I, Aki Tomoya, will not be a simp.

"Ah, do you really have to look at me with such suspicion?"

Aki Tomoya muttered under his breath.

Sayaka Kudo grinned and said, "I'm just a little annoyed..."

accurate?

I don't know exactly why I feel upset.

Aki Tomoya couldn't guess what exactly was making her unhappy.

Could it be because I knew that person earlier?

That seems to be the only way to think about it.

"I don't know how to express your dissatisfaction. Could you please tell me why?"

"I'm unhappy, that's all, no reason needed!"

"So that's just being unreasonable?"

Even though that's what they say, Sayaka Kudo wasn't being unreasonable.

She was just inexplicably a little annoyed.

Sayaka Kudo retorted defiantly, "Being unreasonable is a woman's prerogative... I really want to say that, but have I ever been unreasonable, Tomoya-kun!"

"I am very sorry, please have mercy on me, I misspoke."

At this point, it's best to honestly admit your mistake.

Kudo Sayaka probably also felt wronged.

Aki Tomoya obediently shut his mouth.

Since this is an interrogation, we might as well just answer the questions directly. Too much talk leads to mistakes!

At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that women can be very generous at times, and very petty at others.

Every individual has a degree of possessiveness.

Of course, if this possessiveness dates back to a very long time ago, then it makes no sense.

Knowing that she had no reason to lose her temper with Aki Tomoya, and shouldn't lose her temper, Kudo Sayaka quickly calmed down.

After some thought, she realized that she might be envious.

I envy others who knew Aki Tomoya earlier than I did.

At the same time, I also felt a little envious of how outstanding that senior was.

"I should apologize; I got emotional for no reason..."

She lay on the table, puffing out her cheeks and muttering to herself.

Aki Tomoya usually interprets her behavior at times as a sign of insecurity.

It's like he's a little anxious and insecure.

"You are truly the root of all evil!"

I was originally planning to offer a few words of comfort.

When Kudo Sayaka turned around and said those words to him, Aki Tomoya almost spat out his drink.

"How am I the root of all evil?"

Aki Tomoya had black lines hanging from his head.

That's nonsense!

How could he be the root of all evil?

This is a complete injustice to innocent people!

"Being affected like this by a boy, my friends would laugh me to death if they found out!"

"Tsk... You're kidding, right? You're kidding, aren't you?"

Regardless of whether such an idea is problematic, one should at least consider his feelings.

Aki Tomoya will take this as a joke by Kudo Sayaka for now.

Kudo Sayaka stuck out her tongue, her cunning expression leaving Aki Tomoya somewhat helpless.

"To be honest, I've spent more time with you than with anyone else."

At this moment, Aki Tomoya said the same thing.

Strictly speaking, if we're talking about who he spends the most time with, then Kudo Sayaka should be the one he spends the most time with.

We started tutoring each other during the summer vacation after our second year of high school.

Later, she changed the class schedule to six days a week, and they studied together every day.

This is more time spent with classmates than with other classmates.

Even if you say that, I won't be happy!

Sayaka Kudo pouted.

If you look closely, you can see that she was quite pleased with herself after hearing what Aki Tomoya said.

Her dishonesty demeanor and lack of disguise reveal her true intentions at a glance.

It was precisely because of Aki Tomoya's words that Kudo Sayaka couldn't help but feel resentful.

Similarly, what I thought about before was indeed a bit of overthinking.

They've spent quite a bit of time together.

"You said we should be honest with each other, and I've answered all your questions. Now it's your turn!"

Aki Tomoya has decided to launch a counterattack.

Previously, it was always Sayaka Kudo asking questions and he answering; now it's his turn.

Sayaka Kudo didn't seem to have much of an opinion on this, saying that Tomoya Aki could ask whatever he wanted.

"...You've told me about your past before, so there's nothing to ask?"

But when it was actually his turn to ask, Aki Tomoya felt there was nothing to ask.

Because everyone who needs to know already knows.

Before coming to Aomine Academy, Kudo Sayaka knew about what happened at school and the bullying she suffered in elementary school.

If you were to ask what kind of men she was close to before him, she would say that she attended an all-girls school starting from junior high.

The only men I could come into contact with were my teachers and family members.

"...So it seems I know you better than you know me!"

Aki Tomoya remarked.

Sayaka Kudo casually replied, "So, I've been honest all along, then it's time for you, Tomoya, to tell me everything I don't know!"

It seemed that the other side had suddenly gained the upper hand.

Aki Tomoya narrowed his eyes, and at this moment he simply asked, "Isn't that a bit unfair?"

"Fairness is only relative. You yourself said you know me too well. Ask whatever you want."

Sayaka Kudo didn't care.

Anyway, the situation is Zheng's astonishment.

It wasn't that Aki Tomo didn't know what to ask, but rather that she couldn't answer anything.

If anyone's to blame, it's Aki Tomoya himself, who admitted he knew too much about her.

"Then let me ask you, besides me, what would you say if you had any other close male friends in the past?"

"Besides you, isn't your best friend Mr. Tsubota the one you're closest to?"

"See, I asked for nothing."

Sayaka Kudo has few relationships with men, and she didn't have a good relationship with her father and younger brother in the past.

Aside from Tomoya Aki, the only male person they were truly close to was Takashi Tsubota, their tutor at Aomine Academy.

As for the other men...

Including her former homeroom teacher, Sayaka Kudo has never really encountered anyone she felt comfortable with.

The question was essentially a waste of time.

"Well, you're my first love, aren't you? Or would you feel better if I said you weren't my first love?"

"It's better to tell the truth!"

Aki Tomoya quickly replied as soon as Kudo Sayaka finished speaking.

There's nothing to complain about; after all, I was the other person's first love.
