Wake up! (Wake up.)
Grab my toothbrush and put a schoolboy outfit!
Eat some eggs and repeat this same layout!
I don't know where this going! (Where is this going?)
Ok, I'm just gonna stop now... (Just stop.)
I know this doesn't really rhyme but at least it's some kind of deviation towards my already dull morning routine.
I know it's insane hoping for some kind of event to happen to make something different…
Oh wait! I'm not hoping for that. Because so far anything I try to hope for will just take it the wrong way and ruin my day so...yeah…
Exiting out of my house in a somewhat sluggish manner, I sort of dreaded going to school since not only do we have to pass out the flyers, but Me and Sayori get to get mobbed by the going home people and probably get trampled to death.
As I walked to school, I couldn't help but notice Sayori not rushing towards me with some kind of wheat based food product in her mouth.
I soon felt my phone Vibrate.
Looks like I got a text message from...Sayori?
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Sayori:
-Won't be coming to school Today,
caught a cold.
-Sorry.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Are you fucking kidding me?
Now I have to get mobbed by the going home group all by myself?!
I'm not trying to die early just yet dammit!
At least wait until I'm in my mid 40's!
Hold on! This gives me an idea!
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Sayori:
-Won't be coming to school Today,
caught a cold.
-Sorry.
Me:
-Ah! That's a shame!
-Looks like I'll have to stay back
and nurse you back to health!
Sayori:
-You're going to school.
-I've already Texted Monika.
She'll have someone else fill in for me.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Dammit...at least I tried.
Oh well. Anyways, I can already tell that whoever Monika fills in I'm just not gonna like them to be honest.
Yuri is too passive and is really annoying because of it.
Pink-chan is a just a bitch in general, she can just go fuck herself.
Monika...I oddly want a restraining order against her for some reason…
Bitch isn't too bad, but I still don't have a good enough of an opinion of her after all her shit talk before.
Ugghhh!
What the fuck ever, let's just get this over with…
My walk towards the school somewhat became a boring one since the main cinnamon bun isn't anywhere to be seen to bring up something to talk about.
Within a solid 15 minute, I reached the school gates and found Monika by herself waiting for someone...sadly it had to be me.
"Good Morning Jun." Monika said brightly.
"Morning." I said while yawning.
"You know it's a bit rude to yawn randomly in front of others first thing in the morning. It makes for a bad first impression." Monika said trying to scold me.
"Right well, when it comes to me, no first impressions are needed. Taking a good look at my face and how I present myself is all you need to know me." I said trying to correct Monika.
"Aw...Don't you have such a low self esteem? I wonder if I can fix that." Monika said with a fake smile and a monotone voice.
"Hahaha! Funny. But you should know that there is no such thing as low self esteem if you have no self esteem to begin with." I said with my own fake smile and attitude.
Damn...that's a good line, I should put that on a T-shirt…
Monika soon dropped her fake smile and attitude as she exhaled deeply, "Why is always a struggle for you to act normal…."
"But I am acting normal." I said oh so innocently.
"Yeah...and that's the sad part about you." Monika said as she reformed her fake smile and attitude, "Aside from that matter, I did get the text from Sayori asking for a replacement. I might be able to get someone to do the front doors with you, but it's not guaranteed."
Monika then gave me a sly smile and look, "You know, If you want, I could set you up with one of the girls….Is there anyone in the club you prefer?" she said teasingly.
"To be completely honest, No, aside from Sayori, I hate them all just about the same." I said without much restraint.
"Use 'Dislike', Hate is such a strong word. Besides, does that include me as well?" she said teasingly.
I gave Monika a fake smile as I gave a general look of obviousness.
I mean come on! She should already know this since she's No. 1 on the list for blackmailing me!
Twice!
For some odd reason, I feel like I could see a blood vein pop from Monika forehead, "I see then. We'll discuss this more during lunch." She said while it looked like she was straining herself.
Man I'm such a bastard...although, it is too much fun at times…
Monika left with grace as she turned around and headed to her class.
One of these fucking days...I swear she's gonna knock the literal sense into me because of my fucking mouth...Mark my words!
Much like most of the students still hanging around the front gates, I followed after them as they filed into the school while heading to class.
Needless to say, the school day isn't as interesting as a lot of people think…
...but then again, no really tells themselves, "Boy was class really interesting! I got to learn all sorts of things that I won't really be needing the moment I apply for a real job!"
If they do, then they're a fucking dweeb.
And No, I don't mean Nerds since they actually have some technical skills that could be used for future jobs.
I mean actual dweebs who take studying too seriously to the point where getting high test scores becomes their lifeline/bragging rights.
