“I’m home~”
I say it out of habit even though no one’s here.
First things first, I close every window in the house. It’s not like I’m anti-ventilation or anything. But what I’m about to do requires all the windows to be shut.
…Alright! All closed. Now to bury my face in the cushion, and…
“Aaaaaah!!! I did it again!!!! I did it again!!!! What the hell am I doing?! I knew even the smallest thing could drastically change the original story! So why the hell did I say I’d join the club?!?!”
Is it hopeless? Is it impossible for me to follow the original story? Maybe I’m just bad at following the original story. If someone asked me my weakness in an interview, I’d have to say I’m terrible at following the original story.
It’s confirmed the cultural festival won’t follow the original story, but joining the club has made things irreversible.
“Aaaaaah!!! I’m such an idiot!!!!”
Ugh, what have I been doing all this time? It’s only been about two months, but it might all be wasted.
No matter how I think about it, this time should have been avoidable. Why can’t I just follow the original story?
Huh? What am I gonna do? I’m already in a pretty bad spot, and it’s only just the end of the first semester. There’s still so much left to do.
“Haaah~”
Yeah, I’m sighing. How pathetic am I?
I deviated from the original story for the Shibamura thing because I regretted it, but this time is different.
“Niiro is way too cute!!!”
So what was I supposed to do? she said that she will be lonely! Hearing that, my heart just melted. She’d be lonely without me? She wouldn’t be lonely if I was there? She wants me? Hearing that, joining the club was the only option!
“Hisada-chan is way too cute too!!!”
Plus, Hisada-chan seemed like she wanted me to join too, right? I mean, she grabbed my hem really tight! That’s basically like saying “Don’t go anywhere,” right?! So I said I’d join the club to mean “I’m not going anywhere,” you know?
But apparently, after doing all that, those two didn’t really want me to join after all.
…Huh?
Is that even possible?
Yeah, that’s right. I was just being toyed with by those two. Because, honestly, they didn’t want me to join. There’s no way they’d want someone as loud, insensitive, and stupid as me. Why didn’t I realize something so obvious?
It’s obvious why they lied and made me join even though they didn’t want me. They wanted a junior.
Remember that time during the orientation camp when Niiro made me bring her bag? she got a taste for that and wanted a convenient junior. I didn’t catch on, thinking maybe she couldn’t do it without me… and I totally fell for it.
Those two are unbelievable women. Anyone would be a goner if they pulled that kind of thing. …They’re devilish women, those two.
Or maybe I’m just the type who’ll get caught up in a marriage scam someday. Maybe it’s actually good I got caught now. If I get scammed again in the future, it’ll be my second time, so I might bounce back faster.
When will I ever learn? Both Niiro and Hisada-chan like Saotome. I’m just the best friend type. When will I finally get it? Even in my past life, I misunderstood, fell for her, confessed, got rejected, and became a laughingstock! Have I forgotten already? …Nah, I want to forget quickly.
Turns out Saotome was the only one who wanted me. Guess what you really need is a best friend. Best friends never betray you.
Ugh, I wanna withdraw. I wanna quit the club right now. But I already said I’d join! And if those two pull that stuff again, I know I’d say I’d join anyway!
This time really was a mistake, just this once…
Fumichan-senpai’s event starts by hearing about her past. That’s where you learn why she’s so into middle school fantasy and why she wants to keep doing club activities.
Originally, Fumichan-senpai loved the anime Magical Girl Ringo-chan and wanted to become Ringo-chan herself. Everyone around her made fun of her, and she almost quit, but her grandmother was the only one who praised her, so she kept going. But then she also learned her grandmother was sick
She’d intended to just enjoy her hobby at home, but when she became a high school student, she found this club. The seniors who were already there accepted Fumi-senpai. She was so happy to meet people who understood her, people other than her grandmother. Precisely because she was so happy, she wants to keep going with this club, this place full of memories. That’s what you hear.
Next, they face off against the Game Club for control of the clubroom. After winning, a call comes in saying Grandma is critical and to come immediately. Saotome takes her on his bike to the hospital. Though it was a bit rough, she’s glad she could say what she needed to, boosting Saotome’s favorability.
That concludes Fumi-senpai’s event.
Yeah, I already know Fumi-senpai’s grandmother is sick. I have so much I want to tell my own grandmother too. That’s why I’m pushing myself like this, even after reincarnating.
I know that in the original story, Fumi-senpai could only say a little of what she wanted to her grandmother. That really hurts my heart.
To follow the original story’s path, I have to be prepared for that.
…As long as I don’t join the club.
If I don’t join the club, even if things proceed as in the original story, I can just pretend I don’t know. Because this is the world that originally existed.
If I get involved with the original story, I gain the right to change it. I can choose to follow the original story, or I can destroy it. That’s why I didn’t want to get involved with the original story this time.
…No, that’s just an excuse. I’m just making up reasons to avoid getting involved at all costs. The truth is, if I didn’t join the club, it wouldn’t hurt my heart quite as much.
Sorry, but this time I’m going to make sure things go exactly according to the original story. I don’t have the energy left to worry about other people anymore. I don’t care how much it hurts my heart.
I’ve got a ton of things I want to say to Grandma too. If I can talk to her even a little bit, then sorry, but you’ll just have to put up with it.
“Hiro-chan, dinner’s ready.”
“I don’t want any.”
“But you won’t have any energy if you don’t eat.”
“Shut up!”
Can you believe it? That was my last conversation with my grandmother? …I regret it like hell.
I don’t want to use the chance I finally got for someone else.
