Chapter 546 – Side Story IF. Will Fate Take Its Course? #4
“Haa… Haa…”
I thought it was close, but it was quite far.
How on earth did the beggar know that Matsuda had come all the way here?
At the end, he even said something strange in an immortal tone… Could it be that he was the one who sent me here?
Because you behave like a beggar on purpose?
It makes no sense.
Although it wasn’t quite a sprint, Miyuki was running quite fast, and while looking around for fear of missing Matsuda, Miyuki took a breath and lost her thoughts when she reached the bridge.
It is a fairly sparsely populated place. It’s also quiet.
When I looked around, there were only people passing by on the bridge, and there was no sign of Matsuda.
So, did the beggar man lie?
No, let’s look a little further. Shouldn’t we have faith?
It felt good, and it was raining…
“What are you?”
As Miyuki was thinking those thoughts, a man’s voice faintly reached his ears.
Miyuki, who heard that somewhat angry tone, quickly moved to a position where she could see under his legs.
‘Hmm…’
Several dark figures are doing something below.
The exact number is seven. The composition was as if four people of various body types were pressing on a man and two women.
Miyuki, who was trying to distinguish people’s faces by opening his eyes, was startled.
This is because the identity of the man whose shoulder was being pushed by the fingers of a large fat man coming forward was none other than Matsuda.
Starting with the body shape and looking at the facial features, it was clear. He was Matsuda.
Moreover, looking at the clothes and hairstyles of the two people behind Matsuda, they were clearly his middle school friends.
Yes, the friends who went with him that day to pick out fancy items.
‘What…?’
Why on earth is Matsuda with his friends?
Moreover, it feels like she is trying to protect her friends.
Confusing. Doesn’t Matsuda know her friends from middle school?
Did Matsuda accidentally find and save the two people who were about to be hunted?
The situation is very complicated. There must be a lot of women being hunted by Yankees in the downtown area… Does this make sense?
Is this the fate I only heard about?
Does this mean that Matsuda and himself are a match made in heaven?
Anyway, I think the scenario was slightly altered because he didn’t keep his promise to his friends… It wasn’t a bad trend.
He thanked me for saving his friends and felt like he could become closer to Matsuda.
After that, the distance gradually gets closer… Mmmm. I’m glad there’s so much I can do.
‘Oh, that’s right.’
Right now, it seemed like I couldn’t just let my imagination run wild.
This is because the Yankee’s voice became louder as he pushed Matsuda’s shoulder right in front of him.
“What are you? What are you meddling with… Child…”
Yankee suddenly became irritated.
It looks like he’s pushing quite hard, but Matsuda doesn’t budge, so I guess he’s embarrassed.
Matsuda is very strong.
“What are you talking about, you idiot?”
The Yankee seems to have given up on pushing and puts pressure on Matsuda with a loud voice.
Matsuda shrugged his shoulders and answered.
“People.”
“… Are you kidding me?”
“I’m serious. “You answered.”
Even though it was clear that the situation was serious, Miyuki unconsciously felt embarrassed after hearing Matsuda’s words.
Because the answer was just like Matsuda.
Relaxed, confident, and shameless.
“You bastard…!!?”
Yankee, who was swearing and trying to push Matsuda with all his might, suddenly started screaming.
This is because Matsuda grabbed Yankee’s wrist that was touching his shoulder and twisted it upward.
In that situation, the Yankee, who was twice the size of Mini and Matsuda, quickly backed away, letting out an uncharacteristically childlike scream.
“Kwaaaaa…!”
When Matsuda lets go of her hand and sees Yankee clutching his wrist in pain, it feels like watching a comedy show.
“What a crazy bastard…”
At the same time, Yankee’s colleagues behind him said harsh words.
Miyuki, who saw that, quickly picked up her cell phone and took a picture of the police station number.
If things continue like this, there is a very high possibility that a fight will break out, and I would hate to see Matsuda get hurt.
In that sense, we have to deal with the Supreme Circle, a cancerous part of Yeboni Academy, to which Matsuda currently belongs, but for now, let’s report it first.
“That’s the police station over there!? There’s a fight here now! These gangsters are threatening people! I think it’s going to kill me…!! The location is…”
As soon as the police answered the phone, Miyuki loudly exaggerated and mediated the situation.
The eyes of the seven people under her bridge turned to her when they heard her voice.
“What? Report?”
“Hey, hey…! Let’s just go.”
