Chapter 7 – Himeka’s Great Idea
Feeling awkward in the classroom, I hurriedly finished my lunch and decided to leave the classroom to look for Moriyama-kun.
First, I went to the courtyard.
There were a few groups, but no Moriyama-kun.
Next, I went to the library.
Likewise, several students were sitting and reading, but Moriyama-kun was nowhere to be seen.
And soon, I hit a dead end.
Maybe he’s in his clubroom?
What club is Moriyama-kun in…?
In the first place, why isn’t Moriyama-kun in the classroom today?
Even during breaks between classes, he was gone in no time.
C-Could it be that…he’s avoiding me???
But it makes sense…
If a girl suddenly kicked you in the face, you would normally feel uncomfortable and wouldn’t want to go near her.
I’m such a violent woman, no wonder he hates me.
Although I had never paid attention to Moriyama-kun before, I found myself surprised at how shocked I was to think that he might have disliked me.
Why am I so shocked…?
I just spoke to this boy for the first time yesterday.
But if I become timid at this point, I won’t be able to properly apologize to Moriyama-kun no matter how much time passes.
I have to do something.
If he’s avoiding me, I can tell him how I feel by messaging him on my phone, but I don’t even know his contact details…
Ah! Yes!!!
A letter!
Maybe a letter could manage to get the message across!
If I’m not mistaken, there should be a piece of writing paper in the student council room.
With that in mind, I hurried to the student council office, got some letter paper, returned to the classroom, and began to write a letter.
I apologized and thanked him for yesterday.
I included that I had been learning karate since childhood and was confident in my skills, so I intended to fight off the prowler, not Moriyama-kun.
And also, excuses for all the other things I’ve done.
I wrote that I would like to apologize and thank him again, and I would like to know his contact details and address.
And that I don’t want him to avoid me and to be my friend if possible.
At the end, I wrote my phone number and chat app ID.
I continued to write the letter secretly after the fifth period started.
It’s three sheets of letter paper, but there are so many things I wanted to say that I just couldn’t resist the temptation to make it this long.
The letter I wrote could not be handed in the classroom because of the publicity, so I secretly slipped it into Moriyama-kun’s shoe box during the break before sixth period.
During the sixth period class, I was worried about whether Moriyama-kun would read the letter I had written, and that was all I could think about. Gradually, I began to regret that the letter might seem like a love letter, and the content of the class did not enter my mind at all.
But I really wanted to make sure he received my letter, so when homeroom was over and it was time to go home, I was the first to go to the front door and hide to check on him, making sure Moriyama-kun noticed my letter and put it in his bag.
When Moriyama-kun noticed the letter, he looked so flustered and seemed to be fidgeting around, which was kind of cute.
