Cowardly Pride and Pompous Shame [edit]

Unfortunately, yet, this is non where our story full of misfortune ends.

The terminate of the festival signaled the render to our usual daily lives.

Our extended vacation ended yesterday, on Monday, and upon reaching school today I quickly noticed that all the decorations at the school gate and in the schoolhouse yard were gone.

That said, information technology was only the parts that you lot could run into from the outside that had been completely cleaned upwardly. Inside at that place were nevertheless tons of cardboard boxes and supplies lying effectually, and plenty of posters were however up on the walls also.

The unabridged school was total of that unique relaxed feeling y'all get afterwards the end of a festival.

Information technology feels like there are more students than usual shut to falling asleep in the heart of class equally well, myself included.

And on top of that, we're currently in the middle of modern Japanese, the number one grade to put you to sleep, and but staying awake is taking all the energy I have.

The current subject nosotros're covering is Atsushi Nakajima'due south Sangetsuki.

Information technology's set in aboriginal Red china, and patently it's most an amazing poet downwardly on his luck who ultimately goes insane and turns into a tiger.

"...Then, Richou quit his job and cut off all contact with other people in lodge to focus solely on his verse, even so he had quite a hard fourth dimension coming up with annihilation. What would you normally practise in this state of affairs? ...What do you lot think, Mikadzuki?"

The balmy-mannered teacher was giving his lecture in a leisurely tone of vox as he slowly walked effectually the room, and and then stopped to ask Yozora a question.

Past the fashion, the teachers here pick on Yozora fairly often to answer questions.

If I had to say why... it's probably because they think that they can move the class forth more smoothly by having an honor pupil similar Yozora reply the question.

I figured Yozora would matter-of-factly state the correct answer every bit she e'er did, however to my surprise she went "Eh..." and seemed to exist at a loss for what to say.

She flipped through her textbook in a slightly hurried fashion, and and so quietly answered in a phonation lacking conviction,

"......Go mad at myself...?"

She must've chosen that every bit her respond considering in the text it stated that Richou had self-derisive tendencies.

"Hahaha, it's not every mean solar day we get to hear a joke from you, Mikadzuki."

The teacher cheerfully laughed, honestly thinking she was joking.

However Yozora only brutal further into panic.

"Eh... Ah... Um......... I don't know then."

"Haha..."

The teacher laughed once again as Yozora answered with a direct face, still he appeared to have noticed that Yozora truly didn't know the answer, and then said, "How about you, Suzuki? What would you exercise?" choosing to enquire the student sitting behind Yozora next.

"Umm... Talk to someone else about it?"

"That's right, ordinarily in this type of situation y'all'd enquire someone for assist, however Richou——..."

Suzuki'south quick, off-the-gage reply appeared to be the one the teacher was looking for, as he and so continued his lecture.

Equally for Yozora, she was staring straight down, glaring at her textbook, and her confront was bright cherry-red all the way upwards to her ears.

☺

"Argh, I can't stand it!"

Subsequently school, as we were making our fashion to the clubroom, Yozora finally snapped once we'd fabricated our way to where nobody else was.

"C-can't stand what?"

Information technology was so sudden I was more than surprised than anything.

"Isn't information technology obvious!? I'one thousand talking well-nigh before in modern Japanese form!"

"Ahh..."

Modern Japanese was three periods ago... so about five hours agone at present. How long has she been thinking about this?

"...Pretty rare to see y'all get a question wrong. Did y'all non read the story alee of fourth dimension?"

"No, I read it just fine. His stupid question wasn't in the book..."

Yozora said with a pout on her face.

"Well, it was more than like a part of his lecture than an actual question about the story. Makes sense information technology wouldn't exist in the book."

I said, still Yozora only got angrier.

"I can't believe he'd enquire such a ridiculous question, that damn sadist of a teacher! Sneaky jerk! Moron! Baldy! Retard! Jerk! Idiot! Poophead!"

I'grand guessing it's because she lost her cool, but Yozora's insults were pretty defective compared to usual.

