Episode 46 – Result From Thinking ~Iori’s POV~

When I arrived at the classroom, Yui started talking to me, but I didn’t mind her. I didn’t want to talk to her because I knew that if I talked to her now, I would turn the heat on her.

“Good morning, Iori.”

“Good morning, Kotaro.”

This is my childhood friend, Kotaro. We have been together from kindergarten to high school, and we have a very close relationship. 

“Sounds like you’re having a hard time.”

“Not really.”

“I hope so…..”

“Don’t worry, it’s not a problem.”

“If there’s anything I can do to help, just let me know.”

“Thank you.”

I can’t tell my childhood friend to let me punch him because I’m pissed off, no matter how much I know him.

—I thought about a lot of things today.

After thinking about it again, I decided to talk to Naru properly.

But not today. If I meet with Naru today, I might talk about my emotions again and nothing would get resolved.

That’s why today’s club activities are off.

“Yui, I’m taking today off from club activities.”

“Eh, ah, yeah…… can I talk to you for a bit?”

“Sorry, Today’s a bit.”

It’s against my policy to skip club activities without permission no matter what the circumstances. I want to talk to Yui too, but I still want to hear it from Naru.

I want Naru to fulfill his responsibility as my boyfriend.

—I wonder how long it’s been since I’ve gone home by myself.

I’ve always had Naru by my side ever since I met him.

“It’s unusual for you to go home at this hour.”

“Ah, Takami sensei.”

Takami sensei is a music teacher. Before I met Naru, I consulted with him on songs and gave he gave me advice on singing. By the way, he’s not the advisor of the light music club.

“Are you on the way home too, sensei?”

“Yes, I have a few things to do today……is it okay if I join you partway through?”

‘Of course, I was rather frustrated, so I would like to ask you.”

“You haven’t been visiting me lately. How are you doing?”

“I’m doing very well. I’ve formed a unit with a new member.”

“Is he the rumored guy I’ve been hearing lately?”

I can’t believe that even Takami san is talking about him.

“Yes, well……, but how could a teacher who doesn’t seem to be interested in a student’s affair know about it?”

“Ahaha, I’m not interested in student’s affair you say……that may be true, but Kubota san is different.”

“Eh?”

“As a musician, it’s only natural for me to be interested in people who love music like you.”

So that’s what he meant…….thank god.

“But he’s also terrible. He was dating an attractive woman like Kubota san, but he was also involved with other women, moreover  two of them.”

Why is the teacher……even looking at the school’s SNS?

“You know about it too, sensei?”

Kubota san is a celebrity. Rumors will come in even if you don’t want them to.

“Somehow, I’m sorry.”

“Moreover, it’s outrageous to meet another woman on the way home from a date.”

Hm? How does the teacher know that?

Could it be that the teacher was the one who exposed Naru on the school SNS?

I’m starting to get scared to be with my teacher.

Naru, come here…..right now.

I felt so helpless and I knew that Naru is the person I rely on the most.
