"I'm back."
As the door opened. I quickly got up and dropped my phone onto the bed. With hands in the air, I welcomed not Hiroyuki but what he brought with him.
"Dinner time!"
"You know it's nice to know that you actually know what you want to eat, unlike my little sister back at home."
Hiroyuki said as he passed the convenience store-bought dinner to me while he undid his shoes. I quickly grabbed the bag and took the katsu-don out of the bag.
"Funny story, I actually thought about what I wanted to eat for today since yesterday."
"Is that so? I'm going to go take a bath first. Go ahead without me."
"Don't mind if I do~"
There was a pretty long distance between our family's home and the school. Thankfully, our fathers happened to know each other from work. With some convincing, we managed to have our parents pay for our rent in this small 1DK house. It was no doubt more convenient and it also allowed us to have some time alone from our parents.
The house was only a 20 minutes walk from school and despite looking out of place among the other rich apartments around the area, it was meant to be built for students who weren't that fortunate. Of course, fortunate in comparison with the other rich beings in the school. That being said it was a comfortable shelter that did its job and did its job well.
"On second thought," Hiroyuki grabbed his meal and took the seat opposite me. "I'm going to eat first."
"Well, I'm sure it was a busy day for you at the student council."
"You could say that."
"Anything interesting happened?"
"The usual. It's only the first meeting anyway so it was more about what we are going to do for the year… Though, we got a new member to fill up the treasurer role."
"I see. Who?"
"A 1st Year student, Yuuna Sagawa."
"Yuuna… Yuuna… That name sounded really familiar… Hold on a second."
I got up from my seat and walked towards our bookshelf. Inside the bookshelves were books from home. Mostly magazines and novels. But among those reading materials…
"There it is."
It was a yearly graduation book from my time during elementary school. I flipped the book and went looking through the year's class photos. Before I found what I was looking for, I stumbled upon my old class' photo. As it was my graduating year, it brought back lots of old memories.
"What's wrong, Nobuo?" Hiroyuki said as he stretched his head out to look at what I was doing.
"It's nothing…" I snapped out of it and continued flipping, eventually finding what I was looking for. "There it is."
I walked towards Hiroyuki and showed him what I've found.
"Does she look a little like this?"
Hiroyuki confirmed the look and gave me a nod.
"Well, a little older but that's her alright. I guess she was your junior back in elementary school."
"I don't know her personally but there is no one in the school back then that doesn't know her. Girl's a genius as far as I know."
"From what Mr President said, Sagawa-san was a straight As, always first place kind of student." Hiroyuki took a bite from the 'omurice' and continued to speak with a mouthful. "Though other than that, I don't really know much about her yet… What are you doing?"
"Checking to see if Shidoni knows her or not."
"Why Shiori-san?"
"Well, you'll see. Oh, she replied. In a form of a… video?"
"What?"
I placed the phone in the middle of the table and began playing the video that Shidoni had sent us.

Welcome to Shidoni's Niwa Niwa Hostess Club where we introduce all the girls available in our school! On today's list, with a recommendation by our lovely owner, chuu~ chuu~ Nobuo-senpai~ We have Miss Yuuna Sagawa!
Yuuna Sagawa is a 1st Year student from Niwa Mura High. She may look nerdy but deep down she has a wonderful personality and a wonderful 'personality' if you catch my drift. Wink. Wink.
Yuuna-chan is the daughter of one of the strongest businessman in Japan, Chiba Sagawa. He owns the largest agriculture company in Tokyo and is a shareholder of over 100 renowned industries all around the world.
Her mother was a former award-winning actress and now an idol producer, Hak Kyung Mi. She starred in blockbuster movies in Korea that won countless awards and even had the opportunity to play in Hollywood movies too! She retired and decided to work as an idol producer as she moved to Japan when she married Yuuna's father.
Yuuna-chan is the eldest in the family with only a younger brother. Yuuna-chan had never gotten anything lower than 2nd placing in her year. And even if she did, it would most likely be due to her absence during the tests, which had never happened before. She was a studious girl through and through.
But that didn't stop her from being any less friendly to her peers. She was famous among her girlfriends as she was the powerhouse to the school's pride.
However, she was also getting attention from the boys. During Valentine's Day, she would receive countless chocolates and confessions. Sadly, she would run away from the sight of them and reject them solely by not responding to them. Boo~hoo~
With that, this concludes today's segment of Shidoni's Niwa Niwa Hostess Club~ Don't forget to SMASH the like button, OBLITERATE the subscribe button and MURDER the comment button for more content! Teehee~
For now, that's all for today and don't forget, this was all Nobuo-senpai's idea~

Both Hiroyuki and I didn't take a single bite out of our meal as we watched the video from the beginning till the end. We were dumbfounded by the editing of the video and shocked by the amount of research she did. Not only that, the way she acted as a hostess owner while acting all cute, was something that wouldn't be leaving our thoughts for a while.
"How did she do all that in such a short span of time?" Hiroyuki said as his eyes couldn't move away from the screen.
"Something tells me she did all this for all the girls before the semester even started. She even went ahead and put the blame on me. This woman I swear…"
"Well, not to say I'm surprised."
"Sasuga, Shiori-chan."
"Sasuga, Shidoni."
We said in unison, in an attempt to imitate an anime character as we laughed it off for now. However, only momentarily as I had planned to lecture her about the video in the near future.
"At least we get how the 'Yuuna' came about now that we know she is half-Japanese half-Korean."
"Well, ignoring the in-depth digging she had went through, I was tasked to guide her around the school."
"Isn't that nice, you get to spend some time with a girl."
"Is that so?"
"Well, let me give you some tips on how to properly guide a girl."
"I see."
"First, you need to make sure to always stand beside her. You don't want to stay too far behind you if not she would think you are a stalker. Nor would you want to walk too ahead if not she would think you are ignoring her presence."
"Really?"
"Then, when you reach a certain location. Always add a joke in between to keep her entertained, you want to make sure she stays in attention. That way she would know you are trying to be friendly with her."
"Is that so?"
"And then…"
As I continued bombarding him with my very 'helpful' tips, Hiroyuki was munching away on his meal and had completely turned on auto-reply mode. As for me, I had completely forgotten how bad a store-bought cold katsu-don taste like.
