Calls And Invitations.

It’s Friday night, and I have an unpleasant schedule tomorrow.

I was in my room studying for maths when my phone rang.

My phone rarely rings except when I get a text from that guy.
And when it does, it’s usually a trivial message from Haruomi.

It’s probably the same this time.

Even though I thought so, I checked the contents of the notification.

There were two messages.
So is it Haruomi?

“…Oh?”

‘This is Shizuki. When I was cleaning today, I happened to find a bag in which Hasumi-kun had written his ID before, so I registered as a friend!’

‘Thank you very much.’

“…Ahh.”

Oh, yeah, I remember that.

I completely forgot about it.

I mean, I thought she already threw it away.

Well, I don’t think I’ll be keeping in touch with Shizuki much, but it’s good to know her contact information.
Though, It’s not like there won’t be another emergency like the last time she had a cold.

I registered Shizuki’s account as a friend and gave her a quick reply.

“Hi.”

Now, let’s get back to studying.

They’ll probably ask me a lot of questions at the study session tomorrow anyway, so I need to get as much done as I can today.

*Notification*

“Hmm…”

Another notification.

Maybe it’s Shizuki this time.

I’ll have to look at it later, since I won’t be able to make any progress in my studies if I have to reply each time.

Hmmm, the maximum and minimum values of a quadratic function.
I think I’m going to be asked a particular question here…

*Notification*

…..

*Notification* 

………

*Notification*

….Or put it on silent instead.

I took my phone from beside me and switched it to mute mode.

But what in the world are they sending me?

‘By the way, Hasumi-kun, have you been studying for the final exam?’

‘I haven’t done anything yet, and I’m in a bit of a pinch.’

‘I can’t concentrate when I’m at home alone, so it would be nice if I could study with someone.’

‘…Are you studying now, by any chance?’

…Huh.

They’re all from her…
But …is that so?
Maybe she came up with a good idea.
I went ahead and tapped on Shizuki’s icon.

I pressed the “Call” button to make a call.

It’s faster to talk to someone directly than to communicate with them by text.
If it’s not convenient, she’ll just ignore it or something.

“…..”

‘H-hello.’

There she is.

“I’d like to ask you something.”

‘Eh, what is it..?’

“Shizuki, you don’t have bad grades, do you?”

She’s surrounded by flashy gals, but she never missed a homework or assignment.

It is highly possible that she is not bad at studying because she is serious.
And if that’s the case—

‘What? It’s not very good, but it’s not bad either. But….’

“Okay. Then help me.”

‘What do you mean ….How can I help you?’

“Tomorrow and probably the day after, there will be a study session at my place. Haruomi and Minai will be barging in.”

Because of that, I also had to clean, but let’s leave that story for now.

“It’s just too hard for me to deal with those two on my own. I thought that if Shizuki was there, the burden could be distributed.”

‘…Ehh, Ehhh~~ There’s no such thing like that~~…!　I didn’t know that much either… Ahahaha.’

“If it’s convenient for you, you can come too. And I can introduce you to them all at once.”

It was troublesome to choose the right timing, timing and situation.

‘But …is it okay if I come suddenly….? Th-The thing is! I haven’t talked to them properly yet.…’

“It’ll be fine. It’s my house, and it’s a gathering that depends on me. I won’t let them complain. And even if you haven’t talked to them much, they certainly won’t mind.”

Haruomi, and probably Minai as well, are not the type.

She will be happy, and they will not object.

‘Oh, I see. ….I’ll be bothering you then. Thanks for inviting….’

“Oh. Thank you. Come tomorrow afternoon. I’ll send you the address later.”

‘Yes, Okay!’

“If you get lost, let me know and I’ll pick you up.”

‘I-I won’t get lost!’

“Okay. Well then, bye.”

I hung up the phone and threw it on the bed this time.

Now, study, study.

“…….”

…….

“…Anyway.” 

I sat down in my chair and looked up at the ceiling, feeling a little weird.

Three friends will come to my house?
Or rather, I have three friends.
It’s not that I wanted to have friends.
But I couldn’t say that I wasn’t happy.

And….

“Shizuki is also comiing….”

……

…For the time being, let’s finish the cleaning first.
Curiously, I suddenly thought about that.
