Chapter 35: CHAPTER 35
Shouko had already left the classroom, today she didn't feel like going to the kendo club, so she just set out to leave the school.
It was 4 in the afternoon and when he went to change his shoes he saw in the distance a Najimi who was sitting waiting for him.
"You finally arrived, you took a long time, something bad happened with the teacher?".
No, it's nothing important...
-You had not with itsuki?.
"I wanted to come home with you, that's why I waited for you."
-......You can't walk right.
"Please, my legs hurt."
-What do you want me to do?.
"Take me home carrying me, please."
-You want to be on top of me so fast.—Shouko said this jokingly, although her monotone tone doesn't help much to notice it.
Similarly, Najimi blushed at these words.
"E-eh-ehh, I didn't mean to say that, don't get me wrong."
-.....
Ignoring his blush, he carried her on his back, he didn't have a big backpack, it was a small simple briefcase, but it had the necessary things.
Najimi just covered her face with my shoulder.
-Dwarf...
"What's wrong, Shouko?"
-.....Where do you live?.
At that moment Najimi's blush disappeared and she rolled her eyes.
"How cruel, you already forgot where I live."
-.......I never went to your house..
"Ahh.....it's true, hehehe"—Najimi just scratched her head in a silly way while laughing.
"Then let me guide you."
Minutes later.
The whole tour ended and we arrived at Najimi's house.
"Thank you very much, Shouko-chan."
I just nodded at his thanks and I got ready to see his house, what a nice house the Japanese have, eh...
Najimi felt a little embarrassed, since this was the first time shouko had seen her house.
"Well...I think you should go back to your house, I don't want you to be late because of me."
[Rather, I would say that, arriving late to my house, has become very common...].
-...Rest, dwarf.
"E-eh, w-well....yeah."
Najimi played with her feet forgetting her pain and with her head down, being shy in this scene.
-....
-...Najimi
"Huh?"—She raises her head at the call of her name without knowing that, she is received with a small kiss.
-...Improve yourself.....and train more.
Najimi just nodded with a red face.
Shouko already doing this, then turned and left the place while Najimi looked at him in the distance.
At that moment, the door opens and it's Najimi's mother.
•Daughter, you have arrived.
"A-ah-AAHH!"
"Oh mom!"
•Something happens?.
"E-eh, no nothing, I'm going to go in.
Najimi's mother had a small basket on her arm, apparently she was going out to buy things, when she realized that her daughter was outside doing nothing, this seemed strange to her, but hey, she would let it go.
Scene change, with Shouko.
He was walking to think about his things, he's supposed to be at the club now, so being a little late wouldn't affect that much.
Now apart from the topic of his new teacher, there was thinking about his game, it would take him more time to finish it, but he should already have the whole plan for when it's over.
He has researched very well and he is on the lookout for this topic, it is not something as simple as the medium of visual novels, in which you sign a contract when your novel is good and from there you are pending with the changes that your work has, some bad design in the drawing, talk to him if you get aanime, the notices of your earnings and a control management on your website.
Although all that was easier for me, when I already had all the work ready in my head and not being under the pressure of the fans and the editor himself, without wearing my life little by little.
But most of the work is done by the Kadokawa company.
But now with my video game, it is not so simple since now, apart from the profits, the expenses and more work will come.
The most feasible thing now is to create my company, but for that I would have to be a self-employed company and have to pay a fee of 25% per month.
And although I would like to be a self-employed individual, already having a company from the beginning, everything would go by contract and I would avoid trouble, in the event of a Dispute.
Obviously, a first-timer couldn't do these things because…ahem, they wouldn't have money, but my novels are increasing in sales over time, money is easy for me to get.
There is also the term of the agency, since I would need something to help me with the taxes and not be signing papers like crazy, reviewing the accounting, filling out forms and that is also another fee.
You would also have to contribute an initial capital of about 3 thousand dollars, those would be for the company, but it needs to be done, to be able to create it.
There is also the trademark registration thing, and the paperwork, obviously, I would give it to the agency.
I would also have to create a web page, a good trailer and when all this is ready.
I would have to buy a dedicated server, and they are not that cheap to say.....
And so with more and more expenses, even though my earnings from my novel are increasing, it would take a few more months to be able to solve all these things without problems.
All these thoughts go around Shouko's head, although those of her novel, her manga and now with her supposed new teacher.
He just scratched his head and wanted to calm his mind, now he was in the center of his city, he got there while he was walking and thinking about his things.
So he went to the mall to see what he could do.
Minutes later.
Shouko was now in the clothing section, she was curious if they have released new models, shouko herself, has in her mind, many styles of clothes that would be great and that she hasn't seen here.
But now getting into the clothing industry is not in his plans, he has enough with the anime and video game industry.
She was trying on a jacket over her uniform, to see how it would look.
Removing his thought, he receives a small shock with a person.
"O-oh, sorry for crashing."
