Until My Spirit Was Destroyed By My Super Yandere Childhood Friend And I Fell Into Darkness - Chapter 28 (I'm Dreaming Right Now)

I’m Dreaming Right Now

At first, I was happy when I started dating Hikaru, but recently I heard rumors spreading around the school, and my spirit was shaken violently.

I wanted to believe in Hikaru, but I couldn’t believe her because there was a precedent of Senzoku Kawasaki.

Because of that, a rift gradually began to form between me and Hikaru.

That’s why we’re more awkward than when we first started dating. Until now, I would have never paid attention to such rumors. I may have become cynical now.

I was going to school while thinking about that, but when I arrived at the classroom, there was something strange about the atmosphere in the class.

The moment my classmates saw my face, they sent me pitiful glances, and I even heard voices saying “I pity Kenjou-kun,” but I had no idea what was going on.

“… what the hell is going on?”

I didn’t understand why, so I called out to a classmate who seemed to be aware of the situation.

“Hey, what do you mean I’m pitiful?”

“…Since yesterday, this has been circulating on the bulletin board behind the school and on social media.”

Looking at the screen of the smartphone that my classmate held out while making an awkward face, I completely froze.

Shockingly, there was a picture of Hikaru hugging and kissing someone. The man was only seen from behind, but I quickly realized it was Alan.

“… Yeah, this is a dream. I’m dreaming right now.”

“T-Kenjou-kun. Are you okay? Stay with me!”

Such a painful thing cannot be real. Apparently I’m having a lucid dream now.

Once I realized that, rest was easy. I need to wake up and get back to reality as soon as possible.

People around me were starting to make a fuss about it, but since it’s all a dream, it’s just an illusion my brain is showing me.

“Maybe jumping off that place will wake me up ……?”

I started to think about how to wake up, but just then I saw the open window and mumbled something about it.

If I jumped from such a high place, I could die, but since it is all a dream, there is nothing to worry about.

“Oh s**t, he’s completely lost his mind. Quick, someone stop him!”

I walked step by step toward the window, but someone clasped me from behind.

As I was absentmindedly thinking that this was a strangely realistic dream, I was slapped in the face.

“Ouch …… Why did that hurt when this is just a dream?”

“Kenjo, get a grip. This is all real.”

When I was wondering why my cheek started to ache, the classmate who had slapped me said something like that with a saddening look on his face.

The pain in my cheek and the word “reality” made me realize that this was not a dream, and I finally reached my limit.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH”

“Hey, did you know? An incident happened in another class before first period.”

“Yeah. Because I could hear the screaming all the way to my class.”

“She cheated on him and he tried to kill himself, right? I really feel sorry for him.”

The incident in which Kaito-kun became delirious and attempted to jump out of the window is well known throughout the school, and now that lunch break has arrived, it’s the topic of conversation in my class.

Incidentally, Kaito-kun went crazy and screamed, then fell unconscious with convulsions and was transported to the hospital in an ambulance.

“I didn’t expect it to become such a big deal, but I think this will be enough to break up with Hikaru Hiryu, and I guess I’m OK with the outcome.”

Muttering such things, I head to the rooftop with my lunch box as usual. And as I climb the stairs leading to the rooftop, I hear a man and a woman arguing from above.

“You’re the one who uploaded these disgusting photoshopped photos to the back bulletin board and social networking sites. What on earth do you want to do by making me and Kaito-kun suffer?”

“I-It’s complicated…..”

When I peered through the gap in the door, I saw Hiryu Hikaru and Alan there.

That woman was furious, and she was unilaterally blaming Alan.

Alan, on the other hand, was completely atrophied and at the mercy of what he was being told.

It was all my fault that the photos were created and uploaded, but apparently, Hikaru Hiryuu misunderstood Alan as the culprit.

As such, I’ll let Alan continue to be the villain.

And for the time being I thought it would not be a good idea to go out to the roof, so I began to return to the classroom.

“Huh? It’s unusual for Ellen to be in the lunch break classroom.”

“I had a bit of a hard time today, so I don’t want to be alone.”

When I returned to the classroom, a friendly classmate called out to me, so I answered appropriately. Then my classmate made a sad face and spoke.

“…I see, Ellen was a childhood friend of Kenjou-kun and was on good terms with him.”

“Yeah, that’s why I want someone to be with me.”

I said so with a painful expression. To be honest, I didn’t even think about that in my heart, but a normal girl would probably react like this.

I’m broken and I’m no longer normal, but I often play the role of a normal girl so that people around me don’t suspect me.

After that I spent my lunch break pretending to be normal.
