Summer a.s.signment
“How is it going?”
“Umm… well, so so I guess…”
“I see! Do your best!”
“… Yeah, thanks…”
While giving a half-hearted reply, I worked on the problems given for our summer a.s.signment .
“Coffee? Or would you rather have tea?”
“For now, I’m okay . Thanks . ”
This situation originated yesterday . I told her that I was going to the library to work on my a.s.signment since my house was hot . Hearing that, Hiiragi-chan offered for me to go to her place to work on it .
However, does she not need to go to work…?
“Ah . Seiji-kun, just now you were probably thinking something like, Haruksan seems so free . Despite how it looks, I’m not free . ”
With a super smug expression, Hiiragi-chan brought out her laptop from her work bag and opened it across from me .
“Seiji-kun, it’s Sunday, you know?”
“Aaah… I see . ”
While giving another unenthusiastic answer, I continued to solve my cla.s.sical literature problems .
“Your reactions just now were all kind of weak… It makes me quite sad!”
“Be quiet . ”
“Okay…”
Pachi pachi, she started hitting on the keys, before jumping into explanation about the work she had as a teacher .
“Bringing out personal information from school isn’t allowed, but if it’s grading, making problems, or preparing materials and such, then doing it at home is fine . ”
“…”
“I-I was ignored… that’s quite saddening…”
The problems consisted of 5 different subjects . Math, cla.s.sical literature, English, and biology . There’s nothing super troublesome like in elementary school where there were things like self-guided research, drawing pictures, or book reports . However, there was quite a large amount to work on .
There was a high amount of deviation between scores at our school . As such, just after the holiday there would be a talk about future career paths and there would also be a test on academic ability . At this point, I was thinking that there really weren’t that many great things to return to in the second year of high school .
Since she was continuing to stare really hard at me, I unconsciously stopped my hand .
“Is something wrong?”
“No . I was just thinking that the serious look in your eyes was kind of cool . ”
“R-really…?”
“That’s right . ”
Speaking of which, there were quite a few times where I also felt the same way about her . For instance, during world history cla.s.s, as I’m watching her hard at work from my seat .
“By the way, Seiji-kun, are you good with laptops?”
“I wouldn’t say I’m an expert at it, but I would say that I’m at an acceptable level . ”
Hiiragi-chan spun her laptop around to face me .
“It’s about Excel though… I want to do this part of it a little better…”
Listening to her explanations, it seems that in preparing her materials, she wanted to input data in a certain way .
“Aah . If it’s that…”
I returned the laptop to facing Hiiragi-chan and sit down next to her . Then, I begin pointing at the screen in order to give instructions .
“Ah . It’s done! Seiji-kun, you’re amazing!!”
“No, I’m not amazing at all . Excel is the one that’s amazing . ”
“Now you’re just being humble . ”
Hiiragi-chan started to teasingly poke my cheek .
“Stop it . ”
After showing my dislike, she became depressed .
“Ah… sorry . ”
Ah . This is bad . I might have said that kind of harshly… No, but, I was originally intending to go to the library to work on my a.s.signment today… I came here today because I thought that HIiragi-chan was going to be at school working . It slipped my mind that she could be working at home . I did forget it was Sunday though .
Hiiragi-chan started grab at me, like she was a dog that wanted to be paid attention to . If this was in cla.s.s, I would be really angry .
“…”
“…”
This is awkward…
In truth, I was going to invite her to hang out at night after finishing up a certain amount of my a.s.signment . No, but, Hiiragi-chan is bothering me too much during my studying . She’s also talking to much . For just a bit… I should have her repent . Just a tiny bit .
Every time I take glances at her, the depressed Hiiragi-chan seems to wither even further .
“…”
“…”
This is awkward…
However, I think it’s wrong for me to apologize here… Eh, am I just being stubborn? No, that’s not true . Definitely not . It’s not that I don’t want to apologize .
I take a glance at her once again, causing my mouth to turn into a frown .
…
Still, my way of saying things might be somewhat problematic . Dammit . What’s with this? I can’t concentrate on my questions at all!
“… I’ll be in the bedroom… . If something happens, just call out to me . ”
With a level of energy lower than ever seen before, Hiiragi-chan grabbed her laptop and disappeared into the bedroom .
Ugugugugu… This feeling of guilt…! At a time like this, the only person that I can really confide in is Natsumi-chan . However, I don’t really know how to contact her…
[For a situation like this, is it the acquaintance that’s in the wrong?]