"And besides, if he was the kind of person who could just inquire others for help when he needed information technology, he wouldn't have quit his job to become a poet in the beginning place, you damn idiot! That bald moron has no idea how Richou actually felt! That bald imbecile has no identify talking about Richou's noble ambitions! That stupid idiot!"

"Y-yeah..."

I said, ignoring Yozora with a wry smile.

...I'd say he'south actually a pretty good teacher myself, considering he noticed Yozora didn't know the answer and apace moved to another student.

Yozora'due south complaining eventually moved from insulting our instructor and empathizing with Richou, to her ain little theory on "What literature really is", and then to her criticizing Japan's educational activity arrangement.

She was so all over the place I had no thought what she wanted to say though.

"Also, how can yous even measure how much somebody has to exist suffering to plow into a tiger, I mean—— Kodaka, are y'all listening?"

"Eh? Oh, y-yeah. Authors sure have information technology rough~"

"Yeah, that's exactly correct! Even the most skilled author volition brand a mistake or two when they're faced with overwhelming distress..."

"Like plagiarizing?"

"...Eh... Y-yep... I-I s-suppose some authors m-might exercise that t-too... Jerk."

Yozora's flowing critiques came to a crashing halt equally she quieted upwardly like a cat that'd merely been scolded. Guess I don't have to worry about her turning into a tiger similar Richou...

...Really though, as a affair of fact, dorsum during class I was just as lost as Yozora on how to answer that question that our classmate, Suzuki, answered without even having to really think virtually information technology.

Asking others for assistance, huh...

...They make it sound so easy...

A New Calorie-free [edit]

After running out of the clubroom the weekend quickly passed by, and it was now Monday after school.

As I was walking through the halls with heavy steps, I saw Aoi Yusa a ways off walking in my direction.

She was carrying 2 cardboard boxes and looked really unsteady on her feet.

The boxes looked pretty heavy, and she was wearing a pretty stern expression as she carried them.

The boxes made it so she couldn't see in front of her very well, and it wasn't until she was almost a meter away that she realized information technology was me, causing her to go "Ah..." and make an awkward face.

Yusa averted her gaze and chop-chop tried to pass by me.

"Awa!?"

Still, all all of a sudden she tripped over her ain anxiety and lost her balance.

"Uoh!?"

I reflexively grabbed both boxes with my hands and held them steady, allowing Yusa to regain her residual.

"Phew... T-thanks, Hasegawa. I-if you'll excuse me!"

"Hey, wait!"

I called out to Yusa equally she tried to quickly get away from me, and asked her,

"...Desire some help?"

"I-I'm fi—— Owah, ah?"

Yusa was correct in the middle of refusing my offering when she tripped over again, virtually dropping the peak box. All I could do was sigh at her.

"...You tin't even meet where you lot're going. It's dangerous——"

I said before snatching the top box.

"——Uwoah!?"

However it was heavier than I thought information technology'd be, causing me to let out a yelp in a panicked vox.

About girls would probably take a hell of a time trying to bear two of these at once... Hell, some guys might even accept trouble conveying 2.

"T-thank you Hasegawa..."

Yusa thanked me while blushing faintly.

"Don't sweat it."

I said, and so started walking alongside Yusa.

"These are pretty heavy... what's in 'em?"

"Request forms and printouts used during the school festival. At that place's some pamphlets and such in here besides."

"Ahh, paper huh. No wonder it's heavy... What were you thinking, carrying ii of these at once?"

"I-I couldn't assist it, in that location'southward a lot of them I have to move! ——Uwo!"

Even with only one box Yusa still looked unsteady on her feet.

"...Are you OK?"

"Y-yep..."

Yusa seemed embarrassed every bit she nodded at me.

"Then if you have a lot, does that mean there'south still more later these two?"

"Yes."

"Why are you even carrying these in the first identify?"

"Information technology'due south part of my Student Council duties."

"You have to carry all of them by yourself?"

"Yes."

"How can they make 1 person carry so many of these alone..."

"T-that'south not it!"

Yusa hurriedly interjected upon hearing my accusatory tone.

"Information technology'southward non like everyone else in the Student Council pushed this onto me. It's the contrary actually, I turned downward their offer to aid."

"How come?"

"Because it's my fault for skipping a week of work that things got this backed upwardly. I can't bother everyone else with this when they're already then decorated."

