Like what Hikage-nii did, Kouki-sensei, our class adviser, left Shou in my care. I was in a daze, looking for ways on how I'll explain everything to Umeru. What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?

Wait. Why do I even have to explain everything to him. It's not like I'm doing anything wrong, but...

His confused face earlier flashed in my mind. I slightly peeked at him.

*thunk*

"Sorano-kun, are you listening?" Kouki-sensei lightly hit my head with a book.

"S-Sorry," I apologized completely beet red.

"Eh? Sorano got scolded? No way..." I heard a voice say.

"Sorano?" Another also spoke.

*Shou looked at the way Sora glanced*

"... Heh~"

"Go answer the next question on the board."

"Y-Yes."

What's this? Why do I feel so down?

*ding dong ding dong*

It was lunch break. Okay. I'm going to explain everything to him. Eh? He's not here? That's weird...

"Sorano? Wanna eat together?" Shou approached with a smile and asked.

"S-Sorry, Shou. I have something to do," I replied scanning the whole room for Umeru.

"Really? That's too bad. Maybe next time?"

"Y-Yeah. Sorry. I'll also tour you around the school later, okay?" I hurriedly went out of the room and searched for Umeru.

(in Shou's POV)

"Nee~ Who's the guy sitting there?" I asked the guy in the neighboring desk. 

"Who? Umeru-kun?" He replied.

"Umeru?" I repeated.

Huh? His name sounds familiar...

"Yeah. You just transferred, so you still don't know who he is."

"Uhmm... What about him?"

"Umeru is a known lady-killer. He got to date all the beauties in this school in the blink of an eye."

"Whoa."

"Their relationship doesn't last for a month though... Or maybe a week?"

"Hahaha. That's kind of..."

"Right? But that's how it was before."

"Before? What about now?"

"Hmmm... I think it's been a month already since I last saw Umeru with some girl."

"Is that so?"

"What's weird is that, he and Sorano-kun seemed to have gotten close for some unknown reasons. Oh! Maybe he's changed targets? Hahaha! Just kidding."

"Ahahaha... Thank you. Uhhm..."

"Tsutsui."

"Thank you, Tsutsui."

Umeru? I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before. I think I'm forgetting something very important. Ahh. I can't remember! I'll just think about it later.
