The popular girl

You were a high school student in your 2nd year, and everything was in routine. You woke up, went to school, came back home, ate, slept, and the cycle started over again. Is was boring, but it worked out. Right now, you were on the 3d stage. You were going back home.

As you walked down the sidewalk, your headphones on, your music blasting in your ears, you noticed something. Something that urged you to break the routine... It was Hayami Makino. Hayami was the popular girl that was 1 grade over yours in high school. And no, she wasn't one of the self-absorbed popular girls at all. She was nice. You never really cared about her much since she never noticed you, so what was the point? As you stared at her, you noticed how she was kneeling down in front of a small white cat. She was rubbing the cat's head gently while talking to it in a soft tone. Hayami continued this for a moment, till you took one step forward, causing her ears to perk up. Hayami looked up from the cat, and at you, her round black monolid eyes locked onto yours.

How will you handle this? Will you talk to her? Ignore her, and walk past her carelessly? Or will you break your routine...?
