MY ROOMIE NIGHTMARE 【佐久早 聖臣】

VOLLEYBALL | XXXIII

INT. BIOLOGY CLASS — MORNING

GOSHIKI glanced at KOYAMA, a bit curious of her far away look and furrowed brows. GOSHIKI's bangs lightly swayed with the tilt of his head, and as soon as his face came into KOYAMA's peripheral vision, the brunette focused back into reality.

KOYAMA
(Surprised)
Tsu-Kun, you
need something?

GOSHIKI
Koyama Senpai,
yesterday you
looked lost in thought,
today it's the same thing.
Is something wrong? Are
you not feeling well?

KOYAMA
(Nervous)
Today's Friday!
Why wouldn't I
feel well?

GOSHIKI
(Sarcastic)
Well, that answer
would be helpful if
I had asked for the
date.

KOYAMA
Alright,
fine.

KOYAMA
Something's been
bothering me.

GOSHIKI
(Concerned)
What do you
mean?

KOYAMA
Well, you know
how yesterday was
my birthday?

GOSHIKI
(Not amused)
Is that even
a question?

KOYAMA
Let's just say I
got a call from my
biological birth giver—

GOSHIKI
(Laughs).
Birth giver?

KOYAMA
Yes. As I was saying,
she called, or rather,
her secretary called and
offered me a small job.

GOSHIKI
(Worried)
What kind of job?

KOYAMA
Modeling.

GOSHIKI
Modeling?
You're a model?

GOSHIKI
Whaaaaaaaaa

KOYAMA
I'm not, just, some setback
happened and they needed to
find someone, and then my bg
decided "oh hey ring up my very
distant daughter who has nothing
to do with the fashion industry."

KOYAMA
Can you believe that?!

KOYAMA
Eh, I accepted
anyways.

GOSHIKI
You did it for the
money, and now you
just realized what
you've gotten yourself
into.

GOSHIKI
(Amused)
don't worry about it,
I'm sure it won't
cause any damage.

KOYAMA
(quick)
It's for the summer collection
launch of Tsuru Valley. Are
you really sure it won't
cause any damage?

GOSHIKI
Senpai, I'm sorry,
but the only option
here is pulmonary
ventilation termination.

KOYAMA
I know this is biology
class, but the next time
you make a joke that offends
my small pea sized brain,
I will not hesitate to take
the O2 out of you.

GOSHIKI
Hai.

KOYAMA
Anyways, it seems that
you've been touching
up on our vocab.

KOYAMA
Good...

KOYAMA
...because I haven't
and I'm gonna need
your help.

GOSHIKI
Out of curiosity...
when's this issue
coming out?

KOYAMA
(Suspicious)
and why would you
need to know that?

GOSHIKI
um...to support
you?

KOYAMA
(Narrows eyes).
As long as Semi-San and
Tendou don't find out
about it, we're good.

GOSHIKI
(determined)
deal!

KOYAMA
June 9th

GOSHIKI
Wait, that's
exactly a week
from today.

KOYAMA
Yeeeeep.

GOSHIKI
That's rather soon...
while you're still in
school, with the risk
of suddenly becoming
recognized by strangers
on campus.

KOYAMA
Exactly.

KOYAMA
That's not all though.
Kaori and Ayama are
definitely
going to see it.

KOYAMA
(Sweat drops).
Those two are
always online.

GOSHIKI
Oh, those are your
older sisters, right?

KOYAMA
(Crestfallen)
Right.

GOSHIKI
One thing's for
certain, you may be
in luck.

KOYAMA
And why do you
say that?

GOSHIKI
The college volleyball
team is having a home
game this weekend.

GOSHIKI
With their popularity
on campus, you won't
have to worry about
becoming the center of
attention.

KOYAMA
I hope you're
right Tsu-Kun.
