(Four weeks later)
We're well prepared for the school festival
Since nobody else from the theatre club chose to help with the show's acting, we had to size down on the cast and have people outside of the club
And since we can't have people outside of the school to participate in this, Emu is out of the question
In the end, we ended up having a cast of four
Me, Rui, Nene, and Mizuki, a friend of Rui's
Well, technically it's five
Rui has a robot version of Nene, named Nenerobo
Ever since Nene overcame her stage fright, Rui created an AI module for Nenerobo so she can be in the shows without needing someone to control her
The show's story is about a phantom thief and his friends taking treasures while trying to fight off a villain who wants to control time (Yes it's a reference)
After the show, I can hear people gossiping
Audience A
That show was amazing!
Audience B
As expected of Tenma!
All of it are surrounding me, not of anyone else in the cast
/A few days later/
Classmate
Tsukasa! Let's eat lunch together!
"I'll pass"
Classmate
Tsukasa, you've been acting off ever since the school festival, are you okay?
"I'm fine"
Classmate
If there's something troubling you, you can tell me!
"Do people like the show only because I'm there?"
Classmate
What do you mean?
"After the show, I only heard positive comments on the show, but it's all about me, none of them are about the other people in the cast"
Classmate
But they're weirdos, you know that!
Nobody would like them anyways!
"You're wrong!"
"As the lead actor of many shows in the theatre club, I know well that if all the attention goes to one specific character, there would be no point in the show!"
I stormed out of the classroom in a fit of rage
And Rui was right outside of my classroom
Rui
Tsukasa-kun...
He started crying
Rui
Thank you for defending me!
I gave him a hug
"It's fine"
"You're my friend afterall, I care about all of my friends"
