Thirty-Seventh Episode

I should step back here. If Matsuki makes contact with Senjo-senpai, then no matter how I think about it, it will take a turn for the worse.

It’s obvious, but…

It will be the worst if I step back here. Matsuki’s long awaited step forward will be ruined.

Even if I decide to step back here, Matsuki will surely accept my order. However, her mental state that was so excited to attend school will suffer.

Momentum is important. Humans riding on waves of momentum are strong. Should I step back even if it means killing that momentum?

Can’t help it. I’ll have to decide after having a look at Matsuki’s reaction.

“Matsuki, I’m sorry. This is completely my bad. I thought that Shizuki had no intimate friends at school, but the girl standing next to the school gate is a person who is trying to build such a relation with her”

However.

“I don’t know what are her intentions in doing that, but she is pretty persistent, that I can say for sure”

While holding Matsuki’s hand, I whisper so to her.

Senjo-senpai is the type of person that will wait even until sunset. Moreover, even though last time it was just her and us, she kept kneeling the whole time. In addition, she told Shizuki she would likely kill herself if she refused to talk to her.

I’m troubled if she dies. If such thing happens, Shizuki will feel responsible. Having said that, to have replaced Shizuki in school without her doing her talk with Senjo-senpai…

Aah, damn, why did I forget this. This is the worst. It is the worst development.

“F-friend…”

“Huh?”

While I was worried, Matsuki murmured something.

I turn to look at Matsuki. And I found her looking at Senjo-senpai while her eyes shine.

Wait, wait a moment. This reaction is outside my expectations.

“Shizuki’s friend!? Fufufufu! Friend! Shizuki’s friend! Not only a master, but she even got a friend! That girl! I gave birth to a hawk!”

Matsuki shone a smile as she raises her voice and looks at me, then she looks at Senjo-senpai.

“C-Calm down. Matsuki, listen to what I say. First of all – “

“Hello! I’m Shizuki’s mother!”

“What? Hey, wait a moment –“

I tried to stop Matsuki, but I was too slow.

The hand that was grasping my sleeve left, and Matsuki runs to Senjo-senpai at full speed while waving her hand.

“I’m Shizuki’s mother, I’m Matsuki! Thanks for always looking after my daughter!”

And she firmly makes her self introduction.

I became worried about Matsuki’s actions outside that were way outside my expectations, but this isn’t the time to be worried.

“Matsuki, wait a moment! Please wait a moment!”

Although I ran while shouting, Matsuki’s legs are faster than I expected. Perhaps her brain’s limiters were released.

It seems like it’s a big event for Shizuki to have friends of the same sex.

Well, she isn’t exactly a friend. Or perhaps, Shizuki has antipathy towards Senjo-senpai. She must only think of her as a nuisance.

I throw the bag and start running faster towards Matsuki.

Anyway, I have to stop her.

I was able to catch up to Matsuki after a moment while running at full power, and then I extend my right hand towards her shoulder.

“Hello! Hello! I’m Shizuki’s mother, Matsuki! I’m ashamed I brought nothing but my utmost gratitude!”

“Hm?”

However, right before I caught her, she shouted, and Senjo-senpai noticed her.

Senjo-senpai who was looking straight ahead with her back straight, looks at Matsuki waving her hand.

“Muguuu!? Muguuu!? Muguumugumuguuuuuu!?”

Somehow I caught Matsuki and covered her mouth while she was raging, but Senjo-senpai was too close.

What to do? What should I do?

“Fujimura-san, Sakura-san, good morning. Fufu, you are quite lively so early in the morning”

Senjo-senpai saw Matsuki and politely greeted us as I cover Matsuki’s mouth. And after a moment her eyes are loosened and she smiles.

It seems that she still thinks that this is Shizuki as she called Matsuki “Sakura-san”.

Ah, fuck, I can’t retreat now. If it has reached this point, I have no option but to enter the school.

The talk with Senjo-senpai today about her wish can be delayed for later. I should look for a way to escape from this situation.

“Ha-hahaha! Well, Senjo-senpai, good morning! It is a nice weather today!”

“Muguu! Mugumugumuguu! Muguuuu!”

While laughing, i greet Senjo-senpai, while not minding Matsuki who was behaving wildly.

Matsuki, please, I don’t expect you to be a good child, but at least be quiet.

“Oh, good morning, Fujimura-san. But, fufu, right in the morning starting with a chase? As expected of master, she has a firm grasp on Fujimura-san’s heart, to have you chasing after her. Can’t say nothing but as expected. How did you do to make Fujimura-san fall so madly in love with you? Please teach me your secret by all means” [1]

Senjo-senpai returned the greeting as a flash of light appeared on her long and narrow eyes and speaks while looking at Matsuki who has her mouth blocked. And praises Matsuki while thinking that she is Shizuki, as she begs for teaching.

Rather, she is already calling her master. [2]

Anyway, I’m so glad. I was worried about what was going to happen, but it seems that she misunderstood for the good. Moreover, it seems that she hasn’t noticed that the Shizuki here isn’t Shizuki, if that is the case, it may be possible to survive in the school.

“Hm? Hah?”

