Chapter 1 — 「A Beautiful Girl Student And A Cute Silver-haired Girl」(Part 1)

「——I'm Charlotte Bennett. Please call me Charlotte if you don't mind.」

 Quite frankly, it was love at first sight.

 An elegant gesture that shows her cuteness.

 Long, straight, shining silver hair.

 A cute smile that exudes her friendliness.

 A voice that is clear and comfortable to listen to.

 Everything was my ideal.

 Perhaps, if anyone, male or female, sees her, they will be robbed of her heart.

 In fact, all her classmates have fallen in love with her.

 I'm sure she'll be surrounded by her classmates in no time at the next break.

 She has that kind of brilliance.

「Thank you from now on」

 She looked around the classroom as if to check everyone's faces, and bowed her head deeply.

 She was staring at Charlotte-san.

「――Hey, Akihito. We are lucky」

 My best friend Akira Saionji, sitting in the back seat, whispered in my ear.

 Akira and I have known each other since elementary school, and we can call them bad friends.

 Akira is a soccer player who is active in the youth, so he has a short hairstyle like a sportsman, and he has a well-equipped face that has experience being scouted as a model.

 He also has excellent communication skills to the point that he can quickly become friends with people he meets for the first time, and he's the kind of guy who'll do anything unreasonable for the sake of something interesting.

 There is no way that such a good-looking guy with excellent communication skills would not be admired by everyone.

Certainly, there must have been many fans at other schools.

 However, Akira has the drawback of stepping on the accelerator too much and being attracted to a girl she likes, and unfortunately he never had a girlfriend.

 I think he's a wasteful guy, honestly, because if you tell him, he'll notice and stop.

 ――Well, even so, I'm lucky...

 I think about the words of my best friend who is in a good mood.

 After the first year's summer vacation, it was certainly fortunate that such a beautiful girl came to study abroad.

 But that too, if I could get close to her--.

 And I'm sure I can't do it.

「Ohhh, yeahh」

 However, without putting into words the negative thoughts that crossed my mind just now, I agreed with Akira.

 I'm sure Akira will attack Charlotte-san after this.

 He is a guy who often fails because he rushes in without thinking about the future, but it can be said that Akira's strong point is his aggressiveness.

「Do you think she has a boyfriend？」

「Well, if you think about it normally, you should. Because you're that cute」

「Hey, hey, let's hope it's not there」

 While asking, Akira tries to take the story to the direction where the boyfriend is not.

 Then I want to tell him not to ask, but I guess he wanted someone who would agree.

 Humans are creatures that want to make friends.

「Then why don't you ask him」

 Judging from her appearance, I can imagine it to some extent, but it's not necessarily correct.

 So no matter how much speculation we make here, it's meaningless, and there's no way to know the answer other than asking the person himself.

 However--

「That's right! Yes Charlotte! Do you have a boyfriend now!?」

 As for me, I meant to ask him privately later, but Akira, who presses the accelerator with all his might when dealing with a girl he's interested in, ends up asking in front of a large crowd.

「Heehh!?」

 Because of that, Charlotte suddenly asked if she had a boyfriend, and her face turned bright red in an instant.

 Then he began to shyly fidget, covering his mouth with both hands and opening his mouth shyly.

「Or is it boyfriend...? No, that's not……？」

 Charlotte answered that while looking slightly up.

 With those words, the classroom became lively in an instant.

 Well, it's mainly boys who are boiling, but thanks to that, Charlotte-san hid her face even more embarrassed.

「Come on, Saionji! You listen to that kind of thing when it's just the two of you！」

 Well, of course, if you ask such a question, the teacher will get angry.

「Or rather, it's been noisy in the home room since a while ago！」

 My homeroom teacher, Miyuki, seemed to have noticed that we were chatting in the homeroom, and started to get angry when I brought that up as well.

 The beauty priority student is a beauty, but she has a short temper and is a manly man.

 It's only here that I'm a little behind because of that.

 It seems that he himself cares about it, so when he hears about this topic, he gets really scared.

「Why am I the only one! Akihito was also talking！」

「Because you are loud and noisy! If you have a complaint, try not to find out like Aoyagi.！」

 I take it back.

 Beauty priority student, it's the best.

「Eh!? Is it okay for a teacher to say that?!?」

「You can't scold what you don't notice! In the first place, it's bad that you asked such a question without knowing the situation! For the time being, I'll give a sermon later, including the daily part！」

「Oh, t-that's right!?」

 With Akira's scream-like voice, the class burst into laughter.

 Akira is really a good character.

The person himself may not be convinced, but the class softens just by having Akira.

 You could say that he is the other end of the mood maker.

「Ah――」

 When I was laughing at Akira, who was still lamenting, I met Charlotte-san's eyes who was laughing with a giggle while her face was red.

 It made me feel uncomfortable and I tried to look away, but Charlotte-san smiled at me earlier than that, and he fell in love with me.

 And she found her body temperature rising just by being smiled at her.

 After a while, Akira gave up, and the exchange between the beauty priority students ended, and Charlotte-san's self-introduction resumed.

「I came to Japan because of my parents, but I love Japan as much as I love my home country, England, so I'm really happy to be here.」

 Charlotte put her right hand over her ear and told me about her feelings for Japan with a cute smile.

 I often hear from foreigners that she likes Japan, and apparently she does too.

 Well, most of my classmates seem to be more distracted by her smile than by her words.

「Ah~ after all, that girl is cute……」

 Akira, who was behind me, had a slovenly grin on his face.

 Well, maybe it can't be helped.

 Charlotte is just so cute.

 After looking at my classmates who were making deredere expressions toward Charlotte-san, I listened to Charlotte-san's words and thought.

 I have other acquaintances of beautiful girls, but this is the first time I have a classmate like Charlotte who is my ideal.

I never thought there was someone who looked just like him.

 It's really big in the world.

 ――While thinking about such things, I turned my gaze to the clear blue sky that I could see from the window of the classroom.
