Don't you guys dislike me?

Yuichi's attitude was so cold that she felt unfamiliar, even more distant than when they first met. The moment she hugged and lost him, she felt a sense of emptiness and her heart sank to the bottom.

The faucet was dripping, and the worries seemed to be strangling her neck, making it difficult for her to breathe. Kasumigaoka Utaha walked on the cold floor and returned to her room. Her slippers were lying scattered under the dining table, and no one cared about them.

…………

The next morning, the pleasant weekend was over. In just two days, Youyi felt as if he had just woken up from a dream, and his heart was weird. He thought that it was those feelings that Youyi didn't want to think about that were playing tricks on him.

It's all just self-conceit...

Yuichi believes that time, the omnipotent doctor, will calm their restlessness for them, provided that they keep a distance from Kasumigaoka Utaha.

While thinking, Yuichi came to the kitchen. It was just getting light and the kitchen was still a little dark. He turned on the light, and the bright light dispelled the darkness and illuminated places that Yuichi had not noticed.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was wearing a nightgown, had quietly been lying on the dining table. The light pried open her tightly closed eyes, and her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. The girl rubbed her eyes and looked at the figure in the kitchen in a daze. Her voice, which was not yet awake, was soft and sweet:

"Yuichi, make me some breakfast too, and I won't go to Sister Hina's house."

After saying this, it seemed as if all her energy was exhausted. The girl continued to sleep on the table, as if she had fulfilled her wish. Her peaceful sleeping face was slightly curved with sweet honey hanging on it.

The innocence that was inadvertently revealed by the sleeping Utaha Kasumigaoka and the fair skin that could not be concealed by the thin gauze-like nightgown became more and more intense in Yuichi's mind. She was like a sleeping poppy, exuding an alluring fragrance.

The stunning glimpse froze in Youyi's mind, and he quickly looked away. Kasumigaoka Utaha's beauty was too dangerous, and he would fall into it if he was not careful.

When did she lie down here? Did she wait until dinner time to tell me? That's impossible. It must be for that mysterious job again.

Youyi collected his thoughts and started preparing breakfast.

…………

At the same time, next door, Tachibana Haruna, who got up early to prepare breakfast, gave up because of the message sent by Kasumigaoka Utaha in the early morning.

——Sister Yangcai, I will eat at home from now on and won’t bother you anymore.

Tachibana Haruna smiled helplessly, threw her phone onto the bed, and dived back into the still warm quilt:

"Mr. Hoshino entrusted you two little guys to me."

Yuichi left first, and Kasumigaoka Utaha followed him. The house was empty, and her heart was empty too. She talked about responsibility, but in fact she felt ashamed for taking money from Kasumigaoka Yuno but not fulfilling her corresponding responsibilities.

In the past, whenever Kasumigaoka Utaha came, she would intentionally or unintentionally lead the topic to Yuichi, and Kasumigaoka Utaha would also cooperate and talk about some trivial matters. This was her way to understand Yuichi's recent situation. After all... if she went to find him herself, she might be ignored again. It is not a good feeling to be avoided by someone you care about.

Unpleasant memories came to mind. Tachibana Haruna covered herself with the quilt and whimpered a few times to vent her sorrow. This was the only advantage of being alone. No one cared what she did, and no one would care. It was a little sad...

I didn't see Yuichi the whole weekend. Is he avoiding me?

Tachibana Haruna looked towards the next door. She and Yuichi had less and less contact. Although there was only a wall between them, it seemed as if they were separated by the world. When she was alone, loneliness took advantage of the opportunity to sneak in... Can she win Yuichi back?

Her beautiful emerald eyes were in a daze, fear swaying in the blue waves, reflecting anxiety, the red rope was disintegrating, she had to do something.

…………

The tram goes from shaking gently to running smoothly, a process repeated every day that gives the tram a special meaning.

Kasumigaoka Utaha sat beside him as usual, but this was not normal. The girl herself revealed the relationship beneath the sugar coating, and there was no need to maintain their close relationship anymore.

It seemed that ever since she said those words that morning, she had been doing things completely contrary to her original intentions.

Yuichi put on his headphones and looked out the window. He didn't spend much time on the train, so this insignificant contact was still within his tolerance range.

The tram slowly stopped, the flowing scenery paused for a moment and then continued to flow.

There was a delicate girl among the crowd getting on the bus. She hid in the crowd and didn't want Yuichi to notice her, because in her eyes, there was no place for her next to Yuichi.

Katsura Yanye grabbed the handrail, her big deep purple eyes quietly looking at Youyi through the bodies of the office workers, her cherry lips tightly pursed and her eyebrows drooped.

Don't bother Yuu-chan anymore...

ps: I played three games today and it was too late. I still need to revise it tomorrow (probably)

93. She won’t agree

The train stopped and started, and the passengers on the train kept changing. It was about to arrive at the station, but Youichi still didn't see the petite figure of Kaede Kotonoha.

His eyes drifted casually across the carriage. With Kotonoha's appearance and temperament, he would definitely stop and stare at her. Was there something that delayed her? After all, ever since they met, they would always meet on the train as scheduled, without exception.