Those people can fuck right off.
Alright well, that was a nice short story based around me back in elementary school, let's see what we have to do High School wise…
First couple of classes weren't special or out of the ordinary, compared to what Manga would glorify.
Well...biology was a bit interesting today though, not because of what was taught mainly because I don't pay attention to it most times, but because our teacher Ms. Mizumi couldn't calm down about the situation from yesterday.
For most of the time she taught, she kept sneaking glances at me.
Now I'd rather not get into a teacher/student relationship with her because not only would she probably get caught within the first week, but Mr. Fujiwara would probably punch me so hard it would actually cause amnesia.
That little fantasy aside, I basically had to write down, "Calm down and teach" on my notebook and flip it up to her just for her to stop being all jittery.
Aside from that, nothing interesting happened.
But it's not like anything interesting would've happened to begin with, I mean this is school, Unless it's a fight, an argument, or a confession, nothing really counts as entertainment to these people…
But I don't blame them, if someone yelled 'Worldstar' in the hallway, I'd have some kind of hope up to see someone getting their shit kicked in.
But instead of hoping for a worldstar moment, I'd rather go to my usual spot and eat some leftovers 'cause starvation isn't fun.
I grabbed my bag that was leaning against my desk and was going to head out.
No one bothered to look at who was leaving since they're busy with their own stuff whether it be a conversation or their actual lunch.
As I was about to open the door, I nearly ran into some random classmate as they rushed through the door, knocking my shit down.
The random dude just gave a small wave with a signature 'My bad!' response as he didn't try to help me.
Thanks asshole, I'll make sure to trip you down the stair-
Nah...too edgy...way too edgy….
I let go of the sudden hatred and thirst for violence as I got on my knees and started to pick my shit up from the ground.
Surprisingly, I somehow got some help with my shit also getting picked up.
I looked up to see Bitch helping me.
"What's the catch?" I asked her.
She looked at me in confusion, "Catch? What catch?" she asked
"For helping me. I know you're not nice enough to so this of your own free will." I said normally as I continued to pick my shit up.
Bitch just looked at me with a bland face and smile as she dropped my shit on the floor that she just picked up.
"Thanks, those aren't important to me after all you know? I'll just waste more time picking up my stuff. Thanks Bitch…" I grumbled loud enough for her to hear.
"Of course! you're welcome...Jackass…" She said all innocently
By the time I finally picked up all my stuff, I started making my way to the Roof.
"Where are you going? The guys bathroom is the other way." She told me
Wait...Bathroom? Why?
"Why are you telling me to go to the bathroom? I wasn't going there to begin with." I asked her, seriously though, why the bath…
Ohhh...I get it.
"Aren't loners supposed to go eat in the bathrooms since they-" Bitch was trying to explain her joke but I just cut her off.
"Yeah, yeah. I just got it, people who don't have friends eat in the bathroom. I just got the joke." I said, but redirected the joke to her, "...But going by that logic, something tells me that you've done the same thing since you don't have anymore friends."
Bitch looked a bit pissed as I told her that, but hey! Karma you know!
"Wow….attacking me while I'm still down. What a gentleman." she said with a dull tone.
"You started it. What goes around, comes around." I said as I opened the door that lead to the roof.
Bitch looked at me confused once again, "Hey, you know the Roof is closed off, you know? Students aren't allowed to go up there." She said trying to warn me.
"It's not cheating if you don't get caught. And there aren't any students up here if there aren't any students to be seen." I told her as I walked up the stairs and opened the door to the rooftop.
"Ugh...that mindset will get you in trouble one day…" she said as she followed me outside.
"Yeah, I know. But then again, it's already been a year so I must be doing something right, right?" I asked her as I sat down near the edge and took out my leftov...ers...
Oh...great…
It looks like my lunchbox got busted opened when that asshole bumped into me...and just about half my lunch got dumped in my bag…
Bitch looked at me with some interest as she also took a look inside my bag, "Oooo. Tough luck." she said, "If you want you could...what…!?"
She looked at me in horror and slight disgust as she saw me scrape off the rice off the inside of my bag and eat it. Same with the ground beef.
"Dude! That's your bag! Don't you know how much bacteria and germs there are in it?!" She said as she started to gag.
"Pro tip: Us guys don't care about a lot of things when it comes to food. If it's in our bag spilled, as long as there's nothing severely hazardous or seriously disgusting, we'll eat it." I explained men culture to bitch.
She didn't say anything as she continued to watch me eat from inside my bag and soon into my lunchbox.
