「Including the student council, third-year volunteers are just starting to plan and make advance preparations for the event. It is something we do every year, so it should not be too much trouble, though.」
「At most, we only have to make sure that there is no unfairness in the group draws. Other than that, I guess the day of the event will be challenging one way or another.」
「Depending on the location, it is a regular event for students from other schools who skip school to come over, aim for the boys, and brawl with the girls in charge of security, after all.」
They were talking about it calmly, but Yuu thought to himself: The heck is that, so scary.
「After that will be the ball game tournament in June, I guess.」
「Ball game tournament… is it?」
Yuu tilted his head.
He felt like he had heard about it during the school life orientation, or perhaps he had not, his memory was a little hazy.
「Ah, I see. All the girls participate, but it is voluntary for the boys, after all. Though, those who actually participate in the tournament or cheer for their team are only a part of the third-year boys, while none of the first- and second-year boys do.」
「So that's how it is. What a waste.」
「A waste?」
「Yes, it is. After continuously participating in the social events in April and May, we shouldn't miss the opportunity to deepen our friendship in June as well.」
「Hmm. I guess we can see it that way, too, huh….」
Sayaka put her hand on her chin and fell into thought.
As for Yuu, he was only speaking from his memories of the interclass ball game tournament held during his high school days, which was more than 20 years ago.
That was because he remembered that it was not only the kids who were good at sports, but most of them were excited to support their classes.
「It may be impossible to get all of them to participate, but like this week's social event, we can assign a group of about six boys to each girls class, where they are free to participate as players, and if that's too much for them, they can support them by cheering on them or something, which will allow them to grow accustomed to girls since the practice period.」
「The girls, too, would probably work harder if they have boys with them.」
「Yes! That's for sure! I bet the event will turn into an exciting one!」
Riko and Eimi were also positive about the idea.
「Hmm. That might be a good idea. From the beginning, I have been stuck in the stereotype that boys would be unmotivated about it, but after talking with you like this, Hirose-kun, I have gotten some new understandings about boys. Thank you. I appreciate it.」
「No at all, you're welcome.」
As for Yuu, he was also happy to be thanked by Sayaka.
Once again, he was asked to give his unreserved opinion as a male student about the school events organized by the student council from now on.
As far as Yuu was concerned, he could not ask for anything better either. Since I'm participating in it, I'd like to actively get involved in it; so he thought.
Of course, part of it was because he wanted to spend more time with Sayaka.
Before they knew it, an hour had passed and Eimi said she was going to take him to the second school building.
As for Yuu, he did not mind going back alone, but it was not a bad idea to walk around while talking with an endlessly cheerful girl like her.
With her twin-tail hair swaying as she hummed some melody, Eimi went down the stairs first.
Then, standing on the landing, she looked back at Yuu and smiled.
「Say, Hirose-kun….」
「Yes?」
「Have you fallen for Saaya-senpai?」
「Wut?!」
It was so sudden that Yuu could only flap his mouth open and close, no words coming out.
「Well~, that's just what my womanly intuition tells me, though. I mean, Hirose-kun, you can talk normally even if the other party is a girl, right? But only when you talk with Saaya-senpai, you're slightly different, or like….」
It was probably inevitable even if he was seen as such.
Even though among boys in this world, Yuu was unusually unafraid of girls, Sayaka was an exception.
To begin with, he was not someone with so much experience that he could hide his own affection for others.
「W, well, umm…」
「But too bad! Saaya-senpai already has a fiancé.」
「Huh?!」
「Saaya-senpai is the daughter of the president of that Komatsu Group. And then, it's said that she already has a fiancé, who was chosen by her parents back when she was in middle school.」
「N, no way….」
Even back in his former world, there was a famous forklift company called Komatsu.