"Maybe that girl already has a new playmate and doesn't need you anymore."

I don't know if it was out of jealousy or just a joke, but Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at the book without moving her eyes, but she uttered these sarcastic words. She has always disdained such divisive words, but why did she say this today?

Realizing that Yuichi's eyes finally fell on her, Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced sideways and lifted up the black hair that was hanging over her forehead, revealing her crystal earlobes and beautiful profile. Her black hair set off her snow-white skin, her eyebrows were slightly narrowed, and her smile was narrow.

"Any questions? It's just a reasonable guess~"

Jealousy can narrow people's hearts, and love often selfishly and paranoidly wants to monopolize the other person's attention, while she herself is unaware of it.

The girl had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and even her jealousy was disguised as a different kind of charm. She began to care about Yuichi, and her feelings were unconsciously attached to Yuichi.

But Yuichi did not linger on her carefully prepared little thoughts, as if to say that there was nothing for her to linger on. Yuichi's gaze left, taking away her confidence, and a slight sourness spread in her heart.

The book covered Kasumigaoka Utaha's face, revealing her dissatisfied and dim eyes. The fingertips holding the book turned a little pale. The morning sun could not fall on her pretty face, and there was only a haze in her heart.

She crossed her legs, and the scenery under her skirt suddenly appeared and then disappeared deeply. She forced herself to continue reading. Her wine-red eyes were filled with black words, but her attention had already flown to Yuichi's sight.

After Yuichi's gaze had been unsuccessful for several times, his eyes were filled with a little confusion and disappointment. Was he right? Kasumigaoka Utaha thought with some gloating, but a trace of distress emerged in her heart. She was very puzzled and didn't want to delve into the reason.

Maybe I should stay away from the scumbag. Recently, her thoughts seem to be getting more and more pretentious. When she writes, she is often afraid that what she writes is too pretentious. There is no such thing as love to death. Everyone is an independent individual. The idea of ​​abandoning oneself for the other person is too naive. It is just the writers' deliberate exaggeration and embellishment...

But if she really wanted to do that, and deliberately keep a distance from the scumbag... she hesitated again. She was afraid that she would not have the courage to come back by then...?! What's wrong with me?

Kasumigaoka Utaha took a deep breath, thinking that she could calm the thoughts that kept popping up in her mind, but the throbbing in her heart seemed particularly obvious and real after she calmed down.

Until the train arrived, Yuichi still couldn't see Kotonoha Katsura. At this time, Kasumigaoka Utaha also had a legitimate reason to part with Yuichi. The little leather shoes clattered, and the girl's heart felt the same. She left as if she was escaping, as if she was afraid that Yuichi's every move would affect her mood again, so that her whole head felt a little weird.

Works created from personal experience are often more real than those imagined. The story framework in the mind is quietly constructed. The new volume of teacher Kasumi Shiko's light novel is bound to bring a bloody storm, and the stomach medicine warehouse is full.

…………

After leaving the station, the crowds parted ways. Katsura Kotonoha stood out like a beautiful jade among the gravel. The girl with her schoolbag in both hands was about to hide herself, but she found that there were not many pedestrians around her, and Yuichi in front of her had already turned around and looked at her.

The young man stopped and looked back, as if waiting for her arrival. Katsura Kotonoha walked very slowly and had not yet figured out how to face Yuichi with an attitude.

In the blink of an eye, Gui Yanye had come to Youyi. She forced a smile, as if she had too many heavy worries to lower her beautiful eyebrows. Her smile was somewhat forced:

"Good morning, Yuu-chan."

A sad tune danced around the girl, and gloom surrounded her, pushing away passers-by.

"Did someone bully you again?"

Yuichi asked in confusion, since he got off the train at the same time as me, he should be on the same train. Did something happen that he didn't come to look for me?

Gui Yanye waved her hand and shook her head to say no, but the gloom between her brows did not dissipate at all.

"If you encounter any difficulties that you can't solve, you can tell me."

"Um……"

Youichi didn't say anything else. He measured the distance between the two of them. Since Kotonoha didn't want to say anything, he couldn't force her. It was always bad to intervene too much.

The silent atmosphere made the girl feel a little at a loss. She looked around, afraid of the sudden appearance of Kasumigaoka Utaha, but also enjoying the feeling of being with Yuichi with a certain joy. She felt like a thief who snatched Yuichi away from senior Kasumigaoka.

"Um, um...Yuu-chan."

Gui Yanye opened her cherry lips and asked with some hope.

"what happened?"

"What is the relationship between Yuu-chan and Kasumigaoka-senpai?"

Yuichi was about to find an excuse to get away with it, but he met the girl's nervous and serious eyes, and the perfunctory words that were about to reach his throat were swallowed back.

Yes, what is the relationship? Even he himself doesn't quite understand what that bastard sister is thinking...

His purple eyes were filled with apology and his voice kept lowering because he vaguely sensed that Gui Yanye's emotions seemed to be related to this matter, but he couldn't break the promise.

