Chapter 3 | |
Senri Nito |
Shishimaru, you’re annoying, shut up. You were the most scared, so you have to treat us. |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Haa!? Don’t fuck with me! |
Touji Harimiya |
Then I shall be the one to give a feast to the friends I spent this night with. As a celebration of the good time we had! |
Senri Nito |
No, Harii, you can’t! Then it’s not a real contest! |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
That’s right! I don’t need your stupid charity! I’ll treat you guys to whatever! |
Yuma Mochizuki |

Location Change: Timeskip | |
Touji Harimiya |
Well then. Good night, Mochizuki-kun. Have a pleasant night’s– oh, right, it’s already morning. This was my first time staying up all night with friends. I miss the liveliness enough that I might not be able to sleep, haha. See you. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Good night, Harimiya. … Ah, by the way, there have been a bunch of kakitane crumbs on your butt for a while now. |
Touji Harimiya |
Why didn’t you tell me that before…!? |
Watching Harimiya run off sweeping crumbs off of himself, I suddenly remembered Shishimaru’s words. | |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(… Could it be that it’s not okay to say, “I like anything”?) |
I guess I like peanuts; I thought they were yummy. But if someone asked me what my “favorite food” was, I don’t think I would answer “peanuts”. | |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Everyone… could easily say what their “tastes” were.) (Harimiya said it was a secret, but even he seemed to have a type of girl…) |
In the village on the island I was born on, there were barely any other people my age. In my family life too, there weren’t many opportunities where I could voice my own will and have it be acknowledged. That’s why until this year, I lived thinking what I was feeling now was normal. | |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Could it be that I have… some kind of defect in my heart…?) |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Oh, Yuma? |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Ah, Yanagi-senpai… |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
What are you doing out here? |
Yuma Mochizuki |
I was in Nito and Shishimaru’s room until a little while ago. |
Senpai very naturally fell in stride beside me, and we began to walk back to our own room together. | |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
You stayed out all night, too? What a bad boy. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… Please don’t lump me in with you, Senpai. I was watching a foreign drama with Nito and the others. |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Oh? Sounds filthy and kind of fun. What were you watching? |
Yuma Mochizuki |
It’s called “The Jogging Dead”. It’s about zombies. |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Hmm? Yuma, you like zombie stuff, huh. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(… The ones who “like” zombies are Nito and Shishimaru.) (If you asked me what I wanted to watch… I’d probably say nothing in particular.) (But… there’s really nothing I don’t want to watch either.) |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Yuma? What’s wrong? You suddenly got quiet. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… Yanagi-senpai, how do you decide what you “like” and what you “dislike”? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Is that… a question about romance? I knew it, you were out all night, weren’t you? (implying he was out with a girl like yanagi was lol) |
Yuma Mochizuki |
It’s not about romance or anything. But I– |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Is this consultation going to take a while? |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Eh… |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
I love girls of all kinds, see. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… Isn’t that the same as thinking “I don’t really hate them” about everyone? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Why do you say so? To me, all of my honeys are special. |
We finally arrived in front of our room. Yanagi-senpai promptly went in ahead of me. Left standing alone in the hallway, I began to ponder the meaning of the word “special”. | |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(… I don’t think that’s right. Peanuts nor Jessie, neither are really “special”.) |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Is there nothing that’s “special” to me…?) |
