Meeting in Secret and Gaps.
Shizuki grabbed my arm and walked further and further into the school building towards the less popular areas.
We entered an empty classroom and closed the door from the inside.
Shizuki stood in front of the door with her hands on her hips, blocking the way.
The fact that she’s galring on me is still incredibly beautiful.
“Hasumi-kun….!”
“What is this going on?”
This situation, is it a confession?
I don’t think now that I’m a disciplined loner.
My whole life has proven that such a thing is impossible.
“You didn’t say anything about… yesterday…. to anyone? Did you….?”
Shizuki’s earlier vigor was gone, and she spoke in a fading voice.
I don’t know why, but her tone of speech has completely changed to a respectful one.
Perhaps because of this, the light atmosphere she had in the classroom was gone, giving her a timid and weak atmosphere.
Anyway, I knew you were going to talk about it.
This is the only point of contact between me and Shizuki, so it’s only natural.
“I didn’t say anything.”
“…..Is that true….?”
“Really, I haven’t.”
“Really, Really, Really?”
“Really.”
Even after hearing my words, Shizuki still had a suspicious expression on her face.
I’m not sure if Shizuki is being cautious or if she doesn’t trust me, or both.
“But today, ….you were talking to someone at lunch, right?”
“Lunch? Oh, you mean Haruomi ? I didn’t tell him anything either. I have a promise with you.”
Well, I’m sure that guy would be happy to know about it.
“Is it really the truth?”
Shizuki still seemed to have doubts.
I don’t know why I have to go through so much trouble to make her believe me.
“It’s the truth. It’s not like I have anything to gain by spreading the word.”
“So, but…… normally, one would give a condition to not to tell anyone, I think…”
You can see a hint of uneasiness on Shizuki’s face as she said this.
I see. That’s how it is.
Just as I don’t have the benefit of telling anyone, I don’t have any benefit of keeping quiet either.
That’s why Shizuki thinks she can get someone to keep quite more if she pays someone something.
Yesterday she was upset and didn’t pay that much attention to it, but today she was worried.
I guess that’s about it.
She was surprisingly cautious, or rather, she really didn’t want people to know what happened yesterday.
However, Shizuki is mistaken about one thing.
“I’m not going to do anything like that to you. Besides, if I were to spread the word about yesterday, I would incur the wrath of you and the people around you. Frankly, I don’t want that.”
“Eh…..”
“I’m a loner in my class and I’m not popular. But you’re different. I may not want to have allies, but I don’t have the guts to make enemies, I don’t.”
I don’t know if Shizuki is aware of her position or not.
But in my opinion, it’s a bad move to make enemies with the flamboyant girls and the countless Shizuki fans and then tell them about Shizuki’s secret.
“In other words, I don’t have any reason to threaten Shizuki. I’m not sure if you can believe me, but what I just said makes sense.”
“…..Hasumi-kun.”
Shizuki looked surprised and curious.
She pouted a little and crossed her arms as she turned over.
In Shizuki’s capable hands, such a gesture would look like a scene from a drama.
“I understand….. I believe in…. Hasumi-kun.”
“That’s great to hear.”
Phew.
I feel like I wasted a lot of time and effort, but it seems that she was convinced.
“…..Hasumi-kun, you are a little bit unusual, aren’t you?”
“I’m not unusual. There are not many people who are as ordinary as me.”
“See, you’re different after all.”
Shizuki chuckled for the first time.
I was serious, but she was rude.
“If you say that, then Shizuki is strange enough too.”
“What? Why is that….?”
“You’re always trying to hide the fact that you’re simple when you’re at home. Yes, it’s different from your image, but is it something you have to hide? It doesn’t seem like a big problem to me.”
Besides, I heard that there is a word called ‘Gap’ in the world.
It’s not always a good idea to have a gap, but if you’re as beautiful as Shizuki, most gaps can be a plus.
“….It’s very important for me.”
“….Hmmm.”
Shizuki seemed to have a serious expression on her face and clenched her fists tightly.
If she says so, I guess. But I’m not going to go any further in it.
I guess they have their own values that I can’t even begin to imagine.
“Oh, by the way, weren’t you going to a café today?
“How do you know that….!?”
“No, I’m sorry. You were talking in a loud voice during lunch break.”
If that conversation is true, you don’t have time to worry about me.
“Oh, that’s right….”
“You don’t want to go?”
“….It’s fine. It’s been canceled.”
“Change of plans?”
“….Yuka changed her mind. Those people ….no, we’re fickle, we’ve always been fickle.”
“I see.”
Well, it’s just like the Flashy Girls, I guess.
I don’t mind if they are fickle in their own way, but I don’t want to be in the position of being pushed around.
“Well then, guess I’ll go home now?”
“Ah, Hasumi-kun….!”
“Hmm?”
“Thank you very much. For not telling anyone.”
“No problem. I promised. Besides, I’m not going to talk about it to anyone.”
With that answer, I unlocked the door and left the classroom.
I guess this is the last time I’ll have this strange connection with Shizuki.
