Chapter 32: You scared the shit out of me
"Finally!... Finally!... hahahaha, Guan Yu collector figurine, here I come... I look forward to seeing you become one of my other generals."
"Hahahaha, luckily, I didn't make a rash decision."
As I slowly opened my eyes, a sharp pang of pain shot through my head, causing a wave of discomfort to wash over me. It's never pleasant to wake up in the morning with such a sensation. Glancing to the side, I immediately identified the culprit.
"He's being noisier than usual," I grumbled under my breath as I caught sight of Gakuto, who was bouncing up and down with an unusual level of vitality. He clung onto the iron bars eagerly as if he were itching to break free.
'But still, the madness on his face doesn't disappear... and also, what if you don't make a rash decision, aren't you already determined to run away.'
"Good morning, Kiyoshi-dono. I'm sorry if I woke you up early. The problem is that I can't control all this happiness anymore."
Gakuto's gentle smile sent a wave of discomfort through me. He had been a constant nuisance, persistently badgering me to join his escape plan. Despite understanding his motives, I staunchly refused. However, my unease was soon replaced by relief when President Mari delivered the welcome news that the male students were granted a day off and the chance to venture beyond the confines of our school.
"Do you feel comfortable with expressing yourself so loudly? Shingo, Andre, and Joe can hear your words," I hesitated before rising from my bed, opting to perch on the edge of the bed, my legs swinging freely. I couldn't tear my eyes away from Gakuto, his enthusiasm radiating from every pore.
"They won't know we ever planned an escape, all they'll know later is that I was holding the general Guan Yu collector figurine."
'this piece of shit is still trying to drag me down... *sigh... if he didn't get what he wants tomorrow, that would be really funny,' Despite my intense dislike for him, I can't help but be captivated by his unwavering determination. However, I yearn for this ordeal to reach its end, as the longer it persists, the more uncertain I become about the unpredictable antics he may unleash upon me.
A loud thud echoed through the room, causing a sudden disruption in the otherwise tranquil atmosphere.
Shortly thereafter, Meiko arrived, her presence immediately discernible by the distinct sound of her high heels resonating throughout the confines of the prison. The eerie sound of her whip scraping against the iron bars of each cell reverberated, splitting the air with its ear-splitting intensity.
"Wake up, all of you! The pigs are even better than you when it comes to getting up early!" As was her custom, she would promptly unleash her insults upon us, and with each occurrence, a wave of annoyance washed over me. However, I swiftly concealed my true sentiments.
'Now that I think about it, haven't they become too used to all of Meiko's insults,' I had always known them to be on the perverted side, but now I wondered if their sense of pride had also vanished into thin air.
"Kiyoshi, why are you still sitting there? Everyone has already left," I suddenly noticed that Meiko had managed to usher everyone out, leaving me alone. However, I remained calm, even as she stood before my cell, exuding an intimidating presence.
"I'll just take a quick moment to freshen up and wash my face," I casually rose from my bed and made my way over to the sink. As I glanced into the mirror, I couldn't help but notice Meiko's intense gaze fixed upon me. Nevertheless, I reached out and turned on the faucet, allowing the water to flow freely.
As I diligently cleansed my face, my gaze fixed downward. A gentle exhale brushed against my skin. Startled, I lifted my head, only to find Meiko's face mere inches from mine.
"You scared the shit out of me," I exclaimed in surprise. However, Meiko remained unfazed, her expression unwavering. She then spoke, calm yet firm, "I allowed you to give me advice about Mari, but I don't recall you being so impolite in my presence.
'Doesn't this girl realize that I can see her nipples peeking out every now and then?' My focus wavered as I was captivated by her alluring cleavage, yet I managed to maintain my composure and continue my facial cleansing routine.
The water splashed playfully as it cascaded down, creating a delightful symphony of droplets.
In an unexpected turn of events, I gripped the water firmly in both hands. Without hesitation, I delivered a forceful slap to my face, resulting in a cascade of water splashing in every direction. Unfortunately, Meiko, who happened to be standing beside me, bore the brunt of the impact. As a consequence, her face and cleavage were drenched in the wet aftermath.
"You damn bastard, you did that on purpose, didn't you?" As Meiko took a few steps back, her expression transformed into one of seething anger. I could practically sense the impatience emanating from her hand, gripping the whip tightly as if it longed to unleash its wrath upon me.
"I'm sorry, Vice President. I really didn't mean to," I swiftly snatched my clean towel, ready to help Meiko dry off her damp limbs. Perhaps it was the water that chilled our minds, rendering them as frigid as the morning air.
A look of disappointment crossed my face as my hand, which had just grazed the softness of her cleavage, was abruptly halted when Meiko chose to walk away. Reluctantly, I trailed behind her, not wanting to further upset her.
I couldn't help but wonder if she might be the embodiment of the goddess of lust. Her alluring figure seemed perfectly suited for such a role. As I followed behind her, I found myself audibly swallowing, unable to resist the temptation. With each step she took, her voluptuous ass swayed captivatingly.
I came to a profound realization that the throbbing ache in my head, triggered by every encounter with Meiko, was gradually dissipating. I cannot definitively attribute this change to any specific cause, but it seems that the more I allowed myself to view her with a certain sensuality and perceive her as a bitch, the more bearable her presence became in my life.
After what felt like an eternity, we finally escaped the confines of the prison. As was my custom, I inhaled the refreshing morning breeze deeply before joining my companions in the queue. I was taken aback when I laid eyes on Hana this morning. It was unusual to see her there, as typically, only one person keeps an eye on us.
As I caught sight of the blonde girl's radiant smile amidst the palpable tension that hung in the air, a foreboding sensation washed over me. It was as if an impending storm was on the horizon, ready to disrupt the tranquility of the moment. Meiko's face had changed, donning a more solemn expression than ever. To everyone's surprise, a string of unexpected words escaped her lips.
"Attention, everyone! I have an important announcement to make regarding President Mari's decision. Unfortunately, tomorrow's scheduled day off will be canceled, and instead, we will be putting in some extra effort to tackle the accumulation of trash in the schoolyard."
"Arghkkk!... Fuck that bitch! How can she just go around and destroy the plans I have laid out so neatly!" In a moment of madness, Gakuto impulsively lunged himself towards Meiko, his hands poised to grope her breasts. However, Hana swiftly intervened, delivering a powerful knee strike from the side.
"Hehehe, when President Mari asked me to help you monitor them today, I already knew this would happen."
