Ryusei Pov
I see a beautiful young woman with light pink hair and beautiful blue eyes, she would be the type of person who does not go unnoticed for her beauty but what catches my attention is not just her beauty but that she is extremely familiar.
Ryusei: It's you Honami.
She soon makes a happy and smiling expression.
Honami: You remember me Ryu-chan.
I soon reveal a bright smile and open my arms with the intention of hugging her and she realized that and then threw herself with everything on top of me with a strong hug and when she wraps her arms around my neck and I hug her with so much joy that I end up spinning her with happiness while continuing to hug her.
Ryusei: Honami! I'm very happy to see you here!
She keeps smiling brightly and says
Honami: Me too.
Ryusei: But how did you know I was studying here too? I doubt that we met by pure coincidence.
Honami: By chance, yesterday I ran into maki-san, I recognized her from afar and I was surprised to see her here, she took a while to recognize me saying that I've changed a lot.
It's true, honami has changed a lot since the last time I saw her in person, if she hadn't called me ryu-chan it would certainly take me a while to recognize her.
Honami: We talked for a long time until she said that you are also studying here, imagine my surprise to hear that from her.
Honami is my childhood friend, we went to the same school and class together for a few years before my family moved to another city, the two of us were close together we knew each other's families and even though I moved we kept in touch from a distance talking through the Internet.
Ryusei: It's been four years since we've seen each other in person, how about we go somewhere and talk.
Honami: How about we go to the pallet.
Ryusei: Huh? pallet?
Honami: Hahaha, ryu-chan you're still the same as always, with your head in the moon world.
Truth be told after class I don't go out much, either I stay in my room watching series and movies or when I go out I stay somewhere specific to read a book.
After walking for a while, we arrived at the pallet... and I didn't expect it to be full of students here, most of them girls, I see an empty place and I point to the two of us to sit there.
Honami: So you want what?
Ryusei: Any drink is fine with me.
Honami: I'll choose a drink that I think you'll like.
While she went to choose the drinks while I was waiting at the table, she soon arrived and gave me the drink and I didn't waste time drinking it to taste it... and it's delicious.
Ryusei: This drink is delicious, what exactly did you order for me?
She smiles and says.
Honami: Hehehe, I knew you would like it. I ordered you a Choco Chip Frappuccino.
Ryusei: Yeah I really liked it, but now changing the subject what class were you placed in honami?
Honami: I was placed in class B.
Ryusei: And how is your class? Are you enjoying being in it?
Honami: Everyone is very nice and kind there in our class, I'm really enjoying being in my class and I'm friends with everyone in class B.
She says Cheerful and soon I smile too.
Ryusei: Well, that sort of thing is your thing! You always found it easy to talk to people and make friends with them.
One of the things I always admired about her was that she was always easy to socialize with people, which I didn't have before meeting honami but after meeting her and spending a lot of time with her, my social skills have improved a lot.
Honami: And you're in class D aren't you.
Ryusei: Yes, I'm from Class D.
Honami: How is your class? are you enjoying being there?
I give a nervous smile.
Ryusei: Let's say class D has strange people and other people who are intriguing but overall I don't have any problems with my class.
Honami: I understand but now that we're studying in the same school, I wish we were in the same school because the students stayed in the same class until graduation.
Ryusei: Yeah, I'd also like for the two of us to be in the same class.
Ryusei: But let's put that aside, let's talk and enjoy now that we're studying at the same school.
I say smiling at her.
Honami: Yes, you're right.
We stayed talking until the end of the afternoon remembering the past and also told what we did in the last 4 years, then we went back to the dorm together and we exchanged contacts and then we separated and we each went to our room.
Ryusei Pov
"Hahahaha! You're really funny, man!"
During 2nd period math class, Ike was talking loudly with yamauchi, these two goofballs along with sudou from the day of the ceremony until now have been known as the idiot trio.
"Hey hey, do you want to go sing some karaoke"
"Yes let's go"
Nearby, a group of girls are making after-school plans.
As I continued writing the lesson that was on the board I kept thinking, how patient sensei is to put up with people talking during her class and she doesn't do anything and worse there are people who arrive a long time after the class starts and she doesn't even relearn the student.
