CH 55

Once again, I couldn’t stop opening my mouth…

I see it over and over again. It’s not a house anymore. It’s a palace.

This is exactly what people mean when they say that the world of drama exists in real life.

This is the second time ….. Or maybe it’s the first time with my real body. Either way, I can’t describe the house too well because it’s too amazing.

At any rate, I left her house as if I was running away because I couldn’t read what had happened this time.

I can’t breathe. I’m glad she didn’t find me. Well, I’d have been all right even if she had found me.

I mean, why was I kidnapped in the first place? That’s the first thing that doesn’t make sense to me. I was lost in this house.

Well, there are too many things to think about. First of all, was there really a meeting of the festival committee today?

I guess there wasn’t. This is another lie of Sayaka’s that I don’t understand.

What is this lie? I was in a rather serious hurry because the teacher of the committee was scary…

But I see. It’s already…. the school festival.

Yeah, I don’t have any good memories when I think back. Last year, I only remembered being with Jinguuji and Rem. I remember that it was just a painful time for me to keep watching guys and girls making out while eating yakisoba and takoyaki and to listen to their backbiting and abusive words next to each other.

Anyway, it’s that time of the year again…

As I recall, the last year’s contest winners hugged or embraced each other for a long time in front of the whole school without any shame, though I remembered it immediately because it had a strong impact.

I heard someone say that it is an unspoken rule that the contest winner has to show such lovey-dovey behavior every year… Really, I don’t know how people do it in front of others.

In particular, there is a rumor that a local TV crew filmed our school festival a few years ago, and the winning couple even kissed in front of everyone, though I don’t know if they did that from the excessive excitement or what.

The couple got married as they grew up.

In fact, because of such a strange custom, only couples are allowed to participate in the event. Anyone can enter the contest as long as they are a couple.

Therefore, the invitation to participate in the contest entry is like a confession of love, and many couples are born during this period. In short, it is a good opportunity for them to confess their feelings. The contest is just the right trigger.

But still. What about the school? It’s not a good idea in terms of public morals. What’s with the tacit approval?

Well, it doesn’t matter to me anyway. 　

Not that it’s any of my business… There’s a rumor going around that a TV crew will be filming at the festival again this year.

Moreover, there are some major changes in the rules this year, which may or may not upgrade the festival in various ways…

Well, it has nothing to do with me.

I…think so.

But, yeah… I’ll have to listen to their complaints and backbiting endlessly next to me again this year…

Well, anyway, it’s depressing.

School cultural festival…
