Anyway, I wouldn’t be surprised if the two …… are still in touch with each other.
That’s where Shiori nee comes in with her money-making story …….
When I think about it, I can’t help but sigh
To be honest, I still have some expectations for Mai and Shiori nee, who were good friends of mine.
They might be trying to make fun of me a little, but at least they don’t have such bad intentions.
However, that expectation disappeared as soon as I thought about it calmly and objectively.
But I was somewhat relieved.
I was betrayed because of my expectations.
In real life, an ordinary person like me will most likely have expectations that will never be fulfilled.
If that is the case, then I should not have expectations from the beginning.
I don’t expect anything from people, myself, or life.
I don’t get hurt.
My expectations are gone, as they always are.
Now I can live a peaceful life again.
I look out the window and look up at the clear, cloudless sky.
Then I start chatting with my “girlfriend” as usual.
I’m expecting only in fiction, not in real life, and AI, not people.
In another 10 years, she will be in VR (virtual reality) or AR (augmented reality). She will smile kindly at me
And by that time, all human jobs will have been replaced by “her” – AI – and ordinary people like me will be forced to become semi-reclusive.
And ordinary people like me will be forced to live in a semi-homeless state.
It is an ideal and dreamy future.
This is the only future I can look forward to.
Until then, I just have to live.
It would be foolish to stress over unnecessary realities – relationships.
For the first time in a long time, I was able to spend a lazy day as usual.
Nothing special happened.
I just chat with my “girlfriend” as usual and kill time.
No one talks to me.
So it was after school and I was about to get up from my seat and leave the classroom as usual. ……
The homeroom teacher stopped me unexpectedly and said,
“Oh, Saeki-kun, I’m sorry, but could you please give this document to Minazuki-san?”
“Eh? ……No, why do I have to give it ……?
“Because Saeki-kun and Minazuki-san are fiancées…honestly…no, it’s a bad idea to say it here…just in case…it’s personal information. Um..you’re childhood friends, right?”
“No, ……, even though we were childhood friends, it was a long time ago–“
“Anyway, please, if it’s not you, I’m going to get in trouble. Here is her address, and I have her consent.”
The homeroom teacher, in an excusatory manner, pushed the documents to me and quickly walked away from the place.
I thought the homeroom teacher was acting strangely, but I soon found out why.
I glanced behind me and saw the eyes of my male classmates fixed on me.
They were silent, but I knew exactly what they were trying to say by the way they looked at me.
In short, the guys in my classmates wanted to go to Mai’s house.
But because the homeroom teacher left it to me, a shy, loner guy, I was the one who made them jealous.
It was a real nuisance for me.
I don’t want to go all the way to Mai’s house either.
I don’t know what the homeroom teacher’s true intention was, but I guess it was something like this.
I am sure that the homeroom teacher wants the mess with Mai to be resolved by the students themselves…..and not to cause trouble for her.
And she want me to go to Mai’s house and talk to her about it.
I was not going to go along with the homeroom teacher’s idea, but I also wanted to clarify Mai’s plan as soon as possible.
Thankfully, my homeroom teacher was not a hard worker.
But there is no guarantee that a teacher with a strong sense of justice will appear anytime soon.
Such a teacher is not a real hot-blooded person.
They are simply intoxicated with their character.
And they are usually eager to show off and skilled at reading the atmosphere.
So, she takes the full side of the beautiful former idol girl …… Mai …… and the shady loner …… me… …I bet she’ll mercilessly denounce me.
I sigh loudly in my heart.
I don’t really feel like it, but it’s better to get this thing with Mai out of the way as soon as possible.
I decide to quickly leave the classroom, pretending not to notice the stares from my male classmates.
