Kitahara Hakuba took the handkerchief; he had lost count of how many girls' handkerchiefs he had used.
Kana Eto stood still, raised her right leg, and gently tapped the wooden floor with the tip of her shoe, saying:
"By the way, Saito-senpai told me that we should have a party after the Christmas Dream Festival. I think it's a good idea, but I wonder what Kitahara-sensei is thinking?"
Kitahara Hakuba was stunned for a moment, then he had to admire Saito Haruka's thoughtfulness.
She had already agreed to and approved of this matter not long ago, but she still told Kana Eto that "we need to consult with Kitahara-sensei first."
Because Kitahara Hakuba's proposal and Kitahara Hakuba's acceptance are two completely different concepts.
"Personally, I have no objection."
Kitahara Hakuba handed her a soaked handkerchief and said, "Sorry, it's all wet."
"it's okay no problem!"
Kana Eto hurriedly crumpled the damp handkerchief into a ball and wrapped it in her hand, saying, "I'd rather feel embarrassed if it were dry, it would feel like it wasn't being used."
Kami Takahashi stood to the side with an indescribable expression, shrugging her shoulders.
"Mingwa"
"Kami!" Kana Eto knew what kind of nonsense was going through her mind again.
Kitahara Hakuba smiled at the two of them:
"Although the ensemble performance is important, don't neglect your exams either, otherwise your homeroom teacher might say something about me behind my back."
The most typical example is, "The national conference is over! Why are you still making students do this and that? The most important thing now is to study and take exams!"
“Yes.” Kana Eto nodded. “Then we’ll go up first.”
"kindness."
Kitahara Hakuma followed her upstairs. The two-story journey left Eto Kana speechless. She wanted to say, "What a coincidence, Kitahara-sensei is also going up this staircase."
But the teachers' offices are upstairs; if you don't go this way, you have to go around the clubhouse building.
"Goodbye then." Kitahara Hakuba said before heading towards the third-year corridor.
"Uh, okay, goodbye." Kana Eto blushed and nodded quickly.
Looking at her flushed face, Takahashi Kami smiled and said after Kitahara Hakuma went upstairs:
"It's hilarious, they don't even dare to speak when going up the stairs."
"I shouldn't have said 'We're going up first'." Kana Eto was so frustrated that her shoulders slumped.
What about the activities for the Christmas Dream Festival?
"I don't know, this is the first time I've hosted a gathering in the name of a minister."
"Should we just leave it to Senior Yukawa and the others?"
"No, we cadres need to learn this."
Kami Takahashi leaned against the wall, raised her right foot, and placed the sole of her shoe directly on the wall covered with shoe prints. She crossed her arms and said:
"Ugh, Saito-senpai is really something. She's already left the club, yet she still keeps offering opinions. She's still got her hands on the brass band even after she's gone."
Kana Eto frowned slightly:
Don't say that

"The expenses for the gathering will definitely come from the club, right?"
Yes, that's right.

"The reason they held a party that included third-year students might be because of their own selfish motives; they're using the brass band's officers and funds as tools for flirting with Kitahara-sensei."
Kami Takahashi's words caused Kana Eto's mind to explode, and she waved her hands wildly in the air, saying:
"Jia Mei, don't say things like that!"
“Just kidding,” Kami Takahashi shrugged. “I’m just feeling sorry for Kana.”
"What do I have to regret?"
Kana Eto frowned, her brows furrowing into a V-shape. She complained, "Don't always say it's all for my own good. It just makes me overthink things and puts me in a difficult position."
"You like Kitahara-sensei, don't you?"
"Well!"
Kana Eto gasped sharply, and without thinking, she raised her hands to cover Kami Takahashi's mouth. "You...you...you...shut up!"
"Woo!"
Kami Takahashi's eyes widened, the proportion of white in her eyes was excessively high, yet she took the initiative to raise her hand and pinch her nose.
This action startled Kana Eto, causing her to release her grip and lower her voice to question:
"Are you crazy? You're pinching your own nose! You'll suffocate!"
"Because I know you'll let go if I do this," Takahashi Kami said, panting. "How?"
Kana Eto glanced at her, her face flushed, and sighed helplessly, saying, "I don't have those kinds of feelings for Kitahara-sensei. It's just the kind of affection a student has for her. There's not the slightest bit of crossing the line. I still admire her, just like Isogen-senpai and Amemori-senpai admire him."
Her words completely stunned Takahashi Kami, who asked in astonishment:
"Wait, wait a minute, you don't actually think that Isogen-senpai and Amemori-senpai are in that kind of relationship, do you?"
"Isn't it?"
Kana Eto said matter-of-factly, "It is precisely because of this longing that Isogen-senpai wanted to apply to Sapporo University. I heard that Amemori-senpai was also planning to apply to Sapporo University at first. I was also thinking of applying to Sapporo University next year."
Looking at her innocent face, Takahashi Kami raised her hand, patted her forehead in confusion, and said:
"Nai, have you always thought that kissing will make you pregnant immediately?"
what?

