Today, at Kasumi-sama’s invitation, I was having lunch at the Pivoine seats. I feel like I’ve been eating nothing but sweet foods recently, so today I went with a healthy spring greens and bacon pasta.
“I heard that you planned a lunch event for your class,” she said with a teasing expression.
I’ll bet this is about how I used her name on Tomoe-senpai.
“Yes, both the Student Council President and the cafeteria staff happily agreed, you see. Thanks to that, everybody was able to have a pleasant lunch together.”
“My! Huhu,” she laughed.
Suddenly, some others joined our conversation.
“Was there any need to go out of your way to ask the Student Council? Why, it almost seems as though the Student Council is ranked above us.”
“Yeah. When everything’s said and done, it’s us Pivoine that’s the highest here at Suiran.”
Oh dear~ Things have become annoying.
The Pivoine Supremecists really hate the Student Council after all.
Kasumi-sama was hanging her head awkwardly. Considering their reactions, it would be impossible to come clean about her boyfriend.
Unlike middle school, the tensions between the Pivoine and Student Council are quite pronounced here.
It’s probably because the power of the Student Council is a lot greater in the high school section. Well, considering who our current StuCo President is though, I doubt it’ll turn into an all-out confrontation, but still…
“Because I am still only a new student, I felt that perhaps it would be safer to notify the Student Council as well. However, if my conduct has caused anybody discomfort, I am truly very sorry…”
“Ah, no, it’s not your fault, Reika-san. Sorry about that. Just don’t worry about it.”
Once I started acting feeble and pitiful, they backed down surprisingly quickly. Uhehe.
That was the end of that, and lunch progressed peacefully again. Both Kaburagi and Enjou occasionally joined in on the conversation too. Apparently they weren’t going to join a club. Although, it seemed that a lot of sports clubs invited them.
“Which club did you want to join, Reika-sama? I heard that you went to check them out.”
“Yes, although I am still having trouble deciding…”
Although, the truth is that there are a few cultural clubs that I want to enter. But all of them are filled with quiet kids, so it would be like a sudden wolf in a pen of little rabbits. They definitely wouldn’t welcome me.
“How about the Tea Ceremony Club or the Flower Arrangement Club?”
“I have teachers that I have been learning both under since young, so there is really no reason to join those clubs as well.”
“I see. Is there anything else you wanted?”
“At first I was interested in the sports clubs, but…”
Suddenly, Kaburagi and Enjou glanced my way. What the heck. So what if I wanted to join a sports club.
It’s true that I don’t have a good history with mountain climbing but my P.E. results are at least average, okay! And didn’t I do pretty well during the Athletics Carnival!
It’s not that I’m bad at sports. I’m just lacking the willpower, okay.
