Chapter 13: Holiday

"Okay then let's get started, Episode Eleventh Theater Room, Holiday."

Hearing the title given by Batler, most of the current second year students quite understood what the title meant.

Because they felt the bitter reality at that time, where they wanted to feel the holiday atmosphere, but ended up with a special test on the island that consumed a lot of their energy.

"So maybe we'll be aired about the test on the island...?" Ishizaki asked.

"It might be interesting to see how Ayanokouji made his class rank first in the exam." Ryuuen felt a sense of anticipation wanting to see how the plan he had thought of back then could fail.

"You were pretty sure about Ayanokouji involvement back then Ryueen...?" Katsuragi who had certain suspicions asked his classmates.

"I'm pretty sure about that, Suzune couldn't have thought of such a plan, since you didn't see her in the room during the announcement did you? And Ayanokouji said that she retired before the end of the exam." Ryuuen confidently spoke his thoughts.

After saying that, he was silent for a while as if recalling what he just said.

"So that's how it is...? Ayanokouji the more I see you, the more interesting this school life becomes." Ryuuen was starting to feel he quite understood what Ayanokouji was doing at the time the island exam happened after speaking his thoughts earlier.

"So you have started to understand what might have caused class D to rank first then?" Kanzaki was curious about what Ryuuen said.

"Who knows?" Ryuuen laughed at Kanzaki question.

[The everlasting summer sea. The boundless blue sky. Perfectly clear air. The rustling of the salty sea breeze that gently wraps around the body.

Here, in the heart of the Pacific Ocean without feeling the sweltering midsummer heat.

Yes, this is really a Sea Paradise.

"OHHHHHH! This is the best AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

From the deck of a luxury liner loudly rang the screams of Ike Kanji who stood with both hands raised. Usually, complaints and phrases like "SHUT UP!" came flying from nowhere, but today of all days there was nothing and everyone finally enjoyed a blissful moment. There was a remarkable view from the best place on the deck in the reserved seats.

"What a fantastic view! I'm really super excited!!!!"]

"So it's true that we'll be watching as the special exam takes place." Ike said quite confidently.

"It's pretty clear with how the title gives us a clue." Shinohara replied to Ike words.

"If what Ryuuen said is true then we've been wrong in thinking about who brought our class to first place back then." Miyake said his thoughts.

"If that's true, let's now think about what caused Kiyotaka to want to take such an action?" Yukimira replied to his friend's words.

Hearing their conversation, many students also started to think about Ayanokouji purpose of doing so.

[A group of girls led by Karuizawa showed up from the inboard compartments. She pointed at the ocean and with a ear-to-ear grin said: "Really, what a terrible scenery..."

Kushida Kikyō, one of the girls of the group idling about, was also ecstatic and was sighing while looking at the sea.

After overwhelming hardships, the midterm and the finals we finally welcomed summer vacation. It was waiting for us with open arms.

Koudo Ikusei Senior High School had organized for us a luxurious two-week trip. A cruise on a luxury liner.

"I'm glad I didn't leave school, Ken. If this trip was an ordinary trip, it would've been definitely impossible for me. How does it feel to be someone on the verge of being kicked out, who was in the last place even in the final exam? Tell me, how does it feel?"

Even if this question was instigated by Yamauchi Haruki, Sudō Ken, far from looking blue, just howled with laughter. The fierce and cool appearance of the lone wolf merged completely into the laughing classmate's figure. "It's all a piece of cake if I depend on my skills. Didn't they say I could show my ability of playing the leading role to resolve everything with my intellect?"]

"I don't know why it's quite funny to hear that person words." Sakayanagi laughed at the words of the person he manipulated earlier.

"Such Inferior Humans shouldn't exist in a school like this." Kouenji insulted the inferior humans who had been in his class.

"I'm quite surprised to see you get along well with him Sudou-kun." Onodera said to Sudou who was sitting beside her.

