<!--PG 15--><br />
I was awoken by the noisy alarm clock.<br />
<br />
I'm weak in the morning. If it was a usual day, having the alarm ring only once is far from enough to wake me up, but today is different than usual. I managed to wake up with a clear mind and feeling refreshed.<br />
<br />
Today is the day of my high school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
I wonder how long I had waited this day.<br />
<br />
I, Kashiwada Naoki, am determined to live a completely new life at my best.<br />
<br />
In other words, from today onwards, I shall become a 'hidden otaku'.<br />
<br />
I had vowed strongly in my heart that I shall never again have a passionate otaku talk in the class, never join topics related to Manga and Galge and Doujinshi.<br />
<br />
The middle school life where I was called Disgusting Otaku. When I got to know the truth, I was really shocked. I almost stopped trusting woman. There was even a moment where I was thinking whether or not to enter an all-boys high school. But, in the end, I didn't want to.<br />
<!--PG 16-->Even though I am an otaku, I will still be interested in 3D woman, and I wanted to fall in love.<br />
<br />
Therefore I will bury away my past, and decided to spend my high school life while hiding my otaku identity.<br />
<br />
To accomplish that, I purposely took the entrance exam of a high school that was taken by no one who knows me.<br />
<br />
Becoming someone who is conscious towards his outward appearance in order to not be exposed as otaku, then ultimately get a girlfriend ---- with these being my final objective, I make preparation for my high school entry.<br />
<br />
Wearing contact lenses instead of glasses, went to a trendy hairstylist to have my haircut instead of the usual 1000-yen-barber at spring break before the school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
The wallpaper in my cellphone changed from my favorite game character to a stylish-looking scenery, the phone straps I bought from anime shop that were used until now, were also removed from my cellphone.<br />
<br />
My resolve is not a joke.<br />
<br />
I wore my brand new uniform, then took a deep breath.<br />
<br />
From today onwards, I will try to start a Riajuu life.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 17--><br />
I arrived at a station which is somewhere near Fujimi High School, and got off from the train.<br />
<br />
Passing by my middle school in the local area, I had my first experience of going to school by train. Then I left the place after having my ticket examined.<br />
<br />
Right now, I held a little bit hope for the school life that I'm about to start today. I wonder what kind of girls my high school has.<br />
<br />
My Ideal type is, a kind girl that is cute and neat. I heard that nowadays high school girls often dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, but why girls dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, I really had no idea. If I am to get a girlfriend, straight black hair is definitely the best. The hairstyle that is best in expressing a Japanese female's charm, without any doubt I believe it is straight black hair<br />
<br />
After I left the station, I noticed that there was a female student wearing the school uniform of the high school I attended, walking in front of me. Unexpectedly that female student, had a beautiful straight black hair, just as what I had imagine now. What amazing timing. I began to stare at her sub-consciously.<br />
<br />
Her long hair that extended until her back, fluttered with the spring's wind. She not only has good posture, even the way she walks is beautiful. Though I only saw her back, I could tell everything about her was ideal to me. Aah.... you who has a beautiful back appearance, I wanted to see your face. I was waiting for a chance for her to turn her body around, but it seems like it isn't going to happen any time soon.<br />
<!--PG 18--><br />
Then, some noise of running steps came from behind me. A small girl with backpack ran pass me. I guess there is a primary school somewhere around the station. That small girl is probably 1st, or 2nd grader.<br />
<br />
When I noticed that she ran pass me, she already ran far enough to nearly passby the female student who was walking in front of me.<br />
<br />
"Man, she sure works hard", as I thought like that in admiration, she fell quite hard in a sudden when she was about to run pass that female student.<br />
<br />
Uwaa, that sure hurts. When I thought "will she cry?" and about to get worried, the female student in front of me ran towards the small girl nervously, squat down and held her up.<br />
<br />
Though I can't hear anything because the incident happened 5 meters away, I think the female student initiated a talk with the small girl.<br />
<br />
As I kept on walking, I got closer and closer to them. Because I was concerned about them I took a look, and I saw the female student brush off the sand on the small girl's cloth.<br />
<br />
"Are you alright?"<br />
<br />
I could hear her voice as she talked. Though I was in a position where I could only see her side face, I saw the female student talk to the small girl with a kind smile.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 19--><br />
[[image:Otaria v01 019.jpg|thumb]]<br />
<!--PG 20--><br />
"You didn't cry at all. That's great, that's great.."<br />
<br />
Then she pat the small girl's head. The small girl replied happily with an "Um!". Aaah.... how wonderful this is. Even her voice is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Perhaps realizing I was looking at her, she turned her face towards me for a moment.<br />
<br />
That is the first time, that I could see her face clearly.<br />
<br />
I was shocked.<br />
<br />
A fair skin that is very white, and a beautiful look.<br />
<br />
A beauty that would make one shocked and charmed with just a single glare.<br />
<br />
Very soon she changed her direction back to the small girl. And I walked pass them without stopping at all.<br />
<br />
My heartbeat is getting stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
An angel.<br />
<br />
I saw an angel.<br />
<br />
A kindness that straight away helped the small girl without a single sign of hesitation, a beautiful face that charms everything that looked at it. This girl who possessed both of these traits, is an angel herself.<br />
<br />
Such a high school female student, is it really alright for her to exist in this world?<br />
<!--PG 21--><br />
The fact that I'm going to the same school as that angel makes me feel very grateful. Then, I became greedier. I wanted to know her name. I wanted to get closer to her. If possible, I wanted to be in the same class as her, though I don't even know whether or not she is in the same grade as I am.<br />
<br />
As both my hope and anxiety were getting stronger, the entrance ceremony held in the gymnasium was ended.<br />
<br />
I went to my classroom according to the announcement, then found myself a seat. It is a window seat at the most left, 2nd row from the back.<br />
<br />
Soon after I got onto my seat, I tried to look out for the girl I met this morning.<br />
<br />
But for me whose seat is at the 2nd row from the back, I could only see most of the students' back. Since there are a few female students with straight black hair, I couldn't search for her with only the back appearance.<br />
<br />
To begin with, I don't even know if she is a new student or not, so for her to be in the same class as I am is something close to a miracle.<br />
<br />
As suggested by the homeroom teacher, each of us came out to give a self-introduction, and in the midst of this, it happened.<br />
<br />
A miracle happened.<br />
<!--PG 22--><br />
At the exact middle of the first row in front, a girl who sat at opposite of the teacher's desk stood up and went to the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
That face........ is the angel I saw this morning while going to school.<br />
<br />
I felt extremely happy and also until my hand was trembling.<br />
<br />
Fluttering her black hair, she walked gallantly towards the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
Though I could only take a glimpse of her look this morning, now that I look at her again, she really is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Fair skin and big clear eyes. Long eyelashes that could almost create shades. Straight hair that is glazing black. Beautiful and well proportioned standing pose. Everything seems like a paint.<br />
<br />
Not just me, probably all the guys in the class were staring at her.<br />
<br />
Her figure, atmosphere, were completely my ideal. At this time, without caring about the fact that we had just met, my heart was strongly captivated by her.<br />
<br />
meanwhile.<br />
<br />
"I'm Hasegawa Midori, nice to meet you."<br />
<br />
She finished her short speech in an unsociable tone, then returned back to her seat without any hesitation.<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher said we had our own freedom to talk about anything, everyone would still have at least mentioned the middle school they went to and the place they live. <!--PG 23-->Then from there some would further talk about their hobbies or the club they wish to join, as a way to appeal and give others a feeling that they wanted to blend into the class quickly.<br />
<br />
But for her, without even a sign of smiling, went back to her seat quickly, and ended her self-introduction in an instant. Compared with the kind girl this morning who smiled kindly towards a kid, she now gave off a cold aura, and was a completely different person.<br />
<br />
All classmates that watched this were dumbfounded, then fell into silence and forgot to applause.<br />
<br />
She is a beauty, but unfriendly and weird.<br />
<br />
On the first day of school, her(Hasegawa Midori) image was firmly engraved just like that for all classmates.<br />
<br />
But, my feeling was not affected by that.<br />
<br />
Moreover, I was getting more interested in her.<br />
<br />
She might be feeling shy, or was stage frighten, or maybe she was originally unfriendly.<br />
<br />
Nevertheless, the expression I saw this morning when I was traveling to school, I believe that was her true self.<br />
<br />
I wanted to talk with her.<br />
<br />
I wanted to see her smile once again.<br />
<!--PG 24--><br />
Able to like someone in the first day of school, maybe my high school life has a promising future.<br />
<br />
Ever since that day, Hasegawa Midori is the only one I look at.<br />
<br />
********<br />
<br />
1 week after enrollment.<br />
<br />
As I am being very cautious, so the fact that I am an otaku was not known by anyone yet.<br />
<br />
I managed to make only 1 friend. A guy named Kiritani who was seated behind me. With him being friendly and easy to talk to, I was able to talk to him very soon in break time. Obviously, unlike me who is an otaku, he is normal.<br />
<br />
That day, a discussion was conducted by the homeroom teacher to choose a class representative. But no one proposed a candidate, and we fell into a troubled situation.<br />
<br />
"If it is not decided then it will not end you know"<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher tried to threaten us, there still isn't anyone who would propose a candidate.<br />
<!--PG 25--><br />
The class is getting noisier. It's very likely that everyone is thinking stuff like "can't someone just take over that job". Of course, I am one of them.<br />
<br />
Then, a hand was raised.<br />
<br />
I was shocked to see the one who raised that hand.<br />
<br />
It was Hasegawa Midori's.<br />
<br />
She proposed candidacy for herself as the class committee.<br />
<br />
"Hasegawa-san, do you want to be the class representative?"<br />
<br />
"Yes."<br />
<br />
Naturally, without anyone opposing, it was concluded and ended quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The discussion was over, it is now break time.<br />
<br />
I had a few questions in my mind, so I turned around and muttered to Kiritani.<br />
<br />
"It's a mystery isn't it..... Hasegawa doesn't seems to be the type who likes to stand out, so why is she proposing herself as a candidate."<br />
<br />
"Kashiwada, it seems like you talk about Hasegawa a lot. So like, you like her?"<br />
<br />
"Hey, don't say that in a loud voice!"<br />
<!--PG 26--><br />
I checked my surroundings in panic. After confirming that no one noticed it, I felt relieved.<br />
<br />
Until now I had never talked to Hasegawa Midori even once. No, I made a mistake. To be precise, I had not talked to any girls in this class even once. My plan of getting a girlfriend in high school was already in trouble.<br />
<br />
"Give up, even though she is a beauty, isn't she giving off a feeling of 'I don't want to talk to any useless human'? So she definitely won't care about you. Besides, she talks to no one and only reads books, even in break times."<br />
<br />
It is true, it is just as Kiritani said, Hasegawa Midori gives off an indescribable atmosphere and makes it hard to approach her. Always wearing a cold face, I had never seen her talking happily with other classmates.<br />