The embarrassed Yankees muttered among themselves, glanced at Matsuda and Miyuki, who were standing proudly, and left, taking the fat boy who was still in pain with them.
“You remembered my face.”
As expected of these braggarts, they did not forget to threaten Matsuda like he was a cartoon extra.
‘Thank goodness…’
I avoided fighting.
If the Yankees hadn’t been a little behind, it would have ended in a fistfight, but it was fortunate that they were like extras.
Miyuki breathed a sigh of relief, stuck her head out, and saw three people coming out from under the bridge.
“Thank you… I really appreciate it.”
“No. What…”
I feel proud to see Matsuda being embarrassed by his friends’ 90-degree greetings, but I also feel strange for some reason.
I didn’t know it at the time, but I felt something when I came back.
The gazes that fall on Matsuda every time he passes through the school hallways.
She was rumored to be a bitch, so there were a lot of people who looked at her and wanted to avoid her, but there were just as many people who looked at her face.
I like the low-pitched voice, and I’m tall and have a nice body, so it’s only natural…
I couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed… Just a little.
Miyuki, whose monopoly was overflowing, came to his senses when his friends looked in his direction and waved his hand.
“Miyuki! How did you know!?”
“You must have seen us! Thank you!”
In fact, her friends got caught up accidentally while looking for Matsuda, but I’ll just ignore it because it’s a good thing.
But I feel sorry for no reason.
I feel like I am a victim of Matsuda and her own sweet event that will happen in the future.
‘I need to buy you coffee.’
Miyuki, unable to bury the unnecessary guilt in her heart, smiled awkwardly at her friends who were wandering up the stairs.
**
“Are you in the same class as Miyuki? It’s really awesome…! Can you at least give me your contact information? “I want to buy you a meal… Why are you like this…?”
Miyuki pushed the back of her friend who was showing his ambition towards Matsuda.
“Bring the coffee and go quickly.”
“Why are you trying to kick me out?”
“Who said they were kicking me out…!”
I had a feeling that her friend would be interested in Matsuda.
As expected, Matsuda must not take his eyes off her even for a moment.
So she should quickly do some tutoring with him or make a date with him.
Also, if her friend said that Miyuki herself broke her promise, there was a possibility that it would arouse Matsuda’s suspicion.
That’s why it was right for the two of them to quickly let go and spend some alone time together.
“Go quickly. “You must have been very surprised, but it’s better to get a good rest.”
“It was terrifying… But I contacted you…”
“Take a taxi and go. Okay?”
Miyuki, who cleverly interrupted her friend’s conversation, glanced sideways at Matsuda, who was casually sipping his coffee on her side, and led her friends out of the café, looking at each other and rubbing her chest.
Afterward, she coaxed a friend who was showing affection for Matsuda and sent him home, and she came back inside and stood in front of him.
“Is it delicious?”
“It just tastes like coffee.”
“So, is the coffee delicious?”
“I don’t know the taste, but it’s refreshing.”
The coffee in Matsuda’s hand was already running out.
You drink iced Americano like water.
It’s very Matsuda.
“Thank you for today. “I wanted to protect my friends.”
“Okay then.”
Even the way she raised her sassy cheeks and even her answers were like Matsuda at this time of year.
So I’m happy.
“But I wasn’t in a hurry, so I couldn’t ask about the situation. What happened?”
“I was walking around on the street when the guys I saw earlier grabbed your friends’ arms and tried to force them to go play, so I followed them.”
“You have a very strong sense of justice, don’t you? “I saw it again.”
“Is that so?”
“Huh. “It’s also a huge coincidence.”
“That’s right.”
Of course, Matsuda knew a little bit about Miyuki’s friends, so she rolled up her sleeves, but there was no way Miyuki knew that.
Shoot!
The drizzle suddenly turns into heavy rain in an instant, hitting the transparent café window.
The corners of Miyuki’s mouth rose as she turned her head.
“It’s really refreshing, isn’t it? It’s good.”
“Do you like the rain?”
“I…”
Miyuki, who was about to answer yes, stopped.
Does Matsuda know that she disliked Rain?
No, I didn’t know. At this time, she and he regarded each other as thorns in their eyes.
It means that they didn’t know each other’s tastes at all.
Matsuda loved rainy days from the beginning.
Here, we could become closer through common interests… But Miyuki decided not to do that.
There must be differences between each other to make it fun to fit together.
Of course, I’m already soaked in Matsuda’s taste, but let’s act.
I think that just a little bit of pushing and pushing will help attract each other even more.