"You guys are savages, I swear…" She said as she put her lunch away, "I think I've lost my appetite…"
I finished my lunch as drunk my water bottle and decided to lean back onto the fence that prevented me from falling off the roof, "So," I started off, "Why did you come to my classroom and follow me out?" I asked her.
"Hmm? Oh that. Monika spoke to me earlier and told me to tell you that we had to work together to do the flyer thing for the front gates." She said as she on her phone boredly.
"Of course she would…" I said as I did the same thing.
We sat on the roof edge for a couple of minutes looking through our phones as lunchtime was going on.
"Hey," Bitch spoke up, "Do you really think people will join the club from the flyers?"
"No, not a chance to be honest." I told her, "I don't know why Monika is dead set on having more members for the Literature Club. No offense to her, but I think her hopes are too high."
"Yeah, this is a club where 80% of it are girls that one could consider cute, but aside from that, There's not a lot of things about the Literature Club one could consider 'Fun'." I continued.
"I mean even I at some point will quit, same with you." I said.
Bitch looked a bit surprised when she heard me say that, "What do you mean same with me?" she asked.
"Come on, let's face it: You and I have no actual interest in the Literature Club for its actual purpose; You just wanted to make some actual friends to replace the fake ones step-douche bought you, and I was blackmailed into joining. Tell me, are you really interested in things like poem making and literary analysis'?" I asked her seriously.
She thought about it for a minute and tried to give a proper answer before having a guilty face one, "Exactly, no one in this school probably likes it either. That's why I'll give this club a 2 month trial before I leave. Monika can't exactly call me out for leaving early if I give it a 'fair' chance, can't she?" I said as I checked the time, 5 minutes before lunch ends.
I grabbed my bag, stood up, and stretched.
Bitch stood up as well and headed towards the door with me.
"I recommend you leave in a month or two too.." I said before we left, "There isn't much in there for people like us, and even less for you. Just save yourself some time and effort."
Bitch didn't say anything as we headed back downstairs, but did give me some kind of glare before stomping off, "Jackass…" me mumbled.
I'm just stating the obvious.
It's not like what I'm doing or saying is wrong.
Rest of the school day went on with nothing interesting going on.
Well aside from Mr. Fujiwara bullying me at the end of History class like he does everyday, but other than that nothing really.
As Mr. Fujiwara finally stopped bullying me, Monika came up to me and wanted to talk in private.
She pulled me towards one of the corners of the classroom, "Hey, did something happen between you and Rika? She seemed a bit pissed off when in one of our classes." Monika asked me with her arms folded.
"And You're staring me down because you think it might be my fault?" I asked her.
"Well with an attitude like yours, you never know, It could be." Monika said not looking impressed.
I sighed a bit, I mean she isn't wrong in hindsight, most of the problems she has to deal with is usually my fault to begin with.
"We just had a little chat about the Literature Club. Let her cool down for the weekend, she'll either go back to normal or continue to hate me, I don't have a preference." I told Monika.
She still didn't look impressed as I told her my reason, but nonetheless, she gave me the early leave pass and the flyers.
She walked off without another word as she headed to her own homeroom.
A couple of people in the classroom took a small glance at me before looking away and snickering.
"Oof, what'd you think he do?" "Bro, did he just get dumped?" "Pretty sad getting told off by Monika personally…"
Of course...people and their stupid assumptions…
I sat at a desk up front and away from all the students. I tried to put my head down and ignore the comments being made but my consciousness was distracted from a couple of vibrations coming from my phone.
Oh...it's Sayori…
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Sayori:
-You're going to school.
-I've already Texted Monika.
She'll have someone else fill in for me.
-- -- --
Sayori:
-Hey, I'm bored.
-Please talk to me
:p
Me:
-Right when I was
about to sleep.
-Thanks.
Sayori:
-You're welcome.
-Who did Monika
replace me with?
Me:
-That one blond girl. I don't
remember her name though.
Sayori:
-You mean Rika?
Me:
-Yeah her.
Sayori:
-BE NICE TO HER
Me:
-Sure.
Sayori:
-I'm serious, her only
friends are the
Literature Club members.
-I don't want her to have
a bad impression.
Me:
-Too late for me though,
you guys are still good.
Sayori:
*Angry cinnamon bun noises*
Me:
-What?
Sayori:
-Nothing.
-Good luck on the flyers.
Me:
-Thanks.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
I checked the time on my phone, there was another 4 minutes before I was allowed to get out of class.
I was just about to ask Mr. Fujiwara and see if I could leave a bit earlier only to see that he wasn't even in the class for the past 10-15 minutes.
I left the class without anyone batting an eye or even caring and headed to the front gates about 4 minutes early.
I waited for the rest of the couple minutes as Bitch got here on time.