<br />
In break times, she will either stay in her seat reading a book, or do her class representative work quietly. I could only see this as she's trying distance herself from the rest.<br />
<br />
But I will never take this as her true personality. After all, I had witnessed those: her kindness, and her smile.<br />
<br />
She is now cleaning the blackboard earnestly without making any noise. I noticed something while observing her: most of the class representative's work are actually miscellaneous chores.<br />
<!--PG 27--><br />
"Hasegawa--"<br />
<br />
At that moment, the homeroom teacher called her. She stopped cleaning the blackboard and left the classroom.<br />
<br />
"...Alright!"<br />
<br />
Saying that, I made a decision and stood up.<br />
<br />
"Ah? What's wrong, Kashiwada?"<br />
<br />
Even though I could hear Kiritani talking to me, I continued to walk until I reached the blackboard. In place of Hasegawa Midori, who was called by the homeroom teacher, I cleaned the part of the blackboard she left unerased earlier.<br />
<br />
After I finished cleaning and went back to my seat, Hasegawa Midori had come back. Looking at the blackboard that was now clean, she became curious. As if she thought someone had helped her, she looked around restlessly.<br />
<br />
It feels like..... she also caught a glimpse of me.<br />
<br />
"I wonder if Hasegawa noticed it was me..."<br />
<br />
"No no no, there is no way she would, isn't it!?"<br />
<br />
"How much of a delusion are you having?" While Kiritani said in disgust, somewhere deep in my heart I believed that Hasegawa Midori had noticed that it was me. <!--PG 28-->Though I'm not even sure if there is any proof for this.<br />
<br />
After that, I continued to assist Hasegawa Midori in her class representative chores wholeheartedly.<br />
<br />
It will be the best if I could say "let me help you" right in front of her, but unfortunately I do not have such Riajuu skill. More like it is embarrassing.<br />
<br />
Ever since then, I have always helped Hasegawa in her class representative work. The things I mainly did were: clean the blackboard and write the timetable for that day. These 2 tasks are the only tasks I could do in secret when Hasegawa is not around.<br />
<br />
Assisting her secretly while she's not looking, yet believing someday she will find out about me. In such a manner, I continued to help her everyday.<br />
<br />
*********<br />
<br />
2 Weeks after enrollment.<br />
<br />
All groups in the class are already fixed in place, and I was able to have a little more conversation with people other than Kiritani. Even so, I'm still not able to talk to girls, even with guys I mostly talked with Kiritani only.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 29--><br />
<br />
Hasegawa was still alone for most of the time. I had thought of talking with her, but obviously I don't have the guts to. Helping her in her class representative chores is already the best I could do.<br />
<br />
With her releasing a cold aura that makes it hard to initiate a conversation, I got one step closer into fully understanding the difficulty of approaching her.<br />
<br />
Hasegawa Midori is a 'superhuman'. Since we didn't have a test yet, I'm not sure about her results, but based on her responses every time she was called by the teacher in the class, I believe her results will be quite good for all subjects. Besides that, I also managed to witness how athletic she is. Though boys and girls are separated in PE, whenever there is health education in the class, I can see the girls who are having their PE on the ground through the window beside my seat. So whenever I'm in health class, I will be dazed by the other class over there. Every time the PE class began, the first thing the girls do is always running around the grounds for 5 turns, and Hasegawa will definitely be the first or the second person running in front.<br />
<br />
She is intelligent and beautiful. She is also literary skilled and athletic. Though such a thing is normal in galge, I found it hard to believe that a person like her actually exists in the real world.<br />
<br />
But such imprudence perfectness, is what makes her harder to be approached, thus causing her to be isolated.<br />
<br />
<!--pg 30--><br />
At the same day, due to the teacher's circumstances, the 4th lesson became a self-study session. I turned around and tried to talk to Kiritani, but before I could say anything, he goes "I only slept for 2 hours yesterday" and announced proudly that he didn't have enough sleep, then fell on the desk prostrately and began to sleep like a log.<br />
<br />
Having nothing much to do, I grabbed the novel I bought yesterday from my bag, and opened the page that had a bookmark.<br />
<br />
Soon after I opened the page, I closed the novel in panic as I realized the bookmark in it was otaku-like. This is bad, I made a mistake. This is a light novel that I had labeled "will only read when I'm on the way to school in the train". Inside my bag were 2 novels and because both of them had a similar book cover and were the same in size, so it's easy for me to mistake them. I could distinguish them without reading the content by using 2 different bookmarks: one is a trading card of the game I like; one is a plain one that I got from the book shop when I bought a mystery-genre novel.<br />
<br />
I quickly checked around me. Luckily, it seemed that no one saw the trading card. To me who's trying hard to be a 'hidden otaku', it is such a foolish act to read the wrong light novel in the class. I reflected on my own action and determined to be more careful next time. This time for sure, I picked and opened the mystery-genre novel correctly.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 31--><br />
How unfortunate, as I started to read, a group of girls at my right were talking loudly, causing me unable to concentrate on reading.<br />
<br />
"More like, isn't Momo something? Last time Miho saw her walking together with a guy who seems like a salary man in Shibuya!"<br />
<br />
"You serious?! Isn't that teen prostitution?? Is it true that she is a play girl? Though she denies it strongly."<br />
<br />
How should I put this, in short, it was a conversation from a living creature called 'girl'. One that I will never get involved with, attitude-wise.<br />
<br />
Because of that conversation, where I was forced to hear even though I didn't want to, all the words I managed to read, didn't get to form as a story in my mind.<br />
<br />
"Don'cha think the part where she dated more than 5 guys simultaneously at middle school is true? A girl from class C who was in the same middle school as her said so."<br />
<br />
"Eeh... wasn't that too absurd? The person in topic did deny that as well."<br />
<br />
"But Momo never talked about her love life right? Isn't that suspicious?"<br />
<br />
Dated 5 guys simultaneously in middle school..... If that is true, how much of a slut can she be. To make it worse, selling herself to a salary man? Nowadays, high school girls sure are scary.<br />
<br />
"Hey guys, what were you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Momo!?"<br />
<br />
<!--PG 32--><br />
<br />
From there, a new voice could be heard, which belongs to the person who was in the topic earlier.... Momo, or so I think that's what her name is. On such timing, she joined in the conversation. Quite an unexpected development. More like, you really shouldn't be talking at someone's back when she is actually from the same class as us. Gals sure are daring.<br />
<br />
"Aah, Momo, you really don't have any boyfriend?"<br />
<br />
"Huh? I already told you, I don't. Why do you keep asking everyday?"<br />
<br />
"Are you serious? Stop lying. The truth is you have one, right??"<br />
<br />
The gals who were having fun talking about rumors that sound like mocking at the gal named 'Momo' earlier, seems to have problem in asking her questions. So the question threw at the gal named 'Momo' became a misdirected question from rumors, and were asked in a joking manner.<!--larethian, need help. I'm sure I mistranslated somewhere--><br />
<br />
Then, I became very curious. Curious of the look of the gal named 'Momo', who dated 5 guys simultaneously and was part of the teen prostitution.<br />
<br />
When I was in middle school, the gals who were fooling around openly, usually look good on first glance but are not cute in actual. With such mindset that looks down on gal, I turned my face to the right casually.<br />
<br />
Once I took a good look, I was shocked.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 33--><br />
Within three gals over there, there is only one who is an outrageous bishoujo. There are two who're sitting and one who's standing, and the one who's standing is so unnaturally cute. From the way they talked, that bishoujo is the one with the name is 'Momo'.<br />
<br />
She has curly hair dyed in light brown, her skirt is short, and she doesn't wear the school-specified necktie and puts on a red checked ribbon as she pleased...... without a doubt she is a gal but, she looks like someone who had appear at least once as a top model of some magazine, or someone who fits to be the center of the AKB48, in any case her cuteness is not a joke.<br />
<br />
It's a mystery to me as of how I couldn't notice her after being her classmate for two weeks.<br />
<br />
Now that I think about it, I realize that all along I had only looked at Hasegawa's and not any other girls.<br />
<br />
Thinking I could be noticed by her if I stared too much, I turned my glance back nervously. For a while I kind of lingered back at the cuteness of the superb bishoujo, but very soon I recall a certain fact. That's right, that gal is a bitch. No matter how cute she is, I still hate bitches. Why should I be nervous when I hate bitches the most.<br />
<br />
Besides, though I just took a quick glance, she seems to be around 150cm and looked quite small, and if I had to choose which type of girl she belongs to that would be loli-type. Also, she is a gal. For me, innocent-type girls with black straight hair is my type, and I like tall and reliable beauties that gives off a matured feel. Basically, Hasegawa Midori fits all of those criteria, and is a polar opposite with the gals earlier.<br />

I was awoken by the noisy alarm clock.<br />
<br />
I'm weak in the morning. If it was a usual day, having the alarm ring only once is far from enough to wake me up, but today is different than usual. I managed to wake up with a clear mind and feeling refreshed.<br />
<br />
Today is the day of my high school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
I wonder how long I had waited this day.<br />
<br />
I, Kashiwada Naoki, am determined to live a completely new life at my best.<br />
<br />
In other words, from today onwards, I shall become a 'hidden otaku'.<br />
<br />
I had vowed strongly in my heart that I shall never again have a passionate otaku talk in the class, never join topics related to Manga and Galge and Doujinshi.<br />
<br />
The middle school life where I was called Disgusting Otaku. When I got to know the truth, I was really shocked. I almost stopped trusting woman. There was even a moment where I was thinking whether or not to enter an all-boys high school. But, in the end, I didn't want to.<br />
<!--PG 16-->Even though I am an otaku, I will still be interested in 3D woman, and I wanted to fall in love.<br />

The wallpaper in my cellphone changed from my favorite game character to a stylish-looking scenery, the phone straps I bought from anime shop that were used until now, were also removed from my cellphone.<br />
<br />
My resolve is not a joke.<br />
<br />
I wore my brand new uniform, then took a deep breath.<br />
<br />
From today onwards, I will try to start a Riajuu life.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 17--><br />
I arrived at a station which is somewhere near Fujimi High School, and got off from the train.<br />
<br />
Passing by my middle school in the local area, I had my first experience of going to school by train. Then I left the place after having my ticket examined.<br />
<br />
Right now, I held a little bit hope for the school life that I'm about to start today. I wonder what kind of girls my high school has.<br />
<br />
My Ideal type is, a kind girl that is cute and neat. I heard that nowadays high school girls often dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, but why girls dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, I really had no idea. If I am to get a girlfriend, straight black hair is definitely the best. The hairstyle that is best in expressing a Japanese female's charm, without any doubt I believe it is straight black hair<br />
<br />
After I left the station, I noticed that there was a female student wearing the school uniform of the high school I attended, walking in front of me. Unexpectedly that female student, had a beautiful straight black hair, just as what I had imagine now. What amazing timing. I began to stare at her sub-consciously.<br />
<br />
