It’s already bright outside.
In the end, I couldn’t sleep a wink and woke up in the morning.
No wonder, considering yesterday’s secret meeting between Seiji and Ayame…the atmosphere between them was clearly that of a man and a woman.
I’m not sure what Seiji was thinking, but Ayame was definitely acting like a woman. This isn’t just my jealousy, possessiveness, or a woman’s intuition—it’s something that anyone could see from the outside.
Ayame, were you targeting Seiji…?
It’s true that Seiji and I haven’t made our relationship public, and only Itsuki kun knows about it.
So I suppose there might be other women who notice Seiji’s charm and try to get close to him…but there was something off about Ayame.
The fact that she introduced me to Itsuki kun, the fact that she often finds herself alone with Seiji because they’re in the same group at the forest school, and…her composed demeanor in response to my outburst yesterday.
It was as if she knew this would happen, as if she was annoyed by my rage over Seiji.
That’s not an attitude someone would have if they didn’t know about my relationship with Seiji… “Clearly suspicious.”
Perhaps Itsuki kun told Ayame about my relationship with Seiji.
If that’s the case, Ayame’s actions can’t be called those of a friend.
What could be happening…
“Those two…could they be colluding…?”
Assuming that Itsuki kun wants to date me and Ayame wants to date Seiji. And they know that Seiji and I are dating. For those two, having Seiji and I break up would be ideal, and their interests align in conspiring.
Honestly, I don’t want to doubt Ayame, who was my first friend.
But the fact is, the reason our relationship with Seiji became strained was because of that woman.
“…I might as well tear her apart and make her spill everything.”
Every time I recall Ayame’s behavior yesterday, trying to get close to Seiji, it makes me sick. It’s unforgivable.
But if Ayame doesn’t know about my relationship with Seiji and is genuinely interested in him, then I don’t think she deserves to be punished.
As you probably noticed from my conversation with Seiji yesterday, I should go tell Ayame that Seiji and I are dating.
After telling her, I’ll decide what to do based on how she reacts…if she still tries to get close to Seiji…
For now, I’ll take out my phone and contact Ayame to ask her to talk.
“Oh, I forgot to reply to Itsuki kun…I’ll just block him.”
I don’t want Seiji to suspect me, so it’s better to cut off any worries.
With that in mind, I press the block button, and the message “Blocked (2)” appears.
This app, LIME, displays the number of blocked users in parentheses when you block someone, but I’ve never used the block function before.
I wondered who else I had blocked, so I checked the block list.
Then I saw
“No…way…why…!”
There was someone I would never voluntarily block, someone I should never block.
“Why did I block Seiji…? I sent him a lot of messages yesterday…”
The chat history is still there. Then I realized.
“Could it be that the blocked account is the real Seiji’s account, and the other one is a fake…?”
I briefly wondered who could have done this, but the answer came to me immediately.
“Ayame…”
I had previously asked Ayame to repair my phone when it was malfunctioning. Since Ayame’s family runs a mobile phone company, I thought it would be faster and more reliable than asking someone else. Plus, I have passwords set on everything I don’t want others to see…like the LINE messages with Seiji and the folder with photos of us together.
So there’s no way anyone could see them.
But everything started to make sense. This fake account must be Ayame’s doing.
And I’m sure Itsuki kun is in on it too.
“Hahaha….hahaha…”
That woman…I’ll never forgive her.
She ruined my relationship with Seiji to take him away from me.
Since I’ve blocked Seiji, he probably thinks I’m ignoring him. So he got angry and started ignoring me too…and when he finally talked to me, he said he was sick of me.
But isn’t Seiji also at fault? If the LINE isn’t working, he could have come to talk to me directly.
Was that all he felt for me? Maybe after we drifted apart, Ayame started hitting on him, and he got a big head?
“I need to have a proper talk with Seiji…if he ignores me again or refuses to listen…”
But first, I need to deal with that woman.
“Oh, right. I just had a great idea.”
I unblocked Seiji’s real account…and Itsuki kun’s.
