I woke up from sleeping and instead of getting ready for school, I just laid there for awhile and just stared at the ceiling for a while.
I looked at the clock; 11:40, if this was a normal day I'd be freaking the hell out and rushing to get to school…
...but this really wasn't a normal day...
Well, I can't say that I didn't see this coming…
Context:
"So, tell me. Why was it necessary to go that far." My dad said sternly at he looked me seriously.
Both my Mother and my Father were called by the school letting them know that I was acting rough with a girl to the point where she cried.
While they do have cameras in place along with audio evidence of what actually happened, this really didn't matter since they saw a girl crying and took her side regardless of context.
I guess the status of holding a girls emotion over what they said still holds to this day, but at least both of us got the same amount of time for suspension…
I sighed as I gave him my response, "I wasn't very calm or in the right mind at that time and understand what I did wrong, but it still doesn't given that girl the right to talk down behind Sayori's back-"
"It doesn't matter if what she said wasn't right or not, you laid hands on a girl, shoved her near a locker and made her cry! You're lucky the school didn't expel you or have the other family file a lawsuit!" My dad said angrily.
He calmed himself down before talking to me again, "Look, I know how it feels to have other people talk down to an important friend, especially if said friend is not doing so well mentally. Yeah, we'd like to defend them for all they have and not have people talk down to them, but there are better ways to deal with it. Better, non-violent ways, to deal with it."
My Dad then stood up from sitting near my desk and headed towards my door, "I don't want you acting this when you become an adult and have your own family, there's just no good that will come from it. Go to sleep, I'll talk more about this tomorrow."
He left me with those words and left my room.
I laid down on my bed and checked the time, 10:19, a bit early, but fine I'll deal with this tomorrow…
Present:
I got up from my bed and headed downstairs.
It was the first Friday of the semester, and I'm spending it suspended for 4 days…
As I Sat down on the couch and sank into the cushions, I pulled out my phone and checked for any updates:
11:50
Friday, April 5th, 20XX
Missed Call(s): Sayori - (13)
Text Messages - Sayori (30)
Messenger: Sayori (11)
Email: 10% off computer parts...
Yeah….probably wasn't the best idea to leave my phone on silent…
Lunch is only another 30-40 minutes away so I might as well wait to call her until then, I don't need to distract her while she's doing something important.
For the next 30-40 minutes, I burned time by doing things I'd usually do in a weekend; Go brush my teeth, cook and eat some breakfast, be a lazy shit in front of the T.V up until 12:30.
Now that it was 12:30, or at least 12:39 since I almost forgot, I decided to call Sayori since now should be a good time.
I dialed the number and waited while it rang, after 2-3 minutes of ringing Sayori finally picked up.
"Hey Sayori, sorry I missed all your calls, was there something you-" I spoke casually until I was interrupted by a lot of shouting
"JUN! WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER MY CALLS!? HOW DID YOU GET SUSPENDED IN THE FIRST WEEK!? WHAT DID YOU DO?! DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I WAS WHEN I HEARD-" Sayori shouted angrily in the phone until I decided to hang up.
My ears were still ringing even when I hung up…
My phone then began to vibrate, I looked and saw that Sayori was calling.
I picked up, "Are you done shouting? Cause if not, I'mma hang up again."
There was a brief silence before I heard heavy breathing getting less heavy until there was an exhale, "Ok, I think so…" Sayori said calmly.
"Good, now listen up…" I said explaining the entire situation of what happened between me and Bitch.
"...and now I'm suspended from the school for about 4 days." I finished.
"..." The phone was silent until Sayori spoke in an apologetic voice, "Sorry Jun, but...Monika told me to put the phone on speaker from the very beginning, so she heard the entire story."
"...oh." Was all I said, somehow I felt like Monika would've known the story either way…
"Is that all you have to say for yourself Jun?" Monika said in a stern voice, she definitely didn't seem happy when she heard the story.