Could it be that she doesn't do anything because depending on the student's behavior, she deducts from the student's grade? or maybe it will be deducted from the points we will earn at the beginning of the month? But how would you know that she behaved and followed the rules and who didn't?
Is that what the camera at the back of the classroom is for?
But suddenly I leave my thoughts when I feel my cell phone vibrate, there must have been a message, it's probably from the group that Ike created because of the contacts I have, only them I'm sure they would touch the cell phone during class time.
"Looks like your friends are texting you, nogami-kun"
The one who said that was horikita who was writing down what was on the board without looking at me.
Ryusei: It's supposed to be them, but they'll wait for class to end so I can answer since I don't touch my phone during class.
Horikita: I see.
Horikita just said that and didn't say anything else.
As time went by now she was in the third period, chiyabashira-sensei's history class she entered after the bell rang signaling the start of the class and even entering the room the behavior of the students did not change.
Chiyabashira: Everyone, be quiet today's class will be more serious.
"What do you mean sae-chan sensei?"
How daring to nickname a teacher even though she didn't seem to mind.
Chiyabashira: It's the end of the month, let's do a little test. pass it back.
She distributed the papers among the rows and coming up to me, I saw that the test had several questions from each of the five main topics.
"Eh I didn't hear anything, I don't want to take it."
Chiyabashira: Calm down. This test is for future reference only. It will not be reflected on your report card. There is no risk, so feel free. However cheating is naturally prohibited.
Huh? That's weird? Usually test scores are reflected on our independent test report card but then why is that? Well, whether it's an important test or not, I don't think we should take this test lightly, mainly to find out what the academic level of this school is.
The test had 20 questions, 4 for topics and worth 5 points for each question.
A while after the test starts*
Well, I had already finished the test and I have to admit that the questions were easy, I didn't have any difficulties with them, although the last three questions were at a higher difficulty level than the others.
But while I had finished there were many students still doing, Chiyabashira-sensei was monitoring the students as she walked around the classroom.
And so she continued until the bell rang.
"Hey if you tell me honestly, I'll forgive you ok?"
"What do you mean by honestly?"
After finishing lunch, I was with ayanokouji and the idiot trio in the hallway talking and ike suddenly started saying something to ayanokouji.
Ike: We're friends, right? Friends who stayed together for the next 3 years?
Ayanokouji: Uh...yeah, that's right but...
Ayanokouji seems to be getting confused and nervous at what point ike wants to get to.
Ike: So... You're going to tell us when you get a girlfriend right?
Huh, why is he talking about this with ayanokouji.
Ike: You're dating Horikita, aren't you? We won't forgive you if you leave us behind.
I almost laughed at this question he asked, where did he laugh at this conclusion?
Ayanokouji: Ha?
Even the ayanokouji was surprised by the question.
Ayanokouji: Stupid, we're not dating. Not even a little. Serious.
Ike: Oh that's right.
Ike turns his head in my direction.
Ike: And you nogami are dating horikita?
Ryusei: But of course not, why would you ask me that question?
Ike: It's because there are people who think that you or ayanokouji are dating horikita.
Ryusei: Ha, just why are we the only ones who talk to her?
I ask and Ike nods in confirmation.
Ryusei: But there's nothing between us. And also horikita doesn't seem to be interested in dating.
Ike: I don't know about that. We never got a chance to talk anyway. If it weren't for kushida, we might not even know her name. she has no presence, and she doesn't say anything.
Our! Stopping to think how many people know Horikita's name?
Ayanokouji: You wouldn't even know her name? this is horrible.
Ike: So, you know all your classmates' names, ayanokouji?
When ike said that, ayanokouji was thoughtful, Well I remember the names of most of our classmates, not all but I know the names of many people.
Ike: Her face is pretty, isn't it? that's why we noticed her.
Honestly, that's the only way for them to notice someone, although they're right that horikita is pretty.
Sudou: She has a tough personality though. I don't like girls like her.
Ike: Yeah, her personality is...how should I say arrogant? I would like to date someone with whom I can have a good conversation. Of course, she needs to be cute, someone like kushida-chan.
Again he wants to talk about kushida! and yamauchi agreed with him.
Ryusei: My god you guys are really mesmerized by kushida.
with that they look at me
Yamauchi: Don't tell me you weren't mesmerized by kushida-chan's beauty.
