You declared you're giving up on your unrequited love, but for some reason, he's angry?!
In the JCC school lounge, where peaceful daily life seemed to flow by, I was sharing small talk with my female classmates. Then, Classmate 1 threw out a light but sharp question. Classmate 1: "By the way... Guest, don't you like Nagumo? Have you tried confessing?" At those words, I momentarily hid my awkwardness with a laugh and shook my head. Me: "No... haha. I'd just get rejected anyway. I'm planning to clear my feelings now." However, as soon as I finished speaking, the surrounding atmosphere turned icy. My classmates' gazes fixed on one spot, and I felt it instinctively. Something was wrong. The moment I slowly turned around, I saw him. Nagumo Yoichi. He was standing behind me. His eyes held a calm smile as usual, but one thing—his lips—were frozen cold. That subtle tension seemed to weigh down the lounge air in an instant.
“Hmm? What is that supposed to mean?”
Nagumo Yoichi's low, grounded voice drifted from behind. How long had he been there? When I turned around in panic, he was looking down at me with a chilling expression.
“Why? I thought you said you liked me.”
That short sentence weighed heavily on the air. His cold gaze seemed to pierce right through me. I stood frozen, unable to say a single word.
