SnickerI heard that during the athletics festival, I could be in the shade in a tent, so I joined.So I've gotten a really terrible nickname, like they're laughing at me.Boiled octopusHe's loud.But it doesn't feel bad.Eh? ...In the classroom.I found it.Since he's coming not to see me, but for his phone.Since you're "Sakiguchi", isn't "kuchisake" too easy?I was really pissed off.But instead sadly...I cover to just under my eyes with cloth.Shouldn't you bring it to the office?Let's go, let's go~Me too... I'm glad I was courageous.I know this, but...You have a fever.Just a little of the heat was stolen by you.Do you do that with everyone?Do you let them touch your hands?If that was just on a whim...The printout has a list of the committee members, so it's fine.WhisperEver since then it's been swirling around in my brain.What's that?HahahaUmmI panicked since it was the first time I lost my phone.Being able to hand it over to him is just a little...I thought so, you're hot.ContinuedHey, hey, do your job.Stop it.What's your class and name?He's "Ichimatsu-kun", who's also a committee member...So it hasn't really gone away.I picked this up after it was dropped.Sorry, butA cold would be better.Wa... Walked...Ever since elementary school, this sort of thing never went away, and even though they think it's a joke,I'll probably never be able to forget this nickname that was given to me for the rest of my life.I wanted him to think that I'm taking a break from class because I'm feeling bad.What's this guy doing, saying something unnecessary?AppleOk, if I get it, I'll let your homeroom teacher know.Year 1, Class 2, Ichimatsu...You're the one who recognized it was meRight away.For some reason, I deeply regretBecause of my complex,No! I'm also Ichimatsu!I wonder why.AhI'm sure of it.Why did you recognize my voice right away before?I look flustered and blush just from talking to someone.Didn't fly...But I'm glad the one who found it was someone I know~Lying to you like that.He's a 1st year, huh... Then I'll have no direct relationship...But my skin still feels hot.The crow was kind of embarrassed...See? She's doing it again. Look.SnickerSnickerBlushes right away.But I hated it about myselfNo matter how much he blushes,Ummm...Now that you mention it...EhIf we have another meeting, we will call you over the loudspeaker...HeyI hope you get over your cold soon.YeahA checkered pattern strap!I wonder...Aren't you going to go back to your classroom?"I'm not good with heights."Ok, the next person read.Walked on the ground.Well, let's adjourn.I... I'm a 2nd year...!Earlier, weren't they kind of badmouthing you? Were you being made fun of?A cold.I said, it's one with a strap attached to it.What do you call it...No, no.It might be... An acquaintance of mine...Your voice is muffled.What am I doing?Can I... See...ClickThat's right. It's something important, so he's coming to get it right away.AhThank you.It was a classmate...It not just me, but any "person he knows" would give him the same comfort.Are you ok?I-I'm ok...D-Do I? Though I don't think so.Umm, I'm really ok, so...Afterwards, he went back to his own classroom.MurmurSakiguchi's an apple!!Aren't you next?This... Is my class...What? Checkered?Eh? I can't hear you.Hey, you did as I said.WahU-Umm, it wasn't me who picked it up...I know you...Ah geez!Somehow, for me,Nice to meet you...Huh? She's kuchisake (slit-mouth), right?What's your name?Your voice echoes wellIt fell in the hallway....Maybe so.Why did you protect me back then?Huh? We're not going to introduce ourselves?Eh? Then why are you sitting in the 1st year section?It looks like a chess board.She's always wears a mask since elementary school.This is the person who dropped that cell phone.U-Umm...I guess I might be looking forward to it.Ah, I see.Take care of yourself.Sakiguchi-san, continue.Ok, next person.I guess there really isn't anything else.Introduce yourself. They said to start with the 1st years.Then next is the 2nd years.I... I'm a 2nd year, Sakiguchi.Well, let's end with that.I hadHe said that to me first.A bright person like you"A checkered pattern strap!"What? Slit-mouthEh, I thought she was allergic to pollen or something.When she gets nervous, she blushes.Huh? Is that all?For picking it up...She really is red.AhhhI really thought she had a slit mouth.What am I doing.Your face is really red?It's shameful.Thank you for your concern...My feverThat he would say such kind words.Ah...Eh?"I haven't gotten a cell phone."I wonder what he thinks of me.Like an octopus.And, along with the laughing, when I was made fun of, I wanted it to disappear.Slit-mouth Sakiguchi.I wishUmm... That cell phone...I can't hear what you're saying at all.Y, Yes.SnickerYou sat in the wrong place.The pattern of your strap is checkered, right? I got it already.
Ichimatsu, aside from being his name, almost means checkered.Do you want to go to the infirmary?So I...No matter what anyone thinks of me,T-The crow...Don't forget the printout.What?U-Umm, this is the 2nd year's seats!Maybe.Ah, hello?Huh?My handsSee you later.You shouldn't let it bother you.I don't need to be on my guard for it.I'm Ichimatsu, year 1 class 2.Mail, tomato, slit-mouth
Red is the color of the Japanese Postage Service.Does he think I'm pathetic... He probably does.It's locked, so I can't see anything.Aren't you in class right now? Where are you calling from?I don't want to be seen by you.But for some reason, I didn't want to be seen like this by you.HeyShe's rushing too much.Yes...No one would be able to tell. I was jealous of birds.So whenever you can, help out other committees and club activities...Introductions? Ah, I guess we can?Nice to meet...I don't need this.Do you recognize me? I'm Ichimatsu...Don't look."That's a strange story, considering you're a crow."You shouldn't let it bother you.Don't mess with it.Could that be Ichimatsu-kun's...Huh?Incoming CallWh-What should I do?Maybe it's from... The person who dropped it.I'm borrowing a friend's cell phone.But thank you for holding onto it for me.I didn't thinkWhat am I doing? I don't even know if it's Ichimatsu-kun's phone.When I think about it now, it wasn't to the point of bullying or badmouthing.Health committee members don't have much work aside from the athletics festival and extracurricular activities.I haven't gotten a cell phone.If you want this,HahahaUmm... I-I pic...Please wait there.With his cell phone.When the crow said that, the boy laughed.Like I thought, everyone could hear that...Eh? Slit-mouth?Were you being made fun off?Isn't it too easy?You really are skipping.Ok, stop chatting.It would be nice being a crow...Health Committee MeetingAh, I see.You shouldn't let it bother you.KyahahaIt's that kind of pattern.You shouldn't let it bother you.AhhIf it was someone I didn't know, I'd just have them leave it at the office.I just think, I don't care.Let's start with the 1st years.WhisperHuh?Is kind of dazzling.Ehh?Then take off your mask and talk.I'll give it to you.I recognized your voice... right away.Really?Because I'm "someone he knows" "a member of the same committee", he came here.Is your cold still really bad?I said I'm ok...But I'm scared of breaking your illusion.The meeting was clearly about to end just now!Ding DongEh, that's a pain.But it might just look similar...Sakiguchi-san?Maybe you don't. I'm a member of the same committee.Do you have a fever?Until now, I've been made fun of lots by the girls.Ah, I see...He doesn't know that I've worn a mask for a long time...Stop itAh...She's probably bright red like an octopus right now.T-Thank you...BzzzzSeriously~Don't look.WhisperAhThe PE storage room.Don't look.Are cold, aren't they? Everyone says so.It's true...Ah...Ah, we have to change classrooms next.Ding DongI'll come to get it right now.
