Act 2 - Summer Break
10-1 Even though it's a closing ceremony | Prologue
The sound of the chime rang out.
I fanned myself with my shirt to save myself from the heat of the gym, which was as hot and humid as a sauna.
This was the second summer for Shidou Rintaro, a high schoolboy.
When the average temperature this year was expected to be higher than last year, he was already 80% sure of defeat.
"It's hot, yea, Rintaro." (Yukio)
"Yeah...... it is, Yukio." (Rintaro)
I have a meaningless conversation with Inaba Yukio, who was standing next to me.
The only reason we were in the gym was that it was the closing ceremony.
All the students were already lined up in a regular line in front of the stage, and with the jump in population density, the temperature must be higher than it should be.
Still, I could bear with it by the thought that tomorrow was the summer break.
It didn't matter how many summer assignments had been relentlessly handed to us, it was a minor problem compared to the long break of about forty days.
Well, most of the students end up suffering in the second half of August. By the way, I was the type of person who finished homework in the first half of the month. I was often told that I was a conscientious or serious person, but frankly speaking, I just simply have nothing to do.
Last summer was horrible, and all I could do was work, study, or have dinner with Yukio. I felt blessed to be able to hang out with my only friend, but since he and his family went on a trip abroad in the latter half of summer break, I really didn't have anything else to do but work.
It's not that I was unhappy about it, I just admitted that I wondered to myself several times if I was doing the right thing.
――――Suddenly, I turned my gaze to a very popular idol in my class.
The great star by the name of Otosaki Rei was standing there with an unperturbed face, even in this heat. As expected of an idol. Her facial expressions didn't change much to begin with, and she didn't even show any signs of sluggishness to the people around her.
Perhaps she noticed my gaze, my eyes met hers as she looked sideways at me.
Instantly, Rei's face broke out in a smile that was extremely endearing. It was the kind of murderous smile she had been sporting lately, the kind that would make every fan die with glee.
But as expected, I wouldn't be fazed anymore. Because I've seen the superior one at her concert, not through a screen, but in person.
"Ee, here's the principal's speech."
The teacher's voice echoed through the microphone, and an old man who was the principal appeared in the center of the stage.
It was often said that principals tend to give long speeches, and our principal was no exception.
He reviewed all the events that took place during the first semester, and made suggestions on how to spend the summer break. It's not that what the principal was saying was wrong, but in this situation, he was very unsympathetic. After all, with this temperature, everyone wants to get out of here as soon as possible.
"――――This concludes the closing ceremony."
As long as we all put our minds to it and endure, we would finally be liberated with such a teacher's words.
After getting the report card and listening to a few announcements, the day was over.
(......Alright)
I looked at my report card and let out a sigh of relief.
Our school gave out grades on a five-point scale, with five being the best. I got a relatively many 5s followed by a few 4s.
I guess you could call it a good grade. It was worth the effort I had put in since last year.
"Rintaro, how were your grades?"
Yukio, who was sitting in front of me in the classroom, leaned backward and asked me.
"Hmm? Aah, it's higher than last year. How about you, Yukio?" (Rintaro)
"I'm about the same as last year. Not much has changed." (Yukio)
"You've always had good grades from the beginning." (Rintaro)
"Hahaha, except for PE......." (Yukio)
"Well, it can't be helped this semester. You can make it up in the second semester anyway." (Rintaro)
Yukio's grades were among the highest in the school. However, this was only true for the classroom courses, and only in physical education during the first semester did he get a 2.
This was due to the swimming class that started in June. From what I've heard, the chlorine was so incompatible with his skin that he couldn't participate in the first place. There was no way to give good grades to students who didn't participate, so the school and Yukio agreed to give him a minimum grade. There was no way around it.
"But you worked really hard this semester, Rintaro. You weren't bad at all back then, but are you still aiming for a good university?" (Yukio)
"...... Well, yeah, that's "the condition"." (Rintaro)
When I left my father's house, I was given one condition.
I had to get into a university with a deviation score of 60 or higher. That was the task that I had to complete.
My father wanted me to have an educational background that would not tarnish the name of the Shidou Group.
As long as I was a minor, I couldn't defy my parent, so I had no choice but to abide by this condition.
At any rate, it was better than being forced to learn incomprehensible business administration and other things under my father.
"If possible, I'd like to go to the same university as Rintaro." (Yukio)
"Sorry to say, but I can't go to a university with a deviation score as high as your level." (Rintaro)
"It's okay, I'll adjust then. Going to a place with high deviations value alone will probably only cause stress." (Yukio)
That may be true.
You have to choose something that fits your capability, after all.
"Well then, I guess we'll just have to work hard again, what do you want to do today? I'm free for now, do you want to go do some homework?" (Rintaro)
"Sounds good. Let's start with the problem sets and get them done quickly." (Yukio)
Rei will not be there due to work this afternoon, so it might be a good idea to invite Yukio to my new house.
I think once in a while I'll cook dinner for someone other than them――――
"Ah, sorry. I have to go to the library to return some books before I leave. Can you go ahead?" (Yukio)
"Sure. I'll wait for you by the shoe rack." (Rintaro)
I put my bag on my shoulder and headed for the front door, leaving Yukio behind.
Even though I was indoors, I could still feel the damp and unpleasant humidity sticking to my skin. If only the humidity could be made rid of, the summer would be a little more comfortable.
"――――U, umm!"
"Hmm?" (Rintaro)
As I was leaning against the shoe rack, idly looking at my phone, I suddenly heard an unfamiliar girl's voice.
I looked up and saw no one around me.
It seemed that she was on the other side of the shoe rack I was leaning against, and that the voice hadn't been directed at me in the first place.
"Please, go out with me!"
My breath caught in my throat.
I never thought I'd hear a live confession here. She probably didn't even know I was here. If I made a bad move, I might make her feel awkward, so I'd just kill my presence here.
If she succeeded in confessing now, the summer vacation would be the best time for her to spend with her boyfriend. The timing was perfect. So, I closed my eyes as if I was praying for her success.
"――――I'm sorry, there's someone I like."
Hey, wait. I had no idea who the girl was, but I recognized the guy.
Kakihara Yuusuke, a very popular and handsome guy who was a perfect superhuman.
It's rare to encounter a confession scene, but it never occurred to me that someone I know was involved in it.
"I-I see....... I'm sorry, I abruptly."
"Please don't apologize, I was really happy, to hear your feelings." (Yuusuke)
Then, I heard the sound of the girl running away.
I was going to keep quiet and let it pass, but on second thought, Kakihara and I were classmates. So, we have the same location for the shoe rack――――
"Rintaro...... if you were here, why didn't you call out to me?" (Yuusuke)
Well, turned out as I guessed.