Yusa plainly stated with a super serious wait on her face.

That week she skipped... is probably the time she spent observing what we were doing in the Neighbors Club.

And manifestly this is the work that piled up in that fourth dimension.

"...Hey, Yusa."

"Yeah?"

"...Why did you effort then hard to get rid of the Neighbors Club?"

I asked her something that'd been on my mind.

First she came and complained nosotros weren't post-obit school rules, and when that failed she went then far equally checking the staff roster simply to find something nosotros did incorrect.

And that'southward all despite the fact that the Neighbors Society hasn't e'er caused any real problems.

The fact we spend all of our time playing effectually is probably an issue, but I'k pretty sure there are plenty of clubs besides ours who don't do much.

If it was just about the schoolhouse rules, then at that place are plenty of other students who aren't following them. In fact, I'd be surprised if you could detect even ane person who follows all the schoolhouse rules to a T.

In that location's also the fact that the time I first met Yusa she actually complimented my dress and hair and such because she thought I was doing all that to be stylish.

Even if she is a ridiculously serious hard worker, I don't think she'southward an inflexible stubborn person at all.

And however, she focused on the Neighbors Club to the signal that it caused problems with her ain piece of work, and fifty-fifty tried to accept the club disbanded.

I'm not sure how to put information technology exactly, simply it merely doesn't seem similar something she'd do.

"I did it because people with amazing skills should be in a place that suits those skills."

Yusa plainly answered.

"...A place that suits their skills?"

"Yeah! It is a swell loss to all of mankind to have a person every bit gifted equally Sena Kashiwazaki wasting her fourth dimension in such a place!"

"To all of mankind, huh..."

I said while making a wry smiling, and then asked,

"...So, basically, you were trying to get rid of the Neighbors Society for Sena's sake?"

"Yep!" Yusa immediately replied.

"I encounter..."

Looking at it from an objective point of view—— I'thou sure Yusa is right.

Whether or non it'due south something that affects all of flesh bated, I'yard sure Sena could attain some nifty things in a sports guild.

She might be fatally uncooperative, simply it'd be fine as long as she did solo events, and fifty-fifty for team events her specs are so high it balances out her faults and then some.

And Sena isn't the only one in the Neighbors Guild like that.

Yozora Mikadzuki is amazing at both academics and sports.

She'due south bad at socializing, just it's not like she can't fit into a group at all, and I'm certain she'd be able to handle but well-nigh anything you throw at her.

Needless to say there's Rika Shiguma besides, who's already done actual professional work.

I bet tons of people would dear to accept her spend her free time helping them inquiry and invent things. In fact, in that location'due south probably more than people who'd want her than at that place are who'd want Sena.

Kobato Hasegawa is popular in her middle school—— She has a identify she belongs outside the Neighbors Social club.

She should value the bonds she has with her classmates, then she tin be ready for when she eventually graduates and becomes a loftier school student.

Maria Takayama has an older sis at her side who loves her more than anyone else.

Even if she didn't take the Neighbors Club, I'm sure her sister would protect her and guide her right this fourth dimension.

As for Yukimura Kusunoki, she claims "I do not need friends." and thus completely denies the idea of "making friends" at the center of the Neighbors Club.

A shiver ran through my body and caused all my hair to stand on finish.

If you lot think virtually information technology logically,

the Neighbors club has no reason to,

no reason to...

"But kidding, that was a prevarication."

Yusa said with a sigh just before my brain could course that concluding terrifying word.

"Huh? A lie?"

"...It would've been nice if I had a cool reason like doing it for the globe, or for someone else, or for lodge, or for justice, merely... that's not why I did information technology. Honestly, I didn't recall about doing information technology for her at all."

"...What do you hateful?"

Yusa made a self-derisive smile at my question.

"I merely wanted to trounce Sena Kashiwazaki. I wanted to show the queen who has everything that not everything will go her way. ...Basically, I was jealous. I wanted someone blessed like her to pay a fitting toll. If you're more blest than others, then you should endure an equal amount. Otherwise it'd exist unfair. If at that place are people who are born with everything and get to be happy no matter what, then what about the normal people out there trying their best every unmarried day?"

