Chapter Three - Beating Regret, Heartless Sorrow
Daily Life

I let out a yawn as I slowly sat up in bed.

The morning announcement had just played, signaling that it was time for me to finally get up.

I did my usual routine of getting ready for the day before beginning to make my way to the dining hall for the normal breakfast meeting.

Opening the doors to the dining hall, I saw the normal loud scene of chatter and conversation amongst everyone.

"Oh look! The greatest person here has arrived! It's Ku!" Mizuki announced.

"Oh, morning everyone!" I said.

Everyone proceeded to greet me as I took a seat between Mizuki and Ryuto after Mizuki begging me to sit next to her. The atmosphere in the room was very cheerful, as people we talking among themselves as Toshiro brought out breakfast.

"Everyone seems happy..."

"Oh, don't worry! It's not like we forgot about what happened yesterday, " Arashi replied.

"We just realized that Arisu and Akito wouldn't want us to be depressed or to hang our heads low. Instead, we all decided that we were going to be hopeful and positive, " Haru explained.

"Yeah! And we've added to the memorial in the fitness suite!" Tama exclaimed.

"Oh yeah! I managed to snag Arisu's bow and Akito's blueprints before Monokuma could get his hands on them! Right now, they're up in the fitness suite with all the other stuff,"

"That's great!" I smiled.

Afterward, the conversation seemed to change the topic to a lighter tone.

"Oi, computer nerd!"

"Hm?"

"Ya know if all you're gonna eat are those chips and soda then your probably gonna turn out to be fat and disgusting, " Reina perked up.

"Whatever. They taste great. Besides, the soda keeps me from falling asleep on my keyboard..." Ryuto explained.

"Dude, you just gotta have a good work out routine! Along with some protein and-" Tama began.

"That already sounds like torture...I'll pass,"

"Hah! No wonder nobody was to date you! You're not even interested in exercise or anything!" Reina laughed.

"So? Before his killing game started spent more time raising my intimacy level with characters in dating sims then in real life. I'm not bothered, "

"Of course you did, you gaming freak," She rolled her eyes.

"I believe you should apologize Shitateya," Toshiro joined in.

"As if! I'm just telling the truth, he's a loser!"

"...However, I do agree with the fact that your diet is quite unhealthy, Gijustsu," He snatched the bag of chips out of Ryuto's hands.

"H-Hey!"

He quickly placed down a tray full of different foods. "Here. Instead of that, I've prepared a traditional Japanese breakfast with miso soup, steamed rice, grilled fish, and various other side dishes. But if you would prefer a more western breakfast, I could prepare some pancakes or some eggs,"
