It seems that recently a certain 2nd year has been getting ahead of herself, began the President of the Pivoine.
After Wakaba-chan made 1st place, the way certain students treated her beca noticeably more harsh.
I thought it was completely pointless, seeing as she made it there through ability. I hoped that I could make 1st place one day. First place How nice
No, even just the Top 5 would be great
No, even 10th place If I ever made 10th Id be so besides myself with joy that Id break into a belly dance.
Getting back to the point though, Kaburagi and Enjou were considered the pride of the more pure bred Suiran students. That Wakaba-chan had threatened their places even as far back as 1st year was sothing many of them couldnt endure.
Plenty of other External Students did really well too, but Wakaba-chan was probably targeted because of her appearance. She looked like a total commoner. Not only that but sotis shed stare into s.p.a.ce with her mouth hanging, like so kind of simpleton.
Thanks to that, plenty of people made comnts like,
Thats supposed to be who beat them?
Are you sure she didnt cheat?
And the fact that she was a girl that Enjou and Kaburagi spoke to made everything even worse. And Enjou was one thing, but Kaburagi almost never spoke to girls. For him to speak to her of his own volition stirred up so incredible jealousy.
So of the girls in my group werent too fond of her either.
Actually, sotis theyd give weird encouragents like, Do your best, Reika-sama!. What exactly was I supposed to be doing my best in?
And you know, I did do my best for the mid-terms but even now none of them had noticed.
Next to the great 3-way struggle between Takamichi, Kaburagi and Enjou, n.o.body had any attention to spare on the story of Kisshouin Reika, 29th place. In the end the rankings notice was taken down without anybody noticing
I tried so hard but n.o.body even praised . n.o.body noticed. That was so sad
Which is why I decided to plan a little farce for myself.
I made sure to ti it so that my results were casually lying around the living room when Oniisama ca ho. Of course, just having it lying around on its own was a little too obvious, so I made sure to have exercise printouts and stationery and textbooks and stuff as well. I was totally just looking through my bag for sothing when my results just happened to fall out.
Oh? Thats weird. Oniisama wasnt ho yet?
In the end I was forced to put the stationery back into my bag and wait. I took it out again.
He wasnt coming.
I put it back in. Then took it all out.
After repeating this again and again, Oniisama finally appeared.
Welco ho, Oniisama!
Im back. Whats all this on the table, Reika?
I was simply looking for sothing
I rustled my hand in my more-or-less empty bag. Oniisama! Look! Your little sisters grades are right there!
To stall for ti, I took out the contents of my pencilcase one by one.
Oniisama! Right there! Right in front of you!
Hm? Oh, are these your grades?
Oniisama finally noticed and picked it up.
Goodness~ Oniisama! Stop! How embarra.s.sing~
Oh my~ With my bag in my hands, I was completely unable to stop Oniisama from picking it up~
Wow! You made it to 29th place this ti. You really did your best, Reika!
Ehh~ You exaggerate~
29th place in high school ans your na was put up, right? Youre amazing. After trying so hard, I think you deserve a present, dont you?
Ehh~ 29th place is nothing so deserving~
I dont think thats true. Its a reward for all your effort.
With that, Oniisama smiled and stroked my head.
Oniisamaaa~!!
I really did my best, you know? But n.o.body noticed.
Hahh, it finally, finally paid off.
Ichinokura-san brought out to eat in celebration of the end of exams. This ti Mao-chan was absent.
We were going to be eating at an Italian place he recomnded. Not one of the fancy expensive places, but like a small trattoria.
The mont we stepped inside, I could already sll the scent of roasted garlic.
I went with a bolognaise pasta.
On the other hand, Ichinokura-san decided on a pescatore.
We were also ordering a pizza margherita.
Youll have the bruschetta, obviously.
Well, yes.
Maybe we should get so salad too. What kind of salad do you like, Reika-san?
Caprese salad would be nice.
Then well get that. Ah, but wont that be a bit too much tomato? Ill change my pasta order then. What should I get
I used to worry about whether or not to keep faking my eating habits, but ever since that night with the kamashi I stopped with all pretences.
Ichinokura-san said that it was more fun to dine out with people who could eat a lot anyhow.
The food ca one after another, so much that it felt like I was at an eating compet.i.tion. Bring it all out!
Yummmyyy! The bolognaise was delicious. And the flat pasta was just the best! And the cheese on the margherita just stretched* out!
Actually, G.o.d, why were Italian tomato dishes all so delicious? Apparently tomatoes were good for burning fat too. Delicious *and good for dieting? It was too good for words!
Even I was full after all of that. But I ordered so tiramisu for dessert.
When Ichinokura-san asked how my exams went, I modestly told him that they were acceptable.
Mao tells that youre quite impressive at school.
She misunderstands. I think she overestimates .
I hope youll help her with her studies too.
Uhuhu, leave it to . I, rank 29th Kisshouin Reika, can do primary school howork with my eyes closed.
When it was ti to leave, Ichinokura-san bought so sweets to take back to Mao-chan since she couldnt co today. Thats why I asked to pay for that instead. After being treated to so many als, I wanted to at least do this. And I ate quite a bit, too
I eventually convinced him. When I went to pay at the register though, I spotted so amaretti so I bought it to bring ho for myself.
Thank you for the sweets. Ill make sure to tell Mao that it was from you.
Thank you for always treating . Todays food was just delicious. The caprese salad was one of the best three I have ever had.
Really? Im glad you enjoyed it so much. That place is really picky about tomatos.
No wonder it was so delicious then. But the cheese was wonderful too.
The cheese? Then how about I take you to a risotto place next ti? Theres this blue cheese risotto you just have to try.
Risotto!? I love risotto.
Then that settles it.
When I returning ho from great dinner with Ichinokura-san, I saw Oniisama reading a travel magazine. Was he planning on going sowhere?
I entered my room and then had just one of the amaretti. Yummy
Tsuruhana-sans group tried to trip Wakaba-chan in the hallway, but Wakaba-chan vaulted over each one like an athlete doing hurdles.
And in her gym cla.s.s, only Wakaba-chan was forced to play dodgeball during a basketball ga
I was starting to worry about her a little, but she still seed totally unaffected, so I hoped she could get through this.
As bad as I felt about it, if the President of the Pivoine really had it out for her, there wasnt much I could do.
Tsk. I was shifting responsibilities now, but what the heck was Kaburagi doing.
What happened to his destiny?
