★ Kamiya Suguru (Side)
“Why do both Ai and Haruka care about that guy, that’s not normal.”
Suguru couldn’t help but be uncomfortable with this.
From Suguru’s point of view, Sano was a dangerous person, especially because of Ai, who had never tried to befriend anyone of the opposite gender other than himself.
And the ace of the basketball team’s first year is completely taken by Sano, Takumi senpai, who had high expectations for him in junior high school, likes Sano a lot and talks to him all the time.
Also, Haruka was smiling a lot in the morning today, and I thought something good must have happened, but I didn’t really pay attention to it, but after talking to Sano at lunchtime, her smile had obviously increased even more.
I thought something had happened, so I asked her what she was talking about, but she casually dismissed it and said it was no big deal. There was no way that could be true If it wasn’t a big deal, she looked that happy.
Suguru had been a little frustrated since before he graduated from junior high school.
The three childhood friends are clearly of a high level, even without their own favouritism.
Therefore, they are extremely popular, and this came to light during the graduation season.
Because it was graduation, many people were confessing their feelings for them.
They were confessed to by people with higher specs than me, including the ace of the football club, a handsome young master, and an influencer with a million followers on social networking sites.
Fortunately, all three of them had turned them down, but it wouldn’t necessarily be the same in high school.
So the strategy he came up with was to first lie to the guys in his class that he had already promised to marry them and try to keep them away.
The strategy worked unexpectedly well and everyone in the class believed it and no one wanted to approach them.
He was conscious not to talk about such things in front of the girls because he thought it would be a little bad if the three of them heard about it.
As for Ai and Sara, it didn’t matter because they didn’t try to make friends, but Haruka was friends with all the girls in class.
But Haruka didn’t seem to know about that story.
So I was relieved.
But while none of the boys in the class wanted to approach the three of them, there was one exception, and that was Sano Akuru.
A foreign object that approached Ai and Haruka and wreaked havoc on their paradise.
Since Ai’s unusual behaviour, Suguru had been watching closely, and after a little observation, he found out that Ai had not exchanged contact details with anyone other than him and her family until now.
However, she was playing with her phone with a smile on her face, so he looked in a little and saw that she was LIME with Sano, Suguru saw that and his head was spinning.
Previously, Suguru had thought that Ai was just being threatened, but looking at Ai’s expression now, it was clear that she did not dislike it, in fact, she had the opposite expression.
When he realised this, Suguru’s head was not working properly.
Therefore, she was brainwashed, or so he interpreted it.
In the meantime, Sato and Sakaguchi asked him.
“Suguru is really lucky, isn’t he?~”
“Right~, it’s not normal that he’s even promised to marry three such cute childhood friends.”
Suguru liked this time unbearably, because it felt good to be envied for being close to three childhood friends.
Suguru was not very confident in himself, but he was still very proud.
Therefore, Suguru had come to think of the three as his own at some point.
“Well~, we’ve been together for a long time, it’s like we’re destined to be together, our parents are in contact with each other too~”
“So how is it really, Suguru?”
“What do you mean?”
It’s not that I didn’t know, it’s just that it was hard to say.
The truth of the answer is that he only kissed on the cheek, and that was in the early years of primary school.
Prideful Suguru couldn’t have said it.
Therefore, he pretended not to understand.
“No, no, you promised to marry the three of them, didn’t you? How is it possible that you haven’t done anything?”
“That’s the thing~ you’re too much of a stonehead to have done nothing.”
“Haa~, you guys, there’s no way I’m such a slacker.”
“Oh? So how far did you actually get?”
“It was obvious that I would have gone all the way to the end, after all, I would have finished with that in middle school.”
He was so provoked that he couldn’t help but say something unfounded.
“Phewww, you’re such a guy, that’s great~I’ve never dated a girl before.”
“don’t matter what you say about Sato, so how did it go when you do it?”
“Sure! That’s really interesting.”
Of course, I don’t know about that, but the reaction from the two of them was pleasant and I was on a roll.
“Ah, it was a mess, you gu”s should try it, you’ll see.’
“How often do you do it?”
“Mmm~ I’ve got club activities, so about twice a week per person.”
“Yeah, that’s a lot of work.”
“Haha, well, that’s all right. Come on, let’s get out of here.”
He knew that anything more would be a sham, so Ihebacktracked.
Suguru was not without guilt about lying, at first he was a little resistant to it.
However, as he continued to tell lies, he was pleasantly surprised by everyone’s reactions and gradually lost his resistance.
Therefore, he did not even think about the trouble he would cause the three of them.
He never thought that there were two people listening in the shadows.

Nanase Haruka（side)
I am now confused.
Someone I’ve loved for a long time was spreading the worst lies, and in a way that we didn’t even realise.
I’ve been feeling a little uncomfortable for a little while now because I talk to a lot of people on my own, but I never thought this would happen.
Ai and Sara, who usually don’t try to talk to anyone but us, probably don’t even suspect it at all.
Whether I should tell them this fact or not, I’m not sure.
Ai will probably still be fine, but it must be quite a shock for Sarachi.
I can imagine that the bond between the four of us from when we were little would collapse if I told them about this.
“Ha~, Suguru ……, you weren’t the kind of person to lie like that …….”
Even when he was little, he was kind to everyone and wasn’t the kind of person who would lie to hurt people.
“This story is tough for one person to hold …….”
I thought about talking to Ai about it, even though it would be tough for Sara.
But I’m afraid of breaking the bond between the four childhood friends.
“I guess I’ll just have to wait and see. ……”
