Stealing Spree
chapter-669

A few minutes after Hina rested completely, I repeated what I did for Nami. Helping her fix her clothes and wiping out those that needed to be wiped.

I also made sure to support her as she stood up. The girl tried to laugh the soreness off but it’s easily noticeable as soon as she took her first step.

Upon seeing that, I lightly flicked her forehead and scolded her. The girl stuck her tongue out to try to get out of it. However, being the stubborn guy I was, I supported her by enclosing my arms around her waist and sending her back to their clubroom like that.

Before going there though, I messaged Nami and Saki. The two girls met us before the door to assist and help Hina hide what happened.

Although there’s a huge possibility that her friend, Kikuchi, could notice it, she told me that she’d deny it at all cost. Letting Nami and Saki know about it was enough for now.

As for the possible reactions of the other members of their club, I couldn’t care less about the three guys. Arisa-senpai would most likely be suspicious and if Izumi-senpai was already made aware of my relationship to the three, she’d react the same.

I told them to tell me if something happened so I left it at that for now. Since I didn’t hear anything once they entered their clubroom, I put down my worry temporarily.

The sofa that we left now had a small bloodstain on it. And with how much the three of us sweated as well as the love juices that dripped down from them, I thought of bringing something to clean it come Monday. It’d be bad if the smell accumulated. At least, general hygiene should be observed.

Moreover, we’d surely use the room more often from now on.

Upon reaching the Student Council Room, Shizu, who’s already alone inside, gave me a quick glare before bestowing me the legendary silent treatment. No matter what I said or did, the girl remained focused elsewhere.

As it was truly my blunder, I didn’t try to lie my way out and just accepted the punishment. I still did my job as her secretary though.

I made her tea, arranged what needed to be arranged and remained on standby just in case she needed my help.

Throughout the time that was spent in silence, Shizu would still occasionally look at me followed by a sigh.

She’s definitely disappointed. However, she just couldn’t be mad at me.

Due to that, I tried thinking of ways to reduce her displeasure. Unfortunately, everything I could think of needed me to talk or interact with her.

There’s truly no shortcut with someone who chose to be silent rather than nag the other party and express their discontentment.

Giving a present was plausible, however, given the current circumstances what kind of present I could get?

Anyway, while Shizu remained silent, I picked up a pen and paper and began writing. I had no specific topic to write on and no set literary piece to do. I just wrote whatever came to my mind.

After being in the Literature Club for more than a month and doing the Club Activities no matter how late I always arrived, I could certainly feel that my skill in writing was now a lot better than the first time I wrote something for that club.

Anyway, that piece actually became the bridge that connected me to the girls in the Literature Club. So, I didn’t think it was a great blunder.

Minutes later, the paper I was writing on became filled with ideas. But I only needed to give it one look to understand that it was filled with absurd ideas that couldn’t be connected to each other. I just wrote whatever was in my mind, after all.

And that whatever mostly consisted of my thought-up solution on how I could get out of the silent treatment.

After giving it another look to check if there’s at least one useful idea, I shook my head, crumpled the paper and threw it into the trash can.

However, because my focus was on it, I had no idea that Shizu was watching me.

As soon as our gazes met, her eyebrows raised as she turned towards the trash can.

She then stood up and went over it to pick up what I had thrown.

“Wait, Shizu. Don’t read that!” I tried stopping her. But the girl anticipated what I was going to do and dodged skillfully.

However, unbeknownst to her, I only acted at that point. With my skill, there’s no way that girl could be faster than me. It’s just a way to see the girl becoming amused. Besides, being embarrassed about something I wrote wasn’t in my vocabulary. It’s the reflection of what’s in my mind anyway.

The only thing that wasn’t planned here was the fact that she would be interested in something I deemed useless.

As Shizu returned to her seat with the crumpled paper in her hand, I noticed her lips slowly curving into a smile.

She’s probably expecting ammo she could use to shoot me with. Perhaps, teasing me would be her means to get back at my blunders.

Anyway, I continued my act of trying to get it from her. In the end, after uncrumpling the paper, Shizu used one of her hands to keep me at bay.

Seconds after that, the girl who was like a grumpy cat just earlier began bursting into laughter.

Ah no. At first, she bit her lips to prevent herself from laughing. But the more she read, the more she couldn’t contain it. As evident with how much her shoulders shook.

Her clear laughter soon filled the whole room and by the time she finished reading everything I wrote, Shizu was holding her navel from how much she laughed.

“You hopeless blockhead! Come here!”

Unexpectedly, that was Shizu’s first words to me today.

While still reeling in her laughter, the usually stoic girl had a wide grin on her lips as she opened her arms wide, clearly asking me to enter her embrace.

Uh… It’s unexpected but what I deemed useless became the key to making her talk to me again.
