Changing Wednesday.
Wednesday.
I finished breakfast alone, just as usual, left the house at the usual time.
I smiled at myself for trying to head to the usual meeting place when I got to the station closest to my high school.
I’ll have to get used to it little by little…
From today, my daily life without Ayaka starts.
When I arrived at school and walked into class, Sorahashi was visibly depressed.
Incidentally, I messaged Daichi and Sorahashi that we broke up yesterday.
I had a hunch that Sorahashi might be able to cheer up Ayaka.
Then, I received a message from Daichi.
Daichi: Hanashima is off today, and I’ve talked to Miku, so let’s talk on the roof at lunchtime.
Umi: Okay.
Today was overcast like yesterday, but there was no rain in the forecast, so I think we’ll be fine.
It was now noon, so I left the classroom and went to the rooftop.
Daichi was already there, so I called out to him.
“Yooo.”
“Supp.”
The two of us put our arms on the rooftop railing and looked out over the schoolyard.
There were a couple of guys playing soccer.
I wonder if they’ve had lunch.
“So you really couldn’t forgive her?”
“Yeah, I thought about it a lot, but I couldn’t.”
“Is it because of your parents?”
“Well… I guess.”
“I see… ah, It’s frustrating that I can’t empathize with you!”
“Haha! You’re a really nice guy.”
“I’m your best friend!”
“Empathy… hmmm… for example, what would you do if you saw Sorahashi and I kissing? Would you still be able to keep your relationship with her?”
“That’s… impossible…”
“Right?”
“I might rather bow down to you, Umi. I would cry and beg you to keep her happy.”
“Huh? What’s with that?”
“You’re the only one whom I can’t win against as a man. You might even make her happier than I ever could.”
Why is this guy thinking so highly of me?
“Don’t you like me a bit too much?”
“Well, if I were a woman, I’d choose you.”
“That’s disgusting!”
And we laughed about it.
I guess Daichi was trying to cheer me up in his own way.
If I were a woman, I’d be in love with this guy, too.
“Are you guys done talking?”
I found Sorahashi behind us.
I had something I wanted to talk to her about.
“Hey, Sorabashi, I have a question.”
“Hmm? What is it?”
“When a couple breaks up, is there any reason why the girl doesn’t feel bad?”
“You…!”
Daichi seems to have guessed, but I let him go.
“Uhmm… The other day, a girl who broke up with her boyfriend said he dumped her because she didn’t want to be with him and he wasn’t manly enough.”
“I see… it may not be Ayaka’s character, I’ll assume.”
“…Perhaps…”
“Well, I couldn’t continue being her boyfriend just because I can’t tolerate the act of cheating, but it doesn’t mean I don’t like Ayaka.”
So if anyone says bad things, it’s fine with me.
“Umikita-kun…”
“Damn, Again with Umi…”
“I know you guys can’t be friends as you always have been, but… Ahh, and don’t tell anyone why you guys really broke up.”
I said it because I believed they wouldn’t tell anyone, but I have to tell Amemiya.
After school.
While there were still quite a few people left in class, a guy I was close to there got involved.
Akeboshi Akifumi.
He has brown hair and undercut hair.
He’s sort of the representative of this class, a good-natured guy.
“Hmm? You haven’t gone back yet, Umi? Your girlfriend hasn’t come yet?”
He probably doesn’t know she’s absent.
Maybe it’s a good timing.
“Oh, actually, I broke up with her.”
“What!? Seriously?!”
Some of the chattering had stopped.
I think some of my classmates are listening in.
“I’m not very manly, you know? That’s why she gave up on me and dumped me.”
“Hahaha-, Shut up!!”
“Hahaha- Like hell!”
“So, what did you do?”
“Don’t ask me about that. It’s a matter of my character, you know?”
“Oh, well, I’ll throw a blind date for you next time if you’re so heartbroken.”
“No way, your blind date party is likely to be with gals.”
“I guess I need to start explaining to you the goodness of gals’ heart…”
“No, I’m not prejudiced against gals, but I don’t think I can keep up with their demands.”
What a silly conversation we’re having.
I haven’t shown any signs of depression either, and I’m sure I won’t get a bad name for it.
But he’s not seriously going to throw a blind date, is he?
