The Most Beautiful Girl Is Still As Popular As Ever

[I heard the class next door has a research project today?]

[Seriously?! Then Saito-san would be there, wouldn’t she?]

[Seriously, she’s too pretty, I’m too scared to talk to her, but just looking at her is a feast for my eyes]

[That’s right]

They weren’t exactly whispering, so I could hear the conversations of my classmates.

。

Right now, I’m on my way to the library, even though it isn’t after school. The reason is because I have a class called “research study”.

As the name suggests, this is a class where students use the library to research and present their findings, however in the era with smartphones, this method is pretty inefficient.

。

Well, complaining isn’t changing anything, so I moved to the library quietly.

。

As I walked into the library, I noticed it was a little noisy and the people there were talking and walking around, even though the library is usually not very popular.

From what I heard before, another class is also coming for the research study.

。

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable with the different atmosphere, I began to search for books.

I already decided on the topic for my presentation, so I gathered the related bookss and quickly took my seat.

A lot of people have already sat down, so if I don’t hurry, I won’t be able to get a seat.

。

I let out a sigh of relief, and I suddenly remembered the conversation my classmates had.

(Is she here?)

Sneaking a glance of the surroundings, I found a girl sitting at a table diagonally in front of me with a figure that stood out even in the midst of the crowd.

It’s amazing how she attracts the attention of everyone around her even though she’s just reading.

There’s a lot of boys that looked at Saito, who was sitting and reading her book silently.

It took me a moment to look at her, but she happened to look up at that moment and my eyes met hers.

I looked at her from a distance, but our eyes met, and when I awkwardly let my gaze wander, a small smile appeared on her mouth.

[Oh, wait, she smiled?! Hey, didn’t she just smile, that Saito-san?!]

[Sorry, I didn’t see it. But I must have seen it wrong. Saito-san is famous for her harsh and cold attitude. No one has ever seen anything else but a blank expression, so why would she smile here?!]

[It’s true! I swear she smiled!]

The person sitting next to me also saw her smiling face and was telling his friend about it, however his friend snickered and refused to believe.

I guess it’s a given. No one could imagine that she would smile. I was just as surprised when she did that the first time.

Compared to the days before, she became more expressive, so I wonder if she’s favoring me in any way.

I looked at her one more time, still unable to draw a conclusion of what it’s like to be acquainted with the most beautiful girl in school.
