Can we talk for a bit?

Mitaka, who was holding the script in his hand, was full of excitement, thinking about Misaki's reaction after she read his script. After what had happened in the morning, he tried to force himself to write, and with his will alone, he was able to complete the script for Misaki's anime. Even though it was complete, there were still several parts that hadn't been written, and there might be some mistake since he wrote them in a hurry, but he believed that she would be satisfied with the result.

Mitaka went to ask Misaki, but she didn't answer his call. He couldn't go into the female area, so he decided to wait for her in the living room, but when he was about to enter, he stopped since...

"How is it?" Shishio asked.

Mitaka raised his eyebrow, wondering what Shishio asked. Still, then when he peeked, he could see that everyone was holding a manuscript in their hands and could guess that they should be a manuscript for a novel or something since he had heard from Misaki before that Shishio was going to write a story. Still, then he frowned since he realized that Misaki had always been talking about Shishio lately.

Mitaka then shook his head then thought about Shishio's story. Even though he had to admit that Shishio was very talented, he didn't think that Shishio could write. After all, humans always had a limit.

Shishio might be very smart at school, good at cooking, painting, even music, but Mitaka didn't think that Shishio was good at writing since Mitaka knew how hard it was to write, but...

"It's a great story," Shiro-san said.

'Great story?'

Mitaka was dumbfounded when he heard Shiro-san praise Shishio's story. If it was someone else, then he might not think too much, but he knew Shiro-san's identity, and he also knew the meaning of praise of normal people with Shiro-san was different.

Shiro-san might be a pervert, but he was a professional writer. His novel also had won the "Akutagawa Prize," which gave him a loud reputation in the world of literature. If Shishio got praise and confirmation from such a person, then without a doubt, Shishio's story could be published directly into a novel.

Mitaka sighed and wondered whether this was the distance between an ordinary and genius. He was working really hard for the past few years, but his result was only so-so, and the reason why he could be called genius was because of Misaki's reputation. In other words, he was only Misaki's tail.

However, Shishio, who was only a first-year student, could write something that Mitaka was unable to achieve easily.

If Shishio knew what Mitaka thought, he could only smile, but he didn't say anything since nothing was fair in this world.

Mitaka was standing there, but he felt even more uncomfortable when he learned that the story that Shishio wrote was a romance story. He looked at the script in his hands while listening to everyone's conversation inside the living room.

"Shishio!"

Suddenly Mitaka heard Misaki's voice which made his heart stop for a moment, and his heart became even more nervous. He didn't want to hear it, or rather, he wanted to believe in Misaki, but...

"Shishio, please write a script for my anime!"

"...."

When those words fell, Mitaka felt that everything was simply useless. His effort, his hard work, his blood, his sweat, and everything was pointless. So he crumpled the script in his hand hard and walked away without hesitation before he even heard what Shishio was about to say.

---

Shishio didn't know what Mitaka was thinking, but he had a feeling for what that guy was thinking.

"Huh? Why?" Misaki was dumbfounded when she heard that Shishio had rejected her.

"It's not why." Shishio looked at Misaki speechlessly and said, "Didn't you say that you're going to use Mitaka-senpai's script before? So why did you suddenly ask me?"

"I..." The words that were about to come out of her mouth stopped, and she couldn't say anything. She thought about Mitaka then looked at the manuscript in her hands, she clearly saw the distance between the two, and even if Mitaka was able to complete his script, somehow she had a feeling how it would be, so...

"Shishio, I saw your motorcycle! Bring me on the ride!"

When Misaki was about to say something, Mayumi suddenly entered with excitement, especially after she saw Shishio's motorcycle. She had to admit that his motorcycle was very cool and she wanted to ride it with him.

"Shishio, is that your motorcycle outside?" Chihiro also came and asked since she didn't expect Shishio to bring his motorcycle right at night.

Misaki was annoyed when both Mayumi and Chihiro suddenly interrupted her, but when she was about to say something...

