Buying a Weeping Girl Under the Wintry Sky, and Making Her Too Happy. - Chapter 54: Development.

Development.

“Uhmm…. Just to confirm, when you say you took her home, you mean you took her to her house, right…?”

“No, mi… Of course, I took her to her house.”

Careful, careful, careful. I should just say that I took Miyu, her home, not mine, just as Takemiya-san said. It’s funny to say that I took her home because she looked cold in the park, but it’s better than saying that I took her home. Whew… That was a close one…

“Why do you look like you are fooling us…”

“…Kazuya-kun’s an idiot.”

Apparently, I wasn’t fooling around at all… Well, what should I do? …The first priority is to make sure that they don’t find out that Miyu and I are living together.

This will not be revealed unless there is something wrong. The only thing that could cause some concern is Shinya’s carelessness, but I’m sure he’s not that stupid… I’m sure we’ll be fine, right?　

If so, the next important thing is to justify the odd behavior of taking her home because she looked cold in the park. If I don’t do this, I’ll be labeled a freak or a pervert. If I want to avoid this too, then… I’m sorry Miyu…

“…She was crying.”

“What?”

“Miyu was crying alone in the park…”

“Is that so, Miyu-chan?”

“Well… Yes.”

“What the hell happened?”

“I can’t give you the details, but she had a little trouble with her family…”

Miyu said it was a little, but in fact it was more than a little. There was no way a parent would abandon a child and it would just be a little. That’s why I promised to make Miyu happy.

However, I was worried that Miyu wouldn’t want to remember that time, so when I looked at Miyu, she smiled gently when I noticed that I was watching her.

“I’m all right now.”

It looked like Miyu was saying that to me, and it may be inappropriate, but seeing Miyu like that made me almost cry. These were not tears of sadness, but tears of joy.

At that time, Miyu was mentally trapped and looked like she was about to die, but now she is gradually able to put that day behind her. That is to say, she has grown up that much and is living in the present. I have seen Miyu since that time, and I was filled with something in my heart.

“Kazuya-kun? What’s wrong?”

“No, it’s nothing.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah.”

I drank out of my glass of water as if to deceive myself. Shinya and Takemiya also look at me curiously, but I feel saved by their kindness now that they don’t ask me anything.

“Well, then we started talking little by little.”

“I see. I see. Depending on how you look at it, it seems that Kuroshima-kun took advantage of Miyu-chan’s heartbreak, but looking at Miyu-chan now, she seems happy, and Kuroshima-kun really brought Miyu-chan her home with only good intentions.”

“Well, basically, Kazuya is a slacker.”

When Shinya said this, Miyu burst into laughter, saying things like, Yeah that true fufufu~

“Also, Takemiya-san. I’d like to ask you something.”

“I won’t.”

“What?”

“It pains my conscience to publish what I have just heard in the school newspaper.”

“I see… Thank you.”

I had the impression that Takemiya-san was a pain in the ass when she said that she would interview me, but I may need to change my mind about that. Even though she is a pain in the ass, she is basically a good person.

“However, it would be impossible for me not to write an article about the two of you, so I’m going to exaggerate a little bit about something other than what I just heard!”

“Well, I guess that much would be fine.”

“If there were girls who thought of making a move on Kazuya-kun with this, I think they would stop making moves on him with this.”

“Uhhh… Miyu-san? Was this your intention when you said you were going to do this interview?”

“Yeah. Now I can claim that Kazuya-kun is mine.”

Huh…. I don’t know how highly Miyu really thinks of me…. She’s even worrying about me, which she definitely doesn’t need to do.

Then a week later. There was a campus newspaper posted on campus with an article about me and Miyu.

“This is….”

“You’re over-exaggerating things here…”

The contents were so exaggerated and mostly false that Miyu and I were really taken aback. Miyu and I had never even been to an aquarium, but we pretended we had, and I tried to kiss her there but she rejected me.

huh… I want to beat the shit out of me for describing Takemiya-san as basically a nice person…
