My childhood sweetheart is Nishimiya Glass

Chapter 268 Seven Days
"Tsuna, is there a club you'd like to join?" Shoko placed the membership applications she had collected over the past two days in front of someone.

"..."

Tsuna turned his gaze from the stars outside the window and glanced briefly at the application forms on the table: "Does the Home Return Club count?"

Shoko didn't say anything, but just stared at him quietly, and her meaning was already very clear.

Today, Ms. Nanase explained some reasons to them, basically saying that everyone should join a club.

However, most people don't take Nanase-sensei's words to heart and forget them in the blink of an eye.

"Hmm..." Tsuna pondered for a moment before slowly announcing the name of a club.

"'The Summer of the Far East Magical Nap Club'? Does our school really have such a club? I have no recollection of it at all...?"

Shoko was a little suspicious that the person in front of her had just made up some weird name to fob her off.

"Yes, it's in that inconspicuous corner on the right side of the club recruitment area." Tsuna nodded, and seeing that she still didn't believe him, patiently explained:

"If you don't believe me, just pay attention when you go shopping tomorrow and you'll notice it."

As for why I mentioned this club's name? It's because if I really had to choose a club to join, that club would be the best choice.

Able to leave early, able to sleep, good atmosphere among club members, few trivial matters... I guess so...

Anyway, as long as you can tolerate 'just a little bit' of minor issues, it's a perfect alternative to the Homebound Club.

Shoko tried to discern whether Tsuna was lying by looking into his eyes, but after staring for a while, she couldn't tell anything, only that Tsuna's eyes were really beautiful...

Putting aside those random thoughts, Shoko started asking him about his trip to the Shibuya driving school that afternoon.

"The environment is alright. I just went to see the coach and get some study materials before coming back. Otherwise, I wouldn't have returned before you."

Shoko nodded upon hearing this, and after he finished speaking, she began to share the interesting things that happened that afternoon when she and Ayumi Ajitani visited the recruitment office...

However, all I received were perfunctory responses from someone.

Finally, Shoko rolled her eyes dramatically, as if venting her frustration, and vigorously rubbed Tsuna's cheeks with both hands while pouting and muttering:

"I'd like to go with you to check out the driving school in Shibuya tomorrow."

After hesitating for a moment, Tsuna agreed.

"Then you can't go back on your word tomorrow!" Seeing this, Shoko happily let go of the person's cheek and turned back to her seat to draw illustrations.

As for whether or not to go see that club that Tsuna mentioned before, that's no longer important.

It wasn't until after 10 p.m. that Shoko packed her things, said goodnight to him, and left the Miyamura house. Tsuna looked at the documents for about ten minutes before going back to bed.

He is now confident that, barring any major unforeseen circumstances, he will receive his motorcycle driver's license by next week at the latest.

In early April in Tokyo, the cherry blossoms were just beginning to sprout, and the mornings and evenings were still cool.

In the blink of an eye, two rain showers fell in succession, the temperature rose suddenly, all the flower buds on the branches opened, and people rushing to work or school put on light jackets.

When I looked again on the weekend, the wind was blowing through the cherry blossom trees in front of the station, and the petals were already falling down in a flurry.

"Today is the last day for club recruitment. If you haven't checked it out yet, hurry up, or you'll have to wait until next year."

At the end, Ms. Nanase on the podium gave several more examples of the benefits of joining a club.

The person below, engrossed in watching the sparrows outside the window, didn't hear a word. A week had passed since Shoko accompanied him to driving school after signing the contract. He had passed the written test and the next few tests, and now only the 'emergency braking' test remained.

The remaining one should be obtained within the next couple of days, barring any unforeseen circumstances, and the motorcycle driver's license can be received on the spot.

As for clubs, he didn't choose to join any of them. Instead, Shoko and Ayumi Ajitani signed up for the art club yesterday.

As for his concern that Shoko might be ostracized or bullied by other club members, he had considered that, but he still trusted Ayumi Ajitani.

Furthermore, when Shoko and her friend went to submit their application, they encountered "Yuki Miyagi," the senior and club president of the junior high school art club who had taken special care of them.

With these two around, he had absolutely nothing to worry about.

Takagi chose to join the Literature Club in the last few days, and Nishikata, needless to say, submitted his application right after Takagi did.

As for why Takagi, a student from the Homecoming Club, changed her mind and chose the Literature Club, he had heard Shoko mention it before.

To summarize Shoko's explanation, Takagi changed her mind because the Literature Club allowed her to leave early "occasionally" and get the latest manga and novels firsthand.

This is one of the reasons why Nishikata joined the Literature Club...

In the past few days, he has already encountered everyone from the 'Kyoto Magical Nap Society' except for the male and female protagonists.

At first, he sensed a strange hostility from his senior, Isshiki Makoto, but when they met again later, he no longer felt that way.

“Boom…boom…boom…!”

"Clap clap clap..."

Ms. Nanase clapped her hands forcefully on the podium, drawing the attention back to the students who had been distracted by the bell.
"Alright students, school's out now. Be careful on your way home."

Before she could even leave the classroom, it erupted in chaos, with the sounds of desks and chairs clattering and excited banging on the desks. Ms. Nanase shook her head helplessly and walked out of the classroom.

"Tsuna, it's the last day, do you want to go check out the recruitment office?" Shoko suggested while packing her bag.

He actually only went to see it on the first day, and never went again after that.

When Shoko said that, she also had a little bit of selfish motive in her mind.

Tsuna hesitated for a moment but still shook his head and refused. Today, Shoko and the others had to go to their clubs to register, and he would be going alone anyway, so he might as well go to the driving school.

And he really didn't have any intention of joining the club.

"Fine……"

Seeing this, Shoko stopped trying to persuade him. She had originally wanted to say that if Tsuna had a favorite club, she would apply for one as well.

Although there are advantages and disadvantages, Tsuna didn't have any particular thoughts, so let's just leave it at that.

As for Risa, although she can't be with Tsuna all the time after school, they can still go home together, and sometimes she can go to the club he applied for to accompany him.

If that's the case... some clueless girls might try to flirt with him when she's not around, although she knows Tsuna probably won't pay any attention to them...

After lingering for a while, the group left the classroom and headed in different directions. Although they were in different clubs, they could still walk home together after school.

After all, the club's get out of class schedule is the same, unless something happens to cause a delay.
