Dream Catcher: Immortal Dreams 5 Chapter 5: Change Of First Impression?

A week had pa.s.sed and now it was the time for my Taekwondo compet.i.tion. Even though it was just to check our progress I was nervous like h.e.l.l. I was eager to watch Aiko's fight cause everybody bragged about her skills and I haven't seen any of them cause she hardly comes for cla.s.ses. To my surprise her match was in the beginning only. She knocked down her opponent with just two kicks. There was a loud applaud in the hall and sensei seemed satisfied and proud. A bunch of Aiko's followers came rus.h.i.+ng with towels and water bottles. Her moves were really good, I must say. I won my match and later when I was about to go back a hand touched my shoulder from behind and it was Aiko. Conventionally, I got startled by her appearance. "Am I a ghost? Why are you always so surprised whenever you see me?", said Aiko. "Oh! No no, I was just surprised by your sudden appearance, he...hehe...", I said awkwardly. "I was here to tell you that your moves are quiet good. I saw your match today. I also heard you're pretty good in English. I guess I misjudged you", she said. What? She really saw my match? My mind was filled with these thoughts when she suddenly said, "Hey, I'm sorry for that day. I thought you pestered Chiyo to bunk cla.s.s with you but she told me everything. I also lied to Sensie but Chiyo is my close friend, in fact she is only my real friend so I just wanted to protect her from getting into trouble. I hope you'll understand me", said Aiko nearing her eyes and scratching her head. "No problem. You don't need to apologise. Its not your fault. Anyways I got pretty famous because of you, haha", I said. We talked for a little while and I cleared our misunderstanding of my first day. "You are so different from what I thought about you. I thought you were a total, indisciplined freak. But it turns out the other way. Hey, can you help me with English?", asked Aiko with expectations in her eyes. "Umm, yep, but aren't you already good in your studies?, I said. "I'm good in other subjects but my English is really weak. Please teach me", she begged. What? She's asking me to teach her? But my cla.s.smates said she's really mean and I should stay away from her. But after talking to her, I realise she's not as cold as she seemed to be. Omg what should I do? She kept looking at me with expected eyes and again I noticed her long lashes. "YES! Sure, I'll help you", I blurted.
