Piercing And Rescue.
“Uwaaaa! It’s over! Yuuga-chi!”
It was lunchtime the day before the last final exam of the second semester was to begin…
“You are too loud…”
Even though the class was getting used to it, it was simply noisy.
Can’t she at least be quiet at lunch time?
“Because this is bad! It’s over!”
“…What is?”
For some reason, Minai had not even eaten her lunch and had her Japanese history textbook spread out on her desk.
How could this girl prioritize studying over eating?
What in the world is going on?
“The portion of the test! I got it wrong!”
“Oh.”
That’s not good.
“Don’t Oh me! I’m in despairrrr! I studied so hard this time!”
“You’re overreacting. Even if it’s a mistake, it’s manageable if it’s just a little off.”
“It’s more than a little bit! I remembered the portion of the previous test!”
“What the hell?”
It makes no sense.
I mean, she should have noticed it while studying…
“I didn’t study at all last time and didn’t listen to class, so I didn’t notice. LOL”
“Don’t be so proud.”
Well, surely that makes sense…?
Still, the inability to do everything right is how she does everything, what can I say…?
“Hey, guys. Oh, something’s wrong? You look like you are in a rough spot, Minai-chan.”
“Senba-kuuuuunnn!!!”
In an usual easygoing tone, Haruomi arrived with a loaf of bread from the canteen.
With accustomed movements, he sat down in the vacant seat and made a circle with Minami, the three of us.
Recently, this gathering of the members has become a familiar sight.
It’s an unbalanced combination, perhaps incomprehensible to the casual observer.
“You are a screw-up who never disappoints, Minai-chan.”
“You say that like it’s a personal matter!!”
“No, it’s perfectly personal. Sorry.”
“C’mon!”
As they exchanged these words, Haruomi also opened his English vocabulary book and began to look at it.
I think it is, well, admirable that both of them are studying hard, for what it’s worth.
Perhaps it was the influence of Shizuki, who was taking it more seriously than anyone else.
“Yuuga, what’s your subject on the first day of the exam?”
“Modern literature, English grammar, biology.”
“Uwaa seriously….”
“You’re rather good at it, aren’t you? If anything, Minami looks worse.”
“Yes! It’s bad! Especially English!”
“The ones I’m good at, I want them to end fast. It’ll give me more time to work on my weak subjects.”
“Well, that’s true.”
“Though I’m too busy redoing Japanese history for that!”
Turning her mysterious victory sign toward us, Minai laughed dryly.
“Miorin miorin!”
Suddenly, one of the flashy gal raised her voice loudly, as if to take over the conversation that had just taken a break.
I believe that’s Yuka.
With an excited look on her face, she waved her hand at the classroom door.
I looked and saw that Shizuki, who had apparently gone somewhere, had just returned.
I was somewhat curious, and my attention naturally turned toward the fancy gals.
“Yuka-chan, what’s up?”
“Let’s all get pierced during winter break!””
“…Eh.”
Even from here, I could see that Shizuki’s face instantly tensed up.
“I’ve only pierced one of mine, and everyone said they wanted to pierce theirs, too, is that so?”
“Oh, uh… well, yeah….”
“Well, it’s a good opportunity. I’m going to pierce them someday anyway.”
“M-Miki, are you going to pierce them too…?”
“Well, my sister pierced it first.””
“W-wow… I see.”
“A senior can come and help us with piercing too!”
The flashy-gals were excited.
Except for Shizuki, of course.
I glanced over and my eyes met Haruomi, who had a subtle expression on his face.
Minai also looked worried.
Perhaps all three of them were thinking the same thing.
“When are we going to do it?”
“I’m ready whenever you are. I heard that my senpai is free. And I’m too.”
“I’m free, too.”
“M-Miki, are you free for Christmas, too?”
“Damn they are loud…”
“What about you, Miori?”
“What? Um… I’m….”
Shizuki’s eyes were clearly swimming.
She looked paler than ever before.
Haruomi and Minai looked at me as if urging me to do something.
“Both of you…”
“Huh?”
“What’s up?”
“Let me …get involved for a minute.”
After making sure they both nodded, I stood up.
As I walked toward the flashy gals, Haruomi and Minai followed.
It was Minami who called out to them first.
“Shizuki! Let’s make plans for winter break!”
“What? …Errr… Minai? what do you mean….?”
“Look! You said it before! Let’s have fun and deepen our friendship over winter break! You know…”
“Yes, yes. Yuuga, who always works part-time, said he’d join us.”
“I don’t want it to be in my home, not this time:
The flashy gals looked at our sudden appearance as if they were looking at something strange.
Well, it was only natural that they would.
It’s just not natural for me, Haruomi, and Shizuki to make plans with each other, let alone Minami.
But here, we had no choice but to use brute force.
Even if I rescued Shizuki by a stopgap measure, the result would be the same if she continued the conversation later.
“…Is that so? Miorin.”
“Ahhh… umm, yeah! A-Actually, that’s right..! S-Sorry!”
“What an unexpected group. I don’t mind though.
The flashy gals looked quizzical, but at least they seemed to be convinced.
I’m sure we didn’t mean to offend these gals either.
I feel sorry for them, but I can only hope they’ll let it slide.
Minai pulled Shizuki’s hand and we returned to our seats.
The four of us huddled together and pretended to be discussing the situation.
Shizuki sighed deeply and long with a mixture of relief and depression on her face.
Seeing her like that made me feel a little weak inside, too.
We may have taken the liberty of doing so, but please forgive us, Shizuki.
