It's a romantic comedy for everyone, so why am I the only one single?

"But the problem is, the absence of prejudice doesn't mean there's no worry!"

"I'm asking you, when he agreed to date you, did he mention, directly or indirectly, that he hoped you would keep your distance from other guys?"

Kitagawa Kaimu thought for a moment, then said somewhat uncertainly, "I don't think so, right? But I did promise my senior that I wouldn't take on any more revealing filming jobs in the future."

Before she could finish speaking, a phrase she had almost forgotten suddenly resurfaced in her mind, leaving her completely stunned.

"Huh? Haimeng, what's wrong? Did you remember something again?" Oozora, who was on the other end of the phone, noticed Kitagawa Haimeng's unusual behavior and asked.

Kitagawa Kaimu snapped out of her daze, her voice already trembling with tears.

"My senior colleague specifically told me, 'If you're going to make cosplay costumes in the future, either make them yourself or hire a professional female designer; you absolutely cannot hire other guys.'"

"I didn't think much about it at the time, I just thought it was cute that my senior was so petty."

"I was so tired at the time that I turned over and fell asleep, and then I forgot about it."

After hearing this, Da Kong felt a strong urge to swear.

"Are you an idiot? How could you forget something like this?!"

"And even if Iura-senpai didn't say anything, didn't you notice that you and Gojo Shinna are too close?"

"You two have only just met, yet you're already acting so close. Unless Iura-senpai doesn't care about you at all and is just playing around, how could he not be angry or indifferent!?"

Kitagawa Kaimu panicked immediately.

"I... I'm not close to that Shinji Gojo. I just asked him for advice on how to make clothes."

"real!"

"I'm just asking for advice!"

"I still plan to make my own clothes!"

After hearing this, Daikoku laughed in anger: "If this doesn't count as close, then what does count as close? Let me ask you, when you first met Iura-senpai, did you get that close to him to study cosplay, or research niche anime and games together?"

“Who would start by talking about those things with someone right away!” Kitagawa Kaimu wanted to retort.

But she knew that even if she succeeded in refuting Oozora, what good would it do?

And just as Osora said, when she first met Iura Hide, she didn't act as close to him as she did to Gojo Shinna from the start.

It wasn't until several days later, when Iura Hide rescued her beloved figure, that she began to take the initiative to get closer to Iura Hide.

Yes, it was her initiative again.

Having realized this, Kitagawa Kaimu finally understood completely.

"From Iura-senpai's perspective, the way you're actively getting close to Gojo Shinna is just like how you got close to him before, even more proactive than when you were with him. What do you think Iura-senpai should think?" Oozora's words were another heavy blow to her, making her face completely drain of color.

"I'll go find my senior to explain—"

"An explanation? What's the use of an explanation in this kind of situation?" Oozora sneered without any politeness. "Don't forget, Iura-senpai already reminded you before, and you agreed. But you've already forgotten in just a few days. In this situation, let alone an explanation, even an oath won't help. Do you understand a crisis of trust? You've already lost Iura-senpai's trust, and that's the worst thing, something that no words can undo."

"Then what should I do?"

Kitagawa Kaimu was completely at a loss at this point.

Oozora sighed, "If Iura-senpai hadn't warned you, it would be fine. But given the current situation, there will always be a thorn in his side, and the more he likes and cares about you, the deeper that thorn will pierce. So in this situation, you and he either need to break up directly—"

"No! This is impossible!"

Kitagawa Kai rejected the idea outright without even thinking about it.

She and Hidekazu Iura were each other's first love, and they shared so many firsts with each other.

Besides, she and Iura Hide both still deeply love each other, so how could they possibly break up?

Only then did Da Kong realize what she was thinking, and he secretly shook his head.

As someone who's been through it all, she knows very well that many times, liking someone doesn't guarantee a relationship, and breaking up doesn't necessarily mean you don't like them anymore.

Whether personalities are compatible is often more important than whether you like someone or not when it comes to relationships.

Especially for these hot girls.

It's really hard for a decent person to accept her 'spicy' personality.

"Then there's only one way?"

"What method?" Kitagawa Kaimu asked hurriedly.

"Most wounds can be healed by time. If you don't want to break up, you can only show Iura-senpai your changes through your actions and slowly remove the thorn in his heart."

