Our school is a new school created by the Konohana Zaibatsu, but due to its location, there was a problem that it was difficult to make noise at the school festival.
So, when I became student council president, I decided to solve this problem by holding a joint festival with other schools.
I, Konohana Sakuya, could easily take control of other schools’ festivals with my skills. I thought so, but three students from …… the other school prevented me from seizing control of the festival.
The first is Hiiragi Tsumugi.
She came here as a student exchange student, but her free-spirited and angelic behavior has completely knocked the boys of our school off their feet.
Although she is not so different from me and my sister Hina in terms of appearance, her words and behavior that are acceptable to the boys are so frightening that I began to envy her to the extent that I wondered if she was doing it by calculation.
And her attitude, which was not accepted by the same gender, led to dissatisfaction among the girls. And the boys and girls got along badly, and the conflict between the boys and girls deepened on a school-wide basis.
I ended up working hard during the school festival to settle the differences between the boys and the girls. I think she was a very bad woman if she was trying to do that.
I myself wanted to warn her, but since the exchange was only during the cultural festival, I made the choice to hope that the passing of time would put an end to it.
And the second is Otsuki Shizuku. A brilliant girl who could compete with me as acting student council president.
From my initial research, I had the impression that she was just an ordinary girl, but she was extremely talented in everything she did and seemed to be in complete control of the school over there.
I can only wonder if Hiiragi Tsumugi was sent there with an understanding of her personality. When I asked her about it, she evaded my question.
And I heard that she is dating that Hirasawa Reo. I was wondering why that man, whom I, Konohana Sakuya, the heir to the Konohana Zaibatsu, had turned down in order to gain romantic experience, was dating that ordinary girl, but now I think I understand.
When I asked her if she would like to work as my right-hand, she replied that she would like to become Reo-kun’s wife, which left me speechless…
The last one is Kogure Ryoma.
He is a hateful man who hurt my beloved sister, Hina. He was a man I absolutely …… must never forgive.
”Chairman, this is the record of the activities of the executive committee of the school over there.”
“Yes.”
“The boys on the executive committee of the school over there, they are awesome. They solve most of the problems of both schools and are called the saviors by some.”
I think about it after receiving the report from the student council officers. The students of our school. Especially since the boys have become useless due to the influence of Hiiragi Tsumugi, I hear that that ordinary guy solves many of the problems that arise at the cultural festival.
It is regrettable, but that man is the one whose name is heard the most in both schools. He has shown his influence to that extent. How can he work so hard? I don’t think I can forgive him for trying so hard at a festival like this …….
[I don’t think I’ll be forgiven. But I hope I can make amends for my sins.]
Is this what you call atonement?
The fact is that the school’s student council president has to admit it, but as Konohana Sakuya, I would never want to admit it. No matter how hard you try, the fact that you hurt Hina will never be reversed. If you want to be happy without Hina, no matter what you do, you’ll be unhappy …….
“Nee sama, are you there?”
“Hina.”
The one who entered the student council room was my younger sister, Hina. She had an accident in junior high school and it took her quite a while to return to school. From high school, the Konohana Zaibatsu is watching over her, and she was allowed to attend this school,…….
“I can’t wait to go to the school festival! I’m really looking forward to it.”
The incident caused amnesia, and since then Hina’s personality has changed dramatically. In the past, she was shy and an indoor person, but now she actively engages with others and actively participates in club activities and has a good school life.
Everyone involved in the Konohana Zaibatsu says so. Thanks to the incident, Hina has become a decent person.
The Hina who couldn’t talk to people properly, was weak-minded, and daydreamed all the time, is no longer anywhere to be found.
“The other day someone confessed to me. I rejected it. I feel sorry about it, but I didn’t feel right with the person I was talking to. …… What does nee sama do at times like this?”
If it had been Hina before she lost her memory, this kind of question would never have come up.
She became brighter, more talkative, talked amicably with her friends, and was able to solve any problems by herself.
Since entering high school, I have really been less concerned about Hina. I should be really happy about it, but I can’t be happy because of the circumstances.
“Do you prefer me the way I was before I lost my memory?”
“I don’t think so!”
“That’s true for nee sama. Everyone else says it’s better now. It’s lonely without my memories, though, and it gives me a headache when I try to remember.”
“Hina……”
“I don’t know what will happen when I get my memory back, but, well, I guess we’ll just have to see then.”
If such lightness had been there before I lost my memory, I wonder if I could have treated Hina more kindly. I took Hina with me to the school building of the other high school, which is comparatively large.
We were going to inspect the entire festival and check to see if any of our students were causing any problems. As student council president, my vote will lead to the outcome of this joint festival event. I have to watch carefully.
“Nee sama! There’s a huge line over there. Let’s go there.”
“Chinese restaurant ……. It’s very unusual for a cultural festival.
A tent is set up outside, and many desks and chairs are lined up. I didn’t expect them to set up store in the schoolyard. …… It takes a very powerful person to secure a place like this.
“Welcome~!”
A bright voice echoed as Hina and I approached. I looked in that direction and saw a beautiful black-haired girl dressed in the now-fashionable Chi Pao. I knew that this person was familiar to me and that she was attracting the attention of the students of our school.
“Oh, it’s Chairman Konohana and Hina-chan, isn’t it?”
It was Hiiragi Tsumugi, a girl with long black hair and a lovely face.
“Hiiragi-san? I wonder if this Chinese restaurant is your class’s entertainment.”
“Yes, it is! It’s very busy. There is something about it that makes people stare at me.”
