Let's do it again, Yukino.

Because Hiratsuka-sensei also apologized to him privately in the end because of this.

She kept saying that she should have let him join the club where she served as an advisor.

But in the end, Kasuga still rejected him.

I really don't need clubs or associations anymore.

Instead of joining those boring clubs, why not find a troll to act as, and then pull in a literary girl, a time traveler, and a superpowered boy to form an SOS club?

……

The SOS club ultimately fell through.

It wasn't just that finding members was too difficult; it was also because Kasuga had recently become interested in a girl, so he put aside his thoughts of establishing a club.

Moreover, every teenager has their own worries, and of course, Haruhi is no exception.

The girl who amazed him first met him on the tennis court at Sobu High School.

She seems to be a high school girl from another class.

The beautiful baseline return shot he swung was of a very professional level, and just one glance made Chunri, who was passing by, stand still.

He recognized the girl somewhat; at least he could recall her name.

It's Yukino Yukinoshita, she's so famous.

Because that girl was quite famous throughout the entire Zongwu High School, unlike me, her fame was in a positive sense.

However, in my memory,

Haruhi always equated her with the literary girl persona of Nagato, the girl in front of her.

Sure enough, he looks like someone who is basically inactive, but his athletic ability is so developed.

From the moment we started, this stadium became a battleground between Yukinoshita and the ever-popular duo of the kind-hearted Hayama and the blonde queen Miura.

Standing to the side were a classmate with dead fish eyes and a girl with tea-colored hair. The two characters, one gloomy and the other silly, were completely standing aside and just playing a minor role.

"Oh……"

With a gasp from the crowd, Yukinoshita, the woman with long, flowing black hair,

A beautiful jump serve, and it's a direct point!

It's unbelievable that such a beautiful woman, excelling in both academics and sports, actually exists.

Although Chunri wasn't particularly interested in academically gifted girls, he was immediately drawn to this girl who was both academically and athletically gifted and had a quiet personality.

I really like it. At least, this feeling of love at first sight is something I've never experienced before in my life.

If you like someone, go after them. If you don't even dare to pursue the girl you like, and you're just sitting here having a silly crush, are you planning to wait for someone else to pursue you?

Springtime remembers the words her mother once taught her.

So on a dark and windy night

He deliberately waited for her on the narrow, winding path he often walked under the snow.

The hazy streetlights illuminated the not-so-unpleasant face of spring.

The straightforward and cheerful Haruhi, panting, caught up with Shioyuki.

He touched the girl's slender, delicate shoulder.

At this moment, Haruhi shyly wanted to touch the heart of this aloof girl with her sincerity and words.

Haruhi's looks are actually above average among the boys at Soubu High School.

But spring has not yet spoken.

He was then rewarded with a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw by the girl under the snow, and all he saw was her cool and aloof back as she left without saying a word.

"...Hey, wait a minute, I haven't said anything yet."

More than the pain, the boy was surprised.

This was also their first real meeting.

However, the boy did not leave a good impression on the girl during their meeting.

However, this long journey of searching for the girl in springtime...

It was indeed officially established from that moment on.

……

…………

One evening after school,

The school dismissal time was delayed considerably that day.

Perhaps it was because of Valentine's Day, but most of the girls around me had bright, cheerful smiles on their faces.

And in spring, at the moment when she walked out of the school gate alone with her schoolbag on her back.

But in a corner of the courtyard I frequented, I saw a rather adorable little white cat.

Although Chunri was a delinquent, he had no intention of bringing stray pets home. All he wanted to do was go home; only the cold comfort of his bed could offer him any warmth on this chilly holiday.

"Meow--"

It's a very cute cat meow.

"Meow……"

However, as he listened intently in the spring sunshine, a sound mimicking a cat made him stop in his tracks.

That was a girl's cute imitation of a voice.

"Meow"

Then came the cute meow of a kitten.

"Meow, meow"

Once again, the voice of the girl I would never forget from my spring memories came through.

The boy turned his head to look again.

This scene is truly rare; a beautiful young girl is squatting in front of a cat and talking to it.

It's quite common for ordinary girls.

But that's Yukinoshita, a non-human being. This scene is quite memorable, and Kasuga plans to take a picture of it with her phone.

I've heard from those gossipy girls that if you set a picture of someone you like as your phone wallpaper, some really fun and interesting things will happen.

"Could you please not do that?"

As Yukinoshita bent down to tease the little white cat, she seemed to sense Haruhi's presence. Without turning around, her voice calmly traveled from in front of Haruhi to her ears.

"What I do is my business, right? I haven't even settled the score with you for that really outrageous over-the-shoulder throw from last time."

Chunri retorted without batting an eye, while her phone, which had been in front of her, was discreetly slipped back into her pocket.

"Any young girl would react normally to a strange man who looks like a pervert and is touching her body while panting. No, I did forget to call the police that day. It was my fault."

Ugh, this girl doesn't feel any remorse for her past violence, and even goes so far as to add insult to injury.

The innocent young boy's heart was thus broken.

"...Is this your subconscious behavior towards people who confess to you, Yukinoshita-san?"

"Confessing your feelings? Do you like me? Or is this just a punishment game between friends?"

"...Just pretend I didn't say anything. Sure enough, it was my eyes that made the mistake."

Haruhi's lips twitched as she looked at the girl squatting on the ground in front of her, her eyes still fixed on the cat's mouth, yet relentlessly attacking.

Perhaps at this moment, in her eyes, the adorable cat in front of her was more attractive than the unfamiliar boy, Haruhi.

Never mind, it's true that if you get too close to a girl you like,

Suddenly, Chunri felt that he no longer had the same excitement he felt when they first met on the tennis court. Just as he was about to turn and leave, Yukinoshita, who was carefully holding a cat in her arms, called out to him as he was about to leave.

"What's your name?"

"Haruhi."

"What a strange name."

The girl seemed to be murmuring softly.

She seemed to have heard her classmates mention this name before, but then she remembered why this name had been passed down by word of mouth.

"If my name is strange, then your name, Yukinoshita, isn't much better."

"..."

Finally, that evening, Haruhi quietly left amidst the girl's rather unfriendly gaze.

She learned his name.

……

…………

And then the cultural festival arrived,

Along with spring, which also brings its own busy workload.

Since 90% of the students in the class are girls, most of the heavy work falls to the boys, and as one of the few boys in the class, Haruhi is no exception.

He was even elected by those rather hooligans to be the executive committee member that everyone was passing the buck to.

Coincidentally, Kasuga discovered Yukino Yukinoshita in the committee member's classroom.

However, um, Yukinoshita-san,

Didn't you only need to record miscellaneous tasks? How did you suddenly become the deputy executive committee chairman?

And they basically did all the work, including the work of the Sagami committee chairman.

Speaking of which, Yukinoshita is really no ordinary person. She was able to organize everything clearly and arrange it reasonably for everyone.

Having long since graduated from being a delinquent, Haruhi is much more mature than she was in junior high school.
