Episode 48 – I Won’t Make Mistakes Anymore ~Naru’s Case~

It was a surprisingly bold move on my part. I had no proof that the teacher was the culprit, since I hadn’t heard their conversation.

In other words, I may have been mistaken. Well, at that time, I should probably get down on my knees and apologize or something…….anyway, I am glad that Iori is safe.

My heart is pounding right now.

“Iori…..I’m sorry, if I had talked to you properly then, this wouldn’t have happened.”

“No, it’s fine.”

Iori suddenly hugged me. Even though I was already nervous, the fact that Iori hugged me doubled my excitement.

But I had to fulfill my role as a boyfriend.

I gently hugged Iori.

“There’s really nothing going on between me and Yui san.”

“I know. I know that neither Naru nor Yui would do such a thing.”

Ugh…..my heart aches……because I was about to give in to the temptation.

“I was teaching Yui san how to play guitar.”

“You taught Yui to play guitar?”

“Yeah, Yui san usually says, [Rock is not something you can ask someone to teach you.].”

“Yes, yes, she does.”

“That’s why I promised not to tell anyone.”

“So that was the reason…”

“I’m so sorry.”

“No, I’m sorry too. If I listened to what Yui had said, this situation could be solved immediately.”

“That’s not true, Iori. I was trying to make a good face for everyone, it was something that I brought myself. From now on, I will put Iori first. I won’t make mistakes anymore.”

I wonder if that was a bit stinky…

“[I won’t make any mistakes anymore.]…..I guess I could use that in a love song lyrics.”

That was close. I almost got goosebumps from my own words. I’m grateful to Iori for distracting me from the fact that I was being cringe.

“I guess you’re right.”

Iori pretends to be calm, but she’s trembling.

I think she was scared.

“Iori, I’ll walk you home today.”

“Eh, it’s fine, my place is the opposite direction from yours, Naru.”

“Even if it’s the opposite direction, it’s only one stop, and I want to do it.”

“Then, I’ll take your word for it.”

“Yeah.”

I headed to the station while holding hands with Iori.

There were a lot of things going on, but I’m glad that we were able to make up.
