The One Sitting Next To Me Is A Real Japanese! Volumes 1

Helping One Two Things Doesn't Matter

Left by his two friends because of club activities, Eza is currently walking as usual with an uninterested and lazy gaze while carrying his bag towards the back. Every now and then Eza shuts his mouth as he yawns from boredom and looks towards the surroundings, the sight of young High School kids who look busy doing a lot of things plastered clearly in front of his eyes.

Although Eza is also a strong High School guy, his daily activities as a high school boy are just watching anime and playing games while lying in his room. When he thought about it at a glance in his mind, his indifference instantly erased the thought and continued to move on.

Well, when it comes to rethinking that I don't know what to treat myself like and how.

The sense in Eza that has been embedded to take root in making him unable to return to that time. To the times that were supposed to be part of Eza but he did not take. Such regret that made him turn his eyes and continue what he was living at this time. So if he had to remove the roots within his body, he would become very confused with everything.

“Hmm? Isn't that the head of the OSIS? What is he doing?”

While Eza was walking around looking around, he found the back of the head of OSIS standing in the grass of the park. He continued to stand still with both arms around his waist and from Eza's vision, the head of the OSIS was staring at something down. When Eza turned his gaze in the direction he assumed was being seen by OSIS chairman Sylvia, Eza can see one cardboard box that is large enough with many books in it and scattered around it.

As a figure who admits he is lazy, Eza is very rare to pay a lot of attention to people, but the posture of the OSIS chairman makes himself curious what is going on. The people walking around him also just passed the OSIS chairman just like that and Eza decided to approach OSIS chairman Sylvia.

"As a guy, helping a girl in distress is a responsibility to take. Even though I'm not fit to say that." While cursing herself like that in her heart, Eza stepped her foot to be right behind OSIS chairman Sylvia.

“Good afternoon, chairman.”

When she was suddenly accosted by someone, Sylvia immediately turned her body and saw who was calling her. The curious expression as it turned around instantly disappeared changing with a bright smile when it saw Eza's figure clearly plastered in front of him.

“Aah, good afternoon also Eza. Are you alone?”

“Ya, like that about. I was left home alone because my friend took part in extracurricular activities. By the way, is there a problem, brother? Seems like the condition of Sylvia is not okay here.” said Eza while looking at the stack of books in the box.

“You mean about these boxes and books? I intend to move it from many rooms to the OSIS room to be saved.”

“So those are all OSIS files?”

“Yes, more or less like that. Because this school is so big, OSIS tasks are very much to be handled by a few people. If I'm honest, it's like I'm forced to work for a dark company with a small salary.”

“I think with all the advantages that the school gave to OSIS, it is very unfit compared to the small salary word dark company.”

With Sylvia's adult smile not answering Eza's jokes, she thought with a smile it had given a clear answer that Sylvia knew about it and chose to be quiet.

After all, Sister Sylvia is a person who can take advantage of something to the maximum, it would not be strange if she would also make full use of the benefits of being the chairman of OSIS at this academy.

Seeing Sylvia's personality and image as the head of OSIS made Eza think if it was her, then even unfavorable circumstances would make her into a state of “wah! It's not like this 100% profit!” and made himself bathed in a golden light.

But Eza still did not understand why he bothered to bring it alone. Although this academy was a prestigious academy, Eza thought it would not be possible if the head of OSIS also had a secret of his own. The most reasonable answer in Eza's mind right now was that due to the lack of members, Sylvia had to step in.

If I don't remember wrongly, I've seen Brother Sylvia carrying things with her own hands. Very hardworking, yes ....

If it was Eza's personality that grew from the beginning, would it be possible for her to also be able to obtain the same image as Sylvia. Imagining that alone is already impossible to be seen further by Eza how his own future.

“So, is there no one else who can help bring those files? Also, it seems like the people around seem not to care about this all.”

Knowing the meaning behind Eza's words, Sylvia gave a short laugh and straightened her condition to Eza. “Not like that. Most of those who passed us existed long before you were here and already offered help, but I refused.”

“Oh, then Sister Sylvia has been standing here for a long time?”

“True.”

“Then, why didn't sister receive an offer of help from them?”

