Lonely Me And The Lonely Caring Goddess - Chapter 134 - Start of Second Semester
I Reincarnated As A Trash Prince
Chapter 134 – Start of Second Semester
“Good morning.”
“Good morning, Natsumi.”
Sara-senpai and I were late joining Natsumi-senpai, who was already waiting for us at the usual convenience store.
「……」
Natsume-senpai stared at us meekly.
“Natsumi? Is there something wrong?”
Upon hearing Sara-san’s words, Natsumi-senpai moved her attention from Sara-san to me, pausing and somewhat thinking before proceeding to speak.
“Well, it’s just that Sara was not at the usual meeting place. So I decided to go here to the convenience store. And then… where did you come from?”
“I came from Kazunari-san’s house?”
Upon being asked, Sara-san boldly declared that she had come from my house.
And as expected, Natsumi-senpai was taken aback.
“If you’re going to pick up Kazunari-san, you should have sent me a message.”
“You’re right. It’s just that many things happened yesterday that I forgot to contact Natsumi about. Sorry.”
Well, indeed, Sara-san’s stay happened suddenly.
Plus, my story has been long.
“Haa (*Sigh*)… alright. As always, your top priority is Takanashi-kun. Then, should we go?”
It’s a relief that Natsumi-senpai hadn’t asked about what happened last night.
Speaking of, it has been a while since we went to school together like this.
The only change that happened was that Sara and I became a couple.
“Ah-ah~, summer vacation is over.”
“Yeah. The second semester will probably be busy, especially in the student council.”
The second semester’s event would probably – be the school festival.
Was there anything else?
“Hmm… school festival, ball games and… That’s right! The school trip!”
Yeah. The sophomores have a school trip.
Eh!?
Then that means we won’t be able again for a few days…
“Umm… How many days will the school trip last?”
“Probably a week?”
A week… and another two days… Oh, come on!”
My mind started thinking about useless things.
“Is there any problem?”
It was Natsumi-senpai who reacted to my surprise.
My reaction would be difficult to understand, given that school trips should be fun.
“Oh, I forgot about it. It’s also a week-long activity. Natsumi, I’ll decline the school trip, so please enjoy it for my sake too.”
Sara-san said so while looking at me and wrapping her hand around my arm.
“Huh? Why would you do that?!”
“I don’t want to part with Kazunari-san even for a week.”
“No, no, no. That isn’t good. To decline such an important event, such as a school trip…”
“Sara-san. A school trip is an important event, so please participate.”
Persuading her at times like this is the correct choice.
Knowing Sara-san, she probably means it.
Why am I so pathetic for thinking such things? Stupid self.
“Kazunari-san… you know that I – we won’t be able to see each other for a week?”
“I know how you feel, and I think the same way. But please go on the school trip. If you don’t go because of me, I’ll feel guilty and blame myself.”
“Kazunari-san… you’ll go that far for my sake…”
“Sara-san… you’re the one who always goes to lengths for me…”
I could hear Sara-san’s wavering voice as she stared at me.
I stared back at her and moved a little closer.
“Hey! How long will you take in your little world? The semester is just starting!”
We probably look like a painting on canvas right now.
——————————————
After arriving at the school, I went directly straight to the classroom.
Aah…
After many things that happened, the second semester is finally here.
I’m glad I don’t have any worries about the summer homework.
Sara-san, thank you very much for that.
“Good morning!”
“Good morning, Takanashi-kun!”
“Good morning~.”
Even though they were classmates not in Hayato or Natsumi-senpai’s fan club, they still returned my greeting.
I am grateful that they are looking at me now.
Hmm, speaking of which… Where are those three?
Upon thinking about it, I saw Yamakawa doing his homework.
Yeah. If Sara-san wasn’t there for me, I might be the same as him.
Kawamura and Tanaka were helping him.
“Good morning.”
“Ossu, Takanashi. Long time no see!”
“Morning. Finished with homework?”
He greeted Yamakawa but did not get a reply since Yamakawa was desperately writing.
“Will he make it in time?”
“Impossible. Well, there’s nothing we can do about that.”
“I see. Good luck.”
That’s all I said.
And the chime mercilessly rang, and the morning class began.
——————————————
After the boring opening ceremony, nothing much happened since it was still the first day of the semester.
“Hayato, we have student council today, so how about we plan for tomorrow?”
“Right… Today is the first day of club activities, so I also want to arrive on time. I think tomorrow would be good.”
Hayato came over during recess, and we discussed approaching Yuzuha.
Tomorrow would be the most ideal for both of us. Let’s leave that for tomorrow.
“Understood. Then let’s meet tomorrow after school.”
“Okay. Then see you tomorrow.”
If we make the first move toward Yuzuha, we can crush her even if she makes the first move against Hayato. However, Hayato must be significantly extra careful talking with Yuzuha.
Well, considering Hayato, it’ll be a hard pass in the first place.
——————————————
It’s now noon break.
After eating lunch in the flower garden and watering the plants, we headed towards the student council room.
During the summer vacation, the teachers tended the flower garden, but the teachers did not pull out the weeds.
The meeting in the student council mainly consists of welcoming the new semester and listing events for the semester.
“As with the school festival ending, my term as the student council president is also ending. Thus, we need to have a presidential election.”
Hmm…
Since the president has been at it for three years, will someone take over his position during this semester?
And someone that will become the chairman… Is Sara-san the only option?
“If Sara-san will take my place, then there will be no need for elections.”
“I am not interested in the student council president position. If I have the time to do that, I’d rather take care of Kazunari-san.”
「「「「「……………」」」」」
Ahh! What should I say?
How should I handle this situation?
“… She’s calling his first name.”
“… Something happened during the summer vacation.”
“… Was that the case? Did they become a couple?”
“… It has to be a lie. Satsukawa-san… Satsukawa-san is…”
“… Rather, how is she taking care of Takanashi-kun?”
“Well, there’s still time. So the decision doesn’t have to be now.”
From their reaction, it looked like they hadn’t heard anything from Natsumi-senpai.
This calm reaction from the student council president is kinda rare.
For the time being, the meeting ended with just confirming the events for the second semester.