Sudou who heard the question from the person next to him felt quite ashamed of his past self for being friends with someone like Yamauchi.

Hirata, who recalled the bad memories when Yamauchi expulsion occurred, had a slight frown on his face.

[Despite being in agony only some time ago, this trip seems to have completely blown everything away. It surely seems like this blue sea washes away all the usual troublesome things and the difficult situations.

"I never would've dreamed I could be part of such a luxurious trip. And it's 2 weeks, 2 WEEKS. When mom and dad will hear it, they will be so surprised that they will piss in their pants".

As Sudō said, from an ordinary person's point of view, this is a non-standard trip. In this high school, supported by the country, there's really no need to pay for miscellaneous expenses or tuition. And naturally, even for this trip. It's all special treatment.

And needless to say, the exterior of the liner we boarded and the facilities were also very fulfilling. From a first class restaurant and the theater where you can enjoy plays or live performance, to a classy spa fully equipped of anything. If I ever thought of travelling as an individual here, I would need to spend 100.000 yen in the off-season.

Finally, such a marvellous and commended trip starts today.

The schedule will go on like this.

In the first week, we're going to make the most of our summer vacation by staying at a pension built on a desert island.

Then, the following week we're going to sojourn on the cruise boat. At 5 am, the first year students will take the bus simultaneously and head towards Tokyo Bay, then the passenger ship will leave from the port where the students boarded.]

"Unfortunately expectations are not as beautiful as reality, Ayanokouji-kun." Matsushita said to Ayanokouji.

"Maybe only class C at that time felt the holiday atmosphere at that time." Sato said

[While eating breakfast in the liner's lounge, the students could behave as they pleased. Additionally, a very fortunate thing was that all the facilities on the ship could be used free of charge. For us, usually worried about points of shortage and expenses, this was a life-saver.

Suddenly, Kushida turned towards me and gave me a thoughtful look. Backed by the ocean and the blue sky, Kushida looked even more shining and I don't know why but my heart pounded, despite being ugly.

Impossible, it can't be that she...towards me.]

Hearing Ayanokouji ridiculous thoughts, once again the students couldn't hold back their laughter because even after facing a crisis with Kushida, Ayanokouji could still think of such things.

Kushida who had been silent all this time and watched the situation displayed on the screen felt that her thoughts about Ayanokouji had been correct, even after being threatened by her at that time, Ayanokouji had no thoughts of worrying about the situation when dealing with her.

Was it possible that she wasn't considered a threat by Ayanokouji?

If it's true like that, then Ayanokouji scary enough.

["Well then, how about Horikita-san? Aren't you always together?"

I couldn't allow myself to be captured in the haze of her vision. It seems like she was simply thinking about Horikita.

"Come on, now. I'm not her guardian..."

I can't remember seeing her on board after breakfast.

"You don't seem much of a person who enjoys travelling, are you more like one who enjoys staying in the room?"

"I guess so"

"Around noon we can go on the private beach of the island and swim freely. I can't wait!!"

It seems like this school owns a small island in the south, and we're heading there now.

"Attention to all the students! Please gather on the deck. You'll be able to see the island soon. For a while, you will be able to see a very meaningful and splendid scenery". This curious announcement suddenly reverberated throughout the ship. Kushida and the others paid attention to it and calmly seemed to be looking forward to what was to come.

A few minutes after several students started to gather, the island appeared.

Ike let out a whoop of joy. The students noticed it and they began to cluster on the deck all at once. When a whole mass of people crowded the place, some bossy students came to push us so that they could take our place on the best position.

"Ah so bothersome...Hey, get out of the way! You rejects!"

In that moment, one of the very intimidating boys thrust away my shoulder. In a sudden fluster, I grabbed the balustrade of the deck to avoid losing balance and falling. Those students laughed at me in disdain.

"Hey you, what the fuck are you doing?"