Her long hair that extended until her back, fluttered with the spring's wind. She not only has good posture, even the way she walks is beautiful. Though I only saw her back, I could tell everything about her was ideal to me. Aah.... you who has a beautiful back appearance, I wanted to see your face. I was waiting for a chance for her to turn her body around, but it seems like it isn't going to happen any time soon.<br />
<!--PG 18--><br />
Then, some noise of running steps came from behind me. A small girl with backpack ran pass me. I guess there is a primary school somewhere around the station. That small girl is probably 1st, or 2nd grader.<br />
<br />
When I noticed that she ran pass me, she already ran far enough to nearly passby the female student who was walking in front of me.<br />
<br />
"Man, she sure works hard", as I thought like that in admiration, she fell quite hard in a sudden when she was about to run pass that female student.<br />
<br />
Uwaa, that sure hurts. When I thought "will she cry?" and about to get worried, the female student in front of me ran towards the small girl nervously, squat down and held her up.<br />
<br />
Though I can't hear anything because the incident happened 5 meters away, I think the female student initiated a talk with the small girl.<br />
<br />
As I kept on walking, I got closer and closer to them. Because I was concerned about them I took a look, and I saw the female student brush off the sand on the small girl's cloth.<br />
<br />
"Are you alright?"<br />
<br />
I could hear her voice as she talked. Though I was in a position where I could only see her side face, I saw the female student talk to the small girl with a kind smile.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 19--><br />
[[image:Otaria v01 019.jpg|thumb]]<br />
<!--PG 20--><br />
"You didn't cry at all. That's great, that's great.."<br />
<br />
Then she pat the small girl's head. The small girl replied happily with an "Um!". Aaah.... how wonderful this is. Even her voice is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Perhaps realizing I was looking at her, she turned her face towards me for a moment.<br />
<br />
That is the first time, that I could see her face clearly.<br />
<br />
I was shocked.<br />
<br />
A fair skin that is very white, and a beautiful look.<br />
<br />
A beauty that would make one shocked and charmed with just a single glare.<br />
<br />
Very soon she changed her direction back to the small girl. And I walked pass them without stopping at all.<br />
<br />
My heartbeat is getting stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
An angel.<br />
<br />
I saw an angel.<br />
<br />
A kindness that straight away helped the small girl without a single sign of hesitation, a beautiful face that charms everything that looked at it. This girl who possessed both of these traits, is an angel herself.<br />
<br />
Such a high school female student, is it really alright for her to exist in this world?<br />
<!--PG 21--><br />
The fact that I'm going to the same school as that angel makes me feel very grateful. Then, I became greedier. I wanted to know her name. I wanted to get closer to her. If possible, I wanted to be in the same class as her, though I don't even know whether or not she is in the same grade as I am.<br />
<br />
As both my hope and anxiety were getting stronger, the entrance ceremony held in the gymnasium was ended.<br />
<br />
I went to my classroom according to the announcement, then found myself a seat. It is a window seat at the most left, 2nd row from the back.<br />
<br />
Soon after I got onto my seat, I tried to look out for the girl I met this morning.<br />
<br />
But for me whose seat is at the 2nd row from the back, I could only see most of the students' back. Since there are a few female students with straight black hair, I couldn't search for her with only the back appearance.<br />
<br />
To begin with, I don't even know if she is a new student or not, so for her to be in the same class as I am is something close to a miracle.<br />
<br />
As suggested by the homeroom teacher, each of us came out to give a self-introduction, and in the midst of this, it happened.<br />
<br />
A miracle happened.<br />
<!--PG 22--><br />
At the exact middle of the first row in front, a girl who sat at opposite of the teacher's desk stood up and went to the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
That face........ is the angel I saw this morning while going to school.<br />
<br />
I felt extremely happy and also until my hand was trembling.<br />
<br />
Fluttering her black hair, she walked gallantly towards the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
Though I could only take a glimpse of her look this morning, now that I look at her again, she really is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Fair skin and big clear eyes. Long eyelashes that could almost create shades. Straight hair that is glazing black. Beautiful and well proportioned standing pose. Everything seems like a paint.<br />
<br />
Not just me, probably all the guys in the class were staring at her.<br />
<br />
Her figure, atmosphere, were completely my ideal. At this time, without caring about the fact that we had just met, my heart was strongly captivated by her.<br />
<br />
meanwhile.<br />
<br />
"I'm Hasegawa Midori, nice to meet you."<br />
<br />
She finished her short speech in an unsociable tone, then returned back to her seat without any hesitation.<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher said we had our own freedom to talk about anything, everyone would still have at least mentioned the middle school they went to and the place they live. <!--PG 23-->Then from there some would further talk about their hobbies or the club they wish to join, as a way to appeal and give others a feeling that they wanted to blend into the class quickly.<br />
<br />
But for her, without even a sign of smiling, went back to her seat quickly, and ended her self-introduction in an instant. Compared with the kind girl this morning who smiled kindly towards a kid, she now gave off a cold aura, and was a completely different person.<br />
<br />
All classmates that watched this were dumbfounded, then fell into silence and forgot to applause.<br />
<br />
She is a beauty, but unfriendly and weird.<br />
<br />
On the first day of school, her(Hasegawa Midori) image was firmly engraved just like that for all classmates.<br />
<br />
But, my feeling was not affected by that.<br />
<br />
Moreover, I was getting more interested in her.<br />
<br />
She might be feeling shy, or was stage frighten, or maybe she was originally unfriendly.<br />
<br />
Nevertheless, the expression I saw this morning when I was traveling to school, I believe that was her true self.<br />
<br />
I wanted to talk with her.<br />
<br />
I wanted to see her smile once again.<br />
<!--PG 24--><br />
Able to like someone in the first day of school, maybe my high school life has a promising future.<br />
<br />
Ever since that day, Hasegawa Midori is the only one I look at.<br />
<br />
********<br />
<br />
1 week after enrollment.<br />
<br />
As I am being very cautious, so the fact that I am an otaku was not known by anyone yet.<br />
<br />
I managed to make only 1 friend. A guy named Kiritani who was seated behind me. With him being friendly and easy to talk to, I was able to talk to him very soon in break time. Obviously, unlike me who is an otaku, he is normal.<br />
<br />
That day, a discussion was conducted by the homeroom teacher to choose a class representative. But no one proposed a candidate, and we fell into a troubled situation.<br />
<br />
"If it is not decided then it will not end you know"<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher tried to threaten us, there still isn't anyone who would propose a candidate.<br />
<!--PG 25--><br />
The class is getting noisier. It's very likely that everyone is thinking stuff like "can't someone just take over that job". Of course, I am one of them.<br />
<br />
Then, a hand was raised.<br />
<br />
I was shocked to see the one who raised that hand.<br />
<br />
It was Hasegawa Midori's.<br />
<br />
She proposed candidacy for herself as the class committee.<br />
<br />
"Hasegawa-san, do you want to be the class representative?"<br />
<br />
"Yes."<br />
<br />
Naturally, without anyone opposing, it was concluded and ended quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The discussion was over, it is now break time.<br />
<br />
I had a few questions in my mind, so I turned around and muttered to Kiritani.<br />
<br />
"It's a mystery isn't it..... Hasegawa doesn't seems to be the type who likes to stand out, so why is she proposing herself as a candidate."<br />
<br />
"Kashiwada, it seems like you talk about Hasegawa a lot. So like, you like her?"<br />
<br />
"Hey, don't say that in a loud voice!"<br />
<!--PG 26--><br />
I checked my surroundings in panic. After confirming that no one noticed it, I felt relieved.<br />
<br />
Until now I had never talked to Hasegawa Midori even once. No, I made a mistake. To be precise, I had not talked to any girls in this class even once. My plan of getting a girlfriend in high school was already in trouble.<br />
<br />
"Give up, even though she is a beauty, isn't she giving off a feeling of 'I don't want to talk to any useless human'? So she definitely won't care about you. Besides, she talks to no one and only reads books, even in break times."<br />
<br />
It is true, it is just as Kiritani said, Hasegawa Midori gives off an indescribable atmosphere and makes it hard to approach her. Always wearing a cold face, I had never seen her talking happily with other classmates.<br />
<br />
In break times, she will either stay in her seat reading a book, or do her class representative work quietly. I could only see this as she's trying distance herself from the rest.<br />
<br />
But I will never take this as her true personality. After all, I had witnessed those: her kindness, and her smile.<br />
<br />
She is now cleaning the blackboard earnestly without making any noise. I noticed something while observing her: most of the class representative's work are actually miscellaneous chores.<br />
<!--PG 27--><br />
"Hasegawa--"<br />
<br />
At that moment, the homeroom teacher called her. She stopped cleaning the blackboard and left the classroom.<br />
<br />
"...Alright!"<br />
<br />
Saying that, I made a decision and stood up.<br />
<br />
"Ah? What's wrong, Kashiwada?"<br />
<br />
Even though I could hear Kiritani talking to me, I continued to walk until I reached the blackboard. In place of Hasegawa Midori, who was called by the homeroom teacher, I cleaned the part of the blackboard she left unerased earlier.<br />
<br />
After I finished cleaning and went back to my seat, Hasegawa Midori had come back. Looking at the blackboard that was now clean, she became curious. As if she thought someone had helped her, she looked around restlessly.<br />
<br />
It feels like..... she also caught a glimpse of me.<br />
<br />
"I wonder if Hasegawa noticed it was me..."<br />
<br />
"No no no, there is no way she would, isn't it!?"<br />
<br />
"How much of a delusion are you having?" While Kiritani said in disgust, somewhere deep in my heart I believed that Hasegawa Midori had noticed that it was me. <!--PG 28-->Though I'm not even sure if there is any proof for this.<br />
<br />
After that, I continued to assist Hasegawa Midori in her class representative chores wholeheartedly.<br />
<br />
It will be the best if I could say "let me help you" right in front of her, but unfortunately I do not have such Riajuu skill. More like it is embarrassing.<br />
<br />
Ever since then, I have always helped Hasegawa in her class representative work. The things I mainly did were: clean the blackboard and write the timetable for that day. These 2 tasks are the only tasks I could do in secret when Hasegawa is not around.<br />
<br />
Assisting her secretly while she's not looking, yet believing someday she will find out about me. In such a manner, I continued to help her everyday.<br />
<br />
*********<br />
<br />
2 Weeks after enrollment.<br />
<br />
All groups in the class are already fixed in place, and I was able to have a little more conversation with people other than Kiritani. Even so, I'm still not able to talk to girls, even with guys I mostly talked with Kiritani only.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 29--><br />
<br />
Hasegawa was still alone for most of the time. I had thought of talking with her, but obviously I don't have the guts to. Helping her in her class representative chores is already the best I could do.<br />
<br />
With her releasing a cold aura that makes it hard to initiate a conversation, I got one step closer into fully understanding the difficulty of approaching her.<br />
<br />
