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

"As a human being, anger is a part of our mind. Irritation also part of our mind. But you can do – anger come, go. Never keep in your sort of – inner world, then create a lot of suspicion, a lot of distrust, a lot of negative things, more worry." – Dalai Lama

...

Hachiman's POV (Please note this is the weekend before the third week of school).

...

"Hey, hey! Do you want to go do karaoke?"

"Yes! Let's go!"

Hachiman watched as the class he was in continued to function as if there was no worry in the world.

While he didn't want to care he knew it would be best he just let them do whatever. It was best to remain away from the status quo, and instead accept that change is something everyone must go for.

Right now, it was the end of class on Friday, and Hachiman was beginning to pick his stuff to head to the library. He wasn't really the type to hang around in class, but considering he wanted to speak to Sae a bit more regarding his thoughts, he remained a bit behind.

But then again, when Hachiman thought about it, he quickly realized that it was somewhat futile. All Sae would do is just comment on the fact Hachiman refused to tell any of the class.

Perhaps he was being rude, it was a necessary lesson that had to be taught for the entire class. Even if he was theoretically missing one piece of the puzzle for everything, he would find it out. It was just how he worked he felt.

Even if Sae did her best to not reveal anything, that wouldn't stop Hachiman from trying regardless. All the while this occurred, Hachiman was approached by two specific people.

To the surprise of Hachiman, he didn't know any of them, and as he looked up to see them, one of them began to speak.

"Hey, my name is Yousuke Hirata, but you can call me Yousuke if you want to." Yousuke spoke, clearly eying Hachiman since class ended. Considering he was one of the remaining students left, and since Yousuke had a girl next to him, many of the girls had left him alone this time.

As for the boy Hachiman had seen, Yousuke seemed to be somewhat like him in build. If anything, Yousuke was like a brighter more cheerful version of Hachiman. The only thing Hachiman could deduce the difference between Yousuke and Hachiman, was that Hachiman had black hair, while also being slightly taller than Yousuke when he wasn't slouching.

In the meantime, he was accompanied by a girl who seemed somewhat short. She seemed to be around 5'1" in height. She had waist-length blond hair that was tied in a ponytail. She has purple eyes, and her uniform was different than the standard design.

She had a light blue dress shir alongside the red school blazer was tied up. She had rolled her sleeves up and a short white skirt. Overall, she seemed somewhat fashionable, but aside from that, Hachiman didn't see anything noteworthy to comment about her overall.

"Come on, say your name." Yousuke commented to the girl on her phone before she sighed.

"Karuizawa." The girl mumbled, clearly not caring for who she was meeting. If anything, Yousuke seemed more interested in speaking to Hachiman.

"Is there something you need?" Hachiman asked Yousuke who seemed a bit confused.

"Um, what do I call you? I don't even know your name. I don't think I've seen you at the entrance ceremony or beginning classes?" Yousuke eyed Hachiman with a bit of confusion.