"Let's eat dinner first and talk later since it won't be delicious if it has gotten cold," Shishio said.

Hearing the word "food" from his mouth, they knew that it was important to eat their dinner first!

---

Everyone ate their dinner with a happy smile since it was delicious.

Shishio collected his manuscript while everyone was eating.

Shiro-san didn't say much since he knew that manuscript was very important.

"Oga-kun," Ritsu called out his name so suddenly.

"What's wrong, Senpai?" Shishio looked at Ritsu curiously.

"If your book is finished, can you let me read it?" Ritsu asked.

"...."

Chihiro and Mayumi looked at both Shishio and Ritsu curiously.

"Book? What do you mean?" Mayumi was confused since she didn't hear that Shishio was writing a book.

Shishio ignored Mayumi's question and looked at Ritsu. "Yes, you can read it, Senpai."

"Um." Ritsu nodded, but she wanted to say something, but she wasn't sure what to say.

"Right, Senpai, how was the club earlier?" Shishio asked curiously since he didn't know what had happened in the literature club.

"Hey, don't ignore me! Tell me, what were you saying before?!" Mayumi quickly stood up and held Shishio's head under her armpit, pressing his face against her breasts.

"Mayumi-san, stop!" Shishio was dumbfounded and quickly tapped Mayumi's arm several times since if this woman didn't let him go, then he was afraid that his dick would get hard. Even though this woman was a bit disappointing, her face was beautiful, and her body was sexy, so it was normal for him to show a reaction, right?

Shishio's libido was very high, and it had been a long time since he had done it, so if this woman did this, then...

"Hmph! Then quickly tell me!" Mayumi snorted and kept trying to hold him in place, but Chihiro grabbed the back of her shirt.

"Ma - Yu - Mi..." Chihiro's voice was so scary at that moment, and she stared at Mayumi without blinking. "...Do you want me to raise your rent?"

*Gulp!*

Mayumi was dumbfounded before she bowed down. "I'M SORRY!"

Shishio looked at Chihiro and Mayumi and sighed. "Well, Mayumi-san, I'm writing a story, so I asked Shiro-san's advice."

"Huh? Why did you ask that pervert's advice?" Mayumi was dumbfounded.

"Ah... it's great being looked down on!" Shiro-san flushed from excitement.

"..."

"Cough! Cough! Shiro-san is a famous writer, and he also has won the Akutagawa Prize, you know?" Shishio said.

Mayumi's pupils were opened wide, and she was dumbfounded. She then looked at Shiro-san, who was smiling, looking at him with an expression of disbelief, before she pointed her finger at Shiro-san and said, "You mean, this pervert isn't a NEET?"

"Ah... it's great!" Shiro-san was very excited, and his breathing was very heavy at that moment.

Ritsu, Roberta, and even Shiina moved closer to Shishio without hesitation.

But everyone nodded at Mayumi's question.

"....." Mayumi seemed to be in shock, and she dropped on the chair as if she had lost a battle.

Everyone looked at Mayumi's reaction and was speechless.

"Well, I'll return to my room now." Shishio was about to go back to his room, but Shiina grabbed his t-shirt. "What's wrong, Mashiro?" He looked at Shiina curiously and wondered what this girl wanted to do.

"Go on a date with me," Shiina said.

"....."

Somehow the strange atmosphere became stagnant, and everyone opened their eyes wide at Shiina.

Even Mayumi, whose body was all white, was also very dumbfounded at that moment.

Shishio also blinked his eyes, staring at Shiina, wondering what this girl was planning to do.

*Plop!*

When they heard the sound of something or someone dropped, but they didn't care much what had dropped. They quickly woke up and exclaimed at the same time, "What?!"

Shishio also quickly calmed down and raised his eyebrows when he noticed Sorata, who was running away, shook his head inwardly. He then looked at Shiina and asked, "Is this confession, or are you asking me for a date?"

"Date," Shiina said simply. "I want to go on a date with Shishio."

"..."

