Across the distance you could see a little, the two completed tents standing side by side. While talking together with the other girls, Shinohara held up a gourd-shaped war fan. Both of the tents were exclusive to the girls. In other words, the boys, now, were simply sleeping outdoors so that they could beco stronger with this experience.
I feel that the majority of our classmates have never slept outdoors before. Luckily, it is sumr and although there is no wind blowing, make no mistake there are still so hardships to endure. Sotis it is troubleso as bugs are targeting our hands and feet and when it gets dark the visibility around is quite bad. Especially in the grass under our feet, mysterious bugs are jumping and flying around creating an ominous feeling.
Being a child of the city, all this seed repulsive to . Spending a whole week on this bed, already seems impossible. But from understanding Ike's views of point consumption, it is different and requires the utmost resistance and the ability of a person to take action.
When the bugs from the ground ca to bed, then we changed the sheets. We were even discussing if we should cut down so branches from the trees around. We should really figure out what to do, instead of absurdly praying for sothing to happen.
Hirata, after finishing the tent for the girls, ca towards us while wiping the sweat off from his forehead.
"Ehm... Ayanokouji, if it is ok, could I talk to you for a minute?"
With this low profile behaviour and an almost apologetic look, he continued talking to .
"Coming out to et with the flashlight at night is quite eerie. We may agree or not how we use or not use points, but, apart from that, I believe that it is necessary to make sure that we have light at night-ti. However, that cannot be done just with Ayanokouji's persistence."
Certainly I wanted to avoid having no light at all in the night. It was a pain if you had to go to the toilet at night-ti. I wanted to hear what we should have done about it. After thinking about it a little, Hirata said.
"In this area, we can make a bonfire. We can look for branches and pick them up from the trees around us"
We have many guys here, we can rely on them into undertaking such a task.
"Well, then, let's go find the right ones to help."
"Thank you! Ah, but do not go alone, it is dangerous, it would be better if you take soone else with you."
As we reached to that conclusion, I had to search for a partner. Standing still on that spot, gazing up at the sky I found Horikita. As she caught looking at her, she started walking towards .
"You are usually uncooperative, but now you are really easy-going, granting his favour."
"I only heard about his request to you, anyway one way or another Hirata can save himself from this sohow. The details are not a part of our work. Just the working part."
A part of the students will voluntary mobilize and work in order to help the class. The position of the caste system in the class will change depending on whether or not you can make a successful move in such tis.
"He is comparatively at the centre of the class, so that is why he can't accept to rely on you."
"For good or for worse, D class relies on Hirata and Karuizawa. With the exception of these two mbers, if we unify the strength of other people, it is nonexistent and imcompetent"
Standing beside Horikita expressed clearly the situation of the class about its ability and talent but, so other abilities like generosity and dignity, we are lacking of them to the point that it could be fatal for us. It is true, even for myself, I do not think that I possess these two important abilities.
Already causing a stir, Kushida said that she was overexerting herself since she couldn't afford to bear the brunt of following troubles around. Even now, sowhere, she was doing sothing with strenuous effort.
"What if you would beco Hirata's assistant? Moreover, for the class' sake, you'd rather do it for yourself."
", his assistant? Don't joke with this! If that is the case, then I'd rather have the skill of a mongoose"
"The skill of a mongoose?..."
No matter what I am going to say now, it feels kind of offensive for Hirata, no, it is definitely offensive.
"It is just a joke! How he is different or not from a mongoose, well, that's another story. This ti, there is nothing on which I can beco stronger. I have to think if there is a clear goal. Not only about myself, but to think on how to use the points. To what degree can we use the points or how exactly. I still don't have an answer for that."
Talking quietly, we went our separate ways and I found myself close to the tent that was just being set up. For the ti being I am searching for an easy-going partner to go together for branches. Looking for one into the guys circle I head for the riverbank and I see Sudou gazing up at the sky. I wonder if it was him who followed Ike previously, or perhaps he had beco a guy to rely on after all. He might actually take action and do sothing in order to help a friend in need.
"Hey, Sudou... We need to make a bonfire, so we have to pick up so branches, will you help ?"
"Ehhh... What's up with that? If it is a troubleso task, I think I'll pass".
He told that without making a move to get up at all. But, not being in the mood to search for another partner, I persisted further.
"It may be troubleso, but we are going to gather around here close to the camp."
"That is exactly what a troubleso task is, I am sorry, but I prefer to swim in the water. Standing up, he took the bag that was placed beside and head for the water.
"Well... If that's the case."
As I was denied, earlier I noticed a couple of girls chatting close to the tent with Yamauchi, so I decided to ask him.
"We need branches so that we can have a bonfire, I will go and pick up a few, but, could soone co and help ?"
"Eh... I sll trouble... Look, Kanji's team and I found a good spot, right? Our minds are occupied right now, so I am really tired. Sorry but, I'll pass. Let rest."
Being dumped like that, I didn't feel like having to answer him in a strong manner. It is too botherso. As things are going, my chances about ending up with a companion that I can rely on and actually talk to, is close to zero. Horikita is not in the right "condition" for to ask her a favour. Kushida will be all out on the girls' team, anyway.
"In the end.... I am alone."
Just in ti that I made the decision to head towards the woods all alone, just like she was peeking at my situation, Sakura appeared.
"Erm... Is it ok if I go with you?
It was like she had overheard my conversation that I had earlier and understood my situation.
"Eh?.. I am thankful, but are you sure it's alright with you? Because you look tired, maybe it would be better for you to rest."
Sakura just earlier had accompanied in a search in the woods. So, she must be tired already and she should not force herself further.
"I will be alright. But if I am left here... well... It feels a bit discomforting."
While saying that, she turned her back to the girls of our class. I feel like Sakura's situation resembles my own. Having to live in a community, as a part of a team made us feel bitter.
"Well, then let's go."
Since Kouenji is not with us, we can take it easy and I match my pace with Sakura's.
"Hey!"
As soon as we were ready to enter the woods, I heard a voice behind us calling us to halt and soone rushed imdiately towards us.
"I thought that I could help, too!"
Yamauchi appeared in front of us even before we had ti to decide, however, I feel like his idea of coming together with us is rather odd.
"Eh?... Is it ok?"
"Hey, co on, now. When in trouble, it is the ti for a friend to co to the rescue, right? Sakura?
"Eh? Ye... yes."
Looking like she is shrinking, Sakura hid behind my back and bowed her head in agreent. Yamauchi did not make any actual conversation with her, but it is a good chance for Sakura to increase her circle of friends.
