“So, how are things?”
“Mostly same as usual, but there is something that happened recently.”
“Hoh? Now that’s rare, usually you would just tell me it’s normal and leave”
“I…might have gained back some of the lost emotions.”
“Heh?”
“W-Wait-t-t. You gained back some emotions?”
Kenji-Sensei seems genuinely shocked at my statement, his words started to fumble as he tried to speak.
“That’s great news! I-I-I mean, that is really great!”
“But it is only a small fraction.”
“Do you know what caused this change? What were the emotions that you gained back? When did this happen?”
I was bombarded with a barrage of questions by Kenji-Sensei. Even someone like me that couldn’t feel anything could see Kenji-Sensei was genuinely happy for me and was really curious to find out why, all while having that child-like bright smile on his face.
“I recently, felt…surprised and excited.”
“Heh…Tell me more. What could have caused it?”
“I met the transfer student.”
“Transfer student?”
“Yeah. She has long scarlet hair tied up in a ponytail as well as blazing crimson eyes.”
“She? Is she pretty?”
“I guess you could say that, she seems popular despite just arriving here.”
“Heh…I see, I see.”
“Why are you making that face?”
“Hm? What face?”
“That. That exact face that is grinning from side to side.”
“Ahaha. It’s nothing. So, what’s this particular girl’s name?”
“Honoka. She turned out to be my neighbour.”
“Last name?”
“Yeah. Her first name is Miyano.”
“You seem fairly close to her”
“Do I? I guess we are in the same club after all.”
“Same club?!” Y-Y-You are in a club?”
Kenji-Sensei seemed more surprised at the fact that I was in a club than anything else.
“Yeah. I started the club and she joined it along with another girl.”
“You…created the club?”
“Yeah. It’s called the Experience club”
“Ah. That could be taken in a lot of different ways.”
“I guess you could say that.”
“But really huh. A club. And with two girls no less.”
“So, tell me. What’s the deal with you and this Honoka girl?”
Kenji-sensei nudged me with his elbow while asking me with a voice that sounded as if he were making fun of me.
“There’s nothing.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. There is nothing going on. We just go to school together and back considering we are neighbours and in the same club.”
“Together eh. That sounds fishy. Did you guys go on a date yet?”
“No. We aren’t in that kind of relationship, we just had dinner at the nearby Big Waltz.”
“Dinner huh. The two of you, a boy and girl, having dinner together after school. Isn’t that a date?”
“Huh? What kind of logic is that. We are just friends that’s all.”
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
“Really.”
“I’m not going to reply to that anymore.”
“Ahaha. Sorry, let me get back to topic. So, you gained back the emotion of surprised and excited. You realised this when you met this Honoka girl.”
“That’s about right.”
“Let me guess. Is this Honoka girl a cheerful and outgoing girl.”
“…How did you know?”
“Aha. I hit the mark?”
True Honoka can be considered to be outgoing as she as a very cheerful personality.
“Maybe, just maybe…”
“What’s wrong?”
“You could have gained back those emotions due to the influence of being around Honoka.”
“Huh?”
“I’m being serious, this encounter you had with Honoka who has a very outgoing personality, may have just drawn out your locked emotions form within you.”
“That is…”
“That would mean that by being around her, you gained back these lost emotions.”
“That would mean that if you were to hang out with more people with various personalities such as these, you could just regain what was once lost.”
Hearing what Kenii-Sensei said, I began wondering. Could some part in me thought the same when I wanted to make the club? Meeting Honoka was a complete coincidence but that changed something in me. The Experience Club. I could make it a club with collection of various people with differing personalities, all stashed into one club and enjoying different activities together.
“I think you are on the right track here Yuusuke.”
“You mean about the club?”
“Yea. You should keep this up and try to interact with more people. Maybe the reason you didn’t gain back your emotions till now was due to shutting your heart off from the world.”
“…”
“Anyways, this seems like good progress. I have to go now but do keep me updated on any news changing.”
“I understand.”
“Well, good luck with club.”
Seeing Kenji- Sensei picked up his belongings and begin walking away, I bowed and said goodbye.
“Oh, one more thing.”
“What is it?”
“Keep me updated on your relationship with Honoka too.”
Kenji-Sensei snickered as he gave off a smug face filled with mischief when he said that.
“Buzz off.”
“Ahaha. I mean it!”

“Kanjouu Yuusuke, Honoka Miyano, Honshou Kagura and Advisor Mitsuki Honda. Alright, everything seems to be in order. I as the head of all clubs, Kouda Kentarou approve your request for your club.”