"Haru-tori, did you have a fight with Kitahara-sensei?"
Yuka Isomoto put her loafers in the shoe cabinet. It's getting colder and colder today, even the soles of her feet feel cold. She even thought about sticking a heat pack inside.
"Huh? Why do you say that?" Saito Harutori asked, puzzled.
"Because I heard from everyone that Kitahara-sensei and Harutori used to share an umbrella, did they have a fight?" Isomoto Yuka asked in a low voice.
Saito Harutori sighed, bent down, hooked her fingers inside the edge of her black calf socks, and pulled the slightly sagging top up:
"It was Kitahara-sensei who rushed out on his own. I chased after him, but I couldn't catch up with him at all."
Yuka Isomoto pursed her lips:
Did you say anything that would upset him?
Saito Harutori straightened her back, closed the small window of the shoe cabinet, and looked at Yuka's conflicted face, saying, "Yuka, I know what I'm doing, you don't need to worry too much. And even if the thing you're worried about really happens, I promise I will never involve you."
No, that's not what I meant.
Saito Haruka's gaze fell on her schoolbag, where there was a cartoon Aomori apple charm:
“Today’s situation is very good. Mr. Kitahara said that if I want, I can temporarily add another euphonium.”
"Mmm-one-one"
Yuuka Isomoto paused for a moment, her fingernails unconsciously curling into her palms, leaving crescent-shaped white marks.
It felt as if two little birds were fighting over the same branch in her heart. She was genuinely happy that Saito Harutori could join in, but beneath this happiness, she was no longer the only one in the ensemble, and her highlights were definitely fewer.
Or perhaps it was because he lacked the ability, which is why Kitahara Hakuba wanted Harutori to be added again.
Her thoughts were becoming increasingly distorted, even regressing to her state before the Hakodate Regional Conference. Yuka Isomoto could understand a little bit about it, and she was somewhat confused.
“But I refused.”
At this moment, Saito Haruka gently hooked her hand around Isomoto Yuka's finger, her movements gentle and soothing, "Because I think it's better for Yuka to play the tuba by herself. If she plays it again, it won't feel right."
As if Yuka Isomoto could understand it herself, she did not explain clearly why she felt "not quite right".
"Sunny Bird"
"It's alright. By the way, what's the schedule for your practice today?" Saito Harutori asked.
"Stay after school in the afternoon."
"He probably doesn't want to take up all your time, especially Yuka. You still need to worry about your grades." Saito Haruka gave a sickeningly sweet smile.
“Yes, Tsukiyo said she would help me too,” Yuka Isomoto said with a smile. “But I still want Haruno to tutor me.”
"Of course I would never say something like that to her."
"Alright, let's go."
As the two walked upstairs, they happened to run into Kana Eto and Kami Takahashi, who were chatting.
"Junior Eto, um? Why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?"
Saito Harutori took the initiative to greet her, and when she saw that Eto Kana's face was unexpectedly flushed, she couldn't help but ask, "Oh, I know, Takahashi-senpai is bullying someone again, isn't she?"
"Saito-senpai, I wasn't bullying anyone. I was just having a friendly chat with Kana." Takahashi Kami spread her hands, feigning innocence.
"Well, now that you're the vice-captain, it's probably best to learn less of Sayaka's ways, okay?"
Saito Harutori smiled, her fingertips rubbing her hair as she asked, "How are you thinking about the suggestions I made this morning?"
"Oh, about that, I just met with Mr. Kitahara, and he said it's no problem, we can do whatever we want."
Kana Eto spoke in a formal tone, like an employee reporting results to a superior, "What do you think we should do, Saito-senpai? Where should we have a gathering?"
Kami Takahashi glanced at her friend subconsciously, her brows furrowing slightly.
Even if we were to discuss it, we would do so with Yukawa-senpai and Akamatsu-senpai, not with Saito-senpai, who has long since lost all real power as a member of the leadership team.
Chanel is incredibly foolish.
