Chapter 18: Ginta Kondou (4)
{Ginta Kondou's POV}
As I walk side by side with gakuencho straight home as dim night starts to approach around us.
I just keep talking to her to kill time but I'm just being ignored like I'm not even here beside her.
It continues until we reached the promised destination where we have to part ways for now.
"well, I'll be heading this way"
I said as I wave an goodbye to her while still seeing her figure standing staring at the place where she belong thinking something.
It pique my interest to ask what she's thinking about but I better not dig deep of it.
"hey Kondou"
She turn her gaze towards me in an serious expression showing resolute in her eyes slight red face.
What she tells me is something not anyone could and will never expect especially if it's from someone like her.
"are you free tomorrow?"
I couldn't grasp my brain to understand the real meaning behind her words.
Are you free tomorrow? Are you free tomorrow?
I keep telling it to myself inside my head just to understand it.
....
After some bit time of silence for me to think, I finally got to understand it.
Isn't that supposed to be something to be ask for some hang-out?
And speaking of hang-out, I'm hanging out with an girl?
Ain't that means an, uhhhh you know.
A freaking date!!!
I'm suddenly having an headache that I don't know the reason.
It might be the cause of stress from studying.
And speaking of tomorrow I still have plans with the student council vice-president to hang out with "them" this weekend
It seems like I have to refuse this offer.
"sorry, I have plans tomorrow"
I'm grateful of it but I've already decide to not accept it.
"then is day after tomorrow free?"
She replied straightforwardly giving me an another similar question.
"eh? Well I'm free that day"
That surprised me, I never once thought that I get persuaded like this.
"OK then"
She looks back and start to go ahead of me.
But there's something that left me confuse.
"wait, what are you planning?"
I stop her from walking when I said this.
"there's an place I want to go with you there"
"where?"
"That's..."
Her answer is simple but left me speechless at all.
There's now a lot of question occurring in my head by her answer.
"why?"
"no reason, anyway I'll see you there after tommorow at 1:00 pm"
She continues to start walking ahead but fast enough to hear thud on her footstep as her long hair is fluttering against the wind while her appearance is slowly dissappearing in my sight.
I'm just left here standing alone in the night thinking deeply.
What should I wear on that day?
As I ponder myself on these useless thoughts I decide to go home now eyes looking a bit down on the road.
Tomorrow came.
I'm currently outside wearing casual clothes and tight pants, waiting for "them" to come here at the entrance of an theater studio.
"Yo"
I felt an greeting on my side that I feel it's towards me
I shift my face to the one familiar voice I heard.
Here they are
An broad shoulder man smiling wearing dark blue expensive leather shirt and and an pants with an cut of fabric in it, That's our student council vice-president.
And there's three two girls in his sides and one girl in his front.
Anyone could address him as an perfect definition of the word womanizer.
The one in the front is an blonde wearing an shirt with an bit of exposure of the skin, in the right side is an red hair, the one in the left side is an blue hair one with all of them wearing make ups.
If all of them are together, I guess I should address them as primary color group.
If separated then it's kiro, umi, aka.
"how's been going kondou?"
"I'm fine yukio"
Our vice-president's name is Yukio Aikito. Great both at sports and academics, and socializing also proving that he has many women around her.
I look a little down knowing our differences.
The girls seems so focus at him that it looks like I didn't even exist.
I'm fine with interacting on any guys but I'm clueless when it comes to women.
"you don't look fine at all, what happened man? Did you get rejected? Don't mind it, there's billions of women in the world"
That's something an womanizer would definitely set their mind on and pass it to others who got rejected at love .
But that's not the case for me.
"actually, that's not it"
"hmm? Then what?"
I wonder if it's fine to tell him something embarrassing.
"uhhh, it's about gakuencho"
"hmm? What about her?..... Don't tell me"
It appears the he reach to an conclusion which I hope is what I expected to be.
But reality and expectation is like parallel lines, they were never meant to be connected
"that you have a crush on her?"
"no no no, thats not it"
"?"
HE seems confused on what I'm going to say.
"I'll"
My mouth is somewhat hesitant on saying it to an public place that it cause an awkward atmosphere.
"I'll be going on an date with gakuencho tomorrow"
"..... Seriously?"
HE seems naturally surprised to hear it, he slightly pushes the girl in front him to approach me with patting my shoulder with his arm.
"congrats bro, so you really did have an crush on her huh, I respect you for gaining the courage to ask her out"
The girls are finally taking notice on me because I'm near on the person like they would worship on.
But it appears that he still don't get it.
"no, it's not me who asked her out, but her asking me out"
After clearing it, I look at Yukio who looks pale and staring blankly into space like he's been on his road to afterlife.
It's also same to the three girls in front of us.
After looking at these, I don't feel anything aside from irritation towards to how they react
