I've placed a series of figurative stories setting in afictitiousschool. The scene of the stories has been mainly threefictitiousclasses. But excuse me for the hindrance. Today, the new storyaftera while absence. It's almost impossible to express all the characters with pronouns, so I'm calling them withfictitiousnames.
Kou
(boy)
, [β] Jin
(boy)
, and [γ] Riku
(boy)
. But all of them were replaced.
[α]
Chie
(girl)
and Nao
(boy)
: The leader's term had expired, and Shu
(boy) became a new leader. But the dominance of the bully groups hasn't changed. Shu and a few of bully group members are trying to pull the wires to turn the classmates' dissatisfaction not to the new leader, but to other classes. For example, by spreading distorted slander. A new problem has cropped up: Several students in this class smoke, and bring smelly fast food. (Of course, under-age smoking is illegal)
So a few classmate with weak constitution has been sick due to air pollution in the classroom. What makes matters worse: Maybe due to the location of classrooms -the polluted air with tobacco smoke from this classroom sometimes flows into Jin's classroom...
[β]In Jin's class: One of the weakest girls in this class Sei
has been bullied by Chie and Nao's group. Due to weak attitude of the leader Jin at this case, his capability as a leader was questioned. After all, Jin ended up being removed, and Nori
(boy)
was elected the new leader. But Nori's capability is unknown so far. Surely, once when Sei was assaulted by the bully group, Nori and a few friends saved her. But there was a rumor that Nori used this case to improve his image. At the new class leader election, about forty percent of classmates abstained from voting -maybe somehow they weren't interested in this election
. Anyway... except for victims like Sei, there seems to be three kinds of people in this class: ・People who try to avoid getting involved with problem related with neighboring classes and this class by concentrating on studies for themselves and what they want to do (-Me? If I were the one who attended this fictitious school as a student, I would be in this class and I think I would be in this group.)
・People who wonder how to get along with other adversarial classes -including fans of Atsu
in the adversarial neighboring class, one of the most good-looking boys in this school ・People who enjoy a sense of unity by slandering other adversarial classes and bullying other classmates who wish to be friends with neighboring adversarial classmates.
[γ]In Riku's class, in charge of Mr.Koda
(a male teacher)
who force their students excessive competition for his reputation: Not all the students in this class can endure the atmosphere in this class, and between the previous and this story, there were more than one cases of attempted suicide in this class -isn't it abnormal?
The leader's term of Riku had expired, and Kumi
(girl)
became a new leader. To tell the truth, after Riku's soccer team offended a sportsmanship rule at the Ball-game festival
, Riku got a strong warning. This was one of the reasons his reputation as a leader dropped in this class. -The new leader is not Atsu? No, he didn't stand for nor get nominated. Actually, he is one of a few students in this class who wish to get along well with Nori's class, and not all the classmates agree with this idea. Except for this, Atsu is not only good-looking but also has a good personality, so he is trusted. This class and Nori's class[β] have been confronting -there was a decent reason. Unfortunately, the change of leaders doesn't mean rebuilding of their friendship. On the contrary their sense of rivalry against other classes and trumped-up mudslinging are as ever.
[δ]There is another class joining in this story: A class that have members of student council Masa
and Fumi
and other students who have powerful position in this fictitious school. -But as for this class, wait until the next story.
Now, is there somebody who has already guessed what I express with figurative stories of this fictitious school? Just see the character names well-but there is a problem; I cannot find Japanese first names starting with "P", and substitute names starting with "H". At first, the scene was only in Kou's class -now Shu's class
[α], but excuse me for more and more complicated stories with more and more people. Of course, I simplify the situation so that I can translate into stories of a school. Today, I'd just like to conclude:
I don't think they should cut relations with each other; this sounds more impractical than rebuilding friendship. But I'm afraid thatas long as such situationgoes on, their relationship itself can end up in nothing but waste of time and energy.
