Chapter 214 - [215]: Festival Preparations and Surprises

"Hahaha! Didn't expect it, did you! After going back and forth, we still ended up choosing this program!"

"Yakamashi!"

"Urusai!"

The people in the classroom seemed to regain their vitality, no longer mentioning the interlude from the last class.

"Tsuna, you must take time off then!" Shouko tightly gripped someone's arm.

"Mm." Tsuna nodded without hesitation.

"Shouko! It'll be troublesome, but you'll be in charge of making the omurice then." At this moment, Ajitani walked down from the podium and hugged Shouko from behind.

She originally wanted to say "heart-shaped omurice," but the words reached her mouth, and she was afraid of being beaten to death by someone.

This was also her selfish thought, considering Shouko's ear problem, telling her in advance. Moreover, Shouko could even pack Miyamura's and her bento boxes.

Everyone should have no objections.

Hearing this, Tsuna's words, which were originally intended to ask Shouko to take time off together, became a little hard to say.

"Me...?"

"That's right." Ajitani released her, nodded, and said, "When we assign tasks tomorrow, I will explain the reason to everyone, and I believe everyone will understand. So, can you not take time off then?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she started acting cute and spoiled toward Shouko.

"This..." Shouko wanted to agree but hesitated when she thought of Tsuna. Finally, she asked, "What about Tsuna?"

"Miyamura..."

Ajitani stared straight at his face and began to think. Finally, Shouko raised her hand to block her eyes, and she continued to speak:

"How about having Miyamura wear a butler uniform and attract customers at the entrance then..."

That face will definitely trick many girls... This also means they can make a fortune then.

"..." Shouko, who wanted to refuse.

At this moment, Tsuna, who couldn't stand it a little, directly spoke up and suggested:

"How about I go and be Shouko's assistant? I can still help a lot."

Shouko isn't taking time off, so it would be boring for him to take time off and stay home. His mom will likely come to school to look around, and being home alone would be even more boring.

"Haha..." Ajitani rubbed the back of her head, "Let's see tomorrow's arrangements. I can't make too big of a decision on this, haha..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't stand Shouko's look that seemed like she wanted to eat someone, and she scurried away from the back row.

Seeing this, Shouko turned around and started chatting with Takagi Sana, who had been silent behind her the whole time.

As for Nishikata in the seat next to him, Tsuna called out to him, but there was no reaction, so Tsuna shook his head and turned back.

This child is already useless; he's started overthinking things again.

The night wrapped in thin frost spread over the mountain path.

"Is that so? They changed the program again."

"Mm-hmm, I've already promised Atsuya-chan. I'll be in charge of making omurice in the back kitchen then."

At this moment, Tsuna, who was wiping his hair, had just come out of the bathroom and heard the two people in the living room discussing.

"Then I'll have to go and properly taste the heart-shaped omurice my Shouko made then."

"Miyamura Auntie, it's just regular omurice. The heart on top will be drawn by other students then."

Hearing this, Shizuka silently gave Ajitani a thumbs-up in her heart. This decision was good.

"Oh right, what was that brat assigned?" Shizuka looked at Tsuna walking into the living room and asked curiously.

"They haven't said yet. We'll only know this tomorrow."

Shouko stood up, walked to his side, took the towel from his hand, and gently wiped his hair.

Unless he was helping her in the back kitchen, she wanted Tsuna to take time off...

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Shizuka looked at the two who seemed like an old married couple, smacked her lips, and stood up: "I'm going to take a bath. You two chat."

"Tsuna..."

Shouko waited for a few minutes and only hesitated to speak after confirming that Shizuka had entered the bathroom.

"Don't worry, if you don't like it then, I'll take time off." Someone who was enjoying it instantly guessed her thoughts.

"Mm-hmm."

Shouko nodded, no longer bringing up this topic, returned the towel to him, and went to the locker to get the hairdryer.

The next day.

"Dong... dong... dong...!"

"Alright, students, class dismissed. Go eat."

The teacher with graying hair on the podium left this sentence and slowly walked out of the classroom.

"Clap clap clap..." Ajitani below directly walked onto the podium, clapped, and excitedly said:

"Alright everyone, let's assign the tasks now. Let's all work hard together then!"

As soon as her voice fell, she turned around, erased the content the teacher had written on the blackboard, and began to write on it.

One Manager, one Assistant Manager, a total of ten Maids/Butlers, two Greeters/Guides, four Chefs, two Meal Prep Assistants.

Four in the Decoration and Setup Group, two in the Costume and Props Group, two for Poster Design, two Hygiene and Safety Officers, one Photographer/Recorder.

Tsuna looked at the gradually increasing content on the blackboard and felt that the Class Monitor's preparations were very thorough.

Ajitani turned around and said to the students below:

"Alright, that's a lot. I'll arrange them one by one now. If anyone has questions, raise your hand and ask. Otherwise, if too many people ask at once, I won't be able to answer."

As time went on, about twenty minutes later, she had arranged all the positions with everyone's agreement.

Shouko in the back kitchen. No one had any objections to this because everyone had considered her ear problem.

Nishikata and Takagi were the Butler and Maid respectively. Neither of them had any objections; instead, they had a slight sense of anticipation.

There was a slight problem when it came to Tsuna, but it was quickly resolved.

Because Ajitani assigned him the position of Poster Designer, but most people expressed opposition to this suggestion, wanting him to be a Greeter/Guide or a Butler.

That face will definitely attract girls to patronize – meaning a big profit.

But Ajitani, relying on her words and the fact that Tsuna was an Art Club member, made most of the opposing people obediently shut up with just a few sentences.

Shouko also remembered the majority who wanted Tsuna to be the Butler.

As for Ajitani, her position was implicitly decided by everyone as the Manager before she even made a choice.

"Alright, does anyone else have any questions?" Ajitani on the podium finally spoke out to confirm.

Seeing everyone below shaking their heads, she walked down from the podium. Everything had been arranged.

"Ajitani-chan is getting more and more like Teacher Fujiro." After the other person came down, Shouko couldn't help but praise her.

Mainly because of Tsuna's position, she really liked it.

"Let's go, let's heat up our bento boxes first." Takagi Sana spoke out to remind them.

"Mm-hmm."

"Let's go."

Time flew by, and it was already the day before the School Festival was about to be held.

Everyone spent the entire morning in the gymnasium listening to the Principal's nonsensical speech, and in the afternoon, they had to decorate the classroom and such, so there were no classes.

Teacher Fujiro also came to the classroom to help. After all, it was everyone's first time, and she was still a little worried.