Shouko turns around and discovers that that person was one of the quintuplets, Ichica.
[They took their time huh...].
Shouko thought this, because she already knew that
These sisters were here and he was always curious, when would he meet them all or maybe it would never be the case, which was almost impossible, because they studied at their own school.
Ichika, noticing the person she collided with and looking up at her, because she was tall.
And then looking at his face, he had many questions in his mind.
She is very into the field of fashion and beauty and knows how to use makeup very well to make you look super beautiful.
But seeing shouko's face, I notice that it was a pure and clean beauty, but that's where another question came from...
What was a man doing in the women's clothing section?
[He's a pervert!].
He looked closely and also noticed that he had the same uniform.
".....You are a pervert?".
-Excuse me?.
"What is a man doing here, besides, you are also from my same academy, it cannot be that you followed us here and all for your filthy thoughts."
Ichika's tone was a bit playful and mocking, he wanted to make Shouko uncomfortable and see her reaction which...didn't get anything, just hearing those things, he lost interest and kept looking at the clothes.
Unfortunately, it was in the women's section, because, I repeat, unfortunately, the fashion and clothing industry rules for women and designs abound more than for men.
Also because the market knows how to manipulate its customers well and since they know that minorities make compulsive purchases, they do it to take advantage of this.
And well.....also, because it was already the one for men and there was nothing good, he is still very strict with his clothes.
So if you see a good design in women's clothing, you simply ask for it to be made to measure for you or if there is a larger size and it fits you well.
Even though he is a man, he is not rooted in the term, "Oh, wear women's clothes, it's not masculine at all", if he likes it and the clothes fit him well, he will wear it, just like that.
Ichica, noticing that her words had no effect, looked at shouko again, she could see that she was looking at the urban clothing section, it was not so much to her liking, but she must admit that there are some women who look good on them.
Without wasting time, I ask.
"Are you looking for something to give your girlfriend?"
-.....No.
"So...what, you want to use it yourself, do you?"
A small laugh sounded at that question, but I didn't wait for the answer.
-That's how it is.....
"...".
"E-eh, wait.....you...are you, from that side?"
[God, how annoying you are, I see why you were the first to lose...].
Shouko after looking at the clothes, found nothing interesting and left.
He was followed by Ichica's gaze, who felt a bit strange.
It wasn't the answer or reaction I was expecting…it was very unexpected.
In the distance I hear a cry from Nino.
• Hey and where were you, I finished getting dressed and when I came out I couldn't find you.
"A-ah, sorry, I just dawdled with something."
•With what...
"Well... there was a boy, here and...".
• A guy in the women's clothing section, God, he was a pervert, how I hate perverts.
["Perverted....perverted...I don't know, really"].
"I don't believe it....".
•Why do you say that...don't tell me, do you like me?
"E-Eh, of course, not!".
• Was he handsome?
That question, she made see the image of Shouko up close face to face with Ichica's head and well... let's see.
He was very, very handsome and a very handsome face, that was to be admitted, but...he had an indifferent aura and an apathetic look.
"Well...yes it was."
•So if I call your attention.
"Well, let's end this conversation, we've come to try on clothes and not to talk about boys."
Ichica pushed Nino away and they went to the dressing room again.
Shouko, had already left the mall and was now on the main avenue.
It was 6 in the afternoon and it was starting to get dark, but since he was already on the street, he decided to go into a cafeteria and eat something.
Entering the cafeteria, the employee's voice sounded.
You are welcome.
The one who welcomed was none other than Saki Yoshida, the antisocial little girl from the shouko group, apparently she was working which is not very common in Japan, but if she is Japan from the anime, well yes.
Saki saw that the person who had entered was Shouko and began to tremble and feel ashamed.
On the other hand, shouko was a bit surprised by this, but she instantly let it go, so she didn't say anything and went to sit at an empty table.
He didn't care much if Saki works here, if he didn't tell anyone, well, he must have his reasons and he's nobody to get into someone's problems.
He sat down and saw the booklet that was on the table and saw the types of drinks and desserts, after reading it, he called Saki to tell her what he was asking for.
She, embarrassed, could only pay attention and obviously, do her job.
So while Shouko was waiting for her order, she started checking her cell phone.
He had some notifications from his blog, in private messages, although the only one that is not blocked is Shiyu, because he has the block of messages from fans, which have multiplied.
Now he has hundreds of thousands of followers, it's a huge number and the more people the better, so he can sneak some of them into playing his game and stuff like that.
The message he had from Shiyu, was.
→Thank you, for helping me clarify the problem I had, seriously, I am very grateful.
Shouko upon reading this, only responded with a welcome.
I also had personal messages from his number.
But a new one was from Marin.
→Hi, I'm Marin, your fan you met twice, hehehe, I didn't have a chance to write to you for days and I just got it, I'm here to say hello.
The message was from yesterday at 6 pm.
No account, your message.
→Yes, I remember you perfectly.
