The next day, when I arrived at school, Shirakawa stopped me in the corridor.
āOi, come here for a minute. I need to talk to you.ā
He was less threatening than usual, but he was still intimidating.
āEh, I donāt want to.ā
If he comes at me with that kind of attitude, I honestly donāt want to have a conversation with him. Iām sorry, but I refuse.
āW-Wait a minute! ā¦.I want to talk to you about Itakura.ā
Thatās what came out of his mouth. I see. Itakura.
āIām not interested.ā
āWhat?! You say youāre not interested⦠That canāt be true!?ā
Regrettably, I really donāt.
Regardless of whether he believes it or not, he told me what happened between me and Sonoda.
āSorry, but I donāt trust Shirakawa. Besides, I heard the story directly from her.ā
Itās not that I trust Itakura, though.
āAnyway, you were thinking of showing Fukumura a good part or something, werenāt you?ā
Well, I guess I hit the nail. I knew that about this.
āI donāt intend to do anything directly to you, Shirakawa. So please leave me alone.ā
āāIt was not my intention.ā
He denies it with his mouth, but his expression is one of bitterness. Most likely, he thought he would be insured.
He thought that if he showed even the slightest sign of remorse, he might be forgiven.
To be clear, it doesnāt matter.
Either way, itās too late. I know what Iām going to do.
You sowed the seeds yourself. I hope you suffer to the fullest.
āāWhat are you going to do?ā
āNothing. Thereās nothing Iām going to do to you.ā
Thatās what this is all about. Itās for your own good.
So thereās nothing you can do about it.
All you can do is destroy yourself on your own.
āHey, are you sure about this? Onii-chan?ā
After school, I was swaying on the train with Sachi, who looked a little sad.
āIāve already made up my mind. More importantly, Iām sorry? Iām sorry you have to go along with my selfishness.ā
āThatās fine, but⦠Itās Onii-chan whoās having a hard time.ā
Last night was difficult in many ways. Well, to put it simply, Sachi got angry. I thought the devil had come out.
In the end, I told her the reason and she agreed, but I donāt think she has forgiven me 100% yet.
Anyway. First of all, I have to talk it through. Otherwise, I donāt even know if itās feasible.
It took 10 minutes to get on the train. I get out of the station and walk for about five minutes.
I havenāt told the person Iām going to meet that Iām coming.
But I donāt need to contact that person. Because I just came back.
I think itās time to start the rest of the fight.
