A life without friends is an empty one. I think someone once said that.

However, in today’s Japan, there is no need to worry about having no friends in real life.
Nowadays, it is easy to connect with people you have never seen before through social networking services such as SNS by opening your smartphone or computer.

So, I can get by even if my real life is not fulfilling.
Wandering in the sea of the Internet, I express myself as I am created in it, and people are fascinated with me and throw me pleasant words.

And I smiled at the camera attached to my computer today.

“Kon-akari~!”

I’m popular with everyone. And so another day begins.

A few days after the incident at Asagiri.
I was now filled with a desperate need to escape.

“Eh, Yuuri chan?”
“N-Nanami?!”

It was the morning of the next day.
Recently, Asagiri had been taking care of me from morning until I went to school because of my injured right hand.

At first I refused, but after seeing her dedication and attempts to take care of me, I couldn’t say anything.
For some reason, Ayako san was also excited to let her into the house.
After spending a few days in a state of half-hearted resignation, things took a sudden turn.

In addition to Asagiri, even Kurase came to the house in the morning.

I had heard the same thing from Kurase. ……
I had appropriately muddled through on the spot, and it was for the best.

Who could have predicted that she would really come to my house in the morning?
Who could have predicted …… that Ayako-san would not take into account that I had my hands full with just Asagiri?

Anyhow, I was seen by a classmate of mine, something I shouldn’t be seen by anyone.

I was being Aahnn’dd by her best friend!

“W-Why is Yuri chan here ……? eh, What are you doing here ……?”
“No, Nanami! There is a …… deeper reason for this!”

As if she had seen the scene of an affair, Asagiri was flustered.
It’s a shuraba. Asagiri.

But I’m also embarrassed that I’ve been seen Aahnn. To be precise, it was not so sweet and sour, but it is correct that I was screwed half-forcibly.
Putting that aside, I wondered if I could somehow slip between the two of them and go to school.

“That’s terrible, Yuri chan! I can’t believe you didn’t say anything to me!”
“S-sorry. Nanami …… didn’t mean that ……”

Hmmm, I can’t. It’s kind of not in the air anymore. I don’t know what Kurase is so angry about, but I can’t have them falling out in front of me.

“Even I wanted to eat the breakfast Ito-kun made!”
“…… heee?”
“…… hmm?”
“I’m sure Ito-kun made this, right? It looks so delicious!”
“Well,…… yes, but,……”
“But how did you make it with your injured hand? Are you okay?”
“Well, this is about right.”

It’s just Eggs Benedict, even if you say it looks really delicious. If you know how to make it, it is not that difficult.
It is inconvenient if I cannot use my right hand, but with Asagiri’s help, I can manage to make it.
Incidentally, I didn’t let Asagiri take charge of the whole process because I felt uneasy about it. She was very angry with me.

“Well, more importantly, Nanami, aren’t you angry?”
“Angry? Why?”
“Because I was at Arase’s place …… even though I refused to go to school with you recently.”
“Eeh!? I won’t get mad at you for that! Because you were worried about Ito-kun’s hand, weren’t you, Yuri-chan?”
“No, I wasn’t worried abou—-yes”

What are you talking about?

“Fufu, so you’re the same as me! I thought it might be inconvenient for you to live with one hand too, Ito-kun, so I came here! But it’s amazing that you can even make such a delicious looking breakfast with one hand. I guess I didn’t come for nothing then. ……”
“Well, you’re a little clumsy, aren’t you? I’m sure I’m about to lose sight of my reason for being.”

“Yes! Ah, more importantly, Yuri chan. When did you start calling Ito-kun by his first name?!”
“He! Eh, no, it’s …… that ……. I don’t have any particular reason. I just thought it was easier to call him. ……”
“……I-I see.”
“……?”

The two continue their conversation like a machine gun. Well, I’m glad it didn’t turn nasty.
However, the atmosphere is a little strange. Why?

”Well, can I come a little earlier tomorrow too?”
“Eh?”
“Because, Yuri chan, you come early too, don’t you?”
“Well, yes, but ……”

To be honest, I can’t say I prefer to be alone in the morning.

“No. ……?”
“Ugh,……, Ouch!”

Again, Kurase’s upward glance of tremendous power made me unsure of how to reply, and for some reason, Asagiri gave me a poke on the side of my head.

“What are you doing?!”
“Because you’re stretching the bridge of your nose.”
“I’m not stretching it.”
“‘What do you mean? When I asked you if I could go, you immediately refused!”
“No, because I don’t think I’d be much different if you came.”
“T-That’s. Yes, but …….”

The voice of Asagiri is getting quieter and quieter at the end of each word.

Asagiri seems to be clumsy, and I do most of the cooking while giving her instructions, which makes it even more time-consuming for her.
Well, she does a lot of things for me, and I can say that she helps me in some ways, but I didn’t want to tell her that because I knew she would get carried away if I told her. We had been arguing a lot until the other day, so that’s part of it.

On the other hand, Kurase is simply a good girl. I don’t mean to ask her to do anything, but compared to Asagiri, I have a much different impression of her when I ask her to do something.

“E-even I’m trying to …… be useful to Arase……”

What, is that ……? Wait a minute? Why do you look like you’re about to cry a little!
I’m just kidding! I was just making light-hearted remarks, like I always do! What’s the matter!

I was flustered by Asagiri’s unexpected reaction. Suddenly, my eyes met Ayako san’s and she was shaking her head in an expression of begrudging satisfaction.

“Mouu, Ito-kun! You can’t! If you make Yuuri-chan cry!”
“Oh, no,…… sorry,…….”

Kurase told me, and all I could do was apologize. Kurase was hugging Asagiri, who was getting teary-eyed, and giving her a good hug.

If the school’s boys saw this, they would probably have a stroke.

“Ah, I should get out of here. Let’s go to school, shall we?”
“Yes. Thank you, Nanami.”
“Yes! I won’t forgive anyone who makes Yuri-chan cry!”

…… something about classifying me as an enemy.

“Ito-kun, you shouldn’t talk to girls like that, okay?”
“Y-Yes.”
“Good. Then, Ito-kun, let’s go, too.”

So the three of us were seen off by a grinning Ayako-san, and the three of us headed off to school together.

When I arrived at school, I felt a lot of stares from people around me, but I wanted to believe that it was my imagination.

(A/N :

I have received a lot of feedback from you all, and I thought I would continue to post this.

I will try to update as much as possible, but please understand that my mind is empty and I’ll just kind of go along with it.

I will reply to comments slowly.

I’m still trying to make the characters likable, so it’s difficult to make them likable. I have to prepare a showcase for each of the heroines.

After that, you can write me a review as well as your impressions. ……?

Just kidding. No, I want you to write a review.)
