She's so pretty. Who is that?

Dude, look.

What? Whoa, it's Cujo.

Great way to start the day.

Good day. A pleasure, Miss Cujo.

How fortunate that our paths have crossed.

Is there something you need?

I was just thinking we've never spoken.

The name's Ando. I'm a second year.

You may not know me, but your sister speaks of you often.

And as a result, I've been simply dying to meet you.

That said, if you're free for lunch today, perhaps you could grace me with

your presence. No, thank you.

Fair enough, then. In that case, might we at least exchange contact details for

later? Oh, let me be frank.

I have absolutely zero interest in you.

If that's all, I must be going now.

Oh wait, one note, your necklace is against school rules.

Jeez,

she just knocked down the most popular guy in our grade.

Talk about high standards, huh?

Good morning, Kuze.

I said good morning, Kuze. Late night with anime?

Oh, hey.

Good morning to you, Alia.

Uh, yeah.

You figured me out.

You never learn your lesson, do you?

How many times have you fallen asleep in class now? If you can't watch

responsibly, then you should give it up.

The anime was over by 1am, so it's not like the sun was coming up yet.

It was the episode Discussion that got me this time.

Discussion, you say?

Uh-huh.

Social media or some message board or something?

Not quite.

Two-hour phone call with an otaku pal of mine. Are you insane?

Insane, huh?

Yes, perhaps.

So taken was I with a great work of art that I lost track of time and place.

Is it insane to love so deeply?

If so, then I accept your rebuke proudly.

I take it all back.

You're not insane. You are just plain stupid.

You sure are in rare form today, aren't you?

What is it?

Did you just say something?

Yes, I did. I was remarking on how pathetic you look. Well, excuse me then.

Eh? What's wrong?

Oh, jeez.

Sorry, Alia. Can you share your chemistry book with me?

Really? You forgot it again?

Yeah, I guess I left it at home.

All right.

I'll allow it.

Thank you.

Cobalt. What comes next?

Anyone?

Let's hear it, Kuze.

Huh? Oh, uh... That hurt.

Hmm.

If you know, please tell the class.

Yes, sir.

Wait. What was the question?

Copper, right?

Incorrect.

Cujo, give it a shot.

Yes, sir.

It's number eight, nickel. Correct.

Try to pay closer attention in class, Guze.

Right. Sorry.

Why did you give me the wrong answer?

I was simply indicating which question he was asking.

Oh, come on. You were obviously pointing at the second choice.

That's slander, you know.

At least try to hide your joy.

What was that?

I said that you were a moron.

Why are you sitting there calling me a cutie? I understood that, you know, both

times. What kind of weird mind games are you playing here?

Who are you calling a baby, weirdo?

See you

next

time.

when I was in grade school.

I used to play with this Russian girl all the time. She lived near my

grandpa's place.

I'm a bit out of practice these days, but I can pretty much understand

conversational Russian at least.

And now I'm in this completely bizarre situation.

I've got this super cute Russian girl fawning over me in secret, only it's not

secret because she doesn't know I understand her!

But think about how she'd react if I told her.

You're not allowed to use your mobile phone during school hours, you know.

Unless this is an emergency, which I seriously doubt.

Actually, that's precisely what it is. This is quite urgent.

I'm going to regret this, but go on.

Free gacha rolls, but they run out in ten minutes.

You have some nerve pulling this stunt next to a student council officer.

You're not that sore!

I just got Tsukuyomi!

Give me that!

Tsukuyomi? Like the goddess of the moon in Japanese mythology?

In that case, why is her hair silver instead of black?

I don't know. To remind people of the moon?

But who cares about the details? As long as she's cute.

You are too kind, milady.

Man, I really pulled Tsukuyomi!

What was

that? I called you an addict, a total game junkie.

Hey, you shouldn't use those words lightly.

What? I am strictly free to play, so you can't exactly call me a junkie. That

title should be reserved for the pay-to-win whales only, don't you agree?

Hmm.

So what you're saying is no one wants to be put in the same category as you, even

whales. You're a savage!

For a moment there, I thought you were serious for once.

Now, now, serious is my middle name.

And I assure you, madam, that's an understatement.

More like the overstatement of the century.