Ryusei: She's pretty, there's no denying it, but I'm drooling over her like the two of you and I'm not interested in her either.
Ike: Oh really? so what would be your type of girl? nogami.
Then the four start looking at me waiting for the answer and I can only sigh because they won't leave me alone if I don't answer.
Ryusei: what attracts me most in a woman is not her beauty or cuteness but her personality, I like women with strong personality.
Ike: That's how I put it...weird but does any girl in our class even come close to being the type of girl you're attracted to.
Ryusei: Horikita sure makes the type of girl I'm attracted to.
Ike: Ahh, so that means you like horikita, so you like cool girls with pretty faces, right?
Ryusei: That's why girls consider you an idiot.
Ike: Huh?
I sigh and say something to get out of this situation.
Ryusei: Enough about my preferences, let me ask is hirata dating karuizawa?
I asked trying to change the subject.
Yamauchi: Oh right. The other day, the two were holding hands.
Ike: Damn, these two are actually dating. walking with shoulders touching.
Then these two started having their dreams and perverted thoughts again, seriously I know that we teenagers are at the age of being interested in these things but these two exaggerate beyond belief.
Yamauchi: Buy me a cocoa.
Yamauchi said to ayanokouji
Ayanokouji: Don't ask that of me. Buy it yourself.
Yamauchi: No, I used up almost all of my points. I have about 2000 points left.
Ryusei: How did you spend over 90,000 points in three weeks?!
I asked in disbelief as ayanokouji also seemed to be surprised by what he said.
Yamauchi: That's because I bought what I wanted. here look, isn't it great?
Yamauchi showed a portable video game.
Yamauchi: I went to buy this with ike. It's a psvita. It's amazing that the school also sells this.
Ayanokouji: And how much did it cost?
Yamauchi: About 20,000 points. with all options included, about 25,000.
Honestly I already expected that they wouldn't use their points sparingly but I didn't expect that they would spend the points quickly.
Although I know that maybe they bought it so they don't run out when they're in the dorm, even I have my games on my cell phone to kill time when I have nothing to do.
while i was lost in my thoughts i notice that ayanokouji staring at the drink machine
Ryusei: Something wrong?
Ayanokouji: Oh nothing, hey does the cafeteria offer ready meals that are free?
Ryusei: Yes, if I'm not mistaken they offer a set of vegetables.
He goes back to being thoughtful about something again.
Ayanokouji: Hey, there are some people who eat the free meal.
Now that he spoke, I noticed the senpai agluns eating that set of vegetables.
Ike: It's probably because it's the end of the month.
Ayanokouji: If that's the case, fine.
That's probably right, after all, there are people who manage to manage their points well and others who don't...
Ike: Hey, we are
hanging out with kushida-chan and her friends afterwards, you want to go too.
Ryusei: Sure, why not.
During a short break between changing teachers, ike asked me if I wanted to go with them and kushida somewhere, and since I had nothing to do after class, I accepted. He said that including me there were five people who were going to leave.
Ike: Kushida-chan is mine, so don't get in the way!
Yamauchi: No, no, kushida-chan is my target, so you back off.
Currently me, ayanokouji, yamauchi and ike are waiting for kushida, after class I went to my room to change clothes and came to meet the boys but while we are waiting I have to put up with ike and yamauchi's discussions about who is going try to conquer kushida.
They continue to argue when I decide to ask something.
Ryusei: Are you really going to try something with kushida?
Ike: Of course she's the girl of my dreams.
Yamauchi seems to be of the same opinion but I highly doubt they can get something out of kushida.
Ike: And you're interested in the horikita right? She's beautiful, I'll admit that.
Ryusei: Huh, when I said I was interested in her? I just said she's my type.
Ike: Okay, I know.
He said in a sarcastic tone.
As long as it's with me I won't care much, but if they start saying that in front of horikita, then I'm screwed, ike was about to say something but to my happiness I saw kushida running.
Kushida: Sorry for being late. Thank you for waiting!
kushida shouted as he came towards us.
Ike: Oh, don't worry, kushida-chan! Wait a second, why is hirara here?
Ike who was excited by the arrival of kushida quickly became worried by the presence of hirata.
Kushida: Oh, he joined us on the way. he asked me if they could come. There is something wrong.
Ryusei: It's fine with me, I don't see any problem.
