Maybe I should apologize later.

It was at that time when I was about to leave the door with such thoughts in my heart. A small sound began to be heard from behind.

“But… “

“What?”

At the sound of Osana Najimi’s voice, I looked back. Then you see what she looks like. Then she shouted, holding her fists in her hands and drawing them behind her.

“That, but..! If you don’t do this at all, Shujinko-kun! You are not interested in me!!!”

Then, in an instant, the surroundings became quiet again.

Oh… f*ck.

***

An hour later.

“… ….”

Osana Najimi sitting in my room and blowing her nose. I cried a lot the whole time, so there must be a lot of it.

“Let’s talk. I will be out.”

From noble mtl dot com

Iinazuke, with a sunken gaze, went outside to talk.

Kung-

“….”

And the closing visit.

Ha….

I was the one who brought Osana Najimi here. Something… Because she seemed to need a conversation between her and me.

It was difficult to have a conversation on the spot. At that time, she immediately started crying silently, making it impossible to have a conversation, and I guess it was because the story she was trying to tell didn’t seem like the kind of story she could tell in front of everyone.

But you can’t just stop crying in the middle of the class and wait for everyone to leave. So, this was the place I chose. There could be no better option than this for the two of you to talk.

“… ….”

That’s how Iinazuke went, and I’m still waiting.

The sound of blowing her nose faded and then stopped.

And after her momentary hesitation, I spoke to her.

“Hey.”

“….”

But she doesn’t answer. However, the slight movement of her ears accompanied by a slight glance seemed to indicate that she was listening to me.

“….”

And towards her, I carefully brought her words out.

“Are you… Do you like me?”

… That’s something I’d never thought of before.

And I prayed inwardly. Please, I hope my assumptions are not true. I mean, there must have been some misunderstanding.

“….”

But she said, turning her head to her side with slightly flushed cheeks.

“Uh.”

Oh… f*ck.

“… ….”

“… ….”

And then there is silence again.

After she sighed for a moment, I spoke to her again.

“Ha… Since when.”

“… From the end of the first semester.”

“…?”

From the end of the first semester…? No, since then? I don’t understand that I like you now, but since then? Me? Why?

“Why did you like me?”

“… I don’t know, Baka.”

“… ….”

Ha….

And the nth silence that drifts.

“But didn’t you hate me?”

And at the end, I asked her. Then she puts on a puzzled expression.

“I want you? Why do you hate it?”

“… ?”

What bullsh*t?

“You hated me for looking like a bully. You me.”

So what is this?

Then she turned her head again and said she.

“That was a misunderstanding. It happened because of each other’s fault.”

“Misunderstanding?”

“Uh.”

Heh heh…. What a bullsh*t

I didn’t even get angry. I was just genuinely dumbfounded.

“What did I do wrong?”

“That… It’s because you look like a bully.”

“hahahahaha, the f*ck really… Hey, why is that my fault… Under… done. By the way, did you think I would be interested in you after doing this and that to me? Sincerely?”

“… ….”

“Shall I honestly tell you what I think? I haven’t seen you as a woman since you did that.”

“Ha..?”

Then, she cried and made a shocked expression in a state of no energy. I continued to tell her.

“If it were like you, if you were still and someone did that sh*t, would that guy look like the same person? Doesn’t it look like a child with a mental problem? You didn’t think I just let it go, did you? I didn’t even apologize. I didn’t pass it on, I just saw you as a poor, crazy kid. That’s why I dealt with her in moderation and didn’t get angry. You say I never saw you as the same person after that?”

“Well, then..! What are you always talking about…!”

As I continued talking, her face gradually changed from shock to doubt to sadness. At last she spoke to me with her weeping face.

But I said to her with her unchanging expression.

“What is it? I just dealt with a kid with a mental problem in moderation.”

And when I finished, she started crying again.

Although it wasn’t clear as she had her head down with her knees folded, it was clear that she was crying from the sound she heard.

Ha….

I’ve been avoiding it for a long time because I was afraid it would make me this tired. Now that this has happened, I won’t be more tired, so I’ll just talk about everything.

I let her sigh for a moment and started talking again about whether or not she was crying.

“Listen while crying. I’ll tell you step by step what you did to me. If you don’t mind even after listening to everything… You’re just that kind of girl In the future, I will treat you the same way. It’s just like that.”

And then, I started to explain everything she did to me step by step. It is often accompanied by a reverse branch.

And meanwhile, her sniffles stopped.

“… A little. Do you understand? Don’t you want to Well, you don’t have to force yourself to understand. Again, I have no intention of saying anything to you after today. We just have to pretend to be non-existent and have fun with each other.”

After the story ended, she lifted her head and stared blankly at me. It was as if she was looking into the empty space near me. It’s like you’re thinking about something.

“… ….”

“… ….”

And.

After a while, she spoke to me in a quiet voice.

“… Sun….”

“What..?”

“Sorry….”

Then she speaks again with tears in her eyes.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry….”

