Chereads / The Disastrous Life of Saiki / Chapter 4 - Summer End

Chapter 4 - Summer End

Saiki (thinking):Good grief, school is starting soon. What a pain. Meeting up with "friends" again... as if seeing them every single day over the summer wasn't enough. Seriously, what's the point?

(Saiki is outside, holding a trash bag, ready to throw it away.)

Saiki (thinking):Why did I even bother leaving the house? Just to throw out the trash... should've just stayed inside.Wait that butt!

Hairo:(Falls to the ground, his pants slipping slightly) "Oh! Saiki, is that you?"

Saiki (thinking):What is he doing?

Hairo:"I'm just sprucing up the school! We spend so much time here, so I figured why not make it look its best? I'm painting it all white. I even got the principal's approval!"

Saiki (thinking):*This guy never knows when to stop. We still have two weeks before school starts, and he's already doing this...*

Hairo:"Will you help me out a bit?"

Aiura:"Eh? Oh, Saiki! What are you doing here? That long stick in your hand kinda suits you!"

Saiki:"Quit messing around and lend a hand."

Aiura: "You want *me* to help? Don't you see I just got a fresh manicure?"

Hairo:"I guess it's just you and me, Saiki. We'll knock this out together!"

Saiki (thinking):I knew I should've stayed home. These idiots... Well, I might as well get this over with.

Aiura (sensing something): "Hmm? This aura... it feels like... love?"

Imu (running up):"Finally! I found you! I've been waiting every day for months, through rain, snow, and blazing sun. All for this moment!"

Saiki (thinking):Here we go...* "Oi, enough with the melodrama."

Imu: "Please, tell me my compatibility with Teruhashi!"

Aiura:"You mean her brother?"

Imu:"No! Wait... actually, yes, both of them!"

Aiura:"Huh? Why both?"

Imu:"Just do it! I'll pay you!"

Aiura:"Fine, fine..." (Begins her ritual) "Hmm, this is strange..."

Imu: "What is it? Is it bad?"

Aiura:"No, it's just... you have a 50% compatibility with both of them."

Imu: "Oh no! My dreams... me, together with Teruhashi and her brother... this world really was the best..." (Faints dramatically, bleeding from her nose)

Aiura:"What happened to her?"

Saiki (thinking):Too much delusion... It's too gross to even bother explaining.*

Aiura:"What the...?"

Hairo (finishing the painting):There! The school looks so much better now!"

Aiura:"How did you finish so quickly?"

Saiki (thinking):He's not human. Whatever, at least I can finally go home. (Proceeds to leave)
