Homeroom

Suzuki was sitting down when Kiyone sat down next to him.

Kiyone: Did you get your points today?

Suzuki: No. Maybe they've been delayed somehow.

Chabashira walked in as students began clamouring about Poits and Chabashira explained everything.

Suzuki- I... I'm in the lowest-raked class? How can that be? After all that effort I put in. Was it all for nothing?

Kiyone put her hand on his shoulder.

Kiyone: You heard her. We can advance the class.

Suzuki: I shouldn't have been laced in this class in the first place. This is all a mistake.

Chabashira: right now your Class Points are 0 but there's a chance to slowly earn them back. Through Special Exams. The first one is coming up soon. The Midterms. You can earn up to a total of 100 Points from it.

Everyone was tense while Suzuki was taking notes.

Suzuki: The Midterms. Ayanokoji-San. Would you like to come with me to lunch?

Kiyone: Huh? All of a sudden?

Suzuki: Just come with me.

He led her to the cafeteria.

Cafeteria

They sat down.

Suzuki: Feel free to order whatever you like. It's on me.

Kiyone: Is this a date?

Suzuki: What? No! I'm just treating you.

Kiyone sighed ordering her food.

Suzuki: So Ayanokoji. Will you help me organise study groups?

Kiyone: I want no part in this though.

Suzuki: I paid for this expensive meal didn't I?

Kiyone: When you say you're treating someone it means you don't expect anything in return.

Suzuki: But when someone does you a kindness it's expected that the person repays that kindness.

Suzuki- I kind of want to see her pout but I doubt she would.

Kiyone: Very well but isn't food trapping something women do? Not men?

Suzuki didn't even entertain the conversation any longer.

Suzuki: Here's my phone number. Contact me if you need anything.

Kiyone: Sure.

Suzuki- Giving my phone number to her like that. it was embarrassing but still. It was necessary. That's right... that's why I gave it to her.

Kiyone sighed.

Library

Sudo, Yamauchi and Ike entered the library and sat down with Suzuki, Kiyone and Hirata.

Suzuki: You actually got them to come. I'm surprised.

Ike: Anything for a cute girl.

Yamauchi: Yeah. Kiyone has our hearts with her cuteness.

Sudo: Hey don't lump me in with those two. I only came here cause I wanted to.

Suzuki- It's so obvious that that's a lie.

They started studying when Sudo had an outburst.

Sudo: I don't get it at all!

Suzuki: I'm astounded that you made it through Middle school at all with this level of academics. You're more stupid than I thought.

Sudo: I've had enough of this!

Sudo got up grabbing Suzuki's collar.

Hirata: Hey don't!

Kiyone got up sitting next to Sudo's spot and flipping the pages of his workbook.

Kiyone: Ah... I see now. Where you made the mistake. You're confusing Parabolas and compounding charts.

Sudo: Huh? You...

Kiyone: Sit down. I'll help drill it into your head.

Suzuki- The way she's helping him... why?

To Suzuki, it was like watching a mother taking care of a child and nurturing them. It made him feel jealous though he didn't linger long enough on it to fully recognise it for what it was.

Sudo: Hey I think I understand now.

Yamauchi: Help me out too!

Ike: Hey! It's my turn to be taught by Ayanokoji-San!

Hirata looked at Kiyone with admiration. Eventually, the study group ended and Sudo confronted Suzuki.

Sudo: listen. I hate your guts and I'm not losing to you.

Suzuki: I find it laughable that you would even challenge me. Fine, whoever gets the higher score in the...

Sudo: Not about that. Ayanokoji. I won't let you have her.

Suzuki: What are you talking about? I have no intention of dating her.

Sudo: That's bullshit and we both know it.

Sudo left.

Suzuki- What kind of nonsense is he talking about? There's no way.

Alleyway

Suzuki met with Makoto.

Suzuki: Neechan I...

Makoto: I told you not to follow me around everywhere. I told you not to come to this school.

Suzuki: But I...

Makoto: If you can't be your own person what is even the point of graduating from this school? Coming here without changing is honestly pathetic. I'm disappointed.

Suzuki: But I... I worked hard!

Makoto: And you still ended up in Class D. Why do you think that is?

Suzuki: It doesn't matter! I'll make it to Class A even if I have to do it alone!

