“Hello, Iriake kun! I have just moved in next door to you.”
My brain freezes for a few seconds.
In front of me is Iyoki-san with a small smile on her face.
She is the idol of the school, but I’m not frozen in time to admire her beauty.
“…… Eh? What did you just say?”
“I’ve just moved in next door! Oh, sorry, I forgot. Here’s a few things.”
She hands me a well-packed box.
“T-Thank you very much.”
That’s all I can say.
Normally, I would have reacted in some way, but this time I couldn’t.
Why?
My head, which had finally calmed down, began to work.
Finally, the words came out from the proper place.
“I-Iyoki san, you moved into the room next to mine?”
“Yes!”
“Is that with your parents or……?”
“No, it’s just me!”
So you live alone, Iyoki-san.
“Even so, it’s quite sudden, isn’t it?”
“That may be true.”
I never imagined that Iyoki-san would be my neighbor.
I had no idea
“But why do you live alone? I know I’m the one who lives alone, but it’s very rare for a high school student to live alone, isn’t it?”
I have honestly never seen anyone else living alone besides me.
“Ahh. That’s …… well, a lot has happened.”
“I-I see! I’m sorry, I’m sorry for asking such an insensitive question.”
What am I doing?
There must be a very good reason for such a thing.
Asking that in a light-hearted manner reminds me of how poor my interpersonal skills really are.
“It’s okay! It’s probably different from the reason you’re imagining, Iriake kun.”
“I-I see.”
Iyoki-san is really kind.
I can’t believe this person is my friend.
“By the way, I’m very happy”
“Is that so?”
“Yes! I’ve been wanting to move here as soon as possible.”
If Iyoki san says so, it seems that she didn’t move here for any negative reasons.
I was relieved and patted down my chest.
“Heee, I see.”
“fufu, I can’t help grinning.”
“You wanted to move out so badly? I don’t know if it’s fair of me to say, but this place is pretty shabby.”
“I don’t care about that. The location is good you know”
“I see, Location huh”
This apartment is not close to the school or the station.
If anything, the location is bad.
“It’s great. It couldn’t be better.”
“I-I see. ……”
Iyoki san’s comment still left me with a sense of discomfort.
I was tilting my head, and she gave a small chuckle.
“You wouldn’t understand, Iriake-kun. Because, Iriake-kun, you are an insensitive person.”
“Am I insensitive? Well, it’s true that I don’t have much experience in socializing, and I’m a slow learner,…….”
“Fufu, that’s what I’m talking about.”
At the point where Iyoki-san’s words are like that, is this the best proof of insensitivity?
“Anyway, from now on, please get along with me as a neighbor as well, okay?”
“Of course. Let’s make it easier for each other.”
“Yes!”
For me, having Iyoki-san move in next door is still a positive thing.
That’s why I had a feeling that a more enjoyable life would start from now on.
“Well, I’m going to go continue unpacking.”
“I understand. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.”
“Thank you very much! See you later.”
Iyoki san gave a small wave and said, “Bye-bye.”
I waved back and slowly closed the door.
Just before the door slammed shut.
Iyoki-san muttered in a voice that no one could hear.
“We’re going to be together from now on, aren’t we?”
♦︎ ♦︎ ♦︎
I crawl my fingers on the wall, put my cheek against the wall, and lean my body against the wall.
The clattering sounds of life.
It’s everything.
Yes, it tells me everything about him.
“Haa, Iriake-kun ♡♡”
From now on, I want to know everything about him.
“Ehehe”