Sudō became extremely upset and intimidated on the spot. Kushida, worried by the situation, came beside me. Another girl who followed behind that student and saw the scene actually had a very miserable aspect.

"You should understand this schools' system. It's a school based on merit. There are no human rights in class D. 'Defectives' have to behave obediently and submissively, like the rejects they are. This side, we're all class A".]

Seeing the behavior of the class A student, many in the audience shook their heads and felt that maybe what Kanzaki said earlier was true.

That every class there is a balance going on, if the entire class A was a genius student like Sakayanagi then the other classes below them wouldn't have a chance to compete.

"So it's most likely true that every class has a balance." Kanzaki rephrased his previous thoughts.

"That's a possibility, because if we look at the current situation of second year D class, quite a number of students are doing well in their own fields, it's just that some have very glaring flaws." Katsuragi replied to Kanzaki's words.

"Could it be that you are not saddened by the expelled of your only loyal supporter, Katsuragi-kun?" Sakayanagi asked Katsuragi.

"It's just the past, there's no need to think too much about it." Katsuragi had quite forgotten the events of that time.

[The D class then departed from the bow (of the boat) like they had been kicked out. Sudō seemed displeased, still he didn't give in to a fight and was able to endure with it, which proved that he was becoming a little more grown-up. Or was it simply because he understood and accepted class D's inferior position?

"Hey everyone, you were all here. What happened?"

Among the students who came flocking, one boy called out to me.

Although we sensed that the situation was displeasing and unfair, there was no need to have unnecessary worries. So better to pay no heed to it.

That boy's name was Yōsuke Hirata. Class D's Leader.

I'm also the leader of the group to which I belong.

The rooms' allocation in groups was about to be decided in that moment. While I was just expecting not to be called by Ike and Sudō to whom I was relatively close, the group simply ended up in over capacity.

Just when I remained alone, the entrance of Hirata kind of like a Messiah settled the situation.]

"Kiyotaka-kun thank you for the compliment." Hirata laughed seeing the compliment his friend gave him in his mind.

"You're welcome, Yosuke." Ayanokouji returned the gratitude given by his friend while eating the ice cream brought by his girlfriend Karuizawa.

"Hirata-kun and Ayanokouji-kun, what a very interesting combination." Some girls who had strange thoughts were bleeding from their noses.

Even though many students are confused about their situation, with how Ayanokouji and Karuizawa are dating, does Hirata not feel the slightest hatred towards his ex-girlfriend already in a relationship with Ayanokouji after they broke up?

Although most of the female students were happy they had a chance now to win Hirata heart.

["Say Hirata, how far did you get with Karuizawa?"

Ike addressed Hirata who actually never tried to get closer to Karuizawa.

"Why don't you take the chance of this long-awaited trip and try to be more flirty with her?"

He poked fun like that, having also heard that Hirata hates when other girls look at him.]

"That's true right? We all haven't seen Hirata-kun and Karuizawa-san making out with each other this long."

Many students with higher mental capacities started to have suspicions in their minds, because after seeing the relation between Hirata and Ayanokouji was still very good even after Karuizawa had a relationship with Ayanokouji.

["We just go to our own pace, huh sorry. I'll be going now. Miyake-kun seems to be in trouble".

His mobile rang and Hirata went back to the ship while fiddling. Busy is the destiny forpopular people.

"What's with him? Is he really only worried about his classmates?"

"But Karuizawa is Karuizawa, and apparently they've not been much close recently so...perhaps...they've broken up? If it's like that, then it sucks. Kushida-chan will have much more competition".

Certainly, they could be less close compared to when they started dating. But I don't feel like they've fought or the situation has got uglier. Because indeed they seem to get along well when I see them talking.

"I've decided Haruki. I...will confess to Kushida-chan on this trip"

"Well, what the fuck. If she dumps you Ike, it's gonna be incredibly awkward. Will it be okay??"]

Ike and Sudou who saw their friend embarrassing behavior lowered their heads in shame.