“Because I told you Friska was coming to help me. But ... Looks like it's been longer than I thought.”

“Then, what if I help you, brother? Sister Sylvia can tell Brother Friska first.”

“Is it okay?”

“Same is no problem. I also thought this was a good time to kill my time. Better than just being at home, right?”

“Then please help, Eza.”

Sylvia smiled gently at Eza as her gratitude. He then gives a message to Friska that he has been helped by Eza and tells Friska not to come to his place now. Before long, Friska replied to a message from Sylvia. He apologized for taking so long to come. Apparently Friska who was working on something in the OSIS room took longer to complete.

Eza, who was informed of the situation by Sylvia, could only be grateful that she was at the right time to be able to help. Although he usually does not want to help something as troublesome as lifting things, for some reason today he wants to do something different than usual that just sit in front of the TV while watching a favorite anime, he is currently in a good mood.

“Only Sister Sylvia and Brother Friska are here. Where are Iroha and Rena?”

Sylvia who just sat down and tidied up her files then answered Eza's question, “Aah, they are also doing another task.”

“Hee~ seems like the work of OSIS is not stop-stop. I'm amazed how OSIS can do it all with a few members.”

“Nothing heavy of it all, Eza. Because we are all here pursuing our own goals, if we do not do those goals will not be achieved. Didn't you?”

“If you say it like that ... It feels reasonable.”

Eza pondered Sylvia's words in his mind. To achieve their respective goals ... He felt something was stirring about it, but it felt close. It was very different from the feelings he had experienced before.

“By the way, what do Rena and Iroha do?” For the sake of distracting her, Eza asked while looking around the room once again.

“Rena went to take care of the other equipment again. For Iroha, he is presiding over a budget meeting between clubs. Come to think of it, is she okay?”

“About budget?”

“Do not worry, this is an annual meeting. Actually—“

According to what Sylvia said, budget meetings are held once every year. During that one year, OSIS will evaluate the budget of the entire club. By existing standards, school-assisted OSIS will assess how the club is running on the budget provided. If the results are good, then OSIS and the school will consider the club getting more budget.

Vice versa, if in one year the club is considered unsatisfactory, the budget and facilities of the club will be reduced and transferred to other clubs. With such a system, the school expects the club to improve its achievements and activities so that students can develop, as well as get a good experience during their joining.

“Actually there is Friska who takes care of the budget meeting ...”

“But Iroha who became the mediator this time?”

“Yes, as you can see and know, OSIS is short on members. Friska was busy with her duties and as treasurer, Iroha could be the leader in the annual meeting. I thought it could be an experience as well, so I entrusted it to him ... But it seems I've been overdone, yes.” After glancing at the clock, Sylvia looked towards the window with a worried look.

“Will he be okay?”

“Hmm? Well, it was just a meeting. The situation may heat up, so I don't think it will reach the stage of their violent protests ... Ah, that reminds me.”

Sylvia said that while shrugging her shoulders, then took something from inside her desk drawer. What he wrote was a polio book.

“Before he kept hold of the book, but it seems he forgot to leave it on my desk after retrieving some required files. If you don't mind, will you deliver it for her?”

Eza felt a little overwhelmed when asked for that help. However, the figure of Iroha who had difficulty with the horde of brats some time ago flashed in her mind. Slowly, an unpleasant feeling spread in his chest.

“... Alright. Then, excuse me.”

“Yes. Careful.”

Eza immediately left Sylvia and Friska who were in the OSIS room and went to where Iroha was. While walking, Eza looked at the title of the book that Yuuki had forgotten.

“Not this ... Very dangerous?”

**

Meanwhile in the OSIS room.

“Is it okay to treat like that? I think he'll be mad if he finds out.”

“Nothing to worry about, everything will be fine. Moreover, I think Eza will be more aware of his goals along with OSIS here.”

“Is it like that?~ I can't see the way will be like that.”

“If not then it's okay. My goal is only one, I think you know it too.”

“Sylvia is indeed evil, ya~ toying your advantage.”

Sylvia just smiled gently while drinking her tea, waiting for the results of what she had made, and reassembled the newly brought files.
