Chapter 387: It has been a while, the literature club
“Where have you been?”
When Shishio and Usa came to the literature clubroom, everyone was already there, including their club advisor, Kiriya Reiji.
“We bought ice cream.” Shishio showed the ice cream he had bought and asked, “Who wants it?”
“Me!”
They raised their hands at the same time.
“Usa bought them. You should thank him,” Shishio said.
“Huh? What’s wrong, Usa? Has something happy happened to you?” Maiko asked.
Everyone was also looking at Usa curiously, wondering why this guy suddenly bought everyone ice cream.
“Er…” Usa wanted to cry since the ice creams were the payment of his consultation with Shishio. However, how could he say that?
“Aha!” Nana suddenly realized something and asked, “Did you get a girlfriend?”
“No! I-I don’t have a girlfriend!” Usa quickly said flusteredly while looking in Ritsu’s direction.
However, Ritsu was eating ice cream while reading a book quietly.
“…”
“You don’t need to react so much, right?” Nana ate the ice cream then said, “But thank you for the ice cream.” While she thought it would be a miracle if Usa had a girlfriend, she felt it was too cruel to say it, so she didn’t say anything.
“No problem.” Usa sighed in relief since the misunderstanding had been solved, but he felt sad when Ritsu didn’t even look in his direction or care when everyone thought of him having a girlfriend.
“While Usa doesn’t have a girlfriend, I have heard that someone has many girlfriends in this club,” Kiriya said as he ate ice cream and looked at the scumbag inside the clubroom.
“….” Usa felt an arrow had pierced into his chest.
Shishio patted Usa’s back, then looked at Kiriya speechlessly and asked, “Does the school forbid one to date many girls, Kiriya-sensei?”
“No.” Kiriya shook his head and said, “The school doesn’t forbid their students to date more than one girl, but I’m just curious that you can still live until now. I have heard the news that a scumbag has been stabbed lately, so you need to be careful.” His expression was calm as he showed a faint smile on his face, showing excitement about what would happen to Shishio and his girlfriends.
“……” Everyone.
“…I’ll remember those words to my heart and treasure them well,” Shishio said speechlessly.
“That’s good to know, but I’m curious who your girlfriends are? Are all the female members of the literature club your girlfriend?” Kiriya asked while looking at every female in this club.
“……” Everyone.
While everyone was speechless and lowered their heads shyly, Usa felt his chest tighten, afraid of the nightmare that he had to appear in reality.
“No, not everyone.” Shishio shook his head then looked at his five girlfriends, who gave him a nod. “Should I introduce them now?”
“Sure.” Kiriya nodded while looking at the female members curiously.
“They’re Nana, Mashiro, Miu, Saki, and Mai,” Shishio said in one breath.
“……”
While Usa knew that Shishio had dated many girls, he didn’t expect that it would be this many!
Usa was also dumbfounded when Mai was included in his harem.
However, Usa sighed in relief when Ritsu wasn’t included in Shishio’s harem.
While Usa sighed in relief, Kiriya was amazed by Shishio’s ability to make those five girls date him willingly and share him together. He let out a sigh and said, “As expected, you’re special, Shishio-kun.”
“…Thank you?” Shishio was speechless, then asked, “You’re not going to say anything?”
“I think it is okay. Love is free, after all. If you’re happy with your relationship, I won’t say anything, but as your teacher, all I can say is that doesn’t hurt them, alright?” Kiriya looked at Shishio and said, “They have trusted and fallen in love with you, so don’t betray their trust and love.”
“Yes, I won’t.” Shishio nodded with a faint smile, thinking that Kiriya was really different.
Everyone also looked at Kiriya with different eyes since he was different from what they had imagined.
“But I must admit that I might fall for you since you’re so manly for admitting that you’re a scumbag to the whole school, Shishio-kun,” Kiriya said with a gentle smile.
“…..”
While Kiriya was a good teacher, he was also a human, so he wasn’t perfect.
The ass of Shishio and Usa tightened, and they had a hard time maintaining their expression.
The girls were shocked and looked at Kiriya in surprise, but somehow they started to imagine what if Shishio and Kiriya were together…
“…..” Everyone.
“Shishio is mine,” Shiina said as she held Shishio’s arm while looking at Kiriya warily.
“Mashiro…” Shishio was touched by Shiina’s action and felt that this girl was the best.
“…….” Everyone.
Kiriya chuckled at Shiina’s reaction, then said, “Don’t worry, I won’t steal him from you, but you can share him with other girls, so isn’t it okay for you to share him with me too?”
Shiina suddenly fell into deep thought when she heard Kiriya’s question.
“Um… Shiina-san?” Shishio was scared when Shiina didn’t reject the possibility.
Shiina realized her mistake, then patted her chest and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll protect Shishio.”
Shishio was glad that Shiina still had some common sense on her head.
“It’s not fair! Me too!” Nana also joined the two.
Miu, Saki, and Mai looked at each other for a moment before they also joined. While they were shy, they also didn’t want to lose.
“….”
The rest were speechless and felt their teeth were itchy when they saw this scene, feeling quite envious.
