Pass the ball Maki, I'm open!! Shouted a player on Toshigawa Academy's soccer team. Here you go upperclassman said Maki as he sent the ball curving towards the goal and his teammate heads the ball into the net scoring a goal. Not bad, nice pass rookie said the Soccer player.
In class 1T there was complete disorder as the students were holding different conversations and the noise was disrupting the class next door. Good morning everyone said Hayami-sensei in a serious but disappointed tone.
Good morning, Sensei said everyone respectfully because they were afraid of how Hayami sounded and the glare that she gave. Now I don't have the time to give you guys a lecture on your conduct but just to jog your memories ,you are the top of the grade so you should represent your class better than this.
Now then, for this homeroom session I would like for you to select your class representatives , you guys can vote for whoever you deem worthy , just write their name on a piece of paper and place them in this box. After that, I will count the votes . The person with the highest votes will become the class rep and they will choose their assistant. Get started on the voting said Hayami-sensei.
One by one the students anonymously made their votes for class representative until all of them had submitted their vote. Okay, so now that all of you have voted I will check to see who has the most votes said Hayami-sensei.
It seems that Rie Morioka has gotten six votes which is the highest, so she will be your class representative. Th…thank you everyone for voting for me said Rie as she stuttered due to being shy and nervous.
Okay Miss Morioka, choose who you would like to assist you with your duties. Rie looks around the class and tried not to make eye contact with anyone until her eyes were locked on Shino who was staring into space.
I would like to be assisted by Katsuragi, is that alright Teacher? Asked Rie.
Huh! Nnnn…no why me, I can't do that type of work, speaking up for my class and making suggestions to the school board , I can't said Shino. I see, perfect choice Rie said Hayami-sensei. But Hayami-sensei , I don't want to said Shino.
Huh! What was that? Speak up I couldn't hear you said Hayami-sensei in a serious and cold tone. What I said was that, I'm happy to become her assistant. That's what I thought. She's so scary shino said to himself.
School is not only about getting good grades and aiming for your goals , it's also about development of character, confidence , the ability to stand up for one's self and applying the knowledge gained from experience. Being the assist to Rie will help you grow as a person in the long run so stop complaining said Hayami-sensei .
Yes sensei, I understand. Alright so Rie Morioka assisted by Shino Katsuragi will be your class representatives this year any objections to this selection? Asked Hayami-sensei and everyone in the class responded with a no. Okay good, you two should get to know each other more so that you can feel comfortable working together since it will be a long year.
I finally got the chance to be near to Katsuragi, I can finally thank him for what he did that day. I will now be able to be friends with him and eventually he'll notice me, wait what am I saying Rie said to herself as she started blushing. How am I going to manage all this and training, I won't have any free time for myself at all Shino said to himself as he sulks.
Now that this is settled let's begin the.... Hayami-sensei was interrupted by an announcement made by the student council president. Good afternoon everyone, Sachiko Takahashi and Tetsuo Kawaguchi please report to the student council room, I repeat Sachiko Takahashi and Tetsuo Kawaguchi please report to the student council room said Hitomi.
That girl, couldn't she have waited until the school bell rang.You both have my permission to leave the class to go to the student council room. You two scored the highest points on the entrance exam so I expect that you won't loiter or skip homeroom after you're done.
Yes Teacher, you have our word, let's go Kawaguchi. I'm glad that you came Tetsuo Kawaguchi, please both of you sit down said Hitomi as she poured them tea. What do you want with me?Asked Tetsuo bluntly.
Straight to the point I see , I like that about you, well then let me enlighten you. I explained to your classmates as well as you that the former student council members have graduated. I was not listening said Tetsuo. Huh? Excuse me? The information you gave had nothing to do with me so I ignored whatever you were saying it's not like it applied for me anyways.
Hitomi who was suprised by Tetsuo's behavior clears her throat and got to the point. So anyway, the reason for calling you here is to ask you to join the student council as our secretary. If you join you'll receive more benefits as the school headswill prolong the scholarship you have received as well as coverage for your education in your second and third year, so what do you say? Asked Hitomi.
Sorry, but I will not join the student council.
I see, may I ask why? Asked Hitomi. Firstly even though you're the student council president you're quite a conniving person, using the fact that I'm on a scholarship to try and manipulate me into accepting your proposal, it might have worked on anyone else but not me because this was the norm where I was from. Secondly, my sister gave me a calling, it would be rude of me to abandon her wishes that's all said Tetsuo.
it's about time for me to take my leave, don't want to keep my teacher waiting, see you said Tetsuo as he left and closed the door behind him. That boy is a strange one, but I can't say that I'm not interested in his opinions of me said Hitomi intrigued.
I already told you that he was going to reject your proposal said Sachiko. That doesn't mean that I'm going to give up on recruiting him, we still have time before the council members are set in stone and need someone like him on our board said Hitomi.
