In order to maintain Mao-chans image of , I was going to work hard at cram school once again.
Next ti I was aiming for rank 25. For now I was just taking little steps. But one day
With renewed determination in my heart I opened my exercise book. It was around that ti that Uwaka-kun and his friends arrived.
Hey Kisshouin-san, he said, I just heard but apparently the guy over by the door, second row from the front, is actually from Suiran too. Do you know him?
Eh?
This was the first Id heard of any Suiran student going to my cram school. I squinted to get a better look at him but I had no idea who he was.
I cannot say that I do I suspect that we have simply never had a cla.s.s together.
Really? But he seems to know you, Kisshouin-san.
Truly?
I hear he only started coming to this cram school this year. If youre from the sa school, maybe you could talk to him?
I suppose I could.
Since he was from Suiran I decided I should at least greet him.It wasnt possible now that our teacher had arrived but I could do so during the break.
When that break ca around, I walked over to him but when he saw his expression turned obviously frightened. Eh? How co?
I have been told that you attend Suiran. Might this be true?
Ah! Yes
Apparently this diligent and sowhat plain-looking boy was nad Tagaki-kun, and had entered the high school as an External.
My na is Kisshouin Reika. May we get along.
Yes, I know who you are of course he said oddly fearfully.
Co on, is there really a need to be like that?
What cla.s.s are you in, Tagaki-kun? Who do you attend Suiran with?
Ummm Im in Enjou-sans cla.s.s
Enjou-sama?
Didnt that an he was in the sa cla.s.s as Wakaba-chan?
Then that would place you with Takamichi-san. Are you close with her?
Eh!? No, not particularly
I see. What is she like in cla.s.s? Does she have friends?
Ah I think she does
So she made friends too. Thank goodness. I was worried she would be completely isolated. It made sense though, since it wasnt like the whole school hated her. Only so people hated her. So rather troubleso people, though.Before I returned to my seat, I told him to talk to if he had any questions since he was attending here alone.
He was from Suiran, right?
Yes. But because our cla.s.ses are different he is honestly little more than a stranger. He seems to know of , however.
Whats this? Kisshouin-san, are you famous at your school?
Kisshouin-san stands out after all~
Actually, I explained, I have been attending Suiran since primary school, which is why I am better-known than those who joined later.
By so chance my eyes pa.s.sed over Tagaki-kuns back. Maybe he noticed sohow because he turned around and our eyes t before he quickly turned away. Hmmm~ I wonder how he saw
Oh? Kisshouin-san, could he be scared of you?
Leave it alone, please.
Later at ho I got an email from Bea-tan.
Do your best! Im your friend, Reika-tan! Your confidante, Beatrice.
Thank you, Bea-tan
On a clear, beautiful morning, I b.u.mped into Enjou at the entrance to the school building.
Morning, Kisshouin-san.
Good morning, Enjou-sama.
And then for so reason we ended up heading to cla.s.s together. We pa.s.sed by a number of girls who stopped to stare at him in a daze.I was so jealous I wasnt even doing anything but pretty much every boy averted his eyes from in fear
Whats wrong, Kisshouin-san?
Nothing.
I see, he smiled brightly.
So of the girls watching on began squealing.
Are you not with Kaburagi-sama on this morning?
Well its not like we go to school together. Wait, dont tell you think that each morning we happily ride the sa car here? Wouldnt that be pretty creepy for two high school boys? We go to school at the sa ti, so I guess we b.u.mp into each other a lot.
My, is that how it was?
But Ive seen you two get out of the sa car a few tis, yanno.
Maybe he noticed sothing from my expression because he added,
Speaking of which, there actually was a period when I went to pick him up. I couldnt really take my eyes off him at the ti. I still have you thank you for your help back then.
Enjou flashed another smile.
Back then, huh.
It was thanks to you risking life and limb that we sohow got Masaya to cheer up. Thanks again.
You are welco
The way he worded that sounded particularly annoyed . So he was the one who made out to be a reject woman!
And it looks like my brother has been in your care too. The other day he brought ho this toy that he said you taught him.
Oh, the snow rabbit!
Yukino-kun. He was a pure-white little angel-chan, unlike his wicked black-hearted older brother. I prayed that he wouldnt be led astray by Enjous evil influence.
So its called needle felting. I had no idea you had that kind of hobby. My brother was quite happy about it.
I see. Then it makes happy that he enjoyed it.
I thought back on his innocent smile and couldnt help but smile myself.
It seems that the snow rabbit had special importance to him. He told about how you and Enjou-sama built snown for him. You really spoil him, Enjou-sama.
Well, weve got quite an age difference after all. And he hasnt got the best const.i.tution either. Doesnt your own brother spoil you quite a bit too? Why according to the rumours, youre practically a brocon, Kisshouin-san. Although lately its been leaning towards fathercon instead.
Tanuki!
It is certainly true that my brother and I have always been close, but I have not the faintest idea how the accusations of being a fathercon ca about.
Ohh? I see.
Enjou gave an amused smile.
Still under the gaze of other girls, we walked together as far as the front of his cla.s.sroom, before he stopped at the door-fra.
Oh, by the way, he muttered, Is it because you love your much older brother so much that your taste is also for older n?
Eh?
Enjou grinned at and then headed inside.Scary. Who was he talking about just now?
Feeling gloomy despite the nice weather, I headed for my own cla.s.sroom when a small racket caught my attention. It was an excited-looking Nonose-san and Miharu-chan.
I told you that the chamberlain wasnt suited for the princess! A princess needs a prince!
But I was rooting for the chamberlain.
Why not console him?
Whatever it was, they seed to be having fun chatting about it.
Nonose-san and Miharu-chan went and called out to Cla.s.s Rep. He seed delighted that Miharu-chan was coming over to talk to him.
As for , Rune-chan and the others mobbed and asked what Enjou and I were chatting to happily about.