Hasegawa Midori is a 'superhuman'. Since we didn't have a test yet, I'm not sure about her results, but based on her responses every time she was called by the teacher in the class, I believe her results will be quite good for all subjects. Besides that, I also managed to witness how athletic she is. Though boys and girls are separated in PE, whenever there is health education in the class, I can see the girls who are having their PE on the ground through the window beside my seat. So whenever I'm in health class, I will be dazed by the other class over there. Every time the PE class began, the first thing the girls do is always running around the grounds for 5 turns, and Hasegawa will definitely be the first or the second person running in front.<br />
<br />
She is intelligent and beautiful. She is also literary skilled and athletic. Though such a thing is normal in galge, I found it hard to believe that a person like her actually exists in the real world.<br />
<br />
But such imprudence perfectness, is what makes her harder to be approached, thus causing her to be isolated.<br />
<br />
<!--pg 30--><br />
At the same day, due to the teacher's circumstances, the 4th lesson became a self-study session. I turned around and tried to talk to Kiritani, but before I could say anything, he goes "I only slept for 2 hours yesterday" and announced proudly that he didn't have enough sleep, then fell on the desk prostrately and began to sleep like a log.<br />
<br />
Having nothing much to do, I grabbed the novel I bought yesterday from my bag, and opened the page that had a bookmark.<br />
<br />
Soon after I opened the page, I closed the novel in panic as I realized the bookmark in it was otaku-like. This is bad, I made a mistake. This is a light novel that I had labeled "will only read when I'm on the way to school in the train". Inside my bag were 2 novels and because both of them had a similar book cover and were the same in size, so it's easy for me to mistake them. I could distinguish them without reading the content by using 2 different bookmarks: one is a trading card of the game I like; one is a plain one that I got from the book shop when I bought a mystery-genre novel.<br />
<br />
I quickly checked around me. Luckily, it seemed that no one saw the trading card. To me who's trying hard to be a 'hidden otaku', it is such a foolish act to read the wrong light novel in the class. I reflected on my own action and determined to be more careful next time. This time for sure, I picked and opened the mystery-genre novel correctly.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 31--><br />
How unfortunate, as I started to read, a group of girls at my right were talking loudly, causing me unable to concentrate on reading.<br />
<br />
"More like, isn't Momo something? Last time Miho saw her walking together with a guy who seems like a salary man in Shibuya!"<br />
<br />
"You serious?! Isn't that teen prostitution?? Is it true that she is a play girl? Though she denies it strongly."<br />
<br />
How should I put this, in short, it was a conversation from a living creature called 'girl'. One that I will never get involved with, attitude-wise.<br />
<br />
Because of that conversation, where I was forced to hear even though I didn't want to, all the words I managed to read, didn't get to form as a story in my mind.<br />
<br />
"Don'cha think the part where she dated more than 5 guys simultaneously at middle school is true? A girl from class C who was in the same middle school as her said so."<br />
<br />
"Eeh... wasn't that too absurd? The person in topic did deny that as well."<br />
<br />
"But Momo never talked about her love life right? Isn't that suspicious?"<br />
<br />
Dated 5 guys simultaneously in middle school..... If that is true, how much of a slut can she be. To make it worse, selling herself to a salary man? Nowadays, high school girls sure are scary.<br />
<br />
"Hey guys, what were you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Momo!?"<br />
<br />

<!--PG 15--><br />
I was awakened by the noisy alarm clock.<br />
<br />
I'm weak in the morning. If it was a usual day, having the alarm ring only once is far from enough to wake me up, but today is different than usual. I managed to wake up with a clear mind and feeling refreshed.<br />
<br />
Today is the day of my high school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
I wonder how long I had waited this day.<br />
<br />
I, Kashiwada Naoki, am determined to live a completely new life at my best.<br />
<br />
In other words, from today onwards, I shall become a 'hidden otaku'.<br />
<br />
I had vowed strongly in my heart that I shall never again have a passionate otaku talk in the class, never join topics related to Manga and Galge and Doujinshi.<br />
<br />
The middle school life where I was called Disgusting Otaku. When I got to know the truth, I was really shocked. I almost stopped trusting woman. There was even a moment where I was thinking whether or not to enter an all-boys high school. But, in the end, I didn't want to.<br />
<!--PG 16-->Even though I am an otaku, I will still be interested in 3D woman, and I wanted to fall in love.<br />
<br />
Therefore I will bury away my past, and decided to spend my high school life while hiding my otaku identity.<br />
<br />
To accomplish that, I purposely took the entrance exam of a high school that was taken by no one who knows me.<br />
<br />
Becoming someone who is conscious towards his outward appearance in order to not be exposed as otaku, then ultimately get a girlfriend ---- with these being my final objective, I make preparation for my high school entry.<br />
<br />
Wearing contact lenses instead of glasses, went to a trendy hairstylist to have my haircut instead of the usual 1000-yen-barber at spring break before the school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
The wallpaper in my cellphone changed from my favorite game character to a stylish-looking scenery, the phone straps I bought from anime shop that were used until now, were also removed from my cellphone.<br />
<br />
My resolve is not a joke.<br />
<br />
I wore my brand new uniform, then took a deep breath.<br />
<br />
From today onwards, I will try to start a Riajuu life.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 17--><br />
I arrived at a station which is somewhere near Fujimi High School, and got off from the train.<br />
<br />
Passing by my middle school in the local area, I had my first experience of going to school by train. Then I left the place after having my ticket examined.<br />
<br />
Right now, I held a little bit hope for the school life that I'm about to start today. I wonder what kind of girls my high school has.<br />
<br />
My Ideal type is, a kind girl that is cute and neat. I heard that nowadays high school girls often dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, but why girls dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, I really had no idea. If I am to get a girlfriend, straight black hair is definitely the best. The hairstyle that is best in expressing a Japanese female's charm, without any doubt I believe it is straight black hair<br />
<br />
After I left the station, I noticed that there was a female student wearing the school uniform of the high school I attended, walking in front of me.

As I am being very cautious, so the fact that I am an otaku was not known by anyone yet.<br />
<br />
I managed to make only 1 friend. A guy named Kiritani who was seated behind me. With him being friendly and easy to talk to, I was able to talk to him very soon in break time. Obviously, unlike me who is an otaku, he is normal.<br />
<br />
That day, a discussion was conducted by the homeroom teacher to choose a class representative. But no one proposed a candidate, and we fell into a troubled situation.<br />
<br />
"If it is not decided then it will not end you know"<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher tried to threaten us, there still isn't anyone who would propose a candidate.<br />
<!--PG 25--><br />
The class is getting noisier. It's very likely that everyone is thinking stuff like "can't someone just take over that job". Of course, I am one of them.<br />
<br />
Then, a hand was raised.<br />
<br />
I was shocked to see the one who raised that hand.<br />
<br />
It was Hasegawa Midori's.<br />
<br />
She proposed candidacy for herself as the class committee.<br />
<br />
"Hasegawa-san, do you want to be the class representative?"<br />
<br />
"Yes."<br />
<br />
Naturally, without anyone opposing, it was concluded and ended quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The discussion was over, it is now break time.<br />
<br />
I had a few questions in my mind, so I turned around and muttered to Kiritani.<br />
<br />
"It's a mystery isn't it..... Hasegawa doesn't seems to be the type who likes to stand out, so why is she proposing herself as a candidate."<br />
<br />
"Kashiwada, it seems like you talk about Hasegawa a lot. So like, you like her?"<br />
<br />
"Hey, don't say that in a loud voice!"<br />
<!--PG 26--><br />
I checked my surroundings in panic. After confirming that no one noticed it, I felt relieved.<br />
<br />
Until now I had never talked to Hasegawa Midori even once. No, I made a mistake. To be precise, I had not talked to any girls in this class even once. My plan of getting a girlfriend in high school was already in trouble.<br />
<br />
"Give up, even though she is a beauty, isn't she giving off a feeling of 'I don't want to talk to any useless human'? So she definitely won't care about you. Besides, she talks to no one and only reads books, even in break times."<br />
<br />
It is true, it is just as Kiritani said, Hasegawa Midori gives off an indescribable atmosphere and makes it hard to approach her. Always wearing a cold face, I had never seen her talking happily with other classmates.<br />
<br />
In break times, she will either stay in her seat reading a book, or do her class representative work quietly. I could only see this as she's trying distance herself from the rest.<br />
<br />
But I will never take this as her true personality. After all, I had witnessed those: her kindness, and her smile.<br />
<br />
She is now cleaning the blackboard earnestly without making any noise. I noticed something while observing her: most of the class representative's work are actually miscellaneous chores.<br />
<!--PG 27--><br />
"Hasegawa--"<br />
<br />
At that moment, the homeroom teacher called her. She stopped cleaning the blackboard and left the classroom.<br />
<br />
"...Alright!"<br />
<br />
Saying that, I made a decision and stood up.<br />
<br />
"Ah? What's wrong, Kashiwada?"<br />
<br />
Even though I could hear Kiritani talking to me, I continued to walk until I reached the blackboard. In place of Hasegawa Midori, who was called by the homeroom teacher, I cleaned the part of the blackboard she left unerased earlier.<br />
<br />
After I finished cleaning and went back to my seat, Hasegawa Midori had come back. Looking at the blackboard that was now clean, she became curious. As if she thought someone had helped her, she looked around restlessly.<br />
<br />
It feels like..... she also caught a glimpse of me.<br />
<br />
"I wonder if Hasegawa noticed it was me..."<br />
<br />
"No no no, there is no way she would, isn't it!?"<br />
<br />
"How much of a delusion are you having?" While Kiritani said in disgust, somewhere deep in my heart I believed that Hasegawa Midori had noticed that it was me. <!--PG 28-->Though I'm not even sure if there is any proof for this.<br />
<br />
After that, I continued to assist Hasegawa Midori in her class representative chores wholeheartedly.<br />
<br />
It will be the best if I could say "let me help you" right in front of her, but unfortunately I do not have such Riajuu skill. More like it is embarrassing.<br />
<br />
Ever since then, I have always helped Hasegawa in her class representative work. The things I mainly did were: clean the blackboard and write the timetable for that day. These 2 tasks are the only tasks I could do in secret when Hasegawa is not around.<br />
<br />
Assisting her secretly while she's not looking, yet believing someday she will find out about me. In such a manner, I continued to help her everyday.<br />
<br />
*********<br />
<br />
2 Weeks after enrollment.<br />
<br />
All groups in the class are already fixed in place, and I was able to have a little more conversation with people other than Kiritani. Even so, I'm still not able to talk to girls, even with guys I mostly talked with Kiritani only.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 29--><br />
<br />
Hasegawa was still alone for most of the time. I had thought of talking with her, but obviously I don't have the guts to. Helping her in her class representative chores is already the best I could do.<br />
<br />
With her releasing a cold aura that makes it hard to initiate a conversation, I got one step closer into fully understanding the difficulty of approaching her.<br />
<br />
Hasegawa Midori is a 'superhuman'. Since we didn't have a test yet, I'm not sure about her results, but based on her responses every time she was called by the teacher in the class, I believe her results will be quite good for all subjects. Besides that, I also managed to witness how athletic she is. Though boys and girls are separated in PE, whenever there is health education in the class, I can see the girls who are having their PE on the ground through the window beside my seat. So whenever I'm in health class, I will be dazed by the other class over there. Every time the PE class began, the first thing the girls do is always running around the grounds for 5 turns, and Hasegawa will definitely be the first or the second person running in front.<br />
