COTE Reacts

Vice President

It's so hot, I feel like I could die ..."
The next day, I parked myself at the crossroads connecting the paths to the various dorms, choosing a spot under the trees that lined the road.
The crossroads were unavoidable if you wanted to meet up with a senior student.
They also intersected with the path to the Keyaki Mall and the school building.
No matter where Katsuragi decided to go, I wouldn't miss him.

It would've been better to wait in the cool lobby, but unfortunately, some girls from another class had decided to get together and have tea there.

Hashimoto: Wait, so what if there are girls there?

(Who does he think I am?) "I don't know."

Discovering that had felt like entering a restaurant and finding no spots readily available.
I wasn't confident enough to try to slip into the lobby, then sit down and relax when a seat opened up.
Of course, all the students were dressed casually.
That made me think of Katsuragi yesterday, still wearing his uniform.
No rule stated that you couldn't wear your uniform over summer vacation, but even if you didn't care much about fashion, the uniforms did get extremely hot.
Katsuragi had even worn the long-sleeved uniform shirt, rather than the short-sleeved summer one.
Since I was typically low on points, I'd been unaware until recently that summer clothes were sold at rather high prices.
There were girls in our class who wanted them but had to do without.
There were definitely reasons why someone would purposely wear their school uniform.
A couple walked out of the upperclassmen's dorms — a guy and a girl.

Horikita: (Nii-san!)

Ike: Oh, it's the student council president, is he dating that girl?

When they saw me, they changed directions and walked toward me. "

Ryuuen: Oh? Seems like you're friends with the Scp?

"I'm not."

Hey.
It's been a while." "
I was just wondering who would wear their school uniform in this insane heat.
I guess the answer is Horikita's brother," I muttered.
Unlike Katsuragi, these two wore summer uniforms.
Still, I couldn't help feeling like something was out of place. "

Horikita: You're the one out of place.

Whoa.

President, this student really has a sour look on his face," said the girl next to Student Council President Horikita Manabu.

Haruka: Kiyopon, just what did you do to her? She really despises you or something.

(Probably because I was rude to the president? Horikita might stab me though, so) "I don't know."

She spoke in aloud, exaggerated manner.
She was a third-year student, Secretary Tachibana.
The girls 'uniforms looked as though they didn't get as intensely hot as the boys'. "
The student council seems rather busy, even during summer vacation," I said. "
We decided to do some reorganizing work in the student council room," explained Secretary Tachibana. "
I see." "
You know, that was a really stupid response.
You should be careful what you say, you know?
Do you even know who you're talking to?
This is the fearsome student council president!"
