A Childhood Friend, Reunited After 10 Years Acts Deredere With Me - Chapter 7 - It's impossible to tear the both of them apart

“Sora… why are you…”

“The door to the rooftop was closed. I climbed up from below.”

I didn’t think that the rock climbing I learned in elementary school would come in handy in a place like this. However, I’m scared to death because I climbed up without a lifeline, and I’m on wobbly knees.

But Alice’s face was stained with despair.

“…Did you hear?”

“Well, roughly.”

I even activated the camera on my phone to gather information, and I recorded the entire conversation. I stopped recording and throw the phone in my pocket.

“…How much did you know?”

“You were bullied in the US, judging by the garbage thrown at you and your comparison to the US. That’s pretty bad too.”

I knew that Alice would not believe me if I told her a lie, so I told her the whole truth. Then, Alice let out a sigh and looked somewhat relieved.

“You’re absolutely correct. That’s right. Using my desire to see Sora as a bargaining chip, I fled the United States…”

It was almost unconscious. I ran toward Alice and hugged her as hard as I could.

I knew that if I didn’t, Alice would break down.

“I don’t care if you don’t want to see me. It must have been hard for you. It was painful, wasn’t it? It’s okay now.”

“Why…why… I thought… you’d be disillusioned…”

“I’m sorry, but I’m not a jerk enough to be disillusioned by someone being bullied.”

“Stupid! Stupid!! stupid, stupid, stupid!” 

Alice found herself in tears. I held her trembling shoulders and quieted her down.

“I’m glad you made it on your own. It’s far from a relief…but I’ll be on your side next time.”

I know it’s a horrible line, but it’s the only thing I could think of, so please forgive me.

“If you say that to me…I will depend on Sora more and more…is that okay? I… still like Sora, even if I like him more.”

“…if I accept this, it’s going to be a confession.”

“Tehe, did I get caught?”

“Uoh…! You’re a ridiculous woman!”

She took advantage of this serious development and tried to get me to confess indirectly! That’s too much, this girl!

Moreover, I unintentionally moved away from Alice’s body. But Alice comes closer to me, wagging her hand.

“Fu fu fu… now that we’ve gotten rid of our ties in America, I can attack Sora without hesitation from now on, can’t I?”

“Hey wait… wasn’t that awesome before?”

She hugged me and cuddled me and cuddled me. All of that wouldn’t be done if you weren’t a lover, would it?

“What can I say! I’d even attack Sora in your sleep! And it’s jumped up to the level of forceful kissing!”

This girl…maybe she’s going to barge into my bath today. Let’s just take a shower and call it a day. Yeah.

Also, I know I’m skipping over this, but let me give a little advice to those three guys. I took out my phone and operated it for a bit.

“Man, The picture quality is really good, and the three of you guys look really good. The picture quality is super good, and I was able to get a good shot of the three of you. So here’s the deal. If you guys don’t want this video to be posted on the Internet, don’t ever get involved with Alice again. What do you say?”

I’ve already opened twitter and am on the brink of posting it. If I send it, this video will be floating in the sea of the Internet semi-permanently.

“H-Hah? You’ve got to be kidding me! Why do you have to do this to me?”

“You messed with my childhood friend. I’d rather be thankful that it’s only this bad. I don’t want to talk to you guys as much as possible. You have five seconds to make a decision. If you don’t, I don’t have to tell you, do I?”

After playing with their phones, the three of them pushed Alice aside, unlocked the rooftop, and walked out of there.