Yusa then paused and went, "Hahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~~" and let out a big sigh.

"...But, trying to harass Sena Kashiwazaki but concluded up making me wait more than pathetic... I even caused trouble for you too, Hasegawa. I'g sorry."

Yusa seemed to truly regret her actions equally she apologized to me.

Honestly, I don't think playing the bad guy suits her in the to the lowest degree.

"You don't accept to worry near us, what'southward done is washed... And besides, I kinda know what you hateful..."

"I appreciate it, even if it is just a prevarication."

Yusa said with an atoning wait on her face.

I wasn't lying though. After all, what's incorrect with existence jealous of others?

"...Oh, also,"

In that location was something more important than her apology I needed to tell her.

"...You lot're incorrect about thinking that Sena has everything. At that place are things that even she doesn't accept."

"Oh? Only what doesn't she accept and then?"

"...Friends, for example."

"Ahaha."

Yusa made a big grinning after hearing my completely serious answer.

"W-why are you laughing?"

Yusa looked similar she'd just heard something hilarious every bit she said,

"Aha, you've got every bit good a sense of humour every bit e'er, Hasegawa~ As if in that location'south anybody who doesn't accept whatever friends! Proficient joke though! Pfft, haha!"

"......Y-yeah, guess you're right, haha..."

"Cheers very much, Hasegawa! I appreciate you telling such a funny joke to endeavour and cheer someone like me upward! You're a really dainty and wonderful person!"

She made a sweet smile, and I could see that her walking wasn't as labored as it was before.

"........."

.........It's good to meet she'southward back to her usual self again, simply... for some reason I experience kinda depressed correct at present...

☺

Yusa and I left the school building, and carried the boxes all the way out to a shed tucked away in a corner of the school grounds.

Within the shed there were bunches of folded upwardly cardboard boxes, stacks of printer newspaper, newspapers, and books all separated into their own trivial areas.

I've heard that all the paper garbage in St. Chronica Academy goes here, and that once a calendar month they ship information technology out to be recycled.

I took all the paper out of my cardboard box, bankrupt it up into smaller stacks, so tied it upwards with some vinyl rope and placed it in the designated surface area.

I folded up the cardboard box as well, and placed it on top of the other folded up boxes.

Merely one box alone was quite a fleck of work.

"Give thanks y'all very much, Hasegawa. You were a big assist."

Yusa said with a smile while wiping the sweat off of her forehead.

She then told me,

"I'll exist fine now, yous can go to your club."

"...!"

My middle felt like it was near to jump out of my chest at the mention of the word "club".

"Y'all've notwithstanding got more to comport, don't you? I'll aid with those too."

I said, trying my best to act calm.

"Huh?"

Yusa looked confused for a moment, and then said,

"Y-you don't have to do that! This is all work I should be doing!"

"Don't worry about it. In for a penny in for a pound."

"B-simply there are still quite a few left..."

"And then all the more reason for me to help. Can't just abandon you, now tin can I?"

That was, without a dubiety, what I honestly thought.

I'd experience bad if I left a fiddling daughter similar her (even if she is the aforementioned age equally me) to do all this heavy lifting by herself.

"Just it doesn't even have anything to do with you, I'd feel bad making y'all help..."

"This is all work that piled upward while you were observing the Neighbors Club, right? Then it does have something to do with me."

It's also truthful that I felt a scrap guilty almost making Yusa waste all that time.

"You... think then...?"

After mulling it over for a few moments, Yusa made a cheerful grinning and said,

"Okay, then I'll take yous up on your offering. Thank you very much, Hasegawa!"

"...But is it actually okay if you don't go to your lodge?"

I did my best to sound casual equally I responded to Yusa's hesitant question.

"Yous should know past at present that the Neighbors Club doesn't have any specific activities. If we have other stuff to do then we're costless to do that stuff instead."

That is also the truth.

The seven of us might've started gathering more frequently lately, but information technology wasn't too long ago that hardly anyone always showed up.

People would exist absent-minded for any number of reasons you'd never become away with in a normal club, whether it be considering they wanted to buy a new volume, wanted to play a new video game, wanted to do their homework, etc.

