-BUNGAKU HIGHSCHOOL, TOKYO, JAPAN-
-8:04AM MONDAY, OCTOBER 31, 2016-
"Oh, good morning, Daikuhara-ku-eh!? What happened to you?" said Asano but he was shocked as Jousuke entered the school.
"Good morning. Nothing happened, just lack of sleep." said Jousuke as he remembered his mom's anger because of deep cleaning.
"You're smiling so weird and look so tired. You're creeping me out." said Kenshin.
"Hey, that's a foul. I'm just tired. By the way, where's everyone?" Jousuke replied and asked.
"They're all already in the manga club with the club's members. We're told to wait for you here." said Asano.
"Oh, sorry for making you wait. Am I late?" Jousuke asked.
"No, we still have to wait for someone. Our dear president who says she's excellent." said Kenshin and then he laughed.
Suddenly, a woman ran straight towards Kenshin and she punched his head.
"What the hell are you doing, Poku-chan?" said Kenshin with annoyance.
"Heh. I can hear you loud and clear from that distance." said Poku.
"Good morning, Poku-chan." said Jousuke and Asano.
"Good morning for both of you too. Except for you, Esashi-kun!" said Poku.
"Hey!" Kenshin shouted.
-MANGA CLUB'S ROOM-
As the club's door opened, Poku said "Sorry for the wait, everyone!"
Everyone replied "Please do a great work today."
"Settle down. I guess everyone's here now. Here's our plan today. Daikuhara-kun, Esashi-kun, and Boutsuki-chan, you'll be the one who'll manage the funds and buy and sell mangas. In other words, you'll be the financial group. Poku-chan, Miyazaki-chan, Asano-kun, and Sakurai-chan, you'll be the one who'll lead the event later as per the principal's order this morning, in other words, you'll be the emcees' group. Lastly, Jitsukawa-chan, Jouho-chan, and the rest of the club's members, you'll be the one who'll help the contestants later, in other words, you'll be the artists' group. In every group that I've set, you'll be the one to manage your group as well; this will be a teamwork task for you as well guys. Is that clear, everyone?" said Daimon.
"Yes, Sensei!" said everyone.
"Okay, let's all do a great work today!" said Daimon.
Minutes have passed and it is now 8:30AM. Every group is discussing their tasks for the event.
-FINANCIAL GROUP-
"All right, what should we do? Do you guys have any suggestions? We still have 30 minutes left." Jousuke asked.
"Since there's only three of us, we have to maximize our tasks together." said Leah.
Kenshin replied "Yeah, what about we divided ourselves into. Yeah, it'll be an individual task but we'll do it for the finances. Jousuke, you'll be the one who'll be selling mangas. Boutsuki-chan, right? You'll be the one who'll buy mangas. And I, Kenshin Esashi, will secure and compute all the records today. But since it's kind of a heavy task, Jousuke, you'll do the auditor's task, to secure the record. Lastly, Boutsuki-chan, you'll be the one who'll list the bought and sold mangas. Is that fine for you guys?
"Yes." said Jousuke and Leah.
Jousuke added "But wouldn't that be too much of a work for you, Kenshin? I mean, you'll do it for hours nonstop."
"It won't bother me. I've been an officer of the student council since 8th grade. I'm used to this." said Kenshin.
"Okay. But if you need help, just ask us." said Jousuke.
"Sure. I think we don't have to discuss more about our tasks, since it's settled." said Kenshin.
"Since we're done discussing, we can now arrange our place right there." said Leah and she pointed to the other half of the club's room.
"Okay!" said Jousuke and Kenshin.
The three of them stood up and went to their place. They settled their place very quickly. Once they're done, Leah spoke "Good job, everyone. For now, I think we can now close our room." said Leah.
Jousuke thought to himself "What does she mean?"
Leah grabbed a remote and she clicked a button. A wall divided the club's room and Jousuke was shocked because it's his first time seeing such things. He thought to himself "Wow, that's so cool! So that's what Daimon Sensei was talking about when she's talking with Utsumi-san."
