After My Girlfriend Dumped Me and I Got Fired From My Job, I Was Picked up by a Yandere Blonde High School Girl With Big Breasts - Chapter 51

I Reunited with My Ex-Girlfriend

Even if I keep stagnating forever, time does not stop for me.

Even in this worst half-hearted state, I have to go to school and fulfill my work duties.

Is it okay to go to a girls’ school in this condition? I am probably the type of guy who should never be allowed in a girls’ school.

Even while thinking that, I have to go to school. That is my job.

I wait with Kaede-chan in her uniform in front of the house gate for the car to be ready.

“Ryokun, you have had a gloomy face the whole time. Is something troubling you?”

“…!”

I thought I was hiding it, but I figured Kaede-chan would notice.

It is not really a trouble, just my lowest selfishness. I absolutely cannot say this. Because I do not want to hurt Kaede-chan. No, that is an excuse. I am just scared and running away. I am afraid of possibly losing this sweet life now.

“Did Grandpa say something to you?”

“!”

“Ah, bullseye, huh?”

Of course Kenzou-san said something, but this is my own problem where I cannot forgive myself.

“Grandpa is strict and impatient, so he probably has thoughts about our current relationship, but I am happy as it is. Having Ryokun by my side—there is no greater happiness than that.”

“…Kaede-chan…”

“Don’t rush so much. No need to hurry; take it slow and steady. I will walk slowly with you too.”

Kaede-chan is really kind.

That kindness makes my guilt even stronger, but I still end up relying on that kindness no matter what. No matter how strongly I think I cannot rely on it, I want to keep relying forever. That is Kaede-chan’s love.

Take it slow and steady without rushing…

If I think about it slowly and carefully without rushing, my trouble assumes from the start that I can get back with Unma.

Continuing the master-servant relationship with Kaede-chan and living like a kept man while secretly getting back with Unma without getting caught—that is when I would truly become the lowest. If I hate myself, I should hate myself after it actually happens.

Do I think that will happen? Do I seriously believe that could happen? The chance of a meteor falling is probably higher.

I am the one who loves Unma one-sidedly; Unma has long lost her love for me and thrown me away. In Unma’s mind, things with me are completely over.

Unma has probably forgotten about me long ago and is happily with someone she likes.

Thinking I love both and cannot choose, worrying about cheating and being the worst—my stupidity is insane. If there is no chance of getting back together, there is no cheating or anything.

Thinking that way somehow makes me angry. Unma has forgotten me, so why do I have to remember her?

I want to stubbornly forget about Unma too. I want to erase that woman who threw me away from my memory as soon as possible, even if just one day sooner.

Kenzou-san will probably scold me, but I have no choice but to take time slowly and gradually forget Unma, even if I cannot forget right away.

Well, that just brings me back to square one, so nothing changes from what I have been doing.

I will forget. It is okay; someday I will surely forget.

We live in different areas now anyway, so we probably will never meet again. If we do not meet, I will forget eventually. So it is okay.

Finally, I felt like I had put a period on my feelings.

—Vroom…

…Huh? What?

Car sound?

A car is coming this way. It is not the Nakajo family pickup car. The car coming is quite luxurious, but the Nakajo family car is even more luxurious.

The color is different anyway. It is not the usual pickup car I ride in—what is that car? Why is it coming here?

That car stopped in front of the Nakajo house gate.

“Kaede-chan, this car is…?”

“Hmm, I don’t know either. What business do they have with our house… When we have visitors, we are supposed to get proper notice, but I haven’t heard anything.”

Kaede-chan does not know either. We were waiting for a car, but not this one.

The windows are smoked glass, so the inside is hard to see. It is unclear from outside who is riding in it.

The driver’s seat door opened with a click.

I stiffened with a jerk, and Kaede-chan braced herself warily.

The moment the door opened, I knew it was a woman sitting in the driver’s seat.

Red high heels, short tight skirt. Overall stylish clothing.

Hm…? This outfit looks somehow familiar… but plenty of people have similar outfits, so maybe no need to worry…

That woman was a bit taller than Kaede-chan, with short black hair and wearing sunglasses.

…Short black hair… same hairstyle as Unma…

…Wait wait, no way… that cannot be… right…?

No, at this point my brain already understood who the woman in front of me was. It understood but desperately denied it.

No way… that cannot be. There is no way she would appear here. Different, different.

The woman took off her sunglasses.

Sharp eyes, long eyelashes. They proved my brain was right.

“—Unma…?”

The woman in front of me was definitely my ex-girlfriend, Takai Unma.

We dated for seven years, so no way I could mistake her. I can say with certainty it is not someone else. Unma. It is Unma.

Why. Why here…? This is in front of Kaede-chan’s house. Unma has no reason to come here…!

Even thinking she cannot be here, everything about me asserted this woman was Unma. Even wondering why she was here, she was here.

“—Ryoma…”

Unma looked at me with her sharp eyes, called my name, and smiled faintly.

Her red lips curved up slightly. Unma’s lips matched my memories scarily well.

“Unma…? Why…!?”

“Ryoma, I missed you.”

Hug!

“!?!?!?”

Unma hugged me.

The feel of my ex-girlfriend after so long. The sensation I remembered well from hugging her many times. It existed right now in this moment.

—The instant Unma hugged me, it felt like only this spot was enveloped in a pitch-dark world of darkness.

The weather had not worsened. It was clear outside. But black, dark air that did not suit this good weather at all existed only around here.

A pitch-dark world of darkness. I had experienced this world many times.

It was Kaede-chan. The world inside Kaede-chan. Darkness that seemed to reflect the inside of Kaede-chan’s heart overflowed from Kaede-chan’s body.

The instant Unma hugged me, I glanced at Kaede-chan for just a second, but even that quick glance made chills run through me nonstop from the negative emotions surrounding Kaede-chan.

Her eyes were blacker than her usual pitch-black pupils, perhaps the blackest in the world—Kaede-chan’s eyes.

Her golden hair fluttered softly in the gentle breeze, which suited it well and highlighted the overwhelming beauty of those dark eyes, but that made it all the more terrifying.
