Chapter 6

☆ Shizuku Natsukawa ☆

In the end, I had to switch seats with Takamine-san.

Because Shota-kun was looking at me with expectant eyes.

It was upsetting to see how triumphant he was.

I wonder if he wanted to be next to Takamine-san so badly, despite the fact that he has me.

…I feel like crying.

But it's still okay. I'm not in a hurry.

After all, we've just become real lovers after being fake ones.

I'm sure we'll be able to go home together after school as usual.

" Nee~ , Sho-chan. If you want, let's go home together today. Look, we haven't seen each other in a long time, so we have a lot to talk about, right?"

"Okay♪!"

Why!? Why do you look so happy, Shota-kun!?

That "Okay!" you said just now! How dare you end it with '♪'!

You always looked so nervous when you left school with me!

Even as I was getting frustrated, Shota-kun was busy getting ready to leave.

He looked as if he was eager to be alone with Takamine-san.

…Eh!? The two of them alone…?

'"Ah, would you like to come to my house? I'm sure Mom would be happy to see Mayu-nee's face."

"Ah, can I come by Sho-chan's house if you don't mind? I want to see Auntie's face again after a long time."'

Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! What was that psychic attack!? It was as if it had been timed perfectly!

My heart! My heart will break!

Please stop trying to penetrate my AT field with such ease. That blow just now was comparable to the Spear of Longinus. (T/N: What the hell, Natsukawa…)

Wait, that's not what this is about!

Ehh? What!?

No way, Shota-kun… You're going to bring her into your home after just seeing her again!? Even though you always act so plain?

Or perhaps it's just because they're childhood friends that he invited her to his house?

What's up with that? That's not even fair.

If this is what it has come to, I should have gone there while we were faking it.

I'd like to punch myself in the face for not thinking of this back then.

…Hah~. How nice…

The two of them left the classroom while he was being beaten down by the overwhelming force of his childhood friend.

Eh? Ehh? Wait a minute!! You could care about me a little more, no!?

I have to hurry up and catch up! The two of them being alone in his room… I'm never going to let that happen!

"Um… Natsukawa-san. Do you have a minute after this?"

"Huhhh!?"

"Hiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!! I'm sorry. It's nothing!"

When a boy whose name I didn't even know spoke to me, I unconsciously released my murderous intent.

He shivered as if he had just witnessed a horrific unidentified life form.

I've got better things to do. Mobs, stay out of this!

Shizuku Natsukawa was concerned about the movements of Shota Komori, one of the mobs.
