I returned to my room after pressuring Kanzaki with Sakura and remembered the scene I saw at lunch break.
During lunch break, I went to Kanzakiās classroom to deliver his bento, but for some reason he left the classroom together with Saijo-san.
I thought he might be trying to do something, so I decided to follow them.
Then for some reason Saijo-san handed a bento box to Kanzaki-kun and they began to eat them side by side.
Judging from his expression, they werenāt on good terms. However Saijo-san was smiling from beginning to endā¦..
Could it be that Saijo-sanā¦.likes Kanzaki-kunā¦.?
Didnāt he stop her planā¦.?
But from the way she was looking at him, I could only think that I was right.
Or rather, she outright admitted that she wanted to be Kanzakiās girlfriend so it was definitely the caseā¦
But he said he wanted to start out as friendsā¦.
Is this a defensive measure heās doing to protect me..?
Or does he really think itās okay to go out with Saijo-sanā¦?
Besides that, the key to Kanzaki-kunās change wasā¦.Kotori Haruka?
Waa~ mou, there are so many things I donāt know~ā¦
For some reason Iāve gotten moody.
I know what this is, jealousy.
I was jealous of Saijo-san for being able to talk with him freely, but most of all I was jealous ofāKotori Haruka, for occupying an important position in his heart.
Iām not sure if this is because heās Umi-kun, or because Iāve started to like Kanzaki-kun.
No, even if you sayćtheyāre the samećthe fact is that Umi-kun has been the target of my unrequited love without even knowing his face, and now Iāve suddenly found out that he is someone close to me who I hated until a while ago.
Yet it was Kanzaki-kun who helped me out of a desperate situation.
The two seem to mix together, but at the same time they donāt.
There was also another shocking fact I discovered after finding out that Kanzaki-kun was Umi-kun.
That wasāthat Kanzaki-kun wasnāt a tsundere!
What does this mean!?
Wasnāt he happy to get close to me!?
He wasnāt saying those things to hide his embarrassment!?
Iām still not convinced on that part.
But itās an undeniable truth that he hated me.
Becauseā¦.thatās what he said to me as Hanahime!!Ā (TLN: Remember he complained about his stepsister to Hanahime)
Iāve done itā¦.
Iāve really done it this timeā¦.
Until now, I didnāt mind if he hated me and I didnāt feel the need to change my attitude because I thought he was ok with it, but if Umi-kun hates me now, then the story is different!
So am I going to change my attitude now!?
Thatās impossible!
I might have been able to right after he helped meābut instead I saidćdisgustingćā!
Aaaaaaaaaaa!
Am I an idiot!?
Am I really stupid!?
I could see that he was smiling and answering that way out of shyness.
I could have chosen different words!
So, itās impossible to change my attitude now.
Do I continue to argue with him as is!?
Wait! I still have a hand to play!
I could just admit that Iām Hanahime and that I know heās Umi-kun and I could start treating him kindly!
ā¦..itās impossibleeeeee!
Because if I tell him who Hanahime is, what if he starts hating Hanahime as well!?
If that happens, then I canāt talk to Umi-kun anymore right!?
I wonāt be able to recover from that!
But but, what should I doā¦
At this rate Saijo-san might steal Kanzaki-kunā¦
Thatās because, when I left school today I saw Saijo-san and Kanzaki-kun walking whilst linking arms!
I couldnāt hear the conversation, but they seemed to be having fun!
Uuuā¦.thatās not itā¦.
But what should I doā¦
At that time, a book fell into my sight.
It was the books I had borrowed from him, the base of the story was essentially an eroge involving the heroines.
For the record, Umi-kun didnāt announce his age, but still wrote eroge reviews on his blogā¦
I thought he might not be a high school student, but if Kanzaki-kun is Umi-kun, then just what are healthy high school boys doing nowadays?ā¦.is what I want to say.
Reallyā¦.eroge isā¦.lewdā¦.
A, ah, thatās itā!
At this time, a good idea suddenly came to mindā!
