Hikigaya's Route to Senior High Is Not Normal, As I Expected

Kiyotaka's POV

...

On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me... One class that was clearly full of delinquents and troublemakers.

Oh wait... it was only the second day of school...

The first day of school, despite it being hectic and full of new things, was only half long. Classes began at 9am, and ended at 2pm. However, classes on the first day ended only at 10:30am, and counting the beginning of the ceremony, it ended at 11am.

Therefore, today was the first full day of class, or the second day of school.

And many students were surprised, or even disappointed by the friendly vibe the school gave. Most likely they were all accustomed to being directed to rules, and however strict they were, they would have to follow.

Why may I be asking and assuming this?

Well, it's simple. People are most likely going to act out erratically when they realize they are suddenly free.

Kiyotaka looked on as the teachers didn't seem to be grilling them. Even when Sudou, the tall redhead with clear anger issues, would spend most of his time falling asleep, Sae didn't even bat an eye towards him.

Not even when Ike was being a nuisance, or Yamauchi was just annoying, Sae didn't say anything regarding their behaviour, or poor.

While it was up to the individual student to choose whether he or she wanted to listen in lass.

But still, was this the treatment and dedication many teachers gave to them, interacting with them once compulsory education was left behind?

Kiyotaka was intrigued, as the atmosphere was relaxed. It was soon lunchtime, and it seemed that many of the students had already made strong connections. It made sense, as new acquaintances became fast friends, and fast friends became eating buddies.

Kiyotaka watched as some of these new friends began to leave to get some food. As for Kiyotaka himself, he knew he wouldn't really have that luxury of making fast friends due to his mess up during his introduction.

He had stumbled, made a fool of himself, and could even see Ike and Yamauchi giving him a degrading laugh. Kiyotake knew what his place was going to be, and sadly, he was right.

He felt a bit envious of them, really wishing he could befriend someone in this new class.

As if nature wanted to degrade or make Kiyotaka suffer more, he heard a small laugh, a derisive laughter.

"How pathetic." Kiyotaka silently groaned but steeled himself as he turned to the source of that female voice. However, he steeled himself and turned to face the black-haired woman, whom he had learned prior that her name was Horikita Suzune.

"What? What is pathetic?" Kiyotaka asked Suzune with a bit of confusion. In truth, he really didn't want to be involved with such a demoralized conversation. Why couldn't she just leave him to suffer alone?

"I want someone to invite me along, I want to eat with someone! Your thoughts are like an open book," Suzune said in response to Kiyotaka's confused questions.

Kiyotaka sighed before asking, "Since when did you be so retorting? You didn't seem like the kind of girl to do that."

This seemed to earn him a small glare, as Kiyotaka then sighed and brought up another point. "But regardless, aren't you alone as well?"
