That day, when I got home from school, I started taking off my black shoes before I even closed the door. I shouted: "Mom~Mom~ you know what?"
Mom had her smile on her face as usual, " How would I know? You haven't said anything yet! Why so excited?"
I ignored my mother and shouted to myself, "Mom, you know what? I was actually elected president of the student council!"
"Is this even possible! there must be a mistake! But this is really happening! I thought that many were vying for the election! 」
"Yet, this year, no one stood out for the election. Not even one senior signed up for this, and my classmates nominated me, then I was inexplicably elected! Even the teacher had to stand up for me, as the teacher said that the students must vote for me, otherwise there will be no student union this year!
“This is such an anecdote! Never had this happened for the past 200 years!"
When my mother heard about this, she sighed, "How has our small city became this? Is this the legendary Red Terror?"
Oh! So it is, I am not a fool and I got what she means as soon as I hear her.
No wonder none of the seniors self nominated! But I don't care! Fuck these reds and whites!
I don't have to hide my excitement in front of my mother! I am so happy to be the president of the student council!
The student council president of a century-old famous school! A glorious page.
Can’t resonate with my classmates. Why so scared?