<br />
She is intelligent and beautiful. She is also literary skilled and athletic. Though such a thing is normal in galge, I found it hard to believe that a person like her actually exists in the real world.<br />
<br />
But such imprudence perfectness, is what makes her harder to be approached, thus causing her to be isolated.<br />
<br />
<!--pg 30--><br />
At the same day, due to the teacher's circumstances, the 4th lesson became a self-study session. I turned around and tried to talk to Kiritani, but before I could say anything, he goes "I only slept for 2 hours yesterday" and announced proudly that he didn't have enough sleep, then fell on the desk prostrately and began to sleep like a log.<br />
<br />
Having nothing much to do, I grabbed the novel I bought yesterday from my bag, and opened the page that had a bookmark.<br />
<br />
Soon after I opened the page, I closed the novel in panic as I realized the bookmark in it was otaku-like. This is bad, I made a mistake. This is a light novel that I had labeled "will only read when I'm on the way to school in the train". Inside my bag were 2 novels and because both of them had a similar book cover and were the same in size, so it's easy for me to mistake them. I could distinguish them without reading the content by using 2 different bookmarks: one is a trading card of the game I like; one is a plain one that I got from the book shop when I bought a mystery-genre novel.<br />
<br />
I quickly checked around me. Luckily, it seemed that no one saw the trading card. To me who's trying hard to be a 'hidden otaku', it is such a foolish act to read the wrong light novel in the class. I reflected on my own action and determined to be more careful next time. This time for sure, I picked and opened the mystery-genre novel correctly.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 31--><br />
How unfortunate, as I started to read, a group of girls at my right were talking loudly, causing me unable to concentrate on reading.<br />
<br />
"More like, isn't Momo something? Last time Miho saw her walking together with a guy who seems like a salary man in Shibuya!"<br />
<br />
"You serious?! Isn't that teen prostitution?? Is it true that she is a play girl? Though she denies it strongly."<br />
<br />
How should I put this, in short, it was a conversation from a living creature called 'girl'. One that I will never get involved with, attitude-wise.<br />
<br />
Because of that conversation, where I was forced to hear even though I didn't want to, all the words I managed to read, didn't get to form as a story in my mind.<br />
<br />
"Don'cha think the part where she dated more than 5 guys simultaneously at middle school is true? A girl from class C who was in the same middle school as her said so."<br />
<br />
"Eeh... wasn't that too absurd? The person in topic did deny that as well."<br />
<br />
"But Momo never talked about her love life right? Isn't that suspicious?"<br />
<br />
Dated 5 guys simultaneously in middle school..... If that is true, how much of a slut can she be. To make it worse, selling herself to a salary man? Nowadays, high school girls sure are scary.<br />
<br />
"Hey guys, what were you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Momo!?"<br />
<br />

<!--PG 15--><br />
I was awakened by the noisy alarm clock.<br />
<br />
I'm weak in the morning. If it was a usual day, having the alarm ring only once is far from enough to wake me up, but today is different than usual. I managed to wake up with a clear mind and feeling refreshed.<br />
<br />
Today is the day of my high school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
I wonder how long I had waited this day.<br />
<br />
I, Kashiwada Naoki, am determined to live a completely new life at my best.<br />
<br />
In other words, from today onwards, I shall become a 'hidden otaku'.<br />
<br />
I had vowed strongly in my heart that I shall never again have a passionate otaku talk in the class, never join topics related to Manga and Galge and Doujinshi.<br />
<br />
The middle school life where I was called Disgusting Otaku. When I got to know the truth, I was really shocked. I almost stopped trusting woman. There was even a moment where I was thinking whether or not to enter an all-boys high school. But, in the end, I didn't want to.<br />
<!--PG 16-->Even though I am an otaku, I will still be interested in 3D woman, and I wanted to fall in love.<br />
<br />
Therefore I will bury away my past, and decided to spend my high school life while hiding my otaku identity.<br />
<br />
To accomplish that, I purposely took the entrance exam of a high school that was taken by no one who knows me.<br />
<br />
Becoming someone who is conscious towards his outward appearance in order to not be exposed as otaku, then ultimately get a girlfriend ---- with these being my final objective, I make preparation for my high school entry.<br />
<br />
Wearing contact lenses instead of glasses, went to a trendy hairstylist to have my haircut instead of the usual 1000-yen-barber at spring break before the school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
The wallpaper in my cellphone changed from my favorite game character to a stylish-looking scenery, the phone straps I bought from anime shop that were used until now, were also removed from my cellphone.<br />
<br />
My resolve is not a joke.<br />
<br />
I wore my brand new uniform, then took a deep breath.<br />
<br />
From today onwards, I will try to start a Riajuu life.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 17--><br />
I arrived at a station which is somewhere near Fujimi High School, and got off from the train.<br />
<br />
Passing by my middle school in the local area, I had my first experience of going to school by train. Then I left the place after having my ticket examined.<br />
<br />
Right now, I held a little bit hope for the school life that I'm about to start today. I wonder what kind of girls my high school has.<br />
<br />
My Ideal type is, a kind girl that is cute and neat. I heard that nowadays high school girls often dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, but why girls dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, I really had no idea. If I am to get a girlfriend, straight black hair is definitely the best. The hairstyle that is best in expressing a Japanese female's charm, without any doubt I believe it is straight black hair<br />
<br />
After I left the station, I noticed that there was a female student wearing the school uniform of the high school I attended, walking in front of me. Unexpectedly that female student, had a beautiful straight black hair, just as what I had imagine now. What amazing timing. I began to stare at her sub-consciously.<br />
<br />
Her long hair that extended until her back, fluttered with the spring's wind. She not only has good posture, even the way she walks is beautiful. Though I only saw her back, I could tell everything about her was ideal to me. Aah.... you who has a beautiful back appearance, I wanted to see your face. I was waiting for a chance for her to turn her body around, but it seems like it isn't going to happen any time soon.<br />
<!--PG 18--><br />
Then, some noise of running steps came from behind me. A small girl with backpack ran pass me. I guess there is a primary school somewhere around the station. That small girl is probably 1st, or 2nd grader.<br />
<br />
When I notice that she ran pass me, she already ran far enough to nearly passby the female student who was walking in front of me.<br />
<br />
"Man, she sure works hard", as I thought like that in admiration, she fell quite hard in a sudden when she was about to run passed that female student.<br />
<br />
Uwaa, that sure hurts. When I thought "will she cries?" and about to get worried, the female student in front of me ran towards that small girl nervously, squat down and held her up.<br />
<br />
Though I can't hear anything because the incident happened 5 meters away, I think the female student initiate a talk with the small girl.<br />
<br />
As I keep on walking, I get closer and closer to them. Because I was concerned about them I took a look, and I saw the female student brushed off the sand on the small girl's cloth.<br />
<br />
"Are you alright?"<br />
<br />
I could hear her voice as she talked. Though I was in a position where I could only see her side face, I saw the female student talk to the small girl with a kind smile.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 19--><br />
[[image:Otaria v01 019.jpg|thumb]]<br />
<!--PG 20--><br />
"You didn't cry at all. That's great, that's great.."<br />
<br />
Then she pat the small girl's head. The small girl replied happily with an "Um!". Aaah.... how wonderful this is. Even her voice is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Perhaps realizing I was looking at her, she turned her face towards me for a moment.<br />
<br />
That is the first time, that I could see her face clearly.<br />
<br />
I was shocked.<br />
<br />
A fair skin that is very white, and a beautiful look.<br />
<br />
A beauty that will make one shocked and charmed with just a single glare.<br />
<br />
Very soon she changed her direction back to the small girl. And I walk passed them without stopping at all.<br />
<br />
My heartbeat is getting stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
An angel.<br />
<br />
I saw an angel.<br />
<br />
A kindness that straight away helped the small girl without a single sign of hesitation, a beautiful face that charms everything that looked at it. This girl who possessed both of these traits, is an angel herself.<br />
<br />
Such high school female student, is it really alright for her to exist in this world?<br />
<!--PG 21--><br />
The fact that I am going to the same school as that angel makes me feel very grateful. Then, I became greedier. I wanted to know her name. I wanted to get closer to her. If possible, I wanted to be in the same class as her, though I don't even know whether or not she is in the same grade as I do.<br />
<br />
As both my hope and anxiety were getting stronger, the entrance ceremony held in gymnasium was ended.<br />
<br />
I went to my classroom according to the announcement, then find myself a seat. It is a window seat at the most left, 2nd row from the back.<br />
<br />
Soon after I got onto my seat, I tried to look out for the girl I met this morning.<br />
<br />
But for me whose seat is at the 2nd row from the back, I could only see most of the students' back. Since there are a few female student with straight black hair, so I can't search for her with only back appearance.<br />
<br />
To begin with, I don't even know if she is a new student or not, so for her to be in the same class as I am is something close to miracle.<br />
<br />
As suggested by homeroom teacher, each of us came out to give a self-introduction, and in the midst of this, it happened.<br />
<br />
A miracle happened.<br />
<!--PG 22--><br />
At the exact middle of the first row in front, a girl who sat at opposite of the teacher's desk stood up and went to the front of teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
That face........ is the angel I saw this morning while going to school.<br />
<br />
I felt extremely happy and also until my hand was trembling.<br />
<br />
Fluttering her black hair, she walk gallantly towards the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
Though I could only took a glimpse of her look this morning, now that I look at her again, she really is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Fair skin and big clear eyes. Long eyelashes that could almost create shades. Straight hair that is glazing black. Beautiful and well proportioned standing pose. Everything seems like a paint.<br />
<br />
Not just me, probably all guys in the class were staring at her.<br />
<br />
Her figure, atmosphere, were completely my ideal. At this time, without caring about the fact that we had just met, my heart was strongly captivated by her.<br />
<br />
meanwhile.<br />
<br />
"I'm Hasegawa Midori, nice to meet you."<br />
<br />
She finished her short speech in an unsociable tone, then returned back to her seat without any hesitation.<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher said we had our own freedom to talk about anything, everyone would still at least mentioned the middle school they went to and the place they live. <!--PG 23-->Then from there some would further talk about their hobbies or the club they wish to join, as a way to appeal and give others a feeling that they wanted to blend into the class quickly.<br />
<br />
But for her, without even a sign of smiling, went back to her seat quickly, and ended her self-introduction in an instant. Compared with the kind girl this morning who smiled kindly towards a kid, she now gave off a cold aura, and was a completely different person.<br />