"Basically yeah. My dad is already pissed off enough from being called during work, Pissing you off wouldn't really affect me at all to be honest." I said as I laid on the couch flipping through channels.
"Oh really…." Monika said annoyed.
The doorbell soon rang…
Don't fucking tell me…
"Monika, I swear to god: If that was you who rang my doorbell, I'm gonna pelt you with some holy water…" I said to my phone as I cautiously walked over to the door.
"What? Why would I be at your front door? Just because I'm the principal's daughter doesn't mean I can skip anytime I want." Monika told me in a confused tone.
"...I'm gonna call you back…" was the last thing I said before hanging up the phone.
I looked through the peephole on the door and I couldn't believe what I saw outside my door…
...it was Bitch…
How the hell was she able to find out where I lived!?
I get that she looks up to Monika and all that, but did I piss her off too much that I made her go into Yandere mode for being looked down upon?
It looked like she was all alone. I didn't see her flock of bitches floating around and she doesn't seem too suspicious…
I grabbed the wooden bat in the coat closet just in case any fuckery would take place…
I open the door slightly, "Why are you here?" I asked.
She looked just as annoyed as I was, "I'm just here to talk to you." She said in an annoyed tone.
Boy, doesn't she remind me of someone…
"Alright, what do you want?" I said still cautious.
"I want to apologize…" She tried to say.
"I don't believe you." I couldn't help but cut her off.
She looked flustered for a moment before replying, "Wha-!? You haven't even heard what I had to say!"
"I know, but I can't help but not believe you when you say 'apologize' " I said while slowly trying to close the door.
Bitch then ran up to the door to try and prevent me from closing it.
"What kind...of person...do I look...like!" she said in between grunts from trying to pry the door open.
"The type of person...that probably...wouldn't...apologize!" I replied back in the same fashion.
"What...you think I'm some kind of...girl that would take advantage of people!?" She tried to ask.
"Obviously!" I replied back.
We continued doing this for another 5 minutes before I was able to close the door fully and lock it.
Bitch was pounding her fists hard on the door, "Are you seriously not gonna listen to me!?" She shouted from beyond the door.
"Yup!" I replied back…
I looked through the door peephole and saw her stomp around for a couple of minutes before she took a deep breath and left the yard, slamming the front gate shut.
About time…
I was just about to walk into the living room to call Sayori and the other back before the doorbell rang once again.
I drug my feet over to the door again and looked through the peephole only to Bitch back with what looks to be an older guy, who surprisingly looks very professional.
From the looks of it, Bitch seemed to look very intimidated from the older guy being right next to her.
I open the door and poked my head out, "Can I help you?" I asked.
"Why Hello there. My name is Iwatami Nakamura and I'm the stepfather of Rika here, do you mind if I talk to you one to one?" He said in a casual voice.
Part of me really didn't want to talk to him, but if he's the stepfather of Bitch here then that doesn't mean that he'll be acting like her right?
"Ok, sure" I said cautiously.
"Thank you. Rika, head to the station. Me and the boy will have a short chat." The stepfather said.
Surprisingly, Bitch accepted her step dad's request and left without a complaint.
The step dad watched her leave and when she was out of sight he drooped his shoulders and let out a tired sigh.
"Alright, let me get straight to the point, I don't have time to be wasting here." The stepfather said in as his casual voice changed into a bored and slightly snobbish voice.
"I will pay you 5000 yen ($50) weekly to be 'friends' with Rika. I don't care how far you guys go, as long as you have her out of the house for at least a couple of hours each day, you'll get your money. Capice?" He said while bringing out a fancy leather wallet.
Oh...he's this kind of guy
"I'll even forget everything you did to her if you keep her out of the house for a couple of hours, even if that slut deserve it in hindsight…" He continued as he started to count his bills.
Damn...now I'm not sure whether or not to feel bad for Bitch…
He finally got out the amount of bills out of his wallet and prepared to hand it to me, but I just closed the door to my house and walked away from him.