In fact, sometimes the only reason would be that they didn't feel similar it, and on top of that they wouldn't fifty-fifty tell anyone they weren't coming. To tell the truth, I've actually done that on more than one occasion myself.

Thus, "helping the Student Quango" was merely the reason I needed.

It was a perfect reason, one nobody could fault me for.

.........

...Why have I been going out of my way to mention "this is the truth" and "that was what I really idea" for the by little while now?

...Why was I looking for "a reason I can't go the Neighbors Club"?

...Who am I making excuses to?

.........The answer is obvious.

I didn't want to admit that, even if information technology was only for a carve up second, that I idea to myself, "I don't want to go to the Neighbors Social club."

☺

Yusa and I fabricated iii more trips back and forth, conveying the heavy cardboard boxes from the Student Council storage room (the room next to the Student Council's room) to the shed.

"Hafuuu~"

Yusa plunked the box she'd been carrying downwards onto the floor of the shed, and and so sabbatum down on top of it.

She was breathing heavily, and her forehead was covered in sweat.

I was in much the same shape, and was currently resting against a shelf regaining my breath.

"Haa......... This is pretty hard work..."

"Sh-shure ish... Hau..."

Yusa gave a tired nod in response to my wry smile.

"How much is left?"

"At that place's still all the boxes on the floor in our storage room, so at to the lowest degree 10..."

"Seriously...? All of those...?"

"B-only don't worry! Nosotros're almost done with all the paper, all that should exist left after that is cloth and wood stuff!"

"C-textile aside, isn't woods kinda heavy...!?"

I said as a common cold sweat ran down my cheek.

"...I know it's likewise belatedly at present anyway, but couldn't you lot have burned all the paper and textile at the campfire?"

I thought it was a pretty practiced thought myself, but Yusa simply made a wry smile.

"Ahaha... Possibly some of information technology, but definitely non all of it."

"Eh, how come up?"

"Information technology's dangerous if the fire gets too large, and some stuff might be toxic if we burned it. At that place'southward likewise the fact that the people in the neighborhood would complain if nosotros kept the campfire going also late into the dark. ...Really, it'southward and then much work to do the campfire that every year people say we should stop doing it."

"Really?"

"Yeah. We only still do it considering it'due south been a tradition since the school was founded. ...Although some people say it'southward also because the chairman won't cancel it."

Judge there'south a lot of annoying backside-the-scenes stuff even for something every bit beautiful as the campfire.

"...Alright, ready to get back to piece of work?"

"Ah, aye. ...Um... I think I'll practise the remainder by myself after all, Hasegawa yous tin can..."

I cut off Yusa mid-sentence, and told her,

"Don't be ridiculous, I'm helping you to the very cease and that's that. ......Only, well, wanna call it a day subsequently 2 or three more boxes? It'southward starting to get night and all."

"Eh!? Are you lot going to help me tomorrow likewise?"

"Of class."

Yusa looked incredibly grateful and made a bashful smile upon hearing my answer.

"Hasegawa... Thank you very much...!"

"Don't sweat it."

...Having someone directly such honest appreciation towards me was honestly really painful. I don't deserve to be thanked past anyone.

"C-come up on, permit'due south go."

"OK!"

Yusa nodded with a smiling after I'd stuttered my words out, after which we turned towards the archway to the shed.

However every bit we did, someone appeared at the entrance.

"...!?"

The light backside them was so bright I couldn't meet their face very well.

I could tell the person had long hair and was wearing a skirt though, and then it had to be a girl.

"Kuhaha! First-class work you two!"

...I know I've heard that clear voice that makes y'all want to just keep on listening to it earlier.

The girl who'd but appeared with a blinding light backside her greeted us in a hearty vox along with a boisterous express mirth, and then entered the shed.

Her expert-looks gave her an aura of refinement and intelligence, and her long black hair, tied into braids which made her wait like the daughter of a well-off family unit, but served to strengthen that impression.

Slender legs, a supple waist, and a plump yet modest breast.

Her name is Hinata Hidaka.

She's the student council president hither at St. Chronica University, beloved past just nearly everybody (or so I've heard), too as the girl Yozora secretly loathes and calls "Male monarch Lear".

