Touma-kun Is an Ex-Yankee

Translated by AmaLynne

I switch my attention.

I take off my glasses, pull my hair back, put it all back, and tie it with a rubber band I have with me.

Phew…it’s been a while since I’ve had this style.

Now, if it goes peacefully, all the better.

If not…I don’t have to tell you.

I follow the voice.

「Hey! Come on! Let’s do something good!」

「N-No…!」

「Whoo! No, don’t! I’m telling you. I can’t get enough of this.」

Huh…I didn’t know people like that still existed nowadays.

What in the world is going on.

「Oi, boys. If you will, will you do it somewhere else?」

「Aaa!? What the hell are you?」

「You’re just trying to look cool and help. What an idiot!」

「U-Umm! Please run away!」

…I can’t see much because I don’t have my glasses, but she’s a pretty good kid anyway…

I can’t believe I’d be able to say that under the circumstances.

「I’m not here to help you. If I could, I would go through with it. But we have our circumstances…and it doesn’t work that way.」

「Huh? What the hell is this guy talking about!?」

「Just let’s do it! I’m losing my patience!」

The insufferable son of a bitch comes at me!

I don’t avoid it and take it in the face.

But with a twist of the neck and body, and with minimal force.

「What the hell? You don’t even dodge! You’re weak, but you’re too big for your good!」

He punches me in the stomach with his fist.

「S-Stop it! I-I-I’ll follow you…!?」

「Huh! You’re a good girl! But I can’t. There is no stopping him once he gets going.」

Okay, now I’ve got two hits.

Now it’s self-defense for sure.

And if there’s a problem, I’ve got a witness.

「Hey, hey, hey! What’s the matter? Where’s your initial bravado?」

「Hey, you should be more spirited. I’m pissed off, so I’m going to go easy on you.」

「Ha? What are you talking about…gbeh!」

I drove my fist into his gut!

「Ow! Gah! Gosh, gosh…」

「Damn, it’s filthy. Clean it up yourself.」

「What the hell!? What’s wrong!? Satoshi!」

「Hey, you. I’ll let you off the hook if you take him with you.」

「…This guy strong? But I can’t do that, since you asked me to!」

That guy is coming at me, too.

Huh…you should have retreated.

More importantly…did he ask you to do it? …Well, I can’t take care of him that well.

「Oraaaa!」

He’s going to throw a fist in my face!

I’m not going to take it this time.

I catch it with my palm. 

「What?」

I silently put all my strength into my palms!

「Aaghhh! It hurtssssss――!!」

「Hey, who told you to imitate Fat◯the North Star?」

「No, no, no! It hurts! It hurtssssssssss!」

「I told you not to imitate. So, what do you think? Are you ready to move on?」

「Don’t be stupid! We’re getting our asses kicked, agagagagaaaa!」

「Hey, I’m tired of this. You can only mimic twice. You’ve got a lot of guts, but I think you’d better back off while I take it easy on you.」

「Ah! I-I understand! I’m retreating! I’m retreating!」

I let go of my hand.

「Damn! Stupid power! Remember that! Here! Satoshi! Let’s go!」

「It hurts~Mom. I can’t move anymore.」

「Shit! That’s why you’re such a dope! This guy is so weak. No choice, just get on my shoulder.」

With that, the two yankee dorks left.

Now, what am I going to do now?

I’d like to leave without incident…

「Umm! Thank you very much! Thank you for saving me from a dangerous situation…」

「No, don’t worry about it. I’m just helping you for my own sake. Not for you. More importantly, girls shouldn’t be in a place like this. I don’t condone what they did, but you can’t complain about being picked on, can you?」

「Still, you saved my life! Thank you! Yes…I’ll be careful.」

Somehow, this girl… too good, don’t you think?

I took a serious look at the girl for the first time there.

……No good……no good, no good no good no good no good no good…!!!!

I had my glasses off so I couldn’t see much, but that guy was a girl in my class.

Moreover, she is not only the best girl in the school, but also one of the most famous girls in the prefecture.

Her name is Aya Shimizu.

She is good-looking, top in her class, cheerful and kind, and is everyone’s madonna.

However, it is said that she gets a lot of criticism for that….

And here’s the bad news.

I want to live a quiet life.

If she found out about the fight, my reverse high school debut will be ruined…

But fortunately, I’m low-profile in class.

Plus, I’m in fight mode, so my hair is different and my glasses are off.

My tone of voice is different, too, so she shouldn’t even notice me…!

「Um, is something wrong?」

I noticed that Aya Shimizu was looking into my face.

No, no, no. I just couldn’t stop thinking about it.

By the way, if I look closely, I can see that she has a beautiful face…

Well, it’s nothing to do with me.

「No, it’s nothing. It can’t be helped, follow me.」

「What? Uh, yes.」

I can’t just leave her here.

A pack of hyenas would be swarming around this place.

I walked along, making sure she followed me.

Then I came to a busy street.

「Okay, you’re safe here. Now, go home.」

「Eh? Oh, um! Could you please tell me your name!? And if possible, your phone number…! I’d like to thank you!」

「I told you before, didn’t I? I only helped you because I wanted to help you. So, no need to thank me. And a cute girl like you shouldn’t say such a thing, right? A normal guy would have misunderstood.」

I wouldn’t be mistaken.

That’s what being a true little bastard is all about.

「Fue!? Cu, cute…! Uhh, no, no! Um, that…」

「No need to know my name. Well, take care.」

I walk away without hearing a reply.

What a name to call yourself…!

I’m not trying to be cool!

I can’t say my name!

I can’t tell you my name because it would reveal too many things!

I just want to live a quiet life!

Later, when I returned home, I found my sister in a tantrum.

「Brother! It’s already so late! My brother is without food! Hmph!!!」

Indeed, when I looked at the time, it was past the usual appointed time.

In my family, we have dinner at 7:00 p.m.

Today was the day that the time was right…

That day, I thought to myself as I slurped my cup of ramen.

Huh? Wasn’t today a good day?

……I don’t believe in fortune telling anymore……!
