The Girls Fell in Love With His Songs, and Before Long They Fell in love With Him - CH 37

The summer vacation, which had been so long, ended easily and without warning.

With that, the internship is gone and I am back to the same routine as before.

If there is one thing that has changed, it is the start of seminars in college classes.

Simply put, it is like a small-group class, which is common among liberal arts students.

Some of them even go on trips with seminar members, but that’s far from me…..

Or rather, in the first place, anything that might cause such flirting between men and women is forbidden in the seminar that Professor Omori is in charge of. (I won’t say why, to her credit.)

The first such seminar had begun in the new school year.

“So I’ll have each group turn in a report for each class. I have created two groups of five on my end, so please change seats once.”

I Follow Professor Omori’s instructions and move to my seat as posted on the whiteboard.

“Ah, Nagishiro kun ……!”

“Oh, Kasugai san. We’re in the same group.”

“Y-Yes….! F-Finally….”

“Hmm? What did you say?”

“I-It’s nothing!”

She is Kasugai Sumire, who for some reason sometimes behaves strangely. She is the girl who always accompanies me when I go to ask Omori sensei questions.

Of course, we were not that close, but it was very nice to have a familiar face.

“Then I’ll be in your care”

“Y-Yes! M-Me too!”

Perhaps this was Omori sensei’s consideration for me, who has few friends.

But again, being a group of five, not everyone is in a group with everyone they want to be.

“Wow, I’m with him.”

“Eh. Wow, Nagishiro……”

“Worst ……”

Apparently, three other girls in the same group did not think well of the same thing she did and complained.

Well, that’s right. I wouldn’t want to be in the same group with a scary-looking guy like me either.

“Oh, Hayasaka is in that group over there. I would have preferred that one”

“That handsome guy? Wow, then you’re totally screwed”

“Haha, Emi, that’s terrible.”

Speaking of Hayasaka, is that the very handsome Hayasaka? Well, that’s definitely a miss.

“A-As expected, they are saying too much, aren’t they? …… I-I’m going to give them a warning…..!”

“No, it’s fine. I mean, you can’t give warnings or do anything if you’re that nervous.”

And it wouldn’t help if Kasugai san bought into the hate by mistake.

“Haaaa….”

Unfortunately, the road ahead is not easy, but that’s OK.

After that, Professor Omori gave a brief explanation of the whole process and handed down the day’s assignments.

In the meantime, a group of people formed a group on line and agreed to divide up the work and each summarize the relevant parts of the report, but…

“Obviously, that’s a lot for my page. ……”

I feel like I have 3 times more than others. Why is that? …….

I mean, you think I’m scary, so why would you want to harass me like that? If it were me, I’d do the assignment for him.

That, or the three of them are not afraid.

Well, I don’t have a problem with the amount of work I have to do myself, but I feel like I’m going to be somewhat fractured.

“All right, let’s take a break.”

I think I had some green tea that I had bought before.

It’s not that I like green tea, but something warm in my body is kind of calming.

“Hoee–”

I’m a little depressed with a big fishing report assignment in front of me. Let’s make a little music.

“Yes, ding-dong.”

“!?”

The intercom speaks!?….. It can’t be !

“Either ring the intercom or give me a more decent greeting.”

“Sorry Sorry”

When I opened the front door, Kotoha was there. I knew by her voice that it was Kotoha, but it was unusual for her to come in the evening, given her busy schedule.

“Well, you’re quick”

“I finished work early~”

No, I’m not surprised. I would rather be surprised if that Kotoha comes after contacting me.

“Hey, was Rin kun in the middle of writing a song?”

“Hmm? Yeah, just for a change. Come up for now.”

Despite appearances, Kotoha is an actress. She must be tired.

Kotoha sits down on the sofa as soon as she goes up to her room. She also checks the smell of the room, but since I made sure to set up a deodorant, she probably doesn’t know that Azusa is here.

That’s me. I am growing up.

“Hmmm. It smells a little funny, but …… well, maybe it’s just my imagination.”

What’s more, I told Azusa not to come today. Perfect.

“Do you want something to eat? I can make something light.”

“Yeay~! It’s Rin kun’s homemade food~!”

I’ve been helping Azusa with her cooking, and I’ve learned to cook some of it myself. It is an improvement of girl power.

“Okay, just give me a minute.”

Let’s make it quick and easy.

“So, Rin kun. You look kind of tired, what’s wrong?”

“Ah? I’ve got some college work to do.”

I don’t know about myself, but she said I looked somewhat tired. Well, college has just started.

“Let me see~. What are you doing?”

“Hey!”

While I was fiddling with my computer after lunch, Kotoha peeked in. too close, too close, stop, stop, stop.

“What, you’re going to do all of this?”

“Ah? Ahh, well yeah”

“Eh, Isn’t that hard?”

Kotoha rolls her eyes at the 20+ page slide. The script looks more daunting with all the text.

Maybe she didn’t know that college students have it harder than she thought.

“Well. I got pushed around a little bit.”

“Oh, isn’t that awful?”

“It happens all the time. I don’t really care, so it’s okay.”

For some reason, Kotoha is more angry and frustrated than I am, the one who was hit.

“Maybe I should complain.”

“I think I’d be seriously freaked out if you came out of nowhere, so don’t do that.”

“I mean, college is such a crappy place.”

“Don’t say that. Besides, it’s not a good idea to lump them all together.”

“Is it?”

I’m talking about the fact that some people are pushy about assignments and others are not.

“I hope so.”

I was grateful to Kotoha, who would have been angry with me for my sake, and wrote my report until late that night.