He seemed surprised when I did this, "Hey! where're you going? Aren't you gonna take the money?"
"I'm sorry sir, but I don't have time to be dealing with familial problems. Why don't you be an adult and deal with it yourself." I snarkily said as I tried to get back in my house.
The stepfather grabbed my left wrist tightly, "Hey, don't walk away when an adult is talking you little shit!" he said angrily trying to pull me towards him.
It's a good thing the door was close by since I was just able to get my wooden bat.
I grabbed the bat in the middle and pointed it at his chest, "You wanna fucking go, Bro? Do it, I fucking dare you!"
The stepfather, who I will now call Step-Douche if I ever meet him again, released my wrist and stepped back a couple of feet.
I pointed towards the small camera on the corner of the house's roof, "Try that shit one more time, and I'll drag your ass to court for assaulting a minor! I've got the evidence to support me, so get the fuck out of my property!" I shouted at him.
He left with a scowl and slammed the front gate.
The camera on the corner of my house hasn't worked for years, but at least it works for a good bluff.
I went back into my house I locked the door. Man, I thought Bitch was bad, her Step-Douche is just fucking Toxic…
I checked the time after putting the bat away and sinking back in my couch, 1:10, damn.
I made sure to Text Sayori apologizing for not being able to talk more since some 'problems' came up.
Surprisingly, she was able to text back and say that she's gonna come over today.
I asked about club, and she just responded that Monika gave her the go ahead to check up on me.
Apparently all of them were a bit worried after not getting a call back from my famous last words of, 'I'm going to call you back…'
I guess they assumed the worst and thought I was in danger, well for the most part I guess I can consider that I was…
I started to rub the spot where Step-Douche grabbed me, it was definitely sore and stung a bit, but I guess I can pay for my all of my college fees if he tries to come back…
For the rest of the time, I decided to head upstairs and maybe play some games on my PC, see if any of them can burn time…
2 and a half hours later…
"TEAMMATE, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!" I shouted through my mic.
I was currently playing Rainbow 6: Siege and one of my teammates Tk'd (team killed) me for the 3rd time.
"Hey, someone vote kick, he's fucking toxic!" I continued.
"Ooooh, vote kick, vote kick!" My toxic teammate mocked, "Shut the fuck up bro, it's casual. Stop being a fucking tryhard…"
"Bro, I'm just trying to play the goddamn game and have some fun! How the fuck am I a tryhard, you toxic tk'ing bitch! Bet you're a Copper 4!" (lowest player rank in ranked play, basically can't play cause they're really really trash) I replied back
"Wahhh, Waahh! Bro stop crying over the littlest shit! Play the game!" The toxic teammate said.
"Stop eating you're goddamn mic, I don't feel like going deaf yet." I said before choosing my operator.
The final round began and the moment we all loaded in, the toxic teammate threw down a nitro cell (a small C4), detonated it, and killed all 5 of us, himself included.
"Bro! Are you fucking kidding!?" "Fuck you man!" "F" some of my teammates shouted as they died.
The bold letters, "Choked Defeat" appeared in the middle of the screen as it showed the enemy team in their operators. We lost the Match 1-3.
"Man, Ubisoft better add a report button next season, the Toxic Behavior button doesn't do shit!" I said very bitter from the toxic asshole of a teammate.
"What the hell are you talking about? Ubisoft isn't gonna do anything..." One of my teammates chimed in.
"Yeah, you're probably right. They broke even more shit this season than they did all the others…" I said before leaving the lobby.
I took off my headset and stretched in my chair, It's been awhile since I played R6 but some of the interactions are all the same…
(Note: Conversations like that do exist in Rainbow 6, even if this is slightly exaggerated. It may be rare, but it definitely exists.)
I stood up and was about to head to head downstairs to get some food before realising that Sayori was on my bed reading a book...
...with Yuri on the side….
...and Monika next to Sayori….
