“I see. I’m glad to hear that. Let’s go?”
Well, the bell already rang and although the conflict was already resolved, I doubt she already had an answer ready to give .
She’s already aware of my multiple relationships, it will take her so ti to think if she wants to enter it completely.
And if she’s going to pick Ogawa, she wouldn’t embrace like this if that’s her answer.
Staying in this position for a while, Hina then lifted my head and kissed , with the sa intensity as yesterday.
Pulling up from a crouching position, the two of us ended up standing in place. Nonetheless, our lips never left each other.
“Ruki…”
As she began calling out my na in between our exchange of kisses, Hina guided my arms to her back, wordlessly telling to return her embrace.
Perhaps, she’s trying to drown herself from to forget about Ogawa. However, I was aware that no matter how much we kissed or beca this intimate, that guy would be like an unerasable stain on her mind.
That’s why the only solution for that at the mont was to continue drowning her in my affection.
After holding Hina like she wanted, I then leveled it up by lifting her and sitting her on the table where we ate earlier.
With her hands clutched tightly on , Hina didn’t put what I did to her mind. In fact, she even beca more eager as she began sucking on my tongue, my lips and down to my neck.
Pulling her up, I copied what she did.
Just like this, what we’re doing was gradually escalating.
However… before we thoroughly dive down to more… daring things to drown her with my affection, the dreaded bell for the fifth period finally rang out and filled every corner of the school.
As if it’s a wake-up call for her, Hina shyly lifted her head to et my gaze once more.
I smiled and nodded at her as if telling her that it’s fine, she didn’t need to think about what happened.
Hina shook her head though and before I knew it, she already pulled on my collar as she used my chest to hide her face from .
And from down there, Hina’s voice began to enter my ears once more. ”Ruki, I… We don’t have enough ti but… can you hear out? No… You don’t need to hear out, I just want to release what’s inside …”
Hina briefly lifted her gaze to see nodding at her. My hand also moved from her back to the back of her head as I began to stroke it while holding her close to .
After a while, she began with what she planned to do.
To release whatever was inside her. It could be her grievance or anything. Nonetheless, I patiently waited and listened to her as I continued to stroke her head.
“I’m an idiot but at the sa ti, I am a bad friend. I… was aware… that in his eyes, I’m only a friend, a sister if you can call it like that. However, I kept on waiting for him. And as expected, my wait never paid off. Nanami arrived and with just one look, the guy with whom I spent most of my years was instantly infatuated. To make matters worse, the girl was the sa.”
“I thought ‘it’s just a little crush, it will pass’. But years passed and before the end of our 2nd year in middle school, Nanami told us that she’s going to study abroad. Upon hearing that, among everyone in our circle, I was the only one who rejoiced. I got away with telling it’s a joke but Nanami being Nanami, I knew that she’s aware of how I rejoiced in the news of her leaving Ogawa’s sight.”
“I know she’s treating as her best friend. But Ruki, I’m a bad girl. I might be showing that I am also her best friend but… it was all fake. And even if Nanami was aware of it, she continued treating as one.”
“When she returned… and began taking interest in you, I once again rejoiced. That’s why I approached you… but you… what did you like about ? That’s still a mystery to . Why instead of trying to work with to make Nanami yours, you instead told how you also want .”
“It’s the first ti. The first ti soone confessed to like that. I don’t know. Perhaps because of how I openly showed how close I was to Ogawa, no one tried to confess to or even thought of making a move. You’re the only one.”
“That’s why… I beca confused and curious. Truthfully, I am more curious about why you like despite my clear shortcomings. I’m unlikeable. I’m a selfish scher who only moved for my own benefit. Ruki. Tell , why? Why are you patiently going after even after…” Hina paused at this point as I heard the faint sound of a teardrop hitting the floor. “… even after I told you that I still wanted to be with him.”
I thought of answering her. However, she didn’t really give a chance. Hina raised her head and began reaching in to kiss again before she went back to my chest and continued. “But it’s funny… If you didn’t appear before , I would still be the sa girl. The sa girl who’s waiting for her childhood friend to put her in his eyes.”
At this point, I understood that the kiss we shared and we did in this brief ti beca the switch to open these bottled-up feelings of hers.
Her hand that was clutching my back tightened as she began using my chest to wipe the teardrops that were threatening to form again. One teardrop already landed on the ground, I guess she’s trying not to cry and make her eyes sore. We still have to return to the classroom after all.
Or can we? Should I let her rest for the rest of the PE Class? They will wonder about where we’ve gone.
Ah. Wait. Is it ti to use the infirmary again?
Well, at the mont, there’s still ti for us to get back.
Nonetheless, if the ti wasn’t enough, I’ll bring her to the infirmary and ssage Satsuki, Nami or Aya about us going there using the excuse of Hina being sick.
Today is a free day for us for the PE Class because of winning that activity this Tuesday. However, we still needed to show up there at the gymnasium.
Besides, Eguchi-sensei would probably look for . And although she wouldn’t be helping Eguchi-sensei today, Orimura-sensei might also show up… If that teacher didn’t see , she might speculate sothing again.
Haa… well, let’s not think about that for now. This girl in my arms still needed my attention and presence.
After wiping those tears, Hina continued from where she left off, “Waiting for her childhood friend to see her as a woman in love with her.”
I held her head against my chest and tightened my arms around her shoulder.
“I tried to confess to him more than once and every ti, I was t with disappointnt. His excuses were neverending. Like you said. He’s aware. He’s clearly aware of my feelings for him. But he’s not ready to hear it or he didn’t really want to hear it. He must be thinking that if he rejects , I will not be his childhood friend anymore. And that I will be leaving his side. That’s how I see it. My relationship with him.” Ending her words like that, Hina lifted her gaze once more and showed the bitter and forced smile on her lips.
