Looking at the loli who rushed in, Yagi Miyuki, who had stood up, was stupefied. He held his glasses up, flabbergasted at the situation.
He couldnât be any more familiar with her. Because⊠the little blonde loli, who looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old, was his childhood sweetheart â Sakura Manyu!
Of course, from the memories he inherited from the original âYagi Miyukiâ, Sakura Manyu and his relationship were a thing of the past. And after what happened in junior high school, their relationship gradually became more and more estranged to the point that they wouldnât even greet each other when they ran into each other.
âThis is not a dream, right?â
When she saw Yagi Miyuki, her eyes blurred, and she fogged up in disbelief.
âLittle Yu.â
He inherited everything from the original âYagi Miyuki,â including his previous memories and feelings for her. The childhood friend heâd been with for more than ten years was crying in front of him. And under the gazes of the whole class, Yagi walked toward his childhood friend, who was blocking the door with teary eyes. He couldnât turn a blind eye to her.
âWowâ!â
Not waiting for Yagi to say another word, Sakura Manyu rushed up, put her arms around his waist, and buried her little head on his stomach, crying loudly!
âWoo â you big liar! You agreed not to leave me! I thought⊠I thought Iâd never see you again!â
Thatâs a lot of new information!
Feeling the stabbing gazes around him, Yagi Miyuki couldnât stay unperturbed!
Hello?! Sakura Manyu! Please donât say it like Iâve just crawled out of a coffin! And which ghost agreed that he wouldnât leave you? When did we have a deal? Thanks to you, Iâve become a pervert who had illicit relations with a loli and abandoned her halfway!
âIsnât that Sakura Manyu from Class D? I didnât expect Yagi to be such scum! I used to think that he was a model student.â
âIâm afraid that heâs tired of living. Sakura Manyu is the star player in the kendo department. Sheâs powerful! Playing with her feelings is definitely a death sentence, right?â
âYagi is finished.â
While everyone was talking, Sakura raised her little head. Her teary and hazy eyes could make a lolicon burst into pieces on the spot. But then she stared at Yagi Miyuki, looking a little dazed and gratefulâŠ
Speaking of which, Sakura Manyu is the one who canât believe this is happening. She thought that she was in a light novel with a chaotic plot. She canât believe she crossed over to a parallel world!
She and Yagi Miyuki grew up as childhood friends in the world she originally lived in. On the day they were about to enter senior high school, the world seemed to have started to record a sudden change in plot.
Just like in a movie, a zombie virus swept over the world. On that day, St. Cronia High School was attacked by zombies, and more than 90% of its students and teachers were infected. With the help of her childhood sweetheart, who suddenly became mature and stable, she and the survivors drove the bus out of school.
âWe agreed that all will be alright, that you wonât leave me! You big liar!â
Sakura Manyu closed her eyes but couldnât stop her tears. What happened that day is still vivid in her mind.
Because of her arrogance, she dared to fight more than 50 zombies with a half-broken samurai sword she picked up, which almost caused their survivor stronghold to fall.
After the samurai sword broke, she thought it was all over, but her childhood sweetheart, who had become quite distant since high school, took the initiative to attract the zombies in her stead. He pushed her to a safe zone and was swarmed by the zombies. She comforted herself as she cried incessantly. He would stay with her forever; he must keep on living.
Itâs over⊠my high school life is overâŠ
Listening to the words coming from the crowd around him, such as beast, scumbag, and human trash, Yagi stiffened and hugged Sakura Manyu tightly in front of him.
It was as if she was afraid he would disappear. There was something in her heart that she wanted to say but didnât know how to.
âLittle⊠Little Yu, what happened? We grew up together. Tell me whatâs going on!â
Looking at Sakura full of tears, I felt pity for the little thing. However, Yagi still failed to say anything meaningful. Stressing the word âchildhood sweetheartsâ to save his skin, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the blonde loliâs tears.
Regardless, Sakura Manyu is the childhood friend he grew up with. They were born in the same hospital on the same day, month, and year. The relationship between their families has always been close as well. No matter what, they canât let each other go.
âItâs alright.â
Sakura Manyu shook her head and showed a sweet smile. After crying her heart out, she was full of hope for a new life.
Itâs great! Itâs great to be in this world! This time, me and brother Yagi need to⊠get married!
Although brother Yagi was very irritating when he was in junior high school, he was willing to sacrifice his life for her. He must still like her. No, he loves her! No matter which world, he loves her!
I have to go back and calm down now. I need to think about how to become the wife of brother Yagi.
âI just had a nightmare when I dozed off in class. Iâm relieved. Brother Yagi is alright.â
Did you dream that I was dead? Donât dream of such a thing! What if it actually happens?!
Yagi was so angry that he got a toothache.
âWell, Iâll go first. Iâll make a bento for you tomorrow, brother Yagi.â
Looking at Sakura Manyu, seemingly relieved from a nightmare, smile, turn away, and leave, Miyuki Yagi was utterly baffled.
How did we suddenly make up? Havenât you ignored me for almost three years since that incident? Sheâll also make me a bento⊠is she trying to poison me with her cooking skill that can destroy the earth and sky just by frying an egg?
âYa â gi!â
Just then, Heifu Sazawa came over with an already dark face and said with envy and jealousy, âDid you and Sakura Manyu grow up together as childhood sweethearts? I have never heard you talk about it! Although the girls said that if you put your hand on Sakura Manyu, youâll get trashed and declared a lolicon officially, sheâs still super cute!â
âWeâre just ordinary childhood sweethearts.â
Yagi Miyuki raised his glasses and said silently, looking at the students in the classroom who hadnât gone off to eat lunch yet. He felt he was getting farther and farther away from the quiet high school life he had wanted.
Damn it, I really saw a ghost today. This morning, my little sister, who hadnât paid attention to me since junior high school, came to wake me up. After class, the schoolâs flower, Ninomiya-senpai, confessed to me. And now, my childhood sweetheart is here⊠I really canât study in peace!