<br />
All classmates that watched this were dumbfounded, then fell into silence and forgot to applause.<br />
<br />
She is a beauty, but unfriendly and weird.<br />
<br />
On the first day of school, her(Hasegawa Midori) image was firmly engraved just like that for all classmates.<br />
<br />
But, my feeling was not affected by that.<br />
<br />
Moreover, I was getting more interested in her.<br />
<br />
She might be feeling shy, or was stage frighten, or maybe she was originally unfriendly.<br />
<br />
Nevertheless, the expression I saw this morning when I was traveling to school, I believe that was her true self.<br />
<br />
I wanted to talk with her.<br />
<br />
I wanted to see her smile once again.<br />
<!--PG 24--><br />
Able to like someone in the first day of school, maybe my high school life has a promising future.<br />
<br />
Ever since that day, Hasegawa Midori is the only one I look at.<br />
<br />
********<br />
<br />
1 week after enrollment.<br />
<br />
As I am being very cautious, so the fact that I am an otaku was not known by anyone yet.<br />

Inside my bag has 2 novels and because both of them had the similar book cover and same in size, so it's easy for me to mistake them. I could distinguish them without reading the content by using 2 different bookmarks: one is a trading card of the game I like; one is a plain one that I got from the book shop when I bought a mystery-genre novel.<br />
<br />
I quickly checked around me. Luckily, it seemed that no one saw the trading card. To me who's trying hard to be a 'hidden otaku', it is such a foolish act to read the wrong light novel in the class. I reflected on my own action and determined to be more careful next time. This time for sure, I picked and opened the mystery-genre novel correctly.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 31--><br />
How unfortunate, as I started to read, a group of girls at my right were talking loudly, causing me unable to concentrate on reading.<br />
<br />
"More like, isn't Momo something? Last time Miho saw her walking together with a guy who seems like a salary man in Shibuya!"<br />
<br />
"You serious?! Isn't that teen prostitution?? Is it true that she is a play girl? Though she denies it strongly."<br />
<br />
How should I put this, in short, it was a conversation from a living creature called 'girl'. One that I will never get involved with, attitude-wise.<br />
<br />
Because of that conversation, where I was forced to hear even though I didn't want to, all the words I managed to read, didn't get to form as a story in my mind.<br />
<br />
"Don'cha think the part where she dated more than 5 guys simultaneously at middle school is true? A girl from class C who was in the same middle school as her said so."<br />
<br />
"Eeh... wasn't that too absurd? The person in topic did deny that as well."<br />
<br />
"But Momo never talked about her love life right? Isn't that suspicious?"<br />
<br />
Dated 5 guys simultaneously in middle school..... If that is true, how much of a slut can she be. To make it worse, selling herself to a salary man? Nowadays, high school girls sure are scary.<br />
<br />
"Hey guys, what were you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Momo!?"<br />

Seitokai no Ichizon (生徒会の一存) is volume one of the light novel series Hekiyō Gakuen Seitokai Gijiroku (碧陽学園生徒会議事録) written by Sekina Aoi, illustrated by Kira Inugami and published by Fujimi Fantasia Bunko since January 19, 2008. <br />
<br />
==Story Synopsis==<br />
<br />
The student council members of a certain high school are chosen by an extremely unique method: They are chosen based on their popularity with the other students of the school. This unique balloting system has resulted in a student council full of pretty girls, with the third-year Sakurano Kurimu as the student council president. However, one member of the student council did not get in based on popular vote, but by taking advantage of a loophole which specifies that the student who tops the school in the year-end examinations may choose to join the student council. That student is Sugisaki Ken, a guy obsessed with eroge whose goal is to make the student council into his own personal harem!<br />

<!--PG 15--><br />
I was awakened by the noisy alarm clock.<br />
<br />
I'm weak in the morning. If it was a usual day, having the alarm ring only once is far from enough to wake me up, but today is different than usual. I managed to wake up with a clear mind and feeling refreshed.<br />
<br />
Today is the day of my high school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
I wonder how long I had waited this day.<br />
<br />
I, Kashiwada Naoki, am determined to live a completely new life at my best.<br />
<br />
In other words, from today onwards, I shall become a 'hidden otaku'.<br />
<br />
I had vowed strongly in my heart that I shall never again have a passionate otaku talk in the class, never join topics related to Manga and Galge and Doujinshi.<br />
<br />
The middle school life where I was called Disgusting Otaku. When I got to know the truth, I was really shocked. I almost stopped trusting woman. There was even a moment where I was thinking whether or not to enter an all-boys high school. But, in the end, I didn't want to.<br />
<!--PG 16-->Even though I am an otaku, I will still be interested in 3D woman, and I wanted to fall in love.<br />
<br />
Therefore I will bury away my past, and decided to spend my high school life while hiding my otaku identity.<br />
<br />
To accomplish that, I purposely took the entrance exam of a high school that was taken by no one who knows me.<br />
<br />
Becoming someone who is conscious towards his outward appearance in order to not be exposed as otaku, then ultimately get a girlfriend ---- with these being my final objective, I make preparation for my high school entry.<br />
<br />
Wearing contact lenses instead of glasses, went to a trendy hairstylist to have my haircut instead of the usual 1000-yen-barber at spring break before the school entrance ceremony.<br />
<br />
The wallpaper in my cellphone changed from my favorite game character to a stylish-looking scenery, the phone straps I bought from anime shop that were used until now, were also removed from my cellphone.<br />
<br />
My resolve is not a joke.<br />
<br />
I wore my brand new uniform, then took a deep breath.<br />
<br />
From today onwards, I will try to start a Riajuu life.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 17--><br />
I arrived at a station which is somewhere near Fujimi High School, and got off from the train.<br />
<br />
Passing by my middle school in the local area, I had my first experience of going to school by train. Then I left the place after having my ticket examined.<br />
<br />
Right now, I held a little bit hope for the school life that I'm about to start today. I wonder what kind of girls my high school has.<br />
<br />
My Ideal type is, a kind girl that is cute and neat. I heard that nowadays high school girls often dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, but why girls dyed their hair brown or apply permanent wave, I really had no idea. If I am to get a girlfriend, straight black hair is definitely the best. The hairstyle that is best in expressing a Japanese female's charm, without any doubt I believe it is straight black hair<br />
<br />
After I left the station, I noticed that there was a female student wearing the school uniform of the high school I attended, walking in front of me. Unexpectedly that female student, had a beautiful straight black hair, just as what I had imagine now. What amazing timing. I began to stare at her sub-consciously.<br />
<br />
Her long hair that extended until her back, fluttered with the spring's wind. She not only has good posture, even the way she walks is beautiful. Though I only saw her back, I could tell everything about her was ideal to me. Aah.... you who has a beautiful back appearance, I wanted to see your face. I was waiting for a chance for her to turn her body around, but it seems like it isn't going to happen any time soon.<br />
<!--PG 18--><br />
Then, some noise of running steps came from behind me. A small girl with backpack ran pass me. I guess there is a primary school somewhere around the station. That small girl is probably 1st, or 2nd grader.<br />
<br />
When I notice that she ran pass me, she already ran far enough to nearly passby the female student who was walking in front of me.<br />
<br />
"Man, she sure works hard", as I thought like that in admiration, she fell quite hard in a sudden when she was about to run passed that female student.<br />
<br />
Uwaa, that sure hurts. When I thought "will she cries?" and about to get worried, the female student in front of me ran towards that small girl nervously, squat down and held her up.<br />
<br />
Though I can't hear anything because the incident happened 5 meters away, I think the female student initiate a talk with the small girl.<br />
<br />
As I keep on walking, I get closer and closer to them. Because I was concerned about them I took a look, and I saw the female student brushed off the sand on the small girl's cloth.<br />
<br />
"Are you alright?"<br />
<br />
I could hear her voice as she talked. Though I was in a position where I could only see her side face, I saw the female student talk to the small girl with a kind smile.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 19--><br />
[[image:Otaria v01 019.jpg|thumb]]<br />
<!--PG 20--><br />
"You didn't cry at all. That's great, that's great.."<br />
<br />
Then she pat the small girl's head. The small girl replied happily with an "Um!". Aaah.... how wonderful this is. Even her voice is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Perhaps realizing I was looking at her, she turned her face towards me for a moment.<br />
<br />
That is the first time, that I could see her face clearly.<br />
<br />
I was shocked.<br />
<br />
A fair skin that is very white, and a beautiful look.<br />
<br />
A beauty that will make one shocked and charmed with just a single glare.<br />
<br />
Very soon she changed her direction back to the small girl. And I walk passed them without stopping at all.<br />
<br />
My heartbeat is getting stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
An angel.<br />
<br />
I saw an angel.<br />
<br />
A kindness that straight away helped the small girl without a single sign of hesitation, a beautiful face that charms everything that looked at it. This girl who possessed both of these traits, is an angel herself.<br />
<br />
Such high school female student, is it really alright for her to exist in this world?<br />
<!--PG 21--><br />
The fact that I am going to the same school as that angel makes me feel very grateful. Then, I became greedier. I wanted to know her name. I wanted to get closer to her. If possible, I wanted to be in the same class as her, though I don't even know whether or not she is in the same grade as I do.<br />
<br />
As both my hope and anxiety were getting stronger, the entrance ceremony held in gymnasium was ended.<br />
<br />
I went to my classroom according to the announcement, then find myself a seat. It is a window seat at the most left, 2nd row from the back.<br />
<br />
Soon after I got onto my seat, I tried to look out for the girl I met this morning.<br />
<br />
But for me whose seat is at the 2nd row from the back, I could only see most of the students' back. Since there are a few female student with straight black hair, so I can't search for her with only back appearance.<br />
<br />
To begin with, I don't even know if she is a new student or not, so for her to be in the same class as I am is something close to miracle.<br />
<br />
As suggested by homeroom teacher, each of us came out to give a self-introduction, and in the midst of this, it happened.<br />
<br />
A miracle happened.<br />
<!--PG 22--><br />
At the exact middle of the first row in front, a girl who sat at opposite of the teacher's desk stood up and went to the front of teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
That face........ is the angel I saw this morning while going to school.<br />
<br />
I felt extremely happy and also until my hand was trembling.<br />
<br />
Fluttering her black hair, she walk gallantly towards the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
Though I could only took a glimpse of her look this morning, now that I look at her again, she really is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Fair skin and big clear eyes. Long eyelashes that could almost create shades. Straight hair that is glazing black. Beautiful and well proportioned standing pose. Everything seems like a paint.<br />
<br />
Not just me, probably all guys in the class were staring at her.<br />
<br />
Her figure, atmosphere, were completely my ideal. At this time, without caring about the fact that we had just met, my heart was strongly captivated by her.<br />
<br />
meanwhile.<br />
<br />
"I'm Hasegawa Midori, nice to meet you."<br />
<br />
