AYANOKOJI POV

Me {It's been a month and a half since the entrance ceremony. I spent everyday carefree}

Horikita [Excuse me, can you hear me? Is your head ok?]

Me {She flicked my forehead, and I rubbed it in pain}

Horikita [Huh, you don't have a fever]

Me [I don't, I was just lost in thought]

Horikita [So, Mr. Strategist. What should I do?]

Me [Firs——]

Horikita [Well of course, we need to persuade Sudo-Kun and the others to join our study group again. And to do that we need you to grovel at your feet, and beg them to join]

Me [Why do I have to do that...? In the first place, you were the reason there was a fight]

Horikita [The true reason is that they didn't want to study. Don't mistake that]

Me {Does she even want to help them?}

Horikita [It's impossible to gather them again without Kushida-san's help. You know that, right?]

Me [I know, I guess we are going to make some sacrifices]

Horikita [Alright, go and quickly get her to work with us]

Me [Me?]

Horikita [Who else? You formed a contract with me. Since you agreed to be my workhorse until we reach class A]

Me [I don't remember making a contract with you]

Horikita [Here, look at this written contract]

Me {Wow. It even had my name and seal}

Horikita [Now go.]

Me {Giving up, I walked away from her. Horikita finished tiding up her desk and faced Kushida}

Horikita [Kushida-san. I want to talk with you. If possible, do you want to eat lunch together?]

Kushida [Lunch? It's strange to be invited by Horikita-San, but sure!]

Me {After Kushida agreed. We walked towards the most popular cafe in the school, Pallet}

Me {It's also the place where Horikita got mad at us because we made up a lie}

Me {Horikita payed for Kushida's drink. And I had to pay for my own}

Kushida [Thanks Horikita-san. What did you want to talk about?]

Horikita [I'm making a study group to help Sudo-kun. Can you help us one more time?]

Kushida [Who are you doing it for? Is it for Sudo-Kun?]

Horikita [No, this is for me]

Kushida [Is that so... Horikita-San, like usual, acts for yourself, huh]

Horikita [Then, you're not going to help your friends?]

Kushida [Of course not! I'll help out our classmates]

Horikita [Good]

Kushida [Ayanokoji-kun, are you also aiming for class A?]

Horikita [Yes. He is my assistant in reaching class A]

Me {What about my freedom. I wish I was in American, there I'll have rights}

Kushida [Okay, then I'll get to it right now!]
