Kapitel 882: Their Dreams
The student council room fell silent.
After a moment, Ichika gently wrapped her arms around Miku's shoulders, resting her face against her neck, and whispered with a smile.
"Yes, we'll never be separated. This is the best future. I've decided that I'll consider this my dream too!"
Miku pouted slightly, somewhat dissatisfied. "Plagiarism isn't allowed."
"Hehe~ What's the difference? We're sharing the same guy, aren't we~"
"It's the same, and it's still used separately now. We haven't done anything shared yet."
Fumino and Rizu exchanged glances, unable to hold back laughter, and too afraid to interrupt.
Nino rubbed her temples. The conversation was getting weirder, and she quickly intervened. "Sensei is still here, please pay attention!"
Mafuyu stared at Shinichi and decided to ask the next question directly.
"Yotsuba-san, what about you?"
"Me? Becoming a physical education trainer or a physical education teacher!" Yotsuba chuckled, speaking with embarrassment.
"Honestly, I really want to help people like me who have no other talents besides sports, or who want to win games, so they can fulfill their dreams and find meaning in life..."
She was halfway through when she realized everyone except Shinichi was looking at her with gentle eyes, as if they were looking at a cherished pet.
Panicking, she decided to lower her bunny ear ribbon so others wouldn't see her blushing face.
"Dreams should be exaggerated! Even though it's likely we won't be able to do it, if you don't try, how can you know the outcome..."
"...What you're saying is generally true, but don't underestimate yourself." Mafuyu put on a complicated expression, but relief could be seen in her eyes.
"Yotsuba-san, if you can't do it, then not many people in this world can. You have talent and work hard. Success is only a matter of time."
After she finished speaking, others began to cheer her on.
"Yotsuba, believe in yourself, you can do it!"
"I really don't understand if you're confident or not. Cheer up, you're way better than us."
"As a physical education teacher, there will be fewer subjects to be tested. It's okay. As long as it's not about grades, nothing can confuse Yotsuba~"
In the end, Yotsuba raised her blushing face and nodded to them while smiling foolishly. "Ehehe~ Thank you, thank you for your support..."
Shinichi complained, "Why does it feel like being elected as a Member of Parliament?"
"What about you?" Mafuyu shifted her gaze, her expression serious again, and she glanced at him while picking up her tea cup.
"Have you decided what you want to do in the future?"
"Of course, I've planned everything for the future. Starting a family and starting a business are all under consideration. Trust me." Shinichi laughed.
"Really?" Without thinking much about his words, Mafuyu wasn't interested in when he would "get married." so she only asked about the "career path" part.
"You're currently working in a financial company, right? What kind of industry do you want to pursue in the future?"
"No, I plan to start my own business. Although I'll delve into finance, the main direction of development is in new media and creative investment. I'm studying this knowledge. The ultimate goal is to become a growing chaebol."
Shinichi smiled satisfied, his gaze confident that he would win, so Mafuyu sighed helplessly.
"...I really don't know where you get your confidence from. But if it's you, this shouldn't be just empty talk, right?"
"Thank you for your understanding." Shinichi's smile on his lips deepened.
Afraid he might misunderstand something, Mafuyu reminded again, "Being ambitious is good, but it's best to be humble and not have overly high goals."
"Of course, to achieve dreams close to fantasies, you can't just rely on empty words... So, I understand how to do it."
Shinichi nodded earnestly, looking at Itsuki beside him, and made a joke.
"By the way, if I start my own company in the future, Itsuki, would you like to be my secretary?"
"...Eh?"
Itsuki, who was already prepared next to him and just waiting for Mafuyu to ask, officially informed everyone about her dream, freezing in place.
She reacted quickly, pointing at herself, and opening her mouth.
"Secretary...?"
Shinichi nodded, "Yes, don't you want to?"
Itsuki quickly shook her head, slightly lowering her eyes, and forcing a somewhat strained smile.
"No, it's not that I don't want to... It's similar to what I'm doing now. Helping Asada-kun feels enjoyable."
As she said this, there wasn't much joy in she tone, but rather confusion about what to do.
"I was just kidding, don't mind." Shinichi sensed something was off, but he didn't ask further.
Mafuyu then opened her mouth and said to Itsuki:
"Itsuki-san, don't listen to Asada-san's nonsense. Only you have the right to decide what you want to do in the future."
"Yes, I know." Like a good student, Itsuki nodded gently, but she movement wasn't too natural.
She glanced at Mafuyu's open mouth again. The question she had been anticipating to be asked to her, but now she had an idea to escape.
"What about you, Itsuki-san..."
The words fell slowly, and her palms clenched quietly as Itsuki racked her brain, but still couldn't think of how to answer Mafuyu.
Suddenly, her phone rang, and Mafuyu quickly answered it.
"Hello? It's me... Okay, I'll be there now."
After chatting for just a few words, the call ended neatly as Mafuyu looked at everyone and commanded:
"I have to go to a meeting next. You should pay attention to the time and not come home late."
"Yes~"
Her eyes lingered on Itsuki for a few seconds before Mafuyu left the student council room.
Once the teacher left, everyone didn't continue discussing the topic. They ate cake, drank tea, chatted casually, and after a sufficient break, they continued to work on the remaining official tasks.
As Shinichi sat back at his desk, he also said to Itsuki following him:
"Don't worry about what I just said. Don't you want to become a teacher like Kirisu-sensei? Just work hard towards that. If you need help, let me know."
Itsuki looked a bit helpless and replied with a chuckle, "I don't care. My dream is to become a teacher, and I know you asking me to be your secretary was just a joke."
"The expression just now..." Shinichi frowned.
Itsuki was surprised and turned her body towards him.
Her slightly drooping head and shoulders made her look a bit more vulnerable.
"I never doubted my dream of becoming a teacher... But suddenly, I don't know what to choose..."
Itsuki muttered softly, and before she finished speaking, she took off in a hurry.
"Sorry, I have to submit some official documents first!"
Shinichi watched her from behind and quickly left the student council room.
