Episode 37 "Aggressive charlotte"
"Well, shall we go to school together?"
Just before I was going to seperate from her , Charlotte stopped me as she had a request.
"Yes ... No,wait.."
Charlotte got all red.
It also seemed that she was conscious of not seeing me, and her eyes were on my neck.
Well, what is this situation ...?
Why is Charlotte so red...?
And why is she so moody today...?
I was confused by the sudden situation and started observing Charlotte.
Charlotte was more cute than usual and staring at her made me feel weird.
My heart was beating harder at the unexpected invitation from her.
To be honest, I would have liked to accept her offer as it is-but there was a reason why I couldn't .
"Sorry, it would be a problem if someone will see us..."
Charlotte got a lot of attention because of her pretty appearance.
That might cause many rumors.
It might bother Charlotte in future , so I turned her down.
"It will be fine if we take a different route for school...wouldn’t it?"
"But ..."
( In your case, even if one person saw us, it’s game over…)
I tried to say that , but when I started the sentence with a negative word, I noticed Charlotte’s shrunken face, and swallowed the words.
I didn't know why she was inviting me.
But, I came to know that she really wanted to go to school with me through her disappointment.
The reason I refused to go to school together was because I didn't want Charlotte to be in trouble.
In the first place, I didn’t even know why she wanted to go along with me.
I haven't been able to ask her what she really thinks because I didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable.
One thing I knew for sure was that Charlotte really wanted to go to school with me, even if she has to be seen walking with me.
It would be hard to believe that she didn't understand what people think when two men and women walk together.
……………… Yeah, now various things as an excuse….I really wanted to go to school with Charlotte...
Being with her made me very nervous.
However, there was a feeling of happiness that was hard to put into words.
I was happy just to be together with her.
As Charlotte said, it might be okay to go with her to places where other students don't often pass by.
If something happened, we could make up some excuse like we just happened to run into each other.
In any case, Charlotte would be able to respond flexibly.......
This was a chance to get rid of the misconception that Charlotte is scared.
I couldn't miss this chance.
"Sorry, then let's go together until there is a lot of traffic."
As a result of worrying about what to do, I decided to take Charlotte's invitation and talked with a smile.
Charlotte looked at me with a puzzled expression, but after a few moments, her expression changed to one of shock and she hurriedly shook her face from side to side.
As I stared at her, wondering what was wrong with her, Charlotte ran her right hand through her hair, playing with them, and slowly opened her mouth.
"Oh, thank you very much……"
As she thanked me, Charlotte's expression turned into a shy smile, and I turned my head away.
"Well then, let's go ..."
I squeezed my voice out of my throat.
I wanted her to overlook my smug face.
"Okay……!"
Charlotte was happy that I agreed, so we started to walk towards school but-an unexpected event stopped my moving legs.
-yes,I don't know why, but right after I started walking, Charlotte grabbed the sleeve of my Clothes.
"Sha sha sha, Charlotte ...?"
"Ah ... well, that ... no, it wasn't ..."
When I called her out, She looked so upset that I couldn't help but look at her with an anxious expression on my face.
"No, it's fine..."
I can't say that I can't say that I can't make such an expression.
Naturally she nodded with an immediate answer.
"Ah--Thank you ...!"
When I agreed, Charlotte once again thanked me with a very happy expression.
Then, "Ehehe" she leaked a laughter like Emma , with a somewhat happy smile on her face.
I looked at her sideways and thought with a confused head.
(The difference in our distance from when she was a foreigner classmate to when we are friends is too great )
