Sonata No Kioku
12-plans to Disaster

"Why don't you try to talk to him? Who knows, you can share that room together. Yeah, right?"

"I've tried to talk, but he's trying to kill by hitting him with his violin."

"You gave up Ta-chan too soon! Try to understand, huh?"

For some reason this morning, Ken-chan's words kept ringing clearly in both of my ears. Because of this, I got angry with Satoshi and Haruka.

To be honest, I really want to be friends with Kanzaki-san. But my hand is too far away to reach it which is in the highest place. Every day our distance is always widened like heaven and earth is far away.

"Hey hey, I heard that pagan lady started playing another instrument.."

"Well time? It's great! If I record it and spread it on social media, it's going to go viral"

"If it's not wrong he played his original song with the tempo of rock music"

"What? So strange"

All the students in my class, maybe more precisely one school had heard the rumor going around, that "Today, the baseball club heard a sound of rock music coming from the garbage dump"

"Kanzaki-san's original song? Which one is one?"

"That's the "loh "

"Did? That heart-wrenching song?! It's unexpected that it'll turn into rock!"

"True, he deserves to be nicknamed Paganini"

"True, its nature is not much different from the maestro who is already underground!"

The lesson has not yet begun, but everything has been discussed with each other about the rumors circulating whether it is true or false. I just stared at the entire disciple as he yawned and buried his head in the table. Bored, that's the first word on a clear morning.

Suddenly, the sound of the front door being shifted sounded. Beware of all the students who were busy gossiping in the morning. A body figure was slowly seen entering the classroom. "Well, please sit in each place" exclaimed the heavy voice typical of IPA teachers while closing the door.

Now the whole class is immersed in eternal silence. At first everyone looked confused and looked at each other, before finally sitting in their seats as if nothing had happened.

The tension of the class began to feel as the first class bell rang. The only person who had no effect on the condemnation of this atmosphere, only the one who was in the middle of gossip right this morning. It seemed that he was beginning to realize something, as he walked to his chair, he looked at the entire disciple as he said;

"If you're curious, would you like to listen when you come home?"

"The right one! I will definitely hear!!"

"Me too! Me too! Me too! Because I'm your fan"

"Of course a music fan like me wouldn't miss it"

Sahut said the voice of the excited male disciple sounded endless. Classes are now crowded again with cheers and whispers of students.

"Hey is he not so reckless? Not even a month here, he's been throwing a tantrum again. Basic maestro" whispered Satoshi.

"Truly I agree! Was he not bothered by the sinister gaze of the female disciple who had already raised the war flag?" Haruka.

"Oi you two. If you want to join the gossip with others, not in both my ears!!" I bluffed while covering both my ears.

"ALL!! NO NOISE! QUICKLY SIT DOWN, THE LESSON WILL BEGIN" Shouted Sensei.

"I'm sorry..." Speak to all students at the same time

"Because you're always noisy, first break, you have to help the baseball and football clubs clear the field!"

"HEHHHH?!!!"

"Don't HEH but GOOD!"

"Good Sensei..." All the disciples now locked their mouths and lowered their heads in lethargy. Now we start to continue the IPA lessons with awkward feelings.

"Ah-hah troublesome"—batinku resigned.

I had expected this to happen. But, even so I have to reclaim my personal space even though there are already Kanzaki who occupy. I won't just give up the class I've been fixing so hard!

//As for lesson hours//

"Alright, all of you please go to the field. Takana-sensei said you have to help the baseball and football clubs because of the noisy punishment in class" said Aya-sensei.

"Good" exclaimed we were all compact.

The break came, and my class helped clear the field with the members of the baseball and football clubs who had just finished tournament preparation training. Before we made our move, the class president divided us into two groups. The girl group cleaned the locker room and picked up a litter of scattered bottles, while the male group cleaned up the equipment and cleaned the dressing room as well.

"It's hot and even told to clean up, Sensei" grumbled Satoshi as he put the balls into the box I was holding.

"You are still mending class we are told to clean the field rather than receive PR physics one book" said I.

"Yes it's true too, but if only this morning our class locked the door before gossip, it would not be scolded gini right.."

