I Went Back in Time to 10 Years Ago and Saved My Young Lady Childhood Friend and She Became My Fiancee ~She’s Honest and Cool and Looks at Me Like She Wants to Be Cared For~
The day we studied for the test. I found out that Yorumiya was not good at teaching, so after that day, I started to watch Minamori’s study instead of her.
Of course, I was worried about my own safety, so Yorumiya was with me. Whenever I make a mistake, Yorumiya is quick to point it out.
I don’t know her thought process, but Yorumiya gives me the answer in a flash.
It’s faster than Dr. Google.
We had several study sessions after that day.
The place was still my house.
“I’m sorry, Enami-kun. I’m sorry for bothering you.”
“No, I’m fine. Teaching is also a learning experience.”
Minamori looked apologetic from start to finish. While she was talking or studying, she seemed to be more concerned than me
“I’m sorry too, Hina-chan.”
“No, it’s fine. It’s for Sara-san’s sake.”
Yorumiya replied with a slight smile. She didn’t seem particularly worried about anything. There was even a sense of ease in her voice.
Since staying at Yorumiya’s house last time, Yorumiya had become a bit more calm.
She won’t do anything outrageous in public, like the day she went shopping.
But after Minamori left, there was a slight change in the atmosphere.
“I’ll see you both later! Let’s work hard on the test!”
After the study session was over, I waved Minamori off as she walked through the station gates. The time varies. Sometimes it was dark, sometimes in the evening. We were close to home, so when we parted ways with Minamori, we headed back to the station.
“Shuu-kun.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Can I hold your hand?”
“…………”
Yorumiya asked me to hold hands with her, as is customary.
“Today, why?”
“Because it’s dark on my feet and I might fall.”
Last time it was ‘because the sun is so bright at dusk’. Maybe it doesn’t matter why or what. I don’t have any particular reason to refuse either.
“Okay.”
“Yes.”
Hand in hand, we walk the short distance home. Conversation comes and goes.
When I get home, Azusa is there. At school, Minamori is there and so are other people. Yorumiya doesn’t stick close to me at those times. When there is not much publicity, she has started to close the distance between us like this.
“Shuu-kun, do you wonder why we hold hands?”
I do. But I thought it would be wrong if I didn’t know what he was thinking, so I kept quiet.
“This is balance.”
“…… balance?”
“I need to replenish Shuu-kun ingredient.”
She grips my hand tightly. Yorumiya looks a little sulky.
I don’t really understand what balance is. I can imagine a tilted scale trying to balance itself. On one side is a mysterious component of me. The other side is a mystery.
In any case, I don’t mind being held by the hand.
“….. if you want to hold my hand, as much as you want.”
“Yes, thank you.”
The hand that was being held loosened slightly when I answered. The voice that she mumbled was also soft. The answer to this question is correct. Couldn’t I have said it better? I was thinking about that.
–After spending a few days like this, I finished the test.
The results were good.
Yorumiya was in the top of the class, Minamori did not get any red marks, and I was in a good position.
Minamori had turned in the test papers to the manager. They told her they would disclose it if she got a red mark, but I guess she was able to avoid it.
Everyone was having a good time in the youth of a student. I heard that they all studied for the test together.
I thought it was something like this ……, but before I knew it, things got a little complicated.
◇
Good morning, Shusuke.”
“Oh wow. Ayato…?
Good morning.”
When I went to school after the test, I was surprised to see Ayato suddenly appear beside me at the main gate. He is a man who appears and disappears from the world. There was no sign of him.
“What happened? I don’t think you’re usually around here.”
“I just thought I’d overhear something.”
“What”
“Shuusuke, have you noticed that you’re getting quite a lot of attention right now?”
Ayato said with a wry smile on his face. Attention?
But I do feel like the gazes of the class have been sticky lately. It’s like it’s a lot more humid, or like there’s a lot more resentment in it.
“Why?”
“Think about the people you’re with. Yorumiya-san and Minamori-san. They are with a person who is called a saint and an idol.
“That’s because of the seat change. ……”
“No.”
I assured him smugly.
However, I understand what you mean. It is true that recently I have been spending a lot of time with Yorumiya and Minamori. The reason why is because I was helping them study for the test. When we first switched seats, I tried to keep my distance from them because I sensed trouble, but now I don’t mind so much. This is because everyone’s priority is to avoid red marks
……What would happen if there was one boy who was somehow in close proximity to such a beautiful girl?
“So be a little careful. Well, I don’t think it’s going to be that hard.”
“…… got it. Thank you.”
Ayato waved his goodbye and left.
…It was true that exams were over, so it might be best to refrain from doing anything that could be misunderstood.
◇
The next day, I thought about it.
“Hey, Enami,……, lend me your face for a minute.”
I was called out by a classmate who was a bad type of person.
…… Really?
