"Yoshii, go to the infirmary."
This line was said to me 7 times during morning lessons. Is it really strange that I'm taking notes seriously?
"Really, you guys are way too rude..."
I have to get an improvement of at least 20 marks in the upcoming end-of-term exams, or else things will be really bad (wouldn't that be the case when my sister's at home?) I had such an idea and studied more seriously than usual...you don't have to be that amazed.
I was really sad that the teachers would feel like this as I put away my textbooks and notes from the 4th period. Just when I was about to have lunch, Minami suddenly came to my seat.
"Aki, what happened? You weren't normal since this morning."
Minami's voice really showed concern. I thought that she would hate me for what happened then. But if it's like what Yuuji and the rest said, Minami reverted back to her old attitude.
"Nothing happened to me. It's just that I feel that I need to work harder."
"Aki, lift your head. I have to check whether you have a fever or not."
"Why is it that everyone thinks that I'm sick when I just want to study hard..."
Minami still reached her hand over as I felt really bothered. She must be trying to touch my forehead and see if I have a fever. Really, aren't you guys way too concerned-
"Ugh, this won't do!"
"WAH!"
As I suddenly jumped back, Minami couldn't help but shriek.
"Oi! What's with that reaction! It's rare enough for me to see whether you have a fever!"
"So, sorry! There're a whole lot of reasons..."
If it were Minami's sister Hazuki-chan doing this, I don't think there'll be too much of an afterthought. But if nee-san saw Minami touching my head to see if I have a fever, I guess it would fall under the definition of 'Illicit Sexual Relationships', right? In that case, my points may be deducted by 150. If nee-san knows about it, my happy life of living alone will be even more distant from me. It's because I don't know where a certain someone might be hiding that I have to eliminate all possibilities of danger.
"Reasons? What do you mean?"
Minami doesn't understand my frustrations right now as she stared at me in a puzzled manner.
This is bad. If I explain everything to her, I won't be able to hide the fact that my sister's around. Looks like I have to change the topic.
"Uu...erm...o, oh ya, let's have lunch instead of talking about this! Lunch break will soon be over!"
I hurriedly took out my lunchbox that I prepared from my bag and put it on the table. The way I changed the topic might be a little forced, but Minami will start taking out her lunch, I guess?
This was what I expected, but,
"Eh!? Aki, you brought a self-made bento? What happened?"
Unexpectedly, this made Minami even more suspicious.
"Ehh!? Akihisa-kun brought a bento?"
For some reason, Himeji-san came running over and showed a shocked look.
"Eh, you two don't have to be so surprised...I'm human here, and I may die if I don't get nutrition once in a while."
Even though I say that, I'll spend all my money whenever I get my living expenses.
