The next day. 2Nd period break time.
During break time, the homeroom teacher suddenly appeared in the class, seated her children in their seats, and began to speak.
“Guys! The school trip destination has been decided! Are you going somewhere new this time? hehehehe…”
She enjoys the gaze of children who then and then wonder what she is up to.
“Eh? It’s not Kyoto?”
“When I was in middle school, I was always in Kyoto…?”
“Isn’t it Tokyo?”
In the midst of the children’s guesses, the homeroom teacher, who fully enjoyed the gaze, put a piece of paper on the blackboard and began to speak.
“hehehehe, the destination is Korea! Let’s go to Korea, guys!”
“Eh? Korea? Where is that?”
“Well…? I’m not sure…”
“Are you an idiot? It’s the country next door.”
“Eh?”
However, fearing that someone might not be the humans in the anime, these guys ride on the ice without knowing where they are.
“This is the end of the reaction, guys..?”
It seemed that the teacher was also perplexed by the unexpected appearances.
But in the midst of that, there was someone who was particularly happy.
“hehehehe…”
It was Sato Ichika.
The look of her happy cheeks.
She was so happy that she was enjoying this happiness without even noticing that her upper body was shaking slightly.
…As expected, I think I did well to receive the offer.
“…”
However.
On the other hand, there were also people who were visibly unhappy.
That was Osana Najimi.
As soon as she heard that she was Korean, she fell down. Her back was shaking like an aspen tree.
I don’t know why… I guess it’s okay…
After her teacher left, I approached her and opened her mouth to her.
“…Hey, are you okay…?”
“…”
Then she heard me, even though she was shaking, she raised her head.
She looked at me with eyes that had become moist before she knew it.

And then she started talking carefully.
“…If we go to Korea, we will get caught up in anti-Japanese protests and get killed…”
“……”
And I was at a loss for words.
Are you crazy?
But she seems to believe in her wholeheartedly.
“…”
I decided to take out her cell phone and tell her the truth about her while thinking that she is a crazy b*tch on the one hand for her sake.
“Now, look.”
I manipulated her cell phone for a while and then handed it over to her and she accepted him.
Then she started reading something on her phone.
What I searched and passed to her were her reviews, which included information about how many Japanese people travel to Korea each year, and that the Korea they experienced had nothing to worry about.
Then she finally seemed a little relieved. But her trembling still didn’t stop.
Why are you still like that? Curious about the reason, I asked her again.
“Why again?”
Then she spoke to me in a worried voice.
“Koreans unconditionally hate Japanese people… If you go to a remote place, you will definitely be beaten…”
And then she looked at me with a worried look.
“…”
Seeing her like that, I thought for a moment whether I should just tell her not to go and end it. Then, once again, I exercised her patience and started talking to her.
“… It can’t be, but… Yeah, let’s say you’re right. Then, shouldn’t we just go to remote places? Besides, aren’t we going as a group anyway? But then, if we protect each other, we don’t have to worry, right?”
After my words were over, she seemed relieved once again.
But she still has anxiety left, she looks at me with a hesitant gaze.
As I was thinking about what to do this time, she spoke to me in a trembling voice.
“…Then will you join me and protect me..?”
“…”
And then, for some reason, I got a fever from those words, and then, in an instant, I spit out my true feelings.
“If there’s anything I can do with you, I’ll return home right away no matter what.”
“Eh..?”
Then she made a wounded expression. She fell down again and began to sob.
“…”
Ah.
“……”
I need to apologize quickly.
…But how can I soothe…
“……”
Really what?
“Shujinkoo-kun! Really to Korea..! Eh..?”
As I was thinking about how to soothe her, Ichika Sato, who had been smiling happily in her world earlier, approached me at some point and asked me in a small voice.
“Hey, Osana-chan, why are you doing that..?”
Even though she has had a fight with Osana Najimi, it’s not once or twice that she worries about Osana Najimi.
There is no such thing as an angel.
“…”
But I couldn’t tell her the truth about her.
How can I say the reason she is really crying, ‘she cried when I told her that I would return to Korea if I was going to go with you’.
