It felt like we'd returned to the last week ofwinter.In any case, my silly wife cuddled in my embrace and slept soundlyas usual. The warmth of our bodies was enough to keep her fromsensing the drop in temperature. Add to that, the comfort of ourbed and being by my side was a perfect combination to make herforget even the freezing cold of winter.The same couldn't be said for my other girls though.To tell the truth, I woke up from the vibration of my phone. It's anearly morning call from one of them.I picked it up and upon seeing the name of the caller, their imagewhile rolled up in the bed immediately popped into my head.Casting off the remaining drowsiness in my head, I tapped 'answer'and the video call started to connect with the loading notificationspinning in the middle of my screen.\"Ruki… Good morning. I need help.\"With her beautiful pointy nose taking on a scarlet color, Mihopitifully looked straight at me. A second later, she sniffed roughlywhich resulted in a frown.Not counting her nasally voice, that peach-colored nose alone wasenough clue as to what was bothering her.Knowing her sleeping habit, the sudden rain pushed her immunesystem past its threshold.She's someone who often sleeps without a blanket on. On top ofthat, her room has AC which she seldom turns off.It's a habit born from her occasional hint of inspiration in themiddle of the night. She would sometimes wake up and run to herpiano right away.What's that got to do with her AC? Well, she wanted to keep herroom temperature stable like that.Alas, the sudden shift in temperature would always catch her offguard. Like today.\"Mhm. Good morning. Say no more, wait for me. I'll sneak insideyour house. It'll be my first attempt so… give me directions.\"\"You know it's impossible. I won't miss school. Pick me up?\"Miho laughed before shaking her head and providing a differentapproach.Well, like I said, I had never been able to sneak to her room yet.Whenever she would catch a cold like this in the past, I would bringher home or somewhere we could rest – sometimes skipping a classor two until her condition turned for the better.It looks like today won't be any different.\"Alright. I'll be there but take your med right away and try to sleepsome more.\"Miho didn't make it difficult for me to persuade her. She obedientlynodded and smiled. Then after demanding a kiss over the screen,she energetically jumped out of bed to get a cold medicine.When she returned I reminded her to wrap herself like a maki rollwith her blanket. Then I watched her gradually fall back to sleepbefore ending the call.With that, my first destination today was set.Looking at the time, I also opted to close my eyes again, hoping foranother hour of sleep.Thankfully, I was successful.When I opened my eyes again, it was still a little dark outside. Akanewas already awake, greeting me with a good morning kiss.From there, our day started as usual. The first half an hour wasspent in bed, our desire and affection overflowing. Relieving theside effect of the tea was definitely just an add-on to our alreadyactive lovemaking.Then I spent the next half an hour practicing keyboard andreviewing Mizuki's lessons.Akane made breakfast during that time and when I joined herdownstairs, we first did our regular exercise before eating.Even though we used to only shower in the morning, we opted fora dip in the tub today because of the rain.When everything was done and we finished preparing for our day,we went over our plans.Not counting my promise with Miho, there's still a lot on my list.As for Akane, her day will mostly be spent with either her friends orthe other girls. They have plans to come and watch Fuyu's matchand perhaps, Aika and Sena too.She even teased that they might also show up at Satsuki's match.Well, I'm not against it. And Satsuki will surely be glad for moresupport.I just had to juggle myself a bit more than yesterday, right?Not a problem at all. I bought the Shadow Clone scroll andmastered it in my sleep. I'll split myself up into multiple clones to beat different places at the same time.As if!Anyway, I'll find a way to make it work.If there's a will, there's a way. Right?Fortunately, the rain let up when Akane and I started our walk tothe train station.--After my trip to the other school which consists of at least arrivingat their school gate four times escorting different girls – I also usedthe chance to check on Sena and Aika, giving them an earlyencouragement before their matches today – I arrived at our schooljust a good minute before Shio entered our classroom.She started by announcing that the same as yesterday, we onlyhave half a day of class and the rest would be free time.Obviously, everyone rejoiced at it.Also, those who were absent yesterday had returned except forSatsuki and the silent guy.Although his suspension hasn't been announced yet, it's already ineffect.Well, no one cared whether he was there except for those whoknew him personally. Given that the guy only talked with Ogawa orTadano, they just treated his absence as the extension of hissickness from yesterday.And with the news of the Girl's Basketball Club advancing to thesemifinals, most of those who didn't come to watch yesterdayexpressed their intent to cheer for them.With Nami taking the lead, they started organizing a plan evenbefore Shio finished her announcements.Well, she didn't stop them. For sure, she's in the same mood aseveryone, excited and perhaps proud of the grumpy girl who madea name for herself yesterday.\"Onoda-kun, what about you? Are you not coming?\"Perhaps noticing me only quietly watching at my seat, Wakaba, wholooked like she was already over with her awkwardness towards me,asked.When the others heard that, attention instantly focused on me.Welp. I wasn't that proactive because Nami could already do thatherself and there's nothing much to add anymore. But I guess withhow high-key we've become lately, there's a lot of them who weremore curious how things would develop around us.Actually, I wouldn't be surprised to hear other students openlydiscussing my vague yet clear relationship with the girlssurrounding me.That sounded confusing but that's probably how they see it.Without confirmation, it's very vague. And yet, with howaffectionate we often are, only those blind or disillusioned woulddismiss that as nothing.\"Is that even a question? Of course, I will. In fact, I'll suggest that wemake some banners to show our support for them. What do youthink?\"And upon mentioning that, Saki, Chii and Aya produced materialsfor it. They came prepared.It's something we talked about last night when I called them tocheck in and say good night.Some were immediately amazed and even got hyped at theprospect.And obviously, some weren't pleased that I was getting theattention again.Let's not name them anymore. They're irrelevant to what we'replanning to do anyway.With that, Wakaba could only shake her head at how absurd itbecame before sitting back down.Aya came to the rescue though and grabbed her friend's hands,asking her to help. Kashiwagi, who was nearby, laughed at the turnof events.Perhaps if she's any closer to me, I might've been subjected to aslap on my shoulder by her.Not long after that, Shimura, Misumi and eventually Kanzaki alsosprang up to take the initiative.In the end, Shio declared that our first period was another freetime. It's her contribution to our class's cheering squad.That aside, she soon continued with her announcements.It’s mainly about the camping trip, giving us the details and what weshould prepare.Setsuna-nee, Juri, and another person from their department werealready here at our school, having a meeting with Hayashi-senseiand the Principal.As it’s something everyone was also looking forward to, that becameanother topic our class discussed while making those banners.What a lively morning.
