After Being Betrayed by My Girlfriend, I Kiss Her Little Sister - Chapter 48

Disillusionment

Fuyuko’s POV

I don’t understand why she called me here…

Is she going to talk about Saito-kun again? I’m not an emotional trash can, and I don’t want to hear any more of Umi-chan’s stories. Most of what our classmates said is true, so I don’t understand why she’s trying so hard to deny it. What’s the point of doing that? Even if she tries, the way our classmates look at her won’t change.

The atmosphere in the classroom has changed.

You were always hanging out with Saito-kun, so isn’t it only natural things turned out this way, Umi-chan?

Talking to me about it won’t change anything.

“So…what is it you want to ask me?”

In the empty hallway, Umi-chan has the same smile on her face as she did back then.

The thing she wants to ask me is—

“Fuyuko-chan, you love Miyauchi, don’t you?”

“……”

“Why aren’t you saying anything? You still love him, right? Even now.”

“Not really…I’ve already given up on Miyauchi-kun. But why are you suddenly talking about him?”

“Fufu.”

She’s going to make me do something again, isn’t she?

Who is it this time? Hina-chan again? Or…Miyauchi-kun? I don’t know. I don’t understand why she makes me do those things. I don’t understand what’s so fun about it. Is it because she has something on me…and thinks I have no choice but to listen to whatever she says?

Terrifying.

She’s truly terrifying.

“Don’t be so nervous, it’s something simple. Inside Miki’s drawer, there should be the chocolate Miyauchi gave her this morning.”

“…eh?”

“Can you bring it to me?”

“That’s Hina-chan’s chocolate, right? Why are you casually asking me to take it?”

“Bring it to me, Fuyuko-chan. You love Miyauchi, don’t you?”

“……”

Umi-chan…she’s laughing.

I’m such an idiot. But I know exactly what I’ve done…and what I’ve lost because of it. That’s why, I won’t do anything like that ever again. I don’t want to be manipulated by Umi-chan any longer. Also…I still love Miyauchi-kun. I don’t think these feelings will change until we graduate.

But I can’t win against Hina-chan.

And I don’t want to fight with her either.

I just wanted to be good friends with Miyauchi-kun…and with Hina-chan too—

My love has failed.

My foolish choices have destroyed me…I got what I deserved.

“Umi-chan, do you want it? Miyauchi-kun’s chocolate.”

“No…I don’t want it. I just want you to enjoy it, Fuyuko-chan!”

“…eh?”

“What’s wrong? You love Miyauchi, right? And you still haven’t gotten any chocolate from him, have you?”

“I don’t want it…! I…”

“Then, is it okay if I tell Miyauchi about this? Fuyuko-chan, are you sure?”

“……”

As I thought…I’m just Umi-chan’s toy.

I don’t understand why she hates Hina-chan so much, but maybe it’s because she’s jealous? Because Hina-chan is getting along well with Miyauchi-kun? Lately, even our classmates have been teasing them a lot, and it seems like they’re subtly supporting them. Without realizing it, the two of them have become really popular in class.

Meanwhile, there are rumours circulating about Umi-chan.

I understand she doesn’t like that…but she was the one who bullied them, right? I just can’t understand it. That’s why I want to know. Why does she hate her so much? Also, what kind of person Hina-chan really is?

But Hina-chan is completely different from Umi-chan, she is cute, kind and cheerful.

Even though we were just practicing volleyball together, for some reason, I genuinely think it was fun.

“Stop it already…! What’s so fun in doing this, Umi-chan?”

“……”

“Just stop hurting other people! There’s no point!”

“No point…huh?”

“……”

“When everyone was bullying Miyauchi and he couldn’t do anything…you ignored him, didn’t you, Fuyuko-chan? Even though it all happened because of the photo you took…and now you’re saying you don’t want to hurt anyone? That’s funny, Fuyuko-chan. Also, you were the one who threw Miki’s uniform into the trash can, right?”

“T-That’s…!”

“Am I wrong?”

There is no point in arguing with Umi-chan.

I don’t understand why she loves to do things like this. But I don’t care anymore. I hate Umi-chan. If I don’t do something about this soon, I’ll just end up causing more trouble for those two again. In order to stop that…I have to change. I’d rather become a scum than let myself to be constantly manipulated by Umi-chan.

“Don’t forget, Fuyuko-chan, you’re a trash. Even though Saito got expelled, I can’t just pretend what you did never happened. But since you’re my precious friend, I won’t tell anyone. As long as you do what I say—”

“……”

“Don’t make that face. You’re making it look like I’m doing something bad here.”

“Okay. That chocolate…I’ll bring it to you.”

“And you’ll enjoy eating it, right? In front of me.”

“Yeah…”

“Don’t make that face, Fuyuko-chan. It’s just chocolate, okay?”

“Yeah. Then, I’m going back to the classroom now…”

“Thanks~♪”

I don’t care anymore…

I don’t want to keep this a secret forever either…and it’s true that I did something wrong.

I’m stupid, but at least I know I made a mistake…that’s enough. I don’t want to lie to those two anymore. Even if they never want to be friends with me, I’m prepared to accept that, because it’s all my fault.

“……”

I slowly let out a sigh and send a message to Miyuchi-kun.

‘Miyauchi-kun, could you come to the area with the vending machines on the first floor? I need to talk to you.’

Then, I clench my fists tightly. My hands are trembling so much…