Makoto grabbed his wrist pinning him.

Makoto: You think it's so easy to reach Class A with the defect you have?

Suzuki: Nee-chan I...

Makoto: There's no question about it. You're a deficient person. You have an aversion to people. women especially. You're arrogant and think too highly of yourself while thinking too badly of others. Because of this, you're acting like a parasite attaching to me and my path. Even now yo could break free of my grip but you choose not to. perhaps I taught my annoying little brother a lesson.

Makoto balled her fist and was about to strike him when Kiyone grabbed her arm.

Suzuki: Ayanokoji!?

Kiyone: Violence against men is often overlooked. I'm not going to overlook it so you better let him go.

Makoto swung her arm back as Kiyone dodged. Makoto kicked at her and she dodged again. Makoto then tried to grab her but Kiyone slapped her hand away.

Makoto: You move well. What arts do you practice?

Kiyone: Piano and calligraphy.

Suzuki- ... You can't be serious.

Makoto: I see who you are no. I'd heard of a student that rigged their results. What I can't understand is why you chose to be placed in Class D.

Kiyone: I have no idea what you're talking about.

Suzuki- She rigged her results? To end up in class D?

Makoto inspected her face closer.

Makoto: Hey... you're cute. Are you my little brother's girlfriend?

Suzuki: Eh!? Neechan!

Kiyone: No not really. I think we barely even count as friends.

Suzuki- Why does it hurt to hear her say that. What's wrong with me?

Makoto leaned towards Kiyone.

Makoto: I know my brother is selfish and arrogant but he's a good kid so try to take care of him okay?

Suzuki: Huh!? What are you saying?

Kiyone: Well if that's all then sure.

Suzuki: Huh? What are you saying all of a sudden?

Kiyone: It's not a big ask and you'll find a way to blackmail me into helping you anyways.

Makoto: Blackmailing your girlfriend are you?

Makoto grabbed him by the ear.

Suzuki: Ow! She's not my...

Makoto: Apologise.

Suzuki: But she's... Ow! I'm sorry.

Kiyone: Apology accepted.

Makoto left.

Suzuki: You enjoyed that didn't you?

Kiyone: Not particularly though it didn't bother me that much either.

Suzuki; Are you a robot or something?

Kiyone: Maybe.

A few seconds passed.

Kiyone: Not funny?

Suzuki: Not in the slightest.

Cafeteria

Kiyone sat down next to a Class 2D Senpai. He blushed as she did.

Class 2D Senpai- She's so cute even with that monotone look.

Kiyone: Senpai could I perhaps have the old tests for the midterms from you?

Class 2D Senpai: Well... um... I can't give it to you for free.

Kiyone: How much?

Class 3D Senpai: 10, 000 Private Points and one other thing.

Kiyone: What other thing?

Class 2D Senpai: Your...um... your number.

Kiyone: Sure.

With that the transaction was complete.

Class 2D Senpai: When I reach Class B at least I'll call you!

Kiyone: Huh?

Kiyone had no idea that he was trying to show his determination.

Kiyone: Sure.

She left.

Homeroom

Kiyone approached Kushida.

Kiyone: Kushida-San. Can we talk outside?

Kushida: Um... sure.

They walked outside.

Kushida then bowed to her.

Kushida: I promise I have no feelings for Horiktia-Kun. I won't get in your way Ayanokoji-Chan.

Kiyone: Huh? No. that's not what I wanted to talk about.

Kiyone handed the printouts to her.

Kiyone: Could you distribute these to our classmates?

Kushida: Huh? Oh. Sure.

Kushida took it.

Kushida- Lazy bitch.

We walked back inside as Kushida handed them out to everyone.

Ike: Practice questions? thank you so much Kushida-Chan!

Kushida: Well Ay...

Kiyone: Yes these will be very helpful. Thank you Kushida.

Kushida- Huh? The fuck is this bitch up to?

The day of the test every single student from Class D passed with flying colours. Kushida approached Kiyone.

Kushida: Why id you tell everyone that I made the papers?

Kiyone: Horiktia-Kun made them but he didn't want anyone knowing abut it since he's well... you know.

Kushida: Oh I see.

Kiyone: Well I'll see you another time.

Kushida: Okay.

Kushida- She's wierd.