"I'm sorry...Kotonoha, I promised her not to tell."

"fine."

The girl's voice sounded like a sigh after a hard struggle. Yuichi's answer was equivalent to nothing, and even to some extent confirmed the suspicion in Katsura Kotonoha's heart. Her heart, which was already overcast, began to drizzle.

Why was Kotonoha so disappointed? It seemed that the reason why she didn't come to find him on the train was because of Kasumigaoka Utaha. He couldn't look at the problem from the perspective of love. He felt more that Kotonoha was afraid that Kasumigaoka Utaha would take away her friend.

Should I talk to Kasumigaoka Utaha and see if I can explain their relationship only to Kotonoha Katsura?

The girl was as delicate as a flower that could not withstand the wind and rain. Even if she tried to hide the sadness in her eyes, Youyi could feel it. He was not very good at comforting people, and he was afraid that if he opened his mouth he would misunderstand her and speed up the deterioration of their relationship. He was in a dilemma for a while.

"Kotonoha, can I give you an answer tomorrow?"

After all, Yuichi has a preference for Katsura Kotonoha, and he can't bear to see those beautiful gems shattered in front of his eyes.

"Um……"

Katsura Kotonoha nodded obediently, more like she was trying to comfort Yuichi, squeezing out a little tenderness from her sorrowful eyes. She knew that Yuichi was going to ask senior Kasumigaoka for her opinion.

But will Senior Kasumigaoka really agree?

94. Both failed

After parting with Katsura Kotonoha, Yuichi came to the classroom he had not seen for two days. The groups were clearly divided, and the whole classroom seemed lively and bustling, with everyone sharing their experiences or interesting things over the weekend. However, they were separated by an invisible wall of air, and anyone who tried to fit in would fail.

"Hey! Stupid You, why do you look so haggard after not seeing you for two days? Judging from your face, I guess you are hurt by love!"

Horie Tomoya pinched his chubby fingers, looked mysterious, and spoke in a pretentious manner.

"Um……"

Yuichi replied without comment that when he was with fun people, his heart would be happy, and then he wouldn't have to worry about the feelings that made him anxious.

"Oh wow~!" Horie Tomoya's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had made some progress in his magic. He asked repeatedly:

"Let me figure it out. Who are you worried about? Kasumigaoka-san? Katsura-san? Or Miura-san?"

"Are you just asking one by one?"

Tomoya obviously did not stop his twitching fingers from calculating because of Yuichi's words. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly:

"Or maybe all three?!"

"Maybe."

Yuichi shrugged, thinking that the Horie zaibatsu would have some unique secret skills, but his hilarious performance instantly extinguished Yuichi's hopes. He put down his schoolbag and turned to look at the familiar scenery outside the window.

"Hmm?! Did I really get it right? Stupid You! You are the abominable real person!"

Horie Tomoya looked at his best friend in disbelief, his small eyes unable to contain the shock.

"No, you're even scarier than the current ones. You're simply a winner in life! But then again, how dare you have your feet on three boats? Is it a chain of iron chains, the more there are, the harder it is to flip over?"

"I don't want to either...but my life has been a mess lately. I don't have the energy to watch any more anime, and I can't enjoy playing games."

Youyi sighed softly, but it was a pity that he couldn't exhale the heavy sorrow, so it had to continue to accumulate in his heart and slowly ferment.

"It was better when I had nothing to worry about and was alone. It's too tiring to live now."

"So I've long understood this, and I don't have any attachment to the three-dimensional world. If a hero loses his homeland, he will always be a hero!"

Tomoya Horie looked proud. Yuichi's words inexplicably turned into the capital of his pride. His arrogant fat face was full of incongruity. Yuichi's mood also eased a little during the chat with Tomoya.

…………

During lunch break, the dense trees block out the scorching sun and cast refreshing shade for people to cool off.

In front of the stone table, Gui Yanye seemed to have digested everything that happened in the morning. Although there was no bright smile on her pretty face, the dark clouds in her beautiful eyes were much gone.

The girl is not good at communication. She has no friends to confide in, so she is used to digesting her negative emotions alone. She is very good at it, which sounds somewhat pathetic. It seems that Gui Yanye's heart has become fragmented because it cannot bear too many emotions. Repairing it again and again is ultimately like quenching thirst with a plum in the sky. The scarred heart gradually closes up. As long as there are not too many involvements, it will not be hurt.

It is precisely because the original owner's personality is extremely similar to that of Katsura Kotonoha that Yuichi can empathize with this compassionate girl and favor her.

Today's lunch was still sumptuous, and Youyi sighed with relief for his empty wallet.

Lunch was over, and the forest breeze blew past at the right time, taking away the heat from Youyi's body. While he felt comfortable, sleepiness and laziness spread in his mind.

Miura Yumiko's messages seemed to be sent on time. It was probably because of the scare Yuichi gave her last time that caused the interval between her sending text messages to extend to one minute.

After a short rest, Yuichi was ready to go to the library. It was Yuichi's movement that helped Gui Yanye to utter the words that were stuck in her throat:

"Yu-chan!"
