…And with that, we decided to get someone to replace me, a mere minor, as the dorm manager.

And I didn’t know whether I should look forward to it or not.

Foodstuff. Google knows things.

May 10th, 12:30 P.M. (Student Dormitory ・ Manager Room)

And then, the next day…

I collapsed.

“It’s the summer flu. You also have anemia from overworking yourself.”

That was the doctor’s clear and simple diagnosis. He had come to our dorm for my check up.

“Be sure to get plenty of rest and nutrition. It’s the only way to cure this. Resting for three or four days in your futon should be enough.”

After giving these instructions, he prescribed some medication for me and left.

Oh man, I really lost face. I prided myself on having a sturdy body, and I hadn’t had to see a doctor in years. The stress from transferring schools, moving to the dorms, and dealing with manuscript deadlines had unexpectedly piled up in a short time. My body couldn’t handle it.

Well, now that it’s come to this, it can’t be helped. I’ll take a break from work and school while I try to recover.

I thought just lying in a futon for days would be boring, but I could only resign myself to my fate. When I started resting, I was grateful my illness hadn’t already turned into pneumonia or something.

…Yeah, that was my mindset; I didn’t take this seriously. However, it was quite different for everyone else.

“Now I’ve done it, eh? For me of all people to make such a blunder.”

Prez, who was usually so cheerful that she irritated me, heaved a long sigh.

“So I can’t even look after ma subordinates’ health. Guess Nikaidou Arashi’s still just a kid. That was a thorough lesson, jeez…”

“It’s not just you, President. I, too, must be held accountable.”

Nasuhara-san said with a rare, meek expression.

“Now that I think of it, Akkii’s looked rather unhealthy lately. Yet I unthinkingly overlooked it because he didn’t say anything, and the changes were trivial.”

“If you’re goin’ that far, then it’s also my fault.”

And then Ginbei chimed in. She looked downcast. Like the others, she didn’t blame me for neglecting my own health:

“I’ve boasted about how long I’ve known Akito, but I didn’t even notice anything. I can’t believe I called myself his close friend…”

“…………”

As for Akiko, she was hanging her head in silence, completely dejected. Maybe because she had been busy lamenting her own worthlessness, she ended up sitting motionlessly at my bedside with a haggard expression. She didn’t let go of my hand.

“Nono. Please wait a second, everyone.”

I smiled wryly while lying on the futon:

“I just caught a cold and am bedridden. Why are you all being so gloomy? C’mon, be noisy as usual. I’d feel more at ease if you said stuff like, ‘You’re an idiot for catching a cold.’ ”

“You might say that, ya see…”

Prez shook her head.

“We can’t help feelin’ responsible, ya know? We pushed everythin’ involvin’ the dorm onto you. Ya could say I’m exagerratin’, but we’re the reason yer sufferin’ through this, ya know?”

“That’s definitely an exaggeration.
