COTE: Reactions (Discontinue)

Rock Bottom

"Then lets start the next one" said D

On May 1, the morning bell rang for our very first day of class. Soon afterward, Chabashira-sensei strode into the room, holding a rolled-up poster. Her expression today was even more stern than usual. Had she started menopause, I wondered? If I made that joke out loud, I think she would have swung an iron bat at my face with full force.

"Ha ha ha" laughed some students

"He he, you are really a frightening person, Sae-chan, you know that right?" chuckled Hoshinomiya-sensei

"Shut up, Chie-chan." replied Chabashira-sensie

"Hey, sensei, did you start menopause or something?"

Unbelievably, Ike actually let that joke fly. Honestly, it was more shocking that I'd thought the same thing as Ike.

"All right, your morning homeroom is about to begin. Before we get started, does anyone have any questions? If so, now is the time to speak."

"Wait, did Kiyotaka-kun said May 1?" asked Hirata

"Yez, what's up with that?" asked Shinohara

"Its that ti-"

Before Hirata can finished it, D snapped his finger, making Hirata unable to speak.

"What the hells wrong with you?" the girls in Class 2 D glared at D.

Chabashira-sensei completely ignored Ike's sexual harassment. She appeared totally convinced that the students had questions they wanted answered. Immediately several students raised their hands.

"Um, I checked my point balance this morning, but I didn't see any deposits. Points are given on the first day of every month, aren't they? I couldn't buy juice this morning."

"Hondou, I already explained this before, didn't I? Points are deposited on the first day of the month. I've confirmed that points
were wired this month without any issues."

"Um, but...nothing was deposited into my account, though."

"So its during that time?" mumble most Class 2 D

The said class grows silent, a depressing atmosphere was made and the rest of the students felt it.

Hondou and Yamauchi exchanged glances. Ike appeared too shocked to notice them looking at each other. I'd checked my point balance that morning as well, but saw that it had remaine unchanged from the day before. No more points had been deposited into my account. I'd simply thought that the points would be wired later.

"Are you kids really that dumb?"

Was she angry or delighted? I was getting an ominous vibe from Chabashira-sensei.

"Dumb? What?"

"Ha ha ha ha." laughed the rest of the class except for Class 2 D.

"I can't believe you said that to your own class, Sae-chan" said Hoshinomiya-sensie

"I'm just stating facts, only at that time." replied Chabashira-sensie

"Only at that time?" peek Hoshinomiya-sensie

But Chabashira-sensie just keep silent and look at the wide screen, in front of them.

As Hondou stupidly repeated her words, Chabashira-sensei looked at him sharply.

"Sit down, Hondou. I'll explain once more," she said.

"S-Sae-chan-sensei?"

Hondou, taken aback by her unusually strict tone, slumped in his seat.
