Chapter 63 – Student Council President’s Expectations

“Oh no, that’s tough. Alright, you can rest in the break room until it’s over. Everyone is fine with that, right?”
Sara-senpai just observed quietly.
She hadn’t said anything, but you could feel the pressure she was emanating.
“I-I’m fine…”
“If you’re not feeling well, just get some rest.”
“That’s right. We hardly ever use the break room anyway.”
“Enjoy your stay~.”
As if they had no choice on the matter, the students spoke words of acceptance.
Is it okay? I guess it is then.
“Don’t mind it, Takanashi-kun. It’s really alright. Besides, I have a little something to discuss with you.”
“President, if you have something to say, I can…”
Maybe it’s déjà vu since I think we’ve had this same exchange before.
We’re talking about the student council president here, so I have to listen.
“Sara-senpai, I’ll listen to what the President wants to discuss.”
“Okay. If that’s what Takanashi-san wants.”
!!!!
“…Satsukawa-senpai replied so quickly!?”
“…What’s his relationship with her!?”
“…I-It can’t be her lover!?”
“…Calm down, relax, calm down.”
“Y-You’re the one who needs to calm down.”
“…So that’s Takanashi-san from before.”
?
From before?
It’s like he knows me quite well, strangely.
It seems I’m being talked about behind my back all the time.
“As I thought. Then take your time in the break room.”
The president said as if he affirmed something in his mind.
“I’m sorry. Then I’ll take you up on your offer…”
“Takanashi-san, here. Please enter this room.”
Senpai opened the door inside the student council room.
I entered the room and looked around. Inside the room, files, probably documents, were lined up on shelves all over the walls. It was quite a lot.
But there was also a table and a large sofa.
This would be a good place to lie down.
“Takanashi-san, please rest on this sofa. The meeting shouldn’t take too long. I apologize for my selfishness.”
“Senpai, don’t be. I know you’re doing this for my sake…”
“Fufu… that’s right. Get some rest.”
It seems that she understood what I was saying even if I didn’t finish my words.
She figured out what was on my mind.
Senpai then opened her bag and took out a large towel.
“I brought it just in case, and I was right.”

She folded it a little and then rolled it up to make it like a pillow and handed it to me.
“Please use it as a substitute pillow. Though I would love to give you a lap pillow, I have a meeting to attend. Now, lie down and sleep.”
——————————————
Since the door was open, I could hear exchanges outside, albeit only voices.
Though it’s bad to eavesdrop on them, I can’t help but feel curious.
“She said lap pillow… LAP PILLOW!!!”
“Get a grip! There was never any chance for us anyway! There never was.”
“Will Satsukawa-san be that kind to me if she becomes my wife…? Envious! I envy him…”
“Hey, what do you think? Are they already together? Lovers, perhaps?”
“No way~, they’re probably still less than lovers.”
“Satsukawa-san, you are so different from usual. You look like a completely different person…”
Some are curious, while some are shocked.
Well, if you know the usual Satsukawa-san, her attitude towards Takanashi-kun is obviously different.
One look at Satsukawa-san, and you can see it.
However, both of them said they were just friends.
Well, if they’re that close, it won’t be long before they become aware of it, probably with just an event as a trigger.
More than that, I think this is a chance.
I’d like you to join the student council, Takanashi-kun.
I recalled my phone conversation with Natsumi the other day.
——————————————
“Haa? Takanashi-kun in the student council?”
“Yes, I would love to have his help.”
That’s what I’ve been thinking about since the other day.
“What are you up to, Daichi? You know Takanashi-kun is my friend, right?”
“Of course, I know. Don’t worry, Natsumi, I wouldn’t do anything strange to your friend since I don’t want to die yet.”
“It’s not me you should be wary of. It’s Sara. If you get Takanashi-kun involved in something strange, who knows what she’ll do? Because that girl will seriously show no mercy if anything happens to Takanashi-kun. Maybe even I can’t stop her.”
“– I’ll keep that in mind.”
I feel somewhat scared when she says that much. However, I can’t imagine what Satsukawa-san would do if anything happened to Takanashi-kun.
“Upon hearing that, do you still want to continue?”
“It’s not like I’m planning something bad. I saw Satsukawa-san the other day when she was with him, and I’ve never seen her so straightforward, or rather, so kind and easy to deal with.”
“That’s only natural, since Sara likes Takanashi-kun. Well, I only learned it because of Takanashi-kun, but it seems that Sara has that side of her. That’s why he’s so different from the rest of us. Amazing, right?”
“Yes. That’s why I thought that Takanashi-kun must join the student council and assist Satsukawa-san.”
“…Are you planning to use Mr. Takanashi-kun as an aid?”
Natsumi accurately points out my aim – “aid.”
She’s as sharp as ever.
“As expected of you, Natsumi. Through Takanashi-kun, it would be easier for other student council members to make requests and confirmations to Satsukawa-san. And also, his presence would improve her mood and reduce her concerns. If she’s concerned about something, it’s probably about Takanashi-kun, and if so, being with him will help.”
I made a lot of detours, but my real intention is still to use him as an aid.
Satsukawa-san is not good with people due to her strictness and the barriers she has against others, as I have heard a little about from Natsumi.
It’s tough. Even students who are used to her to some extent still fear her. However, if you put him in between…
“Hn~… Using Takanashi-kun to make Sara do well… Though I wouldn’t say I like it, Sara will probably be happy. That girl doesn’t like being the vice president after all…”

“What do you think?”
From the looks of it, I can get Natsumi’s consent.
“Ask Takanashi-kun directly. If he says it’s okay, I won’t complain either. But if you don’t want Sara’s wrath, don’t do anything unnecessary.”

In the meantime, let’s see if I can find an opportunity and set up a meeting.
