Chapter Eleven

The Way Back Home

We wake up bright and early at 7:00AM the next day.

After we all gather in the main courtyard, we do some light exercise before enjoying our breakfast. It’s a simple meal, nothing too fancy—rice balls, rolled omelet, and a light pork miso soup—but still quite nice. I think the other guys agree with me, because they’ve all also been eagerly scarfing the food down.

“Hahahaha! I love it when I see young’uns eating their fill. Eat as much as you’d like! There’s even seconds if you want! Ahh, it feels good when my cooking is appreciated,” Yamamoto exclaims with a hearty smile.

I didn’t think very highly of the man before, but I must admit that this has definitely given him some brownie points with me, that’s for sure.

Eventually, we finish eating and head toward one of the building’s former classrooms. We’re going to be staying here till around noon practicing our debate skills or something of the sort. We’ll mainly be discussing the school’s many problems in order to come up with solutions to improve or solve them. At first, I thought that only the student council members and Makiri-sensei would be participating, but apparently Touka and I will be joining in, as well.

We arrive at the classroom, and it’s quickly decided that Ike will be the one leading the conversation as a sort of moderator. With that settled, we begin our discussions.

Most of the time, I feel like I’m being placed in the role of a yes-man. Although they frequently ask for my opinion—looking for views from a normal student’s perspective—I don’t really feel as though I can speak for everyone else at the school. I mean, my experience is totally different from my peers, and I know I shouldn’t play victim and pretend I have the same problems as everyone else. So in the end, I mostly end up nodding and agreeing.

Touka, on the other hand, has some very... strong opinions about the issues we’re discussing and makes sure to let us know it. Her presence is making this whole event a lot more interesting overall.

She’s definitely made for this, I think as I look at her.

“Um, Senpai, can you stop staring at me so much?” she asks, glancing at me.

“Oh, right. Sorry,” I reply as I look away.

She’s right; I was staring too much. Gotta stop doing that. Instead of leaving it at that, though, she gets even more ticked off for some reason.

“I mean, it’s not like I dislike it or anything, okay? But isn’t it super obvious that it’s embarrassing for me, too?” she whispers to me.

I look over at her again; she’s fiddling with her bangs and looking away. Her face is so red that it reaches as far as her ears. It all just reminds me of what happened last night—it was pretty embarrassing in the moment, and recalling it now makes me feel even more bashful. I bet that’s what she’s thinking of, too. Shit, now even I’m blushing. Damn it all.
