When I reached the Student Council Room, I was just right on time as they were just gearing up for today’s meeting.
After the event that transpired four days ago, the awkward silence that suddenly filled the room upon my appearance was a given.
The Secretary looked on quietly while his girlfriend, Watanabe flashed a knowing smile. It’s almost as though she’s cheering for me to not dilly-dally and hurry up to sit on the empty seat on Shizu’s right.
It didn’t come off as a surprise that only the Vice President showed an abject repulsion over my appearance. But perhaps afraid that Shizu would shut him down again, he kept mum.
Meanwhile, Shizu remained at her seat, amused as she watched me walk towards her.
But instead of sitting down so that they could start the meeting with my inclusion, I walked to the side and began preparing tea for everyone.
