Ummm ……. Amamiya has definitely changed since I started working with her. Overall, the change is definitely in a positive direction. However, …….
“Amamiya? Did you hurt your neck?”
“Eh? Oh, no,…… not really,……”
Her movements are strange. She seems to be looking around more than before, and she often hides her face and neck. It’s probably unconscious.
Her voice is a little louder than before, and the amount of conversation has increased. She’s even started to pay more attention to her fashion (her hair and manicure, at least). So why? If she changes in that direction, shouldn’t her behavior improve? When one gains self-confidence, isn’t it normal for one’s behavior to become more imposing?
“Hey, hey, Hatoyama, look at this.”
While I was analyzing Amamiya-san, another female student approached me. Um, what is it? Earrings? I don’t know, but it’s too much trouble, so I’ll just give her a random compliment.
“Oh, they’re cute. But isn’t that against school rules?”
“Wow, you’re still as stiff as ever. Oh, well, thanks.”
I wonder, do you think I’m the main organizer of the class? I don’t know what it is, but there are a lot of people who ask me for my opinion.
Do they think I’m a reviewer?
“……………… Oh, that’s …….”
“Hm? What?”
“…… nothing.”
I am glad that Amamiya-san approached me, but please don’t cut me off in a way that bothers her. What is it that I’ve been doing? Well, I think it’s a groundless fear. There is nothing I would ever misbehave.
“You know, Hatoyama kun?”
“Hmm? Ah, yes, what is it?”
Amamiya-san spoke to me again. Was this a continuation of the conversation we broke off earlier?
“After all, you say everyone is cute, don’t you?”
I wonder what she saw that made her think so. If she was referring to the earlier incident, I would have to say that she was misguided.
“What I said earlier was an assessment of the earrings.”
“…………”
“Well, she’s cute, too.”
“……, I see.”
hmm……? The tone of your voice was lower than usual. What can I say, it seems to be filled with not good feelings,…….
“Of course, Amamiya-san is prettier, though.”
“…… hmmm?”
Oh, it’s higher this time. The tone of human voice can be so unstable?
“Why don’t you try putting something on, Amamiya-san?”
At any rate, I made a messy suggestion to turn the tide. I pointed out that it was against school rules. Well, it’s okay, because school rules nowadays are like they never were.
“…… such things are …… fashionable kids.”
That’s easy to understand, Amamiya. I knew you would definitely get a denial like that.
“Fashionable? You already are.”
“……?!”
I guess because I suddenly took her hand, she jumped up with a start. Oh bad, should I have said it normally with my mouth? I’ve already had a manicure.
“Oh, you didn’t like it? I’m sorry, I’ll never touch you again, Amamiya san…”
“Don’t worry, not at all.”
She’s a kind girl after all. Even though she hated it so much that it made her blush, she still cared about me.
If I get too cocky here, I’ll become a s*xual harasser. I guess the assholes in the world are born as a result of being spoiled by others.
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay.”
“I won’t touch you again. Don’t worry. ……”
“Didn’t you hear me? I said I’m fine.”
I don’t know, she really cares about me, doesn’t she? How should I put it, pressure? I felt something irresistible.
No, maybe she’s just testing my humanity. Let’s be decisive here, and keep a strict no-touch attitude.
“But touching a girl’s hand is ……”
“What?”
“There’s ………… folk dancing and stuff, so it’s not really a problem.”
The pressure was too much to bear, and she easily bent her posture.
There is nothing to be ashamed of. If a creature can’t flexibly adapt to changes in its environment, it will just die. I made the best choice as a creature, that’s all.
“But ……”
“But?”
You talk a lot today, Amamiya-san.It’s a good sign, except for the fact that she always wears a weird aura.
“I think touching girls is …… basically a bad idea. ……”
“…… yeah.”
Then touching her might not be a good idea either, right? I thought, but I felt like I shouldn’t mention it.
“I don’t mind, though ……”
“…… I see.”
Maybe you want me to touch you? just kidding, hahaha.
What kind of intention is she talking about, then, ……?
“And …….”
Oh, you’re still talking? Are you still going to speak up? If it’s just small talk, it’s fine, but a conversation that starts with “and” in this vein is not a good thing.
“I don’t think you should tell girls they’re cute.”
……I’ve been told this from time to time. I think socializing is basically about getting compliments, isn’t it? I mean, it’s not good to spoil them badly, but…
Oh, is this a roundabout way of saying, “I’m embarrassed, so don’t compliment me anymore?” If that’s the case, I’ll have to think of another way to attack her.
I can’t keep doing something she doesn’t like.
“Then amamiya-san …….”
“I don’t mind at all.”
What is wrong with you? Are your feelings that big?
“And ……”
There it is! condemning my words and deeds! Sometimes you have to affirm what I say and do!
“The other day …… um …… my neck ……”
“neck ……?”
Amamiya san’s neck? What did I do? You’ve been hiding it from me since a while ago, but what does it have to do …… with me? …… Oh, are you talking about that thing by any chance?
“Are you talking about the cute little mole on your neck?”
“……”
I don’t know why you’re having a hard time saying that, but it seems like I’m right on the money.
I was just giving her a random compliment, but was it a minefield? Maybe it was a complex? Come to think of it, there are surgeries to remove moles and makeup to hide them, so is it any wonder that some people find moles repulsive?
I mean, if I think about it, I don’t need a mole either. I wouldn’t mind having one on my arm or something, but if it were on my face, I would absolutely hate it. I mean, not that I’m absolutely sure, but…
“I think it’s okay for boys to talk to each other, but it’s not okay to talk to girls like that. ……”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry ……. I didn’t mean to offend you …….”
“I don’t mind it at all.”
What is se really like, this person? You definitely care about it. If you don’t care, you don’t point it out every time. But I don’t feel like she’s mad at me.
“I guess I wasn’t thinking straight, either. …… I think it was insensitive.”
“I don’t mind. ……”
I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, and you’re always trying to show that you’re the only exception. What is your intention? Are you telling me not to praise anyone but yourself?
No, that’s unlikely, but …….
“Anyway, I don’t think you should tell the other girls. If you start a weird rumor among the girls, it will eventually spread to the whole class.”
That’s like a game of word-of-mouth, and by the time it gets to people with whom you have a small circle of friends, there’s a tail attached to it, isn’t there? And girls don’t tell the parts that are inconvenient for them, do they? If you take into account the possibility that the person in question is making up a story, the difference between shoplifting and casino robbery is likely to be great
“Girls are scary. I dare say they are good at cooperation or networking. ……”
“I would never spread the word, though.”
So what is that appeal? I don’t think so, but are you trying to bring yourself up by bringing down the entire girl population? That you are different from other girls?
Hmm… I think that’s not a very good tendency. It’s good to be confident in yourself, but it’s not good to look down on others. Other people are smarter than you think, so you can vaguely sense that “Oh, this person looks down on others.”
“Thanks for the advice. I’ll be very careful how I treat girls.”
“You should do that. You don’t have to be so careful with me.”
………………………… I’m sure Amamiya-san is trying to get us closer. That’s right, now that she’s talking a lot, how can I not interpret that in a positive way? Yes, she’s a good girl.
…… I’m not wrong, am I? I’m not wrong about this decision of mine, am I?
