Chapter 9 – Himeka’s Budding Romance

After I watched Moriyama-kun put my letter away in his bag, I returned to the classroom and hurried to get ready to go home.

I don’t know when Moriyama-kun will contact me, and if possible, I would like to stay at home so that I can calmly respond to his messages.

When I got out of school, I took my phone out of my bag and walked while clutching it.

Walking at a brisk pace, I came to the front of the park yesterday.

It reminded me of Moriyama-kun’s appearance yesterday.

He staggered to his feet and turned to me and said, “It’s all right, it’s all right. I’m fine now,” and gave me a kind smile.

He was a classmate whose name I barely knew, and who I never paid any particular attention to.

But the way he stood up and smiled kindly, he was stronger and better looking than any man I’ve ever seen.

Suddenly, my face turned hot.

Muu~~~

When I think about Moriyama-kun until just now, I was depressed with guilt and anxiety that he might not like me, but when I remember the way he looked at that moment, my face turned hot…

Am I beginning to think of Moriyama-kun as a man???

When I start thinking about it, I now remember the contents of my letter and my face got even hotter…

I wrote, “I want you to be my friend,” and in a letter at that.

When I wrote the letter, I didn’t think too much about it, hoping that from now on, we would be friendly enough to be able to contact each other casually on our phones. But to ask to be friends in a letter, it’s like confessing “I’d like to be friends with you,” doesn’t it…???

Uhuhu~~~

I’m getting a stomach ache.

What to do?

What if the person I kicked and knocked unconscious thought I was the kind of woman who would confess her feelings the next day?

A violent woman, and a quick and flirtatious one.

So embarrassing…

Even though this is not the real me.

I’m a member of the student council, a karate practitioner, and I work hard academically and am at the top of my class.

I am extra careful about my appearance so as not to be seen as a barbaric woman, and I have tried not to forget the femininity in my speech and demeanor.

Thanks to that, all my friends around me at school adore me, and I’ve been confessed to by the opposite s*x quite often. I turned them all down because I wasn’t interested in romance.

I’ve been such a mess since I knocked Moriyama-kun unconscious yesterday.

No, I can’t.

If I get flustered over something like this, I will make even more blunders.

I’m a martial artist myself.

In times like this, I need to unify my spirit and get back into the swing of things.

When I entered the park, I put my bags and other things on the bench, took off my loafers and socks, sat on the ground, straightened my back, closed my eyes and began to concentrate.
