Scene 0: The School Presentation

2 years ago

A young woman was observed setting up the camera in a room where a sofa can be seen. She walked away and sat down next to three other young women:

—Hello, my name is Asuka Shimizu, daughter of Ai and Takashi, these are my sisters: Himari, Suki, and Natsuki.

About my likes, I like ice cream, pizza, I hate matcha, I know it is part of our culture but I do not like it, currently I am a student who aspires to study in some health area, I like to read light novels and mangas.

—Hello, my name is Himari Shimizu, I am the calmest sister you could say, the second quadruplet, I like being able to help people, that is why I have taken courses like CPR.

What I love is chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream, I love Taiyaki, what I hate is the taste of papaya and even its smell, and I like to draw.

—Hello, my name is Natsuki Shimizu, I am the third sister of the four. What I love is listening to music, I love romance and thriller movies and series.

What I like are burgers and chocolate ice cream, I love flan although I detest dark chocolate. My guilty pleasure is that I like to listen to and watch Idol music.

—Well, I am the last one, Suki Shimizu, I am a rebellious girl I admit it, but because I like justice at all times. I have practiced Karate since I was little and in a few months I should receive my last belt before the black one.

What I like are fruit-flavored candies, I love pears, although I admit that if I were gifted an ice cream I would be amazed.

Well, we are the Shimizu quadruplets, I hope you liked our presentation.

On the other hand, at the other school, the Yoshidas were there, who had been assigned the same task; a young man stepped back and, standing up, began to speak:

—Hello, I am Ren, son of Akari and Kenji, what I like is chess and studying mathematics, about love well there is not much to say, what I hate is that there are people who do fitness but do not change their diet.

—Hello, I am Kouta Yoshida, the second quadruplet, I like chocolate cake, I like to try new things, about love, previously I had a girlfriend whom due to life circumstances we separated. What I hate is Jamaica, some say I am crazy with that decision, but I do not like it.

—Hello, I am Daichi Yoshida, I am an expert in programming, I can create line codes, just like my brother Sora. About my likes, I like Idols, I listen to music, what I hate is matcha, I do not like it but I tolerate it.

—Hello, I am Sora Yoshida, as my brother said, I also know how to program, furthermore, as brothers we also play video games, although I admit that I like music, I am also a manga artist, two of the published ones like "My love is only for you" I am the artist for Volume 4 and 5.

Well, I hope you get to know us and recognize us among quadruplets.

Scene 1: The Future in a Church

The future

The scent of flowers filled the Church. The sunset blew a fresh breeze with the sun's rays reaching the central aisle. At the front, two beautiful girls dressed as brides began to walk by. They were two Shimizu sisters. Their completely identical faces and that fresh happiness along with their unique beauties kept the community amazed. Several from the community said:

—Who are those two?— whispered a young man sitting at the back

—Is she one Shimizu or the other?— whispered a relative full of happiness

—They are identical!— a couple said

—Who are those pretty women?— some young people in the center of the Church said

—Who are the lucky ones?— a young girl at the back said with a face of astonishment

Scene 2: Asuka Shimizu's Room

Asuka was sleeping in a clean room decorated with pink walls and a five-tier brown bookshelf. When it was time to get up, her cat-sound alarm clock went off. Struggling to wake up, she stretched out her arm, turned off the alarm, and mumbled: —Five more minutes!

Half an hour later, she heard the alarm go off again. Snapping her eyes open, she checked the time and shrieked in panic: —Half an hour?! No way!

She dashed out of her room to wake up her sisters. Frantic about the time, she shouted as she ran past their rooms: —Wake up, everyone! It's already late! We're going to be late for school!

Natsuki was completely buried under her sheets. With a yawn and a bored look on her face, she grumbled to Asuka: —Let's just skip school. Problem solved, and we get to sleep in.

Suki and Himari dragged her out of bed. Yawning with her hair completely messy and eyes she could barely keep open, Himari countered: —Even if we don't want to go, we have to, Natsuki. Didn't you say you wanted to be a veterinarian?

Natsuki snapped back in annoyance: —Ugh! I do want to be a veterinarian, but missing just one day isn't going to kill anyone. Fine, since you're all nagging me, I'll go get ready.

It usually takes them about an hour to get ready, but surprisingly, they pulled it off in twenty minutes, leaving the room a total disaster. Asuka, irritated by the mess since she had already cleaned her own space, snapped at them: —Aren't you going to clean this up?

Himari, frantically hunting for her backpack with a look of pure desperation because she couldn't find her pencil case, fired back: —We'll do it when we get back! There's no time!

Scene 3: On the Way to School and Encounter with a Yoshida

The quadruplets were sprinting down the street, desperate to make it to school on time. Just as they tried to beat the light at an intersection, it snapped to red.

Asuka threw her fists down in frustration, utterly stressed about being late: —Of course you'd be the one to hold us up, you stupid light! It's like you hate us; every single time we're in a rush, you won't let us cross!

Natsuki calmly wrapped her arms around her. Looking her dead in the eye with a sweet expression, she replied: —Take it easy, sis. There's no point in getting mad at it. It's not alive, it can't hear you.
