Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the story shifts further as Koshi is in danger of getting expelled unless his parents or relatives show up to represent him in facing the principal…and how the Goddess Dormitory tenants are going to help…
Well then, read on and enjoy!
The scene shifts at a posh house where the bully lives, and the bully is crying like a spoiled brat after telling his parents what happened at school, though he made it appear that Koshi is responsible for the predicament he is in, and the bully's parents took their son's word for it.
"Oh no! Is this true?"
"My baby boy is mutilated!"
"Wahhhh! It's true! It's true! That Nagumo started it! Waaahh!"
"That damn brat! He'll pay!"
"Make him pay, dear! Our son must get justice!"
"Waaahhhh! Waaahhh!"
"Now, now…"
"Everything will be okay…"
This family is identified as the Ijime family, which consists of:
- Mr. Ijime
- Mrs. Ijime
- Kitanai Ijime
The Ijime parents vowed to their son, Kitanai, that Koshi will pay for the TRANSGRESSION he committed and are determined to keep Koshi out of school until he is expelled.
"Don't worry. We'll make that brat pay."
"Yes, son. We'll see to it."
"Sob…sob…"
"We're going tomorrow. At Kitanai's school. We'll talk to the principal…and embarrass that Nagumo brat. That I promise."
"That's the spirit, dear."
"No one makes a fool out of our family! Our proud family name! Right?"
"Right!"
"You hear that, son? You will get justice!"
"Yay!"
Mr. Ijime told his wife to tend to Kitanai's wounds while he will consult his influential lawyer to sue Koshi's parents, unaware of the fact that Koshi's dad abandoned him almost a year ago while his mom and other relatives seemingly abandoned him as well.

Shiranai furi wo shiteru dake desho?

Ch. 2: Purokishi no mondai
Seikan Private Women's College Student Dormitory: Goddess Dormitory.
It was 17:00, and "dorm mother" Koshi Nagumo arrived home, and Frey was there and she greeted him in a cheerful way, but saw the sullen look on his face as he walked past her and went straight to his room, and this made her wonder what happened, as Koshi was cheerful during the day.
Sutea arrived shortly and there she asked Frey if Koshi arrived, and when Frey asked what happened to Koshi, Sutea reluctantly told her what transpired earlier, and this made Frey feel concerned, as she and the Goddess Dormitory tenants are aware that Koshi's relatives have not shown themselves to him for the past 11 months.
Moreover, Frey thought carefully as she knew that Koshi has to bring a guardian to his school in order to represent him as the principal demanded in order to act as mediator between Koshi and the bully, and there Sutea brought out her smartphone as she revealed that she managed to record the incident and even showed it to the principal, but the principal insisted that Koshi bring a guardian to him or else he will remained suspended.
"Hmm…that principal is being unreasonable."
"Indeed. Despite the evidence and the testimony that Kento and I gave…the principal wouldn't…"
"This surely is a problem."
"With Koshi's dad abandoning him…his mom and Koshi's relatives not showing up until now…it'll be an uphill battle."
"Yes, and it's going to be a hassle."
"What can we do? At this rate Koshi won't be able to get back to school…"
"Hmm…"
"…"
By then Atena and Kiriya arrived and overheard the conversation, and this made the two girls feel concerned given Koshi's situation, as his father abandoned him and that neither his mother or other relatives show up until now, and they wondered what they could do to help him and convince the principal to let Koshi return to school.
Mineru showed up while adjusting her eyeglasses, and tells the others that she has come up with a way to solve the situation, which the others look on as they hoped that Mineru's ideas would help solve the problem involving Koshi, the bully and the principal.
After Mineru told them her suggestion, Frey, Atena, Kiriya and Sutea sweat-dropped as they had a feeling that things might not be as easy as they hoped for, yet they realize that this is the best they can do for Koshi.
"Why do I get the feeling that this might pose a problem…?"
"I agree…but…"
"It can't be helped. We'll have to go with Mineru's plan."
"Looks like it."
"Then we will go for this."
"Yeah. We got to get Koshi reinstated."
