time being.
The fact that it turned into a big deal made it seem more like a comedy, which was a relief.

By the way, the winner of the Beauty Pageant Competition was Shinozuka-san, my classmate.

_____________________________________

After the contest was over, we were now moving to the unpopular staircase landing.
This is where Kaede, Soji-san, and I were talking earlier.

Soji-san put his hand on my shoulder and let out a satisfied sigh.

“I’ve been thinking about it and I hadn’t expected that you would take action right then and there on the spot.
And I was indeed surprised by your courage.”


“Haha, thank you.”

“I still don’t completely trust you, but let’s just see how things go from now on.
If I find out that you are cheating behind Yumi’s back then things won’t end well for you…”

“Wha—?! ”

What is with him? His whole demeanor changed so suddenly.
Is he really the same person or has a multiple personality disorder?

And as usual, I can’t understand Soji-san’s character.

Anyway, it also seems that he has acknowledged me a little bit because of my actions earlier which saved Sakuramiya-sensei.

For now, I think that I can continue to play the role of Sakuramiya-sensei fiancé in the future.
I’m not saying that I want to continue…

However as I have already accepted her offer I will help her to the end of it.
And since we have reached so far, I hope that she will finally find someone worthy to be on her side forever.

“I’m going to leave now.
I’ve come here as incognito, you know.
If Yumi finds me, she might get angry.”

“Is that so? I’ll see you later again sometime.”

“Well then, see you again Minato-kun.”

Soji-san smiled softly and turned on his heel.


Now, where should I go? Kaede is probably at home by now, so let’s go to the library or any other place

And because of my sudden appearance on the stage during the beauty contest, I guess I became popular somehow.
At the very least, I should stay away from public places during the festival.

With this in mind, I was about to head to the third floor of the main school building when my phone vibrated.

I looked at the screen and saw that I was receiving a call from Sakuramiya-sensei.

Thinking it might be related to the act which happened a few minutes ago, I answered the call.

“… Yes, this is Segawa.”

“I wonder where you are right now? Are you still with Kaede-chan?”

“No, Kaede is already home.
Do you want to meet with me somewhere?”

“Yes, come to the student guidance office.
And the door is already unlocked.”

“Okay.”

“I’ll be waiting for you.”

After hanging up the phone, I changed my destination from the library to the student guidance office and started walking.
