I Don’t Like Endings Where the Person who Cheats Gets Forgiven, so I Will not Forgive Her - Chapter 28

Confession

“Alright, that concludes the exam. Well done, everyone. Today, we’ll be dismissing early, but remember not to go to sketchy places just because you can leave sooner. Always strive to be a model student representing our school. That’s all, goodbye.”

With those words, the teacher leaves the classroom.

I get up from my seat and start to clean my desk.

Everyone else is talking about where they want to go or what they want to do now that the test is over, but I have no time for that.

The reason is clear, today I’m going to confess to Setsuna.

I’ve come to a conclusion and decided that I will confess my feelings to Setsuna once the test is over, so I’ve made sure to prepare in advance.

Yesterday, I told Setsuna that I want talk to her face to face after school.

Judging from the tone of our conversation yesterday, I think Setsuna has some idea of what I’m going to say today.

I don’t think she will reject me, but I still feel nervous.

Well, there is the option of confessing over a call or through messages, but I’ve decided to say it directly to her because I want to confess my feelings properly in front of her.

Perhaps due to nervousness, I find myself repeatedly wiping the same spot on my table.

What am I doing?

After cleaning my desk, I take a deep breath, calm myself down and head out of the classroom.

Then, I arrive in an empty classroom in the special building of our school.

It seems like I came a little bit too early, but…

“S-Setsuna?”

“Ah, Yukito. Good job on the test.”

Despite I came a little bit too early, Setsuna is already there waiting for me.

Although I’ve prepared myself mentally for this, I’m surprised because I was planning to come here early to calm myself down first.

“You’re early.”

“Ah, sorry. Did I come too early? But I came here early because I couldn’t wait to hear what you have to say, Yukito.”

“I-I see.”

Even though Setsuna says so shyly, she has a happy smile on her face.

Setsuna’s expression makes my heart skip a bit, and I instinctively look away from her.

Seeing my reaction, Setsuna seems to feel even more embarrassed, her face is blushing in red.

An awkward yet sweet atmosphere fills the air.

We exchanged meaningless words like ‘Ah…’ and ‘Yeah…’ for a while.

But after some time, we finally calmed down and we are ready to face each other.

I have been thinking about what to say and how to say it, but after that exchange, it feels unnecessary and silly to be so nervous.

I find myself to be able to talk casually.

“Setsuna.”

“Y-Yeah.”

Although Setsuna seems shy, she is looking at me in the eyes.

“I love you. Please go out with me.”

“Yeah, of course. I love you too, Yukito.”

The moment she says so, she comes to me and hugs me tightly.

Then, our lips meet with a soft sensation.

“Hmm…”

“Setsuna…”

“Ah…I might not be able to stop myself.”

We continue to kiss each other using our tongue passionately.

Normally, I would’ve just accepted it without ruining the moment, but…

“Setsuna, we can’t do this here. We’re at school. Someone might find out.”

“…I know. But I can’t hold myself back.”

When Setsuna says so with a sad expression on her face, my chest hurts.

I want to connect with Setsuna deeply right here and now.

I want to continue kissing her. I want more of her.

However, with strong self-control, I somehow managed to hold myself back.

“…my dad usually comes home around seven in the evening, and until then, no one will be home. Do you want to come over my place?”

“…yeah. Let’s go.”

As I hold Setsuna’s hand and about to leave the empty classroom, I suddenly feel someone’s gaze and look towards the door.

However, no one is there.

…was it just my imagination?

If someone had been watching, it would’ve been incredibly awkward to be caught in such a situation.

“Hurry up, Yukito. Let’s go, I can’t wait any longer. I love you so much, Yukito.”

“Yeah, let’s go.”

However, by the time we got home, I’ve completely forgotten about it.

Because, I’m enjoying myself with Setsuna right now.
