Am I being simulated by their love affair.

Chapter 232 The spring breeze blows down petals, not in accordance with the girl's expectations.
After leaving 506, Jun Matsue stood in the corridor for two seconds, feeling the heat of the oden transfer from the plastic bag to his fingertips.

He took out his key, pushed open the security door, and was greeted by a motionless girl in her pajamas.

"What are you doing standing in the entryway?" Jun Matsueda's shock level rose a little.

"Let's see if you go into the next room and never come out again." Yosuke Kurusu looked like a police officer who had discovered a criminal.

"Do you think that's possible?" Jun Matsue replied irritably, holding up the oden in his hand before changing his shoes.

"Here's your midnight snack."

"Thank goodness I didn't have to spend the night out," Yosei Kurusu grumbled, taking the bag the boy handed her. "You didn't forget to add chili to the pine branches, did you?"

"It's been added."

The girl let him go for the time being and ran into the kitchen to find a bowl for oden. Jun Matsue changed his shoes, quickly went into the bedroom, and took out a change of clothes.

When Qi Yangshi came out of the kitchen, the sound of water could already be heard in the bathroom. The girl carried the bowl to the semi-transparent glass, picked up a piece of konjac and put it in her mouth.

"It's not good~" The konjac, cooked until soft and bouncy, overflowed with broth from the deep cuts. The girl chewed while talking to Jun Matsueda, who was taking a bath.

"Pine branch——"

The shower water stopped. "What's wrong?" Jun Matsue asked with his eyes closed as he washed his hair.

“Girls have so many ways to pursue their crushes these days.” Kurusu Yosei swallowed the konjac, then picked up a lucky bag containing beef sukiyaki.

"Especially be careful of those who like to play hard to get!"

"Okay." He turned on the tap and continued showering. Amid the sound of running water, the girl was still chattering outside the door.

"You also need to be careful of money tactics. Hmm, this cartilage skewer is delicious, I'll save one for you!" As Yosuke Kurusu spoke, he gradually veered off-topic.

After taking a shower and eating the oden the girl had left for him, Jun Matsueda was about to enter the bedroom when the girl called him back.

"Songzhi, you haven't forgotten what we're doing on Saturday, have you?"

“I remember going to the album launch with you.” He closed the wooden door to the bedroom.

He drew the curtains, got into bed, pulled the covers over himself, and stared at the ceiling in the darkness.

It seemed that every now and then, he would stare at the ceiling and think, like saving a game.

If life is really a game, what does that phone call and Mochizuki Haruka's return mean to me?

After staring at the ceiling for a long time, Jun Matsue still couldn't find an answer.

"Forget it, don't think about things you can't figure out," he sighed and closed his eyes.

On the second day, at lunchtime, Jun Matsueda was eating tempura rice in the cafeteria when Maki Yamami and Tomoka Tomatsu stood in front of him.

"Matsueda-kun, may I sit here?"

He nodded while he was still eating, and the girls sat down with their plates.

"The cafeteria is selling spring-limited tempura today. Is this the one Matsueda ate?" Tomatsu asked curiously.

Jun Matsue nodded again, swallowed the food in his mouth, and drank a mouthful of miso soup.

"Sakura shrimp tempura and mountain vegetable tempura".

Sakura shrimp is a type of shrimp; it's not like sakura blossoms and shrimp are fried together. The wild vegetable tastes a bit like toon, but there are so many kinds of wild vegetables that Matsueda Jun couldn't be sure. "Watching Matsueda-kun eat makes me very hungry," Yami Maki smiled. On their plates were a plate of fried dumplings and a small bowl of rice.

"So, what did you and Tomatsu want to talk to me about?"

If it weren't for something important, Yamami-senpai would never have brought Tomatsu Yuka along to appear in front of him.

"The brass band would like to ask if there are any extra spaces in the school newspaper," Tomatsu Yuka said first.

It seems to be something serious. Matsueda Jun put down his chopsticks. "Are you planning to do some club recruitment?"

The school newspaper is an outdated thing, but because Haneoka High School has a news club, it is still being produced. Matsueda Jun was able to get into the news club by writing articles for the school newspaper.

“Yes!” Yami Maki nodded. “Nowadays, when people mention the brass band, they probably think of it as a troublesome club with long practice times.”

"We hope to get more freshmen interested in wind instruments, and it would be even better if they could join the club."

“I’ll have to ask Tsushima-senpai about that. Although he’s no longer the head of the club, he’s still in charge of the school newspaper.” Matsueda Jun picked up his chopsticks again. “But we already had plans to do a recruitment campaign for the club, so we’ll contact you then.”

"Ah, no need to contact me." Yami Maki shook her head frantically, grabbing the arm of the girl beside her. "Just contact Tomoka!"

"So, you've already left the brass band club, huh?" Jun Matsue suddenly remembered this.

"That's right, the era of Yuuka is about to begin~"

Tomatsu Yuka wiped her mouth with a tissue. "If I can live up to everyone's expectations, then I've won."

After finishing his tempura rice bowl, Jun Matsueda drank his soup while watching the two girls in front of him who were still eating.

"Sometimes I really wonder, don't you get hungry eating so little for lunch?"

He looked at the two small bowls of rice and a plate of fried dumplings across from him. The dumplings were small, eight in total, and the two of them were sharing them.

"This much meat and rice is enough for lunch." Tomatsu Yuka put the last bite of rice into her mouth and chewed it carefully.

"Ah, I understand, I understand." Jun Matsue nodded, recalling the scene of the group eating together during the first shrine visit.

"Although I can only eat two skewers of yakitori, I can eat shaved ice that's bigger than my head. That's the amazing thing about a girl's stomach."

The girls who were still eating covered their mouths, struggling to suppress their laughter; even Yamami Maki's shoulders started to tremble.

After finishing their meal, the three walked back to the classroom together, with Tomatsu Yuka walking between the two, watching the cherry blossoms falling along the way.

"It's cherry blossom season again."

The girl was in a good mood. Her best friend and her sweetheart were both by her side. The three of them walked together in the warm spring sunshine, feeling the warm breeze blowing the petals. What could be more pleasant than this?

If only the second-year students could continue to live such a smooth and wonderful life, Tomatsu Yuka thought, turning her head to look at the profile of the boy next to her.

"Does Tomatsu-san remember where you put your extra textbooks?" Matsueda Jun's voice sounded like sunshine to the girl, warming her heart.

"Hmm, I think she took it back to the office for Ms. Kominato. Is there anything you need, Matsu-san?" Tomatsu asked with a smile.

"Because Mochizuki is coming back next week, we need to prepare her textbooks."

As Yamami Maki walked to the left of her junior, she suddenly felt the girl's arm tighten around hers.

Tomatsu Yuka sighed inwardly.

Things couldn't possibly go smoothly like this.
