The dream did not seem to affect Hayakawa Naomi, and she forgot what she did in the dream. But when she woke up in the morning, Hayakawa Naomi felt a slight headache. She did not know why.
Of course, Hayakawa Naomi did not take it to heart. She got up and rubbed her face with her small hands. Then, she ran to the bathroom.
She was in a good mood today. Yesterday, her mother, Hayakawa Taduko, taught her how to make tamagoyaki.
While brushing her teeth, Hayakawa Naomi thought to herself. When I have mastered tamagoyaki, I must make it for the director. He will be shocked!
Hayakawa Naomi could not help but smile as she thought about it.
Hayakawa Taduko was very busy in the morning. Most Japanese men would have lunch at the company and go home at 9 to 11 pm. Only in the morning was the family gathering time.
Housewives had to wake up at 5 am to prepare breakfast for the family. When she saw her daughter walking by, she felt something was wrong. She looked up and thought for a while. "Hayakawa, have you put on makeup?"
"No, I haven't washed my face yet!" Hayakawa Naomi had classes for the whole day, so she did not stay at home. She packed up her things, drank a bottle of milk, and ate some toast. Then, she was ready to go to school.
But when she was at school, Hayakawa Naomi asked her mother. "Mom, can you make more food tonight? I want to learn more. "
After saying that, Hayakawa Naomi lowered her head.
Hayakawa Taduko was happy to hear her daughter's words. She praised her daughter. "Oh, you are indeed my Naomi. Do your best. Mom will make you rice balls tonight."
"Although the rice balls are simple, there are many varieties, and they are easy to carry around. You can also put fillings in them. I will teach you seriously." Hayakawa Tadako looked at her daughter's shy expression and smiled. Her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.
In Japan, most families do not forbid their children from dating. This is because this is the time when they first learn to love, and they think that it is beneficial for their children's growth. At this time, if there are no special circumstances, the family will not stop them from dating.
According to the law, a girl can get married at the age of 16. Hayakawa Tazuko was confused as she watched Naomi Hayakawa leave. "Why do I feel that Naomi looks prettier today?"
After class at noon, Hayakawa Naomi took the huge lunchbox to the club's activity room. She had received an email in the morning, informing her that the club was recruiting new members. At this time, the president was also in the activity room.
Naomi Hayakawa jogged all the way through a corridor. She heard people talking from time to time. At first, she didn't care, but after the news was repeated a few times, Naomi Hayakawa started to pay attention.
She took a closer look and realized that she recognized him. It was Yu Jiang from the next class.
Because there were often activities held by several classes, Naomi Hayakawa got to know some of her classmates, and Yujiang Wa Tani was one of them, although she wasn't very familiar with him.
Yu Jiang Wa Gu was very short, only about 1.2 meters. He had a ponytail and was wearing a red dress. He said enviously, "Have you heard? An eight-year-old transferred to this junior high school. Her name is Kuwako Ishidu! "
Although Yu Jiang Wa Gu was short, he had a special characteristic, which was that he loved to gossip. He had a wide circle of friends, and could always get the latest news in the school.
Every time there was something new in the school, the students in the next class would hear the latest news from Yu Jiang Wa Gu. Therefore, Yu Jiang Wa Gu had some fame among the students.
Across from him was Koshiko Tsuchi, a good friend of Yu Jiang Wa Gu.
"How is that possible? Will the school agree?" Koshiko Tsuchi widened her round eyes and asked incredulously.
"Sigh, I heard that a certain school director made a deal with it." Yu Jiang Wa Gu said with envy.
"Hmm, I really envy those kids who are born into rich and powerful families!"
Hayakawa Naomi Hayakawa heard this and realized that they were talking about a transfer student. Hearing this, she lost interest and quickly went to the club's activity room.
When Hayakawa Naomi reached the activity room, she saw a few people busily working in the classroom next door. From the looks of their uniforms, they were not students, but staff members. They were doing some simple cleaning and renovations.
Looking at the messy classroom next door, Hayakawa Naomi was puzzled. What was going on next door? What were they doing?
At this point, a familiar voice rang out. It was the head of the club.
Pei Zi Yun was in the club's activity room, talking to a young girl dressed in black and white, "Kuwako, you have to know that your body is your foundation."
"Now, I'm going to teach you to improve your physique. It will make your body stronger and your movements more agile. When you practice your sword skills, you will get twice the results with half the effort."
Pei Zi Yun's face was serious. When he saw Hayakawa Naomi enter, he said, "Alright, Kuwako, take a break. Today's training will end here."
"Hi, onii-chan!" Kuwako stopped what she was doing. She was sweating profusely, and even her hair was drenched. She looked extremely disheveled.
"What's this?" Hayakawa Naomi asked curiously.
"Oh, it's nothing much. It's just that the club has expanded, so I opened up two classrooms."
"Mm, you're looking at the people I hired. They're currently working on these things." Pei Zi Yun said as he pointed at Kuwako, "This is Kuwako Ishidu, our new member."
Pei Zi Yun turned around and spoke to Kuwako solemnly, "Kuwako, it's not easy to choose this path. Not only is it tough, you might even get hurt. You might even give up. It's alright."
"No, my father is a samurai, and onii-chan is a samurai. Kuwako wants to be a samurai as well. Not only must I protect my mother, I must protect onii-chan as well!" Although Kuwako looked exhausted, she clenched her fists and swore to Pei Zi Yun.
