t with the mood Mikoto-san was in yesterday, maybe it was because she was weak from the fever, but I think she might not be offended if I patted her on the head.

 

Why am I thinking about Mikoto-san?

 

As I was pondering, Yuki looked into my eyes.

 

“What’s wrong?”

 

“Nothing.”

 

I shook my head and started walking.

Yuki, walking half a step behind me, called out to me.

 

“Perhaps you’re thinking of ways to reconcile with Kaho?”

 

“No…”

 

“I’ll do my best to think of a way for you two to make up… so why don’t you tell me what happened yesterday?”

 

I had no idea how to make up with Kaho, and there was no way I was going to tell Yuki what happened yesterday.

I was wondering how to answer her, and then I didn’t have to worry about it.

 

A girl appeared from the entrance of a pharmacy halfway up the hill.

The slender girl was wearing a pale blue one-piece dress that looked very neat and clean.

 

It was Mikoto-san.

Perhaps noticing me, Mikoto-san’s face lit up.

 

“Akihara-kun.
You’re late.
I got tired of waiting, so I came to the pharmacy alone.
Thanks to you, I’m feeling much better.
It might have been better if I hadn’t been naked yesterday.”

 

Mikoto-san said quickly, sounding happy and a little embarrassed.

As I froze, unable to respond, Mikoto-san tilted her head cutely.

 

“Why are you frozen? Are you coming home with me? We can have dinner already.
Dinner, what shall we have?”

 

Mikoto-san said happily, then looked at Yuki in her uniform behind me and gave me a strange look.

Mikoto-san didn’t know Yuki.

And Yuki was walking a bit far from me.

 

Therefore, Mikoto-san didn’t think that Yuki was my acquaintance. 

Not good.

Very bad.

 

I had no choice but to say.

 

“Mikoto-san.
This is Yukino Sakurai, a classmate of mine from middle school.”

 

Hearing that, Mikoto-san’s face suddenly turned pale.

Yuki, on the other hand, also looked shocked and stiffened.

 

When Yuki finally opened her mouth, she said.

 

“What do you mean? You are Mikoto-san from the next class, right? You and Aki-kun go home together, have dinner together at night, and then you were naked yesterday, that’s …”

 

“Well, you know, Yuki …”

 

I stuttered.

How should I explain it?

 

Should I honestly tell her that we live in the same apartment?

What would Mikoto-san want to do?

 

She was frozen in place and seemed incapable of responding.

 

Before I could open my mouth, Yuki said.

 

“It’s terrible, … Aki-kun.
You’re dating Mikoto-san? And you live together? I’m sure you’ve done a lot of naughty things, too.
Kaho saw it yesterday and was hurt…”

 

“Goh, it’s a misunderstanding.”

 

I got stuck in an attempt to explain.

Yuki is shedding tears from her eyes.

 

Teary-eyed Yuki said in a fading voice.

 

“Aki-kun, have you stopped caring about … Kaho?”

 

“Of course not.”

 

“Aki-kun’s … a traitor!”

 

“… You know, Yuki.
Kaho didn’t accept me.”

 

“But Aki-kun, you like Kaho, don’t you? I liked Kaho with Aki, and I liked Aki with Kaho.
Why Mikoto-san? If it’s not Kaho next to Aki, then it can be … me!”

 

Yuki exclaimed, and then she huffed and clamped her mouth shut.

Yuki wiped away her tears and stared at me, her face still red.

 

“Forget … what I said …, Aki-kun.
I … really hate you!”

 

Yuki ran away from the scene.

I and Mikoto-san looked at each other in shock.

 

Mikoto-san looked at me in shock and mumbled something that I couldn’t quite process.

 

“In other words…, Sakurai-san likes Akihara-kun, right?”

 

Mikoto-san is right.

No matter how dull I am, I can always tell.

 

 

It seems to be that Yuki likes me.
