Chapter 110: Another PE Class (1)

Today is Friday and that means another PE class with Class 3, the class where Himeko's little sister is. The schedule for it will always be every Tuesday and Friday. We'll be joining Class 4 during Tuesdays and Class 3 during Fridays.

Ah. I didn't go to their club despite the invitation by Hashimoto this Wednesday.

When I saw him in class earlier, he asked me why I didn't show up at their club yesterday. He mentioned how they prepared an original game for me and even Himeko's little sister was excited to play that. In the end, they played it by themselves and well, Hashimoto described how shitty the game was. It's on par with the board games made by that Game Creation Club(Temp) from a certain comedy manga series.

That sounds like a terrible club already if they keep on playing shitty games. But playing games as their club activity? I know some will enjoy that but not me.

Well, I was only looking for a leisure club so that works too.

I apologized for not coming and told him I will take a look later and this time I won't stood them up.

The act yesterday was more important than some other club after all. I took another step forward with Nami. My relationship with her now depends on whether I decide to tell her my history or not. Choosing the former will lead to an uncertain result but choosing the latter will probably close my chances to steal her.

With the act that happened yesterday, Nami's circle of friends put me on their radar. Though none of them approached me because of the favor we asked, I couldn't shake off the feeling that they kept on glancing at me.

I ignored those and let them stare, nothing's wrong with that. We're not acting right now so no matter how much they do that, I won't go to Nami and announce our relationship.

Instead, I put my focus on class and to the two beside me. Aya was still busy reading her new book but she will often initiate a conversation with me, discussing the book she was reading. 

I always showed that I'm interested in what she's reading which made her enthusiastic at sharing her insight about the book but since I don't have time to read a book, I'm often stumped at what she's talking about.

When that happens, she will patiently explain it to me. Aya really wanted me to enjoy the book with her. This adorable girl…

I still have Kana's written novel and I was still at chapter 1. I tried reading it during the train ride. Since that was something she will send for a contest, and without her permission, I couldn't show it to Aya. Instead, I told her that I am currently reading a novel and described to her what I read.

At times she would comment on the details that I haven't noticed. I noted those down to give to Kana. It might help her to polish her novel. I guess this way I could help these two on both ends. Helping Aya be more comfortable at conversations and helping Kana with her novel. Maybe soon, I could introduce them to each other. They're both shy, I wonder how will they interact with each other?

That's something to look forward to. I really want all of them to get along. Not just one or two, all of them.

Satsuki, on the other hand, was silent at her desk. This was the first impression I had on her during our first day in school. A silent beauty. But yeah, when she started mouthing off Sakuma, that image was shattered.

Only when those rumors and Sakuma's endless pestering to me did she show interest to her neighbor and starting from that, we ended up right on our current relationship now.

I just turned Sakuma's suspicion away from us so I'm restraining myself to give him more grounds for suspicion.

Instead, we talked to each other through Messenger, which we agreed to not reply immediately to avoid suspicion.

Satsuki thanked me for the encouragement I gave her yesterday. As it turns out, she did better at their last practice that her seniors praised her

She then told how Sakuma went to see her and mentioned me. She's wondering why I didn't come.

If it's about that guy, I honestly told her what happened and what we talked about which led to me changing my mind not to see her yesterday.

She gave me a complicated look from her seat when I mentioned what we discussed concerning her sister.

She's aware of what happened and when I told her that Sakuma might possibly be infatuated to her sister, she didn't deny it or it may be something she already noticed.

Just that, she still fell for him.

We couldn't discuss it further through this so she told me to drop the topic for now.

After that, Satsuki asked me about Nami. She already knew that I'm also trying to steal her, so I told her what went on. Not that detailed though. Just enough for her to get the gist of things.

And that earned me another hateful or jealous glare from her. Satsuki said she will be completely honest with me but of course, she won't always tell how she feels nor her opinion about me trying to steal another girl.

Since her heart was still longing for Sakuma, she probably thinks it's not right for her to voice out an objection.

As to what will happen when I completely replace that guy in her heart, will she start demanding me to stop making a move to other girls or will she accept it as well?

During the lunch break, I went to that empty clubroom where Nami and I spent our time practicing due to the urging of Imada, the one girl that's not in Ogawa's harem. Looks like Nami's circle of friends decided to give us time during lunch breaks so we could spend our time together. 

I bet Ogawa didn't see that coming. Now, even Nami's time during lunch will be spent with me.

When I arrived at that empty clubroom, Nami was already there, quietly waiting.

