I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

Leaving the matter of Tobe, since no one thought that his love would be answered, everyone was already excited about the school trip.

".........." Tobe.

During this trip, everyone would go to Okinawa, so it was impossible for them to contain their excitement.

Naturally, Shishio knew the one who was the most excited about this trip was Saki Kawasaki since he knew this girl loved the water so much.

It was also why Saki had been quite restless with her group as she watched the scenery outside the airplane window. Everything seemed so small before she could only see either blue, green or something with a grey color. Everything seemed so small and insignificant from her position.

Still, Saki wondered what Shishio was doing.

"Is it me, or is Tobe dying?" Ebina Hina asked curiously.

As Hina, Yui, Yumiko, Saki, Hayama, and the extras were usually in one group, they noticed Tobe, who was lying on his chair as if his soul had been pulled out, and from how he was, it also wouldn't be weird for him to die shortly.

Tobe was dying at that moment since he knew his love had vanished. It disappeared before it even began. He also didn't dare to approach Ebina, so as of now, he just lamented his misfortune. He let out a long sigh, feeling listless as he felt his world was grey. The excitement of everyone in his surroundings didn't affect him. Instead, he was like in a different world from everyone else.

"You... You don't need to worry about him. Anyway, he just needs to rest. You don't need to worry about him."

Hayama was quite awkward, but he still answered this question. Honestly, this was what he sought since he didn't want to ruin their relationship because of Tobe's confession.

If Tobe confessed, then he was rejected, then, without a doubt, everyone would know about it, and he would become the talk of everyone. Even if no one knew, it would be impossible for one to maintain their previous relationship after the confession.

However, should Hayama feel grateful toward Shishio? Yes.

Yet, Hayama felt quite complicated since he knew after the appearance of Shishio, everything around him changed. He looked at the group of girls, who were usually close to him and everyone. Even if their relationship might not seem to change much from the outside, he could tell they had become quite distant.

Hayama glanced at Yumiko, who talked with Yui, Saki, and Ebina. Even though she seemed to be talking, she was like a mother who took care of her naughty children. She was so careful and gentle, yet also strict at the same time.

If it was before, he might not have seen this part of her, especially when he felt of her as nothing but an annoying girl and a shield, so no girls would approach him since it was quite annoying being confessed.

The confession itself was fine, especially when the girls didn't ask for an answer.

However, it was troublesome if they asked for an answer since, without a doubt, he was going to reject them. The thought of rejecting, even though he had gotten used to it, he had to say, was quite uncomfortable since watching girls crying definitely wasn't his hobby.

Hayama suddenly thought about Haruno when he looked at Tobe. Similar to Tobe, he knew that his love was over before it even began. It was doomed and impossible to achieve, especially when he thought about Haruno's expression that day. He wanted to believe that her expression was her usual mask, but he knew it was real. It was an expression that he had never seen on her face.

It frustrated him, but he knew that it was impossible for him to do anything.

Unlike Mitaka, Hayama's mind was clear.

His father also taught him a lot of things, such as the people that could be offended and couldn't be offended.

Naturally, he wouldn't be doing something meaningless such as bullying someone since he felt it was wasting his time since, as someone had thought inwardly, he was a nice guy. He was someone that wanted to become friends with everyone and make all of them happy.

However, such a fairy tale wish was impossible to realize.

Yet, it was also because he was such a nice guy that he had always avoided a confrontation. Whenever he saw someone in trouble, he would pretend that he saw nothing. Naturally, this only happened if he couldn't help, but if he could help, he would do something. Yet, as expected, it would only be at the superficial level.

However, was it bad?

No, this was a normal thing.

An individual has always tried to avoid trouble.

This was a normal thing. This was normal, but as expected, if one wanted to get such an amazing woman as Yukinoshita or Haruno, this trait wasn't something they wanted in their man.

A woman wanted a man that could protect her and their family.

To be honest, Hayama was handsome, smart, athletic, rich, gentle, kind, and many others. It was so easy for him if he wanted to get a girl, and his life wasn't bad either. However, if he wanted to get better, he had to fix this disadvantage of his.

Fortunately, except for the Yukinohita sisters, no one knew about this trait of his.