“Well, with that said. Nice to meet you, Kanjouu-kun, Honoka-san, Honshou-san.”
“M-M-Mitsuki-Sensei s-s-said my n-n-n-name!”
“Nice to meet you too teach!”
“The same to you.”
Mitsuki Sensei and the rest of us were gathered in front of Kouda-Sensei, the new head of the clubs early in the morning to officiate the club.
“Honda. The club room assigned to your club would be…the hidden sleep room of yours.”
“Hm? What are you talking about?”
“I’m talking about the hidden room of the club building that you use to sleep in between lessons.”
“Oh…that room…”
“Here are the keys. You are in charge now.”
“Roger that Kouda-Senpai.”
It was a little surprising to see Kouda-Sensei scolding Mitsuki-Sensei as well as finding out Mitsuki-Sensei has a hidden room that he uses to sleep.
“Well, you kids are lucky. The secret room of mine has all that we need. 2 Couches, chairs, snacks and tables.”
“Just where did you find the furniture and time to make that place Mitsuki-Sensei?”
“That is a secret.”
“Now get back to class and we will meet there after school.”
As the three of us left for each of our classes, I could see Mitsuki-Sensei slowly heading towards the club building. He must be getting ready to hide some stuff or sleep till his lessons.
After school, I began to make my way to the club building, while walking there, I could see Honoka clinging onto Honshou’s arms as they walked towards the building. Honshou made a face that looks as if she were annoyed at Honoka. Honoka was smiling and talking to Honshou while they walked. They sure got close together fast. Honoka then turned her head and saw me.
“Hey Yuu!”
As she shouted at me, Honshou turned around.
“Tch. More pest.”
“Nice to meet you too Honshou-San.”
“I’m not here to make friends with you. I’m here for Mitsuki-Sensei.”
“Aha. Kagura sure only talks about Mitsuki-Sensei.”
Kagura. They are already on first-name basis. Girls sure are powerful at making friends.
We found ourselves outside the club room in a matter of minutes. We could see the newly put sign ‘Keiken-bu (Experience club)’ hanged outside the door. I knocked slightly on the door before we opened it.
As we walked into the room. Curtains by the windows, a small fridge, A large couch in the middle, tables with utensils and even a microwave and multiple chairs.
“This…is our club room?”
“Hoho. It sure is fancy. Are all clubrooms like that here?”
“No, this is way too nice for a clubroom, did we get the right room?”
“We got it right alright. A-after all, M-M-Mitsuki-Sensei is asleep right there.”
Honshou seemed fairly excited and breathing a bit heavily while staring at Mitsuki-Sensei, who was dead asleep right on the couch with a book covering his face.
“A-A-A picture… I have to take one.”
“Kagura, that’s too much.”
“Miyano take the book off.”
“Huh? But.”
“TAKE IT OFF.”
Hearing Honshou’s excitement. Honoka reluctantly shrugged her head and lifted the book off Mitsuki-Sensei’s face. As Honshou slowly walked towards Mitsuki-Sensei with a camera in her hand…A camera? Where did she pull that out of? Doraxmxn?
“Click!”
As her camera shutter fired off. Mitsuki-Sensei slowly opened his eyes.
“Oh, you guys are here…”
“Afternoon Mitsuki-Sensei!”
“What is this room?”
I began to ask Mitsuki-Sensei while ogling the room with its fancy setup.
“This…is my hidden paradise in school, and it is now the KeikenBu’s clubroom.”
“How did you manage to get a whole fridge and microwave in here?”
“Sensei’s sources and lips are sealed.”
“Oh, but the room might get some vistis from Kurenai-Sensei and Masaki-Sensei sometimes.”
“What do you mean?”
“They use this room to cool off as it comes with air-conditioning and a large couch.”
“Air-c-c-conditioning? Just how well equipped is this room.”
Looking around, some of the stuff here isn’t even found in the teacher’s lounge. It’s amazing how Mitsuki-Sensei managed to get all the stuff here. It was fancy enough to warrant visits from the strict teachers like Kurenai-Sensei and Masaoni.
“Now, lets begin our club activities.”
Seeing Mitsuki-Sensei sit upright and began talking seriously really made him seem more mysterious due to all the things he managed to do to this room. His serious mood doesn’t match his bedhair right after waking up.
“C-C-Cute…”
Honshou was sneakily trying to take photos of Mitsuki-Sensei’s bedhair. Seeing Honoka, Honshou and Mitsuki-Sensei gathering with me in this room really made me realise.
“Our club activities is officially going to begin.”
