Chapter 8 – Sara’s POV

I was remembering the time I saw Takanashi-san off…

I was a little surprised to find myself waving at him before I even realized.

I’ve never done that before… at least I don’t remember doing it to a boy.

At that moment… When Takanashi-san looked back at me, I had a mysterious feeling that I couldn’t explain.

And by the time I noticed, I was already waving at him.

“From Sara-chan’s perspective, what kind of person is Takanashi-san?”

Grandma asked with fascination.

Well, I’m sure grandma has never seen me having a normal conversation with a boy of my age.

In fact, I believe that Takanashi-san was different from other boys.

Just like when I’m with my friends, I think I’m able to interact with him without thinking about unnecessary thoughts.

I am sure that the fact that he was the first member of the opposite gender who I did not find disgusting which seemed strange to me somehow.

——————————–

I have always been uncomfortable with boys.

I can’t remember my kindergarten days, but when I was in elementary school, I remember being bullied by boys a lot.

It wasn’t just one or two boys.

It’s not even limited to my classmates, there were also boys who came from other classes that went out of their way to tease me.

In worse cases, I was annoyed when they hid my things from me.

If I talked to a boy in good faith, they would start screaming that I must have liked him.

And even in junior high school, the boys didn’t seem to have changed much.

Will they never grow up and forever be child-like?

Some of the boys would talk about games and anime all the time, and some of them would brag about it even though I didn’t ask them.

And even though I’m just listening to them, before I even knew it, they would say that we are dating or something like that…

Some of the guys would even say gibberish like, “Don’t talk to my girl”.

It was getting tiresome and I felt it was a waste of time to deal with them, so I decided to speak up to these childish boys who couldn’t even read the situation.

“Stop talking to me, you’re an eyesore. And who are you calling your girlfriend? Are you crazy to the point that you can’t tell the difference between fantasy and reality?”

I can still remember the surprised look on the boy’s face who had referred to me as his girlfriend.

After that, the boys’ impression of me became worse… as if I care.

On the other hand, girls started to talk to me a lot, regardless of what class they were in.

The girls who said they were sick and tired of the boys’ childish and annoying behavior said that I was cool and that it made them feel better.

But while they said that they were annoyed, in the end they were trying to get closer to such boys and it looked disgusting… I guess that’s just the way it is.

———————————

I have no intention of changing my attitude.

But I also understand that this attitude of mine will only make me more enemies.

To not have anyone complain about me…

I know for a fact that I am not bad at studying.

I don’t mind housework and household tasks either.

Since I had the time anyway, I decided to do everything I could to improve myself.

「It can’t be helped since it’s her」. I’ll make everyone think like that and stop anyone from complaining.

Of course, even when I entered high school, I didn’t change my attitude.

The stupidity of the boys seems to be getting bigger…

A frivolous man with brown hair who looks stupid just by looking at him… Exposing his low level of intelligence, he made a fuss without regard to the surroundings with his unpleasant language.

Even though he doesn’t know anything about me, he suddenly asked me to go out with him in a frivolous manner.

On top of that, an increasing number of boys, even those who looked normal, confessed that they like me, a total stranger.

I don’t even know them, so if they suddenly told me that they like me, it doesn’t make sense. What do they know about me, and what do they like about me?

The number of such boys increased to the point that it made me fed up, making my attitude harsher.

Partly for my own purposes, I immediately accepted the invitation from the student council.

Although I didn’t want to, I found myself becoming the vice president and I tried to fulfill as many requests as I could, especially those from the students that I thought were necessary… of course, it was all calculated.

The requests to the student council… I thought it would be useful to make people become aware of me by successfully fulfilling their requests while keeping them at a reasonable range.

I also studied hard.

Furthermore, I think I did well in physical education, home economics, and other non-written areas.

And before I knew it, the upperclassmen, classmates, and juniors were all saying how great I was.

Although I was just doing my job normally, it was nice to be appreciated.

But because my actions were all out of selfishness, it was difficult for me to honestly express my delight.

There were more people who were willing to assist me.

Especially my classmate Natsumi, who was as boyish and energetic as she looked. She always pushed me to be more friendly.

That’ s why I found myself being able to talk to her normally.

And now I think of her as my very dear best friend.

In the student council, I believe that everyone has properly accepted me.

As vice president, I gave out orders as usual.

Sometimes… no, always… I give them a hard time.

Perhaps because of this, not many people approach me unless they have a clear reason to do so.

That’s when I met Takanashi-san.

He seemed to be a type of guy that had never approached me before.

It’s hard to say… but every time I came in contact with him at school, I became a little more interested.

——————————–

I went home and somehow thought about my day.

I went home and thought about what happened today.

…That’s right, I need to thank him…

That said, I wonder how I should do it.

I’ve already promised to give him something 「simple」.

In the first place, I’ve never given a present to a boy before.

Sweets won’t do the trick… if I gave him a small accessory, though I don’t even know if he will be needing it…

Was there anything that could give me a clue? Let’s try to remember the usual Takanashi-san at the flower bed.

First of all, he came to the flower bed and ate his onigiri first…

It seems that Takanashi-san always ate only onigiri.

Bento… I don’t want it to be the same as onigiri, so let’s add some side dishes…

If I can find out what Takanashi-san’s favorite side dish is…

I’m glad I came up with the idea so easily.

I’ll ask him about it when I see him tomorrow.
