The Story of You and Me - Book 1

Lesson3: Unrequited (prt2)

"Look, isn't he the transfer student whom the prince confessed to" "The prince did what?!" "He said that he loves him or something" "Yeah I heard it from one of my friends who attended the price birthday party" "They said that president Shohei asked everyone to go home after that scene"

Everyone is talking as Hideya walks by. On his way he saw Saki, they both standstill when she saw Keisuke not far behind Hideya.

"It's the prince"

"You sure he's a prince? Or should we call him princess"

"I can't believe that he did that"

"That explains why he rejected all those love confessions, he's not into girls!"

"And that's why she never had a girlfriend before"

Keisuke doesn't seem to care for all the rumors that he hears around him, for him, they are all white noises. With that said he also didn't notice Hideya is just a few meters in front of him as they enter the school premises.

"Kei-kun" – said Saki in a low tone.

Keisuke looks up and saw both Hideya and Saki in front of him but instead of pausing like the two did, he looks down and quickly runs towards the school building passing both Hideya and Saki.

"Wai-" – but before Saki was able to stop him his already inside the building. Hideya on the other hand didn't say anything and continues to enter the building.

The class ended and it's time for tutoring.

"What will I say to him, I don't know if I can still show my face to him after that" – Keisuke said as he stands in front of the library where they usually held their tutoring class.

As he enters the room he didn't saw Hideya instead he was greeted by Shohei.

"I need to talk to you"

"B-but I have tutoring today"

"No, you don't"

The two of them went to the student council office. Yet again unbeknown to the two student council officers that Hideya saw them and follows them.

Keisuke stands still and can't even think of something to break the silence.

"Remember what I've told you before"

Keisuke nodded.

"To be honest I didn't expect you to come to school today after what you did that night"

Keisuke remained silent.

"Also you intend to go to meet him again expecting to tutor him"

"It's my job, I volunteered to do it and I intend to fulfill that, after all no one would want to do it anyway"

Hideya on the other hand leans at the other side of the door of the student council office listening to them.

"Well you don't have to, I've already talked to him that you will no longer tutor him"

Keisuke wanted to protest but hold himself back.

"Don't forget that your parents entrusted me and Saki, your childhood friends to take care of you while they are away and I intend to fulfill that as well"

Keisuke looks up and made eye contact with the president who is one year older than him.

"What do you want me to do?" – Keisuke said with a defeated tone.

"I will not tell your parents what happen but that is if you will stay away from Ueda for good"

Keisuke takes away his eyes and looks outside the window of the student council room "It's not that he wants to see me again after what happened" – he uttered.
