In the first place, you all are smarter than this guy, so how about you think a bit more? This guy has a communication disorder after all

What?

What did you say Yukino?

What is communication disorder?

Ruriko asks Yukino.

It means that someone’s bad at communicating with others. He’s clearly lacking the ability to communicate with ordinary people

Me? Communication disorder?

Uhm, I don’t understand what you mean. Onii-sama and I can have a conversation without a problem Yoshi-kun doesn’t have a communication disorder!

Ruriko and Megu reject.

Well, that’s because the people here are mostly oddballs! He’s got communication disorder when it comes to ordinary people. You can trust that I’m right!

Yukino says full of confidence.

I wonder? Yukino-san, could it be that you just learned of the word and that’s why you want to use it?

Shou-neechan smiles wryly.

That’s not it! Well then, could you explain why do you think he has a communication order then?

Nei presses Yukino for an answer.

You see, when it comes to ordinary men, They do have that mind to serve the girls. Like telling them a funny story to make them laugh. Yup, trying to make the girl smile at least. A man has no worth if they can’t make girls feel that they’re having fun It’s always a lot of fun when I’m together with Onii-sama

Ruriko said.

I mean, in Ruriko’s case, the pleasures of sex have been converted to the word fun.

Well, it’s because you don’t know anyone other than him. I mean, he doesn’t try to entertain women at all. Sure, he doesn’t need to make one-line jokes but, he doesn’t joke at all Yoshi-kun’s always serious after all I mean, he doesn’t even laugh

Yukino looks at my face.

He always shows that serious look. He doesn’t even laugh at school. That’s why everyone’s scared of you

Scared of me?

I’m basically left out of the class so I can look at things objectively

Yukino had no friends in class ever since Shirasaka Sousuke’s incident.

They’re all scared. You’re just a freshman and yet you got engaged with your classmate. If you ended there, then they can smile at it, but the school even approved the two of you living together. And on top of that, there’s the bakery Why is the bakery mentioned? Well, thanks to Megumi’s life, they can understand that you’ve made a decision on what you want to do in the future at age 16. But they don’t get why bakery. Well, they can understand that the school just happened to start their vocational training course and that you just happened to join in, even so, Even so? It’s impossible. They think that you can’t actually make and sell bread

I don’t get what she means.

No, well, Yukino, aren’t you watching me make bread, right?

Yukino comes to the bakery sometimes when skipping classes.

What I’m talking about is not what I think but what the ordinary students think

Yukino said.

Everyone knows that you make the products alone. There’s no one else in the vocational course but you

Well, that’s true.

Then, Megumi and the elder sister over there are the salesladies selling at school. For someone ordinary, it can’t possibly be something edible. After all, they know you since the entrance ceremony. You didn’t look like a man who’d make bread. They know that you didn’t know how to bake bread long ago, but you suddenly started it after the matter with Megumi Yukino’s right, I started learning how to bake bread since the holidays in May. Then, right now, you’re earnestly working at your bakery, right? Your atmosphere looked like you’d suicide if you can’t do it. I mean, a freshman working at a limited course to become a baker and goes to school without going to regular lessons is not possible. You read baking, or shop management, or cost accounting books during breaks, don’t you? Nobody understands why you’re being so desperate in learning about bakery I see. I’ve decided to work at a bakery with Katsuko-nee, but.

I’ve been obsessed with everything about bread.

If you were aiming to play baseball in Koshien or trying to become a professional athlete, racer, shogi player, or even a Go player, then they’d understand. If your goal was to become an Olympic player, or if it was cooking, then the best chef in French cuisine, then they’d know why you were working so hard like Buddha all day long. But you see, the thing you’re working so desperately on is what? A bakery?

Yeah. That’s definitely unpleasant.

But there are like first-class shops even for bakeries. There are even high-class shops introduced in TV and magazines

Shou-neechan said.

But, he’s not making products for that kind of shop!

I aimed to sell bread for the high school students in the cafeteria.

If he wants to become a simple baker then all his hard work just feel disgusting. He’s too desperate. Are you an idiot? Do you want to die?

Yeah, I didn’t think of that.

So that’s how the class and everyone else sees my behavior.

But, they all support Yoshi-kun

Megu said.

Well, there will be supporters. Megumi and this guy have no two-sides personality, they don’t know the reason behind it but, they only feel that he wants to become a baker even if he dies. They’d obviously want to support. But you see, the fundamental question of why is he going that far wanting to become a baker? is still there Yeah, they can’t be clear of doubts. I mean, your setting is that you’re poor, right? Megumi’s house is really poor, and he doesn’t look like he has any money at all

Megu’s classmate from middle school testified on Yamamine house’s bad condition.

As for me, my father disappeared during the entrance ceremony that I didn’t have money.

And now, the setting is that you’re living together near the school thanks to the chairman’s assistance, isn’t it?

Megu and I are supposed to live in the house connected to this mansion via the underground tunnel.

Besides, you called everyone in your class and had a party without me knowing? No, I wanted to invite Yukino too though I don’t care about that. You see, I’ve been listening to the conversation of the girls who went to the party

What were they saying?

It looks fun to see the house of two engaged people living together but looking at the real thing, they really stink in poverty

Haa.

I didn’t see the location with my own eyes, so I don’t know much, but maybe, Megumi’s sense is that bad?

Err.

Well, it’s not the house Yo-chan, and Megu-chan stays in every day after all

Nei said.

There’s hardly anything there but the basic necessities, right? I guess that’s why they see it as a lonely house

Oh, I see.

Right, that house only has a few stuff in it.

No, I think it’s because of me

Megu.

Yukino’s right, I’m just a shabby woman

No, wait.

don’t cry just from that.

Well, why not? That only means you found something to do in the future, haven’t you?

Nagisa smiles at Megu.

You can just learn what to bring in the house little by little. Tastes like that are better developed than just acquired

Nagisa’s flower shop and even her living quarter above are both stylish.

Well, flower shops are a business that sells aesthetic sense.

That house was Megumi-chan’s territory until now, so I didn’t say anything but, if he’s also called shabby by his classmates then that’s a problem Sorry but we’ll barge in We’ll let Megumi-chan decide in the end but, we’ll mind where it matters, and point it out

Nagisa and Katsuko-nee announced.

Yes, please teach me if I make failures

Megu bows to the two, feeling disheartened.

Putting that aside

Katsuko-nee looks at me.

You’re right, he doesn’t laugh at all He’s a quiet and serious boy though
