After Coincidentally Saving the New Transfer Student’s Little Sister, We Gradually Grew Closer

"What do you care?

I can't ignore it because of the obvious appeal, and I'll ask Hanasawa, who looks up to me next door.

I just want you to ask me briefly because it's time for the rest of the day...

"How can you pretend to be cold when seniors are really sweet?

Strangely, Hanasawa, who never looked malicious, asked as she leaned her little neck.

It really looks like I'm just curious.

But I thought the reluctance was awesome.

Who, who recognised her as someone who could care for her?

I don't care about you at all, this kid.

Don't hesitate to step into the realm of men.

- And I changed my perception of Hanasawa, but soon I realized that the perception was wrong.

If you look closely, Hanasawa's expression is a little tense, and the hand draped underneath makes a grip.

And my body is shaking faintly.

This reaction belongs to a human being who is listening patiently for something, even though he realizes he is being rude.

I don't know what the hell Hanasawa has in mind.

But if you're not asking me for a joke, I should give you an answer.

"Nothing, I'm not pretending to be cold. It's just that if I treat you normally, it just looks like that from around me."

"But..."

"I don't know what to say.... I don't care."

"What...?

"I don't care, I'm not interested and I don't feel comfortable dealing with it. I'm sure it looks cold from around here."

For example, customers shopping in a supermarket or passengers on the same train.

Would you be interested in people who happen to be in the same place, not familiar with each other?

Not to mention, is there something you want to get along with?

- I can tell you no.

From me, the classmates and the students who go to the same school are only visible to the red people who are in the same place.

So I don't think it matters.

I know I'm not thinking right, but that's not why I can change my mind.

Treat me gently if necessary, but I won't even talk if I don't need to.

If that doesn't bother me, I just wish you wouldn't get involved.

"Why do you think that...?

After all, Mr. Hanasawa is like any other human being, and he doesn't seem convinced by the way I think.

But that's not all. I won't keep her away.

Because even awards and chairmen who are often with me have the same idea just to keep it out of their mouths.

Only those two know how I got to think like this.

So I guess there are aspects to not telling.

I don't know what to do with Hanasawa......

Honestly, we don't hang out long enough to reveal every secret.

We just stay together because we still need to.

You won't have to talk about anything.

- But she told me she believed me.

He didn't stay with me much, let alone tell me he'd believe me with bad rumors attached.

And yet I feel like I'm just running away from believing in her.

At least I feel sorry for myself if I can't seem to face reciprocity.

"Right...... let's just say I was trying to study and exercise just to please one child. And yet, what would you think if one day he suddenly betrayed me, let alone turned that way? Don't you think I've been trying so hard for what? Not to mention, you don't want to believe in others, you don't want to get involved?

…………

Hearing my words, Hanasawa turned silently downwards.

Even though we talked about it, I'm sure she understood that this was actually happening in the course of the conversation.

I don't know what she's thinking right now.

Are you thinking about who I'm talking to, or are you trying to figure out how I feel - well, I don't care what it is.

No matter what she thinks, something doesn't change.

I'm already talking about what's over.

I can't do anything about what I've done now, nor do I want to do something about it.

It's just that I'm scared.

To the guy who betrayed me (...), and to myself for trying so hard to please him like that.

I'm studying hard now because I need it in the future.

When it comes to football, stress dissipation is the main reason why I want to be the power of the few people who understand me.

I guess I'm on the verge of rotting if I can only move into action with this idea.

... No, it's probably already so rotten.

I can't help stepping off the road like that because the awards and chairman are beside me.

If it hadn't been for those two, my life would have been long over.

All I can say is thank you to those two for being beside me like this.

- I only thanked Mr. Hanasawa in my heart for his silence.
