Chapter 161: To the Midterm Exam
“Huh, so you guys will be staying at Umi’s grandma’s place.”
The day after, the four of us gathered to listen to the report– no, the conclusion of the said negotiations.
Said result was that during the long weekend, we would visit Umi’s grandma’s house. The place itself was two or three prefectures away from here, so we would be going further than we previously planned.
Sora-san said that they would be holding a memorial service for a distant relative around that time. Originally, Daichi-san would be going there alone, but the sudden change in his work schedule made him unable to do so.
It was decided that aside from me, Umi and Riku-san, Sora-san would also go with us to help out with the memorial service. Sora-san would stay at her in-law’s house while the rest of us would be staying at a nearby inn. Riku-san would be there to watch over us.
Although they didn’t let us go on our own, there was a hot spring near the place we would be staying at, so at least we accomplished half of our initial goal.
Was I satisfied with this? Not really, but I really couldn’t complain.
“Well, there’s still a catch. They said that even if I can’t get first place, I still have to raise my grades for the midterm while Maki has to try to get into the top twenty. That’s why, Maki, let’s work hard, shall we?”
“N-No way… Ugh… Fine, I’ll do my best, Sensei.”
