Villain Days Chapter 26

Chapter 26:

High School – Eighth Part

“I don’t want to leave Yuu alone, so can you stop asking to meet privately?”

As I enter the Student Council room, I try to push down my dislike of Houou-senpai.

When Yuu had fallen down the stairs the other day, I felt so upset and frustrated that I couldn’t be by his side at that time. All the while, senpai eyes me from the President’s chair.

Hiroto: “…I didn’t call for this meeting.”

Teruki: “…Hah? Then who did?”

Genbu: “Ye~s♪ it’s me!”

Genbu Airu.

I can’t believe my eyes.

Why is this person here…?

Genbu: “This meeting’s about rabbit-chan~. I thought we should share information…Well, sit down.”

So I plop down on the sofa. Houou-senpai is reclining in his seat, looking as relaxed as if he were in his own room. He’s also glaring at Genbu, clearly holding back from spouting some insults. I recall that this upperclassman had helped Yuu from falling down the stairs. So I thank him.

Teruki: “…Thank you for helping Yuu the other day.”

Genbu: ” You’re welcome~….I just wanted to help…you come off as having ownership over Rabbit…that’s no fun.”

Teruki: “….”

What the.

The playful attitude from before is completely replaced by a terrifying sharpness. Eyes as razor-edged and discerning as knives.

Teruki: “Yuu doesn’t belong to anyone.”

Genbu: “Oh? Are you…replying to me?”

He watches me and breaks into a laugh, smile added in for good measure. Expression softening.

Genbu: “…Rabbit is interesting, but his surroundings are funny as well…”

Hiroto: “Ha. Hey, Genbu. Just make friends already…!”

Suddenly, the door to the council room bursts open.

Suzaku: “…Houou-senpai! Are you there?”

Hiroto: “…Huh? Suzaku-kun you’re too early…just wait outside.”

As I divert my gaze, I can clearly see Suzaku standing there, gasping for air.