She finished her short speech in an unsociable tone, then returned back to her seat without any hesitation.<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher said we had our own freedom to talk about anything, everyone would still at least mentioned the middle school they went to and the place they live. <!--PG 23-->Then from there some would further talk about their hobbies or the club they wish to join, as a way to appeal and give others a feeling that they wanted to blend into the class quickly.<br />
<br />
But for her, without even a sign of smiling, went back to her seat quickly, and ended her self-introduction in an instant. Compared with the kind girl this morning who smiled kindly towards a kid, she now gave off a cold aura, and was completely a different person.<br />
<br />
All classmates that watched this were dumbfounded, then fell into silence and forgot to applause.<br />
<br />
She is a beauty, but unfriendly and weird.<br />
<br />
On the first day of school, her(Hasegawa Midori) image was firmly engraved just like that for all classmates.<br />
<br />
But, my feeling was not affected by that.<br />
<br />
Moreover, I was getting more interested in her.<br />
<br />
She might be feeling shy, or was stage frighten, or maybe she was originally unfriendly.<br />
<br />
Nevertheless, the expression I saw this morning when I was traveling to school, I believe that was her true self.<br />
<br />
I wanted to talk with her.<br />
<br />
I wanted to see her smile once again.<br />
<!--PG 24--><br />
Able to like someone in the first day of school, maybe my high school life has a promising future.<br />
<br />
Ever since that day, Hasegawa Midori is the only one I look at.<br />
<br />
********<br />
<br />
1 week after enrollment.<br />
<br />
As I am being very cautious, so the fact that I am an otaku was not known by anyone yet.<br />
<br />
I managed to make only 1 friend. A guy named Kiritani who was seated behind me. With him being friendly and easy to talk to, I was able to talk to him very soon in break time. Obviously, unlike me who is an otaku, he is normal.<br />
<br />
That day, a discussion was conducted by homeroom teacher to choose a class representative. But no one proposed a candidate, and we fell into a troubled situation.<br />
<br />
"If it is not decided then it will not end you know"<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher tried to threaten us, there still isn't anyone who would propose a candidate.<br />
<!--PG 25--><br />
The class is getting noisier. It is very likely that everyone is thinking stuffs like "can't someone just take over that job". Of course, I am one of them.<br />
<br />
Then, a hand was raised.<br />
<br />
I was shocked to see the one who raised that hand.<br />
<br />
It was Hasegawa Midori's.<br />
<br />
She proposed candidacy for herself as the class committee.<br />
<br />
"Hasegawa-san, do you want to be the class representative?"<br />
<br />
"Yes."<br />
<br />
Naturally, without anyone opposing, it was concluded and ended quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The discussion was over, it is now break time.<br />
<br />
I had a few questions in my mind, so I turned around and muttered to Kiritani.<br />
<br />
"It's a mystery isn't it..... Hasegawa doesn't seems to be the type who likes to stand out, so why is she proposing herself as a candidate."<br />
<br />
"Kashiwada, it seems like you talk about Hasegawa a lot. So like, you like her?"<br />
<br />
"Hey, don't say that in a loud voice!"<br />
<!--PG 26--><br />
I check my surroundings in panic. After confirming that no one noticed it, I felt relief.<br />
<br />
Until now I had never talked to Hasegawa Midori even once. No, I made a mistake. To be precise, I had not talked to any girls in this class even once. My plan of getting a girlfriend in high school was already in trouble.<br />
<br />
"Give up, even though she is a beauty, isn't she's giving off a feeling of 'I don't want to talk to any useless human'? So she definitely won't care about you. Besides, she talks to no one and only reads books, even in break times."<br />
<br />
It is true, it is just as Kiritani said, Hasegawa Midori gives off an indescribable atmosphere and makes it hard to approach her. Always wearing a cold face, I had never seen her talking happily with other classmates.<br />
<br />
In break times, she will either stay in her seat reading a book, or do her class representative work quietly. I could only see this as she's trying distance herself from the rest.<br />
<br />
But I will never take this as her true personality. After all, I had witnessed those: her kindness, and her smile.<br />
<br />
She is now cleaning the blackboard earnestly without making any noise. I noticed something while observing her: most of the class representative's work are actually miscellaneous chores.<br />
<!--PG 27--><br />
"Hasegawa--"<br />
<br />
At that moment, the homeroom teacher called her. She stopped cleaning the blackboard and left the classroom.<br />
<br />
"...Alright!"<br />
<br />
Saying that, I made a decision and stood up.<br />
<br />
"Ah? What's wrong, Kashiwada?"<br />
<br />
Even though I could hear Kiritani talking to me, I continue to walk until I reached the blackboard. In place of Hasegawa Midori, who was called by the homeroom teacher, I cleaned the part of the blackboard she left unerased earlier.<br />
<br />
After I finished cleaning and went back to my seat, Hasegawa Midori had come back. Looking at the blackboard that was now clean, she became curious. As if she thought someone had helped her, she looked around restlessly.<br />
<br />
It feels like..... she also caught a glimpse of me.<br />
<br />
"I wonder if Hasegawa noticed it was me..."<br />
<br />
"No no no, there is no way she would, isn't it!?"<br />
<br />
"How much of a delusion are you having?" While Kiritani said in disgust, somewhere deep in my heart I believed that Hasegawa Midori had noticed that it was me. <!--PG 28-->Though I'm not even sure if there is any proof for this.<br />
<br />
After that, I continued to assist Hasegawa Midori in her class representative chores wholeheartedly.<br />
<br />
It will be the best if I could say "let me help you" right in front of her, but unfortunately I do not have such Riajuu skill. More like it is embarrassing.<br />
<br />
Ever since then, I had always helped Hasegawa in her class representative work. The things I mainly did were: clean the blackboard and write the timetable for that day. These 2 tasks are the only tasks I could do in secret when Hasegawa is not around.<br />
<br />
Assisting her secretly while she is not looking, yet believing someday she will find out about me. In such manner, I continued to help her everyday.<br />
<br />
*********<br />
<br />
2 Weeks after enrollment.<br />
<br />
All groups in the class are already fixed in place, and I was able to have a little more conversation with people other than Kiritani. Even so, I'm still not able to talk to girls, even with guys I talked mostly with Kiritani only.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 29--><br />
<br />
Hasegawa was still alone for most of the time. I had thought of talking with her, but obviously I do not have the guts to. Helping her in her class representative chores is already the best I could do.<br />
<br />
With her releasing a cold aura that makes it hard to initiate a conversation, I got one step closer into fully understanding the difficulty of approaching her.<br />
<br />
Hasegawa Midori is a 'superhuman'. Since we didn't have a test yet, I'm not sure about her results, but based on her responses every time she was called by the teacher in the class, I believe her results will be quite good for all subjects. Besides that, I also managed to witness how athletic she is. Though boys and girls are separated in PE, whenever there is health education in the class, I can see the girls who are having their PE on the ground through the window beside my seat. So whenever I'm in health class, I will be dazed by the other class over there. Every time the PE class began, the first thing the girls do is always running around the grounds for 5 turns, and Hasegawa will definitely be the first or the second person running in front.<br />
<br />
She is intelligent and beautiful. She is also literary skilled and athletic. Though such a thing is normal in galge, I found it hard to believe that a person like her actually exists in the real world.<br />
<br />
But such imprudence perfectness, is what makes her harder to be approached, thus causing her to be isolated.<br />
<br />
<!--pg 30--><br />
At the same day, due to the teacher's circumstances, the 4th lesson became a self-study session. I turned around and tried to talk to Kiritani, but before I could say anything, he goes "I only slept for 2 hours yesterday" and announced proudly that he didn't have enough sleep, then fell on the desk prostrately and began to sleep like a log.<br />
<br />
Having nothing much to do, I grabbed the novel I bought yesterday from my bag, and opened the page that had a bookmark.<br />
<br />
Soon after I opened the page, I closed the novel in panic as I realized the bookmark in it was otaku-like. This is bad, I made a mistake. This is a light novel that I had labeled "will only read when I'm on the way to school in the train". Inside my bag has 2 novels and because both of them had the similar book cover and same in size, so it is easy for me to mistaken them. I could distinguish them without reading the content by using 2 different bookmarks: one is a trading card of the game I like; one is a plain one that I got from the book shop when I bought a mystery-genre novel.<br />
<br />
I quickly checked around me. Luckily, it seemed that no one saw the trading card. To me who's trying hard to be a 'hidden otaku', it is such a foolish act to read the wrong light novel in the class. I reflected on my own action and determined to be more careful next time. This time for sure, I picked and opened the mystery-genre novel correctly.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 31--><br />
How unfortunate, as I started to read, a group of girls at my right were talking loudly, causing me unable to concentrate on reading.<br />
<br />
"More like, isn't Momo something? Last time Miho saw her walking together with a guy who seems like a salary man in Shibuya!"<br />
<br />
"You serious?! Isn't that teen prostitution?? Is it true that she is a play girl? Though she denies it strongly."<br />
<br />
How should I put this, in short, it was a conversation from a living creature called 'girl'. One that I will never get involved with, attitude-wise.<br />
<br />
Because of that conversation, where I was forced to hear even though I didn't want to, all the words I managed to read, didn't get to form as a story in my mind.<br />
<br />
"Don'cha think the part where she dated more than 5 guys simultaneously at middle school is true? A girl from class C who was in the same middle school as her said so."<br />
<br />
"Eeh... wasn't that too absurd? The person in topic did deny that as well."<br />
<br />
"But Momo never talked about her love life right? Isn't that suspicious?"<br />
<br />
Dated 5 guys simultaneously in middle school..... If that is true, how much of a slut can she be. To make it worse, selling herself to a salary man? Nowadays, high school girls sure are scary.<br />
<br />
"Hey guys, what were you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Momo!?"<br />
<br />

Then she pat the small girl's head. The small girl replied happily with an "Um!". Aaah.... how wonderful this is. Even her voice is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Perhaps realizing I was looking at her, she turned her face towards me for a moment.<br />
<br />
That is the first time, that I could see her face clearly.<br />
<br />
I was shocked.<br />
<br />
A fair skin that is very white, and a beautiful look.<br />
<br />
A beauty that will make one shocked and charmed with just a single glare.<br />
<br />
Very soon she changed her direction back to the small girl. And I walk passed them without stopping at all.<br />
<br />
My heartbeat is getting stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
An angel.<br />
<br />
I saw an angel.<br />
<br />
A kindness that straight away helped the small girl without a single sign of hesitation, a beautiful face that charms everything that looked at it. This girl who possessed both of these traits, is an angel herself.<br />
<br />
Such high school female student, is it really alright for her to exist in this world?<br />
<!--PG 21--><br />
The fact that I am going to the same school as that angel makes me feel very grateful. Then, I became greedier. I wanted to know her name. I wanted to get closer to her. If possible, I wanted to be in the same class as her, though I don't even know whether or not she is in the same grade as I do.<br />
<br />
As both my hope and anxiety were getting stronger, the entrance ceremony held in gymnasium was ended.<br />
<br />
I went to my classroom according to the announcement, then find myself a seat. It is a window seat at the most left, 2nd row from the back.<br />
<br />
