The student council meeting for the sports festival concluded without much fanfare. It was mostly an introductory session for class representatives, with roles being distributed for tasks such as arch installation, reception, summoning duties, crowd control, refereeing, commentary, and so on. We were told to think about which positions we wanted to volunteer for by the next meeting. Some of the roles were quite unique, but in a school like this with its special brand of sports festival, it wasn't surprising.
After the short 40-minute meeting, I stepped out of the multipurpose room. The sky outside had already darkened, and stars were beginning to twinkle in the dusk.
I followed Shibahime's back with my eyes as she made her way through the crowd, heading straight for home.
"What are you going to cook with that?"
Rindou's voice broke through my thoughts. She was pointing at the plastic bag in my hand.
