EP.31 Next time

We later took a group sticker picture to keep it as a souvenir and went to the bowling alley.

There, the president and I were going to team up by drawing lots, and the Akagi siblings were a team.

It was quite a fierce battle, but in the end, the Akagi siblings won, so the president and I paid for the karaoke.

Because it was our first-time playing bowling for both of us.

After that, we went to karaoke and sang alternately for about two hours.

What was slightly surprising here was the presidents singing skills high level.

When I asked her how, she said she learned it as a basic skill when she was young.

Basically, it was omnipotent, as expected from the daughter of a noble family.

After staying at the karaoke like that, it was already 6 p.m.

We ate ramen around 3 p.m. and had been playing since then.

It was almost sunset time, so when I asked what we should do for dinner, after coming out of Nakano Broadway, Minami suddenly gave an idea.

How about having a get-together at Yoosungs house for the first time?

Then the president opened her fan and laughed.

Thats a good suggestion. Minami. The last time we went to Kim Yoo-sungs house was last year.

The vice-president, who was listening to what they were saying next to him, also agreed by pushing up his glasses.

I think its okay, too. Well have to eat dinner anyway.

When the three peoples opinions were unified like this, it naturally became a flow to eat at my house.

When I appeared to hesitate, the president naturally pulled a black card out of the fan.

Of course, I dont want to get it for free like last time. Ill pay the right price this time.

No, I wasnt worried about that. Just, I thought my mother would be surprised if I suddenly took my friends.

Will it be difficult?

The president looked at me with pitiful eyes as she said so.

Honestly, when she looked at me with these eyes, how could I say no?

I asked them for their understanding and called my mother.

What? Of course, you can. Bring them all!

Mrs. Lee Mi-jas generous permission seemed to have been heard around even if it was not in speaker mode.

When the group dinner was decided, Minami immediately called seomeone, and soon after, the limousine we saw was brought in front of us.

I was on my way to the limousine when I asked a question.

By the way, what did the vice-president and Minami ride to come here?

Then the vice-president flinched and opened his mouth.

You mean us?

We came here by taxi. Im not used to the subway.

Well, both of them said they used to serve the president, so they rarely took the subway.

When all four of us got on board, the limousine began to glide out of the darkened street.

A lot of things happened, but in the end todays final destination was my house.

***

Welcome!

When I opened the door and entered the store, my mother, who was in the hall, welcomed me with a bright smile.

Because I called in advance before I came, side dishes were already set on the table.

Oh my, its been a while. Mother.

Its been a while for you, too.

When the president naturally stepped forward and greeted her, my mother was very happy and held her hands.

It may have been a coincidence, but my mother and the presidents names were all the same except for one letter.

Lee Mi-ja and Saionji Kumiko1Lee Mi-ja () and Saionji Kumiko () are both written with the Japanese kanji and the one which differ are and , the one meant with except for one letter..

Maybe it was because of that, that the two of them had quite a good chemistry.

Please eat slowly vice-president. I feel like someone is chasing me.

Even if he was criticized like that, the speed at which the vice-president ate meat did not decrease.

Because of this, I was constantly putting meat on the grill.

The president, who was looking closely at me, suddenly made a wrap and gave it to me.

Uh, I can wrap it up.

You keep saying that, but you dont eat.

As she said that, I had to eat it when she gave it to me again.

When I ate the wrap, the president asked with a nervous look.

How is it?

I chewed up everything in my mouth and raised my thumb.

Its delicious.

Thats when she laughed shyly.

Ohoh, of course. Im the one who made it.

For the first time in a long time, the student council spent a pleasant night together.

***

Goodbye!

Come again~

Saionji Kumiko and the Akagi siblings left the store, receiving a farewell from Kim Yoo-sung and his mother.

The sky was already dark.

Considering that she went to Asakusa from the early morning, she was outside almost all day.

Although her body was tired, Saionji Kumiko felt that something warm remained in her heart.

On the way back to the mansion by car, Shinjiro Akagi and Minami Akagi, who sat on the opposite seat of the limousine, bowed their heads at the same time.

Im sorry, miss. We should have left you in the middle.

I was so focused on playing that I couldnt get out of it.

At the sincere apology of the two, Saionji Kumiko shook her head with a subtle smile around her mouth.

No, Im fine. Im already satisfied enough for today.

Saying so, Kumiko recalled what happened today.

She waited for someone for the first time in her life, ate ice cream with Kim Yoo-sung in Asakusa, they laughed and chatted with each other while choosing things, and she showed herself wearing a kimono to Kim Yoo-sung who told her that she was beautiful.

It wasnt just that.

Its been a long time since we spend time together like this, so I recalled a lot of old memories.

The student council basically revolved around Saionji Kumiko.

It was quite natural, but she felt strange loneliness from time to time.

Because she thought they didnt treat her like they used to.

But it was all an illusion.

It was fun to find the wrong picture with Minami today. It was fun to play a game called bowling, and it was a good memory to go make sticker photos and to sing together at the karaoke.

The date with her beloved Kim Yoo-sung was good, but todays day spent in a group under the name of the student council meant more than that.

Thank you for always being with me. Shinjiro and Minami. I will always be thankful.

When Saionji Kumiko lowered her head slightly as she said so, the two became disconsolate.

Ill follow you for the rest of my life.

Miss.

When a strangely warm atmosphere flowed, Saionji Kumiko, who could not overcome the awkwardness, said while clearing her throat.

Anyway, Im satisfied with this much for today. This wont be my last chance. Of course, youre going to help me, right?

Then the two nodded at the same time.

Of course!

Sure.

The first night of such a memorable Golden Week ended with three people, once again, consolidating their ties.
