Hi guys! Looking for experienced cleaners or type-setters to help with the .
Apparently Fellow Stalking Horse was quite popular.
His looks were pretty good and he demonstrated ability in his role as Student Council President.
He treated everyone the sa, even if they were a Pivoine, and he was both trustworthy and reliable.
As a result he was popular with both s.e.xes.
I suppose it just ca down to the authors taste, but in the manga he and the Emperor were kind of similar.
Both of them were charismatic and had presence, and masculine faces.
In the colour ill.u.s.trations their hair colours had made them look like a black panther and silver wolf.
In any other romance novel youd expect them to be complete opposites though.
That fact that they werent had pretty much convinced back in the day that the author was simply into this type of overbearing guy.
I suppose there was only one huge difference between them.
While the Emperor was cold and aloof, the Student Council President was approachable as youd expect from his position.
He was sincere with everyone he spoke to.
The result was a boatload of confessions.
Apparently the StuCo President was confessed to again.
Who was it this ti?
That first year, I hear. The one thats supposedly sowhat cute. You know the one.
We had barely begun the new term and already sobody had confessed to him?
For a man that was supposed to be the vice-chief, why was he so different to the chief?
Anyway, whether you were cute or not, Fellow Stalking Horse treated you equally and was never cruel in his rejection.
It was admirable.
After all, there were plenty of guys who changed their att.i.tude based on who was confessing.
You dont have to go out with . I just wanted you to know how I felt.
Girls who told him this were never-ending.
Huh.
I supposed the Emperor was like that too.
After all, whether you were cute or not, the Emperor treated you equally. If you werent Yurie-sama it was a frosty Not interested.
Thats why almost n.o.body confessed to him, despite his popularity.
Speaking of which, I wonder how Maihama-san was doing~
Anyway, going back to Stalking Horse, rumour had it that he had his first shrine visit of the New Year with Wakaba-chan.
It was a famous shrine, so apparently plenty of people spotted them.
When girls questioned him about it, he claid that he had gone with the entire Student Council, not just with her. Still, it hadnt changed the fact that in the bustle of the shrine the pair had been together the entire ti, and looked awfully close.
Making matters worse, Emperor Kaburagi was still greeting Wakaba-chan just like last year, and would strike up a chat whenever he went to Enjous cla.s.s.
Whether the StuCo Pres or the Emperor, Wakaba-chans intimacy with the two was already seeing her glared at with jealous eyes.
I was on my way back from club activities.
There was a textbook that I needed for studies tonight, so I was heading by my locker to pick it up.
I was walking down the empty hallway when I spotted one Wakaba-chan heading into the bathroom.
Since there was n.o.body else around, I figured I may as well wish her a belated Happy New Year.
Thats why I followed her in, only to find her in just her blouse, washing her jacket in the clean washbasin.
Takamichi-san? I called out quietly.
Wakaba-chan turned around with a start.
Oh, it was you, Kisshouin-san. Whats up?
Whats up, you ask? I wanted to ask that.
I glanced at the dirtied white jacket in her hands.
Now that I was looking carefully, I realised her skirt was in the sa condition.
Is that paint water?
Eh? Yeah, sobody b.u.mped with it earlier.
Whom?
I didnt really see their face. They said sorry, and then disappeared.
Disappeared? They dirtied your clothes and then ran!?
Ahh~ Yeah
That was absolutely intentional. Even their mbership in the Art Club was dubious.
But I cant get the stains out of white clothing. I might have to send it for dry cleaning
This is horrible. You should find the culprit and demand the dry cleaning funds! And from the looks of these stains, who knows if even that would do the job!
Ive got a coupon for dry cleaning, so dont worry about that. I got a bonus from last years term-end exams too. Ill just have to rely on the dry cleaners to do their best Its going to be rough without a jacket tomorrow thoughhh.
Eh!? Is this your only one!?
Mmn.
