My youth romance is always confusing

“Finally—it’s over!”

As the teacher collected the papers, the first voice heard in the classroom was the cry of a girl with a bun-haired hairstyle.

Although her voice was a little abrupt, it did not attract anyone's attention.

On the contrary, her voice was like a spark that ignited gunpowder, instantly igniting the passion of the students.

"It's over, it's over! How are you going to spend your summer vacation?"

"Hey, my family is going to the beach, and we don't know when we're leaving."

Words like these rang in my ears and then disappeared.

Really, they still want to go out for a trip. Do these guys really want to go to college?

I looked up in the direction where the voice came from, wanting to see who was saying such nonsense.

Ah, it’s the Ministry of Revenue. That’s okay.

"Quiet, quiet, what's the point of making so much noise?"

Mr. Hiratsuka walked in from the door like Superman, dragging his white coat.

"Well, although I understand your feelings, you still have to assign the things that need to be assigned, especially the summer homework. You all have to complete it honestly. Remember!"

"Oh!"

"Finish it for me" is a very Hiratsuka-sensei-like way of saying it.

Don't talk like a soldier heading to the battlefield. You're already scary enough, don't get any scarier than that.

After the exam, the students started to riot.

The arrival of Mr. Hiratsuka not only failed to suppress the commotion, but instead made the students' energy, which had nowhere to be released, even more active.

Fortunately, the assignment didn't take too long, and Mr. Hiratsuka had arranged everything in just half an hour.

Taking advantage of this time, I looked at everyone in the classroom, intending to imprint their ugly appearances in my mind one by one.

When I graduate in the future, I will have a reason to laugh at them.

Yuigahama is making a lot of noise, Miura Ebina seems to be discussing some makeup issues, Tobe Hayama... um, I don't understand what they are talking about. What is "style clothing"? Is it some kind of special flavor?

Totsuka, cute.

"Hachiman, how are you going to spend your summer vacation?"

Perhaps noticing my gaze, Totsuka turned sideways and spoke with a hint of gentleness in his voice.

My throat moved up and down, and for a moment my throat was choked by the sweetness and I was unable to speak.

How can this guy be so cute? He’s almost as cute as Komachi.

By the way, Totsuka was not originally in front of me, but because of the exam, everyone's positions were messed up, so I encountered such a happy thing.

“Just a normal tutorial...”

After all, there wasn't much for me to do during the holidays except tutoring.

I'm not one of those trendy people who can run to the beach with friends and enjoy their youth.

And wouldn't it be silly to go out in the sun without any shelter during the hottest time of the year?

Excessive exposure to ultraviolet rays can cause skin damage.

"Ha, I thought Hachiman would take advantage of the summer break to rest up."

"After all, I have to go to school..."

Before I could finish my sentence, a tall figure appeared in front of me, blocking Totsuka and me.

"...Hiratsuka-sensei?"

"Hikiko, you're quite talkative. Come to my office later."

"..."

Damn it, why did this female teacher pick on me when there were so many people talking in the classroom?

How much does this guy like me?

Terrible.

"Xiaoqi!"

I pushed my bicycle and walked out of the school gate with Miyue, intending to have a race with the wind.

Suddenly, a lively voice came from behind.

But at this time, it’s better to pretend you didn’t hear it.

Nothing can stop me from heading towards summer vacation.

I subconsciously quickened my pace.

But due to the bicycle at hand, he couldn't go any faster.

Tsk, Hikiko No. 1, don't hold me back at this time.

"Xiaoqi!!"

As if she was a little angry at the fact that the boy in front of her had not responded to her, Yuigahama rushed forward in two steps and grabbed the back seat of the bicycle.

"Hey, it's dangerous."

Because I had no idea what Yuigahama was doing, I subconsciously continued to move forward with the same strength as before, but it was as if there was a rock behind me that held me back.

For a moment, his body was a little unbalanced and he almost fell to the ground.

"Humph, who told you to ignore me?"

Ms. Yuigahama, no matter how much you puff up your cheeks, humans can never become hamsters.

“This is the school gate.”

"Huh? So what?"

"..."

Facing Yuigahama's slightly innocent gaze, I suddenly felt that it would be extremely stupid to waste my breath talking to this guy.

I pushed the cart and continued walking towards the school gate.

If I stay there any longer, I will definitely attract other people's attention, and it will be difficult to explain if those people in the current group see me.

"Oh yeah, are there any activities in the Service Club during the summer vacation?"

Yuigahama seemed to have no self-awareness and followed again.

The dumpling girl walked lightly, and her school uniform and some part of her body trembled slightly in the early summer breeze.

"You should ask Yukinoshita about this."

Are you kidding me? You want me to work during the summer vacation?

Impossible.

The hard-earned vacation, whether for studying or resting, is countless times better than working.

This is the only summer vacation in my second year of high school.

"Eh? It's a rare vacation..."

"How was your exam?"

Realizing that continuing this topic would be as troublesome as a peanut dropped into sesame paste, I quickly turned my gun around and took the initiative to attack Yuigahama.

As expected, when he heard about the exam, Yuigahama's previously healthy face suddenly turned red.

Hey, it’s almost as red as a tomato.

"I...did pretty well."

"As long as I can pass it."

"Hey hey hey..."

Don't smile like an idiot. You didn't look very smart to begin with, and now you look even dumber.

"That's it, see you at the start of school."

"Ah? Ah, see you at the beginning of school."

I rode my bicycle and left the school gate with Mitsuki behind me, leaving Yuigahama far behind.

After another battle of wits and courage with the traffic police, the familiar supermarket appeared before my eyes again.

By the way, Komachi said she wanted to buy some exercise papers for practice.

There was no other way, I could only let Miyuki down from the bicycle.

"Oh."

After a quick selection, what appeared before my eyes again was a youthful face that seemed a little sleepy, but the eyes and eyebrows were still as beautiful as ever.

Saki Kawasaki.

This guy actually left school faster than me. It turned out that Yuigahama was slowing me down.

The machine scanned the barcode on the paper package, and with a "beep", Kawasaki's lazy yet cheerful voice rang in my ears.

"Are you going to cram school tomorrow?"

"Huh? Hmm."

This woman actually took the initiative to talk to me, so there should be no problem.
