“I’m a useless person….”
No matter how you look at it, if you were involved in such blatant pick-up, you’d have to refuse…but in the end, I ended up worrying about my mom and dad a lot.
And even though there weren’t many people passing by that place, it wasn’t like no one was there…….
I wish I could be stronger…..
“That’s right…I need to contact Shin.”
I told my mom and dad about today and they were extremely concerned.
They said it would be difficult for them to come and pick me up, as they are in a very important period of their lives.
So they suggested that I ask my childhood friend Shin to pick me up.
If that was not possible, I would try to get my dad to come and pick me up.
As for me, I just don’t want to cause trouble for both of them……
That’s why I contacted Shin.
[Shin?]
[Hm? What’s wrong?]
[Actually, I was on my way home from cram school today……]
I explained that I was getting picked-up and taken away on my way home from cram school when a kind person rescued me.
[For real?]
[Yeah. So I talked it over with my mom and dad, and I was thinking that from now on, I’d really appreciate it if you could pick me up……of course, I’m not forcing you to do it, but……is it okay for me to ask that?]
I said so, but the cram school finishes at 7:30, which is not early by any means, so I honestly don’t think it would be a problem if he said no.
In fact, my mom and dad were the same in that opinion.
Still, I would be very happy if he accepted because he was worried about me……
[But the cram school finishes after 7:00, right?]
[Y……yeah, 7:30, I think.]
[Seriously……I’m partying with friends and playing FPS at that time of the day,…..and I’m pushing myself right now at the end of the season.]
[I-I see. Of course, I’m not forcing you, so if you don’t think it’s a good idea, it’s okay.]
[I’m sorry. But you really have to be careful.]
[Yeah. Okay.]
I finished such an exchange and lay down on the bed.
[I see……]
Even though he said he was worried, the game with his friends was more important to him……
But it seems like a promise that was originally planned, so I guess it can’t be helped.
Still, I guess I would have been happy if he said he was coming to pick me up.
But I don’t seem to be getting depressed anymore about what he said to me.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that I don’t like him anymore, but I wonder why……
But it is true that I’m still feeling a little down.
Well, there’s no point in worrying about such things.
“I wonder if Kaito kun will come…….”
I suddenly thought about that.
For some reason, I feel like Kaito kun will come.
“But that’s not good.”
There’s no way I’m going to cause that much trouble.
I’m sure Kaito kun has something to do, too.
I can’t ask him to pick me up a few times a week after 7:30 a.m…..
But I don’t know what to do ….I don’t want to bother my mom and dad either…..
They’ve been telling me for a little while now that work is an important time for them.
Maybe I should just be patient after all…..but I wonder if I can refuse if the same thing happens……
To be honest, even now I’m scared to think about what would have happened if Kaito kun hadn’t been there.
If I refuse and they get violent, I’m sure I won’t be able to move.
That’s when I remembered Kaito kun’s words from earlier.
He told me that he was worried about me and that he wanted me to rely on him.
“I think I’ll just ask him…….”
I thought so and decided to contact Kaito kun.
[Kaito kun, are you awake?]
[I’m awake. What’s wrong?]
[Anyway, thank you again for today.]
[Yeah. It’s fine.]
[So, I told my mom and dad about today…….
I told him what had just happened.
[I see…….Yamazaki can’t make it because of personal business, but you don’t want to bother your parents, do you?]
[Yeah……and so…..if it’s not too much trouble for you, Kaito kun, could you come and pick me up……?]
I asked him that, thinking that it was something he would have to say no to, and he immediately replied.
[Fine by me.]
[Eh? Really?]
[Sure. There’s no reason for me to refuse, and I’m the one who asked you to rely on me. But please let me know in advance when you have cram school.]
I found myself getting nervous when Kaito kun answered immediately without time to think about it.
I was surprised to hear him say that even though there is no merit in it from Kaito kun’s point of view…….
It was the first time I had been treated so kindly by a man other than my dad, so I was a little confused but very happy.
[Yeah….thanks. I’ll definitely call you the day before if I have cram school.]
[Yeah. Later then.]
[Yeah. Later.]
“Haa, Kaito kun…….”
At first, our relationship started off in a wrong way, but now he has definitely become my emotional support.
Besides, lately I’ve even been getting nervous about Kaito kun…
I don’t know what’s wrong with me…….
There is no doubt that I like Shin.
Even though I still want to date him, Kaito is definitely in my heart these days.
“But it would be really reassuring if Kaito kun is coming…”
Even the strong-looking guys today left as if they were running away from Kaito kun.
It may be because of Kaito kun’s past actions, but from my point of view, he is still very reliable.
Besides, I want to support Kaito kun, who is trying to atone for his past and move on with his life…if there’s anything I can do, I’d even like to help.
Before I knew it, I had been truly rejected by Shin and felt depressed, but my heart became warm as I thought about Kaito kun.
