Idiot on the surface, Genius in the shadow

chapter 5

I woke up. It's 6:25 in the clock. I guess I got up 5 minutes early. But it's good. After all that happened this week, I can finally sleep peacefully. Well, it doesn't matter anymore. So I got fresh and took my breakfast. I can cook a bit, but I think I improved a lot, if I say to myself.

After finishing breakfast, I started for the class. Well, the exam is over. So we all are relaxed. I checked the phone. I still have some time left. So I was walking slowly. Suddenly, I saw a girl with long strawberry hair. Shit, it's her. I tried to walk past her. I heard her talking with someone on her phone. Well, I don't want to get involved with her. Kiyone should do it. Wait, did I just call her by her first name? Never mind. I should be fast.

The class was excited. I saw people surrounding Horikita, Sudo, Sakura. They asked how they did it. At my surprise, I saw Sakura was able to answer without being embressed. That's something. Then the class started. The students seem to be deciplined so they don't make commotion when the class is ongoing. The teacher said about the expellation of the C class students. Also our promotion to class C. I saw a bit of smile in her face. I think it's the first time she is genuinely smiling. Everyone was surprised to hear that. Now I really want to take a break from supporting the class. But it seems luck wasn't on my side.

Timeskip:a week later
It was after a week or so. In the time of lunch break. I was having my lunch with Sudo when I saw Karuizawa walk out. At first, I overlooked it, but then I saw some girls, likely from 1-D, was following her. I spotted them before. I saw them a few times before. Not the ones from the original story. I wonder what happened that she raised that flag.

I followed them to a quiet area. They were somehow pursuing her, or she was there to meet someone. But that doesn't matter. The girls from class C already surrounded her. This is bad.

Karuizawa: Who are you, and why are you surrounding me?
Girl a: you already forgot what you did in the library that day?
Karuizawa: What are you talking about? I don't know anything.
Girl b: What? You already forgot what you did to Rika in the library? Didn't you push her down ?
Girl C: Are you saying what we saw was a lie?
Karuizawa: I don't know anything. Let me go.

Well, things will get out of hands if I stay there. I called someone. I think it's time to see how much she progressed.

In like a minute or two, I felt someone behind me. I was keeping eyes on them just in case something bad happenes. I turned around and saw Sakura there. "Yo." I said. "You came here fast. "She looked at me, "well, you said that you want me to handle something. "I showed her the situation. She watched it for a bit. Then she looked at me. "Um... I don't think I can do it. Sorry." "Don't worry. Just give it a go. If they try to do anything, I'll stop them." I placed my hand on her shoulder. She looked at me. "I'll try my best." She said with a determined look.

One of the girls was grabbing her hair. And another one was grabbing her hand. Then, the last one walked up to her face. "Not so tough now, are you?" Saying this, she slapped her. I just took a quick video. "Now go." I said, pushing Sakura.

"Hey, stop it." Sakura said with a cold voice. It was really something. Even I felt a chill flowing down my spine. I only saw anime girls doing this a couple of times. I never saw any girl speak like that in real life. I did teach her to maintain a cold voice during this kind of situation, but damn. It was beyond my imagination. The girls looked behind. They saw Sakura. "What did you say?" One of them shouted. "You didn't hear me? Are you deaf?" Sakura said. Ok shit, that's some character development. They looked at her. First, they got surprised. Then they just walked towards her. "You think you can stand a chance against us?" Saying that, one girl raised her hand to slap her. She just looked for a moment and then grabbed the hand. Then she just moved a little and pinned her in the wall. "Ouch!" The girl streamed in pain. Then she merely doughed the hits from them and struck in their stomach. In only one minute, they were all in the ground, laying in pain. Sakura then walked towards Karuizawa and asked, "Are you OK?" Karuizawa nodded. Sakura held her hand and helped her get off the ground. Then she looked at the class C students and said," Don't try to do something this stupid again." And walked off with Karuizawa. Okay then, I also should take my leave.
