Chapter 4

    "Hello, si-...r?"

    "..."

    "Y-You okay? You look like you've seen a ghost."

    "..."

    "...Oh. It's because of yesterday, huh."

    "..."

    "A-Ahem! Sir. I know she's a queen, but-! I think out of everyone here, you have the best chance to get her!"

    "..."

    Fat chance. If the athletes can't get her, there's no way I can.

    "...Hey, sir. You know it doesn't have to be her, right?"

    "...?"

    *Scoot!*

    "Think about it. There's all these other girls out there. If on the off chance she rejects you, you can just ask someone else."

    "...No..."

    "..."

    "It... has to be her. But I know I'm going to get rejected if I try. *Sniff!*"

    "..."

    *Pat.*

    "Heh. Alright. I got your back."

    Huh?

    "W-What do you mean by that?"

    Shawn gave a thumbs up.

    "Just trust me. As I promised before, I'm going to do everything in my power to make you king."

    "Huh?"

    Shawn ignored me as he glanced towards the door.

    "The first thing we need to do is wait for that door to open."

    Why won't he-?

    *Sliide!*

    "..."

    "Score."

    The shining beauty? Just what is Shawn planning to do?

    "Come with me for a second."

    Huh?

    *Tmp!*

    "Hey, Hinako-san!"

    "...?"

    "A wonderful morning, isn't it? Ahaha!"

    T-This is so awkward.

    "...You're... in my English class, right?"

    "Exacta! Glad you remember!"

    "...?"

    The shining beauty was wearing her usual outfit. A blue sweater, navy trench coat, black skirt, stockings, and a white turtleneck. Despite having a nickname like the shining beauty, she didn't show any bit of her skin. Unlike most girls.

    "So you see!"

    "Mmf?!"

    Shawn got my head in a headlock and forced me to face the shining beauty.

    "This man right here is Hayake Sunao! My best friend!"

    "W-Wait, Shawn! What are you-?!"

    "...Nice to meet you."

    "Hmm?"

    I know you were expecting a better reaction, but c'mon, Shawn! You can't just introduce me like this out of the blue! And what does this have to do with Okasawa?! I thought you were supposed to be helping me!