"You want to go on a date with me?" Shishio asked.

"Um." Shiina nodded.

Ritsu wanted to say something, but she closed her mouth. Of course, she didn't have a right to stop them since they were only someone living in the same dorm, but even so, she felt very uncomfortable.

"Shishio, have you seduced Mashiro?" Chihiro tried to control her emotion, even though she was on the verge of eruption, but regardless, she knew that it was their freedom to fall in love, but... but...

"...." Shishio ignored Chihiro and looked at Shiina, who had been looking at him straight. "Mashiro, do you want to go on a date with me?"

"Yes." Shiina nodded.

"Why?" Shishio asked.

When Shishio asked this question, everyone also looked at Shiina, wondering why Shiina asked this request so suddenly.

Shiina looked at everyone for a while and said, "For my manga."

"....." Everyone except for Shishio.

"Is Saturday okay with you?" Shishio asked.

"Um." Shiina nodded without hesitation.

"So let's have a date on Saturday," Shishio said.

"Um." Shiina nodded.

"Then I'll go back first, good night," Shishio said while holding his manuscript, patting Shiina's head for a bit then left.

"Good night." Shiina nodded again, but her mood was very happy at that moment.

Shishio was about to leave, but his t-shirt was grabbed again by Mayumi, Ritsu, and Chihiro. He looked at the three females and asked with a confused expression, "What's wrong?"

"..." Mayumi, Ritsu, and Chihiro couldn't say anything in return.

"Hmm?" Shishio looked at the three of them and wasn't in a hurry.

"Are you really going on a date with Mashiro?" Chihiro asked.

"Well, it is just a date, right? And it is for Mashiro's manga. I'm just helping her." Shishio looked at the three of them weirdly. After all, he was only going on a date, so there was no need to be so exaggerated, right?

Looking at Shishio's reaction, they weren't sure what to say for a moment.

"Have you gone on a date before?" Mayumi suddenly asked.

"No," Shishio said.

"..."

Shishio looked at everyone and said, "Date is just an outing, right? Why do you have to react so much?"

"....."

"Well, I'll go back first," Shishio said and left.

"..."

Looking at Shishio's back, they somehow had a complicated expression. They knew that the date between Shishio and Shiina was just an outing, but somehow, they felt jealous of Shiina at that moment.

As for Shiina, she was just very happy at that moment.

As for Shiro-san, he could only sigh at Shishio and thought that this guy was very sinful, but at the same time, he was also happy that he was being ignored again.

---

Shishio was in his room and continued to write his story on his laptop, but suddenly someone knocked on the door of his room. "Yes?"

"...."

Shishio didn't hear a response, which caused him to raise his eyebrow, but the knock on his door didn't stop. He stopped and wondered whether it was Shiina, but when he opened the door, he was dumbfounded when he saw that it was Misaki. "Misaki-senpai?"

Misaki smiled and quickly entered Shishio's room.

Shishio, who couldn't react, looked at Misaki, who entered his room without hesitation. "What are you doing, Senpai?" But he also quickly closed his door since he didn't want anyone to know that Misaki had entered his room.

"This is my first time in your room, Shishio-kun!" Misaki looked around curiously then saw his bed.

"....." Shishio saw Misaki, who stared at his bed, and somehow he got a bad premonition.

"Yahoo!" Misaki jumped directly into Shishio's bed.

"..."

Misaki then rolled around his bed before she took his pillow and smelled it hard. "Hmm, it is Shishio-kun's smell! It's dangerous! You smell really good!"

"..."

Shishio was speechless and asked, "What are you doing Senpai?" He wanted to throw this stupid senior outside.

"Shishio-kun, I haven't given up yet." Misaki quickly raised her body, looked at Shishio straight, and said, "I want you to write a script for me." She uttered those words without hesitation, but suddenly the door of his room was knocked on again.

"Oga-kun, it's me, Mitaka. Can I talk with you for a bit?"

"....." Shishio and Misaki.
