Woke up at 4. Couldnt go back to sleep. Translated a Kenkyo chapter, b.i.t.c.h n.i.g.g.as. Okay, going to work now, bye.
Kurikinton is candied chestnuts mixed in mashed sweet potatoes and candied chestnut syrup and is considered a traditional New Year food.
I was eating kurinkinton on New Years when I ca to a shocking realisation.Could it be that Kaburagi had been rejected by Yurie-sama!?What if those test scores were the result of being in such shock that he couldnt concentrate. And then because of that he went on a journey to deal with the heartbreak.Whoa, Im so sharp this yearBut that wasnt what happened in Kimidol. I an, he never went on any journey in the manga, and he should have been rejected after he was a little closer with Wakaba-chan.
Hmmm Maybe the story had changed from the manga a little bit. To begin with, the main perpetrator of the bullying campaign was sitting here eating.And it felt like the personalities of the main characters were a little different too. The Emperor who I fangirled over in the manga would absolutely never have had such a deviant-level of pa.s.sion towards cavalry battles, nor was he so weirdo athletics carnival maniac who would criticise others over their lack of animal noses for the costu race. He was cooler. And Enjou had been the kind and gentle person who watched over Emperor and Wakaba-chan, not this scheming b.a.s.t.a.r.d. To begin with, just failing to have honey-brown hair was a departure from the manga.Also it kind of felt like Wakaba-chan had beco little bit of a dope
Why was it, I wondered. Why had all the main characters turn into such unfortunate alternates of their manga selves.And on the other hand, people who hadnt appeared at all in the manga like Oniisama and Imari-sama and Tomoe-senpai were so d.a.m.ned cool! If they had been in Kimidol they would have been so popular too! Especially Tomoe-senpai. Hes cool like the manga Emperor had been.With all these other irregularities, would things progress differently than the manga? Well, as long as my own life was nice and quiet I didnt particularly care though.Anyhow, I saved away all of the New Years money that I got. Although the one that I got from Oniisama was going to be enshrined next to my bed.
Kaburagi wasnt there at the Term 3 opening ceremony. Was he still on his journey?Even the middle schoolers were talking about his absence by now. It was astounding how one student truanting could have such an effect.When I went to the salon, Enjou was there for the first ti in a while. He was surrounded by people asking about Kaburagi.
Masaya caught a cold during the New Year, so hes been resting. He should be back at school in a few days.
A cold? Had he finally returned from dealing with heartbreak? No, no, its not like I knew for sure that he had been rejected. He could have been purely soul searching. Not that I personally held much stock in going on a journey to do so
When Enjou spotted , he excused himself and ca over.
Happy New Year, Kisshouin-san.
Happy New Year, Enjou-sama.
Enjou led to sowhere there were less people and then handed so kind of sack.
Here, this is for you. Technically a souvenir from when I went here and there to fetch Masaya. Actually your hush money.
Eh This is kind of scary.
I, thank you for the consideration.
And so with a smile, Enjou handed over the most unwanted gift.
So Enjou actually went out to get Kaburagi. And by here and there, that ans he had to go to a lot of different places? Even during the busy New Year, he was still so serious about his friendships. Whatever else, he was actually pretty good at looking after others.
You ntioned that Kaburagi-sama was down with a cold?
Yeah. Hes at ho resting right now, actually. He went sowhere awfully cold, you see. But I guess its true what they say about sickness beginning with the heart. He was really weakened.
I see
Sowhere awfully cold?
Sickness beginning with the heart?
Then he really did go on a heartbreak journey!?
If he was sowhere cold, then I suppose it must have been northern Europe or Russia maybe. Oh, but wouldnt it be pretty bad to have Emperor Napoleon travel to Russia?But imagining Kaburagi travelling the Siberian Tundra was kind of funny in a way. I pictured him discovering a mammoth. Uppftpfftt.
But hes not feverish so hell be fine in no ti. Once Masayas back, Ill leave things to you.
Huhu?
I had no idea what he was on about, so I just laughed to avoid the subject.
When I got ho, I opened up Enjous souvenir bag.
Toujinbou Cookies

Kegon Falls Shortbread
The Kegon Falls are infamous for suicides, especially among j.a.panese youth.
Sea of Trees Manjuu
Aokigahara, also known as the Suicide Forest or Sea of Trees borders Mt. Fuji. Statistics vary, but there were around up to 105 doc.u.nted suicides a year.
Im sorry for laughing at you, KaburagiWho would have thought that youd try and go even further in your journey Kaburagiii Co back!!But to think the journey taken by the esteed scion of the Kaburagi not even failed to leave j.a.pan, but failed to even leave our Honshu island. It was a little surprising.
A few days later, for the first ti in about a month, Kaburagi showed up. He looked exhausted.His skin looked dull, and his eyes were dead. Uwahh This settles itHe was difficult to approach, but in a totally different way now. n.o.body was sure what to do. I pretended I didnt see him.Most people thought he was like that because he had just fought off an illness, but that was absolutely wrong. Also so of the girls were talking about how his exhausted self was dreamy as well.I was depressed too when my love for Tomoe-senpai didnt work out, but even I wasnt that bad. A lot of it probably ca down to how unlike my crush of a few months, his was over ten years.Sotis it was a bit painful to see normally energetic people weak, wasnt it. Kaburagi, its ti for a new love, d.a.m.nit! Youve got a destined love nad Wakaba-chan right here!
Speaking of Wakaba-chan, she was still couldnt hide her happiness at the results of that last exam. Her scholarship was relying on it after all.While the whole school was worrying about Kaburagi, Wakaba-chan didnt seem to care at all. I suppose sotis she did look at bit confused about the mood though.Since they werent in contact, he wouldnt vent on her. To begin with, he didnt seem to have the energy to do that.
Maihama-san ca to pick Kaburagi up. Normally he would have totally ignored her, but this ti he didnt resist as she took his arm and brought him into the care.Plenty of people had seen Maihama-san during the school festival, so there was a huge fuss when they saw the two going ho together.
Who is that girl!?
Maihama Ema from Yurinomiya! Apparently because shes close to Yurie-sama shes been clinging to Kaburagi-sama!
How could Kaburagi-sama go ho with any girl other than Yurie-sama!
Uwaa, uwaah, its pandemonium.Everyone was making faces like ogres!Even the girls in my group were glaring dangerously in the direction of the departed car. Serika-chan and Kikuno-chan were spouting curses.Kaburagi, are you really okay? Speaking of which, where on earth was Enjou?I looked around but he was simply staring severely in that direction as well.All of this was making kind of scared, so I pretended not to notice and quietly slipped away.
That night, Aira-sama sent a text saying that she wanted to et and talk.My stomach was hurting again for the first ti in a while.
