While looking at the windows, he thinks about the two-person affection that he just checked out.

'I didn't expect that Onodera would have a crush on me... huh.'

For Shin, Onodera is one of his closest friends in middle school who also knew all of his other close friends. But this made him wonder what he did to make Onodera have a crush on him anyway... Well, he doesn't know how to handle this since right now he has a girlfriend.

Though he knows that there was a sudden change of law a year ago regarding the form of marriage that allowed men to have multiple partners due to a Prime minister name T*tsuke. But he still thinks that not everyone can cope with that sudden change of law instantly especially the problem that polygamy has. To be able to have a polygamy marriage you have to have a minimum requirement of financial support needed and also the consent of all the girls.

Shin remembered the uproar that happened a year ago due to the news of polygamy that was a bit chaotic, though these days the uproar is already calmed down.

That is why, unlike other girls that Shin rejected, Onodera is a different case since he considers her as one of his close friends, and that's why he doesn't want to hurt her feelings. He also doesn't know if Satou knows that Onodera has a crush on him or vice versa. But In the end, he decides he is going to tell her when the time is right.

On the other hand, Yukino and Shin aren't that close at all. The only time that he had an interaction with her is due to him accidentally seeing her holding a mascot of a certain teddy bear in a shopping center inside the mall. Of course, when that happened he only pretended that he didn't see her and walked away, but in the end, it was too late since she probably saw him seeing her holding the mascot bear. He doesn't know what she found interesting about him but there might be one reason for that, is it probably due to him beating her score at obtaining the number 1 spot for all subjects.

In the end, he could only sigh tiredly, and go back to sleep while emptying everything in his head. He didn't expect that he would get such a strong power and now the power itself makes him feel complicated. The skill [Eyes of Affection] then deactivated by itself as Shin slept soundly.

The teacher who was teaching the class noticed Shin sleeping in the classroom, but he only sighed as he ignored Shin sleeping in the class since if he ever tries to make an argument with Shin, the only thing he will get is humiliation, so that's why he tends to ignore Shin and just leaves him alone, and the other reason is that he is smart enough that he can skip class if he wants to. That is why there is only one teacher that he could report this to and that teacher is enough to make his discipline straighten again for a while.

Most of the girls in the class who saw Shin sleeping wanted to see his sleeping face, but couldn't due to the teacher, and most of the boys only ignored the sight of him sleeping. Though the person who either knows him personally or is acquainted with him can only either sigh, smile wryly, or look at him wryly.

Soon all the rest of the period then ends as Shin then wakes up from his sleep. Now it's already afternoon and the only thing that he needs to do is wait for the school to be over in his homeroom class.

"Did you have a good afternoon's sleep?" Asked Suna who looked at Shin.

"Ughh... No, it's a bit of a depressing kind of sleep..."

Suna, who heard this, looked at Shin with a confused look apparent on his face.

"Did something happen?"

"Well, it's something that I will rather not talk about and forget." Shin could only show a wry smile to Suna which he then sighs.

"Well if you say so? Anyway Takeo you also can wake up." Said Suna with a wry smile on his face, he then wakes up Takeo who was asleep due to how boring the class was.

Suddenly the person that Shin feared the most came up in front of him, and that was Onodera. She comes up toward Shin with her friend Ruri Miyamoto while she asks him something with a worried face.

"Are you really okay Tenjou-kun, you almost slept for the entire day. "

Shin slowly calms himself and replies back to Onodera with a wry smile.

"Don't worry about it, Onodera, I just lack some sleep."

Shin could only wryly laugh as he replied back to Onodera's question. Truthfully right now it felt nerve-wracking talking to Onodera, due to the result of the screen panel that his [Eyes of Affection] skill gives to him since he didn't know how to handle Onodera now.

"What's wrong with him?" Ruri then looked at Suna who just woke Takeo up while asking him a question regarding Shin's condition with her stoic face.

"Well, it seems he is depressed about something," Suna replies back to Ruri with a confused face since he is unsure why Shin is depressed after he just made a happy expression before.

Ruri who heard this only nods and looks back at Onodera and Shin's interaction with her stoic face. She only wondered if something big was happening recently to Shin and then looked worriedly at Onodera.

"Is that so? If that is the case, then I'm glad you are alright... Please get more rest next time okay?" Onodera then looked at Shin with a smile.

"Sure." Shin who hears this could only slowly smile at Onodera. Her kind and caring personality right now made him make him remember the first time he met her in middle school. If this were him before meeting Satou, he would probably fall in love with Onodera. That is why when hearing this he is more determined to tell her that he is already dating Satou.

"On--" Before Shin is able to say something, someone opens the door of the class. The person who opened the door is their own homeroom teacher.

"Take your seat." When the homeroom teacher arrived, she ordered everyone to sit back in their own chair, which made them sit on their own chair. Shin is irritated at the person who just arrived and destroys his chance of telling it to Onodera, but he cannot since the teacher in front of him is someone he knows well and he knows how scary she is when she gets mad. The homeroom teacher in front of him is Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Shizuka then holds a homeroom meeting for a while before ending it. Before I was able to leave the classroom to tell Onodera, she called my name.

"Shin, come here."

Shin who is called could only sigh while moving toward Shizuka, he knew that back then at class he shouldn't have slept. He then asks Suna and Takeo to wait a bit outside the classroom which they agree to.

"What is Shizuka-nee?"

"Shin... Please call me Shizuka-sensei at school." Shizuka could only look at Shin with a smile, but somehow that smile that Shizuka gives to Shin gave him goosebumps.

The reason why Shin called Shizuka, 'Shizuka-nee' is because he already knew her for a long time. When he was adopted by his grandpa, he sometimes met with Shizuka due to his grandpa being a close friend of Shizuka's father. At that time Shin grew attached to her and thought of her as his own older sister. But after his grandpa passed away, the one who became his legal guardian is Shizuka herself.

"Fine... Now, what can I do for you Shizuka-sensei... Is it because I slept the entire school period?"

"So you know your wrongdoings...*sigh* What's wrong... Did something happen?" Shizuka asked Shin with a worried face. She knew that Shin himself is rarely sleeping at school, and if he did sleep he probably sleeps for a maximum of 2 periods in school. So sleeping for the entire school period is unusual which made her worried about him.

"Don't worry it's nothing, I already solved the problem, so you don't need to worry," Shin reassured Shizuka that he already solved the problem by himself.

"I see... Anyway please don't sleep in the class anymore, since I don't really want a group of teachers ranting." Shizuka who sees Shin's expression could only sigh in relief that Shin is fine.

"Anyway, why am I the only one who was called here when Takeo also slept in class..." Said Shin while complaining to Shizuka.

"At least he did not sleep for the entire schooltime like you did."

"Well... I can't deny that."

"Anyway, I still have my part-time job, so I will get going now." Said Shin as he then walked away from Shizuka.

"I'm not forbidding you from doing a part-time job, but please don't get home late okay?"

"Okay."
