Is it okay for a loner like me to have a yandere?

After everything that happened last night, I could barely sleep.

Suzune-san declared herself as my girlfriend in front of Yuki… there’s no way she was just trying to help me out. I’d be lying to myself if I thought that.

First, her strange behavior. Then, she told me how much my words meant to her. And finally, that bold announcement. When I put all of that together, I can’t help but wonder…

…does she have a crush on me?

I know it sounds crazy. She’s beautiful and rich, and we’ve been apart for so long. Why would someone like her suddenly fall for someone like me?

But with so many signs, can I really pretend I don’t see it?

I don’t want to be like those clueless main characters in the light novels I read. When a girl is clearly trying to be a part of your life, how can you not think she might like you?

With those thoughts running through my head, I went downstairs.

Mom had called me this morning, saying they reached the resort around midnight. She also sent me a bunch of pictures—it looked huge, fancy, and really expensive.

They seemed happy.

I slowly walked into the kitchen, and what I saw made me stop for a moment.

It was such a peaceful scene that I just stood there and enjoyed it.

Suzune-san was moving around in the kitchen, making breakfast while humming to a sweet tune.

I was mesmerized by the sight of her wearing an apron over her clothes, moving her head side by side slowly, and enjoying herself in the kitchen.

The sudden urge to grab her in a hug was born in my chest. But to save myself from being called a pervert, I held myself back.

“Morning,” I called out as I took a dining chair and faced her.

She spun on her feet, surprised, “You woke up early today?”

I wryly smiled, “I wake up early generally. That day was an exception.”

She giggled, “You have bed hair,” she said before approaching me.

Standing inches away she started to smoothen out my hair.

A citric flavor today. Why does she always have such a good fragrance?

Her thin frame, supple skin, and hot breath were making my mind numb.

I lowered my eyes and waited for her to finish with my hair.

Just then, I heard a whisper, “You can hug me as a thank you.”

I flinched and then looked up.

She was smiling teasingly.

I could have just pretended it was a joke…but…

“Then, here you go,” I said and pulled her for a hug.

“Ah.” She helped very softly, and her body froze.

She didn’t resist but didn’t move either.

Just as I expected she felt soft and warm. So fragile that it felt like a little more strength might break something in her.

We remained like that for a few moments before parting away.

I slowly looked up, hoping that she wouldn’t end up slapping me.

But the sight that awaited was more mesmerizing than before.

A blushing Suzune-san stood there, her eyes moist and hot breath seeping through her lips.

So erotic.

She suddenly turned away, breaking my daze before I heard her saying, “Pervert.”

“E-Eh? But you said it was okay?”

She didn’t say anything and returned to the kitchen.

I knew she wasn’t mad, or her reaction would have been violent…not lewd.

I just…remained sitting there.

There was silence between us but it was not awkward.

I just kept staring at her and I never got bored. What is this? Am I falling for her?

Soon, she walked out while holding a few dishes.

“Hmm~you can cook well,” I said as soon as my eyes landed on the meal.

Omelet rice, soup, and something she made with tofu.

She didn’t respond and just stood there.

I glanced down and found her small hands clenched in fists.

O-Oh…she was waiting for my feedback.

I hurriedly scooped some omurice and placed it on my tongue.

Chewed it a couple of times before praising her, “Hundred out of ten. Truly amazing.” I gave her a thumbs up.

She smiled happily, “It isn’t too salty right?”

“Nope. You can trust me to give you an honest review. You can ask Mum.” Gave another thumbs up. The food was spot on, just as I like.

She also sat down, resting her chin on her palm as she said, “I know you can be brutally honest…” With a teasing smile, she added, “…just how you were honest with your desires now.”

“…” I chose my right to stay silent and focus on the rice.

Early morning, she is not good for my heart.

Soon, I finished breakfast and got ready for school. It was nearing seven, and I had about fifteen minutes to get there.

“Okay then, I will be going,” I said near the doorsteps as I slid into my shoes.

“See you soon,” she said making me blink.

I turned towards her and said, “You know I will be back around three right? You won’t get bored?”

She shook her head, “I will see you soon.”

At that time I didn’t understand what she was saying…but when I saw her standing beside the teacher, I realized what she meant.

“Students, please welcome our new transfer student, Takahashi Suzune. I hope you’ll assist her in getting familiar with the school and making new friends.”

This is the third time my crush has joined the same school as me.

Is this…going to end the same way?