Yamauchi bastard.

Even after you were expelled from school, you still bring shame to us.

The two of them had similar thoughts about Yamauchi, it felt like they were dying to smack that shameless face.

["This is only for my selfish reasoning. In any case, isn't Kushida-chan very cute? That's why I think most of the boys want to ask her out. However, as she's out of my and their league, and she's not used to confessions I'm sure that there's a possibility that Kushida-chan's heart will be shaken by my sudden love confession. But there's only a little hope there".

"I see...you made up your mind already.."

"Ah...yeah"

Yamauchi wanted to burst into opposition about that, but he did nothing. He was looking over the deck restlessly as if he was searching for something.

"What's the matter?"

"Ahhh, no nothing..."

After ignoring me absent-mindedly like that, in the end Yamauchi didn't touch the Kushida subject anymore.]

"I wonder how he would react if he found out Kushida-san real situation." Hiyori spoke her honest thoughts.

"Isn't it obvious? He just a stupid horny student. So maybe he will ignore it." Ibuki replied to Hiyori words.

Hearing Ibuki words, most of the students agreed, after seeing how Yamauchi behavior had been all this time maybe he would just ignore Kushida situation and continue to want to ask her out.

["Hey hey Kushida-chan. You got a minute?"

"Uhm? What is it?"

Ike immediately approached Kushida who was calmly looking over the sea nearby. Obviously, that was a suspicious move.

"Well...how shall I say...Hasn't been about 4 months since we met? That's why, before long I wonder if it's okay to call you by your first name. You see, it sounds cold and distant when I call you by your last name".

"Now that you mention it, Yamauchi-kun called me by my name before I realized it"

"Eh, I guess it's bad if I call you Kikyō-chan, after all".

Ike exclaimed a bit deflated but Kushida beamed nonchalantly.

"Of course, there's no problem with it! Should I call you Kanji-kun too?"

"UUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH KIKYO-CHAN AAAAAAAAHHHHHH"

Ike cried out and screamed assuming a pose of one who was going towards heaven or of someone who just received a package with Platoon the Movie.

Kushida laughed softly. I guess she saw him as strange and funny.]

"Maybe in her mind, Kushida-senpai is cursing and insulting that person." Amasawa laughed cutely at what was shown on the screen.

"Maybe it's things like this that cause Kushida-san to experience frustration and stress, which causes her bad personality to come out, and Ayanokouji-kun accidentally sees it." Matsushita said her honest thoughts.

"It was quite surprising to know that you were able to properly assess Kushida situation, Matsushita-san." Horikita had a suspicious mind of Matsushita.

"Ah... it's probably obvious as Ayanokouji-kun said earlier, so I'm just jumping to conclusions." Matsushita answered calmly, although in her heart she was a little worried because she had talked too much all this time.

Horikita who heard Matsushita answer cast her gaze at her classmate suspiciously, as there was a high possibility that she was quite similar to Ayanokouji.

["First names uh?...come to think of it, what is Horikita's first name?"

Sudō naturally asks me if I know it.

"It's Tomiko. Horikita Tomiko."

"Mhm Tomiko...it's a cute name. As expected, the feeling is perfect."

"Ah no, I was wrong. It was Suzune"

"You little...do not make more mistakes. Suzune uh? It feels perfect like Tomiko, but 100 millions times more"

Whether Horikita's name is Sadako or Sam, it would be selfish to feel it or say it without permission.]

Horikita who saw her seatmate doing a joke using her name turned her gaze to Ayanokouji, "Ayanokouji-kun it's not good at using someone name as a joke."

"That Horikita was my fault back then for not remembering your first name." Ayanokouji who sensed the deadly look his friend gave her answered with the face he usually had.

"A dog wants to know its owner name." Ryuuen laughed disdainfully.

"That is a very catchy and perfect phrase for that dumb." Hosen felt a certain familiarity with Ryuuen for the first time after they insulted Sudou.

