I, Tomoya Aki, am not a bootlicker

For some reason, Kato Megumi thought so.

There is no sadness or negativity in it, it is just a simple comparison to see the gap between them.

And Kato Megumi has also gotten used to it.

I got used to being an ordinary female high school student, used to being ignored frequently, and used to having no sense of presence and being able to only agree with the few female friends I had when they were talking to me.

But it was a strange thing to be noticed by someone who was the exact opposite of her.

But in front of a campus celebrity like Tomoya Aki, I am treated as a normal person and not ignored. The other party also remembers what happened during the spring break. How can I describe this feeling?

Anyway, it can't be called irony, because if it is irony, as one of the parties involved, she is also one of the objects of irony. Wouldn't she become a tragic character who is bullied in the TV series?

However, in fact, Kato Megumi is not the protagonist of school bullying, but her characteristic is that she has a weak presence.

"Aki-san, can I ask you a question?"

Kato Megumi's gentle voice sounded in Aki Tomoya's ears.

The latter raised his head and looked at Kato Megumi in confusion, and replied, "Please speak."

"Are you dating the most beautiful girl in the school? Two at the same time."

Kato Megumi's words left Aki Tomoya confused.

Now, Tomoya Aki is still somewhat confident about his appearance, but the fact that they are in a relationship does not exist at all.

And whether in the past or now, he doesn't look like a man with a lover.

So what is the basis for his classmate Kato Megumi's doubts?

“I’m single.”

Akitomo responded to this fact very calmly.

Although he feels ashamed, he is single both before and now. Maybe he had opportunities in the past and now, but he doesn't have that intention now.

"But the third-year Kasumigaoka-senpai and the second-year Sawamura-san are both paying attention to you."

So the question is, the girl at the next table who was pretending to review was Kasumigaoka Utaha, the girl who was hesitating at the door of the library and only dared to secretly look at Eriri over here, and the other two of the three famous people of Toyogasaki Academy, Kato Megumi was sure that their eyes were all here.

What even felt new to Kato Megumi was that it was the first time she was looked at in such a scrutinizing manner. Without thinking too much about the reason, it was naturally caused by the boy in front of her.

"Three famous people gathered together. I'd like to treat this as a coincidence, but do I need to leave first?"

Perhaps Kato Megumi felt that she was a bit of a hindrance, and at this time she was still asking Aki Tomoya whether she needed to step back.

Because she always felt that there were many problems with the two people's vision.

The views of those two girls were not so pure. If the subsequent developments were to be viewed as a romantic comedy, Kato Megumi felt that there was something wrong.

Similarly, as an ordinary girl, it does not prevent Kato Megumi from being gossipy at this moment.

What is going on with this delicate triangular relationship, which seems to be a love-hate relationship?

"Actually, you can just ignore it."

Aki Tomoya looked normal.

Seeing his reaction, Kato Megumi realized that the other party had already noticed this matter a long time ago and was just tacitly approving the current situation.

At this moment, Kato Megumi felt that this boy was very powerful in some ways.

Chapter 15 They Gathered Here (4k sincere chapter!)

The three famous people of Toyosaki Academy are Kasumigaoka Utaha, Sawamura Spencer Eriri, and Aki Tomoya.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, the top student in the school, a rare literary talent, the most beautiful girl in the eyes of countless boys and girls.

Eriri, an elite member of the art club who won a prize at an exhibition in her first year of school, is a famous young lady who is kind to everyone and is as popular in school as the one mentioned above.

Finally, there is Tomoya Aki. Well, after his actions last year, everyone in the school knew him as an obvious otaku, and his reputation was mixed. However, a subversive change took place after the start of the second grade.

Now the three most famous people in the school are all gathered together, and the two beautiful girls who are extremely popular in the school are obviously targeting Tomoya Aki.

Although she was very curious about the relationship between them, even the parties involved said it was best to ignore them, so Kato Megumi could only focus her eyes on the red book in her hand as if nothing had happened.

The first person to discover Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha was not Kato Megumi, but it was impossible for Aki Tomoya not to notice such an obvious gaze.

One is a childhood sweetheart who is still upset about something that happened in the past, and the other is a senior schoolmate who has not yet let it go.

……

Has this been discovered?

Eriri subconsciously shrank back behind the door.

It is believed that the reason for being discovered was not Kato Megumi, but the gaze of another woman.

The girl named Kasumigaoka Utaha, who sat next to her childhood sweetheart, gave Eriri a subtle teasing look that made her realize that her whereabouts had been exposed.

"Why is that woman here at this time?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha, that Kasumigaoka Utaha, a tricky woman!

Because of that person's existence, Eriri became even more hesitant.

This was not the first time that she had quietly followed Aki Tomoya when he was not at cram school.

If Eriri puts aside her willful behavior as a young lady for a moment, she can actually think things through.

After the incident in elementary school, Eriri was forced to separate from Tomoya Aki on the front line, and they didn't speak to each other for a long time.

In recent years, we have only communicated through text messages, and exchanged games, comics, and novels in a special way.

This slightly twisted relationship was finally torn apart completely. After the last incident, such a relationship could no longer be maintained.

The reason is simple. Even if they are still secret otaku friends on the same front and maintain such a fragile childhood sweetheart relationship, it is not a long-term solution after all.

While she was still waiting for a new opportunity, Aki Tomoya had already taken a crucial step.

