I Don’t Like Endings Where the Person who Cheats Gets Forgiven, so I Will not Forgive Her - Chapter 15

Sharing Happiness

‘Good evening, Yukito. Are you free right now?’

“Yeah, I’m free.”

‘That’s good to hear. Um, about that…well, you know…’

In our conversation, ‘that’ refers to Yukina’s affair, and what happened to our relationship.

I haven’t told Setsuna that I broke up with Yukina.

But she probably has some idea when she saw Yukina’s reaction when came home though.

“I broke up with Yukina.”

‘I see…I had some idea when I saw Onee-chan’s reaction, but I still wanted to hear it from you, Yukito. I’m sorry, even though it must’ve been tough for you to talk about this.’

“No, it’s okay. I feel relieved after breaking up with Yukina. Thanks, Setsuna. I really appreciate you being there for me and listening to me. I’m so glad to have you around.”

‘Hmm!? I-I see. I’m glad that I can help you, Yukito.’

Honestly, I had been there alone at that time, it would’ve been so painful that I might’ve shut myself inside my room for the whole week.

On top of that, not just that day, but even afterwards, Setsuna keeps worrying about me.

…I probably shouldn’t compare them, but Setsuna is really different from Yukina.

Although they look alike and have the same voice because they’re twins, their personalities and feelings are completely different.

Setsuna is the kind of person who acts not for herself, but for others, for me.

She is incredibly kind…

She once said that she wanted to become someone like me, but I think Setsuna is even more mature than I am right now.

‘A-Anyway, Yukito.’

“What’s up?”

‘Umm…if you don’t want to, you can just say no, but…can we fall asleep together on a call like before…?’

I can’t help but think how cute Setsuna sounds, even over the phone, she is talking shyly.

It hasn’t been long since I decided to break up with Yukina, yet I’m starting to develop feelings for Setsuna.

Despite being cheated on, I thought that I would distance myself from romance for a while, but it seems like I’m starting to fall for Setsuna.

“…if you’re okay with it, Setsuna, I’d be happy to.”

‘R-Really!? Thank you. I was afraid you might refuse. I’m really happy.’

I can’t help but to smile at Setsuna’s joyful response.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Setsuna’s POV

I can’t stop smiling.

I’m really happy that Yukito agreed to be on the phone with me all night long.

I’ve always wanted to do this.

Because Onee-chan is always in front of me, I couldn’t do it with Yukito.

I had given up on Yukito. I’ve suppressed my feelings towards Yukito for so long.

Hah…but the expression on Onee-chan’s face when she came back.

She looked extremely sad.

I have no idea why she looked so sad.

She is the one who cheated on Yukito.

Yukito has suffered more than she can imagine.

Onee-chan trampled on my feelings of love and disregarding Yukito’s affection towards her. Ignoring Mom and Yuito-san’s support.

The past few years have been much more painful for me, I wanted to cry.

As time passes, my feelings towards Yukito grows, yet I couldn’t approach him.

I’ve refrained from getting too close to him, wishing for Onee-chan and Yukito’s happiness.

Even though I yearned for Yukito’s love so much…

I almost feel like storming into Onee-chan’s room out of jealously and anger, but listening to Yukito’s voice calms me down.

“Yukito, if you’re sleepy, just hang up the call.”

‘No, you can hang up first, Setsuna.’

“I won’t sleep until Yukito does.”

‘I won’t sleep either until Setsuna does.’

“I definitely won’t sleep.”

‘Neither will I. Hahaha.’

“Fufufu.”

I can’t help but to laugh. Yukito is usually a calm and serious person, hearing him being so stubborn about something so trivial is amusing.

Ah…I’m really happy.

Yukito, I love you. I really love you.

I truly feel fortunate to be a normal person who can find happiness even in small things like this.

After that, we talked late into the night.

I’m really happy to be able to talk with Yukito like this, even it’s just about casual and trivial stuff.

I hope this happiness reaches someone.

Yeah…hopefully, the cheerful and happy voices of Yukito and me, set up on the speakers, can be heard by Onee-chan next door.