For some reason, Ryuuen also felt the same way.

It was possible that they were destined to cooperate with each other to insult Sudou.

Sudou feel wanted to throw a punch at the two people who insulted him, but he made an excuse in his mind that Suzune might be disappointed in him.

Yes it was because Suzune would probably be disappointed in him, not because he was still a little traumatized by his fight against Hosen.

["During this summer vacation, I will also call you by your first name. Suzune, Suzune..."

Well, it seems like the boys want to get closer to the girls during this vacation.

Meanwhile, none of the boys calls me by my first name nor I call them with theirs.]

"Don't worry senpai~, you can call me by my first name, and I can also call you by your first name huh...?" Amasawa said that in a slightly teasing manner.

"That's right senpai, I'll call you by your first name too." Nanase found this Amasawa quite interesting after seeing her behavior, maybe she was also seeking attention from senpai.

Possible.

Maybe if the two of them work together......

["That's right. Hey look here, Ayanokoji. You made me try practicing. Now you practice saying Suzune's name too"

"Practice? Why? Practice, you say...That's not normal".

You can't do something like practicing saying a person's name... unless you do it before the person himself.

Don't tell me that the simple-minded Sudō intends to make me out to be an imaginary Horikita.

He was staring at me intensely.

Probably because he's imagining the opposite sex, but that gaze is awfully gross.

"Say, Horikita, you got a minute? I need to talk to you a little"

"I'm not Horikita"

I became immediately disgusted and turned away with a face of disapproval.]

Seeing the actions the dog had, Horikita cast a disdainful look at Sudou, "Sudou-kun, you're quite cute."

Sudou who was currently lowering his head at seeing his past embarrassing actions, raised his head in a robotic motion upon hearing his owner terrifying call.

["YOU IDIOT! It's practice. I also don't want to do it, but it's necessary for me, mhm maybe or maybe not. Because if I don't practice I can't be good. It's important I give it a shot either way."

I really don't want to hear such a horsesh*t talk.

Ahhh, since it can't be helped, I'll just go along with it and be patient.

"Horikita. It isn't strange that we're always treating each other as strangers? We've been acquainted for a long time. And it seems like others are calling each other nicely with their first name. How about we do it too soon.... gradually?"

[............................................]

Unconsciously, I wanted to hit Sudō's head so much. But I endured it with patience and mentally just like an adult would do. Just like an adult would do.]

"Don't worry Ayanokouji-kun, if you see Sudou-kun shameful actions, you can hit him as much as you want." Horikita who heard Ayanokouji thoughts on the screen gave her advice.

"Alright Horikita, I carried out the assigned task properly." Ayanokouji who felt like he was given an order by a superior, agreed to the order valiantly and bravely. Maybe he was too dramatic.

Sudou who heard Horikita order issued to Ayanokouji became very worried, because after seeing the fight Ayanokouji had with Hosen, and seeing everything that was showing on the screen so far, maybe he would be beaten to death by Ayanokouji if that person was serious.

Sudou is not stupid.

He knew enough that maybe Ayanokouji had more fighting experience than him

["Say something! Why are you not practicing with me?"

"No, no...What do you want me to say?"

"Just something that Horikita is likely to reply. Since you've known her for a long time, you must know what she'd say, right?"

Our level of acquaintance is 4 months, so it's impossible for me to know such things.]

Hearing Ayanokouji thoughts that were clearly lying, many students shook their heads because they didn't know how Ayanokouji was lying in his mind.

It was clear in the previous few episodes, that Ayanokouji understood very well how Horikita mind worked, so it was quite hard to believe Ayanokouji thoughts saying that he didn't know Horikita very well.

Had he been living by lying to himself all this time?

How could he not be crazy like that?

That's what most of the audience thinks right now.

[Even so, Sudō insisted that I played the part of an imaginary Horikita. I clenched my fist unconsciously as to threaten someone.