...and even Pink-chan reading her mango (manga) far away from me…
I stood there was a while before finally being able to speak, and it went like this:
"How the fuck did you guys break in?" I asked.
Sayori held up a small key as she read her book.
Oh right...she knows where the emergency key is…
"Jun, you really have some anger issues you know? You definitely get a bit of a tempter when you play…" Monika said reading a book without looking away from it.
"Not my fault people are assholes…" I replied, I should've gotten that ace in the first round if the toxic asshole didn't join in…
"So why are you three here? I expected Sayori, but not you three. Besides how long have you been here?" I began to question.
"Hmmm...about half an hour…" Monika said, "But we were invited to come to your house and hang out for a bit from Sayori…"
I stared at Sayori at a moment, she tried to hide away from my gaze by putting a book in front of her face to block my view.
I sighed, "Oh boy, I'm so glad that you told me about this before coming over. How Thoughtful…" I said in a dull voice.
"Alright, Well: Welcome to my Room, a.k.a Detroit. It'll always stay this messy no matter how many times you clean it. Trust Me." I said before heading towards my door, "I'm gonna get a bag of chips, don't break my shit."
I left the room and headed into the kitchen downstairs.
You know, it's strange…
Usually a normal boy would be completely embarrassed to have a someone go into their room unannounced regardless of gender, but probably a lot more if it was a girl.
But as of right now, I don't really feel that feeling.
I don't have porno mags (because technology), my room is so much of a mess you can't tell which is which, and the drawings I've hung up (Well, I say drawings, but they're really just unfinished stuff) don't have any lewd stuff on it, so I guess this really isn't as big of deal as most people make it out to be.
As I headed upstairs with my bag of chips and 3 water bottles that I stole, I definitely heard a couple of thumps on the ground with some slightly loud voices.
I Stood next to my door and eavesdropped in on what they were shouting about.
"...Come on, he's a boy! You'd think that he'd have one around here somewhere…" one of the voices playfully said
"...I don't think we should be snooping around his room, we did come here unannounced, the least we can do is be respectful…" Another said, by the tone of it no doubt it was Yuri
"Right, like I care about his stuff…Where is it?" The same voice voice said.
I guess it's time for me to appear from the shadows.
"You can search as much as you want, but you won't find a thing." Another voice said, it sounded like Sayori, "Jun isn't the type of person to have a magazine around his room, he may be questionable at times, but he's still a good person at heart. I believe in him."
Sayori….
You're so pure hearted, you really need to dial down your expectations and view of me by a lot.
The Internet has already ruined me and many many others, there's no going back for us...
I opened the door, "Stop going through my stuff, you'll spring one of my traps…" I said as I laid a bag of chips on a small table in the middle of the room that had some of my old burnable note books on it.
I sat down near it and flip through a couple of them, some of them looked solid back when I started out and a couple of them….not so much…
Pink-Chan, who was looking through my closet and under my bed was searching for a certain item that wasn't in this room.
"Oh? Traps? I wonder what they might be guarding Huh?" She said mysteriously, continuing her search but much more enthusiastically.
Yuri looked a bit cautious and timid when she saw Pinky look more frantically, "Natsuki, you really should be looking, especially if Jun's right here…!"
"Oh, I don't mind Yuri. Let her Search…" I said casually.
Let her search and trigger it…
I looked over to where Pinky was and waited, she's already near it and that's left for her to do is….!
"Gahhhh!" A robotic screech followed by an evil laugh was let out as a plastic skull popped out from the closet with glowing red eyes.
Pinky let out a terrified yell, and I smiled evilly as I tried to hold in my laughter along with Yuri who was failing horribly.
Pinky, who was breathing heavily with a red face, faced me and grabbed my collar while trying to punch me.
"You…! You….! You…!" She said while breathing in furiously and angrily.
"I have nothing to say other than you deserved it…" I said while feeling the best feeling of Karma and Dickery.
