My Yandere Girlfriend Is Obsessed With Me For Some Reason - Chapter 36

The store is already closed, and all the lights are off… Why is that person knocking? It should be obvious that we’re not open… Why do they keep knocking? I don’t understand. But I’m curious, so I went downstairs.

Thunder and heavy rain.

The weather today was really bad, but it led me to be with Ibuki-kun.

Yet, why disturb me this time…

“Wh-who is it…? The store is already c—”

And there stood a drenched woman outside.

She had a mask on… but her presence was intense, my mind went blank for a moment. Why did she come here at this hour? No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand, so I stayed still for a while.

Then, that person spoke.

Why… is she smiling?

“Um… Is there someone named Ibuki Ichinose here?”

“Yes? Do you know Ibuki-kun?”

“Yes. Even though the part-time job should have ended, he hasn’t come back, so…”

“Oh…”

Who is this person…? How does she know that Ibuki-kun is working here? But Ibuki-kun is sleeping upstairs now… Besides, I have many things I want to do with Ibuki-kun. Even if we are acquaintances, I wanted him to be in my room today.

Even after the kiss… I want to…

“Is he here?”

“N-no! After work, I went home right away!”

“Oh… Is that so?”

“Yes! Then…”

“Liar.”

“Huh?”

“He’s on the second floor, right? Ichinose-kun…”

“No! I-I went home! After work… immediately!”

“Can I check? I’ll leave right after confirming he’s not here.”

“No, that’s a bit much!”

Why is she so sure…?

Her face clearly showed she was certain he was here.

Normally, after saying “Is that so,” she should leave immediately… But this woman seemed convinced from the start that he was here. It’s scary. I need to do something about this woman quickly… She seemed like she might really come into the store.

If that happens, the chance will disappear…

I want to… I want to! With Ibuki-kun…

“I-I’ll call the police! He’s really not here! Ibuki-kun went home!”

“Fine. Let’s call the police!”

“What are you talking about!?”

What… that confidence.

“I am Ichinose-kun’s guardian. It’s natural to worry. What do you think, Kyoko Mizuhara?”

She even knows my name. Why!?

Who is this woman…?

“And Ichinose-kun’s location has already been tracked via GPS. He’s here, right? Why did you lie?”

“Uh, well…”

On the screen of the smartphone she showed me, Ibuki-kun’s location information was displayed.

Without a doubt, it’s our store.

When did she do that…? So… Ibuki-kun is living with this woman? I don’t like the way it sounds, but… even without seeing her face, I can tell from her aura.

This person is beautiful… on a different level from me.

And she says she’s a guardian, but she’s very young… Is she… his girlfriend?

I was shaking a lot.

Even if I pretend to call the police, it seems like it would be a big problem if I actually did. But even so, I didn’t want to tell this woman where Ibuki-kun was. I really didn’t know what to do.

What should I do…

“Please leave! He’s not here!”

“Then, I’ll… call the police. I need to tell the truth to those who keep lying until the end…”

“Huh? What…”

“What does it feel like to become a criminal?”

“N-no…! I-I… I just want to be with Ibuki-kun, I just want him to be by my side! Don’t take Ibuki-kun away from me!”

Just before dialing 110, I raised my voice to that woman.

“Poor thing… Even if you do that… Ibuki-kun won’t be interested in you, you know? Why don’t you understand? It’s too late, it’s already too late…”

“What…?”

“And, can you do something about your ex-boyfriend? How long will you let him use you? The guy who dated every girl who got close to Ibuki-kun, why is he supporting you? Don’t you understand?”

“… ”

“Because of your ex, you missed the chance to be with Ibuki-kun. You wasted time being deceived by your ex. And now, there’s someone cuter than you by Ibuki-kun’s side, so please give up. The possibility of you two being together is zero.”

“… No. Haruto is for me.”

“Hahaha, is that so? I like pure people. But because of that guy, you lost the chance to be with the most important person. His silly desires ruined your relationship. Your friends around you… they know that, right?”

Why are you saying such things to me…?

No. I’m with Ibuki-kun…

“So, did Haruto support our relationship because… he wants the girl by Ibuki-kun’s side now?”

“Correct~! If you date Ibuki-kun, that girl should lose her place. Then, you approach the girl who lost her place, listen to her, and so on… Make her your own. You should know that… You’re just avoiding it because Ibuki-kun is right in front of you.”

The way Haruto told Reina-chan… his dirty way.

The woman went upstairs, but there was nothing I could do.

“Who are you…? Were you sleeping here? Seriously…”

“… ”

“Oh, is it me? You probably already know…”

“No way… This voice… A-are you…Sensei?”

“Yes. Mizuhara-san.”

“W-why is Sensei… Ibuki-kun’s guardian…”

“There are some complicated circumstances I can’t explain right now.”

“This relationship is not good! A teacher having such a relationship with a student…”

“Hahaha, that’s true. But… is it okay to give someone sleeping pills and kiss them without permission, Mizuhara-san?”

Why… that.

“Why are you making that face? It’s clear when you look. I’m used to reading people’s minds…”

“… ”

“Oh, you unbuttoned it. Maybe you wanted to… have sex with Ibuki-kun?”

“… Th-that…”

“Is it okay to tell Ibuki-kun what happened today? Because it’s the truth.”

“T-that… That’s… If that happens… I-I won’t be able to… be friends anymore! Never… be friends forever.”

I was in a panic.

I had no idea what to do, and tears were the only thing falling on the floor.

I couldn’t compete with Reina-sensei… It’s scary, so scary…

“Oh, you wanted to be friends? Let’s do this then.”

“What…?”

“Forget everything that happened today. I’ll also pretend not to know what you did, so please forget today. Forever.”

There was no choice.

Just nodding.

“Then, I’ll take Ibuki-kun with me.”

“Y-yes…”

There was nothing I could do.

And Sensei was smiling until the end.
