The story of Us
Assassination Classroom by. Yūsei Matsui
Chapter 3- School trip
In the boys room
"Are you interested in any of the girls in our class?" someone asked the red devil.
"Hmm.. Okuda-san I guess." Karma replied.
With a shock expression someone asked "Why?"
"She seemed like she'd be able to cook up some shady medicines for my prank." he replied with an evil expression on his face.
"Just.. NO!" everyone thought.
"Guys whatever we talk about here will remain a secret between us." said the male class representative, but before he could continue they spotted their octopus-like teacher peeking at the door. Someone shouted "Get him!" with that the boys started running after their teacher carrying their anti- sensei weapon.
At the girls room Bitch- sensei are talking about her experiences about being an assassin when suddenly they discovered that their octopus-like teacher was sitting and listening to them. So in return the girls ask their teacher about his love life in which he quickly flee causing the girls to run after him.
With everyone tired from running after their octopus-like teacher both the boys and girls headed to their respective rooms and have easily fallen asleep. Except for a certain redhead boy and a bespectacled girl.
"This is so relaxing." eyes closed as the warm water of the hot spring envelope her body. Suddenly she felt the water move and immediately opened her eyes, with blurry vision she asked "Who's there?"
"Okuda-san?" came a startled reply.
Recognizing the voice she replied with confusion "Umm… Karma-kun? What are you doing here?"
With a chuckle he said "Well it's an open bath."
"WHAT?!" shocked the girl almost stands up then she realised she was not wearing anything at all with that she sunk down further until only her eyes and hair are visible. "I didn't notice the sign before I went in." face red she said.
"Figures." he said while standing up. "I'll leave now Okuda-san."
Upon seeing Karma slowly standing up, Okuda turns her back on him and says "Umm.. You can stay, I'll just go. Umm.. Karma-kun should be the one relaxing after all that's happened on this trip."
Karma let out a small laugh "Tell you what Okuda-san let's both stay I think the two of us needed this. After all, we're going back to reality tomorrow. Let's just enjoy this."
Looking at his bespectacled classmates back the redhead felt something stirred into his heart, he shrugged his head and closed his eyes.
"Ehh… Karma-kun?"
No answer was heard. After a while Okuda turned her head to take a peek at him, she was surprised at what she saw. Karma's eyes were close and he's leaning at the edge of the bath. "He looks so peaceful and… Handsome.. Ehh.. What?" confused the bespectacled girl just looked up and stared at the starry sky.
"Beautiful." She can't help but utter.
"Yeah." she heard the redhead replied while also looking at the sky.
The two students just stared at the sky enjoying the silence.
Outside people were disappointed to see a sign by the entrance of the mixed bath that state "Closed for maintenance."