"Right."
"Then it's settled."
Behind the bushes, Koshi and Sutea's classmate, Kento Tanaka, accidentally overheard the conversation, as he secretly followed Sutea for he intend to help Koshi in any way he could, and now he is shocked to discover that his classmate has no relatives to care for him and that he is staying at a women's dormitory where the tenants are the schoolmates of his elder sister.
And now he overheard that the tenants of the Goddess Dormitory are going to help Koshi get reinstated at school, and Kento decided to keep this a secret as Koshi is his friend.
"I better keep this a secret…"
As Kento is about to leave, he is startled when Kiriya showed up and asked him what does he want and why is he hiding behind the bushes, and there Sutea saw him and asked what is he doing here, which she is mentally worried that Kento may have overheard the discussion.
Sighing, Kento told Sutea why he came here and said that he wanted to help Koshi as he couldn't just ignore what happened to his classmate after what the bully did to Koshi.
Mineru then approached Kento and asked him what really happened, and there he told her what he witnessed and told her that the principal can be a problem as he seemed to be ignorant of the fact that the evidence showed that the bully started this situation.
Kento sweat-dropped as Mineru grinned as she said that she now has come up with something that would make the principal take back the suspension order, which Sutea wondered what Mineru can do after seeing her grinned like a maniac.
"Mineru…"
"Hee-hee-hee…"
"What's with the grin…?"
"Hee-hee-hee…"
"Are you planning something…?"
"Hee-hee-hee…"
"Mineru…?"
"Hee-hee-hee…"
Mineru then had everyone go inside the Goddess Dormitory, and minutes later Sutea reluctantly told Kento the circumstances behind Koshi's staying here, why he is working as the dorm mother and why Mineru will pose as Koshi's guardian.
Kento was utterly stunned as he had no idea that Koshi was suffering like this even though he saw him acting as his usual self, and now he roughly saw why his classmate reacted rather violently when the bully made disparaging and offensive comments toward Atena.
Moreover, he is taken aback at meeting Atena for the first time and saw how attractive she looked, and there he mentally wondered if Koshi coming to her defense after the bully badmouthing her is the reason why Koshi lashed out is the reason why he reacted violently towards him.
There Kento was told to keep this discussion a secret, which he nodded and offered his support, and minutes later Mineru told Koshi about what they are planning to do, and Koshi became worried about the complications it might entail, though she assured that she has everything covered up.
"Its okay, Koshi-kun."
"Um…"
"I got this covered."
"Really…?"
"Yup. Just leave it to me."
"Are you sure…?"
"Yup. I got everything sorted out."
"…"
Then Koshi was surprised to see Kento here and though relieved that his classmate promised to keep everything a secret, he is still worried that he might also get dragged in to trouble yet Kento assured to his classmate that he will help in any way he could.
Sutea then told Koshi that Mineru seemed to know what to do and urges him to have faith in Mineru as well as telling him not to regret attacking the bully because Koshi responded justifiably because the bully made harassing words against Atena, which Kento agreed.
"So don't feel guilty, Koshi."
"Sutea is right. You did nothing wrong."
"If the bully's parents tried to intimidate you…don't let them. Stand your ground."
"In case the principal take their side…"
"We'll figure out a way."
"We'll back you up."
"Yeah."
"So stay strong, Koshi."
As the discussion took long, Mineru and Frey agreed that Kento would spend the night here as it was getting late, and Atena contacted Kento's elder sister, and reluctantly told here why he is here, and surprisingly she accepted.
Later, at his room, Koshi apologized to Kento for getting dragged into this mess though Kento assured that everything will be okay, as he wanted Koshi to be reinstated at school and for the bully to get his comeuppance, as the bully's actions were uncalled for.
While Koshi was relieved to hear this, awkward hilarity ensued as Kento unknowingly asked why Koshi reacted quite violently when the bully made disparaging comments toward Atena, which Koshi just stared at the floor as he realized that he could have simply ignored what the bully said, however, making a comment about Atena caused him to react like that hence why he assaulted the bully.