"Hinata!? Why are you here!?"

Yusa said in a shocked tone of vocalization.

President Hinata responded past going "Heh," before making a both majestic and charming smiling, and then saying,

"I heard there was a regular student helping yous out with your work, yous encounter. I figured I should say my thanks as Pupil Council President."

"Eh..."

She came all the manner out here but to give thanks me?

I was pretty shocked myself, but Yusa merely gave the president a common cold stare.

"...Y'all just used that as an excuse to skip out on your piece of work again, didn't y'all?"

"Kuhaha! Interacting with my young man students is my job!"

From the looks of information technology Yusa was spot on with her guess, but the president didn't seem to care at all and instead fabricated a cheerful express joy.

"My goodness..."

Yusa said with a sigh, afterwards which the president shifted her gaze away from Yusa and over to me.

Her optics resembling a pair of giant black pearls met with mine.

Her gaze had a sure force to it, only it wasn't an overwhelming one. Rather, it was a tender, comfortable one.

It almost felt similar I was going to be sucked into those eyes of hers.

"Hinata, this is Kodaka Hasegawa of course two-5."

Yusa said, introducing me to the president, which elicited from her the following response:

"Ohh, so this is him, huh!?"

"Eh, y'all know him?"

"Nope."

The president said with a serious look on her face up in respond to Yusa's surprise.

"Then why'd you act all surprised!?"

"I was simply going with the flow!"

......What the heck is going on here...

For a second there I idea that fifty-fifty the Pupil Quango President had heard all those bad rumors almost me... I almost had a eye attack for cryin' out loud...

"Sheesh..."

Yusa's expression now appeared a scrap annoyed as she introduced the president to me.

"Ah, Hasegawa, this is the Student Council President, Hinata Hidaka."

"Ah, yep... I know."

I said earlier making a little bow in the president's management.

"Umm... Hi, I'thousand Hasegawa."

"I'm Hinata Hidaka. Prissy to come across you, Hasegawa."

"Ah, y-yep, same here."

I couldn't aid but feel nervous after having that grin every bit brilliant equally the sun itself cast at me all of a sudden.

"By the way, why are y'all helping Aoi, Hasegawa? ...Ah, I know, you must be Aoi's boyfriend, right!? I'm so jealous of y'all, Aoi!"

""T-that's not information technology!!""

Yusa and I both denied the president's question in harmony with one another.

Yusa then went red in the face and started fidgeting as she went on to say,

"T-at that place's no mode that... Hasegawa would always yard-leave with someone like me! Besides, Hasegawa already has a fine girlfri-... Oh, wait. You said yous aren't going out with Sena Kashiwazaki, didn't yous?"

"Y-yeah, that's correct..."

Hearing Sena's proper name got me flustered again.

"Then are y'all going out with anyone else in the Neighbors Gild?"

"I-I'k non! I'thousand non going out with anyone. ...It's non like that with them."

"Hmm, I see. That makes sense though."

"? What do yous mean by that?"

I asked, thinking it was weird how convinced Yusa looked, to which she replied,

"Eh? Because, you lot're the only guy in the Neighbors Club, correct? Things would get actually awkward if the only super cool guy in the club started going out with i of the girls!"

..................

............

...Whether I'm absurd or not is up for argue, only...

I placed my hand on Yusa's head—— and started patting her.

"H-Hasegawa!? W-why are you patting me on the caput with an expression that looks similar the confront an old homo not long for this world would brand while looking at his newborn granddaughter!?"

"Ah, well~... It's just... I'm happy that someone out there gets it......"

Crap, I might actually cry.

"I-I don't really become it, but... f-feel gratis to pat me equally much as you similar! ...Fuah... It feels so good..."

"Hey~ Earth to Hasegawa~"

The president said with a dumbfounded look on her face, after which I let out a gasp and stopped patting Yusa's caput.

Yusa, who'd been entranced until just a second agone, too came back to her senses and started blushing earlier quickly moving away from me.

"And then, if yous're non her boyfriend and then why?"

"Ah, well, information technology seemed like a lot of work for simply one person, so, you lot know..."