Come on, we've got like 80 more years to go.

I want girls!

So anyway, what are you eating today?

Spicy mapo ramen.

Come on, I'm having a crisis here!

To be fair, that is kind of the norm. A stylish guy like you wouldn't

understand.

Look, the student council's here.

The meeting ran too long. Is there an open table?

It'll be okay.

There's room, and we can split up and sit with our own classmates today.

You're right, Masha.

I'll wait there with the perfect solution.

The Cujo sisters are both so pretty.

It's in the genes, I guess. They really are.

Especially Maria. I sure wish I could get to know her better.

By the way, I haven't seen him, but I heard she has a boyfriend.

Huh.

Guys ask her out all the time, but she always turns them down.

She says she's already dating someone.

Plus, talk as she wouldn't have a shot even if she was single.

Shut up!

Acting cool because you're friends with Lady Alia? You suck!

This is so unfair!

I've seen the way you two talk. She even lets you call her by that cute little

nickname.

Yeah, sure.

But she mostly just lectures me all the time. That still puts you ahead of

everyone else.

She pretty much never even says a word to the other guys.

I guess.

Must be because we've sat together for over a year now. If I had to shoot my

shot with one of those three, then I'd go for Suo.

She's in our grade, and she's a lot more approachable than Lady Alia.

I know she's out of my league, but I feel like there's at least some kind of

chance.

I'm not so sure about that one.

I've heard she's turned down a ton of guys.

Even more so than Alia has.

Yeah, maybe because she's rich.

Do you think it's possible her parents already set her up with someone?

Know anything, Masachika?

What are you asking me for?

Don't play dumb.

Masachika, it's crowded today. May I sit with you?

Uh-huh, if you want to.

Are both you guys cool with that?

Yeah, totally. Sure. Of course.

Thanks so much.

I see we ordered the same thing.

You have good taste, Masachika.

I didn't expect such a dignified lady to like it so spicy.

Please, I'm no different than anyone else at this table. I'm just another

classmate. I mean, if you say so.

I love ramen. It's one of my favorite things to eat on my days off. You don't

think I go to fancy restaurants all the time, do you?

Uh, no.

Hmm. The flavor is quite nice.

Though I do think it could stand to be a tiny bit spicier. I agree.

Wish we had some chili oil to top it with.

I could propose it to the student council.

Our culinary needs must be met as well.

That sounds like an abuse of power to me.

It's a joke.

Hold on. Since when are you two friends?

Since we were kids.

So a long time, I'd say.

Is that so?

Oh, yes. We've been going to school together since preschool, actually.

I see.

I didn't realize the two of you were friends.

I would say we're more like associates than friends, right now.

I'd like to be friends, though.

Assuming that Elisa isn't sick of me after all our school meetings.

I'm not much fun to be around. You could find a better friend.

Interesting. You're not exactly thrilled with the idea of being friends, but

you're not opposed to it either, it seems.

Well,

I suppose not.

We're done.

A pleasure having lunch with you, lady.

See you later.

Okay.

Sorry, the light is just too blinding for me.

Well, I've got you.

I don't think I've forgotten. Have you considered my offer? Because I still

want you to join the student council.

I've told you a thousand times I'm not interested.

You'd be a great fit, though. For starters, you already get along well

with me and Elisa.

Besides that, you have experience as student council vice president.

Huh? It wasn't so long ago, even. In middle school, I was the president and

Masachika was the VP.

Is that so?

I only ran because Yuki was begging me to. There was a deal at our school.

If you want to be a candidate for student council president, then you have

to have a running mate.

Masachika may seem lazy if you haven't known him for long, but believe it or

not, he's capable of getting things done. Sometimes.

Uh, believe it or not?

You heard me.

Seems

you're quite

close. Surprised?

Yes, very much so. I never imagined that any girl would want to be friends with

you. Um, but...

What is it?

It's just, I mean, you count, don't you?

I didn't realize that you considered us friends.

Huh? Of course.

No, you're right.

We are friends.

Hey, where are you going?

I remembered something I had to do at the student council office.

What's with her?

I don't know that I'm a mousetrap.

Mousetrap, get up here.

Look, what a sunset.

Look at that.

I was so excited when I met that girl. I studied Russian like crazy just to talk

to her.

