What If I Told Tomori-san, The Girl Who's Cold Only Towards Me, That I Knew Her Secret Account? - V2 Chapter 2.2

The Hidden Side of Everyone’s Admiration 2

While pondering this, as I was about to knock on the door of the Student Council room——

“I-I like the Student Council President!”

The voice from inside made my hand stop involuntarily.

“I’m sorry. I’m happy that you confessed, but I’m not planning to date anyone right now.”

“…Ugh! N-No, I’m sorry too. The President is a serious, flawless goddess. There’s no way good-for-nothing like me could be a match for you——”

“Please don’t blame yourself.”

I couldn’t see what was happening inside.

However, the voice of the girl who rejected the confession sounded incredibly gentle.

“Don’t call yourself good-for-nothing. You’re the ace of the club, and you had great results at the inter-high last year. You might get a little passionate sometimes, but I know you’re a really good person.”

Her voice had a captivating and mature tone that anyone couldn’t help but be enchanted by.

It seemed like the perfect follow-up to turn down a confession.

But——

“T-Then!”

Perhaps because it was too perfect, it made the other person feel something more.

“If you say that, could you try going out with me?”

“Sadaoka-kun…”

“Please, Kaichō (President)! I promise you won’t regret it!”

The boy pleaded earnestly.

The girl addressed as the Kaichō seemed visibly troubled.

(What should I do?)

If this were a complete stranger, I could excuse myself and leave, but this time, I can’t do that.

So, after knocking, I opened the door to the Student Council room.

“Ah, I’ve been waiting for you.”

A girl with chestnut hair was facing a well-built boy called out to me.

“Sorry, Sadaoka-kun. Could you step outside for a moment?”

“Huh, President?”

“I need to talk to Kagisaka-kun.”

“I don’t mind he’s staying here. It’s fine if it’s not the two of us.”

When I replied casually, the black-haired student addressed as Sadaoka glared at me.

“Hey, you’re in the same year as me, right? Use honorifics for upperclassmen.”

Whether he was annoyed that I interrupted the confession or not, he closed the distance to show off his strong physique.

(It seems like he does some kind of martial arts.)

Even with the school uniform on, it’s apparent that he keeps his body in shape, and his center of gravity is different from an average person when he’s standing.

From the calluses on his hands, it seems like he’s into striking.

Probably karate.

“It’s alright, Sadaoka-kun.”

“?! B-But, Kaichō!”

“You see, he’s Azusa-chan’s recent new partner. Azusa-chan often helps with the student council’s work, right? So, I thought we’d be working together from now on. That’s why I called him here today.”

“…Ugh. Well, if Kaichō says so…”

As we passed each other, he mumbled, ‘Don’t get carried away.’

After leaving behind a parting remark, Sadaoka left the Student Council room.

Now, only one person remained.

A gentle smile.

If Tomori is lively and charming, this girl is mature and sophisticated.

Her wavy chestnut-colored long hair cascades beautifully. She’s slightly shorter than Chifuyu, but her figure is even more glamorous.

If we were to time travel back to medieval Europe, famous painters would have clamored to have her as a model.

Her elegance and motherly aura make it seem as if she’s a goddess depicted in Western paintings.

She smiles gently with a composed demeanor.

“Thank you.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Don’t play dumb. You came into the Student Council room to help me, right? Since you saw someone confessing to me.”

“That’s not the reason, Kaichō.”

I use her title to tease her a little.

In response, she gracefully loosens her cheeks, showing a hint of composure.

“Oh, come on, don’t tease me like that. Call me like you used to, back in the old days.”

“Is that okay?”

“Of course. You’re my precious little brother, after all.”

Her voice is a little different from the mature tone she used to turn down the confession.

This time, it’s more mischievous and friendly.

The Student Council President of Aisu Gakuin, Seira Hirowatari, from Class 3-A, playfully calls out to me,’ ‘Kay, Kimitaka?’

*****

『 Everyone’s friend.』 that’s how Azusa Tomori is called, but Seira Hirowatari also has a nickname.

It’s 『 Everyone’s Admiration.』

As the name suggests, Seira enjoys tremendous support from all the students, and she became the Student Council President in October of her first year in high school.

She also won by a landslide in last year’s Student Council election.

(She’s not like Tomori, excelling in both academics and sports.)

She’s weak in sports, but her academic performance is at the top level in national mock exams.

Moreover, she was born into a prestigious family that has produced prominent politicians for generations, and her father is a foreign minister.

Aisu is a super elite school that attracts the best students from all over the country, and within that, Seira is an unparalleled thoroughbred.

“Do you want some coffee? Don’t you like it?”

However, she smiles warmly in a way that doesn’t reveal any of that background.

“Two sugars?”

“You remember it well.”

“We’ve been friends since we were kids.”

‘You still have a sweet tooth,’ she said in a familiar tone as she brewed coffee.

The Kagisaka and Hirowatari families are very close.

『Make sure to get along with Hirowatari’s daughter.』

I remember my father telling me that when I was a kid.

The Kagisaka family has firmly established its position in the medical industry and holds significant connections in the political and business sectors.

Those connections are what link the Hirowatari family.
