“N, no, why is the door closed—-”

“So?”

“Eh, no, um…”

I never thought that Hatsune would become salty, so I didn’t look up how to deal with people who have this behavior. What should I do!?

“H, hey? Hatsune? D, did I do something?”

“…nothing?”

“T, tell me if I did something to you!”

“……”

Door opens sfx.

“T, thank you, Hatsune.”

Then I faced Hatsune in the doorway and seriously questioned her.

“Hatsune, did I do something wrong?”

“……..Sorry, So-kun.”

“Eh?”

Then Hatsune showed me a magazine. And there it was…

“If you can’t push him, try pulling! Even the most reluctant boyfriend will think about you all day long!”

It said.

“…..Ha?”

“W, well, I always push you, so I thought I could get your attention by doing this, but I’m not sure how much was appropriate, and I think it’s better to just be me!”

“….Ha!?”

What was that!? I feel like an idiot for having spent the whole day wondering what I’ve done wrong.

“I’m sorry, So-kun, it was a mistake to do this…”

“Y, you’re right, I was seriously worried about it, so don’t do this—–”

“That’s the thing….”

Hatsune’s mood returns to her usual mood.

“Why did you come home so late today? You aren’t in any clubs, and it’s not like you are on any committees.”

“Eh!? Well…”

Th, this is bad, I called it a consultation, but in the end I ended up talking normally to Tsukiai. I’d promised Hatsune that we’d only be allowed to catch up on conversations three times, but today’s change in Hatsune had made me forget…

B, but, if I lied here and she found out later, that would really be the end of everything….I’m a little scared, but I’ll tell her the truth.

“A, actually—–”

Then I told that I tried to talk to Tsukiai about her, but we ended up talking about light novels.

“Hee, did you…break your promise?”

“W, well…”

As I waited for Hatsune’s next words, wondering what kind of punishment I would receive, I was shocked to hear her say.

“Well, I’ll forgive you this time, because I missed up and because I treated you like that, you broke your promise.”

No way, I broke my promise but Hatsune said something like that.

“A, are you sure?”

“Yes, but next time don’t break a promise, okay?”

“Ah, y, yes.”

Did she really forgive me….? The usual, or rather the past Hatsune would have definitely said “Are you cheating on me? Hey, are you?”

Maybe, as I felt a while ago, Hatsune is really trying to change.

“I’ll change out of my uniform.”

“Yeah.”

Then I went back to my room and changed out of my uniform into my loungewear…

-The doorway where So-kun disappeared-

“……..”

I didn’t think that after all the physical and mental pain I went through to treat So-kun like that, the result would be something like this….

And to give him a chance to talk to someone other than me….It was a really big mistake.

""

“And yet…”

That woman, who took advantage of So-kun’s problems and talked with him until this late…

“I won’t forgive her…”

I decided to wait for So-kun to change clothes, while feeling the desire to kill the pest that was gathering around So-kun.
