Chapter 32 - 30: Early Graduation
As sunlight crept through the curtains, Zaboru stirred awake, his mind buzzing with excitement and determination. After a quick shower and breakfast, he grabbed his school bag and headed to Hibana High, ready to set his plan into motion.
The morning classes passed in a blur, his thoughts consumed by what he would say to Headmaster Kaoru Sayama. When the lunch bell rang, Zaboru wasted no time, making his way to the headmaster's office.
Knocking lightly on the door, he heard a calm voice from within. "Come in."
Inside, Kaoru Sayama sat behind her desk, her attention on a stack of documents. She looked up as he entered. "Oh, a student? Please, have a seat. State your name and what you'd like to discuss."
Zaboru bowed politely and sat. "Headmaster Sayama, my name is Zaboru Renkonan from Class 12-A. I'd like to apply for early graduation."
Kaoru raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Early graduation, you say? And why do you wish to graduate early, Renkonan-kun?"
Zaboru met her gaze with determination. "I want to start my own business, Headmaster."
Her expression shifted slightly, a mix of surprise and skepticism. "A business? What kind of business, and do you have your parents' approval?"
Zaboru nodded confidently. "I do. The business is focused on video game consoles, something I've been working on for a while now."