While I was lost in thought, suddenly Senjo-senpai shows a confused face as she gazes at Matsuki while putting her finger to her chin and tilts her head.

This is bad. Did she notice?

“Though it’s a little, did master’s back shrink? Also, her body is slightly different from yesterday? Moreover, she looks more mature than yesterday?”

Senjo-senpai points out the differences between Shizuki and Matsuki. As expected of the kendo club’s captain and the strongest queen. Is it impossible to deceive her insight?

No, don’t give up. Senjo-senpai is someone from the physical education department. Moreover, she is the kendo club’s captain, which lives with the samurai spirit as discipline. Even though the beauty values have reversed, the situation is different, it doesn’t change the fact that she has to abide by the rules.

If Senjo-senpai gets to know that Shizuki’s mother went to school instead of Shizuki herself. This will become a big problem.

Anyway, I have to make it through this place even if I have to be aggressive and make time for future actions.

“Mu? Impossible—“

Senjo-senpai who was quietly watching Matsuki, assumed something and trembled. And then abruptly approaches me and closes in to my ear with a smile.

After all, she noticed?

My heart throbs too much as if it was about to explode, and I swallow hard while spouting cold sweat all over my body.

“Can it be, that you enjoyed last night?”

Senjo-senpai whispers close to my ear.

Did you enjoy last night? Huh? Well, yes, that is right, however. Huh?

“I see, I’m convinced now. When a woman is loved, the body releases hormones. Anyway, today’s master has an aura all over her body as if she is overwhelmed by Fujimura-san’s love. It’s a wonderful thing. I envy such master that is loved by a man like Fujimura-san”

Senjo-senpai continues to whisper as if convinced.

While calming down my heart, I decided to leave the misunderstanding as it is because it’s convenient for me.

“Haha, about yesterday’s matter, to tell you the truth, the answer isn’t ready yet. Can you wait until after school…?”

Anyway, in order to be separated from Senjo-senpai, I have to talk about yesterday’s matter.

“Oh, there is no problem. On the contrary, I thank you for seriously thinking about my wish, even if you refuse to continue the talk; I want you to be relieved because I won’t make any inconveniences to you. And –“

Senjo-senpai bows to us while talking, then she looks around. And she approaches abruptly again.

“The hierarchical relationship is severe, so it would be a great help for future interactions, as I have decided to dedicate my body and soul to Sakura-san, who is my master. If there are no people around, there is no problem if you call me Mikage. No, I would very much like you to do so”

Senjo-senpai moved her mouth close to my ear and whispered that.

Even though I told her that the answer isn’t ready yet, Senjo-senpai has already decided to become Shizuki’s disciple.

Is it already impossible to refuse?

Even if I accept it, I have to talk with Shizuki. It’s Shizuki who accepts Senjo-senpai and she is the one who would suffer the most out of it. Therefore, I can’t answer without getting her confirmation.

“Then I will talk to Shi-Shizuki and you after school”

While covering Matsuki’s mouth, I talk to Senjo-senpai with an amiable smile, as I took distance from her.

“Oh, I got it. Then, until after school”

Although it shouldn’t be a problem for her to come with us, she bowed towards us as we left. Even if I turn to look at her, she is still standing there.

There are no signs of her coming after us.

I pat my chest in relief, feeling relieved I hurry to the school building.

Although I have not solved any problems, I was able to delay it. I was worried about what would happen with the wild Matsuki, but the worst situation was avoided, so lets just leave it at that.

As usual, I put a big amount of love letters from my shoe box in my bag, then walk into the school building with Matsuki. I thought the difficult part was going to be this, but Senjo-senpai showed earlier. It was truly unexpected.

Well, I was in the wrong for forgetting.

“Matsuki, we will be separated during classes because Shizuki’s classroom is different from mine”

“Friend. Shizuki’s friend. Ufufufufu”

I tried to talk with Matsuki, but her mind is elsewhere. With a blush on her cheeks, she keeps saying friend, friend time and time again.

It seems that she is extremely happy about Shizuki making a friend.

Maybe she will get angry if I tell her Senjo-senpai isn’t her friend?

However, it’s good that the tension disappeared.

“Matsuki, if there are any problems, contact me immediately, there is no problem even if it’s in mid-class”

“Yees ♡“

While patting Matsuki’s head, she answers happily while smiling.

It’s nice that she isn’t nervous anymore, but, is it okay like this?

As soon as we separated and she entered the classroom, there was a lot of noise coming from inside and then silence. And I felt that the students inside started paying a lot of attention to us.

Shizuki gained a lot of renown after getting involved with me. I thought that Shizuki would get harassed, but it was the opposite.

I honestly don’t know why, but it’s convenient like this for me.

Shizuki’s bullying seems to have stopped, and she is okay.

Matsuki goes to Shizuki’s seat and then takes out the study tools from the bag and puts it on the desk.

Matsuki is sitting on the seat while blushing.

Hmm, this is worrying. Although it’s worrying if she is too nervous, I’m more anxious if she loosens her mood too much.

“Listen Matsuki, if something happens, call me immediately. Don’t try to do it by yourself. Do you understand?”

