When I, a streamer with some more than 10 registered subscribers, announced my retirement with a face-reveal; as all my viewers were the Madonnas of the school, I ended up losing my current place at school all in all. - 20_ The promise of returning home from school with Shizuhara-san

20_ The promise of returning home from school with Shizuhara-san

Maybe I can ask Akane about the behavior in this picture later at home.

For now, what should I do about my bento box.

Since that place has been taken by Kageno-san, I guess, I have no choice other than to look for another place.

Of course, that place would also be under the stairway as well.

So I have to clean that place again huh …

No, rather, let’s go to the usual place again tomorrow and if Kageno-san does not come there, I will just continue my stay there.

Given that, we won’t be exchanging messages that often anyway..

So, maybe in a few days, Kageno-san will have forgotten about me all in all.

It will be fine. I am sure of it.

Unn, then I don’t need to look for a new place right at this moment.

I might as well just go and eat in the shade of a tree on the playground.

Taking my bento in one hand, I changed my shoes at the entrance hallway and walked to the place I had thought of earlier.

In the center of the field, there were people who had already finished eating their lunch boxes and were playing soccer or baseball with their friends.

I don’t particularly feel envy towards them.

Reason being, I don’t really like to play outside after all.

Needless to say, because I am an introvert!

Un, you understand with that alone, don’t you?

No need for more explaining!

I was able to finish my lunch box with relish.

And it was time: After school.

Ha~ah, The afternoon classes were as tedious as ever, especially those maths ones.

For someone like me, who can only focus on subjects like humanities, maths is my nemesis.

After all, it’s not at all really uninteresting.

People around me say that it feels good when you are able to solve it, but in my case, I don’t understand the feeling regardless.

I’m sorry to those for those who are seriously studying that subject, but it’s just appears insane to me.

Let’s go home alone as usual and enjoy my hobbies in my room.

I wonder what I will do today.

Maybe I’ll draw an illustration.

Back when I used to steam, I used to make all the illustrations im the thumbnails of my videos all by myself.

I didn’t have the money to ask a famous illustrators to illustrate for my videos, so I had no choice but to do it.

But well, thinking on the lines that it actually turned out well enough would look like I am favoring myself unappropriately, but in time, I think I have become quite good at it.

Maybe I will be able earn as an active professional as well?

No, no, I’m really being overconfident over here.

All right, now that the preparations are complete, let’s go home.

‘See ya later’, are words that makes me a little sad since I don’t have any friends to tell that to… but well,  ….let’s go home.

Still, just in case.

“Sayonara~!”

I said that in a very quiet voice.

Obviously knowing that I won’t get a reply!

“Wai–wait a minute there, Uminagi-kun!

… I felt like my name was called out, but then again, there’s no one in this class that I’m that close to.

Ahm, let me correct that, not in this school. that is.

I went out to the corridor.

“Eh, wait a minute please, Uminagi-kun!”

Nn? Maybe I seriously being called after all?

With a doubtful look on my face, I turned around.

And then, the person who adorned my sight was …… Shizuhara-san?

I had somehow thought it sounded like Shizuhara-san from the first time I heard it, I guess I was right.

“Oh, finally you stopped.”

“So— I’m sorry. I didn’t thought anyone would be calling for me in the first place.”

“No, no, no, I said ‘Uminagi-kun’ from the start itself, remember please.”

Well, yes, you did.

Well, you know I have low self-esteem, Te~he~.

“And, so what do you want from me?”

“Ah, you diverted the topic immediately, now. Oh well, the reason I was calling out to Uminagi was because. I was wondering if you would want to go home together.”

Heh, I see. I see. You asked me if I want to go together heh.

I see. Well, all the best with that then. …… Nn?

Nnnnnn?????

Wait, did she just say something really unbelievable to me just now?

Something that I thought I’d never hear ever in my life. ……, for the time being, let’s just ask her to repeat again just to be safer side?

“Sorry, can you repeat that again?”

“Eh, did you not get me clearly? So what I am saying is, Can we go home together, Uminagi-kun!”
