[Yuto Sato’s point of view]

The day after attending a study session at Fuyune’s.

It was during the fifth period break that I remembered its existence.

“Oops, I forgot to do my assignment.”

I heard one of my classmates muttering this and realized that I hadn’t done the assignment either.

I had to hand in the assignment for the next class …… and it was by the teacher who is said to be the strictest and scariest teacher in the school, of all places.

What should I do? …… He’s the kind of teacher who will severely scold students who forget to do their assignments.

If this keeps up…..

“…… that’s it!”

I had a great idea in my head and decided to take immediate action.

“Fuyune.”

I went to Fuyune, who was preparing for her next class, and spoke to her.

“What is it, Sato kun?”

“I forgot to do my assignment for the next class, so let me copy your, Fuyune.”

“……”

Whether it was because she didn’t expect me to forget the assignment or because she didn’t expect me to ask her to copy it,……, Fuyune was speechless with surprise.

“….No.”

Fuyune refused crisply.

You know I’m going to be scolded if I don’t do this,…… but why,……?

“P-Please, Fuyune.”

“I’m saying this for your sake, Sato. If you do that, I won’t be able to help you, Sato.”

…… No, if you’re saying it’s for my sake, you’d better let me copy it.

“There’s still time before classes start. If you start working on it now, you can still manage to get it done in time. ────”

“I’m really counting on you, Fuyune. I’ll try not to forget next time.”

“…….”

I interrupted Fuyune’s words and asked her to help

　
Fuyune was a little hesitant, but then she gave a small nod.

“Just this one time,……, really just this one time, okay?”

“I know.”

I received the notebook for the assignment from Fuyune and immediately started to copy it at my seat.

On the way there, I heard Fuyune and a male classmate having a conversation like this.

“Um, Shinomiya san. May I copy it too?—“

“No, you can’t. You forgot to do it before, didn’t you? The teacher will be angry with you, and you’ll have to think hard about it.”

“Yes”

　
Pfft, that’s a shame…Fuyune gave me special permission because I’m special.

I chuckled inwardly as I looked at my rejected classmates.

But at this time, Sato Yuto was greatly mistaken.

The reason Fuyune gave permission …… was because Fuyune knew …… and had seen how sincere and earnest Yuto Sato had been in the past.

He had never once forgotten an assignment in his life, but this time he forgot …… something must have been going on.

So Fuyune gave him special permission for this one time only.

But without realizing it, he had already gotten a taste of it.

He didn’t even realize that he was taking advantage of Fuyune’s trust.

…Fuyune had a stubborn attitude at first, but she still let me take a picture…I think it’ll be fine next time.

I was just thinking that I didn’t want to spend time studying because there’s a game I’ve gotten into recently.

Even if she say no again, I’m sure she’ll let me take a picture if I beg like before.

Thus, I chose to be lazy.

Without thinking about the consequences.

And I don’t know at this time.

The future that lies ahead of my self-inflicted choice, which I chose …… not to try and understand.

I never thought that the day would come when I would become the laughingstock of the whole school. ……

And one more thing.

“………… Sato kun. You ……”

I didn’t know at the time that Fuyune was giving me a suspicious look.

“Yes, Minase san”