She looked at me and muttered that she was sorry.

For a long time after that.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry….”

“… ….”

Ha….

And I was even more confused by her appearance.

She was me who honestly thought she would never say sorry. She thought in the first place that if she had the mind to think of it, she couldn’t have.

But… She apologized to me. To feel sincere.

Ha…

I couldn’t figure out what the psychology was.

In the midst of such confusion, I decided to wait until she finally let go of her throat and started crying until she stopped him.

“… Are you sorry?”

And finally, when her crying subsided, she nodded her head at her words.

“Yes… Sorry. I don’t know why I didn’t think of that.”

“… ….”

Again, this was an unexpected answer.

Because it was a sincere apology that made me wonder if he was a tsundere.

Then she started talking about old times, when she herself was little. And it was a story I knew. It was a major event in her childhood when Toyoda defended her from her children, and she became infatuated with him.

And she concluded by saying that it was probably because of the trauma that occurred then and that she was sorry again.

“… ….”

“… ….”

There was silence again between us.

Ha….

Now that I’ve received your apology… First of all, I have to tell you something important right now.

In the end, I decided to accept her apology, and this time I told her exactly what she had said to the person who liked me.

“That… First of all, thank you for apologizing. But don’t like me I can’t like anyone.”

“… ….”

After that, things went similarly to other children’s work.

Even her answer.

f*ck.

“…”

Ha…

What is it? Really.

Then I started to fall into trouble.

Did I even say that I see you as a psychopath? Why? Why don’t you take it off? Why don’t you give up

Starting with Osana Najimi, who said she would continue to like me despite my harsh words, Morish*ta Sakura, a heroine who always gave the same answer. In addition to the fact that he never gave up, I couldn’t understand why his stubbornness was so strong.

No, it’s not like I’m the only guy. To be honest, these pretty heroines were able to connect with other men. It means that you can meet a decent and nice person very easily without having to suffer because of something like me.

That said, if they didn’t know that they were popular, that wasn’t the case either. Didn’t Iinazuke know better than anyone else that he was pretty? Even those heroines just don’t talk, and there’s no way they don’t know that Ji is pretty and popular.

Now, look.

“Hey.”

“…Why.”

“Are you popular with men?”

“Go, why is that all of a sudden…!”

“A lot, not a lot.”

“…A lot.”

“Does Dash come in a lot?”

“…Uh.”

“Then how many confessions do you receive in a month?”

“About 4 times.”

Look. It’s just that a guy with that kind of personality didn’t appear in the original work, doesn’t he live with a lot of confessions like that? Even he knew that he was popular. Therefore, it is rather strange that the other heroines do not know that they are popular.

So, even if you don’t know the obvious reason, I don’t understand why you’re trying to hang on to me so hard.

Ha…

What is it really…

And after a while.

“… ….”

Ah….

From noble mtl dot com

I bet it is.

And after pondering for a while, I came to a realization.

The fact that they were Haro people of the harem that flocked to the ordinary Toyoda in the original work.

And the fact that, by their very nature, they are not characters that will fall away from me no matter what happens.

… And just then.

I felt a sense of crisis.

And I made a promise. I won’t block the harem from now on. Like that.

“… ….”

It was a resolution to change my goal in life in the opposite way. It was by no means a small commitment, and the sense of collapse would never be small.

But since Osana Najimi, the last bastion of my ideas, has become like this, the only person I can trust is Iinazuke, whom I have raised since childhood.

No more Yuna Sasaki and Mihoka Suzuki. And even though it hasn’t appeared yet, Hina Toyoda couldn’t believe it either.

If you add sh*tsuji Joshi and Igiris Riko…

“… ….”

Ha….

If things go on like this, my only friends would be Iinazuke and two other men. And, except for Sato, everything was at the level of disappearing. So, it would be difficult to exclude completely.

But, as I said before, since Osana and Najimi ended up like that, even if she tried to block them anyway, it was already too late.

So no matter what Toyoda or I do, we’re going to hurt them anyway, so I’m just trying to get some comfort from the fact that I didn’t do it. It is to save a friend who is disappearing.

I should be friends with the people up there who are certain that they are not interested in me yet, but not intervene in the case and keep a little distance from me. To be a selfless, thorough friend.

Toyoda, work hard on your own. I’ve already done enough, and now I’m giving up.

With that thought in mind, I washed my face and got out of my thoughts.

After…

And after she let out a sigh, I told her that it was okay because I had apologized to her, and led her to her front door.

A lot of time passed while we were talking, and it must have been late.

However, after leaving the door like that, Iinazuke joined in and went to the front door to stand in front.

Rumbling-

“… ….”

A boat horn echoed from her boat.

“… ….”

And her face turns red. However, she had no energy to say anything, only her face was blushing.

“… Are you fine?”

“Yes, Shujinko.”

On that day, I, who was entrusted with Iinazuke’s permission. She ate her dinner with her and drove her home.