Besides hirata came his girlfriend karuizawa and two girls who were friends with karuizawa, matsushita and mori.
Ike: Hey, isn't there a method to refuse hirata and tell him to go away?
I hear ike whisper to ayanokouji. I could only sigh when I saw this, seriously what does he have against the hirata?
Ayanokouji: I don't think there's any reason to send him away.
Ike: This handsome boy will outshine us! what are you going to do if kushida-chan falls in love with hirata? We can't let that handsome guy be with a girl like kushida.
Does he realize that hirata has a girlfriend?
Ayanokouji: No, I don't know about that... Besides, isn't hirata dating karuizawa? I wouldn't worry.
Ike: Just because you say he has a girlfriend doesn't guarantee anything. If you compare a slovenly, dirty and extravagant girl like karuizawa with the beautiful little angel kushida-chan, anyone would choose kushida-chan.
I decide to stop listening to ike's complaints, since it doesn't make sense for him not to want the presence just because of bullshit.
Ike: Let me ask you frankly, hirata are you dating karuizawa?
In order to see if hirata was his rival, ike asked if he was in a relationship.
Hirata: Eh...where did you hear that?
Hirata was surprised by ike's sudden question, I think he's nervous to answer that question, and I don't blame him after all maybe he still wants to reveal to everyone that he's dating.
Karuizawa: Oh looks like they already figured it out. we are dating
Before hirata could answer, karuizawa came and hugged hirata's arm.
Embarrassed hirata admits he is in a relationship with karuizawa.
Yamauchi: Really? I'm so jealous that you date a beautiful girl like karuizawa.
yamauchi said with mock envy.
Ike: Kushida-chan, do you have a boyfriend?
Ike asked Kushida hoping she would say no.
Kushida: Me? no, I'm not dating anyone.
When she said that, ike and yamauchi's joy went up a lot and it was on their faces.
...
After a while that we got together we started walking around just checking the facilities.
"Ike, where are we going?" Someone asked.
Ike looked back and answered.
Ike: Since not much time has passed since the entrance ceremony, we're just checking out the facilities.
So there's no clear destination, well I really don't have much idea what I want to do.
Kushida: Hey, matsushita-san, mori-san. what do you two want to see?
Kushida asked the two girls as they continued walking.
Matsushita: Eh? oh, um i've always wanted to go to the movies at least once.
Mori: Yes. since class is over for today I want to go too.
Kushida: Oh, that's right! I've always wanted to go, but I haven't yet. Karuizawa-san, and you? Is there somewhere you want to go?
Go to the cinema? It's not a bad idea, I think I already have something to do when I feel like it or when there's a movie I want to watch a lot.
Since school started I haven't gone out to do anything fun after school, I always stay in my dorm watching movies or series or playing games on my cell phone.
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even notice that we had arrived at a clothing store, people walked in without much hesitation, it seems that they've been here before, I've never seen it here because I don't see the need since I have enough clothes I brought from home and they were in good condition.
There were a lot of students here in the store, I noticed that there were a few seniors and the rest were all juniors.
After the group had a look around the store, we headed to the nearby cafe.
Hirata was holding karuizawa's groceries at the store, I got curious and took a look at how much she spent and it was about 30,000 points... seriously spending all of that just on clothes! they are really kicking ass with these points.
Kushida: Have you guys gotten used to school yet?
Kushida asked everyone.
Ike: At first I was really confused, but I'm used to it now. this is my dream school, i never want to graduate.
Nothing is easy for sure there's something strange about it all.
Kushida: Hahah, looks like ike-kun is enjoying his school life huh.
Karuizawa: I wish we had more points. about 200,000...300,000 points? After shopping for clothes and cosmetics my points run out quickly.
THEN BE MORE RESPONSIBLE ON HOW TO USE YOUR POINTS!!!!
Hirata: So it wouldn't be weird for a high school student to get 300,000 points a month for his allowance?
Ryusei: It's weird enough, us teenagers getting 100,000 points.
I decide to say something since they are talking about the point issue.
Kushida: Why do you think that, nogami-kun?
Ryusei: Oh come on, giving 100,000 points which equals 100,000 yen to a bunch of teenagers who are immature is really weird even though there are those who manage to be mature and responsible it's still weird.
They continue to listen to me without replying.