Her childhood sweetheart, Tomoya Aki, who for some unknown reason suddenly chose the University of Tokyo, no longer offers her the status of a so-called childhood sweetheart.

Eriri, who already felt like she was walking on thin ice in this relationship, couldn't feel optimistic at all at this moment.

If you naively imagine that the other party will make concessions or reconcile easily, the childhood sweetheart approach will only lead to complete failure!

After learning from the painful experience, if we don’t take the initiative, the distance between us will only get farther and farther. Can this BAD ENDING, where we are like strangers, still have a chance to turn around?

"Xiaxia, why are you here?!"

Eriri has been looking for an opportunity to make a breakthrough with Tomoya Aki, but the existence of Kasumigaoka Utaha makes her mind even more confused.

Although even if Kasumigaoka Utaha wasn't around, Eriri might not be able to completely let go and take the initiative to look for Aki Tomoya, but does she need a reason to pass the buck?

Humans are like this. Even though the problem is clearly their own, they always seek psychological comfort by throwing the problem onto others.

Let’s not talk about this for now, the customary childhood sweetheart system will never lose!

……

"Sawamura Spencer Eriri..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's burgundy eyes moved slightly, and she just glanced at the mixed-race girl who stood at the top of doujin artists in the other world as Kashiwagi Eri.

I don't know if it was because they shared the same pain, but looking at her hesitant and conflicted look, Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't feel any sarcasm towards Eriri, who had some conflicts with her. Instead, she sighed softly.

Hesitation will lead to failure, decisiveness will lead to failure!

Now, Kasumigaoka Utaha only wants to say these words to Eriri.

Regardless of whether Eriri is hesitant now or is able to make a decisive move, Kasumigaoka Utaha doesn't think she can get the ideal response from Aki Tomoya.

The current Aki Ryunya is not the junior classmate Jun Ryunya from the past, nor is he the Ryun Ryun-kun who rejected her feelings during spring break.

In this library, there is also "Love Metronome" which was placed on the bookshelf by Tomoya Aki himself last year.

Even though time has passed, Tomoya Aki still demonstrates his strong execution ability and his dedication to achieving his goals.

However, this is exactly the Aki Tomoya who still retains these characteristics, and at this moment he seems so strange and familiar.

Even Kasumigaoka Utaha herself doesn't dare to say that she has a clear understanding of the current Aki Tomoya. So, has Eriri, who is hesitant and uneasy at this moment, really thought about it carefully?

So the blonde girl who looks like a loser at this moment is so pitiful.

"Third class in science at the University of Tokyo, should I say that you are worthy of it?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Aki Tomoya with slightly complicated eyes.

Whether in the past or now, Aki Tomoya always surprises people unexpectedly.

That serious, quiet Aki Tomoya...

"Uh-huh..."

Da da da da da da——

"Please calm down, Kasumigaoka-senpai. This is a library."

Aki Tomoya turned around expressionlessly and reminded Kasumigaoka Utaha who was stamping her feet in excitement.

call!

"excuse me."

Be elegant and don't panic!

Kasumigaoka Utaha calmed down and placed her snow-white right hand on her knee.

Think rationally and calmly. Now we should observe carefully and understand the current Aki Tomoya.

It won't be too late to make a decision after taking a new look at this boy who rejected her feelings and was unromantic.

She is Kasumigaoka Utaha, a new light novel writer. She is risking her own innocence to see through this boy named Aki Tomoya!

……

After reminding Kasumigaoka Utaha, Tomoya Aki thought for a moment and saw Eriri, who was still hiding at the door and thought she hadn't been discovered by him yet.

"What an awkward young lady!"

He sighed in his heart.

In fact, Tomoya Aki could also imagine what situation Eriri was in now and what kind of mood she was in.

But, if she really wants to reconcile or something, can't she just do it?

Even though things were so awkward, her desire to reconcile was written on her face. But when he thought of her personality, An Yiren knew that this guy definitely hadn't really figured out what the problem was!

And actually things aren't as complicated as Eriri thinks, and Aki Tomoya doesn't care that much about past events.

Now let’s not talk about whether anyone owes anyone anything. Let’s just pretend that no one owes anyone anything and just get along with each other as normal people.

Amami Tomoya didn't want to pursue the past. Although what happened in his childhood did leave some shadows on him, it would be too hypocritical to talk about such things now.

The current situation with Eriri can perhaps be called a cold war, a one-sided one at that.

Because Tomoya Aki didn't care much about it, but Eriri cared a lot.

So let Eriri do whatever she wants. Anyway, Tomoya Aki really wants to find Eriri.

He had said everything that needed to be said, and he really didn't want to maintain that twisted relationship anymore.

They are childhood sweethearts, and Aki Tomoya thinks that some things should be done in moderation.

Besides, as for mutual understanding, An Yilun was afraid that after the so-called mutual understanding, everyone would become even more entangled.

Then there is Kasumigaoka Utaha, who looks quite calm. She is the one who really does not need too much concern.

Since she intends to see clearly that she is making the decision, let her just be an observer with peace of mind.

But I'm afraid that Tomoya Amaki may have thought a little less. He seemed to have forgotten that the girl next door, Kasumigaoka Utaha, is a writer of romantic light novels and a woman who has both sensibility and rationality.

"Is it true that Amai-san isn't dating them?"

Kato Megumi's calm voice sounded in his ears again.

Kato Megumi, who had already seen all the reactions of Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha, would never believe that there was no emotional entanglement between them.

That look of hesitation, that look of wavering, was truly too subtle.