Bitch didn't take the time to look at me or greet me when she got here, all she did was pull out the flyers from her bag as kept her distance while we both waited for the bell to ring.
R~iiiing
I gulped a bit of saliva as I mentally prepared myself to get mobbed by the students going home.
In a matter of minutes Students began to pour out of the doors and head straight for us.
"Would you like to-" and "Would you like-" were the only things that were coming out of my mouth as I tried to stop students and hand out the flyers.
Some students actually noticed me and declined respectfully, while the rest just ignored me and went off in their own direction.
Same thing was happening to Bitch except a lot worse since she wasn't getting a chance to speak up.
She'd almost be as bad as Yuri if Yuri was actually out here…
"Would you like to join the Literature Club!?"
I heard Bitch say loudly.
"Please join the Literature Club!"
I looked over and saw her look a bit more determined to pass out the flyers.
People were actually starting to take notice of her as people actually looked at her and paid attention to her for a moment before losing interest.
Hmm. Not Bad, I guess Yuri can keep her title of being the annoying passive aggressive one.
This continued on for another hour before the crowd began to die down.
As the crowd died down, less and less people started to come out of the school, and so far I still have my 10 flyers in my hand that I started out with in the beginning…
I sighed deeply as I stretched my arms, back, and neck. It's almost over...about time…
The people who were coming out of the school as of right now were now the assholes, douchebags, and friendless losers.
I looked over to Bitch again and saw her a bit sweaty while looking exhausted.
I walked up to Bitch as I rolled up my stack of flyers and tapped it on her head, "Hey, you look like your about to pass out, take a break." I told her
Bitch looked away while having some kind of attitude, "Why do you care so much?" she said bitterly.
"I don't. But Monika will get on my case if she finds out you passed out from exhaustion. I don't care if you pass out on your own, but I will care if it's on my time and my watch." I told her sternly
"Let's just call it a day today. The type of people that are about to come out aren't the kind of people Monika would want in her club." I said as I held my hand out.
Bitch hesitated as she held the flyers tightly, "I'm...still gonna try!" She said boldly, "Even if you don't care for the club, I want to actually try! Monika and the others gave me a chance to be theirs and I don't want to disappoint them."
She then turned around and walked away from me, "I'll keep trying and do this myself if I have to. You can go home for all I care, it's not like you want to help me for your own reasons, you're just doing club activities…"
Fine, whatever you say.
I sighed to myself and went back to school to give Monika the rest of the flyers.
As I walked to the club room, it was strangely quiet enough to hear my footsteps on the hallways.
There were no students in the classrooms, most of the classrooms had their lights off and doors locked with the exception of a select few that have other clubs going on, and the only person who would actually be around would be the janitors.
It almost felt out of place for a school.
My thoughts were interrupted as my phone began to ring.
I pulled out my phone and….Hideki?
I accepted the call, "Hey, you almost never call me. What's the deal?" I said.
"Oh boo hoo, get ready in 15 minutes, I'm gonna pick you up. We gotta go grocery shopping, Mom and Dad are gonna come home later than usual." he said
"Alright fine. Let me do some club stuff first, I'll be out soon." I said
"K." He said as he hung up.
Grocery shopping huh…
I finally got the club room and opened the door, somehow no one was here yet, but I did see what might be Monika's bag left near the front desk.
I walked up, left the flyers on the table, and was about to leave before Monika herself showed up.
"Oh, Jun." She said surprised to see me, "I was just about to go over to the front doors and call off the flyers, Why are you here?" She asked me.
"Oh, I was just gonna leave the rest of the flyers with you since I have to leave early." I said pointing over to the same untouched stack.
Monika took a glance over and sighed, "No luck over at the front doors too, huh?"
"Too? You mean you and Yuri got no one in the Library?" I asked her.
I honestly thought for sure that they'd get at least 2 people from there.
"No, not really. Most of the students over at the Library are either too shy to join or already have a club they're in. I don't know about Natsuki though, haven't heard from her yet..." Monika said as she took a seat near her bag.
"Aside from me, how was it at your end?" She asked me.
"Well, at least 6-9 different students actually paid attention enough to reject me. Wanna guess how many didn't care?" I said as I looked out the window.
"Nope, I already know how many. How about Rika? How did she do?" She asked again.
"She's still out there trying to get people to join, don't know why she's so determined though." I said as I partly lied.
I soon heard a certain sound of a certain cars exhaust rev up from the distance.
"Well, that's my cue to leave. Looks like my brother's here." I said as I headed towards the door.
"Right then, I'll see you Monday then." Monika said as she started to put the flyers in her bag.
I walked out of the classroom and headed towards the front doors.