I think it is because she is wearing such a chi-Pao, which has a slit at the breast and emphasizes her back and thigh line.
How could they get permission to do that? And I can see the devilishness of this girl who wears it and appeals to the boys. The boys in our school were crazy about Hiiragi Tsumugi.
“I want you two to vote for my class, so I’ll prepare a special seat for you. Please come this way~!”
Except for Hiiragi-san, the rest of the students seem to be regular Chi-pao. I wonder if the boys are Chang Pao. Only Hirasawa Reo was different from the other boys in that he was dressed in a shiny chan pao that was the envy of all the female students.
Compared to junior high school, he has grown taller and more mature in appearance.
I still hold a grudge against him for refusing my confession, but I feel that by choosing him as a potential boyfriend, I was not mistaken. He took me to my seat.
“Here is the menu. Here you go.”
“Thank you…!”
There was a beautiful golden-haired girl with foreign blood in her hair who was far more beautiful than Hiiragi Tsumugi.
She was also wearing a special Chipao, and her sexiness was incomparable to that of Tsumugi Hiiragi. However, she looked at me and Hina with a critical eye.
“Nee san, she is said to be the most beautiful girl in this school. ……”
“Probably. But I’m surprised. To think that there would be a girl of this level of beauty in such an ordinary school…”
“I wonder if she will be competing with that person in today’s beauty contest. I’m looking forward to it.”
Hina smiles happily. Before she lost her memory, Hina would never have said something like that.
But the costumes are also very well made. Was it professionally made? But looking at the slits on her chest and waist, I think it’s a little blatant.
“Giro”
“Nee san, is that person staring at you?”
“I think it would be better to eat quickly and leave. Then I’ll take your order.”
“Arisa! You’ll be serving over there! Smile, smile, smile!”
Just as she was about to say something unpleasant, a familiar girl interrupted her again. The girl tries to take my order for me.
“Otsuki san! That’s a very pretty outfit.”
“I see you are also wearing a different Chi Pao from the rest.”
“Yes, I am. Ugh, why am I in such a sexy qipao, not just a pretty girl like Arisa or Tsumugi…”
There seems to be some deeper reason behind this. Otsuki-san hands me the menu.
“The main chef’s authentic fried rice is the most popular item in the restaurant. I hope you will try it.”
“I see.”
“Oh, by the way, I also recommend the shumai. The most delicious one is this one.”
It seemed as if they were competing with each other. I decided to order those two for the time being.
“this fried rice is too good!”
“I can eat as many bowls as I want! More!”
“I think this place will be the top seller at the festival.”
It seems that the food was quite popular. Although their costumes are a bit revealing, they are serving their customers well, and the quality of their food and beverage is high enough to be considered a restaurant.
They’ve put a lot of effort into the restaurant, as they’ve set up an outdoor location. I can sense that they are determined to be at the top of the sales list.
“Acting Chairman Otsuki, who is the main chef?”
“He is.”
Otsuki-san points to a man wielding a large pot in the open kitchen, and my anger rises.
“Hina, we are leaving.”
“Eh, why onee sama?”
“I don’t want you to meet that guy. There’s no way I know what’s in there.”
“There’s no way there’s anything in there.”
A blonde girl interrupted me and started to argue with me.
“Ryoma’s food is always full of love! Don’t say random things!”
“….”
“She’s right onee san. Everyone says it’s delicious, …… and besides.”
Hina looks at that man who is frantically wielding a pot and ladle.
“I want to try his cooking.”
“Tch.”
“It’s safe to say it’s properly heated too. I would like you two to eat it if you can. Let him know what he’s doing now.”
Otsuki-san brings a plate with two servings of fried rice and shumai on it and lays it out on the desk where Hina and I sit. It was hot and the spices were appetizing. Hina quickly takes a spoonful of the fried rice.
“It’s so delicious! I think it’s the best I’ve ever had!
Hurry up, onee sama, hurry up!”
I didn’t really want to eat it, but I was already getting stares from everyone around me, and as the student council president, I had the dignity to do so. I couldn’t afford any more ugliness. I took a bite of the fried rice.
“….It’s not bad.”
“Tch, what’s that? If it’s delicious, then it’s delicious.”
“Arisa, please be quiet for a bit! I’m glad that was the case. I’m glad that Hina san liked it too.”
“Yes, it was very delicious. I wish I could thank you in person, but he seems to be very busy.”
The restaurant now has a huge line and everyone is busy. If we had not been in this position, we might have waited an hour. But after being told to eat by acting chairman Otsuki, I had no choice but to eat too.
“How is it? He had been trying to improve the taste all along for this festival. That’s why this lineup is here. I hope you will admit that.”
I glanced around and saw that the students from both schools seemed to be anticipating what I would say. No one knows about me and Hina’s existence. So I can’t say anything unnecessary. There are times when I have to act as student council president rather than my feelings.
“Aside from him personally, I think it’s a good store. He is well organized as a class and has the skills to make it a popular store, as expected of the acting president Otsuki.”
“Oh, that Chairman Konohana approves!”
“The actuality is, it’s a very good place.”
“Wow, it’s quite a tough one. There are still today and tomorrow. I hope you will give our class a high evaluation after seeing all of them.”
“After seeing all of them. Hina, let’s go.”
“Yes~ ……”
“Hina?”
“It’s nothing. Let’s go, nee sama”
We left the busy Chinese restaurant. Kogure Ryoma, damn, I hope you don’t upset my feelings any more.