He reluctantly told Kento that he was offended by what the bully said about Atena hence he had to protect her by taking action, which Kento twitched his eyes at hearing the answer. He sighed and tells Koshi that while what he did can be justified, its still not a viable answer, and there he said that based on what he just heard, it sounded like Koshi is defending his GIRLFRIEND, causing Koshi to blush deeply.
Kento sweat-dropped at seeing his classmate's reaction and wondered if this is the case or not, seeing him looking away and this made him feel worried of what reaction he saw in Koshi.
"Er…Koshi...?"
"…"
"Are you okay…?"
"…"
"Did…I tick you off…?"
"…"
"Koshi…?"
"…"
Outside, Atena accidentally overheard the discussion, and she too blushed at hearing this as she still harbor feelings for Koshi even though she really wanted to be as Koshi's elder sister-figure, but after hearing and seeing Koshi's answer and reaction, she wondered if Koshi feels the same towards her.
Frey then showed up and whispered to Atena, naughtily commenting that romance is in the making, causing the pink-haired beauty to blush deeper and has to keep her voice down and said that Frey got the wrong idea, though the cosplaying fanatic smirked, as she is one of the two girls who is aware of the secret crushes between Atena and Koshi.
"Really, Atena-chan...?"
"…"
"So Koshi is just a little brother to you…? Or something deeper than that…?"
"Wh-what are you implying…?"
"I think Koshi-kun has feelings for you…"
"Huh?"
"Just as you have feelings for him…"
"Th-that's..."
Mineru showed up and placed a hand on Atena's shoulder and teasingly assured that her LITTLE PRINCE will be okay, and this made Atena blushed deeper and whispered in a panicking way, saying that she sees Koshi as a younger sibling-type and nothing more, which Mineru and Frey grinned as they knew that Atena is trying to hide the fact that she harbored feelings for Koshi.
"Oh…?"
"Really…?"
"…"
"So you're saying that Koshi is not your type…?"
"Be honest, Atena-chan..."
"Y-you got the wrong idea…"
"Hmm…?"
"Oh…?"
"H-honest…!"
Not far, Sutea sighed and wondered if things will be okay, though Kiriya assured Koshi will be able to get back to school and that Mineru seemed to have figured everything out, and urged Sutea to have faith in Mineru, which Sutea sighed and said that things would go well without complications.
"Have faith. I'm sure Mineru can sort things out."
"Hopefully it doesn't involve another of her potions…"
"A-ha-ha-ha…"
"But I guess this is better than nothing."
"Ease up. We'll get there if something goes wrong."
"I guess."
"Well, let's go to sleep."
"Fine."
-x-
The next day, Koshi, Sutea and Kento are standing outside the gates of the school, as the trio are bracing themselves as this is a crucial moment for Koshi, as they are pinning their hopes on Mineru, who will be posing as Koshi's guardian.
Mineru placed a hand on Koshi's shoulder and tells him that they are going inside and face the principal, and then the bully and his parents, as she is sure that the bully's parents are likely to pressure the principal to have Koshi expelled.
"Are you ready, Koshi-kun?"
"Y-yeah."
"Be strong. Show that manliness you've shown yesterday…"
"Well…"
"Besides…I have a feeling that the bully's parents might use Atena-chan to make you lose your cool…"
"…"
"So try to keep a cool head."
"Okay."
As Mineru and Koshi went inside, Sutea and Kento glanced at each other and wondered what would happen next, and are dreading that the principal might not listen to reason, and that he might stick to his decision not to let Koshi continue at school, but Atena showed up and assured that Mineru will do what it takes to help Koshi.
However, Frey showed up and teases Atena again, causing the pink-haired girl to get flustered and denied the accusations though the cosplaying fanatic teasingly said otherwise.
"So…you really hope that Koshi-kun would be okay…"
"Of course!"
"Hee-hee…you sure like your knight in shining armor…"
"Wh-what are you…?"
"You really like Koshi-kun…"
"I-its not like that…!"
"Oh…?"
"Frey-senpai…!"
