What should I do, Amamiya-san is violating the school rules perfectly. I know it’s against school rules when it comes to nail polish, but isn’t mesh indeed out? No, other female students usually put it in, so I guess it’s not a problem, but if it were a male student, I’d be out in a heartbeat, wouldn’t I? In fact, a male student with golden mesh was shaved by the guidance teacher.

“Good morning. You’ve got stylish hair.”

“Ah, Morning. What do you think ……? Isn’t it weird?”

Is it weird to say it’s weird? I mean, I know it’s popular to have one part red, but it looks like you’ve got red ginger on your head.

“It’s cool.”

“R-really? You don’t feel like I’m on a roll?”

 
How insecure are you? You’re trying to get close to me to avoid a confession, right? Doesn’t that mean you’re aware of your cuteness? I guess I was wrong.

“I think you’re kind of lively”

“B-But …… I’m dark …… and I can’t assert myself …….”

Not as able as you say? I think Amamiya san is a bit of an egomaniac these days.

“I think it’s nice that you have a gap between your quiet demeanor and the way you look.”

“….Hatoyama kun, you praise me no matter what I do, don’t you?”

Because if I don’t praise …… her, she gets strange. If you cut your hair a millimeter or something at that level, I don’t know what she would do to me if I didn’t notice the mesh.

“That’s not what I’m saying, it’s that you’re pretty no matter what you do.”

“it’s just you, Hatoyama kun……”

What are you talking about? Takahashi-kun just confessed to you, right? And other boys have their eyes on Amamiya, too, but you’ve noticed that, haven’t you? It’s not talked about much these days, but there are still a few guys who are glancing at her. Oh, they’re definitely in love with her, aren’t they? I may look like this, but I have a keen sense when it comes to love, no doubt about it.

“Hey, I’m not really weird, am I? Really.”

This time, she’s really insisting on it. I wonder if she’s already thinking she’s being weird.

“Did someone tell you so?”

“It’s not like that, but this kind of thing is only allowed for cheerful people. ……”

“I don’t think so.”

I think it’s because I don’t have confidence in myself, so just putting in mesh makes me soar. I don’t know about you, but I’m not sure how to feel about this kind of thing. I don’t know, but isn’t this kind of thing supposed to make you feel better?

“I don’t know anything about fashion, but I do know that you’re looking great right now.”

“Well, there you go again……”

“You should be more confident. Don’t worry about being a cheerful or a shady person, just do what you want to do. It will look good on you.”

I thought she was a cheerful person when she decided to put mesh on her hair in the first place. Real cheerful people don’t go out of their way to stand out.

Still, a lot has changed in such a short period of time, hasn’t it? The inconspicuous girl who hides in plain sight has had her bangs slashed and mesh put in, and she’s wearing manicure and ……? Not a teddy bear, but …… some kind of foot manicure. I don’t care what it’s called, she’s a completely different person.

Her personality has changed too. At first she was so shy that she couldn’t even greet me properly, but now she not only greets me, but even engages me in daily conversation.

It’s a nice change, but just …….

“O-okay, I get it. I was only planning on doing it this week, but if you say so, Hatoyama kun, I think I’ll keep it in from now on.”

……………….

“I’m kind of leaning toward red, but what do you think? Maybe gold or white? Can I put more of a splash of color in there instead of just a single point?”

I think you’re taking my opinion too much into consideration, or maybe you’re just too much to my liking. I thought I said, ‘Do what you want to do’

“Hahaha, maybe you should ask the girls instead of me. the girls who wear mesh.”

“I’d like to hear your opinion, Hatoyama kun, but why are you throwing it at someone else?”

Why is that?

“Because I don’t understand that kind of thing.”

I think it’s better to be clear about this kind of thing. I can’t take responsibility if my irresponsible advice goes in a strange direction. I really don’t have any sense.

“I want you to think about it even though you don’t understand. Is that no?”

Even if you look at me as if you’re desperate, you don’t know what you don’t know. You can easily change your clothes, but you can’t mess with your hair, can you?

“I don’t care what you say, Amamiya-san, you’re so cute no matter what you do. ……”

“I-I understand that! Mouu!”

This girl is amazing. I must have called her “cute” about a hundred times in this short time, but she still reacts as if it’s the first time we’ve seen each other. Are there girls this innocent these days?

The flush in her cheeks, the croaky tone in her voice, it’s hard to believe that she’s a black-hearted girl. Sometimes I sense something disturbing, but I’m sure it’s just my imagination. Because this guy is one pure than anyone else. I envy her future husband.

“A-anyway! Tell me what you like, Hatoyama kun! I’ll reinsert it as many times as I have to!”

“Is mesh really that easy to put in? Perhaps, but shouldn’t hair be played with like character makeup in a video game?

No, let’s leave it at that. ……

“My taste? Why?”

Do I look like I have that much taste? Sure, I have a track record of finding Amamiya’s cuteness, but unless you have really bad taste, anyone can notice it.

Ah, okay, that’s how it is. Ah, yes, yes, yes. I know, I know. My intuition is really right at times like this.

“Don’t make me say why ……”

Amamiya looked away, perhaps embarrassed, as she clasped her index fingers together. I think there’s nothing to be embarrassed about.

That’s the thing, right? You don’t have confidence in yourself, so you want to leave it to others, right? If you get advice from other fashionable girls, you can’t make excuses when it doesn’t suit you, or something like that? You don’t have to worry about that.

But, well, you’re relying on me for whatever reason, so I’ll do my best to turn my head.

“Okay, you’ve made your feelings clear enough.”

“Eh, Really? Did you get it?”

“Yeah. I’m glad you’re trusting me.”

“……, that’s what that means, right? Is that what you’re thinking?”

“Yeah, that’s what I think”

I honestly didn’t know what she meant by that reminder, but communication is surprisingly easy to get into a groove with.

I’m worried that I look like a heroine who got wall-banged by a handsome face, but she’s cute, so I don’t really care anymore. I don’t feel like we’ve had a serious misunderstanding, but it won’t be a big deal. I’m convinced that my relationship with Amamiya-san is not so shallow that it can be severed by a slight misunderstanding.

“Hatoyama-kun is …… surprisingly possessive …… and aggressive ……. I like it.”

She’s mumbling something, but it’s a gentleman’s way of letting a girl’s monologue pass. Nothing good will come from listening to them, so I’m going to go to the bathroom.

If only that were the truth. This would be better off if the main character wasn’t dense. She’s clearly in love and wants to be his girlfriend. Her Yandere-ness could turn into a domineering waifu character. There’s no need to make drama out of it. Yandere can still be cute