Ryusei: And another thing, people are spending all their points without the slightest care, the example of this is these two (I point to Ike and yamauchi) in three weeks they spent almost all their points, I also saw karuizawa spending 30,000 points just on the clothes and that today, imagine during the month.
Yamauchi: So, we'll earn 100,000 points again at the beginning of the month.
Ryusei: (Sigh) Did you really pay attention to sensei's explanation when she talked about the stitches? Because as I recall she had said that they would reset our points at the beginning of the month but she never said it would be 100,000 points exactly.
Yamauchi looked like he was going to snap back but I spoke before he could.
Ryusei: Also assuming they actually give us 100,000 points again, do you really think our class will gain 100,000 from class behavior?
Hjrata: What do you mean?
Ryusei: Don't you find it strange that the teachers aren't caring about how the students are behaving during their classes? For example sudo arrives late and sometimes even says it during class, the others either talk or use their cell phones during class time and I find this strange because I don't even need to say that it would be normal for the teacher to call the attention of the student who is not paying attention or expel him from the classroom.
Kushida: Well now that you mention it.
Ryusei: I don't think they're drawing attention, because maybe they're discounting all those infractions they commit in points, consequently reducing the number of points we'll earn on the first day of the month.
Hirata: So you think the number of points we'll earn depends on how our class behaves during class?
Ryusei: I don't know, everything I said is just speculation maybe I'm wrong, we'll only really know when the day comes.
Karuizawa: Oh let's stop this conversation, we came here to relax and pass the time and not to stress.
Kushida: Yeah, you're right.
Yamauchi: But if we're going to talk about school issues apart from hirata and kushida-chan, how did ike and karuizawa pass? aren't they stupid?
You really are the last person who can call them stupid.
Ayanokouji: Yamauchi, you don't look smart either.
Yamauchi: There is? I got 900 points on APEC before.
Ike: What is APEC?
Yamauchi: You don't even know what that is? it's a really hard english test.
Kushida: Uh, you don't mean TOEIC?
Kushida gently corrected yamauchi, how did he manage to confuse a test name with that of an organization? because APEC is Asia-Pacific economic cooperation.
Yamauchi: T-They're related things, aren't they?
Seriously, did he actually ask that question.
Well, never mind, I'll just take the time to relax and rest, because tomorrow there will be more from school.
...
Ryusei Pov
beep beep beep
Sound of the alarm roca and I'm going to do the same routine, get up to brush my teeth, eat breakfast and change.
I decided to take a look at my cell phone to see how many points I had since it was the first of May, and when I went to check I had...
PP: 86,898
Nothing has changed, I have the same number of stitches I had yesterday before going to sleep, could it be that there was an error? or maybe they delayed the distribution of points?
I decide to call a certain person to clarify my doubts.
[ ???: Hello, ryu-chan good morning!
Ryusei: Good morning honami, I would like to ask you something.
[Honami: Sure, ask whatever you want.
Ryusei: Have you by any chance received your points yet?
[ Honami : Yes, I already received it as well as all my colleagues.
Ryusei: And how many points did you get?
[ Honami : Well it wasn't 100,000 points, everyone in my class including me received 65,000.
Ryusei: I see, thank you very much for answering.
[ Honami : no problem!, see you later ryu-chan.
Ryusei: Bye.
I hang up the call and well... it seems that it was right that we would not win 100,000, so we may have ended up with 0 points just to explain why we continue with the same points as yesterday but I still need to know how all this works , I think sensei will explain this soon since there's going to be an uproar about the stitches.
...
I was one of the first to arrive in the class and little by little more people arrived who were already beginning to complain that the points had not changed.
Sensei entered the classroom carrying a sign
" Sensei, I checked my points balance this morning, and no points were deposited. They shouldn't be given out on the first of the month, should they?
Everyone who was confused by the situation kept looking at sensei waiting for the answer to her doubts.
Chiyabashira: Houndou, I explained this before, didn't I? Points are deposited into student accounts on the first of the month each month. they were also deposited this month without any problems.
Hondou: Uh, but...I didn't get any points.
Then comes something that takes me by surprise.
Chiyabashira: Are you really that stupid?
Sensei says this with a small smile, it really seems like today will be a day full of surprising things.
End
Hey guys so enjoying the story what have you been thinking so far especially the protagonist?