Overcoat or not, commuting by train without a jacket in this weather was unreasonable.
And to begin with, although I wasnt sure if it was actually against regulations, not wearing the jacket could make her stand out as much as the gum boots did for all I knew.
Coming here without a jacket may be a problem. Particularly when it cos to the forr president of the Pivoine.
Ah, thought so.
Wakaba-chan frowned.
And I dont even know if the stains will even co out. I guess I have no choice but to buy one then. Man, this is going to be tough on expenses
I was hesitant, but I couldnt help but speak after seeing how troubled she looked.
Umm, I have a spare set so, what if I gave it to you?
Ehh!? Even Id feel bad about that!
I had a number of spare uniforms in case so got dirty.
Giving her one wasnt an issue at all.
Stains just wouldnt do on white clothing after all.
These uniforms are expensive. I cant take sothing like that from you! This is completely different to slippers, you know!
But at this rate you will have to pay yourself, no?
Hmmmm
The school uniforms were expensive.
I wasnt sure exactly how expensive but I wouldnt be surprised if a set cost more than 100,000.
Ah!
Eh?
Oh! I did have one I didnt need! One that Id probably never wear again!
I have one spoilt one that I wear no longer. It would put at ease if you could find a use for it.
Ummm Is this spoilt one cleaner than what Im wearing?
Yes. I had it sent to the dry cleaners so it should be clean. However originally it had bird faeces on it
Eh!? Again!?
Indeed, I nodded gravely.
It happened on a chilly afternoon.
I was going on an after-lunch walk with my friends.
I had been looking to the side at the ti when from the skies above a bird dropped its p.o.o.p onto my head!
Even though it missed my head, it still handed on my skirt.
Since it was soft and still steaming fresh it bounced off my skirt and ended up dirtying my jacket too.
A bird p.o.o.ped on Reika-sama again!
Hold on, Reika-sama! Its not too bad! It only hit your uniform today!
Everyone brought to the school infirmary as my mind struggled to reboot from shock and it sohow managed to get off with detergent.
After that I imdiately had sobody bring a new change of clothes from ho, and then sent the bird-p.o.o.p set to the cleaners.
Still, I didnt feel too good about it and never ended up wearing it again.
Why was it just that had to get p.o.o.ped on. Grrrr, it was outrageous!
I suppose it was a matter of outlook though.
There were islands made of bird p.o.o.p in the world that you could get phosphate from and make a fortune, so maybe the bird p.o.o.ping on would one day lead to the sa.
Yeah. No. Its impossible after all.
Anyway, although she was hesitant I managed to convince Wakaba-chan and I brought her ho with in my family car.
What a huge house~
Wakaba-chan was just staring in shock with her mouth gaping.
Thank goodness, my parents werent ho yet.
We headed to my room.
I took out the p.o.o.p uniform and handed it to her.
How is it?
Wah! It isnt dirtied at all! Can I really take such a new uniform off you?
I do not intend on wearing it again, and have plenty of spares besides. Please stop hesitating and take it.
Really? Thank you! Ah, but will the size fit? Were about the sa height, but Im pretty thick, you know? Im not skinny like you are.
Nonsense~ We look the sa~ Ohohoho.
I was in a pretty good mood.
Wakaba-chan tried it on.
Hmmm?
Apparently the waist for my uniform was loose on her
Shall I lend you a sewing set?
Umm, I can do it at ho!
Out of consideration, Wakaba-chan just smiled past the awkwardness.
Not that Im making excuses, but that uniform was back from when I was eating out with Ichinokura-san, okay!
Im way skinnier now!
Thanks for this, really. I want to pay you back so co over and play soti, okay? My family wants to et you too!
Yes, I look forward to it.
I saw Wakaba-chan off at the nearest station.
After pa.s.sing through the ticket gates, she turned and waved at with energy before leaving.
I couldnt help but wonder who had done this.
A fan of the Emperor, or a fan of Fellow Stalking Horse