Hayama shook his head when he thought about Haruno before he put his attention on Yumiko. He knew about her feelings toward him, and she had always tried to approach him. If it was before, he had to say it was annoying since what he wanted was just to be friends with her, but now, he realized that she seemed to maintain a distance between them, and she also didn't seem to show much of an interest in him.

This also made him show interest in her and realize she was cuter than he had thought.

However, everything was too late.

Yumiko didn't even notice Hayama's gaze on her since she was too busy to manage the others, who had always caused trouble. Yet, one could tell that she could become a good mother in the future from her personality.

"By the way, Hina, did you buy a swimsuit?"

"Oh, I have brought my school swimsuit."

"....." Yui and Yumiko.

"Is that bad?" Saki asked with a frown.

"It's bad!"

"Are you a maniac?"

If they were just swimming in school, it would be okay, but they were going to swim in Okinawa!

Should they be more excited?

Especially when they had a boyfriend?

Shouldn't they want to show their best state to their boyfriend?

Yumiko sighed, but Ebina said, "But I think that Shishio will also like me when I wear a school swimsuit."

"There's no way—"

"I guess... he is."

"Yui?" Yumiko was speechless before she let out a long sigh, wondering whether this trip would be okay. However, she had to say she also had a lot of worries, especially when she wanted to get a chance to talk with him.

At the cultural festival, she thought she could talk with him, being together as she tried to confirm her feelings.

Her feelings, or obsession toward Hayama, weren't as strong as they used to be. She also didn't blush or shy away when he was kind, gentle, or doing something which pleased her. Instead, she was strangely calm, which made her realize how strong the emotion she felt toward that person was.

However, it was impossible for her to acknowledge this feeling.

She wasn't so easy of a girl that would switch her feelings toward someone just because she listened to the story of her friends at how awesome that person was. Instead, it was because she had confirmed how good he was, and he also happened to have entered the gap in her heart.

"By the way, Shishio is coming, right?"

When all of them entered the airport, she didn't see his figure anywhere, which made her worried. She also didn't see him with the first-grade group, but she was too shy to ask, so she only asked that question now.

"Yes, he should be on his own airplane." Saki nodded.

"..." Yui and Ebina.

"Oh? Did he go on a different flight? Is he busy with something?" Yumiko asked curiously, and the thought of him having his own private airplane didn't cross her mind.

"He is." Saki thought for a moment. "I remembered that he was talking about a sports club."

"Sports clubs? Did he plan to buy one?"

"Buy?"

Somehow, their conversation turned in a strange direction, but even so, they had to say the scale of what he was doing wasn't something they could understand, yet they knew their man was amazing.

As they were talking, Shishio was on his airplane with Shiiina and Yukinoshita. They were a bit late and didn't join the group. Instead, they joined him to help him with various things in his job. Yukinoshita aside, Shiina became a mascot who would accompany her everywhere.

"Still, I don't expect that you have an interest in the sports club."

"I think that it is pretty good since the majority of people love sports."

He was thinking of creating a media group that revolved around sports from football, baseball, basketball, rugby, F1, and many others on a global scale. While it was a lucrative business, he was more interested in the influence which he could receive from it. However, he knew that instead of thinking about business, he should think about the school trip.

"Well, instead of talking about the business. It is better to think about the school trip, right? It is rare for us to enjoy five days and four nights of the trip in Okinawa."

"Yes." 2x

Shiina and Yukinoshita were excited about this school trip.

"Is there a Baumkuchen there?"

"....." Shishio looked at Shiina for a moment before he nodded. "There is."

"Really?"

"Yes, but..."

"But?"

"Don't you want to try something else? Like the traditional sweets of Okinawa?"

"Traditional sweets of Okinawa?"

"Like what?"

"Chinsuko."

"....." 2x

The word "Chin" on the "Chinsuke" meant a "penis" in this language, which made the two of them flabbergasted.

"But I only want Shishio's thing," Shiina said while looking down at his pants.

"..."

Shishio knew that Shiina had misunderstood him, but it was okay since he was happy, and at the time, he wondered whether he should join the mile-high club today.

"Don't do something perverted here." Yukishita watched him sternly.

"..."

As he looked at Yukinoshita, he thought he should be able to do something perverted when they landed, right?

However, one thing was for sure; he anticipated this school trip.

"Okinawa, I am coming!"
