“Good morning, Sota kun.”
“Good morning, Yuuka.”
“See you tomorrow, Sota kun.”
“Bye, Yuuka. See you tomorrow.”
From that day, Yuuka and I started to greet each other in the morning and on the way home.
But there was nothing special going on with Yuuka besides that.
One day, my high school life was going smoothly, even though I would sometimes sigh when I heard rumors about how I had been dumped by Kuzugaya.
After all the morning classes were over, I had lunch with Kensuke in the cafeteria during lunch break, and we were chatting, talking nonsense,
Ping♪
I heard a light sound and my phone notified me that I had an incoming line message.
Incidentally, since I don’t have many close friends, I rarely receive a line from anyone other than Kensuke (and Kensuke is not the sender since he is right in front of me right now).
I looked down at my phone and wondered who it was,
[Sota kun, are you free after school today?]
It was Yuuka who sent the message.
“So, what do you think Aiba said after that? It’s—“
“Sorry Kensuke, I got a message on line, let me reply to it.”
“Oui, I’m watching a video at random, so let me know when you’re done.”
“Got it.”
I casually declined so that Kensuke wouldn’t realize that it was a message from Yuuka.
……No, right?
It’s not like I’m doing anything wrong, so I don’t have any problems even if he notices it, right?
But you know, even though it’s just an exchange of messages, if there are a lot of stories and weird rumors going around, Yuuka would be in trouble, right?
Kensuke is still wondering if I’m dating Yuka.
And since Kensuke’s voice is naturally loud, everyone around him can hear what he’s saying.
I was making excuses in my mind that I didn’t need to make,
[I’m in a go-home club, so I don’t have anything to do after school all the time.]
I secretly sent a reply to Yuka,
[Good ! Then why don’t you come over to my place after school today?]
The surprising message came back with a cute stamp and almost no pause.
“Eh—!?”
“What’s wrong, Sota?”
I couldn’t hold back my heartbeat and unintentionally let out a small voice, but Kensuke raised his eyes from his phone and looked at me suspiciously.
“Ah, no, nothing.”
“That so?”
I guess he wasn’t interested in anything in particular, and Kensuke dropped his gaze to his phone again.
I was relieved to see Kensuke’s reaction, and I looked over the text again.
[Good ! Then why don’t you come over to my place after school today?]
No matter how many times I looked back at it, I could see that it was indeed written that way.
Won’t you come over to my place–she said?
I didn’t think this was an invitation from Yuuka for an after-school date at her house.
[When Mizuki asked, ‘When is Sota Onii chan coming next time? Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow?’ she wouldn’t listen.]
But when she continued to send me such a sentence, it made a lot of sense to me.
Well, that’s right, isn’t it?
That’s how it is.
Mizuki chan wants to see me.
That’s right.
What’s with Yuuka’s invitation for an after-school date at home?
How much more of a painful misunderstanding do I have to go through?
Yuuka is the idol of the school who gets scouted by major entertainment agencies just by walking around downtown.
She’s different from me, an average looking guy, from the very beginning of his existence.
Look at reality, Konno Sota.
You’re just a mob who can’t even be compared to the idol of the school.
[Got it. I also wanted to meet Mizuki chan, so I think I’ll visit Yuuka’s house after school today.]
I carefully chose my words so that Yuuka would not know that I was about to make a bad misunderstanding.
