Insensitive Bocchi-kun ~Reluctantly Heading to School Today~ [Dropped] - Chapter 44: The Final Act

Chapter 44: The Final Act

Ah, a lot of things have happened.

But finally, it’s over…

It was long… Truly, these past three days felt like the longest in my life.

I made it through the hellish school trip.

That’s right. Right now, I’m on the plane back home.

But just remembering it now, so many things happened.

From the first day at the zoo, making accessories, visiting the observatory, going to the buffet, and even at the hotel…

And then yesterday, there was the ikura and ramen, but most of all, the prank that probably got scrapped. I never expected to meet a celebrity…

And today, the soft serve ice cream at the ranch in the morning and the Jingisukan for lunch…

Looking back now, it was somewhat enjoyable… Well, there were quite a few unpleasant things too.

Well… it ended without any major issues, so let’s just call it a draw.

While I was pretending to sleep on the way back, I heard his voice from the next seat.

“Mamiya-kun… You’re awake, aren’t you?”

Tanaka-kun…

“It’s fine if you stay like that, but… yesterday, your picture was on Saori-san’s Twitter and Instagram, right? Seriously, who are you? Before we boarded the plane, I checked it out again, and it was incredible.”

I see, so Tanaka-kun figured out it was me after all.

By the way, come to think of it, we did meet at the zoo when I was in that disguise.

We also stayed at the same hotel for two days.

What could be so incredible?

I don’t use Twitter or anything, so I wouldn’t know, but there would probably be some harsh comments from her fans or something.

Sigh…

But, I guess those who understand will understand, right?

Because in the end, it’s me.

Why is it that others don’t notice it the other way around…?

Well… it’s better not to be noticed, though. It’s strange.

“I’m a huge fan of hers, you know. Hey, what does the top idol smell like? Hey?”

What is this guy even saying…?

As I thought, sometimes he shows his crazy side.

Scary…

“Hey, Mamiya-kun? Are you really asleep? Well… if that’s the case, nothing I can do.”

With that, Tanaka-kun quiets down next to me.

Phew, thank goodness.

If I had responded, who knows what kind of strange questions he would have asked. It would have been unbearable.

But I’m grateful to Tanaka-kun too.

Thanks to him, the school trip became much easier mentally.

Thank you…

Sigh… But man, I’m really exhausted.

_____ As I thought about such things, I ended up falling asleep for real, and before I knew it, we were moments away from landing.

We’ve truly returned…

I’m so moved, tears are welling up…

Finally, I can go home.

I’m so happy, I can’t contain it.

Ah… it was really tough, and I had to rely on my group members, but in the end… well, maybe it wasn’t that bad.

And, tomorrow is a day off… The best.

Sigh… But man, I’m so tired.

Sigh…
