Extra in the Student Council
9. You're quite popular, aren't you president?
"Oh? What's this?" As always, Chika's voice attracts the attention of every member of the student council.... But no! It was Kaguya who started it. She was curious about the magazine on the table that had been brought by the principal before.
"The principal confiscated it from the student. In accordance with inappropriate reading material as per school rules, he asked us to dispose of it." Miyuki explained continuing his share of work.
"Inappropriate reading material?" Chika was intrigued by that conversation and went to look at the magazine "E…eeekk!!" She screamed after she read a bit, the book fell off her hand and was caught by Kaguya. "Disdecent! This country is so lewd and indecent!!" Chika yelled, taking a step away from that lewd magazine.
After watching Chika's flustered reaction, of course, the boys instantly became intrigued by the content of the book. Kaguya was also intrigued, so she went to read the book too, ignoring Chika's plea not to read it.
"Let's take a look, shall we? Hmm, a survey on your first time... 34% answered, 'In high school' I see."
"No way!!" Chika snapped, "How can there be so many people who have done it?!"
34%! In other words, one third! In a class of thirty, ten students will have their first time! Then, statistically speaking, among the four inside student council's members now, one is likely to have their first time in high school!
"Well, it's only that high because the ones who would answer a survey like this are the kind of people who would like this kind of magazine, right?" Chika claimed to support herself.
"Indeed," Miyuki quickly said to support her claim. "A classic example of selection bias. In reality, it can't possibly be that high."
"Right~?" Chika replied with a giggle. before they both laughed it off together. This topic would end here and wouldn't resurface again among the student council's members, except it didn't happen.
"Do you think so?" Kaguya interrupted, "I think it's quite accurate. The figure seems perfectly reasonable to me."
"Don't you think so, Katsuragi-san?"
"...." Unlike usual, Shuu had been silent since earlier. why? To him, that figure was perfectly normal, among the four members, at least one had done it. There's no need to ask who it is. For Shuu, it was like, Ask in your heart… there you have the answer!
It's not like Shuu's embarrassed or afraid of what he's done, there's just no need to brag about it. If he had a choice not to answer, he wouldn't.
But now Kaguya called out to him. Shuu doesn't have a choice, or it would become more suspicious. So he acted the same way as Kaguya, naturally and calmly.
"Yes," Shuu nodded. "The figure is reasonable to me too." He supported her claim.
""!?"" Miyuki and Chika were shocked by Kaguya and Shuu. It's two vs. two now.
"Um… It's hard for me to believe, but have you done it before, Kaguya-san?" Chika lowered her voice and asked fearfully.
"Yes, quite some time ago," Kaguya replied like nothing.
"EEeeeehhh?!" Chika shouted.
"W, woah. Aomori's area code is 017." Miyuki decided to run from reality.
Even Shuu flicked his head and stared at Kaguya with disbelief.
"I think it's quite normal for high school students, no?" Kaguya glanced at the two, who obviously suffered mental damage from this conversation. "Or one would have to be raised in a completely loveless environment, don't you agree?"
""Ugh!"" Chika and Miyuki were hit by mental damage, it's very effective.
Miyuki acted like he didn't hear him and ran away from reality again, while Chika quickly went to Shuu and asked, "Shuu, am I too late? Should I do it sooner??"
Shuu patted her head to calm her down. "No, it's not," Shuu denied. "You don't have to care about others, others have their own lives, and we also have our own lives and pace." He also consoled and advised her.
Kaguya only intended to state a fact, but when she saw the impatience of others, she realized something. Humans tend to become impatient when they realize that they are falling behind those around them. Thus...
I'm too late -> I need a girlfriend -> Shinomiya, Go out with me!
Confession!!
Kaguya has already formed a plan at this point.
"How ridiculous…" Miyuki was unable to bear it anymore. His words were like a gunshot before the race started in Kaguya's mind. It's the start of their battle.
"Ara? You're quite popular, aren't you president?" Kaguya taunted Miyuki. "But you don't have a girlfriend, do you?"
Agitation!
"...." Miyuki was silent for a while, thinking his way out, "No, you're right. I don't have a relationship with a special someone…. right now."
As a Shinomiya Kaguya who used to play with words in her everyday life. There's no way she didn't realize Miyuki's play of words, it was the same with Shuu, who didn't try to add himself to the skirmishes.
"Ah, so naturally, you have experience then?" Kaguya added a follow-up and cornered Miyuki.
"W…well, I suppose that whenever I feel like it," Miyuki can't abandon the ship he jumped into.
"I see… I thought since the president has a little sister, you do it all the time whenever you please." Kaguya stated a simple 'fact' or that's how she thinks of it.
"Haha, Indeed!" Miyuki hastily replied before he suddenly realized just how strange her lines are... At that instant, the air in the student council room just froze to absolute zero!
"No way!! the hell!! Are you an idiot?!" Miyuki roared.
Even so, Kaguya's initial thought hasn't changed yet, she only thought Miyuki was agitated by her, so she calmly replied, "She's your family, it wouldn't be strange at all, wouldn't it?" She said another simple 'Fact'.
"I did it with a newborn nephew of mine... on camera," Kaguya said as she sipped her tea. "How nostalgic...."
"Madness!!" Miyuki shouted in flabbergasted.
"It won't do. To fear human contact that much, Haa..." Kaguya sighed "This is also current society's darkness, I guess."
"No, it's you!!" Miyuki retorted, "You're the darkness of nobility!"
"What's so strange?" Kaguya said, "With how Katsuragi Aoi-sama is like that; Katsuragi-san also does it all the time with his mother, doesn't he?"
"You do?!" Miyuki quickly turned to Shuu.
From the point Kaguya started to say Miyuki could always do it with his little sister, Shuu realized there was some misconception in their conversation. and before long, Shuu deduced the reason why Kaguya was able to be this calm. Thus….
Shuu acted a little embarrassed to answer then... "Yes, I do," he replied.
""WHAAATT!!?"" Both Miyuki and Chika screamed at the same time.
"See, it's normal. Even Fujiawara-san does it with her pet, Pesu, all the time." Kaguya continued to get wild.
"You too!?" Miyuki shouted at Chika.
"I don't!! Don't get me involved, please!!" Chika instantly refuted while flustered.
"You're peas in the same pod! You two are the darkness of nobility!!" Miyuki shouted.
(Is the high nobility's education that abnormal? for them to be this twisted), Miyuki started to turn his brain on full power. (It wasn't on the level to have such an utter lack of common sense and know so little about the world.)
(Wait, know little about the world?) Miyuki succeeds in finding his clue.
"....Shinomiya" Miyuki called, "I just ask you in case: Do you know what it means when they say 'your first time?'"
"Sigh.." Shinomiya huffed at his question "Don't make fun of me, please. As a lady, at least I have that knowledge. It's when you kiss someone, right?"
"Good grief," Shinomiya didn't realize yet; it was the second time today she froze down the student council room to absolute zero.
Miyuki had a very difficult face at this realization. "Shinomiya..." he uttered, trying to explain, when Chika interrupted him. "President, let me handle this."
As Miyuki saw off Chika, she went to explain the real meaning of the first time to Kaguya. Miyuki realized something else. (There's another one!) Miyuki turned his attention toward Shuu, and what he saw...
"Bwahhahahaa." Shuu lay on the couch, laughing until tears flowed out of his eyes.
"Of course, that's what he would do," Miyuki muttered.
A few minutes later, Shuu went to take a picture of Kaguya's embarrassed state to tease her in the future.
Result of today's battle: (Due to lack of knowledge) Kaguya's loss.