However, Usa really wanted to bow down to Shishio and begged him to become his teacher right now, especially when he thought about Shishio’s wise words before. He glanced at Ritsu and knew that there was still a chance for him.
‘I can’t give up so easily!’ Usa thought.
“Cough! Cough!” Shishio felt a bit embarrassed somehow when he was hugged by many of his girlfriends right in front of Kiriya.
However, Kiriya didn’t think too much and suddenly asked, “Right, Sakurajima-san, can I ask you something?”
“Yes?” Mai looked at Kiriya with some confusion since she wondered why this teacher called her.
“I heard that you’re going to star in the movie adaptation of “Izu Girl”?” Kiriya asked.
Mai was dumbfounded and asked, “Huh? How did you know, Sensei?” Still, she frowned and moved closer to Shishio, wondering whether Kiriya was a creep.
“Don’t misunderstand, I’m the author of the “Izu Girl,” Kiriya quickly said, since who would want to be misunderstood as a creep?
“…” Mai looked at Shishio, and her expression clearly asked whether it was true or not.
Shishio nodded with a smile and said, “Kiriya-sensei is an author, and his pen name is You Hasukawa.”
“Huh? You know that, and you don’t even tell me?” Mai looked at Shishio speechlessly.
“Surprise,” Shishio said with an even brighter smile.
“……”
Mai really wanted to smack the head of her boyfriend, but then she quickly coughed and put her professional expression. “I’m sorry for the rudeness, Sensei.” She also took out her name card and gave it respectfully yet amiably to Kiriya.
There was a hierarchy in the entertainment industry.
The writer had the highest hierarchy, which was also why they were called a “sensei.”
On the other hand, an actress and actor were in the middle position right after the director.
As for the lowest hierarchy, without a doubt, it was an idol.
While they were all cute and seemed bright on the outside, they were at the bottom place in the entertainment industry in this country.
Some people might want to complain, but this was how society works, and there was nothing they could do unless they became powerful enough to ignore all of that hierarchy shit.
“It’s alright. You don’t need to be so polite with me since you’re my student.” Kiriya only smiled, took Mai’s name care, and said, “More importantly, can you tell me more about how you view the character in my book?”
“Yes.” Mai nodded and started to talk about her view about the main protagonist of the book “Izu Girl” that she had shown Shishio recently. She had told Shishio that her new movie was an adaptation of the “Izu Girl” novel, but she didn’t expect to meet the author right in the clubroom. Still, she didn’t get nervous and freely talked about her understanding of the character that she was going to play in her returning movie.
Everyone was looking at Mai and Kiriya in a daze since the two were talking about Mai’s movie.
Shishio didn’t think too much since he knew how passionate Mai was about her career as an actress. “Miu-senpai, what should we do now?”
Miu was startled when Shishi suddenly asked this question since she also didn’t expect Mai and Kiriya to start talking to each other about jobs. However, she was the leader of this club, so she thought for a moment and said, “Le-Let’s do your own thing, then!”
“….” Everyone.
“By the way, is this okay, Shishio?” Saki asked.
“What do you mean?” Shishio asked.
“I mean, are you okay with Mai becoming an actress again?” Saki asked.
Shishio wondered how many times he had been asked this question, but he nodded and said calmly, “I will be lying if I’m not worried and lonely since she won’t be by my side because of her job. However, I’m not going to stop her from achieving her dream, and if you also have a dream that you want to achieve, then I won’t stop you, but you must remember that before you’re my woman and there’s no need for me to say more, right?”
Saki blushed and nodded while biting her lower lip since Shishio’s hand had been caressing her thigh.
While they talked to each other, Saki and Kiriya ended their conversation. Then Maiko couldn’t help but ask, “So what kind of movie is “Izu Girl”? Is it a romance?” After all, she had never read Kiriya’s book, so she was unfamiliar.
“…..” Kiriya was slightly hurt somehow.
“I don’t do romance or movies with many fan services.” Mai shook her head as she glanced at Shishio, then said, “As for what kind of story “Izu Girl” is, it is a story about the dilemma of the girl who is entrusted to become the priestess on the autumn festival in Izu.”
They didn’t feel interested in the “Izu Girl.” Instead, they asked, “You don’t do romance movies?”
“Isn’t it obvious? I have a boyfriend now.” Mai blushed then said, “Unless…”
“Unless?”
“Unless that boyfriend is my partner in the movie,” Mai said while looking at Shishio shyly.
“….” Shishio.
“….” Everyone.
Still, if one person wanted to complain, it would be Kiriya since he could see that none of them had an interest in the adaptation of his novel.
However, the girls were curious if Shishio decided to make a romance movie with Mai?
As for whether it was possible or not, with just Shishio’s face alone, they were sure many entertainment companies would sign him if he wanted to become an actor.
“Let’s talk about that matter now since it seems Kiriya-sensei has something to talk about with us,” Shishio said since he felt that it wasn’t the time to talk about a movie right now since the time and occasion wasn’t right.
Kiriya looked at Shishio for a moment, then looked at everyone and said, “That’s true. I want to ask whether there’s any of you that want to become a writer?”
“….Eh?”
