Lip-Synching and Attention.
It was Tuesday after the holidays.
In the classroom in the morning, I saw Shizuki, who seemed to have completely recovered.
I was a little concerned about her, but she seemed to be okay now.
As I took my seat and organized my belongings, my eyes met Shizuki’s from a little distance away.
“….”
Shizuki smiled briefly and I saw her lips moving, seemingly to say something to me.
“Go, Mo, Ri, Ng”…?
Ahh, “Good Morning.” I guess?
For now, I just nodded once and returned the greeting.
If you don’t want people to be aware of you, you don’t have to bother saying hello.
After that, Shizuki was immediately surrounded by the usual flamboyant girls.
The classroom was filled with the usual hustle and bustle.
Apparently, Shizuki doesn’t intend to talk to me at school.
Well, it’s probably safe to say that the people at school don’t think that I have any contact with Shizuki at all.
For Shizuki, who wants to keep her sober mode at home a secret, it’s better to keep her connection with me a secret.
But even so, the fact that she sneaks in a greeting with me is indeed very polite of Shizuki.
“Look, Miori~n! I got my ears pierced!”
“Ehh!? Oh, really?! ….Amazing! So cuteー!”
“Wow, you’re a badass.”
“I’m not~! It’s normal to wear earrings nowadays! right, Miori~n~!”
“I-I know right…!”
Today, as always, the Flamboyant Girls were in full swing.
But somehow, I felt that Shizuki’s smile was much stiffer than usual.
By the way, piercings are not prohibited at our high school.
Although there are very few students who have pierced ears.
The bell rang for the start of the school day, and everyone hurriedly took their seats.
This kind of environment and the fact that piercings are allowed is just what I’d expect from a progressive school.

During the lunch break, I decided to read the manga I borrowed from Shizuki in the classroom while biting into the bread I bought at the store.
I was halfway through ‘Sixteen Love’.
I was now reading volume 15, which I could finish in no time.
By the way, this manga was really interesting.
I couldn’t take my eyes off the tennis story, but also the love affairs of the sub characters.
And above all, the FL and ML were really good.
There are many things they say and do that make sense to me, and above all, they are both drawn in a way that makes me want to root for them.
And for a dullard like me, this kind of dazzling adolescence touches my heart.
“Ehh, Come here, look at this Mariko!”
“What?”
I’ve read my fair share of shonen mangas too, but shoujo manga is really interesting too.
I guess it’s not good to be ignorant of anything.
Yesterday, I stayed at home and read for quite a while.
After all, I was so curious about the rest of the story that I ended up reading it at school as well.
“Huh? Hasumi? Was that your name? Do you read shoujo manga?”
“Ehh? …Uwaaa, really.”
Moreover, according to my research, it seems that this work is not yet complete.
The current volume is only 32, and there seems to be a new edition every three months or so.
In other words, even if you read it all the way through, it’s still not finished.
I felt happy, sad, and somewhat complicated.
“This combination is too mysterious.”
“Yeah. He’s always so quiet and alone. I’m surprised.”
…..Apparently, I’ve been spotted by the fancy girls.
Well, what does it matter?
Speaking at a volume that I could hear was as brazen as it gets, but I didn’t mind as long as they didn’t get in my way.
Anyway, let’s continue, let’s continue.
“Hasumi is smart, right?”
“Well, he seems to be studying all the time.”
I don’t have much to do except study.
But I didn’t know you knew what I usually do.
They’re looking around a lot more than what they think, these fancy girls.
“He’ s reading it very seriously, boyyy.”
I wonder if he’ s actually that kind of a person. Miori, have you ever talked to him”
“What? M-Me? No, I haven’t! No No!”
Shizuki’s reply was so unnatural…
I don’t know why she’s in a rush.
I glanced to the side and saw that Shizuki was, for some reason, staring at me and blushing.
Her eyes were slightly teary and her mouth was in an embarrassed agape.
I think they are going to say something to me again.
Thinking that, I flipped through the pages of the manga.