"Hasegawa is a wonderful person who can't overlook those in need!"

"Eh!? No, I wouldn't go that far..."

Yusa'south overwhelming praise left me feeling bewildered.

"I see, that's quite admirable of you! Not many immature men like you these days. Proceed upwards the adept piece of work!"

"...Eh? Oh, yeah..."

"Alright then, permit's get this cleaned upwards!"

All the same Yusa squinted at the president's easygoing comment and said,

"...Hinata, delight go do your own work."

"Kuhaha, no need to be so cold with me. Come on, it'll go faster with three people, won't information technology?"

"...Well, yes, that'due south true, only..."

Yusa then let out a sigh of resignation.

"...Fine. I don't want to bother Hasegawa whatever more than I already have, then let's all practise it together. We might exist able to finish today if you help united states."

☺

The boxes we'd been carrying were plenty heavy to begin with, but the president was able to conduct two of them easily.

Thank you to that we were able to carry twice as many boxes per trip as before, and just similar Yusa said, nosotros ended up finishing moving all the boxes just equally the lord's day had begun to fix.

...This girl is really something...

I let out a sigh of admiration as I followed President Hidaka back to the principal school building.

I'd heard that clubs always fight over getting her to aid them out with stuff, only she actually is an incredibly powerful person, despite her girlish looks.

"Hnn, haven't had a good workout like that in a while!"

The president was busy stretching her arms out full of satisfaction as we walked.

"...Come to think of it, what events were y'all in for the athletics festival, President?" I asked on a whim.

Given her strength and stamina I'd imagine her doing really well at the athletics festival, only oddly enough I tin't think ever seeing her.

"...The ball-toss."

The president said, almost as if pouting nearly it.

"Huh? The ball-toss?"

"My team would've won for sure if I'd actually participated, and then the festival committee told me not to practice any events other than the ones anybody does. Hahhh, I wanted to play at the festival too you know."

She then pursed her lips a bit, and made a biting wait at Yusa.

"T-there was cipher nosotros could exercise about it... It wouldn't exist any fun if everyone knew who'd win right from the start. Information technology would've been a different story if you lot weren't in class iii though."

"Class three...? Ohhh..."

I realized what Yusa meant by that.

The teams for the festival were broken up by form number, which fabricated information technology so the president in class three-3 and Sena in class ii-iii were on the same squad.

If there were ii people who win every event they're in on the same squad, then no other team would've even had a chance of winning, and the entire festival would've been ruined.

The president made another cheerful laugh later on seeing Yusa'south uncomfortable expression.

"Kuhaha, I know. You guys made the right choice. I'm the Educatee Council President after all, it was my duty to put upwardly with information technology so everyone could have fun. What practise yous recollect Hasegawa? Pretty admirable of me, correct?"

"Haha, you'd be more than admirable if yous didn't brag about information technology."

I couldn't help only let out a laugh.

...She's a really interesting person.

Not simply does she put others higher up herself, just she does and so gracefully without a hint of bitterness about it. I tin can run into why so many people would like her.

"Past the way, Hasegawa."

The president stopped walking all of a sudden, and turned around towards me.

"Aye?"

"I like you, would you be interested in joining the Student Council?"

"Huh?"

I stood there, stunned.

"W-wh-where did that come from!?" Yusa yelped, seeming as flustered as me.

"It'due south nothing much. We lost our general affairs managing director recently, and then since the position's open I figured I'd enquire."

"Figured yous'd ask? Isn't that a bit too casual...?"

I was astonished by how carefree she was being almost information technology.

"Hrmm... That's non a bad idea... There's also the rule that says: 'In the effect there is a vacancy in the executive roles, the president is immune to appoint a regular member to the position so long every bit the other executive members agree,' then it wouldn't be breaking the rules either."

"Now you also, Yusa!?"

Yusa connected to stare at me with a serious expect on her face, despite my yelling, and said,

"The executive roles in the Student Council are currently fulfilled by President Hinata, Vice-President Akane Ohtomo, our treasurer, me, and our clerk, Karin Jinguuji, but we ever run into trouble because we're so short on hands."

