Start by Becoming a Mangaka

Yuuki who saw Hinako who almost pose into a scarecrow walked toward her and talked to the police. He talked to the police that the girl was too nervous and couldn't answer him.

Yuuki was glad that the police didn't seem offended with him being blunt to him, but he was sweatdropping when he saw the police left him alone with Hinako. He knew she was very nervous and couldn't say anything.

"I'm sorry, that I'm startled you." Yuuki apologized to her because he knew that he made her nervous. He didn't say anything after that and waited for Hinako to answer him. He needed to be patient and didn't rush her to answer him.

Yuuki waited patiently and finally, Hinako talked to him. He knew that she was very nervous and it took a lot of her energy to ask him where was 'Hitotose Dorm'. He couldn't make fun of her and needed to smile warmly at her.

"Hitotose dorm, is it? Let me see the address." Hinako seemed to relax when she saw Yuuki smiled at her.

"Ye-yes!" Hinako gave him the address.

"Hmm, I know this place." Yuuki had toured around the town. Even though he didn't know the location but he knew the street. He could ask someone when he had already near the location.

"How about I guide you there?" Yuuki was worried that Hinako would get lose.

"Re-really?" Hinako asked.

"Yes," Yuuki said.

"Tha-thank you very much!!" Hinako bowed her head and felt very grateful toward him.

The bird around her also flew toward him and looked very happy. It was as if the bird said 'thank you' to him.

"Well, let me guide you to Hitotose Dorm." Hinako nodded in response and didn't look nervous like before.

Yuuki was happy that Hinako could be comfortable around him.

Both of them walked together to the 'Hitotose Dorm'.

"My name is Shuuei Yuuki and you can call me Yuuki, what's your name?" Yuuki needed to ask her name before he called her Hinako.

"M-my name is Sakuragi Hinako." Yuuki nodded in response.

"Can I call you, Hina-chan?" Hinako was blushing but nodded at him.

Yuuki was glad that he could meet Hinako on the way, he looked at the bird which following them.

"Is this your friend?" Yuuki looked at the bird.

"Ye-yes, its name is Toritarou." Hina-chan said while showed him Toritarou on her finger.

"Pi pi pi!" Toritarou greeted him.

"What a cute bird like its owner." But Yuuki regretted to tease Hina-chan because when she heard him praised her cute. She was overwhelmed and a lot of smoke came out from her head. She almost fell but he caught her.

"I'm sorry for teasing you." Hina-chan was still blushing but shook her head.

"I-it's okay, but it's my first time being praised by a boy." The atmosphere became very sweet and both of them looked into each other eyes. Yuuki could see her eyes were pure and untainted. He wanted to taint her and took her away, but he shook his head.

'I can't!' Yuuki felt terrible and helped her to stand.

"Tha-thank you." Hina-chan was happy and nervous at the same time when Yuuki caught her and helped her to stand up.

"Don't worry, it's my fault that you fall," Yuuki said.

Then both of them continued to walk to the Hitotose Dorm.

"Hmm, Yuuki, are you a high school?" Hina-chan asked.

"Yes, I'll transfer to Fujiyama High School next week," Yuuki said.

"Really? I also going to the same school." Hina-chan seemed happy that she got acquaintances had the same school as her.

"That's great, Which grade are you?" Yuuki knew thought Hina-chan was 1st grade.

"I'll be a 1st grade in there, how about you, Yuuki?" Hina-chan didn't nervous anymore when she talked to him.

"I'm in my 2nd year, you need to call me senpai then." Yuuki thought that it would be nice for her to call him 'Yuuki-senpai.' That would be lovely.

"Ye-yes, Yuuki-senpai." Hina-chan blushed again when she called him.

Yuuki tried to hold himself not to hug her. Hina-chan was too cute for him, but he needed to calm himself. He couldn't destroy his progress to get to know her.

Both of them started to talk about her life in the countryside. Yuuki was startled when he heard that Hina-chan could talk with an animal. He thought it was kind of feeling but she could talk with any animal.

"Wow, that is a very good ability." Yuuki praised it.

"Yeah, that is why, I can make a lot of friends, right? Toritarou." Hina-chan looked at it.

"Pi pi pi," Toritarou answered her.

Yuuki couldn't understand their conversation but he knew that both Hina-chan and Toritarou was a best friend. He shook his head and continued to ask her.

"Why are coming to this school Hina-chan?" After all, Hina-chan came from the countryside. Her school was very far from her home. She must have a dream when she came to the town.

"Ye-yes, I want to become an actress theatre!" Hina-chan started telling him about her experience when she saw last year theatre performance. She came to this school was to fix her nervous habit and learned theatre acting.

"I hope you'll succeed." Yuuki knew from the anime that the theatre club was being disbanded but he didn't tell her. It was better for her to know it by herself.

They walked for a while and arrived at the Hitotose Dorm.

"It's here," Yuuki told.

"Yes, thank you, Yuuki." Hina-chan felt grateful.

"Let me help you bring your luggage inside." Hina-chan nodded in response and felt very grateful at Yuuki.

Both of them walked toward the dorm and saw a beautiful girl with long blue hair there.

They thought that she was reading a book until they saw her eating it.

'Hmm? Eating?' Both Yuuki and Hina-chan were startled and stopped seeing someone eating a book.
