Chapter 1906 - Lunch?
After Rin and Asagi got angry at Kojou since this guy ruined their chance to see Haru's face, Haru said, "Well, Tsukishima-san, Aiba-san, are these two your friends?"
Asagi let out a long sigh and said, "This stupid guy is Akatsuki Kojou, and the other one is Yaze Motoki. We have been friends since middle school."
"Ha? What do you mean by stupid?!" Kojou was annoyed.
Asagi looked at Kojou, and somehow she was too lazy to say anything at that moment.
"Hello, Kasugano-san, my name is Motoki Yaze," Yaze introduced himself with a smile.
"Hello, Motoki-san, Akatsuki-san," Haru said while looking at both Kojou and Yaze.
"Nice to meet you…" Kojou wasn't sure why, but he had mixed feelings when he saw Haru. He wasn't sure of the reason, though. Still, it was weird after all. It was their first time meeting each other.
"Tsukishima-san, Aiba-san, is it alright for both of them to join us? I've just transferred here, so I thought that it might be good to have a male acquaintance," Haru said.
"Sure, but Kojou, don't do something stupid!" Asagi said without hesitation.
"Ha? What do you mean by that?!" Kojou was furious.
While they were fighting each other, Yaze let out a sigh and said, "Well, Kojou, let's grab something first, or else, we might not have time to eat."
Kojou nodded and went out to buy lunch.
Asagi snorted, but she didn't say much.
Haru looked at Asagi and asked, "Your relationship with Akatsuki-san is pretty close."
Asagi was dumbfounded, but Rin nodded and said, "Yes, she has a crush on him."
"What?!" Asagi was even more dumbfounded when she heard Rin's words.
"I see, Akatsuki-san is very lucky to have a cute girl like Aiba-san to like him," Haru said with a sigh, clearly showing jealousy, then looked at Tsukishima and asked, "How about you, Tsukishima-san, do you have someone that you like?"
"Well… I might have…" Tsukishima said with a light blush, staring at Haru.
Haru smiled and said, "I see… I wonder who that lucky guy is?"
Tsukishima chuckled and looked at him happily.
Then both of them talked to each other to get to know each other better, as for Asagi…
"……"
Asagi had never known that her best friend would suddenly betray her, but…
'Why should I feel betrayed?'
Asagi turned her gaze toward Kojou, who ordered lunch in the cafeteria and couldn't help but feel complex. She then stared at Rin, her best friend, and she wasn't blind enough to see that her friend had an interest in Haru, and as her best friend, shouldn't she support her?
'But…'
While Haru and Rin talked to each other, suddenly someone called his name out.
"Haru!"
The three of them turned their heads, and Haru was surprised to see Nagisa. "Nagisa?"
"Ah, it's really you!" Nagisa quickly strode over Haru and looked at him excitedly, then she asked, "What are you doing here?" She was happy, but she was also confused at that moment.
"I have decided to transfer to this school. I'm still 16, do you remember?" Haru said with a smile.
Nagisa was a bit confused, but she ignored the details since she was just happy to see him at the same school as her. "That's great! We can see each other more often now!"
"That's true." Haru nodded.
"………"
When Haru and Nagisa talked to each other, Asagi and Rin also looked at Nagisa, wondering why Kojou's little sister could be so close with Haru?
"Right, Nagisa, can you keep my identity a secret? I'm sure that it'll be very troublesome if my identity is being known, and if someone asks you what our relationship is, just say that I'm related to Ichijou Haruka. We have met each other in the past," Haru said in a whisper.
"Of course!" Nagisa nodded and felt happy since it felt like they shared a secret between the two.
Asagi and Rin wanted to ask about the relationship between Haru and Nagisa, but suddenly…
"Huh? Nagisa, what are you doing here?" Kojou asked as he came with Yaze.
"Ah, Kojou-kun, I just met Haru," Nagisa said with a smile.
Kojou, who seemed to forget what had happened during the Golden Week, was startled and then looked at Haru and Nagisa with a dumbfounded expression before he looked at Haru in wary. "You know, Nagisa?"
"You're Akatsuki Kojou, right?" Haru asked.
Kojou nodded and said, "That's my name."
"Well, I'm related to Ichijou Haruka, so I know both your mother and little sister by chance, right?" Haru said while looking at Nagisa.
Nagisa also nodded with a cute blush on her cheeks.
"………" Kojou wasn't sure why, but he felt a huge threat from Haru, but he didn't think too much and thought that it was his imagination. He then nodded and said, "I see." He thought it was normal for Nagisa and Haru to know each other by chance since his mother worked with Haru's brother.
"Nagisa, aren't your friends waiting for you there?" Haru suddenly said.
"Ah, that's right!" Nagisa thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment, I'll talk with them before I join you to have lunch! Don't leave me so suddenly!" She moved very fast and ran in the direction of her friends.
"Your relationship seems to be very close," Asagi suddenly said.
"Me? With Nagisa?" Haru asked.
"Um." Asagi nodded and said, "You've called her by her first name, after all."
"Do you want me to call you by your first name? You can also just call me Haru, rather than Kasugano," Haru said.
"Is that alright?" Rin asked in surprise.
"Why not, Rin?" Haru said with a smile.
Rin was a bit shy, but she nodded with a smile. "Then, I'll call you Haru from now on."
Asagi felt complex at that moment, but she wasn't sure what to say.
"By the way, Aiba-san, is it alright for me to call you Asagi too?" Haru asked.
Asagi was surprised, but she nodded. "I don't mind. I'll call you, Haru too, is that alright?"
"Why not?"
The three of them talked to each other as Yaze observed how Haru was able to become so chummy with two girls simultaneously, then he looked at Kojou, who was eating his food without even realizing anything, which somehow made him sigh. "Hey Kojou, is this alright?"
"Ha? What do you mean?" Kojou asked with a confused expression.
"……" Yaze let out a long sigh and shook his head. "Well, if you're alright, then I won't say much." He also didn't think that Kojou could match Haru, especially when Kojou had lost his ability as a fourth primogenitor.
"Hmm?" Kojou looked at Yaze with a weird expression before he shook his head and didn't think too much, but then his gaze was quite wary when he saw his little sister got close with Haru again, wondering whether his little sister had a feeling toward Haru.
'Well, she's still young, so she shouldn't have that kind of feeling toward the opposite gender, right?'
Kojou nodded and didn't think too much, continued to eat his lunch since it tasted so good.
