Chapter 26 - Jealous..?

Maki's POV

I woke up this morning to the buzz of my alarm clock, practically slamming my phone in frustration/tiredness

I slowly got up with sigh, normally I wouldn't want to go to school, but today I especially don't want to go...

I have a bad feeling, yet for good reason

Once I got up from my bed I showered, brushed my hair and put it into my usual twin tails, brushed my teeth, and dressed up in my usual uniform

I got out of my room and towards the dining hall for breakfast, we've started to meet there for breakfast now instead of eating in our dorms, I had forgot to mention this earlier, but oh well

I prepared myself before walking in, once I stepped inside Saihara immediately noticed me, I also think I saw Momota take a glance

Saihara waved me over to our table, I got the school breakfast and sat down

"Hello." I greeted the group, but things were off...

Akamatsu and Momota were chatting it up together, Saihara sat beside Akamatsu awkwardly

Momota didn't even notice me..

Let alone say hi..

"Hey, what's got them all buddy buddy?" I asked Saihara quietly

"Ah-um, I believe it's because they hung out a-after school yesterday.." he trailed off in thought, yet he seemed gloomier today, contrasting to his yesterday attitude

"Hm." I said quietly as I just silently ate my eggs

Saihara was obviously in thought, so it wasn't awkward per say, but even with all these people around me I felt.....alone....isolated.....

Normally I'd dread Momota's botherings but now that I've gotten used to it, it's weird to be without it..

The rest of the breakfast stayed that way, he didn't even acknowledge me beside tiny quick glances

They just continued to talk, all the way to class....once we got there they still conversed, but me and Saihara were just kinda in between them, since Akamatsu sits directly in front of me and Saihara sits beside her on her left as Momota sits on my left

They were talking about The Mars Rover or something...

Okay I knew, I just don't want to admit the fact I've been listening to their conversations this entire time

They're talking about space, well mainly Momota but you know

She seems sorta interested, he seems happy she's a little interested enough to listen for a little

But when we had about 5 minutes before class she transitioned to talking to Saihara instead, probably not wanting to hear any more space stuff

So Momota turned to me

"Hey Maki-Roll! Sorry I didn't say Good Morning or anything I just love telling my stories Y'know?" He grinned

"I know, I always listen." I sighed

So maybe I was a little mad at him

But also....sad? It's hard to identify my feelings after being numb for so long

I wish he was talking to me all morning...

Class started, the day went by usually, I wish I could say that, Momota had barely said a word to me the entire day, he and Akamatsu were practically chatting all day, not to mention the atmosphere was different, no one bothered me and everyone seemed quieter besides Momota and Akamatsu of course
