*chatter*
「Good morning, Asakura-san.」
「A, Andou-kun! Good morning……」
Eh? To think that Andou-kun would take the initiative to greet me first today…… No way, it's just like a dream! (Asakura)
*chatter*……
*chatter*……
*chatter*……
Asakura-san, she's already using the bookmark we bought yesterday…… Why is she grinning happily while holding onto the bookmark? Does she like it that much? By the way, the cla.s.s is quite noisy today…… Oh, somehow cla.s.s rep is making a beeline for Asakura-san with a grim face. (Andou)
「Asakura-san, can I have a moment? 」
「Ah, good morning cla.s.s rep. Ehehe ~ ~ Listen, listen ~ ~」
「We'll talk after this, just come here for a minute」
「Huh? What's the matter……」
What is it? I wonder, what are they whispering about at the back of the cla.s.sroom? (Andou)
「Asakura-san, it's terrible! 」
「Eh ~ ~ What is ~ ~?」
「That's…… Asakura-san, you were on a date with Andou-kun yesterday, right? 」
「Yeah! That's right! We were! 」
「Ssh—! Your voice is too loud! I'll listen about your date later, okay? To tell you the truth…… There were people who saw you two on your date yesterday so there's been rumors going around about the two of you in the cla.s.sroom. 」
This is bad…… I honestly thought that if Asakura-san and Andou-kun ended up together, she would be grateful to me, and as her trusted friend, my position in school would be safe too…… or so it was supposed to be, but, if this rumor complicates things between them, it would also affect my relations.h.i.+p with Asakura-san…… Rather, there is the possibility that Asakura-san who'll be heartbroken from this would mistake me as a love rival. That's why, I have to get rid of this rumor somehow…… (Cla.s.s rep)
「What! Then, the thing that's being gossiped about in cla.s.s is……」
「That's right…… It's you, Asakura-san.」
「In other words, our relations.h.i.+p is being officially recognized! 」
「Asakura-san, calm down…… Hey, why do I feel like you have your head up in the cloud since the beginning? 」
「Ehehe ~ ~ That's because― today, Andou-kun was――」
「Aah, I know so enough already! 」
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! Andou-kun, why are you pointlessly acting to please Asakura-san at a time like this! As a result, your attack as usual was so swift and heart-throbbing that it left Asakura-san melting as a puddle of goo, you know! (Cla.s.s rep)
「He, hey…… Say, Andou? 」
「Hm? 」
Wait, s.h.i.+tttttttttttttttttttttttttttt! While I was preoccupied with Asakura-san, some boy started talking to Andou-kun! Somehow, I have to keep their relations.h.i.+p a secret! (Cla.s.s rep)
「You…… Is it true that yesterday you were with Asakura-san at the department store in front of the train station? 」
「Eh! 」
Aah, I see…… So that's why I feel like I was being glared at today. Someone spotted us yesterday, huh? But I wonder how should I answer them…… (Andou)
Andou-kun, don't do it! Just dodge the question! (Cla.s.s rep)
「Weーll……」
「I saw it myself! Hey, Andou! Weren't you on the 9th floor of the department store with Asakura-san yesterday? 」
「Eh, you are…?」
Who is this guy……? I'm pretty sure your name is――
Yamadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! You're the one who spread the rumors! What are you doing, you idiot! Because of you, I, the cla.s.s rep, am the one who's going to have to take the heat, you know!? (Cla.s.s rep)
「Yamada-kun! I'm certain it's just a coincidence! 」
「Ah, cla.s.s rep.」
Cla.s.s rep, did you come to save me…… Alright, I wonder if it's okay to just go with that excuse? (Andou)
「Yeah, that's right! It's just a coincidence.」
「Lo, look! Andou-kun said so as well! Right!? Right!? 」
「Whaatー So it's just a coincidenceー」*whisper*
「That's right ~」*whisper*
「It's simply inconceivable for them to be friends.」*whisper*
A, alright! With this the rumor about those two will―― (Cla.s.s rep)
