Chapter 45: Step up to the Plate Because You Want to Understand
Kentaro-kun is way below my imagination, and Masataka-kun is kind of. cunning in all sorts of ways!
Matsuyuki shouted loudly as if she had exploded.
B-bad huh
The explosion was received up close, and Osako seemed to be damaged.
W-what do you mean by cunning in many ways,?
Small damage to me, too, as I was hiding. Did Matsuyuki think I was a cunning guy? .
But before I knew it, everyone was getting along well? I was worried, hurt? I feel like an idiot?
Yeah
Chinatsu-chan easily affirmed it. Osako was a bit surprised, but I was surprised, too.
But it did not end there for Chinatsu-chan.
I think I know a little bit about how Matsuyuki-san feels.

Chinatsu-san, you know how I feel?
Its not that I understand it completely, its more that were a little alike. Matsuyuki-san, arent you afraid of people around you?
Matsuyukis expression clouded over a little. Maybe for the first time, I saw her weakness.
I think I was also afraid of people around me. So I kept my guard up all the time, and when I did that, people started to look at me harshly. Before I knew it, people around me were afraid of me.
Chinatsu-chans expression relaxed, nostalgic for the past. In fact, it was probably already in the past for her.
I had to be very wary of my surroundings, and I didnt want to let other people near me. Thats why there were really few people to talk to me. If I had stayed the same, I would have been lonely.
It sounded like she was not lonely now. Of course theres no way Id let Chinatsu-chan be lonely.
Its different from me, but isnt Matsuyuki-san the same? I cant deny that you act to protect yourself. I cant deny it, but its still stupid to overdo it. I think so because its what Ive done myself.
I dont know why, I cant seem to leave you alone, Matsuyuki-san. Maybe Ive become like Masa-kun. I want you to tell me about yourself, just like he did with me.
Mine?
Yeah. Thats why??
Chinatsu-chan continued with a smile.
Be my friend.
These were the words that took all her courage.
As she said, Chinatsu-chan was concerned about Matsuyuki and could not leave her alone.
The reason I set up that meeting was for Osakos apology and also for Chinatsu-chan to try to approach Matsuyuki.
If Chinatsu-chan decides she wants to do something, I want to help her do it.
Friend .
Matsuyuki lowered her gaze. The hand held by Chinatsu-chan was there.
She had not let go of it for a long time. Even I, who was not a participant, could feel the strong will from the hand that had been holding her for a long time.
Of course. I used to be a terrible person to a lot of people, too. Kentaro was not wrong when he cursed me.
I didnt understand Matsuyukis feelings.
But Chinatsu-chan must have sensed something similar to herself from Matsuyuki. Thats why she was taking her hand like that.
The affection Chinatsu-chan showed was what I loved so much about her.
Chi, Chinatsu-san,
Yes.
PlePlease be friends with me
Fufu. Im asking for it.
And looking at Matsuyuki, Chinatsu-chans idea must have been correct.
It was not her usual fake smile. It was a smile from the bottom of her heart.
The heck? You can smile cutely.
I muttered unintentionally.
I had been in contact with Matsuyuki in the same class last year, but I had never seen her smile like that before.
I had the impression that Matsuyuki smiled a lot, but I had the feeling that she kept her distance from me. I had talked to her a fair amount, but I felt like she didnt treat me like a friend.
As expected of Chinatsu-chan.
Chinatsu-chan and Matsuyuki laughed at each other. Osako seemed to be taken aback by the cute girls smile.
No one would believe now that these three had been in a shuraba not so long ago.
Thats how friendly the atmosphere was.
I quietly left the place.
As I was not a concerned party, there was no need for me to watch over them any longer.