Sayori couldn't help but giggle lightly at us, and Monika was surprisingly quiet this entire time.
Actually, come to think of it, where was Monika?
I looked around the room for a bit only to find Monika squatted down next to my CPU Tower (It's case) with a curious look.
"Pretty weird looking right?" I called over to her.
She seemed to have snapped back to reality and play it off, "Oh, no it's not that, It's just that I've never seen a computer look like this, it's pretty unique."
Compared to normal computer that you'd see in computer labs, libraries, and business offices, mine was completely different and, just like Monika said, Unique.
It was a steel framed computer with tempered glass on all sides excluding it's back where everything was plugged in (Corsair 570X White Edition.)
Modded with some semi-up to date and slight budget components like a Ryzen 5 1600, an X370 motherboard, a 1060 6gb Graphics card, 16gb of ram (2x 8gb sticks), 2tb of storage and soon to be 4tbs, and to top of all off a 550W power supply to power it all.
(In normal talk, a pretty dank computer that can run High to slight Ultra settings/graphics in some games.)
I stood back up and woke up my computer from it's sleep mode and made it light up completely almost like a christmas tree (Yes, I do like the RGB don't judge.)
"While I'd tell you everything about my computer and what's been done to it, to save you the confusion and time I'll just tell you that it can run games pretty well and look amazing while doing so." I told Monika as I typed in my password.
"Wow, must've cost a lot to buy all of it." She said while smiling slightly at the RGB effects.
"No, not really. It was only 180,000 yen ($1600 US) for everything here." I said casually while Monika gave me a wide eyed look.
"180,000!?" Monika said very surprised.
Oh right, Normies don't understand the us…
"Well it would've been at least 170,000 ($1500 US) right now if the computer parts economy wasn't fucked back when I originally bought it." I mentioned as I pulled up my email.
"What games do you even play that you need to spend 170K on?" Monika questioned.
"Any, and all of them." I replied, but she gave a look of confusion.
"Easiest way for me to explain this is that, when you get a PC to play on: Unless the game is an exclusive to a certain game system or company, you're bound to find it on a universal marketplace of sorts in the online gaming community to the point where it's basically becomes 2 game systems combined in one." I tried explaining.
"For example, You know Mario right? Kids love him and some adults grew up with him. Mario is owned by Nintendo, and all Nintendo games will only be on Nintendo Game systems like the DS or the newly released Switch." I explained even more.
"Oh. So it's like a restriction contract of sorts…" Monika said
"If that's how you see it then, that's good enough I guess…" I said before pulling up Spotify and playing some of my music.
(If you want an example of what Music play for "immersion", I'll just list out a couple of songs, I don't know their genre but it's definitely dank. If you've seen the anime K, then some of the music is very similar:
Emancipator - Lionheart or Nevergreen
Nujabes - Perfect Circle, Feather, Still talking to you (or literally anything he helped produced) (old School-ish hip-hop/Lo-fi/ Samurai Champloo music)
DJ Okawari - Bluebird Story, Luv Letter, Bounce.
Toe - Tremolo Delay
Cise Star - D.T.F.N (Hip-Hop like)
Marcus D - Greater Purpose, Kindred Spirit.)
I sat back on the table as I opened the bag of chips and flipped through my notebook.
"Oh! I completely forgot…" Monika said to herself, she went over to her school bag near the door.
"Since it's Friday, and it seems that no one else is gonna join the literature club…" Monika seemed a bit bitter as she said that, "Why don't we read out our poems!"
Oh shit, I forgot that was a thing….
Yuri, Sayori, and the Loli dug through their own bags and pulled out their own poems that they prepared for the week...
But the real question is, is do I still have the piece of paper with me…
I went over to my bed, picked up my bag and dug through it, trying to find the paper that had some kind of poem on it.
Surprisingly, I found it.
Unsurprisingly, it was at the bottom of my textbooks and completely crumpled up.
I made an effort to try and straighten it up on the edge of the table, but after trying for a minutes I gave up and accepted the paper as it is.