Soon after I got onto my seat, I tried to look out for the girl I met this morning.<br />
<br />
But for me whose seat is at the 2nd row from the back, I could only see most of the students' back. Since there are a few female student with straight black hair, so I can't search for her with only back appearance.<br />
<br />
To begin with, I don't even know if she is a new student or not, so for her to be in the same class as I am is something close to miracle.<br />
<br />
As suggested by homeroom teacher, each of us came out to give a self-introduction, and in the midst of this, it happened.<br />
<br />
A miracle happened.<br />
<!--PG 22--><br />
At the exact middle of the first row in front, a girl who sat at opposite of the teacher's desk stood up and went to the front of teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
That face........ is the angel I saw this morning while going to school.<br />
<br />
I felt extremely happy and also until my hand was trembling.<br />
<br />
Fluttering her black hair, she walk gallantly towards the front of the teacher's desk.<br />
<br />
Though I could only took a glimpse of her look this morning, now that I look at her again, she really is beautiful.<br />
<br />
Fair skin and big clear eyes. Long eyelashes that could almost create shades. Straight hair that is glazing black. Beautiful and well proportioned standing pose. Everything seems like a paint.<br />
<br />
Not just me, probably all guys in the class were staring at her.<br />
<br />
Her figure, atmosphere, were completely my ideal. At this time, without caring about the fact that we had just met, my heart was strongly captivated by her.<br />
<br />
meanwhile.<br />
<br />
"I'm Hasegawa Midori, nice to meet you."<br />
<br />
She finished her short speech in an unsociable tone, then return back to her seat without any hesitation.<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher said we had our own freedom to talk about anything, everyone would still at least mentioned the middle school they went to and the place they live. <!--PG 23-->Then from there some would further talk about their hobbies or the club they wish to join, as a way to appeal and give others a feeling that they wanted to blend into the class quickly.<br />
<br />
But for her, without even a sign of smiling, went back to her seat quickly, and ended her self-introduction in an instant. Compare with the kind girl this morning who smiled kindly towards a kid, she now gave off a cold aura, and was completely a different person.<br />
<br />
All classmate that watched this were dumbfounded, then fall into silent and forgot to applause.<br />
<br />
She is a beauty, but unfriendly and weird.<br />
<br />
On the first day of school, her(Hasegawa Midori) image was firmly engrave just like that for all classmates.<br />
<br />
But, my feeling was not affected by that.<br />
<br />
Moreover, I was getting more interested in her.<br />
<br />
She might be feeling shy, or was stage frighten, or maybe she was originally unfriendly.<br />
<br />
Nevertheless, the expression I saw this morning when I was traveling to school, I believe that was her true self.<br />
<br />
I wanted to talk with her.<br />
<br />
I wanted to see her smile once again.<br />
<!--PG 24--><br />
Able to like someone in the first day of school, maybe my high school life has a promising future.<br />
<br />
Ever since that day, Hasegawa Midori is the only one I look at.<br />
<br />
********<br />
<br />
1 week after enrollment.<br />
<br />
As I am being very cautious, so the fact that I am an otaku was not known by anyone yet.<br />
<br />
I managed to make only 1 friend. A guy named Kiritani who was seated behind me. With him being friendly and easy to talk to, I was able to talk to him very soon in break time. Obviously, unlike me who is an otaku, he is normal.<br />
<br />
That day, a discussion was conducted by homeroom teacher to choose a class representative. But no one propose a candidate, and we fall into a troubled situation.<br />
<br />
"If it is not decided then it will not end you know"<br />
<br />
Even though the homeroom teacher tried to threaten us, there still isn't anyone who would propose a candidate.<br />
<!--PG 25--><br />
The class is getting noisier. It is very likely that everyone is thinking stuffs like "can't someone just take over that job". Of course, I am one of them.<br />
<br />
Then, a hand was raised.<br />
<br />
I was shocked to see the one who raised that hand.<br />
<br />
It was Hasegawa Midori's.<br />
<br />
She proposed candidacy for herself as the class committee.<br />
<br />
"Hasegawa-san, do you want to be the class representative?"<br />
<br />
"Yes"<br />
<br />
naturally, without anyone opposing, it was concluded and ended quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The discussion was over, it is now break time.<br />
<br />
I had a few questions in my mind, so I turned around and muttered to Kiritani.<br />
<br />
"It's a mystery isn't it..... Hasegawa doesn't seems to be the type who likes to stand out, so why is she proposing herself as a candidate."<br />
<br />
"Kashiwada, it seems like you talk about Hasegawa a lot. So like, you like her?"<br />
<br />
"Hey, don't say that in a loud voice!"<br />
<!--PG 26--><br />
I check my surrounding in panic. After confirming that no one noticed it, I felt relieve.<br />
<br />
Until now I had never talk to Hasegawa Midori even once. No, I made a mistake. To be precise, I had not talk to any girls in this class even once. My plan of getting a girlfriend in high school was already in trouble.<br />
<br />
"Give up, even though she is a beauty, isn't she's giving off a feeling of 'I don't want to talk to any useless human'? So she definitely won't care about you. Besides, she talks to no one and read only books even in break times."<br />
<br />
It is true, It is just as Kiritani said, Hasegawa Midori gives off an indescribable atmosphere and made it hard to approach her. Always wearing a cold face, I had never seen her talking happily with other classmate.<br />
<br />
In break times, she will either stay in her seat reading book, or do her class representative work quietly. I could only see this as she's trying distanced herself from the rest.<br />
<br />
But I will never take this as her true personality. After all, I had witnessed those: her kindness, and her smile.<br />
<br />
She is now cleaning the blackboard earnestly without making any noise. I noticed something while observing her: most of the class representative's work are actually miscellaneous chores.<br />
<!--PG 27--><br />
"Hasegawa--"<br />
<br />
At that moment, the homeroom teacher called her. She stopped cleaning the blackboard and left the classroom.<br />
<br />
"...Alright!"<br />
<br />
Saying that, I made a decision and stood up.<br />
<br />
"Ah? What's wrong, Kashiwada?"<br />
<br />
Even though I could hear Kiritani talking to me, I continue to walk until I reached the blackboard. In place of Hasegawa Midori, who was called by the homeroom teacher, I cleaned the part of the blackboard she left unerased earlier.<br />
<br />
After I finished cleaning and went back to my seat, Hasegawa Midori had come back. Looking at the blackboard that is now clean, she became wonderingly. As if she thought someone helped her, she looked around restlessly.<br />
<br />
It feels like..... she also caught a glimpse of me.<br />
<br />
"I wonder if Hasegawa noticed it was me..."<br />
<br />
"No no no, there is no way she would, isn't it!?"<br />
<br />
'How much delusion are you having?' While Kiritani said in disgust, somewhere deep in my heart believed that Hasegawa Midori had noticed that it was me. <!--PG 28-->Though I'm not even sure if there is any proof for this.<br />
<br />
After that, I continued to assist Hasegawa Midori in her class representative chores wholeheartedly.<br />
<br />
It will be the best if I could say "let me help you" right in front of her, but unfortunately I do not have such Riajuu skill. More like it is embarrassing.<br />
<br />
Ever since then, I had always help Hasegawa in her class representative work. The things I mainly did are: clean the blackboard and write the timetable for that day. These 2 tasks are the only tasks I could do in secret when Hasegawa is not around.<br />
<br />
Assisting her secretly while she is not looking, yet believing someday she will found out about me. In such manner, I continued to help her everyday.<br />
<br />
*********<br />
<br />
2 Weeks after enrollment.<br />
<br />
All groups in the class are already fixed in place, and I was able to have a little more conversation with people other than Kiritani. Even so, I'm still not able to talk to girls, even with guys I talked mostly with Kiritani only.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 29--><br />
<br />
Hasegawa was still alone for most of the time. I had thought of talking with her, but obviously I do not have the guts to. Helping her in her class representative chores is already the best I could do.<br />
<br />
With her releasing a cold aura that makes it hard to initial a conversation, I got one step closer into fully understanding the difficulty of approaching her.<br />
<br />
Hasegawa Midori is a 'superhuman'. Since we didn't have any test yet so I'm not sure about her result, but based on her responses every time she was called by teacher in the class, I believe her results will be quite good for all subjects. Besides that, I also managed to witness how athletic she is. Though boys and girls are separated in PE, whenever there is health education in the class, I can see the girls who are having their PE on the ground through the window beside my seat. So whenever I am in the health class, I will be dazed by the other class over there. Every time the PE class began, the first thing the girls do is always running around the ground for 5 turns, and Hasegawa will definitely be the first or the second person running in front.<br />
<br />
She is intelligent and beautiful. She is also literary skilled and athletic. Though such thing is normal in galge, I found it hard to believe that person like her actually exists in the real world.<br />
<br />
But such imprudence perfectness, is what makes her harder to be approached, thus causing her to be isolated.<br />
<br />
<!--pg 30--><br />
At the same day, due to the teacher's circumstances, the 4th lesson became a self-study session. I turned around and tried to talk to Kiritani, but before I could say anything, he goes "I had only slept for 2 hours yesterday" and announced proudly that he didn't have enough sleep, then fell on the desk prostrately and began to sleep like a log.<br />
<br />
Having nothing much to do, I grabbed the novel I bought yesterday from my bag, and opened the page that had a bookmark.<br />
<br />
Soon after I opened the page, I closed the novel in panic as I realized the bookmark in it was otaku-like. This is bad, I made a mistake. This is a light novel that I had labeled "will only read when I'm on the way to school in the train". Inside my bag has 2 novels and because both of them had the similar book cover and same in size, so it is easy for me to mistaken them. I could distinguish them without reading the content by using 2 different bookmarks: one is a trading card of the game I like; one is a plain one that I got from the book shop when I bought a mystery-genre novel.<br />
<br />
I quickly check around me. Luckily, it seemed that no one saw the trading card. To me who's trying hard to be a 'hidden otaku', it is such a foolish act to read the wrong light novel in the class. I reflected on my own action and determined to be more careful next time. This time for sure, I had pick and open the mystery-genre novel correctly.<br />
<br />
<!--PG 31--><br />
How unfortunate, as I started to read, a group of girls at my right were talking loudly, causing me unable to concentrate in reading.<br />
<br />
"More like, isn't Momo something? Last time Miho saw her walking together with a guy who seems like a salaryman in Shibuya!"<br />
<br />
"You serious?! Isn't that teen prostitution?? Is it true that she is a play girl? Though she denies it strongly."<br />
<br />
How should I put this, in short, it was a conversation from a living creature called 'girl'. One that I will never get involved with, attitude-wise.<br />
<br />
Because of that conversation, where I were forced to hear even though I don't want, all the words I manage to read, didn't get to form as a story in my mind.<br />
<br />
"Don'cha think the part where she dated more than 5 guys simultaneously at middle school is true? A girl from class C who was in the same middle school as her said so."<br />
<br />
"Eeh... wasn't that too absurd? The person in topic did deny that as well."<br />
<br />
"But Momo had never talk about her love life right? Isn't that suspicious?"<br />
<br />
Dated 5 guys simultaneously in middle school..... If that is true, how much of a slut can she be. To make it worse, selling herself to a salaryman? Nowaday's high school girls sure are scary.<br />
<br />
"Hey guys, what were you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Momo!?"<br />
<br />
