The real cause of his grumpiness (1)
Yuugo seemed to be busy working until late at night every day, to make up for the days off he took during my heat.
He was also working until late yesterday, and it made me wonder if he was overworking himself.
Even so, he never failed to call me every morning.
Though, it was only for a short time when Yuugo was getting ready for work.
“Are going to be late again today?”
{I’ll try to leave early today. Especially we have that for tomorrow.}
“…You’re going to come to my place tomorrow, right?”
{That’s right.}
Tomorrow, Yuugo would come to my house.
He came to greet my family.
I hadn’t seen Yuugo for four days since that day. It’s only been a few days, but it felt like I haven’t seen him for a long time.
{I want to see you soon.}
“Me too. I can’t wait to see you.”
When I said what I honestly felt, I could hear Yuugo’s laughter on the other side of the phone.
My heart raced at the sound of his happy voice.
{Do you have any plans for today?}
“I’m thinking to do some futsal for the first time in a while to get some exercise. My mom will keep asking me about you if I just stay at home.”
{So she’s still asking you about me? Don’t say anything weird to her.}
“I won’t.”
Anyway, what did he mean by saying anything weird?
If anything, my mom knew about Yuugo more than I did.
Apparently, she wasn’t kidding when she said she was a fan of Yuugo. She would tell me a lot of information about Yuugo that I didn’t know.
The only problem was she wanted to hear my stories of Yuugo, it was a bit troublesome.
{Then, I’d better get going.}
“Good luck with your work. Be careful out there.”
{Yeah. I’m off.}
The call was ended. This moment felt really lonely.
If only I could always be with him all the time…
Well, I knew something like that is practically impossible. But, I just wanted to have that conversation from earlier directly with him. I wanted to touch him.
Those kinds of helpless desires were accumulating in my mind.
The reason why I went out to exercise today was to relieve myself of such desire. When I was at home, I couldn’t help but think about Yuugo and feel restless.
I left the house a little after ten in the morning.
It was still morning, but the sun was already shining so brightly that it was painful. I headed to the futsal court while picking my way through the shaded area.
Suddenly, I felt something strange about my reflection at the store glass window. It was because of the neck guard on my neck.
After the summer break, I also planned to wear it to school. All this time, I always avoided wearing it because I wanted to hide the fact I was an omega… but I thought averting my eyes from the reality like that wasn’t a good thing.
But I guess it wasn’t that easy to get used to it. I felt strange when I see myself while wearing it, and more than anything, that the stares from other people bothered me.
If it was like this, maybe it would be better to just show the bite mark. Because that way people wouldn’t notice until they got near me.
If the scar fades a little more by the end of the summer break, I might as well do that.
“Huh? Sou? So it’s really you, Sou!”
I was almost at the futsal court when someone called my name.
As I glanced around to search for the source of the voice, Narumi waved his hand from across the street. Narumi’s pair, Amagi, was also next to him.
They were walking in the opposite direction of the futsal court, which means they were probably going somewhere together.
“Sou! Hold on, wait right there!”
Narumi’s loud voice made me stand still from surprise.
Amagi looked at Narumi’s back with a dumbfounded expression as he rushed toward the crosswalk.

“Sou, about that thing on your neck-”
That was what first came out from Narumi’s mouth as he gasped for breath.
Apparently, he hurriedly rushed to me because he noticed my neck guard. As always, Narumi is very observant about things like this.
“…What happened for you to suddenly wear that? Did something happen?”
“Err, no… nothing.”
I guess something did happen.
Should I tell Narumi that I became a pair with Yuugo?
The only people who knew about it were my family.
It wasn’t really a secret, but I think it wasn’t something to talk about openly.
But I have talked to Narumi about this. It was also him who taught me many things about being a pair with someone.
…What should I do?
As I was hesitating to talk about it or not, Amagi caught up with us from behind. He approached us slowly but with large strides, with no hint of rushing, and stood right behind Narumi.
He looked down at my face and furrowed his brows.
“You… already got a pair, so why’d you wear that thing?”
Before I could say anything, Amagi revealed it all.

Before I knew what was going on, I was brought to Narumi’s house.
It seemed like they were on their way home from shopping.
It was my first time going to Narumi’s house. Narumi’s house means that it was also Amagi’s house, because they were a pair…
Right now, I was sitting alone with Amagi on the living room sofa, facing each other.
Narumi said that he was going to get some drinks and left the front door. He hasn’t come back since then. Where the heck had he gone to?
I didn’t really care about the drinks, I just wanted him to come back as soon as possible.
Amagi, who was sitting in front of me, kept furrowing his brows.
I’m pretty sure his expression wasn’t this intense when we talked at the changing room the other day. If anything, I think it got worse from the first time I met him.
The look on his face was so scary that it made me want to run away.
Still, I couldn’t leave until Narumi came back. I kept glancing back and forth at the door where he had left.
“What is it? You want to go to the toilet?”
“No… nothing.”
Maybe it was because I was too fidgety, but he asked that to me in a very grumpy voice. I quickly shook my head to the side.
Ah, I could’ve left my seat if I had nodded to that question… it was already too late, though.