Everyone decided to take turns reading their own poems.
Yuri, who usually is quiet and timid, bravely wants to read hers out first being the complete opposite of her being normal.
And just like that, within the first line, I have absolutely no clue what she's saying because my smol pea brain cannot comprehend the big words that are coming from her mouth.
You know, I sort of feel really bad for Yuri, because she probably put a lot of thought into making her poem for her to read to us, and here I am, completely confused just nodding my head like I understand while being completely lost…
She finally finished her poem from what seems like a long time, and gives a slight smile from saying her poem.
It was pink chan's turn and compared to Yuri where she look eager to read it, Pinky looked like she was filled with confidence to the point where it almost looked cocky.
She read out her poem, and we listened. Compared to Yuri where everything she said I was like 'Yes…', pink chan was...well, let's just say that calling her a Loli was wayyy too fitting.
It was short (lol kek), simple, and well childish…
For a moment I thought that her poem would be sort of similar to a Madoka Magica theme song before all the shit would the fan, but no, it tried to be sort of dark but failed to do so since I couldn't take it seriously.
Sayori was up next, and to be honest I was half curious about what she'd write and half concerned.
This was an outlet for her depression, a minor one at that, so I really had hopes that it didn't sound like a suicide note or something so edgy you get cut just from reading it.
To my surprise, as Sayori read her poem, I was felt with some mixed feelings.
Her poem, although it was positive enough to feel good about it, had a lingering feeling of helplessness.
I'm glad it wasn't completely depressing, but it was real in a sense. There wasn't as much flowery words as Yuri's poem, and it wasn't as happy-go-lucky as Pinky's, but it felt like a good mix in between.
Monika was up next, and while I was here expecting a pretty polished poem, I got a lot more than I expected but not in a good way…
I felt… an emptiness of sorts when she read out her poem, it was real, it was helpless, and yet...it felt oddly neutral…
Now, I'm no expert of sorts in terms of Loneliness. I've literally gone an entire school year not socializing with people and not making friends, but I did this of my own volition with mo problems at all.
Monika on the other hand seems like it was forced, and that there was no choice for her to do anything about it.
...can't help but feel bad for her.
And now it was my turn, me and my half assed attempt of a poem that made in less than 20 minutes, completely unchanged from when I write it 3 days ago.
Well, here goes nothing…
Something... - April 2, 20XX
A blank page.
A blank page with nothing on it.
A blank page for anything,
A blank page for anyone.
A blank page for academic professionalism…
...or for unconditional bullshittery?
Nothing about this makes sense,
and I've got no clue what I'm writing.
So if you're looking for a poem,
you're in the wrong spot.
Should've realised that from the title, Genius…
I finally finished reading out my "poem" and was given a couple of weird looks from Pinky and Yuri, while Sayori while smiling brightly, and Monika was looking at me with an interested gaze.
It was now time to give our 2 cents on what we thought of each others work, starting with Yuri's poem of big words and confusion.
The very first thing to come out of anyone's mouth to give advice/criticism was pink chan, and she just straight up said that she didn't like it because it was "too complex" word wise.
She didn't stop there, trust me. She then started to criticize saying that the use of complex words was a cop out for wanting to sound more 'Unique' and 'Ambiguous'.
Things were started to get heated, and people were getting T R I G G E R E D but after a calm talk of respecc-ing people's work and not being a dick, things were slightly back to normal. There definitely was no blackmail or threats made to keep people on check, nope, none at all!
Next up was the Loli's turn, roles were reversed and now Yuri made some criticism on the wording of the poem "defeating the true meaning of what's being presented, and what's wanting to be felt", and other stuff that's too over the top for me to really care about.
Using too much simple words and meanings killed the supposed purpose the message behind loli's poem, a she needed to be more...mature...hehehe...
Oh boy, here's part 2….
Both of them were at it again and more blackm-, I mean, calm talks were given to calm them down.
