–That can’t be true !
Because it can’t be
No, but you know what?
Yuka’s words and attitude clearly show some kind of favoritism towards me.
No, no.
All those things are just a gratitude for saving her from being hit on.
It’s the very same kind of feelings Mizuki chan had when I saved her.
It is natural to have positive feelings toward someone who has helped you, isn’t it?
In the first place, girls usually give kind words and smiles, send lines with a heart mark, and give obligatory chocolates to guys who they’re not interested in as the opposite sex.
So don’t get it wrong, Konno Sota.
No, but maybe it’s all in my own mind, and Yuuka is actually interested in me—no, no, no, no—
My thoughts were stuck in an endless loop from which I couldn’t escape, and my heart was pounding so hard that I fell silent, unable to finish the second sentence.
“……”
“……”
I was still silent, and Yuuka was quietly staring back at me.
The silence between the two of us was indescribably awkward.
“…………”
“…………”
The one who broke the strange, itchy silence was, once again, the innocent angel, Mizuki chan.
“Um ! Should we drink now? Mizuki is thirsty
!”
Thanks to Mizuki chan, who raised her right hand and said cheerfully,
“Oh, ok. That’s right ! I need to drink some juice
!”
“Y-yes. I’m thirsty. I need to drink some juice !”
“As expected of Mizuki chan, you’re great !”
“Here you go, Mizuki’s orange juice. You need to rehydrate yourself after all that exercise.”
Yuuka and I were freed from our bondage and were able to resume our conversation.
“Thank you, Onee chan.”
Mizuki chan accepted the orange juice with both hands and drank it happily.
“Sota kun, you can have some too.”
“Thanks.”
I also took the sports drink in my mouth.
The cold spuds spread comfortably in my heart and body, which had been heated by the pounding.
Thanks to this, my head and heart, which were about to boil over, regained their composure for the time being.
Phew.
That was really close.
If the strange atmosphere had continued, I would have definitely said something unnecessary.
[I love Yuuka]
[Please go out with me]
I must have expressed my hidden feelings.
But I knew I shouldn’t have misunderstood.
[The fact that Sota kun saved me from being hit on by some guy was what was cool about him, but it did not mean that Konno Sota was cool and I liked him as the opposite sex.”
I should not confuse the two.
If Yuuka and I were to get awkward, I would not be able to casually visit the Himemiya house as we have done so far.
If that happens, Mizuki chan will be sad.
So in order not to betray the trust of Mizuki chan who adores me, Yuuka and I have to keep our relationship as it is now.
“Hey, Sota kun.”
“Hmm?”
“You were about to say something, weren’t you? What was it?”
“Eh? No, nothing. I’m just glad that Yuuka is safe.”
I answered Yuuka’s question with a few casual words to cover it up.
“…..I see. Yeah, of course.”
Hearing my answer, Yuuka seemed to look a little disappointed—and I’m pretty sure that’s just my imagination.
The bad thing about ordinary mob boys like me is that we immediately associate everything with [Maybe someone has a crush on me?]
Even if you look at the Internet for a moment, there is no shortage of stories about [Misunderstood guy].
Even if that’s not the case, I’m looking at the school’s idol, Himemiya Yuuka, right in front of me, you know?
I’ve got to draw a line in the sand there and be careful.
And so, here we are.
The incident where Yuuka was hit on by a guy turned out to be nothing.
After that, the three of us enjoyed the flowing pool, water slides, and other attractions.