"I'm one step from becoming an adult and I should do something like this on behalf of Horikita? Feel free to practice by yourself"

Instead, Ike acted as a substitute.

While looking a bit shady, Sudō said: "Horikita...is it okay if I call you with your first name?"

"Um well...Sudō-kun is not really a handsome guy, isn't he? I mean, it seems like he doesn't have much money either. He isn't really my type, can't you see? I mean, sorry sorry, isn't he an outcast?! "

Ike was acting as a gyaru high school student who, on the contrary, looked nothing as such. So Sudō, even while being on the deck, decided to chokehold him and making him writhe in agony.

They're always full of vitality, these fellows. Just by looking at them, the fatigue builds up and accumulate. Still, it seems funny.]

Hearing Ike words many students couldn't help but laugh.

It was almost perfect to describe the entire life that Sudou had.

Although there are some people who don't accept Ike behavior, like Horikita.

How could her even be compared to a gyaru?

That was the thought Horikita had.

"It was scary enough to see Ayanokouji find it funny to see his classmates being chokehold and writhing in pain." Kamuro said with her honest feelings.

Knowing how Ayanokouji and Sakayanagi really thought might be very dangerous.

[After a while, all around the gasps grew louder.

The students' enthusiasm also increased greatly when the island could be clearly visible to the naked eye and the distance shortened more and more. I thought the ship was directed to the island, but I don't know why we passed through the pier and the ship began encircling around the island. The area lent by the country to manage the island is 0.5 km. The highest altitude is 230m. It's a very tiny island if seen from the perspective of Japan's totality as a country, but if seen by a hundred and a dozen people on a cruise like us, it was even too big.

Somehow, the liner circumnavigated the island and showed it entirely. It continued to go round and round the outer perimeter without changing speed. Although the ship barely made a splash of water, it actually navigated at an unnatural high speed.

"It's a very mysterious sight... I'm impressed. Don't you think so, Ayanokoji-kun?"

"Oh? hmm yeah true."

I looked at Kushida whose eyes were shining while looking at the desert island, and my heart pounded a little. Again. After all, Kushida was really cute. I wanted to protect that smile and that child-like behaviour.]

[Episode Eleventh Teater Room, Holiday. End]

Watching the screen slowly darken, many started discussing with their friends sitting next to them.

Although many students still feel astonished by Ayanokouji thoughts.

Kushida is one of them, she is very worried now, maybe Ayanokouji mind is more complex than her to make him have worrying thoughts like wanting to protect the behavior of a child that belongs to her.

"Thank you Ayanokouji-kun." Kushida who was still worried could only reply to Ayanokouji with a smile.

"Ayanokouji, obviously you have those troubled thoughts." Kanzaki was increasingly worried about himself and was skeptical seeing Ayanokouji thoughts about wanting to protect Kushida childish behavior.

Are you serious?

Even after seeing the terrifying behavior she displayed earlier, Ayanokouji still had such ridiculous thoughts.

"It's quite worrying indeed Ayanokouji state of mind, if he can still have such thoughts for Kushida." Katsuragi said with a bit of worry.

"You guys are too serious, I can't possibly have a problem in my thought." Ayanokouji replied to the worried words the two had.

"Katsuragi-kun and Kanzaki-kun, you say that probably because you don't really know what kind of person Ayanokouji-kun really is." Sakayanagi laughed at their words.

Ryuuen who couldn't hold back his curiosity turned his gaze to Sakayanagi, "You seem to know Ayanokouji very well?"

Sakayanagi who heard Ryuuen question just laughed, "Maybe a lot of people have already thought about it. Ayanokouji-kun and I are childhood friends."

Hearing Sakayanagi words many students felt a shock after hearing that Ayanokouji and Sakayanagi were childhood friends.

Episode Eleventh closed with a surprise given by Sakayanagi to all the audience in the Theater Room.
