CH 35

Today, as soon as I arrived at school, Hatsune had gone to the student council room, saying she had student council to do. There’s been a lot of student council work lately, what’s going on? As I was wondering about this, three bot came up to me.

“Oi.”

“Eh?”

Why are you so combative all of a sudden? What did I do? I just transferred to this school, so I don’t remember you holding a grudge….

“Um, what?”

“What are you doing talking to Shirayuki-san?”

“…Ha?”

Is Shirayuki-san….Hatsune? Why do they hate me so much for talking to Hatsune?

“Um, can’t I talk to her?”

“Ah, I see, you’ve just transferred here, so let me tell you something, it’s an unspoken rule in this school that you can’t talk to Shirayuki-san.”

“Eh, really?”

I’ve always been able to talk to her at school…Is it possible that the reason I can’t make friends is no only because Hatsune is jealous, but also because they don’t like me?

“Maa, that’s why you shouldn’t talk to her just because she’s sitting next to you.”

“Eh, y, yeah.”

I replied, and the three of them went back to their seats.

“…….”

What should I do, maybe I shouldn’t talk to Hatsune at school. If these guys found out that we were living together, it would be the end of my school life. I mean, I think Hatsune said something about dating me when I first moved to the school… Or was it passed off as a joke?

After a while, Hatsune returned. Let’s not talk to her for now. I’m sure I can explain it to her when I get home.

“So-kun, sorry for the wait! So, I need to talk to you about something.”

“…….”

Let’s just ignore her for now.

“So-kun?”

“……..”

This reminds me of the time when I moved here.

“Are you trying to ignore me again?”

“…….”

The reason is different from before, but now I’m in a situation where I have to ignore her…..

“….I see, then, I guess I’ll have to do it.”

“………!”

It’s definitely that. The video of me playing an 18 game.

“Ha, Hatsune…. I’m going to have a little talk with you during the next break, so just wait until then.”

I whispered in her ear.

“So-kun’s breath is in my ear…./// Y, yeah, I got it.”

I don’t understand the first part of the sentence, but well, I’m glad to hear that she’s okay with it. I’ll explain everything that happened during the next break.

Then, during the next break, Hatsune and I went to the rooftop together.

“So? What is it?”

“Oh, we shouldn’t talk at school.”

As soon as I suggested this, Hatsune’s face twisted.

“….Why?”

“No, I was told earlier in the morning that they don’t want me to talk to you, so I won’t talk to you at school, and we can talk at home——”

“I don’t like it, why do we have to be so sneaky?”

“Eh.”

W, well, yeah, but Hatsune is very popular, so it can’t be helped…

“I mean, who said that to you?”

“Eh? A, ah, the boys—–”

“They really don’t do much good, do they…..”

Then Hatsune said with a look of determination on her face.

“I understand, then wait until today’s fourth period, and I’ll make sure such a thing never happens again.”

“Wh, what are you—–”

“Then, I have some work to do.”

Saying that, Hatsune ran somewhere. ….What are you going to do?
