Chapter 271: 3.1

After school that day. Ichihashi approached Horikita with some hesitation, who was sitting in front of her.

"Um, Horikita-san... Can I have a minute?"

She rarely speaks to Horikita since she doesn't have strong connections with her. Normally, one would think that it would be about the upcoming festival...

However, the item in her hand implied something different.

"What is it?"

"Actually, I have a favor to ask you. You have student council work later today, don't you?"

"Yes. As I told the class a while ago, I have student council work to do. I can't help you with the festival."

"Yes, well, that's not what I meant. Can you please send this...?"

With these words, she presented a letter. A glimpse of a heart sticker clasped the envelope's mouth.

"What's this?"

"It's a love letter..."

"Eh?"

No wonder she looked puzzled, unable to comprehend the meaning for a moment. Even though we live in an age where diversity is accepted, it's understandable that a love letter from a girl to another girl would be upsetting in other ways besides matters of the opposite sex.

"Oh, It's not like it's from me to Horikita-san or something. Actually, one of my friends asked me to give it to Nagumo Miyabi, the student council president."

"To the student council president? But isn't that something you should give in person?"

If you're going to confess your feelings to someone you have a crush on, face to face is naturally the expectation.

"She asked me to deliver it to him because she was too nervous to give it herself. But I don't have the courage to hand it to the student council president in person either..."

Nagumo's a more social person than, say, former Student Council President Horikita Manabu, but he was still a senior student and representative of this school.

It would be quite a hurdle for someone who has no contact with him to approach him. Horikita, on the other hand, was different. It was easy to imagine them conversing about student council business on a daily basis.

"I understand the situation, but..."

"Please. She's been struggling with it for a long time now, and... she's finally found the courage to do so."

If it had been the Horikita of a year ago, she might've refused this request.

But building relationships with classmates is important to her now. In order to make up for the lost trust in the unanimous special exam, there was no way around it. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"Okay. I'll see if I can somehow find an opening and give it to him for you.

Is that okay?"

"Uh, yes."

Ichihashi answered, but she looked a bit brusque.

"Is there still a problem?"

"Um, well, there's a little problem with this love letter."

Upon receiving the letter, Horikita noticed that there was no name written on the front or back. This meant that the sender was unknown until he looked through the contents.

"Can I assume that it is written inside who this letter is from?"

"I don't know... If it were normal, I'd imagine it would be written. That girl, if she was just happy to tell him how she feels, she might not have written it."

In other words, neither the deliverer nor the receiver would know the sender of the love letter.

"That's a little hard to accept. Of course, I'll explain when I give it to him, but if I'm not careful, he might mistake it for a letter from me."

Saying she received it from someone else despite it actually being a letter from herself — the possibility of Nagumo taking it like that cannot be said to be zero.

"Well then, can't you ask someone else? Like a boy you know in the student council or... No? I'd like for you to give it today somehow."

"That's easy for you to say..." Despite her concern, Horikita thought for a moment and nodded.

"I'll do my best, but there's no guarantee that I'll be able to give it to him, okay?"

"I'm glad you accepted. I'm sure she'll be very happy."

Although reluctantly, Horikita agreed to deliver the love letter to Nagumo.

Normally, she would've asked her who the letter was from, but Horikita wasn't interested and didn't try to dig deeply.fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
