Failed Yandere (YKMRO)

Chapter 36

After presenting all the evidence to Mrs. Kunahito, Ayoshi was once again allowed to participate in Sports Day. However, they could not report Rai since they didn't have any concrete evidence and Ayoshi didn't want to use the video.

Megamo decided to keep a close eye on her. He sat at his desk in the Student Council Room and flipped through photos of Rai that Ryugoku took. "Everything has been silent so far. Sports Day is tomorrow, hopefully, everything goes well."

It's finally the morning of Sports Day. Ayoshi was having breakfast with his parents. "Father... will you be able to make it to Sports Day today? I was... hoping you could watch me race."

Jokichi took a sip of his drink, writing on his papers. "I'm busy."

Ayoshi looked at his food, his hair hiding his face. "You said you would talk to your bo-"

"I did. He denied my request. I have a big project due soon and have no time to waste."

Ryoba placed her chopstick on the table and smiled at Ayoshi. "I will go see you today, Ayoshi. Don't worry and enjoy your breakfast."

"Thank you, mother. I have to go now." Ayoshi gathered his things and walked out the door.

After he left, Ryoba frowned and stared at Jokichi. "I was able to get the day off, but you couldn't?"

Jokichi sighed, "It's an important project."

Ryoba stood up, the screeching from the chair hurting Jokichi's ears. "So is our son!"

When Ayoshi arrived at the school, it was packed with families coming to support their children. Loud laughter and talking fill his ears. Everyone crowded in the back of the school at the track field. Many had come very early to choose their spots to sit and stand. It was going to be a long day, so people brought food and drinks. Some parents even made banners to cheer for their kids.

Ayoshi met up with his teammates in his classroom to prepare for their events. They were all wearing their yellow uniforms and the room filled with excitement.

Aso threw his arm over Ayoshi's shoulder. "I'm so happy they're letting you participate! When you told me what happened, I almost cried! So, are you ready?"

"Mm, ready," Ayoshi said, petting his head.

"Hehe," Aso giggled with a big smile, his imaginary puppy tail wagging behind him. "My parents came to support me. They always managed to make it ever since I was in elementary school. Are your parents coming?"

Ayoshi looked down at his feet. "My mother is..."

Their captain clapped their hands twice. "Listen up everyone, the day has finally come. I want everyone to do their best! We must bring honor to our parents and our class!" Everyone cheered, filling the room with spirit.

Aso noticed the shift in Ayoshi and he hugged Ayoshi close to him. "Let's go make your mom proud!"

Ayoshi looked into Aso's sparkling eyes. "Mm!"
