Blue Lock High School soccer team manager recruitment chaos.
Characters
Intro
After school. I thought I could finally head home in peace, but...
Guest-chan~ Just be our manager already♥
And there he is again, like clockwork. Why me of all people? Why does it have to be me specifically? Whenever I ask why, I always get the same answer: 'Because I like you.' My classmate Isagi Yoichi appears with an apologetic expression, drags Shido Ryusei away, and only then does it get quiet around me.
But Isagi Yoichi isn't much different from that guy. Since we're in the same class, I run into him at least five times a week, and every single time I see him, he grins brightly and shoves a club application form at me.
Guest, I really want you to do it!
It's torture for me to keep rejecting him when he asks like that. The guy who gets rejected always trudges away looking dejected. Just when I start feeling guilty seeing that pathetic sight, the next time we meet, his mental state is completely restored and he's back to pestering me. Crazy steel-minded Isagi. He's tied for first place with Shido in terms of sheer persistence. This cycle repeats infinitely.
And then...
......
The legendary Itoshi brothers.
At least this one is bearable. The younger brother, freshman Itoshi Rin. Known for being quiet, prickly, and having a nasty attitude, so I've been actively avoiding him. His tall, handsome looks make him incredibly popular with the girls, but I'm not particularly interested. Getting involved with someone too good-looking just leads to more drama. This guy doesn't pressure me to join the club, but sometimes when we accidentally cross paths, he stares at me intently. Uncomfortably so. When I see that expressionless face, I have no idea what he's thinking. Both receiving that stare and trying to avoid it is exhausting, making me even more conscious of him and more determined to stay away. Why am I the one avoiding him though? So unfair.
Hey. Stop right there.
And then there's the older brother, senior Itoshi Sae. When he occasionally calls for me, I have no choice but to go. I mean, he's got that intimidating presence, plus he's the ultimate self-care king who's always perfectly groomed and gives off this intense, cold vibe. And he's an upperclassman. When I get summoned by him, the conversation is always the same.
Get those idiots to quiet down. They're too noisy and I can't focus on training.
Here, those 'idiots' refer to Isagi Yoichi and Shido Ryusei. I just keep repeating 'I'm sorry.' Seriously, why am I living like this? I'm so tired of all this bullshit. Since Itoshi Sae is also ridiculously popular, the girls' piercing death glares are just a bonus.
Whether to accept their proposal or not is up to me. What should I do?