"Locked the door?"

Suddenly an electric shock was felt in my head that made an idea appear. I found a sneaky way to get my private room back from Kanzaki.

The plan I had in mind was to lock myself in the room so Kanzaki could not get inside or damage his belongings so that he could no longer use the room.

"Hahaha must have succeeded" Kikik I girang.

"Oi Arata, why are you laughing so? Are you sick from sunburn?" Satoshi asked a little scared.

"Ah maybe yes, then I want to go to class to drink yes" said I who ran in a hurry.

"He was sick, but how could he run so fast?" Satoshi's mind is confused.

I walk vigilantly towards the landfill. At first it did go smoothly without anyone suspecting, and suddenly..

"What's Saki-kun doing here?" Say a loud voice I know.

When I glanced back, I could only smile while pretending to pick up the fallen trash.

"Ah. a-I was taking out the trash, but the bag was suddenly torn. I picked it up again" I replied lying.

"Oh so, the spirit yes. It's a break for us soon. Takana-sensei said we do not need to follow the 5th lesson" said Sakura while jumping happily.

"Hahaha, it turns out there is also good luck yes we are hot-warm gini" said his friend named Ino

"In that case, we're Arata first"

"If you have, help us in the dressing room"

"Ah yes.."

After making sure that the two of them disappeared perfectly around the corner, I walked back to the classroom. However, I was astonished to see the door that now hangs a lot of colorful padlocks.

"Have the nerve to play me like this" I said annoyed.

As I focused on opening the locks, I thought of the absurd idea of most movies. Yes, open the padlock with a hair clip or paper. Fortunately I was carrying Haruka's hairpin that I had not returned (intentionally hidden).

"Huh, don't underestimate this fiddling-brain master, miss violin. You don't yet know the true ability of me who's been sitting quietly in front of shapeless parts for a long time" I said excitedly.

*lek*

One padlock was already open, but I did not realize that there was a danger waiting for it greater than being accused of stealing.

"... What are you doing here?"

A voice suddenly sounded from behind. I almost jumped two meters because I was so surprised. When I move back..

"I asked what are you doing?"

He is Kanzaki. His face looked extremely excited and from his head came out a smoke of anger. Both of his hands were now at the waist with a sour face.

"Based thief! Bawdy! Stalker! Music maniac!! You must be intending to forcibly open this imported padlock from Greece right? You better just give up on this butut class" he snapped.

"Did? Does it look like that, right?" I tried as much as I could not know.

"Don't lie about the octopus brain! Stop all that effort. Quickly get away from this room and from before me now" he said.

"Who gave you the right to yell at me?" I asked.

"Well what do you mean?, I did that so you wouldn't always follow me wherever I went. Why are you always there wherever I am?" His tone is now rising.

How dare he. Only one person treats me like a real criminal. From his tone and style of speech, he must have stored my memory as someone who had bad intentions for him. It seems that my life will definitely be complicated and be in big trouble.

"That's not what I mean... I was the first to find this class. And I'm also the one who fixes all the equipment needed for music" I explained.

"But you haven't asked Sensei for permission to use this class yet" he denied me.

"I admit it's true, but I've been trying to modify the tools you've been using for practice. How could I just let it go" I said.

"Hooh. Just so you know, Ken-chan agreed to give me this class. So I'm entitled to wear it"

"But it's.."

"This is a room for music practice, not a place to relax!"

Kanzaki pushed me into the trash. He opened the lock, went into the classroom, and closed the door. I was silent on the spot and pensive for a few seconds. Then, without a second thought, I barged inside, forcibly opening the door as if trying to destroy it.

"Stop treating me like a fool who can only waste time. Life is a matter of spending time until it dies." I screamed half-stomach.

"Keep, why don't you just die there?" Ask.

"Did?"

"You're saying life is just about spending time to die, right, why are you still alive? Don't you want to die?" He asked again.

The atmosphere is getting worse. The plan that I did carefully though only for a little while, had been shattered like scrambled eggs.

The breeze that was blowing from behind my body, was now rushing through something empty within me. In an instant, my eyes fell and I somehow couldn't speak anymore..

"*Why,.... so this*?"
