Chapter 29 - Discussion

Drama club. A lively atmosphere could be heard from inside their room, going inside, it would be seen that what they were currently doing was discussing. With chairs arranged in a circle, the heated discussion continued into an argument.

"Disagree! Ultramon's story is better!"

"Stupidly, Ultramon is too childish! I told you Romei and Julia would be better!"

"Right, right!"

"No, I disagree. The Romei and Julia drama is too ordinary and mainstream. We did it last year, and then again last year. I think we should make a completely new story."

""""Ohhhhh, Sasuga secretary-chan """""

"Wait guys! I think an energetic drama would be better! Sports drama, martial arts drama, historical and war drama. Something vibrant, energetic....!!! "

"Chief, calm yourself. The fire has already reached your head."

"Yes, but I think... "

And so on. This went on for about 30 minutes. And instead of getting results, the opposite happened.

Ryousuke, who was just sitting with a dumb face, didn't understand why things could be like this. This club was too crazy with their inspiration...

----------

30 minutes ago.

He walked towards the club room as usual. Only, this time he was alone. Joozu-san, starting from today will go with Juutaro who will drive her to the club. What a nice guy.

Ryousuke felt that it was good. Because if he had to walk with Joozu-san to the club room, he was worried that people might thinking weird things about them. Especially after Juutaro and her dated, it only made it worse.

So, it was a good thing to walk alone to the club room. Opening the door, he saw that there seemed to be something different today. The seats inside seemed to be made in a circle, and there the senpai and his clubmates were currently talking about something with serious faces.

"Good afternoon", he greeted them.

"ou! Afternoon Junior Class!"

"""noon Toru-kun"""

Nodding, he walked towards their place and asked about what was going on. "What are we going to do today? There seems to be something different."

"Ahh, we are going to discuss about the story that we are going to perform. Today, it looks like we'll be deciding what story to choose"

"oh, I see. So what are we going to choose?"

"Ultramon!"

"No no, it's better Borbie right?"

"Haaahh?! I told you-"

And that was that. After that more and more people came in and the more heated the discussion became. It was troublesome, Ryousuke just kept quiet. He felt that the ideas expressed by the other members were enough-no, too much. He would be a fool if he added another title, so aside from staring at the people arguing with each other, he just sat quietly. Waiting for all of this to be over.

----------

"ENOUGH!!!"

""""....."""

"""""......""""""

"..."

Suddenly, in the middle of the commotion, someone shouted very loudly. Making everyone who had been arguing, stop their arguments and fell silent while staring at the person who reprimanded them.

"Guys, stop! We can't go on like this. This discussion won't end if we continue to be selfish! What we need right now is tolerance, tolerance and inspiration!"

She stood proudly in the midst of the commotion. Like a goddess guiding her lost followers, she looked absolutely radiant in front of people who were blind to themselves. 'Wait, what was I thinking... She's obviously just an Ichiba'

Yes. That person was Ichiba, the cheerful girl.

"Ooohhhh, come to think of it, what she said has a point"

"Yes, I think we should lower our egoism for now... "

"Yes, yes. That's right"

"I also agree"

"Me too"

Murmurs of agreement began to be heard from everyone. It seemed Ichiba's words had managed to awaken them.

"Hiks... You're right, kouhai-kun. How stupid of me, as the chairman I didn't even realize such an obvious thing... Everyone, I'm sorry!!!" Chief Akira also seemed to come to his senses. He cried with a new light in his eyes, while shouting apologies to all the club members. A fire of enthusiasm could be seen burning in the background.

"It's okay, we were wrong too"

"Right. You didn't do anything wrong chairman"

"That's right."

"All of you... Thank you!!!"

Seeing that the club's situation had improved enough, Ryousuke looked at the girl in front of him with a new light. 'Ichiba... Bravo', he thought.

The Ichiba girl, seeing that things were getting back under control, sat back down with a proud face. "huhu", she puffed out her flat chest.

"Thank you, Ichiba kouhai. You've made us realize. Un, we should probably look at this from a new perspective. So, does anyone have any ideas for this problem?" the chairman asked.

"I do!"

"Secretary-chan. Tell me what your idea is."

Secretary-chan raised her hand. Then after being allowed to speak by the chairman, she stood up and started explaining her plan.

"uhum. Since we are here to decide what play we are going to perform, it is better if we don't rush the choice. So, in my opinion, for today we should focus more on finding a good story. And this story should be a story that is less common, so that we will go deeper into the drama that we are going to do"

"Yes, I agree"

"Me too"

"Yes, me too"

"Okay. Then I have an idea! Each member will choose one story that they think is good. And on Thursday, we'll see which one is the best by hearing a summary of the stories. How does that sound good?" the chairman suggested.

""""" agree!!!! """""

With that, the task was finally decided. The club members started looking for what story each of them would choose. So did Ryousuke. Although, he decided to look for it elsewhere...

----------

He was currently walking towards his destination looking for stories that might be good for drama. And where else would he look if it wasn't the library?

"Toru-kun, where is the library~?"

Of course, he wasn't alone. Walking with him were three other people who also decided to search the school library. All three of them were first-years, just like him.

The first one was a man. The same person who asked Him where the library was.

"Takaki, you just follow me. Don't talk too much."

His name was Takaki. A fat man with a face like Giont from Dorazemon. In short, he was ugly (Ryousuke's standard). Perhaps when viewed from this worldview, he was a good-looking type of man. Although his brain did not support his good looks.

"ehhh~~ but~~"

"ugh. Shut up" Ryousuke told the man to shut up. Imagine, a man with an ugly face acting spoiled and stupid at the same time. Of course Ryousuke felt like getting away from him. Although, he couldn't. Because he was still his clubmate after all, and despite his behavior, he was still a harmless guy. Just imagine him as a walking mascot, even with a face like that.

"Okay, okay. I'll be quiet okay? Stop looking at me like that"

"Good. If you want to talk, just talk to those two, not me."

The other two people walking along with him were the duo of Ichiba and Una. The cheerful little girl and her best friend.

"Ehh? Why us? I don't want to" Ichiba replied. Seemingly reluctant, though her face clearly said otherwise. After all in their eyes, Takaki was a very handsome man.

"Yes, for once I agree with you Sakura. Takaki-kun is too different from me. We're not the same creature, communication is impossible" for Una's answer, it seems she's really honest with her words.

"You guysss, fine. I'll be quiet okay? I'll be quiet. Hmph"

Ugh, imagine the Giont of Dorazemon upset, with his cheeks puffed up and his eyes narrowed. What a torment for his eyes ... Ryosuke couldn't bear to look at it. So he quickly turned his attention elsewhere.

"It's better that way" he replied.
