Today was the first day of school, and many clubs had started preparing for recruitnt, but among them, the Art Club was not included.
After lunch, everyone ca to the Art Club's activity room. The President had already been there. He had brought his own bento for lunch and had already finished eating.
Upon entering, Kaede asked, "President, are you really not preparing for recruitnt?"
Waving his hand, the President said lazily, "I've already taken care of it. Just like last year, I simply made a recruitnt notice and put it on the bulletin board during the morning break. As for whether anyone will co, that's up to luck."
"Then probably very few people will co."
Sitting down, Kaede said with emotion, "But that's fine too. Given the size of our club room, we can probably only add three more people at most, but even then it would be a bit crowded. We'll see how it goes."
Looking at a sculpture of a male head placed in the activity room, Aisaka Taiga poked it and said, "If there are more people, it'll probably be very lively, and you won't be able to sleep well, President, right? If you really want to add more people, you'd have to get a bigger activity room first, but that doesn't seem to align with your ideas."
The President, leaning on the sofa, nodded and said, "Exactly, Taiga-chan really understands. Recruiting people is just about luck. Last year, the Art Club only had left, but didn't Asakura and the others join later? Everyone being this relaxed and continuing to draw, it's great. Even when we participated in events later, we still won awards. So, whether a club has many mbers isn't important, as long as the club's activities produce results, that's what matters."
Everyone agreed with him. Moreover, within their club, although Kaede and Eriri didn't draw much, they both had skill, especially Eriri's skill, which no one would deny. Then Uchimaki Subaru and Usami were also constantly improving. There was no need to worry about whether this club would achieve results.
Standing by the window, Usami looked outside at the various clubs holding recruitnt activities in the open space in front of the school building, and couldn't help but say, "It's so lively! Kitamura-kun, aren't your baseball team going over?"
"Most sports clubs haven't gone."
Kitamura Yusaku smiled and said, "We've put up our notice. Those who want to join a club can co to the sports field after school to try it out. That makes it easier to choose which club to join. Besides, it's the middle of the day, we've just eaten, so it's not good to demonstrate to the new students, is it?"
"Oh! That seems to be true."
Usami realized, she had almost forgotten about that.
The first day of school was indeed very lively.
Although she felt a little envious, Usami, like everyone else, actually didn't want too many people in the Art Club, especially not knowing what kind of people would join.
However, despite having such thoughts, when it was ti for club activities in the afternoon, soone actually ca to the Art Club.
Looking at the girl who entered after knocking, with long, light blonde hair and a small tuft of hair tied up to reveal her forehead, everyone's eyes shifted to Eriri.
After all, Eriri also had blonde hair.
"Uh... why are you all looking at ? Isn't it just that we both have blonde hair?"
The golden-haired, blue-eyed girl in front of them was clearly not mixed-race; she was a pure foreigner.
Looking at the cute girl, Eriri was quite curious about her, so she asked, "Um, could you introduce yourself first?"
"Okay!" The girl energetically raised her right hand and said, "My na is Colette, a student from Class 1-C. Please take care of !"
Everyone else also introduced themselves.
After getting to know everyone, Colette looked at Kaede and Eriri and said, "Oh! Asakura-senpai and Sawamura-senpai, you must be the most affectionate couple at Toyosaki, as everyone says, right? I heard people around say you're engaged, and sure enough, you both have rings!"
"Well, it seems pretty much everyone knows," Kaede shrugged and said with a smile, "We can talk about us later. Colette, you're here to sign up for the Art Club, right?"
"Yes! I want to join the Art Club!"
Hearing Colette's firm answer, Kaede looked at the president: "President, it's your job now, new mber interviews and assessnts."
"Uh huh, no problem, leave it to !"
The president stood up from the sofa, and then several boys moved tables together and arranged them, placing a chair in front to simulate a simple interview setting.
After everyone was seated, the president looked at Colette and asked, "Colette-chan, could you please tell us why you want to join the Art Club?"
Colette answered without hesitation, "Because the Art Club seems very interesting! And I can draw too!"
"Hmm~~~~~~" The president closed his eyes, crossed his arms, and pondered.
After a few seconds of thought, he opened his eyes and took out a form from the drawer: "Congratulations, you passed! Fill out this club application form, and you'll be a new mber of the Art Club!"
"Thank you!!!"
Everyone looked at the president in surprise, Usami asked, "President, you agreed so easily?"
"Oh, isn't this child quite good? I think there's no problem letting her join. At worst, we can observe her for a while, and if there are any issues, we can deal with them directly then."
The president said softly, watching Colette take a pen and paper, her face filled with joy as she began to fill out the form.
Eriri and Usami exchanged glances, then looked at Colette. They quite liked this cute junior, so why not let her join and see?
Kaede and Uchimaki Subaru had no major issues, holding the sa view as the president: a trial period.
After filling out the application form, Colette officially beca a new mber of the Art Club.
Everyone put the tables and chairs back in their original places, then began their daily activities.
Eriri, being the best artist in the Art Club, volunteered to ntor the junior, having Colette sit next to her.
Setting up an easel and placing a head sculpture on the table in front, Eriri looked at Colette and asked, "Colette-chan, have you ever studied drawing before?"
"Yes, a little!"
"Then let's give it a try. I'll see your skill level, and then we can help you improve little by little. Later, when the cherry blossoms bloom, we'll go out together for cherry blossom viewing and sketching. We did that last year."
Colette's eyes imdiately widened when she heard this, clearly very interested: "Oh! That sounds fun, I want to go!"
Then she picked up her brush and began to draw seriously.
