Haruna sleepily looked at yuko.
Yuko was pouting and playing with the pillow.
“…”
It was silent for a few minutes and yuko thought it was weird because the typing sound could not be heard anymore.
“nyannyan?” yuko said as she looked up from her pillow.
“nyanny-mm” She came face to face, lip to lip with haruna who had silently crept beside yuko.
After a few moment of silence, yuko recovered from her shock and jumped up.
“NYAN NYAN!” she hugged haruna and smiled.
“y-yuuchan… I will miss you too, but we can text everyday and I believe one month will be over in a flash.” Haruna said as she tightens her hug on yuko.
“hehe~ nyan nyan I love you!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Ano… rena-san? U-umm we will be away for a month s-so I think we should postpone the plan of going somewhere.” Airin said as she stuffed the things into her bag.
“Ah airin, i will go visit you! I will definitely visit you!” rena smiled at airin.
“e-ehhhh? R-really? I-I mean! EHHH?!!!!” airin couldn't believe her ears.
“hahaha yes airin, I will go look for you! It’s a promise!” rena said and and made a pinky promise with airin.
As for airin, she could not handle the heat and fainted in happiness.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“hmm mari-chan, I still think there is something suspicious about this.” Miichan said while munching on her potato chips.
“Yea I have my doubts too but there is really nothing much we can do about this until tomorrow.” Mariko said and stared at miichan.
“By the way… we just had dinner and you are already munching on chips. Are you that hungry?” mariko said in disbelieve.
“hehe I am always hungry” mariko said and continued munching on her chips.
Mariko just kept quiet at that statement and thought about how to deal with this situation.
“hey miichan, when you go back tomorrow,”
Mariko suddenly stopped her sentence.
“and?” miichan asked and gulped.
“I will text you” mariko said and gave miichan a wink.
“W-wha! And here I thought you are gonna say a plan or something! MOU!” Mariko just laughed and squeezes miichan on her cheek.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Next Day
The group gathered at the main entrance with their bags and jurina was there to send them off. Cars were waiting for them at the gate entrance, each with its own chauffeur.
“We have to go now. Jurina, see you in a month.” Yuko said as she bid goodbye to her friends.
“Yea see you all in a month!” miichan said as she waved goodbye.
“Bye bye everyone!” the group said goodbye.
“jurina… see you…” mayu said calmly and jurina smiled at her.
“M-mayu-chan, I will text you…” Jurina said as she let go of mayu’s sleeves.
Mayu nodded and went towards her car. Before she got into the car, she glanced back at jurina for the last time before getting into the car.
“see you… 1 month…” jurina waved her last goodbye to her friends and slowly drag her feet towards the school’s dormitory.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere in the shadows, 3 figures were hiding and watching from afar.
“Our targets have gone home, it’s time to start the plan.” Figure A said.
“Yes. Plan commences next week.” Figure B said.
Figure C made a phone call.
-ring ring ring ring-
“Ah sorry! I called the wrong person!” Firgure C scratched his head and got punched in the head by figure B.
“Stupid! Do this properly or we will all get into trouble!”
Figure C made another phone call and this time, an unknown voice could be heard.
“Proceed with the plan next week.” A deep voice said.
“Y-yes boss!” Figure C replied and closed the phone.
Figure C gave an ok sign to his brothers, signaling that the permission to proceed with the plan.
