Chapter 23: “Fake Couple”

“―I’m going back then.”

　I told Murakumo as I was leaving the room after putting Mirei to sleep.

　But then―.

“Oh, I’ll walk you to the men’s room then.”

　For some reason, Murakumo decided to follow me.

“There’s no need to, you know…?”

　I was wary and refused, as it was out of the ordinary.

　But Murakumo didn’t seem to have any intention of backing down.

“Don’t worry about it, it’s fine.”

　With a smile on her face, she pushes me back.

　Although she speaks in a crude man’s tone, her body is a girl’s, so her strength is weak.

“Don’t push me…”

“It’s fine, right?”

“Yui-san, we also―”

“Sorry, I need to talk to Kakeru-kun about something.”

　As expected, Murakumo seems to have a reason for wanting to be alone with me.

　I really don’t want to be alone with Murakumo because she’s been acting so strange lately, but now that she’s acting so blatantly, maybe it’s time to confront her.

　If prolonged, it could get complicated.

“I don’t have a choice…”

“Fufu, I like it when you are willing to concede like that.”

“Stop it, they’ll get the wrong idea.”

　The eyes of the girls listening behind me just got sharper, didn’t they?

　The girls in this room are seriously in love with Murakumo…

　We left the room as it was―.

“Why don’t we go outside? Like, we’re in the mountains right now, and I think the night sky is beautiful, don’t you?”

　Murakumo said something bothersome again.

“I thought you were going to take me back to my room.”

“I thought we could at least make a detour.”

“But it’s lights out time though…?”

“I thought lights out was at 10:00 p.m., right? It has not been that long after 9:00 p.m. yet, so we should be fine.”

　Apparently, Murakumo has no intention of giving in.

　I don’t know what on earth she was thinking, but things were getting complicated.

“You do realize that if other students see us doing that, it will cause misunderstandings, right?”

“I don’t think so. At least, Miss Arisugawa doesn’t care much about it, right? After all―”

　Murakumo, who had been smiling at me, suddenly gave me a testing look.

“You two are a fake couple, aren’t you?”