Because of that, I just fooled around saying that I accidentally said something harsh.
***
After a while.
After Ichika Sato, who sensed that the atmosphere was not good, went back, I started patting Osana Najimi on the back without saying anything.
She still lies on her face and cries.
…I wondered if it was something to be so sad about, but… Well, wouldn’t it be that the words that hurt each person are different?
So at times like this, it would be appropriate to just comfort them.
How long has it been since I patted her on the back like that?
In the end, the bell rang and the teacher came in, and the third period began.
So I had no choice but to go back to my seat and focus on the class.

3Rd period break time.
I went up to Osana Najimi, who had been lying on her stomach throughout class, and patted her on the back.
Then, during her class, she calmed down a bit, and she regained her stability shortly after.
“…Are you alright…?”
When I asked if I was okay, she put her head back.
“… I’m sorry…”
Even when I apologized, she didn’t respond.
And like that, time passed again around the time class started.
Oh Sana Najimi raised her head and she looked at me who was next to him.
Then she starts talking to me in a locked voice.
“I’ll forgive you… Then instead, do the same group during the school trip.”
“…”
And I, who was thinking about her request for a while.
“As expected, that seems a bit far-fetched.”
He expressed his intention to refuse again.
“…”
Then she fell down again and started crying.
“……”
Now I don’t even know.
***
Lunch time.
When I came back from eating with my senior, I saw Osana Najimi eating with a group of Iinazuke guys in the distance.
Obviously, he was lying on his stomach until he left. Still, judging from the fact that he was eating rice, he seemed to have regained some energy.
As I was looking at him like that, I instantly met eyes with Iinazuke.
Then she starts talking with her mouth in my direction.
If you guess the shape of that mouth and read it…
Thre…Re…Ki…?
“…”
She calls me trash.
Then she turned her gaze back and started to eat.
“……”
I felt bad when I heard that… But since I had done something before, I couldn’t even deny it.
Ha…
…By the way.
How did he know about that?
Did Osana Najimi just say that?
“…”
Maybe something big will happen at some point.
It was me who thought that I should be more careful with my words and actions from now on.
***
Time passed again.
“Bye-bye everyone!”
After the closing ceremony, the teacher left the classroom.
Then, the children start making noise and packing up or going outside.
Among those children, I was also packing my things.
As I was packing my things like that, Osana Najimi deliberately glared at me.
And then.
“Huh!”
…She went out with Toyoda.
“……”
As I said before, it was fortunate that he seemed to have regained his energy, judging from the fact that he was giving a damn.
“Let’s go, Shujinko-kun.”
“Uh, yes.”
I was relieved to see her like that, and I went outside with Inazuke.
In the meantime, I suddenly remembered what happened earlier and asked her.
“Hey, it’s lunchtime.”
“Yeah, what’s wrong? Mr. Garbage.”
“…”
I didn’t see anything wrong.
… I hesitated for a moment at her reaction, but soon she came to her senses and asked what I wanted to ask her.
“So… By any chance, did Osana Najimi tell you everything I said?”
Then she put on an expression of doubt as if she didn’t know.
“Well? How about it?”
“…”
I frowned at her innocent expression for a moment and began to question her.
“What is it really?”
“Well?”
“You know.”
“Um~ I’m not sure?”
“…”
How long has it been like that? In the end, I gave up on questioning and let out her sigh, and she said to me with a small smile.
“Actually, I just made an analogy, Shujinkoo-kun.”
“…”
As I had predicted the highest possibility of her that Sana Najimi had been talking about, I was taken aback by her unexpected answer.
From noble mtl dot com
“…You guessed that?”
Then she nodded her head.
“Yeah, it’s like that before, but Shujinko-kun. You’re not merciless toward Najimi-chan, are you? And the way you comforted Najimi-chan throughout the break time. That’s what I inferred.”
“……”
She felt bad about being played on the palm of her hand… On the other hand, I was able to feel relieved after all my doubts were answered by those words.
How worried I was when I knew that the story had spread right away…
After…
… But in case you don’t know…
As expected, I want to pay attention to my words and actions from now on, as I originally planned.