「Eh, but I swear I saw Asakura-san and Andou getting pretty cozy with each other at the bookstore though? 」
Yamadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Even though I almost succeeded in misleading them, you just had to add fuel to the fire instead! (Cla.s.s rep)
「No waay! Are they really that close!? 」*whisper*
「Moreover, it's that Asakura-san and Andou-kun?! 」*whisper*
「It's big news that they're friends right?! 」*whisper*
Aaaaaaaaaahhh! It's hopeless! The rumor has already gone out of my control! Then, the only way left is for the persons involved to deny it themse―― (Cla.s.s rep)
「He, hey! A-a, Asakura-san! Yesterday, the one with Asakura-san…… That's, umm, Andou-kun…… Wasn't it? That is, the rumor that you guys were on a date at the department store……Is it true? 」
Alright! Asakura-san, you just have to brilliantly deceive them here and then―― (Cla.s.s rep)
「That's right! 」
Asakura-saaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! Oh b.o.l.l.o.c.ks! It seems that Asakura-san's head hasn't returned to normal yet, huh! Her head is still so full of Andou-kun, there is no s.p.a.ce left for other things like lying! (Cla.s.s rep)
「Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa! 」
「It's really true! 」
「No wayyy! 」
「It's the end of the woooooooooorld! 」
「Our savioooooooooooooor! 」
「Oi, Andou! You, are you really dating Asakura-san? 」
「That's why, I said I saw them! I'm serious! Asakura-san and this guy really were on a date at the department store! 」
Yamada, shut up! Zip it, you! Andou-kun, please! I can only rely on you! Anything's fine, just divert them! (Cla.s.s rep)
「Ee–tto……」*glance*
Hey, Andou-kun…… Why are you looking at me? (Cla.s.s rep)
「I'll leave the rest to my secretary, the cla.s.s rep, to answer your questions.」
「Hah? 」
A, Andou……kun? (Cla.s.s rep)
「Cla.s.s rep, what's the meaning of this! 」
「Cla.s.s rep, do you know something!? 」
「What is this about being his secretary! Cla.s.s rep! 」
「Please tell us, cla.s.s rep! 」
「Wa, wait! Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! 」
Wh, who the h.e.l.l is your secretaryyyyyyyyyyyyyy! (Cla.s.s rep)
Sorry, cla.s.s rep…… It’s impossible for me, a loner, to stop this uproar…… (Andou)
Even so, I can't stop it eitheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer! (Cla.s.s rep)
「Tell us, cla.s.s rep! 」
「Was it really a date? 」
「What's Andou-kun's relations.h.i.+p with Asakura-san? 」
「Are they really 'friends'? 」
「You're the secretary, so answer us! 」
「Th, that's――」
Aah…… Why do I, the cla.s.s rep, have to suffer something like this…… Alright, I'll definitely kill both Yamada and Andou-kun later. (Cla.s.s rep)
「All those rumors are true! 」
『Eh』
This voice is…… (Cla.s.s rep)
A, Asakura-san? (Andou)
「Asakura-san! If everything is true, then, about the date with Andou-kun……」
「It's true! 」
「Then… Andou-kun is…? Are you saying that you guys are friends――」
「That's right! 」
「The official name of Okinawa is Okinawa――」
「That's officially correct!」[1]
Fufufu…… For some reason, it seems that the topic of my relations.h.i.+p with Andou-kun has been exposed and it has caused an uproar in the cla.s.s, but isn't this my chance? If I deliberately confirm everything they've said here and somehow everybody in cla.s.s could accept us, then from now on I can talk to Andou-kun openly without sneaking around! It, it's perfect…… (Asakura)
「In other words if we put two and two together, then……」*whisper*
「That Asakura-san is……」
「With that Andou-kun……」
「…… They're friends? 」
『EEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh!! 』
That's not…… Or rather, why haven't any of the other cla.s.smates besides me noticed it…… (cla.s.smate)
Translator's Notes:
[1] The original dialogue is :The word 本島 (hontou) means main island, or in this case refer to okinawa island, it's a pun of 本当 (hontou), a word that's usually used in confirmation.
