Insensitive Bocchi-kun ~Reluctantly Heading to School Today~ [Dropped] - Chapter 107: Kabedon

Chapter 107: Kabedon

Today at school was truly exhausting.

From the morning, Yamamoto from the next seat bombarded me with questions about yesterday’s events, and then Shibuya-san made a noisy entrance into the classroom again. Also, Alice praised me a lot, although… there was something about her praise…

Well, anyway, I was tired.

All because of that old man, the president…

“Stronger… more forcefully.”

“Like this?”

“Yes. And bring your face closer…”

“…”

So what’s this situation…?

The so-called kabedon…

What on earth am I doing? Seriously, what?

“Come on, get closer.”

“Even closer?”

“Yes. Just like that, don’t take your eyes off.”

“…”

Seriously, what am I doing?

“Hey! Yorimoto-kun, are you capturing this properly? It’s for reviewing later, so make sure you get it right!”

“Y-yeah.”

What is this all about?

“And you, Mamiya-kun. Why are you hesitating? Are you underestimating the art of kabedon, huh?”

“…”

What is this…

That’s right. I’m currently performing a kabedon on my classmate, Tanaka-kun. On Tanaka-kun…

In an empty classroom after school…

“Okay, Yorimoto-kun, show that scene to Mamiya-kun!”

For some reason, my classmate with the red hair, Yorimoto, was also dragged into this…

“Look here, you need to get your face closer. And your ‘don’ is too weak. The ‘don!’ You’ve got to do it with more force. Sigh…”

And why do I have to be subjected to such an obvious sigh? Why…

“Hey, Tanaka. What on earth have we been doing all this time…?”

“Hm? Yorimoto-kun, it’s none of your business for now. But eventually, I’ll tell you, and when that time comes, you’ll be so shocked your heart might just leap out of your mouth.”

“…”

Hey, don’t say things like that on your own. And don’t really drag him into this.

He’s clearly distressed. Yorimoto.

And why are you so obedient to Tanaka-kun’s words?

It’s not like you…

And for the love of God, let me go already…

“Come, we’re moving on to the next scene. Next! You can’t zone out, we don’t have time. Time!”

Today, for some reason, Tanaka-kun is incredibly enthusiastic.

As you can see, it’s not for the best of reasons…

It’s like he’s trying to train me, having seen those pictures of me that circulated on social media yesterday…

I appreciate the sentiment, but really, the sentiment alone would suffice…

And, as I’ve told Yamamoto and the others, I never said I’d be part of it.

Normally, I wouldn’t participate.

I wouldn’t, but just like Miki said, the way things are going…

It might actually be bad.

Or rather, it’s already…

But seriously, what is this situation?

“That’s better! Now, the line! Go!”

“Y-you’ve got a cute face.”

“Sigh… Cut. Mamiya-kun, are you joking around? That didn’t give me any feels at all. Put some emotion into it! If you’re not up for it, shall we just call it a day?”

“…”

I mean, how can I put emotion into it when Tanaka-kun is the one in front of me…

And really, I do want to go home. How many more times must I ‘kabedon’ you, Tanaka…

What on earth am I being made to do…

“Hey! Yorimoto-kun, now film us from that side!”

And I’m really sorry… Yorimoto.

Truly sorry…