Explaining the situation from the start, I sent a text as if I was just an acquaintance to the person involved .
Twenty seconds later, a reply came .
That was fast .
Fujimoto is totally free .
[Aaah, that’s complex! Rather, going to your girlfriend’s house over break to work on your a.s.signment, that person should just die!]
Ah . This is bad . Fujimoto might once again fall to the darkside . I see though… for a person who doesn’t have a girlfriend, this would be a luxurious worry…
Last time during the break of my second year of high school, I just did my a.s.signment, and then played RPG’s all day and night . Without even doing anything summer like, I holed up and filled my days with games . In a sense, you could say that’s very much like a summer break . Well, a non-normie’s summer break should be basically that . Thinking along those lines, this times break is already quite fulfilling .
[The girlfriend is an older beauty I heard . ]
[Please die…]
Let’s fan the flames a little more .
[Large b.r.e.a.s.t.s, beautiful legs, and a great body to be proud of . ]
[Please die… Who is that guy anyways…]
It’s me though .
[He was let into his girlfriend’s place, where she lives alone . ]
[A summer break filled with s.e.x… I’ll definitely kill him…]
We haven’t gone that far yet though .
I waited a little bit for Fujimoto, who had seemed to hit a breaking point .
[The next time I see someone, I’m going to kill them by hand…]
Everyone around Fujimoto . Run .
I was now satisfied after being able to egg him on further . As expected, for a normal second year high school student, it is natural to envy a situation like this . It was enough to cool down my head .
[You know, if you were going to say something like, oh, I was actually talking about myself, you should stop it . ]
…
“There’s no way that would be the case, comrade . ”
[I know right . lolololol . There’s no way a guy like you could ever get a girlfriend . Lololol . ]
[This is the last warning that I am going to send you… when you go out walking at night, you should watch your back . ]
[Bring it on! Come at me!]
Even as I make my way towards the bedroom behind me there wasn’t a single sound that could be coming from it . Maybe, she’s crying while hiding on her bed…? Well there’s no way an older lady like that would do that, right?
Kon kon, I knock on the bedroom door .
“Haruksan?”
“…”
I heard something from the other side of the door .
“Earlier, the way I worded things was bad… About that, sorry…”
The door opened a bit as Hiiragi-chan poked her head out .
“No… Me too, I’m sorry . I was probably a little bit annoying… You were in the middle of studying after all…”
Her eyes were a little bit red .
“Were you crying?”
“I-I wasn’t crying…”
“The truth?”
“Just a little bit . ”
Just as I thought, she was crying .
At school, Hiiragi-chan seems to be a lady that has a good grip on her life . However, when it’s around me, her mentality seems to become more immature .
“When I’m near Seiji-kun, I somehow end up just really wanting to talk to you, or wanting you to pay attention to me…”
“You’re like an elementary schooler that found someone they liked . ”
“Muu~ I can’t say anything against that though…”
While pouting a bit, Hiiragi-chan looked downwards .
“But, this is the first time I came to like someone like this… so becoming like an elementary schooler like that, forgive me for that…?”
Kuu . So cute…
If she were to open the door right now, it would instantly turn into flirting mode . I’ve got to endure it . Endure it .
“At night, I want to go somewhere with Haruksan… But before that, I would like to complete a certain amount of my a.s.signment . ”
“Eh? Where?”
“It’s over on top of the mountain . During the summer, you can see the stars really clearly . ”
“So romantic! I want to go!”
“Then, until then we should each do our own work or a.s.signment and finish, okay?”
“Yeah, I’ll do my best! If it’s like this, I can definitely give it my all!”
Hiiragi-chan is always so honest when it comes to hanging out with me .
Still, since I would get distracted, Hiiragi-chan stayed in the bedroom, while I was in the living room studying . When I finally was able to finish it, there was a feeling of liberation after settling such troublesome things, and so we ended up flirting more than usual .
“You really did your best, Seiji-kun . Now I need to reward you . ”
“No matter how you put it, it feels like I’m the one on the giving side though . ”
“Once again, your saying something so mean…”
“Do you hate it?”
With her lips that were pouting in complaint, Hiiragi-chan gave me a kiss on my cheek and on my neck .
“… I love it ♡”
As if we were animals marking our territory, we continued to give and receive kiss marks throughout the night . When I returned home, I was once again found by Sana, and was completely disinfected .
