EROI !! —— no, wait it’s… EMOI !!!
After my solitary show was over, I returned to the classroom, citing a good reason: I was overcoming a stomachache.
The teacher was suspicious of me at first, but the fact that I had gone to the bathroom in the first period helped me out, and as a result, I escaped without getting scolded for it.
As I walked back to my seat, I took a quicky glance at Iori.
” —- !?”
As soon as Iori’s eyes met mine or rather just at the moment it was about to meet mine, she turned her face away from me with an excessively forceful gesture.
“What happened? Iori.”
“Eh? Ah, umm! nothing at all!”
Saying her concerned friend, who asked her if she was alright, as nothing serious, and Iori laughed deceptively. It was plainobvious that she had conflicting feelings going within her.
—- and the one also seems to shift her attention from me as —- nah, she’s not.
I returned my gaze to the front and looked at Minamisawa this time. She was sitting in an exemplary posture, staring straight ahead with a mechanical pencil in her hand. Her whole body was as if saying, ‘Hurry up and start the class again.’
They are so polar opposites, I thought as I sat down.
Incidentally, Minamisawa did not touch my my meat even once during this class.
Guh, No, it doesn’t mean that I’m feeling depressed about it, you know!
———-
“Say, Minamisawa …, can I talk to you for a minute?”
As soon as we entered the recess period, I called out to Minamisawa.
“……………….”
But there was no reply. Minamisawa was silently preparing for the next class.
“I’d like to ask you about a few things.”
“………………””
“Um, MOshi~ MOshi?”
“………………”
“Is my voice coming through to you?”
“………………”
Not responding to my words until the end, she just held her textbook and walked out of the classroom.
I, I just don’t get it.
It was frank observation. I wasn’t supposed to be ignored right now in any way. But the actual fact remains, that I had been ignored.
They say that a woman’s mind is like the autumn sky, but the season of autumn leaves is still a long way off, okay?
I tried to make it look funny in my mind, but in reality, I was just that much in shock. There is no man who does not feel depressed when ignored by a girl.
But still I was not discouraged. Why you ask? That is because, I wanted to find out.
Next up are, electives huh. If I remember correctly, Minamisawa had music as an elective ……, I believe.
I left my notebooks of the previous class on the desk as it was, and went after Minamisawa.
———-
I stepped into the music class that was located at the easternmost end of the third floor.
There, there she is!
Minamisawa was sitting in the last row by the window. The way she stared blankly out of the window with her cheekbones on her hands was kind of sad or perhaps emoish.
But still, to not even give a single glance towards me at all, isn’t that just too awful? Just how much uninterested are you with me?
As I cussed at her inwardly, I walked my way over to Minamisawa.
“Hey, ~he, ~hey, HEY! Don’t you think you’re ignoring me way too much? Think about how fragile is the high school boy’s heart now, will you?”
I stood in front of her and forcefully asserted my presence.
“What is it, and that creepyness of your voice?”
Minamisawa, who slowly lifted her gaze and caught me in her eyes, returned it in a very laid-back manner.
“Haaah, of course it heard disgusting. After all, I said it like this on purpose to make it sound disgusting.”
“Why?”
“It’s a kind of hiding my embarrassment. So that you don’t find out how much I felt hurt being ignored by you.”
“…………I see.”
“Umm, excuse me …………”
And then what comes next was an awkward silence.
Saying so myself, I was expecting 『 If you say it by yourself, it has no meaning at all! 』a lighthearted retort like that but, … It seems that I chose the wrong person in expecting that kind of retort.
“What is it?”
It was even coming in her expressions, Minamisawa looks at me with a quizzical look on her face.
“Nope, nothing at all.”
“And so, I somehow faked a response, and tried to get back to my previous topic at hand.”
“Rather, now you can speak normally huh.”
“Is that bad?”
“Not bad at all? But then, why did you ignore me completely in the classroom back then?”
“… I get uninterested in having a conversation when there are people around …….”
“Why now?”
“It doesn’t matter, does it.”
While saying that thing, sighing in boredom, MInamizawa continues with a completely disinterested look on her face.
“Moreover, isn’t there something you want from me now, don’t you?”
“Those things, don’t you know about that in the first place. Don’t make me put that into words, it’s really embarassing.”
“Not at all, I don’t even have the slightest idea of what you are talking about. That is why, why don’t put that into words, and say that to me properly?”
Thi, THIS DEMON …..
As if it were a matter of course, Minamisawa, who had cutting the rope as it were only normal, looked at me in silence and asked, ‘What’s the matter?’ Tilting her head at me. With that stubborn attitude, it was as if she was saying, Is she showing her stubborn will that, ‘No matter how hard you try, I’m not going to say anything about that out from my mouth.’
“Chin …. you know ri~ght, that thing …. the thing of mine, which you were constantly playing with, while class was going on, remember?”
“Who was?”
“IT WAS YOU GODDAMNIT! DON’T PLAY DUMB!”
When I pointed that out straight, Minamisawa chuckled.
“I was joking.”
“So, now you are making it appear as a joke now huh.”
“Yes, of course.”
Oh so that was how it was …. NO RATHER, you are going to explain to me why you started doing that in the first place in amidst the classroom now properly okay?”
“……, True enough. But I think it will going to be a long talk.”
After that, Minamisawa paused on for a moment.
I silently waited for her next words.
“Are you perhaps free during your lunch break?”
“Ou~nn, I’m all free.”
“I see. Then, after you are finished with your eating, come to the empty classroom on the second floor of the Special Classroom Building.”
“If I remember it clearly, ….. It is the classroom at the extreme end of that floor, is it?”
As I asked for confirmation, she nodded her head.
“I got it, I’ll be there as soon as I can. Please be sure to wait up for me.”
“Sure.”
After ending our conversation with little words, she immeditale returned her gaze back to the scenery outside.
“It’s about time for you to go. Since you don’t have music as your elective, do you?”
“Aaah, then, see you at lunch.”
“Sure. See you later.”
After exchanging a few words at the end, I left the music room.
As I was leaving, I somehow thought and looked at Minamisawa.
Sitting alone in the room in solitude, she looked so beautiful that it wouldn’t even be an exaggeration for her to be a subject of some painting. And so, I came to just one word, ‘EMOISH’ to describe her.
…………………….
For some reason, regarding that girl out there, I felt a kind of kinship with her.