"Carrying all these boxes was supposed to exist the general diplomacy manager'south work, too," the president added.

"We have to bustle and finish the preparations for the Christmas party and ski grooming in January too, so right now we can apply all the assist we can go. The four of u.s.a. are all girls also, which presents problems for united states sometimes... Having a guy effectually would be a huge help! I'thousand sure you lot'd be perfect for the chore, Hasegawa!"

Yusa seemed strangely enthusiastic as she tried to convince me to join, but all I did was sigh.

"I'd be perfect for the job...? Do you honestly think that?"

"? What do you mean?"

Yusa tilted her head in defoliation, then I asked her,

"...Exercise you honestly not know what everyone else at school thinks of me?"

Yusa paused briefly to think before cutely tilting her head again, and replying,

"Umm, exercise they all think...... that y'all're a super cool bad boy?"

"You lot're the only one who thinks that! Thank you lot!"

Her answer was so off the marker that I ended up thanking her before regaining my composure and letting out another sigh.

"Hahh... You lot're completely wrong. ...I'm not a bad boy, just plain 'bad'... Basically, like a yankee or a delinquent. My hair, my confront, and a agglomeration of other little stuff I do makes everyone think that."

"What!?"

"Hrm... Now that you mention it your hair does stand out a bit at this school, and y'all look menacing. I can see why people would call back y'all're a runaway."

I ended up making a wry smiling after hearing the president's edgeless evaluation, and said,

"Do you get information technology at present? If you permit someone similar me into the Student Quango information technology'll just brand you guys look b——"

"Only a fool would judge someone based on their appearance lonely. I couldn't care less what people like that call back."

The president declared without a hint of hesitation, as if it were only natural.

I opened my optics broad in surprise, and simply stood in that location staring at the president's confront.

Come up to recall of it, she hasn't fabricated a single comment about my appearance all solar day today, permit alone acted scared of me because of it.

Up until now, I've had people human activity afraid of me like virtually students practise, think I'm a yankee like Sena and Kate did when we first met, tease me for looking like a Yankee like Yozora and Rika practice, or in rare cases accept some weird nevertheless positive impression of me like Yusa and Yukimura, all because of how I look.

This daughter before me might be the showtime person I've ever met who's the same age equally me just doesn't care about how I wait at all.

Don't estimate someone based on how they expect—— It's easy enough to say, but doing it is hard.

Fifty-fifty I sometimes retrieve "She's got a beautiful face" or "He looks scary" despite having met my off-white share of trouble because of people doing that to me. In fact, I even imagined 'how much easier my life would be if I had that kind of friendly appearance' when I saw the president requite her speech at the athletics festival, too. I don't think anyone can really aid themselves from thinking like that.

And that'due south to say nothing nigh the almost-impossible act of completely ignoring the advent of someone you've just met.

Hinata Hidaka, huh...

I can't believe someone similar her exists... and in the same school as me, besides.

"What'southward the matter, Hasegawa? Why are you spacing out?"

"Ah, i-information technology'south nothing!"

I hurriedly tried to deed normal after the president gave me a dubious look.

"I see. So, how about it?"

I was honestly at a loss.

I thought to myself that working for this person wouldn't exist half bad—— in fact, information technology'd probably be amazing.

Even so I shook that idea off, and told her,

"...S-sorry, but I think the Student Council is likewise much for me..."

"I see..."

Upon seeing the down-hearted expect on the president'southward face, I quickly added,

"B-but, if you always need help with transmission labor stuff like this again, then just say the discussion! I've usually got enough of free fourth dimension!"

I blurted information technology out so fast information technology was as if I'd done information technology by reflex.

"By reflex"—— In other words, information technology wasn't an excuse to avoid the Neighbors Club, it was how I truly felt.

After hearing that, both the president'southward and Yusa'south faces broke out into huge smiles.

"I see! Then then, can you come again tomorrow? The library staff asked usa to assist sort some books."

"O-of form, no problem at all!"

"A fine answer. Today must be my lucky twenty-four hour period, coming together such a hard worker every bit yourself! It was worth sneaking away from Akane to come out here, kuhahaha!"

The president said full of cheer, along with a loud, hearty laugh.