As I was walking to the front doors, I heard some footsteps behind me.
"You know you don't have to follow me out. Aren't you gonna talk to Pink-chan about her flyers?" I said as I looked back and saw Monika following me with a smug smile, "What? I'm a bit curious on what your older brother looks like. Besides Natsuki can just text me later."
"We're almost twins but not really, there you know what he looks like." I said as I walked faster.
"Hmmm...The image is still a bit fuzzy…." Monika exaggerated as she tried to think hard.
As we finally got to the front doors, in front of the Gates on the street was an all White Hatchback car with pop up headlights. Inside the car was my Brother revving his engine.
Because Hideki is a car nerd and enthusiast he basically modded his car spending most his work money to personalize it.
And because he has some kind of custom exhaust on it, it makes all sorts of loud revving and popping noises, getting the attention of everyone who can hear it.
But now wasn't the time that we paid attention to the car because Bitch was surrounded by her bought friends.
Monika sighed to herself as she walked towards the group.
One of the groupees seemed to have heard footsteps behind them and told the group.
The group looked behind them and walked away from Bitch as they stepped on some of the flyers that were on the ground.
Bitch looked like she was about to break down, but Monika came to the rescue as she gave her a talk.
After a while of them talking, Bitch didn't look like she was going to cry anymore and started to pick up some of the flyers on the ground with Monika.
Bitch handed the flyers to her despite being dirty and stepped on and left in a slight hurry.
Hideki finally stopped revving his car as he unlocked the door and let me in, it seems that he was watching the whole thing go down.
"So this is you brother. I'm sorry you had to see all that happen out in front." Monika said behind me, becoming a literal Houdini and popping up out of nowhere.
Hideki tilted his head and looked at Monika strangely, "Oh it's alright...Uh...and you are…?"
Monika gave her signature smile as she introduced herself, "Hi, my name is Monika Ishida. I'm Jun's club president. Did you know that he's a bastard sometimes?"
Hideki laughed a bit as he heard that, "Yeah, pretty much!"
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up….
"That's all I wanted to say, I just wanted to meet Jun's brother. I'll see you Monday Jun. Have a good weekend!" Monika said innocently.
"Wow, she's really cute.You should take her and stop being so lonely Jun." Hideki said as he joked with me.
"Haha, very funny. I don't want anything to do with her." I told him as I lid back in my seat.
"What with you? She seemed nice." He told me.
That's what you think…
"But who was that other girl? It looked like she got bullied by some bitches." He asked.
"Just another one of the members from club. Despite being bitches, those were her old friends." I said as I rested my arm on the window.
"Really? What happened?" he asked again.
"She found out her friends were being paid by her stepdad to be her friends. She joined our club because she wanted actual friends instead of fake ones." I said.
"Things like that can happen? Sounds so fake…" he questioned.
"Ya I know…" I answered.
We spent the rest of the trip in silence as we headed to the store.
Aside from club, she really has no friends does she?

Sorry for the slightly short chapter, I tried my best to drag things out and put more stuff in but I guess there's a limit to what I can add in before it starts to hurt the chapter flow.
Now….I don't want to go too much into detail and bring in too much drama...but I honestly want to know….
How much of your guys' childhoods are being broken? Specifically towards….Dragon Ball Z…
If you know, then you know.
If you don't, then it's best if you don't know, because there's no going back once you do know…
I know my childhood's been done for, for the past 5-6 months.
Anyways, onto the reviews.
Edit: I know flyers are spelled like fliers, I don't care. Leave me alone.
- Hanz Gewhwr:
YOU ARE THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE
Naw, just kidding.
Though I am surprised, I honestly didn't expect this. Not sure if anyone else supports the shipping of Jun and Bitch.
- David Goyena:
I recommend you Watch the Anime if you haven't already.
It's one of the very few animes that really gets my interest.
I heard that it's getting a third season next year, and that just might be the final season.
- Dxhologram:
That's where I got my inspiration for Bitch from.
I wanted to have some kind of Character to hate just to have for plot, but because I made bitch want to redeem herself, I'm not sure how long Bitch is gonna stay Bitch.
Her name is Rika btw.
- Guest that didn't leave a name so I'll call you Sheen:
Story takes place in April.
Meme died 5 months ago as of right now.
5 months ago was April.
Author has big pp energy.
- AutisticAnglophile, wow what a name…
Jun's give a shit factor will continue to sink lower.
I don't know how long, but it will reach a point where it becomes too much.
At that point, the chapter will be fun to write out.
Besides, we don't floss over people anymore, we do 'Take the L' with T-posing for maximum Dominance.
Also, thanks for reading.