This will not be a blemish on the development of my relationship with Matsuda.
Miyuki, determined to follow that intuition, answered.
“Usually it was just like that, but today I like it.”
“Why is today good?”
“For some reason, I feel like something good will happen.”
“That’s a vague answer.”
“There are no injuries, right?”
“Doesn’t exist. But how did you find us?”
“Why are you curious about that?”
“Because it’s fascinating.”
“I was just wandering around and found it. So I said it. “It’s a huge coincidence.”
“Is it? Anyway, you owe me.”
“Huh…? Me?”
“Uh.”
“Why? “For saving my friend?”
“No. How can that become your debt?”
“Then what kind of debt are you talking about?”
“Your friend tried to get my number, but you forced him to send it to me. Because I don’t like you.”
That’s not it, it’s because my friend is flirting.
Miyuki swallowed hard and raised the corners of her mouth.
“That’s not the reason…”
“Then what is the reason?”
“No, well… Um…”
“Look! “Don’t you have anything to say?”
It’s because I can’t think of an excuse right now… But it feels unfair.
Wouldn’t it be natural if I just pretended to accept it and offered to repay the favor by teaching me how to study?
No, there must be a way to make the situation much smoother than this.
“It’s raining a lot…? Do you have an umbrella?”
“No. “And you?”
“I don’t have one either.”
At times like this, I have to go to a ramen restaurant… I’m dying of regret.
Still, let’s wait. Blessed are those who endure, for they endure temptation until it explodes all at once.
Besides, since it’s best to go to that ramen shop early in the morning, I’ll have to get closer to Matsuda and hope that he will naturally take me there.
“Matsuda-kun, you always sleep during class… Why are you doing that? “Are you sleepy?”
“I sleep because I don’t know anything. Are you dissatisfied?”
“Isn’t that too crooked? “I’m trying to change the way I look at Matsuda-kun, so can you speak kinder?”
“What else should I do here to become gentle?”
“There was no need to ask if you were dissatisfied.”
“Really?”
“Huh. Anyway, I’ll have to stay here until the rain stops. Do you want to study together? Let’s try not to fall asleep tomorrow.”
“Suddenly?”
Not suddenly, but if you appreciate it, you can ask to study together.
As a class president, it’s natural to take care of students.
Is not it? Is it too strange?
“It’s like you. “Please tell me.”
Miyuki, who was wondering whether she should explain further or not, was internally delighted with Matsuda’s next words.
“Would you mind leaving me out later? The tone changes to a command tone.”
“Nope. But how are you going to teach me how to study? “You can’t believe you carry a book with you even in times like this…”
“No. You can study using your phone, and since I have memorized the scope of first-year classes, you can teach me accordingly. Or you can teach me from the basics. Because Matsuda-kun doesn’t know anything.”
“Are you ignoring me?”
“Matsuda-kun himself said he didn’t know. “Don’t you remember?”
“Ai… Just tell me first.”
Even small conversations like this are enjoyable.
It’s already troublesome if it’s like this… It’s a big deal.
While teaching me how to study, I feel like I’m laughing out loud without even realizing it.
“First period tomorrow is math, right?”
“Is that so?”
“Just take a look at the timetable. Anyway, the scope is a bit difficult, but the formula is simple.”
“It’s so difficult, but how can the formula be so simple?”
“It’s difficult because it’s difficult to apply. For now…”
Miyuki took out her cell phone.
Even when she was in first and second grade, she always kept things like workbooks in the same folder.
It’s no different now. Since my phone hasn’t changed, I can find the folder without getting stuck.
Miyuki, who was looking through the math folder while hiding his excitement, suddenly had this thought.
I’ll be sleeping with Matsuda later, but if I come back, won’t it be as painful as the first time?
Still, I don’t have to worry too much because Matsuda will value me.
I think there is no one in this world who has experienced something like this, so I am secretly looking forward to it.
“Why are you smiling so sinisterly?”
Miyuki quickly managed the strange expression that appeared inadvertently upon Matsuda’s words and made an excuse.
“I get happy thinking about torturing Matsuda-kun.”
“You’re a pervert.”
Pervert is right. In a different sense.
It’s really hard to hide your true feelings.
How long can I last? I don’t know, but after a week or so, I might lose my mind.
Still, I’m glad.
When Matsuda wasn’t in sight, she thought the event was going to fly by, but she was glad to be involved in a new incident.
It didn’t go as planned, but whatever.
What’s important is that the two of us can be together.
