After I Saved Kirigiri San, a Cool, Sharp-tongued Gyaru, From a Pick-up, She Started Coming Into My House the Next Day
I managed to finish all the classes despite being bewildered by Misuzu’s sudden appeal.
As soon as the chime rang, I received a lot of heated (in a bad way) stares from the students.
Just when I was thinking that I should leave early today before I was bombarded with questions from all directions, Misuzu hurriedly gathered her belongings and approached me.
“Yuuma♪”
Misuzu clung to my arm with a joyful expression that showed no trace of coolness.
“Wait wait ! What’s gotten into you? All of a sudden !”
“Why? We’re in a relationship. It’s called a skinship.”
“You fool……!”
Misuzu’s chest brushed against my arm, and the sweet scent of her perfume reached my nose. I felt dizzy in many ways.
Or rather, do women really change this much after just starting to date?
I know that skinship is inevitable when you’re in a relationship, but it’s not something I want to do at school or even in the classroom !
They say love is blinding, but it seems that Misuzu doesn’t care about the stares of those around her.
“Maybe you’re embarrassed in front of everyone?”
Misuzu deliberately raised her voice so that everyone could hear her.
What on earth is she thinking? This was going to add fuel to the fire of the boys.
“No, you…….anyone would be surprised by this…”
“I don’t care. We kissed at home, so this is nothing to be upset about, right?”
“Hey, hey ! You can’t say that !”
“Eh? Why?”
Misuzu tilted her head slightly with an expression of no malice.
My classmates who were watching the exchange between me and Misuzu were staring at us with their mouths hanging open.
Of course. Misuzu, who is always cool and tongue-tied in front of boys, was smiling brightly in front of me.
And then there are the strong terms of love, such as “going out” and “kissing”. This was enough to break the boys’ hearts.
“That guy….let’s kill him.”
“Why is he and Misuzu san together……”
“Damn iiiiiiiiiiiiiit !”
“It’s a lie ! Tell me it’s not true !”
“What do you mean, ‘kissing’ !?”
“Dating !? That’s a lie 1 That’s impossible……”
“Oh yeah ! This must be a dream ! Aaaaahhhh !”
The boys’ screams echoed through the classroom. It was as if they were surprised when a very famous idol was found to be in love with a regular person. It’s probably a sure bet that I’m going to be stabbed in the back……
“Hey, let’s go shopping quickly～”
“I-I know…….let’s get the hell out of here.”
I left the classroom to get away from the boys.
I wondered if the rumors about me and Misuzu had already spread, and when I went out into the hallway, I was getting a lot of stares from all directions. It was as if we were walking down a Hollywood red carpet.
In contrast to my being flustered, Misuzu was holding my arm happily.
My head was spinning at the thought that I was about to be subjected to this envious gaze.
I mean, isn’t the hurdle for the first challenge too hard !?
◆ ◆ ◆
“Haa……I might be killed…..”
I managed to get through the school gate, and after walking for a while, I let out a sigh as hard as I could.
It’s not that I wasn’t prepared, but I never expected this many people…..
Even though I had only come to take an afternoon class, I felt overcome with fatigue, as if I had just completed a full marathon.
It’s unpleasant to be watched by so many people……
“What are you talking about? Just because we’re dating doesn’t mean that’s gonna happen. Besides, after a while, everyone will understand about our relationship. You know, they say rumors last for 75 days.”
Misuzu smiled.
“I don’t think that saying will work for you……”
“You’ll get used to it.”
No, I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it.
There were not a few boys who were looking at me with murderous intent in their eyes. Tomorrow, I definitely won’t make it back alive.
If you think about it, Misuzu was getting stares from all kinds of people every day…… I was one of those people who were throwing stares at Misuzu just a few days ago, but I never thought that I would be the center of attention so much.
[(Haga) What is going on ! Something terrible is happening at school !]
[(Haga) You two are dating !? The hell is going on !?]
[(Haga) Answer me ! I’m so curious that I can’t sleep at night, so please tell me ! Please !]
Haga’s messages flowed in at a tremendous rate.
I decided to ignore them because I didn’t want any more trouble. I’m sorry, Haga.
“Haa~! Now I won’t have to get confessions from those annoying boys.”
Misuzu is stretching her back and putting on a fresh expression.
After receiving confessions from boys almost every day, there is nothing more liberating than this.
Well, as her boyfriend, I’m very happy that Misuzu can spend her time in a comfortable environment, but I must not forget that there is a possibility that I might be in danger in return.
“Oh yeah, you wanna cook together for the first time in a while?”
Misuzu squeezed my hand with her small one. Thanks to that, I felt my impatience and anxiety gradually become calmer.
Yeah. There was no point in fretting now. As her boyfriend, I should be firm here.
“Sounds good. A lot has happened recently so we haven’t had a chance to cook together.”
“That’s right. Let’s put nutmeg in it.”
“What’s that?”
“Nutmeg reduces the smell of meat. It makes it taste better……didn’t you know that?”
“No.”
I love having this kind of casual conversation with Misuzu.
I thought I wanted a peaceful and tranquil school life, but when I met Misuzu and got to know her, my gray school life became more bright and vivid.
My encounter with Misuzu was not a cool one, but it was because of that incident when I got involved with playboys that I met Misuzu and am where I am today.
(You never know what life is going to throw you.)
“Yuuma !”
Misuzu calls my name in a gentle tone.
Misuzu looks at me as if she wants something.
“I like you.”
Misuzu is always like that.
Whenever we finish talking and there is nothing to talk about, she looks at my face and says that.
I was incredibly happy.
“Thanks. I like you too. Misuzu.”
Misuzu smiled happily. I squeezed Misuzu’s hand gently.
I felt that we would support each other hand in hand from now on, and that we would be able to overcome any hardship together.
I thought so as I looked at the cloudless blue sky.