"I will definitely change! But isn't there a faster way?" Kitagawa Kaimu couldn't help but ask.

“Yes,” Osora couldn’t help but roll his eyes and sneered, “Either Iura-senpai likes you so much that he suddenly changes his personality and completely accepts that you are too close to other boys, or Iura-senpai no longer likes you so much and just ignores you. Which one do you choose?”

""

Kitagawa Kaimu was speechless for a moment.

She doesn't want to choose either of them!

The second one goes without saying; how could she possibly want the person she likes to not like her back?

As for the former, just as Iura Hide felt heartbroken when he saw her humbly begging for forgiveness, she would also feel heartbroken if Iura Hide really became like this because of her.

She may be a hot girl, but she's not the kind of selfish girl who only thinks about herself.

She also hoped that Iura Hide would be happy when he was with her, rather than feeling wronged.

Moreover, the decision between these two options rests with Iura Hide; even if she wanted to choose, she couldn't!

"By the way, don't send any more messages to apologize in this situation. The more you apologize, the deeper the wound will be planted in his heart, and the more upset he will become. What you need to do now is to downplay this matter by being more enthusiastic than usual, at least let Iura-senpai see your feelings for him and that Gojo Shinna—"

"I really have absolutely no connection with those five new dishes!"

"Okay, okay, anyway, you need to make him feel that way."

Oozora gave Kitagawa Kaimu many suggestions, which Kitagawa Kaimu wrote down one by one.

However, after hanging up the phone, Kitagawa Kaimu couldn't help but open LINE and click on Iura Hide's chat interface.

Look at their previous chat history, and then look at what Iura Hide sent earlier.

"Don't apologize."

"I'm not really angry, I'm just too tired."

"I just finished showering and am getting ready for bed. You should get some rest too."

The stark contrast in tone between the two sentences, so easily discernible, filled her with bitterness, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"stupid stupid stupid!"

"Why can't you notice something so obvious!"

"Why did you forget what you promised your senior so quickly!"

"You say you like your senior, but have you ever really cared about your senior's feelings?"

Kitagawa Kaimu gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles as pale as her face.

However, she immediately wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and cheered herself up.

Now she knows why Iura Hide is angry and what to do, so she is sure she can win back Iura Hide's trust!

"Yes! Kitagawa Kaimu! You can definitely do it!"

In the empty room, Kitagawa Kaimu loudly cheered herself on.

Meanwhile, after registering for the training course, Iura Hide went straight to bed.

There was nothing he could do; the continuous sleepless nights, coupled with what had happened today, had left him utterly exhausted.

As for writing novels, he could simply experience Tokyo at four in the morning!

"Okay, from now on you must be in bed before midnight, and you can get up a little earlier in the morning, like 5 a.m.

"This way, I can have two hours in the morning, two hours after school in the afternoon, and three hours after the training class in the evening."

"That adds up to about seven hours."

Lost in thought, Iura Hide quickly drifted off to sleep.

He still didn't see Tokyo at 4 a.m., he only saw it at 6 a.m.

However, after sleeping from nine o'clock to six in the morning, a total of nine hours, he finally fully recovered his energy.

Especially for Kiko, who knew him best, she could tell at a glance that her energetic husky brother had finally returned.

Good morning! Jiko! Ai!

Good morning, Onii-chan!

Chapter 117 Yoshikawa Yuki's Thoughts

"I'll make breakfast today."

"Huh? Shall we have fried rice today?"

"If you want to eat it, of course you can."

"I want to eat it!"

"I also want!"

Although Hoshino Ai had never tasted Iura Hide's Chinese fried rice before, seeing Motoko's expectant expression, she immediately chimed in.

Of course, while Iura Hide was busy, she and Motoko didn't just watch; they also assisted him.

Compared to Kitagawa Kaimu, the two are clearly much stronger.

At least the two of them won't make things worse.

"I'm going out~"

After breakfast, Iura Hide took two portions of fried rice specially packed for Mashiro and Chihiro Sengoku, as well as a notebook he planned to use to finish his manuscript at school, and went out.

"Where to go through the darkness? Only the moonlight is my guide. Even if the pain and sorrow cannot be wiped away, I will never let the flame in my heart be extinguished."

Perhaps it was because my spirits were high and my mood had improved, but even the familiar street scenes around me seemed to have changed.