Seriously, both of them probably shouldn't be next to each other in a room alone...it'll be Mortal Kombat in there…
Sayori's was up next, and to my surprise, there was almost no advice needed for her since the poem seemed to have a perfect mix of simple and elegance in the poem.
Same with Monika, except the poem raised a couple of questions and concerns from the 3 of them asking if she was getting overworked and stressed out from having to be the living embodiment of "perfection" within our school.
While the questions were raised in genuine concern, Monika assured them that she wasn't overworked or as stressed out as they think and waved off their question.
In her own words, she said that "I'm fine, while I would like some pressure to be taken off, it's nothing I can't handle!"
And now...it was my turn….
It didn't take the group a long time to say what they thought of it…
Crude, ill-worded, and a poem only I can write out.
Yuri told me that I should at least make some kind of an attempt to make a poem that doesn't sound like I'm insulting the reader for being an idiot.
Loli just grinned to herself and said that there was nothing to criticize since it wasn't a poem in the slightest. If there's no poem to criticize, then her words aren't needed.
Monika, compared to both Yuri and pinky, actually liked my poem even if it was half assed. The only request from her was that she wanted to 'polish' my style a bit more so it could sound like an actual poem that people can enjoy.
Sayori, had no complaints since it was good enough for her.
"...but still," Monika chuckled to herself, "I definitely didn't expect something like this."
"What were you expecting from me?" I asked
"In the beginning, I expected you to not have anything written down in the first place." Monika explained with a bright grin, "But after Sayori read your poem and said that it's almost a perfect explanation of your personality, I couldn't help but be really curious on what it might be."
"Needless to say, I'm quite surprised and actually enjoy what you wrote down even if you put little to no effort in it." Monika said
Well then, Bob I'll take unexpected reactions for 500, cause that really was unexpected.
I looked over at the clock and at times like these we'd usually leave the school since club has ended.
"You guys should probably head back, you might be able to catch the railways at this time if you hurry." I said as I stood up and stretched.
A couple of them also took a look at the clock and they agreed, "Oh yeah, you're right. I need to leave quickly, I live the opposite direction…" Monika said
By this time, the girls, with the exception of Sayori, got their stuff and started to head to the railways.
Since I was still under suspension, Monika gave Sayori the job to tell me what we'd be doing next on Monday.
And since I was under suspension, that wasn't a valid excuse for me to slack off on club activities.
Sayori was the last person to leave the house, she stood still outside for a while just looking at empty space.
"Sayori?" I called out
She seemed to have snapped out of her trance and face towards me with a gentle smile, "I'm really glad you joined the club." She said.
"I mean, I didn't really join from by my own choice, but if you want to believe and hold onto that, then by all means." I said sarcastically.
"Hehe, Sorry…" She said sheepishly remember the first day.
"But hey," I said trying to clear up her worries, "I guess it isn't as bad as I thought. It could do some good for me since the girls can somehow tolerate my behavior to an extent, so that in itself is almost a miracle."
'Come on, You're not that bad!" She teased
Sigh...you're still too pure Sayori…
I gently patted Sayori's head, one of these days...you're gonna realise how much of a deadbeat I am…
"Hmm!" Sayori pouted
"You're making fun of me aren't you!" She said angrily
"What? No, don't be ridiculous..." I said teasingly
She soon stomped off to her house next door.
Even if I don't like her in terms of a relationship, Sayori is still my good friend…
I then went back into the house and made some preparations for tomorrow…

Reviews
March 17th, ZombieSlayers:Yes, this MC is more bootleg than your average MC. He will throw hands because the hands are rated E for Everyone.
March 22nd, DxHologram: Yeah, the canon DDLC-verse is really fucked, but I'm only gonna add stuff from the canon if it makes for good content and/or get inspired from the canon to make something better. Ex: Sayori's depression in this story, it exists and with a suicide attempt made but still keeping with realistic-ish dialogue.