After what happened yesterday, it's kind of awkward to talk to her that soon but that was another chance for me so I took it. We're alone so I didn't need to put up a pretense around her. During that time I went next to her and we ate our lunch together.

Nami was back to her old self and we talked about what happened after our act ended. They walked home together and that's all Ogawa did. She mentioned that she at least wanted Ogawa to hold her hand but yeah, that's Ogawa, you know? He's probably not threatened enough from our act yesterday.

I just quietly listened to her mentioning her frustrations about him. And through that, I got a glimpse of what Nami really likes and why she was possibly drawn to me.

Ogawa was the one she initially liked but he lacked two qualities. The decisiveness and the courage to try and force things despite the risk. I have both of those qualities. From the way I did things, she became interested in me and now we arrived at this point where I could get to do what Ogawa couldn't with her.

I didn't voice it out to her and just listened until she finished talking. But that girl, she told her frustrations to someone who wanted to steal her. If I could guess what she's thinking then that was probably a hint for me, to not be like him about my decisions. I needed to be decisive on the thing she asked.

After that, we spent the remaining time together. Even if we're not acting, Nami didn't resist when I pulled her into my lap. I tried to kiss her again but she shook her head and stopped me so I settled for just feeling her whole body leaning onto me.

Well, she's already feeling comfortable in that position where she put all her weight on me while her head was resting on my shoulder.

I became a bit bolder by putting my hand on her thighs and felt it over her skirt. It's not as plump as Satsuki's but it's soft enough that I felt like I'll be satisfied rubbing it all day.

Nami only silently approved of me putting my hand there. That was me taking advantage of her and she seemed to like it so I started rubbing it as we continued our conversation.

I also told her about what happened after the act and what I did with Mori. Nami listened quietly and when I mentioned how I decided to give up on stealing Mori, she only gave me a curious glance before her eyes fell upon my hand that was rubbing her thighs.

Like me, she didn't voice out her thoughts about what I shared, she was even more concerned about what my hand was doing.

I don't know if she got excited from it but for the time being, that's all I could do. I'll slowly escalate it every time we were given time to be alone like this. From rubbing it indirectly then slipping my hand under her skirt to touch it directly.

As long as she didn't reject it, I'll be a bit bolder every passing day.

And at that moment, another silence and comfortable mood sprung up around us. We stayed like that for the remaining time that we were together.

I made sure not to force it too much on her. She might like someone who is forceful but too much will just put her off.

I embraced her tight and it somehow made me calm down as well.

When the end of the lunch break approached, I sneaked in a kiss on her cheeks before she stood up from my lap. That made her blush and she responded in kind. 

Nami really likes me. At one point, she also has to make up her mind if I ever decided to tell her my past.

Will she stay with Ogawa or will she break up with him and make our act real?

That's something only Nami knows. If she still decided to stay with Ogawa, I might become more forceful to her. Unlike Mori, she's not that devoted to Ogawa when she let me enter her life so I'm quite confident that I could steal her from him even without using those despicable methods. I won't postpone my plan to steal her.

Currently, we're now at the outdoor track and field which were often used by the Track and Field Club. The PE class has just started. Just by looking at the venue, the class today will involve running.

Well, after two PE classes and the last being that intense dodgeball, I guess this teacher found out that most of us have low stamina, I heard that someone from the other class also collapsed when it was their turn to play that dodgeball game.

"Hey! I told you all to fall in line! What are you still dawdling for?! In 10 seconds if you're still disorganized, I'll have you all do 20 laps without rest!"

The PE teacher shouted when she saw the other students still sitting lazily on the grass. Did they forget that this teacher is a discipline-freak?

Those of us who already lined up glared at those lousy ones who were still dawdling. This teacher also loves collective punishments so we ourselves have to discipline our classmates to not be implicated with their blunder.

Ten seconds quickly passed but it still took her half a minute before she turned around again and faced us. Saying 'ten seconds' was just something she used to scare us. There's no way we could be organized in ten seconds after all.

Her eyes scanned the crowd. Everyone was standing still and some even held their breath. I saw someone quietly turning purple from lack of air. Well, he survived it when the guy from his back tapped his shoulder to tell him that the teacher wasn't looking at him anymore.

Then I saw Himeko's little sister in the front row of their class, she still has that kind of luxurious and glamorous air around her, really an Ojou-sama. Himeko described her as strong but Hashimoto was talking about a different side of her at their club. Excited from playing a shitty board game?

Ah. Maybe that's her way to unwind. Well, I still don't know her that well and I decided to only focus on my current girls for now.

Looking at her sister, I suddenly missed Himeko. I'll go and see her later then.
