Chapter 47: The Next Day’s Test Study (Girlfriend’s Perspective ②)

“Alright, everyone, sit down.”

The central figure calls out. Everyone,

“Where to sit?” “Sit next to me?”

Saying that, they start taking seats one after another.

Eh? What to do?

I’ve totally missed the wave. What now, where to sit… I want to sit near him!

Thinking that, I look around for him, and there he is, right near me!

Yes! So when he sits, I’ll sit nearby, I think, but then,

“Ah, Sugi-chan, what are you doing? Let’s sit here!”

A friend suddenly comes and forces me into a seat.

No! Wait a sec!

She probably thought I was hesitating and didn’t know where to sit.

Yeah, probably, but wait! I want to sit next to Takashiro-kun!

As I’m forced to sit and thinking that, someone sits next to me.

Wait, I don’t know who, but that’s Takashiro-kun’s seat!

I glare next to me, and it’s him!

I’m surprised and a bit stunned.

No, sorry. Wait, you chose to sit next to me.

You wanted to talk to me too. Of course.

The study session progresses smoothly. Everyone studies while chatting, taking breaks sometimes.

Pretty good atmosphere. This way, I might get to talk to him.

But what to say. Study-related is best, right? Like this problem? But this is easy, no need to ask? Don’t want to seem dumb.

But this one’s too hard, if he doesn’t know, it’d be embarrassing…

While thinking that,

“Hey, what do you think this means?”

He asks me.

Ah, he talked to me. Happy! He didn’t forget me.

We’re in sync.

But I kinda notice you’re not just mine anymore.

So I won’t bite at every bait you throw. I’ve changed too, won’t let you have all the control.

I want you to chase me too.

Because I want you obsessed with me.

Suppressing my grin, keeping calm, I teach him the study point.

After teaching, I dive back into my own studying, cutting off the conversation.

See, I’ve changed? So don’t think I’m still obsessed only with you.

I want you to talk to me again, extend the talk.

But contrary to my hopes, he not only doesn’t talk to me again but tries to talk to others, looks happy when others talk to him.

Why?

You should want to talk to me, right?

You can talk to others anytime. With me, it might be now or never?

Thinking that, I can’t stop. When he talks to someone, I join; when someone talks to him, I talk first.

Before I know it, it’s dark outside, and the study session is ending.

Everyone’s bustling, saying time to go home, starting to clean up.

Eh? I barely studied at all!

I was too focused on keeping him away from others, hardly studied in the second half.

Wait, why did I even come! So stupid.

Thinking that,

“See you then. You’ll come tomorrow too, right?”

He says to me.

Eh? Yeah. Of course. Well, yeah. My goal today was talking to him. Studying is secondary.

Ah, glad I came today.

Gotta secure the seat next to him tomorrow too.

Chapter 48: Are There Yandere Among Guys Too?

Well, through the test studies, I created yandere or felt the growth of past yandere I created, but there’s one thing I’ve been working on since before the tests.

That’s searching for a certain yandere.

Do you remember I reached a new realization a while ago?

That was at the previous off-meet, realizing “Maybe there are yandere talents among guys too.”

This was life-changing for me.

Since then, I’ve been searching if there are guys with hidden yandere talent.

Probing guys’ inner worlds is frankly easier than girls’. What personality, what type they like, family environment? Middle school days?

Even without prior info gathering, I know friends well, and rarely zero interaction with unknowns.

So, I targeted prospects and worked to learn more about them.

By the way, are there differences in yandere between girls and guys? That’s important.

Since realizing guys might have yandere potential, I’ve researched guy yandere traits and differences from girls.

Mainly based on games, anime, manga.

As yandere, regardless of gender, the feelings of wanting to be loved! Devote and be devoted! Look only at me! seem the same.

But I saw traits more in guys than girls.

That is, guys often turn to violence when emotions run high.

So-called violent type. Said to be common in guys.

Violent type: Bad at expressing feelings, resort to violence, hurt people.

Frankly, I think this talent shouldn’t be bloomed.

Shouldn’t create something that hurts someone. Even if yandere.

Well, I knew from 2D that some girls wield knives or self-harm.

But in reality, as a possibility…

Honestly, I don’t want to create yandere to hurt someone. So unintended if yandere that might hurt emerges, and bad for general yandere image.

Just in case, I started learning martial arts. But I want to use that power to protect yandere.

For the loved ones!

So I decided. Search for guys with non-violent type talent!

This journey was extremely tough. Few promising in my friends, I searched for weeks.

But suddenly I found him.

Like a ray of light, he shone.

There he is! A guy in my class with likely non-violent yandere talent.

So today, I want to talk to him and help bloom his talent… Huh? Where is he.

I look around for him. Huh?

Then,

“Hey, can you move? You’re in the way.”

Said to me.

Yes, you. You.

Nice to meet you from today.
