“That’s right… come to think of it, there will be a class shuffle.”
When Arisa told him, Yuzuru suddenly realized.
In the second year, the classes will be completely changed.
If that happens, there’s a good chance that Yuzuru and Arisa will be in different classes.
“You forgot?”
“No, well… I guess the correct answer is that I wasn’t really conscious of it. I’m getting a little nervous.”
But just because they are in different classes doesn’t mean they will be separated or anything.
In the first place, it is not possible to talk during class time…
It doesn’t matter if it’s the same class or not, as long as they can talk to each other during breaks.
“If the New Year’s prayers work… then I’m sure we’ll be in the same class.”
“…yeah, that’s right. There’s two people’s worth after all.”
I hope we can be together again this year.
The two of them remembered that they had prayed for such a wish at the shrine.
In the meantime, they arrived at the school.
Yuzuru and Arisa picked up the papers distributed near the shoe boxes.
On it were the details of this year’s class placement.
The result was…
“Oh, it’s the same class.”
“It’s the same.”
They were in the same class.
Relieved, Yuzuru and Arisa patted their chest.
“… Ayaka-san, Chiharu-san and Tenka-san are also in the same class.”
“Soichiro and Hijiri are also in the same class…”
They looked for the names of their closest friends and realized.
They were all in the same class.
“…do you think it’s a coincidence?”
“I wonder? I think it’s a …coincidence.”
However, no part of it can absolutely be called a coincidence.
The high school that Yuzuru and his friends attend is a private school.
And Takasegawa, Tachibana, Uenishi, and Satake had donated a considerable amount of money.
It’s hard to believe that they would put pressure on something as unimportant as this, but it’s possible that the administrators made some kind of discernment…
(No, naturally not..)
In the first place, the school is not operated only by donations from Takasegawa and Tachibana.
Ordinary students are also important “clients”…
There was no reason to give Yuzuru special treatment.
So it’s probably just a coincidence.
However… Let’s assign close friends to the same class.
It is quite possible that the teachers’ had such intentions.
“Well, It’s fine in any way. Let’s go, Arisa.”
“Yeah.”
The two of them began to walk.
….As expected, it was on school grounds, so he was careful not to hold hands with her.
