Episode 26 – Smiling Rika 2


Iโ€™m Tired of My Childhood Friend Playing Pranks on Me, so I Want to Date a Female Friend Who Loves Me Sincerely


The morning classes went smoothly. The usual schedule of math, Japanese, physical education, and social studies.

Math really isn’t interesting, is it? As a pure liberal arts student, I can’t understand math at all. In science, I’m perfect at memorization other than calculations.

I hate math because even if I memorize it, if it’s twisted a little, I don’t understand anything.

In social studies, there’s only one answer, so it’s easy to memorize.

โ€œAyato, would you like to eat with me?โ€

โ€œEh, uh, yes.โ€

โ€œWhat’s wrong? Is it so strange for us to eat together? If you think so, I’m a little hurt.โ€

โ€œNo, I’m happy.โ€

I eat lunch with my friends during lunch break. It’s just a page in my youth, and my brain has stopped working. Normally, I would be with my girlfriendโ€ฆ or something like that.

Well, needless to say, I think I’ve only eaten with Rika a handful of times since becoming a high school student.

I wonder what Rika will do from now on. All the cool guys she was close with have dropped out.

But no, it’s Rika. She’s very sociable, so she’ll make new friends.

We’ve always been from different worlds.

โ€œFufu.โ€

โ€œWhat’s with that laugh? It’s weird.โ€

โ€œUuu.โ€

I laughed through my nose without thinking, and Nagiri gave me a cold stare. That kind of stare from a beautiful girl isn’t so badโ€ฆ ahem.

Then Nagiri took me to the group of girls she always hangs out with.

โ€œLet me introduce you. These are my friends, Kawakami Kiara and Dommae Nozomi.โ€

โ€œNice to meet you~. What’s your name?โ€

โ€œNice to meet you. My name is Dommae.โ€

โ€œNice to meet you. My name is Etsuki Ayato. I’m sort of a friend of Nagiri’s.โ€

In front of me were Kawakami, a gal, and Dommae, a neat and clean-looking beautiful girl.

Although neither of them could compare to Rika and Nagiri, they were popular with the boys.

The three of them, including Nagiri, were said to be the top three in the class. I don’t know the truth because I don’t have any male friends.

โ€œWhat do you mean, โ€˜sort ofโ€™? If anything, she’s more than a friendโ€ฆ Not yetโ€ฆโ€

โ€œWhat?~ You call her Nagiri. Nagiri clearly gets upset when boys call her by her first name.โ€

โ€œEh, Really?โ€

It’s true that Nagiri is popular with boys, and I often see them calling her by her first name in class, but I feel like it’s only the girls who call her by her first name.

โ€œYes, I’m a little interested. Let’s eat together quickly.โ€

โ€œI’m curious too. A boy introduced by Nagiri, who hates men. This is a side dish, heheโ€ฆ Oops, excuse me. I’m having a seizure.โ€

Eh, Dommae sanโ€ฆ No, no, that was just my imagination. A neat and clean girl like her would never say โ€œheheโ€โ€ฆ

“Come on, let’s eat quickly. Ayato, sit down quickly.”

โ€œAh, yes.โ€

As I was about to sit down at the seat prepared for me at Nagiri’s urging, the front of the class became a little noisy.

โ€œRikaโ€ฆ?โ€

Rika entered the classroom without permission, looked around the class, and when her gaze met mine, she skipped over to me deliberately.

โ€œLet’s eat together. My darlingโ™กโ€