And now, I don't even remember her name.

Why, top of the morning to you.

Flawless, if I do say so myself.

Hey, good morning.

Yes, same to you.

I woke up real early today and had nothing to do.

Thought I might as well come in and take care of the chores.

You, waking up early just to work? Hell must have frozen over.

Wow, Alia, you really know how to make a guy feel nice.

You've done enough, so let me wipe off the blackboard. Sounds good.

What happened to your sock?

Did you step in a puddle or something?

I'm not like you. I don't just walk into messes.

Do you mean that literally or figuratively?

We don't need to make this about you.

A truck splash and dashed me on the way here.

Ah, the old splash and dash, huh?

Yes, although it was at least partially my fault for walking so close to the

road. But I have some spare socks here, so I'll survive.

Hey, Kuze?

Huh? You were a student council officer with Suho in middle school, right?

Like she said at lunch? Uh, yeah. Why?

Hmm.

I was just thinking.

Go on.

You're sure you don't want to join again?

So now you're gonna bug me too?

Just answer.

I'm sure. The student council is not for me, okay?

But what if I...

Nothing. Just forget it.

Hey, Kuze, you wouldn't mind grabbing one of the spare socks from my locker,

would you?

Huh? Oh, I can't very well get it myself now that I've taken the wet one off.

So get...

To work.

All right, fine.

I'm going in.

Here.

Put it on for me.

Huh? What's wrong?

Really? You gotta ask, because it's pretty obvious.

It's a thank you for grabbing my thought for me. It would be a nice little treat

for you, right? Well, I suppose some people might be into that sort of thing.

So it's not a treat? Oh, no!

It is.

This whole flirting with me but only in Russian thing is starting to break my

brain.

Maybe she's just stressed out from trying to be the perfect student all day

and this is how she deals with it.

Like, even if it's in secret, she's exposing herself to me.

Wait, exposing herself?

Does that mean she's an exhibitionist?

What's wrong?

Oh, I was just wondering what you said.

Nothing much.

Simply called you a coward, that's all.

Forget it. I'll put the sock on myself.

No. Stay right there.

What?

Hey, wait!

What are you doing? But indeed, putting on your sock as you requested.

That was just a joke! You called me a coward, so you leave me with no joy.

Gotta maintain my pride sometimes, at least.

Hey! Whoa! Not so fast!

I have to prepare myself for this!

Hey, come on. Would you stop squirming?

It's embarrassing.

Take it easy.

Watch where you put your hands, creep.

I think I'm dead.

Do I work this out?

Hey, Alia?

Alia!

What do you need, Kuzey? Listen, about before... I

don't suppose you could forgive me for this morning?

It's fine.

I'm not angry anymore.

Huh?

Also...

I'm sorry for kicking you then. I do hope you're feeling better now.

Um, I'm okay.

I'm pretty tough, so... You sure?

It seems like your neck is bothering you.

It's nothing for you to worry about, really. Why, if anything, I should be

thanking you for giving me a wonderful peek into the Promised Land.

You got a peek?

You said?

Does that mean you saw my...

What to say?

Thank you for the truly spectacular view. I'll remember it as long... I

can't believe it! You fool!

You're out of your mind!

Now it's hard!

I'm sorry! That was over the line. I take it all back!

My bad.

Would you please stop chasing me? I just want to talk this out, okay?

I swear there's nothing to talk about.

Holy crap, you sure do know how to move, huh?

Are you okay?

I would be a whole lot better if you hadn't chased me all over the school.

I'm feeling that a bit myself.

But anyway, I'm sorry.

And I mean it.

It's no big deal. I just needed a second.

I am the one who started it.

Fair princess, a tribute.

Are you mocking me?

Why perish the thought, milady? I am merely presenting you with a humble

peace offering.

I don't know what you're doing, but stop.

I noticed. You always drink this.

So I know you love it.

I guess I'll take it.

I just happen to be thirsty.

I wonder why.

An indirect kiss?

She's laying it on thick today. What if I say yes? Is this my chance?

Can I get some mouth-to-can-to-mouth action?

What did you say?

I said nothing beats a sweet drink after a hard workout.

You mean a cold drink, right?

Thank you.
