“Man, we’ve been together since elementary school and now we’re already high school students! What do you think about that, Hideyori!?”
“After all this time, what am I supposed to say here?”
“Don’t be so shy.”
“I’m not being shy, you idiot.”
.
.
On the train, I enjoy a peaceful conversation with Hideyroi.
Risa is having fun chatting with Sasaki.
.
.
“It would be nice if we are in the same class again this year right!”
“I don’t want to be in the same class as you though.”
“Don’t be so shy.”
“I’m not shy, fool.”
.
.
It’s fun to tease Hideyori and see him getting heated like this.
.
.
“Come to think of it, I taught Risa-chan a secret move to wake you up. Did she use it on you yet?”
“She did. She almost kissed me this morning, you know!”
“Don’t be so shy.”
“Of course, I’d be! It’s impossible to be that thick-skinned alright! You would get it if you have a little sister, Hideyori.”
“A sister huh? Unfortunately, I wouldn’t feel like that even if I had one. Rather, it would be wrong to do your sister so it would be the worst right.”
.
.
This guy’s woman = s*x mentality really is the worst.
Well, Hideyori is a typical only child so there’s nothing I can do about that.
.
.
“Your resolution should be to stop being a siscon, Takeru.”
“And yours should be to stop flirting with women, Hideyori.”
.
.
The two of us look at each other in silence.
Both of us are giving a questioning look to each other.
.
.
“…….”
“…….”
“…….yeah, that’s impossible.”
“…….no choice but to give up huh.”
.
.
Our April resolutions immediately crashed and burned right after they took off.
While we were having such a meaningless conversation, the train kept moving toward our new school.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
When we arrived at school, I found a place with a crowd of new students.
A big class chart was pinned on the bulletin board there but the problem is that the letters are too small for me to read it from afar.
.
.
“That’s the class chart huh.”
“It’d be a pain to get through that crowd. Takeru, it’s time for our combo move!”
“Oh! I’m going to rely on you, Hideyori!”
“So, here’s the plan. You get in there and take a look at our class. Once you get that you RINE me the result. Alright, let’s go with this.”
“Wait, you’d be the only one who has it easy right.”
.
.
Hideyori proposed a plan where he clearly has no intention to do anything himself.
If possible, I don’t want to jump into that crowd either.
Risa and Sasaki also looked troubled at the number of people in front of the bulletin board.
.
When I was thinking of a way to infiltrate the crowd, I spotted a green-haired woman who was wearing a familiar star-shaped headband nearby.
Rather, she’s my acquaintance.
.
.
“O~~i, Tsugaru!”
“Don’t get so familiar with me, boy!”
“Ehhh……..”
.
.
That’s the man-hater but girl-loving Tsugaru Madoka.
She’s only my acquaintance but I think she’s good friends with Risa.
.
.
“Eh!? Isn’t Risa’s chest even bigger now after the spring break!?”
“They don’t grow that easily you know……..”
“And Emi doesn’t get taller at all!?”
“Probably not…….”
“Awawawawawa, so cute! I want to make a harem! Boys can just go bite the dust though.”
“……”
“…….”
.
.
While she’s very loving when it comes to girls, she really has no regard for me or Hideyori.
If she wasn’t a friend of Risa then I probably wouldn’t be acquainted with her in the first place.
.
.
“Madoka-san, did you see the class chart already?”
“Risa-chan and Emi-chan are in Class-A, the same as me! ………well, those two nuisances are also with us though……..”
“You’re treating us like some nuisances!?”
“I should have gone with an all-girl school……..if I don’t have to deal with Juumonji’s stupid face and Hideori’s delinquency then I’d be in paradise already.”
.
.
Tsugaru can be very mean to boys so I don’t really want to get too close to her.
Out of all the women I know, she’s by far the No.1 pervert weirdo.
.
.
“Also, there’s a nostalgic name too. Remember Towa? She used to hang out with us for a while.”
.
.
.
★Choices★
→ Towa? ……..Who’s that?
Ahh, that sure is nostalgic! (+1 to Towa’s favorability)
Don’t mind that, I want to hug Tsugaru instead (-2 from Everyone’s favorability)
.
.
.
.
“Towa? ……..Who’s that?”
“Nii-san……. Don’t you remember Miyamura Towa-san? We went to buy swimsuits together at the mall right……..”
“Ahh, her……”
.
.
It seemed she went through something and I rarely talked to her after that……..
I remember that she got along well with Risa, Sasaki, and Tsugaru for a while.
I should try calling out to her when I see her.
.
.
“Hm? Wait a minute, where’s Hideyori and Sasaki?”
“They’re gone.”
“They slipped away when I said that we’re all in Class-A. What, you didn’t notice, Juumonji-kun?”
.
.
.
.
★Choices★
→ Risa, let’s head to the classroom (+1 to Risa’s favorability)
Where did Hideyori go I wonder.
More importantly, I want to confess to Tsugaru (BAD END)
.
.
.
.
“What, they sneaked off huh. Guess we will see them in class then. Risa, let’s head to the classroom.”
“Let’s do.”
“You’re acting like a siscon again……..well, see you in class okay, Risa!”
.
.
Without any such warm parting words to me, Tsugaru saw Risa off.
Somehow, this is getting sad, isn’t it………
As Risa and I walk down the hallway, someone runs into me.
.
.
“…….oh.”
“Ah……., S, Sorry…….I’m in a bit of a hurry……..”
“Don’t worry about it.”
.
.
“Nii-san, that was a girl right?”
“Yeah, but she used [Boku] huh.” (TLN: the girl used Boku, a slightly masculine pronoun)
.
.
I have never met a girl like that before.
Well, it’s a big school. It wouldn’t be strange if there were girls who use [Boku], [Ore], or [Ora] to call themselves in first person. (TLN: Ore is a very masculine pronoun, boys in general use Ore.)
Still, this place has already set out to be a pretty colorful high school already.
Since there are only honor students or Gift Holders here, I guess this place is probably filled with all kinds of people.
.
.
“…..Fufufu, I can finally work on my plan to kill Onee-sama.”
“……..”
.
.
We just passed by each other but she sure muttered something scary to herself huh?
Scary, since this place only has honor students and Gift Holders, there are probably tons of psychos here too huh.
……let’s pretend I didn’t hear that.
.
.
“First-year Class-A, seems like this is the place.”
.
.
While following the school map, Risa finally found our classroom.
So this place will be the new chapter of mine and Risa’s lives huh.
I’m getting nervous already…….
Author Note:
Ahh, that sure is nostalgic! (+1 to Towa’s favorability)
Even if the person herself was absent, her favorability point would still increase.
.
.
It seemed she went through something and I rarely talked to her after that……..
Unless you get into their individual route, the setting would be conveniently hidden like this.
.
.
.
Also, the land mine in plain sight, Tsugaru Madoka.
