CH 15

When I turned around, I saw Azusa Saotome riding a scooter bike and wearing a semi-jet type helmet with a smokeshield.

“So, a scooter? And it’s got three wheels and pink plates.”

“Good morning, Oojirou-kun and Lydia-san. Yes, this is my beloved Volcity 125. It’s brand new!~”

“You got your license, Saotome?”

“Yeah, a week ago, you know.”

The driver’s license is shown to me.

For some reason, there was a picture of a black-haired Saotome on the screen and sure enough, there was a “moped” and a “standard motorcycle (small)”. And there was also a small special license. I’m sure she’ s trying to get a full driver’s license.

But I’m jealous. I want to ride a motorcycle too.

“I don’t know how you got that kind of money and forgiveness from …… Yeah, that makes sense.”

“Forgiveness or not, I got the money on my own. I’ll tell you more about it another time. So, I was wondering, do you want a ride in the back?　We can ride together.”

“You know, Saotome. I do know a little bit about road traffic laws. Riding with two people is supposed to be banned for a year.”

“Ah! I’m sorry I forgot.”

Saotome sticks out her tongue and fools around.

I didn’t think she was serious.

Please follow the laws properly.

“I mean, we’re on foot and we’re going to be late. You go ahead.”

“All right. See you both later.”

With the throttle buzzing, Saotome is off and on her way. It’s cool to see a high school girl on a motorcycle.

“Oojirou, is that the kind of girl you want?”

“It’s not every day you get a rare high school girl like that and she’s the head of the Disciplinary Committee. “

” Oh, well, maybe I’ll get my license too.”

“No, I’ll get my license one of these days. If I get my license, I’ll take Lida in the back.”

“That’s great! I’m looking forward to it.”

Lida laughed happily and hummed as she walked on. When someone expects something from you like that, it really motivates you. All right, I’ll work hard and save up some money.

–Akizakura Academy—

When I entered the classroom with Lida, we were the center of attention at once. Even though they were staring at us, it wasn’t …… me. They were all looking at Lida, who was standing next to me. In the midst of all this, Tanahashi, that pick-up guy, approaches me.

“Hello, Lydia. Good morning.”

“Доброе утро.” (Good morning)

“Eh.”

“Пока.” (Bye)

Lida tugs on my hand, smoothing out Tanahashi in Russian, and we head to the back of the classroom. There is me, and next to me is Lida.

We take our seats and I whisper in her ear.

“Why are you speaking Russian?”

“I’m only interested in Oojirou and I’ve decided that I can only understand a little Japanese.”

“… Seriously?”

Right after that, the bell rang.

Lida kept looking at me and smiling. Apparently, she was doing it for me

A little while later, HR (homeroom) began, and a small, neatly folded note came flying in. It seemed to be from Lida.

When I checked the contents of the note…

There was a kiss mark on it.

And it said ‘Хочу, чтобы ты меня поцеловал’. She knew that I couldn’t read Russian. …… Oh, I get it.

I could understand this by using the kiss marks. I’m sure it meant, “I want you to kiss me.”
