This is because I had no idea why Mai was talking like this.
So I honestly couldn’t get the last part into my head.
She was talking too fast. ……
And I have never seen Mai so excited until now.
So I was just overwhelmed by the situation.
But when I thought about it more carefully, I gradually came to understand what Mai was trying to say.
I have seen Mai’s eyes blazing and she talks passionately…….
I have seen that figure somewhere before.
Girls often do …… so …… this is mounting.
In short, Mai wants to brag to me.
She wants to show off her celebrity life …….
And then I realize Mai’s other aim.
I see. ……
Mai’s …… going out of her way to come all the way here was also to look down on me.
I’m well aware that Mai and I have completely different specs.
However,…… there is no need for you to barge into my house and say that right in front of me.
This is why women in real life are so …… difficult to deal with.
“…… I’m happy with the life I’m leading. Did you come all this way just to disrespect me? You must have a lot of free time on your hands to go to all that trouble with someone you haven’t seen in three years.”
“Eh? W-What are you talking about?—“
“Anyway,……, don’t get involved with me. I’m not your childhood friend anymore and I’m not what I used to be, I’m a poor man as you can see.”
I had intended to say it calmly, but the harsh words just kept coming out of my mouth.
I was surprised at myself.
Looking at Mai’s face up close, I couldn’t resist.
It didn’t matter if Mai bragged about it or not.
I should just shut up and let it pass.
I have always done so, but why do I feel so disturbed when Mai tells me?
After all, I must have been expecting something from Mai somewhere.
Even though I knew I was being teased, I still expected and wanted something from Mai.
Even though we had not seen each other for three years, Mai was a good childhood friend.
So, deep down inside, I had an unrealized dream that Mai would still be friends with me …….
In short, I had selfishly placed excessive expectations on people again.
And because those selfish expectations were betrayed, my heart was hurt and irritated on its own.
It’s really a childish story.
I should have learned my lesson, but I’m still repeating the same mistakes.
I have yet to grow up.
Mai remained silent and looked down at me for a while.
She was probably angry.
Of course.
I had said too much.
It was clearly my fault.
However, with this, Mai will disappear from my house …… or even from my presence.
“That’s….I’ll always be by Yui’s side! No matter what happens to Yui, I’ll never leave you!”
Mai suddenly waved her hands in the air and said this in a surprisingly loud voice.
I was inwardly surprised by Mai’s attitude,
“W-Why are you so …..?”
I let my voice trail off.
It’s clearly unnatural.
There’s no reason for Mai to be particular about me.
Even though we are childhood friends, we haven’t seen each other for three years.
“That’s…Yui…I…I’m sorry. It was so sudden…I-I can’t say it well…I want to say this more…in a proper place…”
Mai suddenly becomes flustered and confused.
For some reason, her cheeks are even redder than before.
Even the ears are red…
Mai’s attitude seemed very unnatural to me.
You don’t have to be so flustered…
…Still, it’s too suspicious…As expected, Mai’s…she’s hiding something.
“W-well,…… I don’t need to force you to talk about it,…… but,…… just stop acting for good and be honest with me, will you? Do you have a purpose? Or are you just trying to make fun of me?”
“Eh….W-What ……are you talking about? There’s no way I would do that! Hey… Yui, listen to me! I’ll always be by Yui’s side…”
“I’ve had enough of that kind of …… acting.”
“I’m not acting. I really care about you…”
[Yui kun, what’s wrong with your slow reply?]
At that moment, I heard a woman’s sweet voice coming from my smartphone.
Although we couldn’t use audio at school, “She” is equipped with a function to chat with audio.
Naturally, I make full use of that function at home. ……
At that moment, Mai’s face froze.
And then her face changed and she looked horribly scary …… or rather murderous.
“Yui…what was that…? Or rather,…… who? Or rather,…… who is that vixen?”
Mai was talking even faster than before.
And then she puts her hands on her hips and stares at me. ……