-ARTISTS' AND EMCEES' GROUP-
"All right, seems like the financial group have already settled what they need. I think we should politely ask for the emcee group to go to the event hall so we can settle our place right here." said Jitsukawa.
"Okay. If that's so, I'll do the talking." said Jouho.
Jouho walked towards Poku and said "Hey, big sister. Good work today!" said Jouho as she tried to act cute.
Poku thought to herself "She's so frickin' cute! Why is she always like this? She's like my little sister!" and said "Good work today. Why?"
"Will your group do anything in this room now?" Jouho asked.
"Uhm, no. We're about to leave actually, why?" Poku asked.
"My teammate told me to ask your group politely to proceed to the event hall. They said we have to settle our place and your group needs to settles yours too." said Jouho.
"Oh, yeah. Don't worry, we're about to leave now." said Poku.
Asano approached the two of them and asked "Any problem, Ryouka-chan?" Asano asked Jouho.
"No, Jin-kun. Why?" Jouho replied to Asano.
"Nothing, you look worried. I thought Poku-chan did something bad to you." said Asano.
Poku punched Asano's chin out of annoyance and said "Why would you assume such things? My little sister's the one who approached me!"
"Oh, come on! She's not your little sister!" said Asano.
Poku replied "Well, she act like one!"
"Okay, okay. You two, stop fighting. Here, shake each other's hands." said Jouho as she held Asano's and Poku's hand.
As they shaked each other's hand, Poku said "Be thankful my little sister asked me to do it." Asano replied "Well, be thankful my girlfriend asked me to do it."
"Calm down, you too." said Jouho.
Both of them smiled and replied to Jouho "Yes, Ryouka-sama!" and then evilly looked at each other once again.
A few moments later, Poku asked to the emcees group "All right, is everyone ready to leave?"
The emcees replied "Yes."
Poku said "Very well, let's do this."
As the emcees left the club's room, Poku said "We're taking our leave now, Jitsukawa-chan, Ryouka-chan."
Jitsukawa and Jouho replied "Okay!"
A few moments later, Jitsukawa teased Jouho "Are you gonna let Asano-kun leave without saying goodbye, Jouho-chan?"
Jouho blushed replied "W-well, we'll see each other later again though."
"Oh my, Jouho-chan. You're always the calmest one, but you always blush when Asano-kun's the topic. Come on, atleast tell him to do a great work." said Jitsukawa.
"C-can you handle them?" Jouho asked.
"Of course I can! Anything for you." said Jitsukawa.
"Well then, excuse me!" said Jouho and then he quickly ran to find Asano.
She ran through the hallways. When she entered the class 2-A, which is her and Asano's class, she saw Asano, she ran towards him and hugged him.
"R-Ryouka-chan, is something wrong?" Asano asked.
"N-no! Well, come here!" said Jouho as she touched both of Asano's cheek.
Jouho kissed Asano and both of them blushed and closed their eyes.
The moment they finished kissing, Jouho asked Asano "What're you doing here? You're supposed to be helping at event hall, right?"
Asano "Well, I went here for my phone. What about you, what're you doing here?"
"Uhm, of course, to tell you to do a great work..." said Jouho.
Asano thought to himself "Why is she so cute!?" and said "Well, please do a great work as well, Ryouka-chan!" and then he smiled.
"U-uhm, I have something to ask you." said Jouho.
"Yes? What is it?" Asano asked.
"You might feel cringed, please no!" said Jouho.
"Of course, I won't. Why would I feel such things?" said Asano.
"A-are you sure? This is kind of a clingy side of me." said Jouho.
"I love your clinginess, I'm sure!" said Asano.
"W-well, c-can you hug me?" Jouho asked.
"Sure thing." said Asano and he hugged Jouho.
Jouho was shocked but he hugged back Asano and thought to herself "This is where I belong. I shouldn't be always calm; I should also feel this kind of affection from my boyfriend."
