There was a silent tension between the three, especially when Kanata was still hugging Tsukasa’s arm on her chest.
While Ayase didn’t understand anything, she could tell that there was something weird about the atmosphere. She didn’t know what to do and only looked at the three repeatedly without knowing what to do.
Ayase wasn’t sure, but she had a feeling that a big fight might happen, so if the fight really happened, she would save Tsukasa.
Tsukasa didn’t know what Ayase was thinking, and even if he knew, he didn’t have time to think about it since he needed to think about the countermeasure of the problem in front of him.
Touka’s eyes couldn’t be seen. The lenses of her glasses hid them. However, they seemed ominous for some reason, and they were like a storm that was about to raze the entire country.
Kanata was stuck there, and she didn’t know what to do since she just didn’t expect to see Touka when they were about to return. She wanted to explain, but no words came out of her mouth.
“…What are you two doing?” Touka asked after a pause.
During the storm, the rain had always accompanied it.
While Tsukasa couldn’t see the rain, he could see tears were about to come out from Touka’s eyes. “Sorry.” He didn’t mean this to Touka. Instead, he said this word to Kanata as he walked toward Touka. “Touka-nee, can you follow me a bit?”
“Eh?” Touka was confused, but before she reacted, she was pulled by Tsukasa somewhere.
When Tsukasa walked away, Kanata awoke and saw him get away from his arms. Hearing the “sorry” word that came from his mouth, she could only let out a long sigh, feeling disappointed but also glad at the same time.
Kanata was disappointed since Tsukasa moved toward Touka right away, but she was also glad that she wouldn’t hurt her childhood friend.
The three had been childhood friends together, and of course, Kanata didn’t want to hurt Touka.
However, the reality said otherwise since they fell for the same man.
While Kanata knew that Touka had gotten Tsukasa’s first, she just didn’t want to give up and threatened him as she kissed him. She felt that Touka was sneaky for taking his first, but at the same time, she also knew what she did was wrong, especially when she had a fiance and their relationship couldn’t be allowed by her parents.
However…
‘How can I give up, right?’
Still, when Kanata saw that Touka was almost hurt, she started to wonder whether what she was doing was right.
Kanata just wasn’t sure what to do, but one thing for sure, she didn’t want to give up on Tsukasa, and she also didn’t want to hurt Touka.
“Um… Totokubara-san?”
Kanata turned and looked at Ayase, only remembering that this girl was here. “Ayatsuji-san, can you keep this matter a secret?”
“Um… I…” There were many questions on Ayase’s head, but it was just too hard to ask, so she just subconsciously asked this question out, “Wh-What’s your relationship with Kugayama-kun?”
“…You’re really bold.” Kanata was speechless, then said, “I don’t mind telling you, but if you talk, then…” Her sweet smile seemed so scary, and from her expression, she was ready to erase Ayase’s family without hesitation.
“I-I won’t tell anyone! I swear!” Ayase said without hesitation with a scared expression.
“Well, the two of us are his girlfriends, that’s all,” Kanata said jokingly since there was no way that she could tell the truth to a stranger like Ayase, right?
“…..”
While it sounded so simple, Ayase felt that everything was so mind-blowing that she could only wake up after her body was shaken by Kanata.
“Let’s go back. You should take care of the transfer of your father to the new hospital, right?” Kanata said.
“Ah-Ah, yes!” Ayase nodded obediently, but her mind was still in a daze, thinking that if Tsukasa could have two girlfriends, then it was possible for him to have a third one too, right?
‘Wh-What are you thinking, Ayase?!’
Ayase shook her head furiously since compared to Touka or Kanata. She could see how inferior she was, making her depressed and sad.
Kanata noticed Ayase’s strange reaction, but she didn’t care about her now since she was preoccupied with what would happen to Touka and Tsukasa.
As Ayase and Kanata walked back to the academy, Tsukasa held Touka’s hand as they walked next to each other.
Touka’s head was a mess, and her head was just blank.
“Touka-nee, you remember that Kanata-nee has a fiance, right?” Tsukasa suddenly said.
“Eh?” Touka was dumbfounded, but then she nodded. “Um, what’s wrong with it?”
“Her fiance is someone she has never known and someone she doesn’t love. They will also marry after they graduate, so while she knows that she might hurt you, she asks me whether I can help her feel how normal the date is. After all, she won’t have a chance to feel it once she graduates.”
Tsukasa stopped and looked at Touka, then said, “I apologize for not saying anything to you. I’m also sorry for hurting you, but I hope you don’t misunderstand us.”
Touka felt complex and sad for Kanata when she thought that her best friend and childhood friend was going to marry someone that she didn’t love. While she might be clumsy, she wasn’t stupid since she could tell how Kanata felt toward Tsukasa. It was also the reason why she picked him up in the airport in silence without telling Kanata.
While Touka felt guilty toward Kanata, she didn’t regret it since she got Tsukasa.
However…
Touka wasn’t sure how she felt at that moment, but she felt regret right now, especially when she thought about Kanata’s situation.
“I know that I might have hurt you with my decision, but there’s also a reason why I have agreed to her request,” Tsukasa said.
Tsukasa agreed because Kanata’s body was hot.
If Tsukasa didn’t want to be killed, there was no way that he would have said that.
“Reason?” Touka was confused.
However, the fact that Tsukasa and Kanata went on a date had never changed.
“Yes, I also it’s quite close here. Follow me,” Tsukasa said.
Touka was confused, but she kept following Tsukasa until they arrived at a spacious two-story house surrounded by the wall in front of them. When she saw this house, she fell in love instantly.
“Come in,” Tsukasa said.
“Eh?” Touka was confused, but she still followed him inside. However, she was even surprised when she saw there was a chamomile flower garden inside, which happened to be her favorite flower. She quickly looked at Tsukasa and asked, “Those flowers?”
“I want to keep this matter a secret until later since this house isn’t ready yet. I plan to invite you to live with me once you graduate.”
“Eh?” Touka was surprised with a blush on her face, showing how happy she was.
Tsukasa held Touka’s hand as he looked at the chamomile flowers in front of them. “Strengths in adversity. That’s the meaning of the chamomile flowers. You have often said those words to me, and because of those words, I can be the way I am right now. I’m so glad to meet you, and I love you, Touka.”
Touka was in tears as she hugged him tightly. “I love you, Tsukasa.”
Tsukasa hugged Touka’s waist as he patted her back. “Should we try to see how soft the bed is?”
“….”
Touka was speechless, but she nodded shyly with a blush. “…Okay…”
Tsukasa locked the door without hesitation and led Touka inside the house to check how soft the bed was.
While Tsukasa and Touka started their rematch fight, he thought about his future.
Tsukasa knew that he might be stabbed at any time.
The relationship that Tsukasa had made was dangerous and dirty.
Tsukasa knew that he had hurt those girls, and he could die anytime for playing this dangerous game.
Tsukasa knew that he might be stabbed and die anytime, which was why he wasn’t going to live without regret.
With that decision, Tsukasa and Touka started their match again.
“Let’s go ahead!”
