And after school.
“Are we really going to have a study group?
“You’re totally unmotivated.”
“Where should we hold it? You wanna come to my house?”
“Great.”
“No, it has to be in a public place so I have an excuse if I’m falsely accused.”
At least someplace where people can see you, but not someplace where it’s all women.
“You were like that when we talked before.”
“Serena? You and Tsukasa kun met alone? Why?”
“Hey, Mei, you’re eyes…..”
“Ah, that time we talked before at Macs.”
“Oh, that time, ahaha…speaking of which, what did you two talk about?”
“It’s Hoshizawa’s private matter, so I can’t tell you about it either.”
“I see. Well, I guess I can’t help it then…”
“You can’t look at me like that, I’m a tight-lipped guy. When I was in middle school, I was bullied by a girl who told me not to tell anyone.”
“…I’m sorry, I won’t ask you again.”
“Tsukasa, you really are…”
That was pretty annoying, and still is.
“What should I do, everyone is thinking the same thing this time of year, so the library and the family restaurants are all booked up.”
“It costs money to use karaoke, doesn’t it?”
“…We don’t have a choice, let’s go to my place.”
“Eh? Tsukasa kun, are you sure?”
“Don’t you live alone?”
“Yeah, and I’ve got cameras at the entrance and inside my apartment.”
“Aren’t you too security conscious?”
“When I was in junior high school, Nagisa and her friends came to my house.”
“She’s a pain in the ass……”
Sure.
“They were conscious about that, though.”
“Hey, don’t you think she might be the stalker?”
“The world doesn’t see it that way. That’s why I have cameras.”
“But it must have cost you a lot of money.”
“I don’t have love, but I have money. It’s been that way since I was a kid.”
“It’s not funny.”
“Ahaha…”
You don’t have to laugh.
“Let’s go.”
“Is it within walking distance?”
“Yeah, it’ll be fine.”
“Hmm…”
What should we do about dinner…well, I can buy something at the convenience store after these guys get back.
I was walking along the street, listening to Mei and Hoshizawa’s inconsequential conversation, and soon arrived at my apartment.
“Come in. I don’t have slippers or anything.”
“Sorry to bother you.”
“Heh, you’re surprisingly clean.”
“There’s nothing to do back home, and I’ve been doing the cleaning since I was a kid.”
“Oh, I see.”
“H-heh…..”
It might be a good idea to have some sort of hobby.
Or club activities? But there’s no such thing as a men-only club, even the baseball team has female managers.
“Well, you can sit down on a cushion or something. Are you okay with coffee?”
“That’s very thoughtful of you.”
“You usually serve cookies, too. It’s like a set for guests.”
“Of course I serve cookies, You’re our guest. I didn’t serve cookies the last time we went to a barbecue.”
“You’re very precise, aren’t you?”
“They don’t come these days, but in the past, my lawyer and other teachers often came here. If my mother caused any trouble, the teacher might come over.”
“Oh, I see…”
“Haa….”
“I’ve got some sugar and milk over there, just add whatever you like.”
“Okay, I’ll have some.”
“I don’t want it. I want it bitter.”
Well, let’s study.
When the three of us were studying like that, it went much better than I had expected.
“You guys are smarter than I thought you’d be…”
“You too, Mei, of course.”
“It’s so fun when we all teach each other !”
At first I thought why should I study with the girls, but I guess I underestimated them.
I’m sure that Mei is much smarter than I am.
Yeah, it was quite a meaningful study time.
“Oh yeah, Tsukasa.”
“What’s up, Hoshizawa?”
“Why do you call only Mei by her first name?”
“I don’t know her last name.”
“….Are you serious?”
“…..Erm, it’s Hinata. Hinata Mei.”
“Hinata? Even your last name is hilarious.”
“Oh, I knew you’d react that way.”
“What?”
“You’re so rude. Don’t you think it’s a very pretty name?”
“You shut up for a second.”
“Haa? You wanna give it a go?”
“What? I’ll take you on.”
–Ding dong.
Who’s there? At this hour?
“Nii san ! Are you being bullied by a gal ! !”
“It’s Kokoa, why does she know?”
“I’m not being bullied.”
Why did Kokoa come?
