I follow Otori, my former childhood friend, to the other two former childhood friends of mine.

“….What do you want? I don’t have time for this, get it over with.”

”Whether it gets done quickly depends on your attitude, Yuuki.”

Saying that, Otori grinned.

I don’t want to be in the same space as these guys, so I want it to be over quickly.

Not knowing what they wanted to do, I stared at them.

“Don’t glare at me like that, Yuuki. ….I have one thing to say. If you apologize now, I’ll make things right again.”

“….Huh?”

“You’re the one who started the rumor this time, right?”

Well, it’s true that I was the one who started the rumor, but even so, why should I apologize and make things go back to the way they were?

I’m trying to keep my composure because I feel like I’m losing my temper a little bit, but I’m not sure if I’m doing okay.

“First of all, I didn’t spread any rumors about you guys, so why should I apologize?”

“It’s because of you that we’re like this, you know !”

“Huh….are you talking about that body of yours? It’s only because of your neglect that it’s like that.:

When I said that in response to Kagurazaka’s words, those three looked angry and Otori clenched his fists.

”And what do you mean by making things right? You three left me, didn’t you?”

“Huh? So what is it? Yuuki should just be quiet and listen to us !”

…I can’t help but be disgusted.

They didn’t seem to think that they were the bad ones at all, so I wonder how much I have to say to them to make them satisfied. 

I’m the one on top right now.

“Yuuki…you’re so cocky, aren’t you? Are you allowed to go against us?”

“Sigh…”

Being called [Yuuki] by them is disgusting.

When I let out a sigh, Otori finally threw a punch at me, probably because he couldn’t stand it anymore.

I thought it would be fine to avoid it, but that just made things more troublesome, so I let myself get punched.

In the past, I would’ve been knocked down with that punch, but Otori’s punch wasn’t very powerful.

Perhaps surprised that I hardly moved, Otori continued to hit me after that.

I only returned the blows when he aimed at my groin and face, and then got bored and resumed talking.

“So, what happens if I disobey you?”

“You won’t be able to stay in the classroom !”

Otori said while out of breath.

“Hmm. If you do that now, you’ll just lose your position.”

“……Oh, my God, you’re so annoying ! Yuuki, you should just follow us quietly !”

“That’s right ! Gloomy and dull guys like you should be grateful to people like us who have nice faces !”

Kagurazaka and Kamisaka said so.

I pretend to think for a moment to calm myself down.

Acting strange at this point won’t do me any good.

I calm myself down and answer back to them.

“Don’t you recognize my face right now? Kamisaka. You hit on me, didn’t you? …..And have you guys ever looked in a mirror?”

“Ugh…”

Kamisaka looked a little embarrassed, perhaps because I hit on the painful spot.

At that Kamisaka, Otori who’s slumped on the ground, and Kagurazaka, who doesn’t move an inch from the bench, stared at me in surprise.

In the meantime, I took a picture of Kamisaka and Kagurazaka. I have to erase it later.

“So this is what you guys look like now, huh? What’s so “good-looking” about it?”

“T-that’s ! You’re the one who should be making us lunch boxes again !”

They’re always trying to rely on others and never try to solve problems on their own.

Even though they said [I don’t want to eat anything you’ve made !] it’d be troublesome if they said such a thing like this.

Besides, I can’t afford to cook for them, and I don’t intend to.

“….Is that all you’re gonna say? I’m going back now.”

When I said so and was about to leave, I was grabbed by the arm afterwards.

I don’t know who it was, but it felt bad, so I shook the hand off and left and opened the door to the rooftop.

“I’m going to make you regret this !”

“…Is that so? I wonder which one of us will regret it.”

I heard a discarded line, as if they had given up pursuing me.

I responded with a smirk and closed the door to the rooftop.

Sigh….I’m going to have to erase the photo. I don’t even want to see their faces.

Then I stop the recording and check it out.

There was the sound of him punching me and their rude words to me, so I saved it and went back to my classroom.
