Quintuples X COTE

chapter 3- Class D

On our second day of school—well, I suppose technically it was the first day of class—we spent most of our time running over the course objectives. Apparently, many of the students were quite surprised, if not a little disappointed, by how genuinely warm and friendly the teachers at this school looked. Sudou had already made a spectacle of himself by spending most of the class asleep. I thought that the teachers would notice, but they showed no signs of doing so. After all, it was up to every individual student whether or not he or she wanted to listen in class. I wondered if this was how teachers typically interacted with students once they left compulsory education.

Then the class ended and now students are forming groups and leaving the class heading to the cafeteria.

Of course I didn't join any friend groups, so looks like I won't hang out with anyone today.

“Well, I was thinking of heading to the cafeteria. Anyone want to come with me?” announced Hirata as he stood.

He was clearly one of those all- around good guys. I had to take my hat off to him. In my heart of hearts, I’d been waiting for a savior to bestow a chance like this upon me. Yes, Hirata, I will go with you. I slowly tried to raise my hand, and…

"I will go."
"Me too!Me too!"

Girls gathered around Hirata one after another, and I lowered my hand. Why did those girls have to take his offer? This could’ve been my chance to make friends with Hirata! You don’t need to jump all over him for lunch just because he’s kind of handsome!

“Does anyone else want to come?”

Hirata looked around the room, possibly feeling a bit lonely because no other boys had joined him. Hirata scanned the classroom, and his eyes met mine. Over here! Notice me, Hirata! There’s someone here who wants an invitation! Hirata didn’t avert his eyes, just as I would expect from someone with a handle on his life who cared about the people in his class! He understood my appeal.

“Hey, Ayano—”

Hirata began to call my name, but in that instant—

“Come on. Hurry up, Hirata-kun!”

A fashionista-type girl latched onto Hirata’s arm. Ah… The girls stole Hirata’s attention. They left the classroom together, all looking rather happy.

I remained alone with my arm outstretched. Somewhat embarrassed, I tried to play it off by pretending to scratch my head.

I heard a chuckle, I turned around saw miku.

"Sorry ayanokoji-kun but you looked funny while trying to get Hitara's attention. "

"Yeah and I failed miserably."

"Hmmm, let's eat together ayanokoji-kun ."

"Really? What about your sisters , don't you eat with them."

"There is no problem, we eat together for 15 years so one time won't matter."

"OK then."

We now headed to the cafeteria.

We bought the food and then went to the table and sat down.

Alot of students were staring at us,uh they might get some wrong idaes about us.

"They really staring at us."I told miku

"Yeah it is getting uncomfortable ."

Then suddenly out of no where yotsuba appeared.
