Chapter 155: Misunderstanding and Determination
"Sorry... I can't make it. I can't leave the shop." Rizu then answered.
Indeed, as expected.
"Is that so... Well, that's a shame. Wait for my return. We'll have another study session together if we get the chance."
"Alright, thank you, Minamiya-san. Same to you."
"Thanks again. Okay then, I will ask Furuhashi-san now."
"Goodbye."
Homura guessed it right, she couldn't go. Next up! This is the last one!
"Hello, Furuhashi-san, are you busy?"
"Minamiya-kun? Why are you calling?" Fumino said in surprise.
"I just called Ogata-san and invited her for a holiday trip, but she can't leave the shop. Would you like to come, Furuhashi-san?"
"Ehh?!" Fumino exclaimed, "Minamiya-kun, we've only known each other for a short time! T-To go on a date like this..."
*THUD!*
He banged his head on the coffee table! Did he say something misleading, or did she misunderstand something?
He carefully reviewed what he said just now...
Seems like he said something problematic... He didn't mention other people and just directly invited her out of nowhere! Most people would misunderstand, right?! Especially someone like Fumino, a genius in literature, and skilled at reading people's feelings.
"Sorry! I misspoke. Today, I invited almost all of my friends to go out together, and so far it seems that Ogata-san is the only one who can't make it."
At that moment... Fumino felt so embarrassed that she wanted to die!
Yes! We've only known each other for a short time, how could he suddenly invite you on a date! Ahh! Fumino! You really did overthink it! Baka!!!
"So, will you come?" Hearing him ask again, she temporarily set aside her embarrassment.
"I don't think I can come either. Coincidentally, Minamiya-kun, your teaching method is quite effective. I'm working hard to improve my grades and I don't want to be distracted by anything."
'NO! Actually, it's because I'm too embarrassed! I just can't face Minamiya-kun after that misunderstanding!' Fumino screamed in her mind!
But Homura had no idea about her thoughts. He also understood the importance of grades to Fumino and was completely unaware that it was just her excuse.
"I see... Indeed, grades are very important to you. It's necessary to seize the time to improve yourself. Alright! I understand. When I come back, let's find an opportunity to study together again, okay?"
"Minamiya-kun..." Fumino was deeply moved. She just casually came up with a suitable excuse, but she didn't expect him to think like this.
She felt even more guilty.
"Study hard! May you and Ogata-san achieve both of your dreams of getting into your ideal universities."
"Furuhashi-san, see you next time."
"Yeah... Goodbye." She replied while in a daze.
With her face still red, Fumino hung up the phone and patted her own face. "Yosh! Since I've already said it... and he's even looking forward to it! Let's focus on studying!"
Homura had no idea that this phone call unexpectedly ignited her determination to study harder.
At this moment, he was making a phone call to his father because Muse's nine members needed someone to pick them up.
"Dad, do me a favor. Arrange a car this afternoon to pick up nine people from Otonokizaka High School. After picking them up, take them to the hot spring villa. Oh right, send me the address as well. I'm not sure if Saori will go or not, but I'll prepare the address first."
Kosuke: "..."
He feels like there's a lot of information to take! And... there are more people going? And it sounds like there are over ten people? NO! Over ten girls! What the hell?!
"...You're quite impressive, Otonokizaka High School? What kind of school is this?"
"It's a school on the verge of closure. The nine people I want you to help me pick up are trying to save this school."
Kosuke raised an eyebrow. "Is this related to the video you just sent? What are you up to, kid? The person who keeps popping up in that video is you, right?! So gaudy!"
'What the heck? Gaudy?' His father was just teasing himself for no reason. Homura's forehead veins bulged. "Please say it enthusiastic!"
"Tsk! Fine! I'll arrange a car to pick them up. What should I call this group?"
"...Muse."
"Muse... Okay, I'll make the arrangements, and you'll depart at the same time." Kosuke swiftly made the arrangements. "And what about this Saori... the girl from the Makishima Family?"
"Yes, she doesn't know the place and hasn't decided if she wants to go, so please send me the address first."
"Thank goodness the villa I borrowed this time is big enough, otherwise it wouldn't be enough for you to mess around with that many people!" Kosuke said impatiently.
Homura quickly calculated, realizing there were more than twenty people!
He suddenly had this spontaneous idea to invite more people, but it ended up turning into a group of over twenty people. Why does it feel like they've become a tour group or something?
"...I didn't expect to invite so many people either, ahaha..." Homura felt a little awkward.
"Alright, I've sent you the location. Is there anything else?"
"No."
"Then have fun. Relax a bit, considering how busy you were lately."
"Got it." Homura chuckled. "Dad, I'm hanging up now. I still have some work to do on my blog."
"...Seems like you can't stay idle after all." With that said, Kosuke hung up.
"Hahh... I got scared for a moment. In just a short month, I've already met so many people huh?" Homura wondered to himself.
After sighing, it was time to check the effects of the video he had just posted. By the way, it seemed that it had been reposted by the girls.
But first, let's take a look at the comments from netizens. Are there any interesting ones?
"Huh? Minamiya-sensei quietly posted a video... Let's take a look."
"It looks like a concert? Which concert is this? Why haven't I received any news about it?"
"By the way, the girls on stage are both beautiful and young, and they're full of energy. Their singing is great too!"
"Haha! Did you all not discover something? That person who suddenly appeared is Minamiya-sensei, right?! His dance and attires got me for real!"
"Minamiya-sensei looked dumb, LMAO."
"You... truly arouse my sexual interest..."
Homura had a black line on his face. You're the dumb one! Your whole family is dumb! And what the hell is the last comment?! That should be a typo right?! Who is this person referring to? The comment above him? Or... himself?!
He suddenly broke into a cold sweat... It's a typo, right? Or maybe... this person referring to the girls on stage? It should be, right?!
He initially wanted to see the gender of this commenter, but he was afraid that he would regret it if he opened it, so he resisted the discomfort and didn't read that particular comment.
"Ahh... I should've skipped that one..." Homura sighed tiredly.
