*Sakuragawa Sakurako’s point of view

Kimura rushes away.

I felt all my strength leave my body at once and sat down flat on the ground.

Seeing me like that, senpai held out his hand to me.

“Are you okay?”

“Senpai……”

I stare at the palm of his hand.

I was so happy to see his big hand protecting me again.

I am sure that there was a sense of security there.

I reached out to take his hand.

My fingertips touched his warm hand, and he tried to shake mine – and at that moment…

“……eh”

Yukimiya-senpai’s hand reaches out from the side and takes my hand.

Cool, smooth hands.

It’s not senpai’s,…….

“Are you okay? I’ll help you.”

“!!!”

Yukimiya-senpai’s face looks like she’s smiling, but she’s not smiling at all.

This is the power of a beautiful woman…I see, it’s no wonder he’s intimidated.

“T-thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

With Yukimiya-senpai’s help, I stood up.

Yukimiya-senpai looked at me with a somewhat satisfied look on her face, then she looked at Mizuki-senpai who was standing next to me, blank-faced.
　

“More importantly, Mizuki-san. Why do you always seem to get yourself into trouble?”

“I’m not conscious of it, but I can’t help it, can I? I saw him following Sakuragawa.”

“Just because you saw her,……, is Sakuragawa san…. important to you, Mizuki-san?”

My heart skipped a beat at Yukimiya-senpai’s question.

Mizuki-senpai answered simply.

“I wouldn’t say she’s important, but I do know her.”

“!!!”

K-know…….

“…I see. Now that I think about it, Mizuki-san would help even a complete stranger, so his actions just now don’t seem all that strange to me. Generally speaking, though, they seem strange to most people.”

“Eh?”

“The fact that you’re not even aware of it worries me about the future… in many ways.”

Senpai didn’t seem to understand the meaning of Yukimiya-senpai’s words at all.

But it was obvious to everyone.

Looking at Yukimiya-senpai’s jealous face, clearly conscious of Mizuki-san,

“I think I have to re-educate Mizuki-san from scratch after all. So from now on, we will spend a lot of time together, and I will teach Mizuki-san what “normal” is….fufufu”

“I’m not that bad at studying.”

“I’m talking about social studies!”

“Do I really have that little common sense?”

“You have no common sense, or something close to it.”

“R-really? ……”

“I’m serious. ……”

This person is still strange.

It is said that a true eccentric is not at all aware that he or she is an eccentric, but Mizuki senpai is the real deal.

“Well, don’t worry. I’ll teach you everything I know.”

“P-please”

“! Yes, I’m looking forward to working with you!”

“?”

I feel like a bad contract has just been signed in a place that Mizuki-senpai definitely doesn’t understand.

And it’s a bad contract for me too …….

“(Yukimiya-senpai and Mizuki-senpai being together forever is just…)”

A blurred mind.

I hate it.

Mizuki-senpai is with another girl when I’m not around.

“And–Sakuragawa-san.”

Yukimiya-senpai looks at me.

“It’s good to be nice and cute to everyone, but I think you should refrain from being too obvious and mocking in the future. Whether consciously or unconsciously, so as not to invite something like this.”

”……Yes, I understand.”

That is exactly what Yukimiya-senpai said.

I’ve always liked the idea of being liked by everyone.

But it’s also true that recently it’s been causing a lot of trouble.

If I don’t refrain from it……

“You’re still a freshman, so you’ll learn a lot …… from now on.”

–But

“Mizuki-senpai!”

“”…… Eh?””

I hugged Mizuki-senpai’s arm.

And then, with an extraordinary smile on my face, I said.

“I am so grateful to you for saving my life!”

“!! W-Wait, Sakuragawa san!?I just told you to refrain. ……”

“Of course I’ll refrain. But it’s okay if it’s someone I want to be thought of as cute, right? Fufu♡ Even if it’s a bit obvious like this.”

“Whaa……”

I have no intention of backing down just because it’s Yukimiya-senpai.

I already want to know more about Mizuki-senpai.

I have the utmost curiosity about Mizuki-senpai.

“Thank you so much for helping me, Yukimiya-senpai! That’s, well… really.”

“Sakuragawa-san,……”

“But I’m greedy and the ultimate youngest child.”

I want what I want.

I’ve never once put up with it.　

And I have no intention of holding back in the future.

“It’s fine, isn’t it, Mizuki-senpai ♡?”

I asked senpai with a superior look.

He was looking puzzled and his eyes were swimming.　

He is really an interesting person.

I could understand why both Yukimiya-senpai and Nishiumi-senpai go to Nari High School.

　
So I too…Fufufu ♡

I’m looking forward to what’s to come… ♡

*Kaito Hazuki’s point of view

Scroll through the DM section of the SNS.

“Kaho, Miyoko, Satsuki, Mami……, all those girls I haven’t seen lately.”

I sigh and turn off my phone as I see dozens of messages piling up.

For two weeks now, I’ve been cooped up in my house.

–But today is the end of that.

“Haha, I’m looking forward to going back to school…… tomorrow.”

I’m pretty frustrated.

It’s really …… ballsy of you to suspend me.

“But I’m sure he’s in despair right now.”

He’s definitely not in a position at Nari High since he got us suspended.

And he seemed to be getting along well with the “White Silver Goddess,” but regardless of how that came about, she must be bored with him by now anyway.

“Ahhhh, really, I’m looking forward to it.”

What shall I do with the shady boy who did this to me?

“…A virgin who has never even held a woman in his arms, getting carried away… ahahaha.”

I can’t help but grin.

It’s because I can easily imagine his unhappiness.

The peace is over.

There’s only hell from here on out, so …… be prepared, okay?

“Hahaha, I’m looking forward to tomorrow. This might be the first time I’m looking forward to meeting a shady guy”

There is no defeat for me, Kaito Hazuki.

So naturally, there’s no way I’m going to be left beaten.

I’m the one who always wins in the end.

I’m sorry, but I’ll take it all. …… haha!
