Kenkyo, Kenjitsu o Motto ni Ikite Orimasu

Chapter 31



This is my Christmas present to you, and Id be really glad if you gifted me back with a review on novelupdates! Incidentally, Reika graduates from primary school soon, so lets have one chapter every 15 minutes until she does.

Yurukyara or yuru-chara are mascot characters of sorts, and like, different prefectures have their own mascots and stuff.

Also Ive never been to j.a.pan, nor seen how they sell these tourism yuru-charas, so this chapters translation might have a few mistakes.

Even though its already summer, I havent made any progress with the girl at cram school. But I know her name now. Its Yorino Aoi-chan. As per usual, I stole a look at the name written on her books. Aoi-chan. What a fitting name. I kind of get the feeling that my stalker traits are getting stronger and stronger. I dont think I can laugh at Kaburagi anymore&h.e.l.lip;

*imouto*

But a chance suddenly appeared.

As usual, I was on stand-by next to Aoi-chan as I watched the situation. And while I was doing so, Aoi-chan suddenly dropped her pen! At the speed of light, I picked it up!

Ah-&h.e.l.lip;

Having lost her pen, Aoi-chan looked at me in a panic. Its my chance! My once-in-a-lifetime chance!

Umm&h.e.l.lip;

I-, I-, I am Kisshouin Reika! Gokigenyoh!

Aoi-chans hand reached towards the pen I was grasping and hesitating in mid-air, but it was a precious hostage. I wouldnt hand it back so easily.

Hmm&h.e.l.lip;

Aahh, shes frightened of me. Why? Is it because my eyes are shining like a predators? It is because of my drill hair? Nooooo, Im not scary, you know!? An opening, look for an opening&h.e.l.lip;

I too like Tarow the Taro!

Eh-

I decided on all or nothing. To begin with, the reason I wanted to become friends with her is because I saw the unpopular yuru-chara on her bag.

Ever since I saw your, um, Tarow the Taro keychain, I have always wanted to speak to you.

Aahh, this kind of feels like a love confession. My hands are shaking from the nervousness. My heart is pounding away.

So, um, could you perhaps be my friend?

&h.e.l.lip;

Uwahh, Im about to cry from the nervousness. Oniisama, I meant to earnestly get closer to her, but I ended up jumping the gap in one go! What do I dooo? Saveeee meeeeeeeeee!

&h.e.l.lip;Um, my pen, please return it.

&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;

Aahh, its over.

Aoi-chan is frowning just like Tarow is. Of course she wouldnt want to be friends with a girl like me. Of course. A fake Rococo would be the type that Aoi-chan is worst with, after all. Im just a drill hair girl. I see, I see. Im sorry. I wont follow you around anymore. Drill hair girl will quietly leave&h.e.l.lip; I held out the pen to Aoi-chan. Definitely, dont cry.

Oniisama, Ive been rejected. OTL&h.e.l.lip;

&h.e.l.lip;Please take care of me.

After grasping the pen tightly, Aoi-chan had fallen into thought for a while, but then she raised her head to look at me before saying that.

Huh?

Im, Yorino Aoi.

I know. Because Im a stalker in the making.

Please be my friend.

After saying that, Aoi-chan smiled.

EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!?

Really?

Mn.

Eh-, why!? Even though you were that scared of me, why!?

But, werent you avoiding me?

When I said that, Aoi-chan looked a little awkward. I asked something unnecessary.

Because, you said that you liked this,

she said, pointing at her Tarow strap,

n.o.body has said that they liked him before.

Same here!

Ive never actually asked around, but far from people telling me they like him, n.o.body has even mentioned him before. They probably dont even know about him.

I also want to talk to you about Tarow.

Mn!

Did it! I did it! Oniisama! I tried my best! And it looks like Aoi-chan is willing to be my friend!

Cla.s.s began so we stopped talking for a while, but the moment that it ended, we started talking again.

About how Aoi-chans grandpa lives in the countryside, in the area that Tarow the Taro came from. About how she bought her keychain last year when she went over there to play. About how Tarow the Taro goods were only sold in his hometown.

I see~ I also searched the internet, but n.o.body was selling Tarow goods anywhere, and I was really wondering where on earth you got your keychain, you know? I even thought that you perhaps made it yourself.

Ahaha, hes not very famous so I dont think theyd sell him on the internet. There isnt much variety in his goods, and I dont think they sell very well.

Truly?

Yeah. Where he comes from, they sell a Tarow pouch with a picture of him in it, and in shops they sometimes have cardboard printouts of him, but the time that I went there, n.o.body was buying Tarow goods except me.

My~

So Tarow really is a pitiful kid&h.e.l.lip; So like me, Aoi-chan also became fans of him because she felt sorry for him. Can Tarow not get any fans outside of sympathy votes?

Looking carefully, hes got quite an interesting face, huh~ At a glance he looks plain though~

Mn&h.e.l.lip;

Hes mostly a light brown, so he really is quite plain.

After that, we continued happily talking until second period began. It was really fun. We promised to sit next to each other next week too. Im so happy.

*imouto*

When I got home, I immediately let Oniisama know.

I did it, Oniisama. I became friends with Aoi-chan!

Aoi-chan? The girl that you said you wanted to become friends with, last time?

Yes. Today we had a good time chatting about Tarow.

Aahh, the&h.e.l.lip; weird little yuru-chara that you like&h.e.l.lip;

The other day I showed Oniisama Tarow the Taro on the internet. Oniisama wasnt sure what to say about him that time as well.

Oniisama, you still havent understood Tarows charm yettt?

Looks like it. I dont think itll ever happen.

Ehhhhh?

Oniisama, why wont you understand its cuteness. But Oniisama gave me advice about Aoi-chan didnt he. As thanks, should I try making him dinner again? Oniisama, look forward to it!

Aahh, what a good day its been!
