The S**ttiest Gyaru in the Class Confessed to Me
“Y-yo.”
I, the nameless classmate, greeted Mio.
“Mio, sit here ! !”
Ichika immediately offered her a seat next to her.
Nice one.
It was an unexpected encounter, but if we missed this chance, she might start to suspect something. If we were not careful, we might end up losing by default before the next day even came.
I gave Takashi a wink, and he winked back at me.
……We have no choice but to do it now.
Mio said as soon as she sat down.
“So, what were the three of you doing tomorrow?”
Here it comes.
The more time that passes, the more disadvantageous it will be.
We must attack as fast as we can.
I looked at Takashi.
He was clutching the belt of the bag he had slung over his shoulder.
That’s right.
He’s scared.
And he was losing the battle.
Even if we attacked her quickly, it would be impossible for him to confess to her from this point on. I had to make some kind of chance.
“Hey……”
“Um.”
Almost at the same time I opened my mouth, Ichika started to talk.
I see.
It’s true that you, her friend, should be the one to create an opportunity rather than me. This is a team game.
(Okay, I’ll leave it to you.)
I made eye contact with her, and she gave me a thumbs-up.
“Y’see, Mio…….”
All three of us looked at her.
“You see, actually, I’m dating Sou ! ! Sou is the classmate in front of me right now. I’m sorry I couldn’t bring myself to tell you.”
That’s right, Ichika.
Thank you for your explanation…but that’s not right ! ! That’s not what we should be talking about here ! !
Mio widened her eyes.
Of course.
Her best friend (probably) had declared a relationship with a nameless mob guy.
“Huh? Eh? Eehh. What a surprise ! ! Seriously? Which one of you confessed your feelings? Or perhaps it was because of that punishment game?”
Ichika and Mio were so excited.
And so, the reason for this was lost forever, and I finally learned the sad truth about the “punishment game.” It seems that it was something that Mio, Ai, and Ichika did together.
…….
Not that ! !
It’s Takashi’s turn now ! !
When her eyes met mine, Ichika made a proud face.
Today’s Ichika is too powerful.
…..Maybe I exaggerated when I said cute.
I should have indulged a little more.
After all the excitement, Mio said.
“I’m actually here with my sister today. I think she’ll be back from the bathroom soon. Well, I’m gonna go now.”
Ah. It’s over.
She’s leaving.
“Um ! !”
As Mio tried to stand up, Takashi stood up first. The chair fell backwards with the force of him standing up, and a loud clang sound was heard.
The buzz in the store instantly stopped.
The belt in Takashi’s grip became more and more distorted with the effort.
I felt the urge to stop him.
Because of course he was going to lose.
But even I, a mob, know that he shouldn’t do that.
I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.
If you’re going to hate me, hate Ichika.
Takashi put pressure on his trembling lips and opened his mouth wide.
“Um. Um ! ! Iijima san ! ! I like you.”
That’s all Takashi could muster.
Deliver it ! !
Then Mio scratched her temple.
“Erm. I can’t quite understand what you’re saying, but, um. I mean, you like me.”
Miura close his eyes and continued.
Her brows were slightly furrowed and she looked a little displeased.
“…So, the three of you were discussing it together.”
Mio looked at me and Ichika alternately.
Ichika shook her head vigorously from side to side.
You traitor.
I, as a mob, would have shaken my head too if she did that.
Ba-dump.
Mio sighs a little and gives Takashi an appraising look.
“So, Inaba kun? What do you want with me?”
(Mio san. His name is Aiba kun…..)
“W-w-well, that’s it. I’d like to go out with you.”
“No, you know what? You and I have very little contact with each other. Why?”
Mio sighs again.
“….This is called intimidation.”
And then this one word.
She clasped her hands together several times on the table and rephrased her words.
“Do you know what my type is? It’s a little different from you.”
“But I like you ! !”
“No, I mean… I guess you won’t understand unless I tell you clearly. But, no matter how I think about it…”
I only know one word that begins with “no” to use in this situation.
It’s ‘impossible’.
“Onii chan ! !”
It was sudden.
Suddenly, I heard a little girl’s voice.
I guessed it was Mio’s sister, the one I mentioned earlier.
But Onii chan?
Isn’t Mio the older sister?
The girl ran up to Takashi and held his hand.
“I knew it, you’re definitely the same guy from back then ! Umm, does your leg still hurt because of Rio? I’m sorry.”
The girl, who was in her early elementary school years, was called Rio.
“Eh? Rio. What does that mean?”
Mio seemed to have no idea.
“You see, Onee chan. He’s the one who saved me when I was nearly run over by a truck ! ! Are you bullying him, Onee chan? I’ll never forgive you.”
Mio finally understood what was going on.
“Eh? You were the one who helped Rio when she was nearly run over? Is that why you weren’t there since the entrance ceremony? You never told anyone about it.”
Takashi scratched his nose.
“Well, that’s not something you should tell other people, right? I didn’t want to stand out so soon after entering school.”
Mio shook her shoulders and whispered.
“That is. You really are a hero of justice.”
Mio held Rio’s hand and continued speaking.
“I’ll think about what you said earlier. I don’t know how it will turn out, but I will think about it.”
With that, she walked out of the store.
“…..Haa.”
Takashi sighed loudly and sat down in his chair.
“Seriously, my hands are still shaking. Am I going to get rejected?”
I don’t know.
Mio’s eyes. They were completely different from before.
Then, for some reason, Ichika made a peace sign.
“Hmph. It’s exactly as I planned it to be.”
No, you didn’t contribute anything.
He hasn’t even worn the clothes you picked out for him yet.
Takashi went home first and left me alone with Ichika.
“Hey, Ichika. What do you think will happen to Takashi?”
“Hm. Well, I guess it’ll work. If you’re curious, why don’t you ask Miou?”
“No, I don’t have to do anything.”
I decided to ask her about something that bothered me earlier when we talked about the punishment game.
“You know, the reason you kept your relationship with me a secret was because you were embarrassed that a random guy like me is the target of your punishment game, right?”
Then Ichika shook her head.
“It would be a shame for Sou if everyone knew he was dating a bitch like me.”
“I see.”
I felt an indescribable pitifulness. I felt like crying.
I’m still not ready for it and can only think about myself.
Ichika’s shoulders were slumped.
“You know what, Ichika.”
“What?”
Hey, Ichika.
You’re not so confident, are you?
Just like me.
That’s why I have to put it into words.
“You’re the cutest girl in the world ! ! I want to brag about it to everyone.”
She smiled.
“That’s a given ! !”
“Let’s go home.”
The two of us walk along the usual tree-lined path.
It looks even more beautiful today.
Now.
…After this, Takashi beat me to it in terms of his first experience, and I ended up having to listen to him boast about it every day.
That’s a story for the not so distant future.
