I haven’t been able to go to the second library at all.
Sometimes, when I’m about to leave, a girl will talk to me, and I’ll nod my head in agreement.
I want to see you, Hiria-chan. I want to talk about stupid things. I want to play monster.
That day, at the chime of recess, I was surrounded by girls and playing Dekunobo. I feel like I don’t really need to be there because the girls around me are always having a blast. I wonder if that means I should just shut up and listen to what they have to say.
“Sakura-kun, Masuda-sensei called for you.”
I looked up quickly. Hooray. What I need is a hairy homeroom teacher. When I was released and rushed to the staff room, the teacher pointed his finger at the top of his own head. I spill out a sigh.
“Hey, check this out.”
“Yes.”
“And?”
“What’s that?”
“Gray hair! It wasn’t like this before! Hey, what do you think I should do? How about your dad?”
I told him to pull it out or dye it and left the room. What’s with that homeroom teacher? He’s too hairy and too free.
I was shocked. There’s still time. The second library it is.
I ran to it, which is rather far from the classroom, opened the door, and closed it gently behind me. I wonder if she’s there.
“Nekura-kun?” I heard a small voice from the back.
“It’s been a while.”
After I said that, I was wondering if it was strange that it had only been three days, when I heard a cheerful voice from the other side saying, “It’s been a while! “. Hearing her voice made me feel warm.
“Wow, you’re making me giggle! Long time no see!”
I’m confident that I’m relaxing my cheek muscles more than you were when I said that.
“Nekura-kun, after all, are you unable to make friends in class?”
“Hmm, not only can’t I make friends, but one of the girls even hates me…….”
“eh…What’s that?”
“She doesn’t want to be next to me. ……”
I remembered how Saionji-san had avoided me in the principal’s office. I don’t know what I’ve done, but I’m sure that a celestial being like her would be able to understand my dangerous inner world. I’m afraid of those eyes that seem to see through everything.
The only person who can talk normally with me like this, and the only person I can talk normally with like this, is Hiria-chan.
“What, by the girl sitting next to you? That’s really awful. ……”
It wasn’t the girl sitting next to me, but I didn’t correct her. When I tried to explain it, it became a detailed story.
“But that had never happened before, so maybe I did something.”
“No, you didn’t! It’s because she’s an evil girl”
–The hard tone of her voice makes me chuckle as I think back on things.
“It’s not that I’m being bullied or avoided, but I’m just not good with girls. ……”
“I see.”
“Ah, Hiria-chan is easy to talk to. It’s not like I dislike it or anything!”
She’s getting easier and easier to talk to.
But the reason it’s easy to talk to her is partly that we haven’t met face to face. It’s also good that she doesn’t know my name. It’s much easier to remain calm because no one is thinking it’s me. At this point, I still had no intention of meeting her face to face and telling her my name. But I still want to talk to her more.
“…… I wish I was in your class.”
What a delightful thing this girl says.
It makes my heart flutter.
“Yes, you’re right. That would have been fun.”
When I said that, she laughed happily behind the bookshelf. And then she giggled some more as if she was laughing so hard that it became funny. She’s quite the laughter box. Hiria-chan is really cute. I think I’m going to like her. I’m trying my best not to, but I’m about to. I’m so creepy.
“You know what, Nekura-kun?”
After laughing for a while, she said in an oddly formal tone.
“Here’s something.”
A rolled-up piece of paper was thrown from the top of the bookshelf. I caught it with one hand and opened it to find a printed note with a picture of a mysterious, not-so-pretty real gorilla sticking out his thumb, and a handwritten alphabet.
“That’s …… my …… contact information.”
“Eh, eh..!”
“No, it’s email.. just email. We don’t get to see each other very often, and depending on the timing, we might not run into each other. …… I thought it would be less dangerous if we could just say I’m here when one of us goes to the back and wants to talk. “
I looked at it and saw “nattodaisuki_gyudon_love@” …… and sure enough, it was an email address. I don’t even get to know her name from that. All I know is that she loves beef bowls and natto.
“I, I see!”
I nodded deeply even though I couldn’t even see her.
Or rather, she somehow understood our mutual intentions of not wanting to show our faces and not wanting to give our names, and wanted to exchange contact information for our safety. How kind. She’s kind, smart, cute, and too strange in the head.
Fortunately, my address is also namahage0923, so she wouldn’t know my name. It has my birthday on it, but I don’t think you’d be able to tell from that. I don’t know much about it, but I think it’s more anonymous than other messaging apps.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket. Everyone usually pretends like they don’t have such a thing, but they probably do. Because if you’re found with it at school, it will be confiscated until after school. I have one, too. Even though I only communicate with my home most of the time, I do have one.
I put in the address and send a message out.
I’ve never exchanged contact information with a girl before. I was very nervous…….
“Oh, it’s here.”
“Yes.”
“Why is it Namahage ……?”
“No, There’s no meaning to it ……”
I heard a voice puffing out. It was followed by a cute little giggle. Hiria-chan always laughs at my frigid behavior. She laughs in a cute voice. That alone makes me feel happy.
“What do you do on your days off, Nekura-kun?”
“I usually work part-time.”
“Part-time job?”
“A lot of people at our school are relatively well-off, but I had to ask my parents to let me come here. So I got a part-time job to help pay for school.”
“Ohh. That’s amazing.”
“It’s not that bad. There are a lot of bad schools near my house. …… I looked for a school with a good level of education within a manageable distance from my house, and this was the one.”
“And you don’t have any vacations at all?”
“No, I mainly work when I have a long vacation. So of course I usually have time off.”
I said that because she talked about vacations. Appealing that I’m free. It would be fun to go out with Hiria-chan. I wonder if there’s any way I can hang out with her without her face and name being known.
Wait a minute. If we both dress up in ninja costumes and meet, we can do it …….
Hiria-chan’s voice pulled me out of my silly thoughts.
“You know, even if you don’t enjoy school, having an adventure on your day off can be a good distraction.”
“What kind of adventure?”
“During spring break, I got off at a different station than usual, and it was fun.”
“Eh? Where?”
When I heard it, It was a familiar station.
“That’s my house’s …….”
Just as I was saying this, the bell rang. The break time was too short to talk.
I made up my mind that I was going to look at the address memo written by Hiria-chan when I got home and grin at it. Then I said bye to her and left first.
As I walked down the corridor, I realized that it was too late.
It’s too late for me to do anything about this.
I’ve fallen completely in love with her.
I haven’t been able to go to the second library at all.