"Ai, if that's the case, you should continue working hard." Pei Zi Yun looked at Kuwako's determined face and fell silent. "If that's the case, use the medicine I gave you when you get home."
He then turned to Hayakawa Naomi and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Hayakawa Naomi listened to Pei Zi Yun's words and suddenly thought of Kuwako Ishidu. Wasn't he the transfer student she had heard about? Was he the same person?
Wasn't he too young?
However, when Hayakawa Naomi felt the weight of the lunchbox in her hands, she forgot all about it. She couldn't wait to share the delicacies she had brought with her president. She opened the lunchbox and looked at Pei Zi Yun expectantly, "I've brought tempura and sushi. President, would you like to try them?"
"Mm, thank you. I won't stand on ceremony!" Pei Zi Yun carefully picked up a box with his chopsticks and took a bite. He could not help but exclaim, "Mm mm, it's really not bad!"
"The powder is very thin, and it's not greasy at all!"
Pei Zi Yun could not help but eat another box and asked, "Is the fish inside fried?"
"Yes, I know that Yamada-kun does not like raw fish, so I fried it." Hayakawa Naomi lowered her head as she spoke. Seeing that Pei Zi Yun was enjoying his meal, she felt a sense of joy in her heart. However, she still felt a little guilty.
This was because the bulk of the bento was due to her mother's hard work. All she did was help her mother with the chores. Seeing Pei Zi Yun's satisfied expression, Hayakawa Naomi cheered herself on. She thought to herself, 'Naomi, you must work hard. Work hard and you will be able to make your own bento.'
"Very good, not bad at all." Pei Zi Yun did not understand her feelings and continued, "I never thought that you would have such skills, Naomi!"
"In the future, bring some for Kuwako as well. I'll pay you 2,000 yuan a day. What do you think? "
Hayakawa Naomi nodded her head and replied, "Yes, no problem!"
Hayakawa Naomi suddenly thought, 'What's the relationship between Kuwako and the president?'
At this point, Rokuyama Yukita brought three men over and shouted at Pei Zi Yun, "Haha! Director, these three are the newcomers who are willing to join us. "
"Also, Hayakawa, your makeup has improved. You look much prettier now."
Hearing this, Pei Zi Yun nodded his head. In the beginning, he found it strange, but now he understood. In Japanese society, one's image was like a calling card. Hence, regardless of gender, everyone had to manage their image well. It was fine for males, but for females, it was especially serious. In primary school, it was too exaggerated. However, in middle school, one had to learn to put on light makeup. If one did not put on makeup often, they might even be ostracized by the other female students.
Pei Zi Yun had heard of this rumor in the higher education department. There was a senior Teramoto who had a pimple on her face. She did not put on any makeup, and only wore a face mask when she went to school. The moment she took off her face mask, the two female students who she spent most of her time with looked at her in shock. They had a dazed expression on their faces. In the afternoon, rumors started to spread that senior Teramoto had been heartbroken and wanted to commit suicide.
What kind of madness is this? (Note 2)!
Hayakawa Naomi was secretly overjoyed. She touched her face and asked, "Really?"
Pei Zi Yun looked at the newcomers. They were: Akari Tomoyuki, Mutoki Masaichi.
Akari Tomoyuki was a first year student. However, due to personal reasons, he had arrived at school late. At that time, the better clubs had already run out of slots.
Mutoki Tomoyuki was a man of character. He didn't want to waste his time in clubs that he didn't like. Hence, he resisted the urge to join the club.
Just a while ago, Murata Seiichiro was distributing flyers for the Domination of the Nation Club. When they saw it, they felt that it was a good club. Hence, they decided to join. A few days ago, they looked for Yuta Rokuyama to sign up.
Masaichi was a good friend of Murata Seiichiro. He had initially considered joining a foreign language club. However, there was disharmony within the club, and they often suppressed newcomers. This caused a lot of dissatisfaction within the club. Hence, Masaichi decided to leave the club before he could officially join.
In the past few days, Murata Seiichiro had heard the news and had been telling him about the benefits of joining the Domination of the Nation Club. Pei Zi Yun couldn't help but feel tempted.
The three people who were brought here by Yuta Rokuyama bowed to Pei Zi Yun the moment they saw him and said, "Nice to meet you, department head. It's our first time meeting, please take care of me!"
Pei Zi Yun nodded his head in return. At this point, someone brought over protective gear and a bamboo sword. Yuta Rokuyama asked, "What's this for?"
"It's a new activity room that the school has given us."
"Although our main purpose is to travel around the country, we still need to be in good health. Hence, I've decided that this room will be the reference room. The activity room next door will be for you to train your bodies."
"After all, your health is the most important thing."
"So that's how it is." Yuta Rokuyama and the three newcomers were relieved.
"Also, after two more weekends of activities, it will be June. The exams for the semester are not far away. Hence, I've decided to hold the first gathering in the middle of June. I hope that all of you will arrive on time."
"Hai, understood." This was a welfare for them. The three newcomers hurriedly bowed in acknowledgement.
Note 1: Although there is such a custom, according to a Japanese survey, 39% of Japanese females between the ages of 14 to 34 are virgins.
Note 2: Actually, in Japan, makeup is not allowed in school.
