Touma-kun Is Furious

Translated by AmaLynne

TN: Sorry for the no updates last week. I’ve been really busy IRL and have no motivation to continue translating. The update will be slowed down from 5ch/week to whatever many chapters I managed to do that week.

Thank you for your attention, happy reading~

It’s the day after the opening ceremony.

I meet up with Aya again today and head to school.

「Are things better than yesterday…? 」

「Yes, there are fewer stares and screams. 」

「I hope this will help them recognize me a little more. 」

「…sorry, troublesome…… 」

「Hey, I’m not mad, okay? When did I say that? I’m not going to let this be a hassle for the sake of my favorite girlfriend. 」

「T-Touma-kun…you said my favorite… 」

「Oh? I don’t think I’ve said that very often. 」

Is it important?

Ummm…I’m embarrassed, but if it makes Aya happy, I’ll do my best.

「Umm, yes…I’m happy… 」

「What! What is it!? 」

「It’s so sweet!! I mean!! 」

「Shit!! Love it!! 」

……still doesn’t seem to be subsiding after all.

◆◇◆◇◆

Then, after school that day, Aya said she had something to do, so I waited in the classroom.

It was a very short class and she said she wanted to hang out with me.

It was what you might call the first date in school uniform.

There were still people left in the classroom, and Tanaka-kun was among them.

So I was discussing light novels with Tanaka-kun.

Apparently, Tanaka-kun is a good person.

He would not spoil the story or push me around.

I wouldn’t play with him, but I decided to talk to them for as long as I was at school.

「What else do you read, Yoshino-kun? 」

「Hmm…I like some of the old stuff, like Fullmetal and Slayer, you know? 」

「Oh! Really? I like them too! It’s great! They are the gold standard of light novels! 」

Then the classroom door opens and a man I don’t know starts talking to me.

He’s a very handsome guy, with a Janie-esque appearance.

「You! You’re that guy called Yoshino! Is it true that you’re dating Shimizu-san! 」

「Yes, that’s right. By the way, who are you? 」

「You don’t know me!? I’m Takumi Sawada! You know who I am, don’t you? 」

「I don’t. 」

「Hey! Why are you with this guy? With such an unassuming guy! And his friend is a creepy nerd! Shimizu-san is too good for you! 」

「Hey, you! What did you just say? 」

I’m shaking with anger…I haven’t been this angry…!

「W-What the hell, I said…it’s a waste! 」

「That’s not the point. I know Aya is too good for me, pretty, beautiful, good-natured, family-oriented…and above all, a wonderful girl who can relate to people’s feelings. 」

「Tsk! You’re making fun of me! 」

「Yeah, that’s right. But that’s not the point now. Why is Tanaka-kun a no-go? 」

「Huh? Of course! Anyone who watches anime and novels is a non-riajuu! 」

「What is this riajuu thing? Who decided that? You? 」

「That’s what everyone says! 」

「Who is this everyone? Bring them to me and I’ll break them down for you. What are your hobbies, by the way? 」

「What, suddenly…well, I guess guitar and outdoor stuff. 」

「So, you’re a real riajuu, huh? 」

「Huh? Of course, isn’t it? It’s popular and you can play sports. Good hobby, isn’t it? 」

「That’s what you like, isn’t it? 」

「That’s right. 」

「So why are light novels and anime a non-riajuu, even though they are the same things people like? It’s the same thing, right? Just different hobbies. I don’t deny that you’re a riajuu, but Tanaka-kun is definitely a riajuu. Because he is doing what he likes and having a good time. Why are you discriminating? Do you want to mount up? 」

「W-What the heck is that? Huh! I don’t get it! That’s enough! 」

After saying that, the man left.

Damn! I had so much more to say!

「Yoshino-kun…! Thank you! I’m impressed! 」

「No, I was just saying the obvious… 」

Then, some applauded.

「Well said! 」

「Yeah, I know! We’re all in the same boat! 」

「We’re doing what we love! 」

I don’t know what is…but okay.

「Touma-kun! 」

「Aya. Are you done? 」

「Un! Let’s go! 」

I don’t know why, but she has a big smile on her face.

「I’m going home. See you later, Tanaka-kun. 」

「See ya! 」

◆◇◆◇◆

When I went out into the hallway, I saw two of Aya’s friends.

「Wow, you’re good. When I found out you’re Aya’s boyfriend, it was a bit of a shock. 」

「I guess so. But I think you two might be a good match. He’s very handsome when you look at him. 」

「Thank you very much. Let me just introduce myself. I’m Aya’s boyfriend. 」

「Geez, you two! Touma-kun! Come on! 」

「All right, all right. Don’t pull me away. 」

Aya pulls me by the hand and we leave the school.

We walk to the station.

Aya is…cute, with some kind of smirk on her face all the time.

「You look kind of happy, don’t you? 」

「Eh? I-Is it that obvious? 」

「Oh, you’re grinning. Well, you’re cute, so I don’t mind. 」

「…you know! …that… 」

「Aya? 」

Now she’s fidgeting…Oh no, I want to hug her.

「Ugh, I was so happy! Touma-kun! Thank you! 」

She says and clings to my arm!

“Wait! Aya! That’s not good! That’s not good! 」

Because it’s hitting me!

Soft thing!

「But Kana and the others said this would make you happy… 」

What are you teaching her!!

No, I’m happy!

Thank you! Wait, no!

「What’s the matter, then? 」

「You know…I was listening to you earlier. With Kana and the others. I just couldn’t leave because I’m not good with that guy… 」

「Oh, I see. Well, he seemed persistent. If that’s the case, I’ll kill him. 」

Pause

Unmute

「No! But I’m glad you feel that way…I was happy that Touma-kun told me at that time that he liked me not only for my looks but also for what I had inside…. …Ah! Of course, I knew that! I was just happy that you put it into words properly… 」

「I see…well, I like you both inside and out. I always feel happy when I’m with Aya. 」

「Ehehehe…we’re the same…you know! Kana and the others told me! Isn’t it for physical purposes? And that…I think they heard the thing and approved of it. 」

「Well, what can I do? They are good friends. It means they were worried about you, right? 」

「I like it when you say so, Touma-kun! 」

「Hey! I told you to stop pushing me! Don’t push me! It’s dangerous! ] 

「Ehehe, I like you, Touma-kun! 」

In the end, we went to the station with our arms crossed.

Ha, my patience, I’m sorry, but you’re going to have to step on it a little longer…