I crouched and moved my mouth closer to Matsuki’s and whisper to her.

“Yees ♡“

Matsuki answers with a voice full of happiness while laughing.

Do you understand? Do you really understand? Maybe it would be better to not take classes and leave her in the school nurse’s office bed.

But, she is in such a good mood. How can I just go and pour water on her like this?

Well, should I watch for the time being?

“Well then, I will pick you up after classes end, so behave well until then”

“Yees ♡“

While patting Matsuki’s head, she answers the same as before.

I got out of Shizuki’s classroom and hid myself behind the entrance to look at the situation inside.

After all, I’m worried. I don’t know what kind of action will do Shizuki.

“Shizuki-chan!”

While watching inside, several girls came running towards Matsuki. I saw it and sweat started pouring down my whole body.

Hey, what is this? Although I knew Shizuki’s bullying was settled, I didn’t know she suddenly got in good terms with everyone else in the classroom.

“Yees! Shizuki here!”

She raises her right hand and replies cheerfully with a smile. I became worried when I saw that.

Who are you? Shizuki’s character isn’t like that, you should know as her mother.

“Waa, Shizuki-chan is so energetic today. Well, she was acting so lovey-dovey with Fujimura-san from the morning!”

“Ehehehe ♡ because master is so kind ♡“

Matsuki answers while laughing happily. Hearing that, all the blood left my body.

Master…

Don’t say that in public. Even if I don’t tell you, you should know.

“Eh!? Shizuki-chan calls Fujimura-san master!?”

Sure enough, a female student raises a voice of astonishment. And the surrounding goes quiet.

Please Matsuki, take back what you said.

“Yes ♡, that’s right ♡“

Matsuki nods foolishly while throwing out her chest as if proud of what she said.

This is no good. After leaving her, she messed up instantly.

“Fujimura-kun and Shizuki-chan are in a good relation, right?”

I thought Matsuki would be called out, but the other students remained calm and kept talking to Matsuki.

It seems that they don’t feel that anything is wrong. Perhaps I should say, that they have a very friendly atmosphere.

“Today Shizuki-chan feels somewhat nicer”

“Yes. You always are expressionless, but today you are smiling”

“Although before I talked about Shizuki-chan and Fujimura-kun’s relation as a joke, you sure are good together”

“I heard that you always hold hands with Fujimura-kun, is it true? There is a rumour that Shizuki-chan isn’t the one who started it, but Fujimura-kun who is deeply in love with you”

“Damn, I would have confessed if I knew that he judged by the insides rather than the looks”

“No, no, even your inside is as ugly as your appearance”

“What!?”

Conversation breaks out inside the classroom. I can hardly feel any negative feelings such as dislike and jealousy in those conversations, if anything, it’s friendly.

“Sakura is seriously irritating, isn’t she? Just because she is associating with Fujimura-kun, she gets carried away. She is truly disgusting”

S-Stop it… Fujimura-kun declared their relationship in such a dignified manner. And he was touchy in such an eye-catching way with Sakura. Which is why his favorability rose suddenly. So if you meddle with Sakura, we don’t know how many people will turn their hostility to us”

There seems to also be students who are hostile, I see, so it’s like that.

Because I started a relation with Shizuki who is famous for being ugly in our school, my favorability rose suddenly? So that was the cause why the number of love letters explosively increased.

As long as I have Shizuki, I don’t mind anything else, I was just in that state of thought that I lost sight of anyone else, so I don’t understand other people’s hearts.

“And, although it’s a rumour, it seems that Fujimura-kun got Senjo-senpai backing him”

“Eh!?”

“If you antagonize Senjo-senpai, that is like antagonizing all the girls in the deport clubs. Although her looks are horrible, she didn’t mind and kept training till the point she participated nationally, so she ended up becoming the role model of a lot of girls”

“P-Popular, isn’t that a girl’s fantasy? Moreover, there is no way Senjo-senpai is sticking with Fujimura-kun”

“I think so too, but, he is associating with Sakura, moreover, it seems to be serious. Maybe it’s true that he doesn’t judge by a woman’s appearance”

“Ugu”

Senjo-senpai, I was worried when that name came up, but it seems to not be bad.

Really. Does Senjo-senpai have such an influence on the girls of the deport clubs? If she is backing me up, then the ones bullying Shizuki will decrease further, and we can spend a peaceful school life.

I thought that there was no merit to associating with Senjo-senpai, but it seems to be better than expected.

“Shizuki-chan, want a cookie?”

“I’ll eat~!”

“Shizuki-chan, want a candy?”

“I want~!”

“Shi-Shizuki-chan, I’ll give you this chocolate, so could you tell Fujimura-kun that Mina Kanna is a super kind girl?”

“Wait!? Mina, what are you talking about!?”

“What? Even though you too want to tell her that!”

“What!? Are you an idiot? It’s different! Completely different! Unlike you, I just wanted to give that to Shizuki-chan”

“Okay~!”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

“Eh!? Is it okay!?”

The girls start a fuss in the classroom. While watching that I leak a sigh and part from there.

Well, it seems that she will be okay somehow.
