Chapter 1000 Awkward Fuyu  Around ten minutes later, the call ended. As for the result… it’s within my expectation. We managed to convince her to allow Yue to spend the rest of the day here. And before the day ends, I’m going to escort her to the condominium later after school.

Halfway through my talk with her, I let Yue step in again wherein they managed to calmly talk to each other. She faithfully explained her reasoning, with appropriate details to her manager. A far cry from their screams earlier. Furthermore, Yue promised that she’d return, no matter what.

Reviewing the result of our talk, the ultimatum that I dropped was kind of weak if one analyzed it properly. Yet, with Miss Manager’s mind already a mess for knowing that Yue was with me as well as her genuine concern towards Yue, she eventually accepted it.

She left a warning for me though… Something along the lines of… “I will make sure that you’re going to give up and let the poor girl go.”

Well, whatever she’s planning to do, I would never give up. After everything that happened, I didn’t want to disappoint Yue again.

“I’ll call you later. Do not walk outside without putting on the wig, alright?” I reminded the pink-haired girl while pinching her flushed cheeks.

“I understand, dear. Take care on your way.” Sending us off with her most beautiful smile while using that endearment, Yue contentedly acted as my housewife.

Well, for all I know, she’s also trying to provoke Akane again. The same as Shizu, she openly declared to Akane her wish to be the first girl I will marry.

Nonetheless, Akane only laughed it off while radiating her unyielding superiority. She’s open to challenges but she’s confident that she’d win that race in the end.

Anyway, having done our preparations, Akane and I were about to leave for school.

Admittedly, this was one of the reasons why that ultimatum was weak. I have school today. Although it’s well within reason to skip a day in case Miss Manager stubbornly persisted in taking her back, I only put that as our last resort

Yue understood it. That’s why she also did her best to convince Nagamine-san.

Moreover, the girl has another reason for wanting to stay in the house.

She’s hoping to meet my parents.

Yep. That’s courageous of her. Even without me suggesting it to her, the girl brought up that idea herself upon hearing that almost everyone already met them.

From what I’ve seen from her actions ever since I accepted and dropped my hesitation to make her mine again, Yue is trying to catch up on everything she missed starting from the day I changed.

As an example of that, she also joined the Ruki Hub; the group chat dedicated to all of them.

She greeted everyone and easily fit in by getting to know them one by one before revealing her identity as the popular singer, Mabushisa Asahi.

The girl was using a different name so… even those already aware of my connection with her took a while to recognize her.

And when they did, I got bombarded with questions again… Some even straight up sent words of amazement at my incredible reach. Aoi even joked that it might not be far for me to bring someone from overseas – she didn’t count Edel as one. The adorable koala is here in our country, after all.

Anyway, I learned all of Yue’s exploits in the first few hours that she joined because she kept showing them to me. She’s extremely amused at the diversity of girls that she’s now calling ‘sisters’.

Perhaps when I return from school, there are more stories she’s going to tell me.

Uh… That sounds exciting, in a way.

Today, I walked Akane up to their school gates. But because we met up with her three close friends along with Eri and Futaba’s boyfriends, our group wasn't that inconvenienced. It was rather smooth because we had three guys in the group.

Actually, that was the first time I saw Eri and Futaba’s boyfriends.

Wait. No. I probably already met them before. Just that, that was the first time that I interacted with them.

From what I observed, they’re pretty decent, at least. Further, they’re both too protective of their girls. Even though I introduced myself as Akane’s boyfriend, they lingered close to Eri and Futaba. They’re threatened that their girls would fancy me because of my appearance.

And since I had no obligation to ease their minds, I simply stopped paying attention to them. I only focused on Akane as well as Fuyu’s occasional guilty glances.

Right. The girl started acting awkwardly around me.

Earlier on the train, Fuyu approached me and apologized for yesterday. However, she said it in a way that I only caught the last syllable before quickly hiding behind Akane.

Perhaps she’s afraid that I was still mad for how she acted yesterday or she’s just that awkward at apologizing.

When I got a glimpse of her anxious expression, it was hard to imagine that she was that popular tennis girl at their school. Her personality deflated enough that she needed Akane’s support when I was around.

Uh… I never wanted to appear fearsome to her. But the girl convinced herself that I am.

In any case, Akane and I could only smile wryly at that. She somehow predicted that Fuyu would be like that and decided to just go along with it to let the matter slowly rest.

Befriending her to contain that suspicion from growing again would be put on hold.

We had to wait and not rush it.

The chance was nearer than I thought though. Thinking about it, Akane’s period was just around the corner. Perhaps sometime around this week or the next.

When she started to become clingier again, I would be relying on Fuyu to take care of her. With our concern over Akane coinciding, I’d be able to talk to her properly, even if it’s under the cover of that.

I mean, that’s her obvious reason for confronting me; she’s afraid that I was fooling Akane. So… it’s also fitting that I borrow that reason to get close to her.

Mhm… I better prepare for that instance.

Anyway, once I separated from them and started making my way back to the train station, I experienced hell…

At the moment, three girls were standing in front of me, mesmerized by me with their clasped hands raised to their chests.

“H-hello… Which school are you from?”

“May I know your name?”

“Uhm… If it’s not trouble, can we exchange contacts?”

Those and similar questions kept on being thrown at me by the girls.

Because the effect of my new appearance was still at full throttle, I once again experienced what happened yesterday.

And this time, I couldn’t find a ‘Hashimoto’ I could latch on to escape this situation.

Furthermore, I noticed someone following behind me… It’s that guy from the Newspaper Club.

He spotted me from the gate. If not for the traffic created by waves of students coming to school, he would’ve reached me already…

What to do?

Well, it’s simple…

“Uh… I’m Onoda, from Fourth High. I apologize but… I can’t give my contacts. Maybe, next time?” After saying all that in a rather aloof way, I side-stepped and slipped away from them.

That’s effective. Unfortunately, a few steps later, I was blocked again.

And with that, I had to repeat acting and saying that for a few times before fully escaping from the excessive attention.

Oh, how I wish I can immediately get used to this…
