Supporting High School Student Shaves

“Because I hate it…..”

“Hey, you two! Don’t just keep chatting by yourselves, we are going to start soon so get ready!”

“Ahh, seriously. We will finish this conversation after the shooting so don’t go home by yourself okay!?”

“I understand but…..I have always walked you home so I won’t leave first you know?”

“That’s exactly why I’m saying that to you now!”

I don’t really get it but it seems that she got angry. For the time being, I have to change my clothes and get my hair done since I didn’t have time to do it today. So, I went into the changing room.

“Hello, Kousei-kun. It’s been a long time, isn’t it? I will set your hair later so can you change into this?”

Once inside, the makeup artist was already waiting for me. I was given a change of clothes immediately since we are pressing for time.

“Hello. I was planning to come back next week so today is a little earlier than I expected but there has been a lot happening at school lately so it really felt like a long time to me too.”

“Something happened to you at school?………did everyone at your school finally find out?”

“Why does everyone say the same thing when I say something happened to me at school I wonder…….well, it really was something along that line though.”

I felt the surprise coming from him when I said that. The reason I used the word felt was that right now we can’t see each other with the partition between us and we can only hear each other’s voice.

I don’t know if I should be pleased that even a makeup artist thought that it is impossible to connect Hiura Seiya and Kamishiro Kousei together or the fact that I can be treated as a completely different person with just one hairstyle.

“….by the way, can you tell me how you got found out? It might be helpful in the future you see.”

“I don’t think that it will be any help but…..if I have to repeat what I told Suzuka then I have to start when I helped a girl from my class who was being picked up by a group of playboys on my way back from my last job.”

“What a coincidence. And I thought that even if Kousei-kun saw someone getting picked up, you wouldn’t go help too………maybe, the girl that was being picked up was very cute?”

Kousei to me is my ideal of a popular guy so it is more obvious to me that he would go help a person in trouble though……Did makeup artist-san have that kind of image of me?

Well, that’s fine……let’s leave that aside. But if I think real good about it, it was really a big coincidence that the person I ended up helping was my classmate.

“She is a cute girl but I would help regardless of who she is, you know. Kamishiro Kousei is someone who moves for the people after all.”

“Kind of like an ideal? Leaving that aside…..how did you end up getting found out?”

“Ahh, it’s because I didn’t change the bag I was carrying and the bento I had with me when I helped her. Ah, also, it seems that one of the causes is also my voice but I think that the main offender is the fact that we are from the same class.”

“That’s why she managed to connect Hiura-kun to Kamishiro Kousei and spread it to everybody huh?”

“Nn? No, she didn’t really tell anyone. I think that she is the only one who knows it.”

“Eh? Really? If it was me I think that I would tell it to a lot of people though…….”

Come to think of it, it seems that Eihashi-san didn’t talk about the fact that I am Kamishiro Kousei to anyone other than Ichinose-san. I practically gave her the opportunity to talk to Ichinose-san so why didn’t she?

If she only tells it to the people she thinks of as a true friend then there’s no reason that she wouldn’t talk to Ichinose-san…..

“Well, we ended up doing a lot of things together like sharing books and having a takoyaki party together you know……Eh? What kind of motif are today’s clothes?”

“We are shooting on a summer date theme today I think? Hmm…..I thought that it would suit Kousei-kun but is it no good? Can you show me after you changed?”

I left the changing room. I think that it probably suits me but what should I say, I think there’s a point that’s a no-go for me.

“I see…….got it now…….can I shave it?”

“I’m always wearing short sleeves so I’ve treated my arms but I didn’t touch my legs since I am always wearing long pants. Well, I was planning to shave it later so please do it.”

“Right…..you can’t have a model showing their legs without telling them in advance after all. Since women also have leg hairs, it would be impossible to ask a man like Kousei-kun to always have clean legs after all.”

“The hairs on my arms are very thin but my leg hairs are very thick you see.”

“Yup……sorry to say this but, it is a little surprising……..”

After applying a depilatory cream which I don’t know why he has one on hand, he started shaving my legs when they became properly slippery. I have never used cream myself so I was a little surprised at how smooth my legs became.

Next time I go shopping, I will make sure to buy this cream.

–

“Seiya-kun, you took a long time to prepare today huh?”

“Well, I didn’t know that I have to wear shorts today so I didn’t shave my legs beforehand.”

“I don’t really mind those hairs but….. having hairy legs indeed makes it feel like seeing a middle-aged man going to the beach huh.”

“I heard that the refreshing type is in trend lately you know? It seems that you can’t give off that feeling if you have leg hairs too.”

Even the advertisements on a certain famous video site also have those annoying ads that really recommend hair removal products. I am so tired of seeing the one that advertises how you can be popular or how you can talk to a cute girl at your company just by shaving.

Also, there were those shitty weight-loss ads that go on for 5 to 10 minutes too…..wait, enough of that.

“Well, let’s get this shooting done. You have something to talk to me about afterward right?”

“Th, That’s right……well, let’s go.”

Although it is only a very short distance away, we head to the studio together. This time the studio background is made with the image of summer.

“Alright, we are starting! Kousei-kun acts like you are escorting Asuka-chan okay!”

“Like this?”

“Okay!”
