Shizuka Otonashi || Agriculture Club || May 4 MON: After School
As Shizuka lifted her head from the bow and her hazel eyes lit up in delight at her acceptance, a hand rested atop her head and gave a casual pat. The nervous student jumped slightly in reaction to the gesture, embarrassed from the physical contact despite how casual it was meant to be for the upperclassman.
"I-I-It's alright, no harm done. Bu-But I'm truly grateful for your acceptance, thank you Harvester-senpai!" She bowed once more with a brighter, soft tone but suddenly gasped upon having Kotori's name mentioned to see the other girl in a close proximity to the two. How could she have missed spotting her on her way in? The question on whether to keep her long bangs came to her mind once more before she apologetically bowed in a panicky voice,
"O-Oh goodness, I honestly hadn't known you were there, Shirohane-sa-- senpai, pa-pardon me for my discourtesy. Um, I'm Otonashi, Shizuka from class 1-1. It's nice to see you again." A small smile found its way upon her lips after the bow towards the bespectacled girl.
While the raven haired student tilted her head in curiosity as to what Matt meant by '
hopefully this one won’t suddenly leave', she continued to obediently pay attention to the club president as he revealed the plans he had for the club. Once his ambition part of the speech ended with a cough, Shizuka lightly clapped her hands together at the plan with excitement at her first experience of club activity. These sort of things might not have mattered to an ordinary student but the shy maiden appreciated the little things she could do with classmates and friends, due to her timid nature being in the way to suggest or invite people to have activities together with her. Since she was fairly new and had almost to none knowledge of agriculture, she wondered how they were to start cultivating the piece of land they were given.
Shizuka was lost in thought before the upperclassman spoke up again, this time inquiring from the two girls what sort of club activities they preferred to do. As the question was passed onto herself from Kotori, she paused for a moment while lifting her gaze up in a thoughtful gesture to think before parting her lips to reply in a similarly unsure tone like the other member.
"Umm... I agree with Shirohane-senpai, the three options seem appropriate for the club. We-Well... for myself, I'm quite excited to grow different plants and flowers with our own hands since I hadn't the chance to do so in the past." She ended in a shy manner, flashed a slight smile with a faint blush upon her cheeks while hoping her newbie opinion didn't disappoint them in any way.
