Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

But the confession failed, so the scarf could not be given away.

She gave it to Watanabe Tsutomu because she saw that Watanabe Tsutomu was wearing too little during a date, and she was worried that he would be cold, so she gave it to him.

"At first I thought it was a gift for me. It was only after I wore it for a while that I embroidered the word 'Aki' on the edge of the scarf."

"Senior, my last name is Watanabe, not Aki."

In fact, he never wore that scarf for a single day.

Because it's too ugly.

If it was made by his girlfriend, no matter how ugly it was, Kitahara Takashi would wear it.

But he and Kasumigaoka Utaha are not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

And the next day after he brought the scarf back, his landlord gave him a scarf made of better material, more warm, and very stylish to wear.

He didn't know what material the scarf was made of, but it felt better than the one that Kasumigaoka Utaha gave him.

As for the one about Kasumigaoka Utaha, he had no idea where he threw it when he got back.

As for how he knew that the scarf was for Aki, it was because Kamikawa Nari somehow broke into his house and found it not long ago.

She was furious when she saw the scarf, thinking that Kitahara Takashi was hanging out with some little bitch named Aki behind her back, so she caught him and questioned him for a long time.

"I……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha wanted to explain something, but didn't know how to say it.

She was very upset and wondered why she had to embroider her last name.

Now, no matter how she explained, she couldn't explain why the scarf given to Watanabe Takashi was embroidered with Aki Tomoya's surname.

"Senior, you gave me this pair of rimless black-framed glasses for my birthday. Do you remember?"

Kitahara Takashi pointed to himself and said he was wearing glasses.

"Ah."

When it was Watanabe's birthday, she went to the shopping mall a week before and started choosing a gift for him.

I shopped around for several days and finally chose this pair of glasses after careful selection.

"These glasses..."

Kitahara Takashi paused deliberately, then softly uttered those few words: "I probably bought it while I was buying a gift for Aki Tomoya."

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at him in surprise: "Watanabe, why do you think so?"

"An Yi wears the same glasses as me."

Kitahara Takashi's voice was flat, like the despair he felt after he had given up.

"That was bought for him by Kato Megumi. I didn't buy it."

There was a hint of anxiety in Kasumigaoka Utaha's tone as she explained.

"I know, Kato told me, I just want to put the blame on you."

Kitahara Takashi thought to himself, but he did not answer and had no expression. He just pushed the phone in front of Kasumigaoka Utaha and looked at her calmly.

He didn't say anything, but his meaning was clear.

He would definitely not accept this phone.

Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at him blankly. Finally, her long eyelashes like butterfly wings trembled slightly, and a trace of sadness appeared in her eyes: "My Lord, is it true that no matter what I say now, you won't believe me?"

Kitahara Takashi wasn't looking at her. Instead, he turned his gaze towards the tree, his tone neutral and indifferent: "Because you told me, Senior, I'm just a stand-in."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's chest tightened.

"You're just a stand-in."

She often said this to warn Watanabe Takashi not to have any unrealistic fantasies about her, as she would never like him.

I used to say that it was nothing.

But today, when she heard Kitahara Tsutomu say it himself for the first time, she felt a vague sense of unease in her heart.

It seems like something big is about to happen next.

The main thing is that there was something wrong with Kitahara Tsuneta today.

He used to be very well-behaved. Even if he got upset with me, he would just silently swallow it and not say it out loud.

Just like an honest person, he doesn’t get angry on a normal day, but once he gets really angry, he can be very scary.

"Zun, what's wrong with you today?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha sounded nervous.

This was totally inconsistent with her usual calmness and composure when facing Kitahara Takashi.

Kitahara Takashi looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha quietly: "Senior, don't you have anything to tell me today?"

"say what?"

Beiyuan Zun stared at her deeply for a while, "Senior sister, since you are unwilling to say it, then let me help you say it."

Taking a deep breath, Kitahara Tsutomu closed his eyes and seemed to have made some kind of decision: "Let's stop here."

"what are you saying?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart was suddenly shocked.

She is not a fool.

She naturally understood what Watanabe Takashi meant when he said, "Let's stop here."

But she didn't want to believe that one day Watanabe Takashi would take the initiative to end their relationship.

Seeing that she was still playing dumb, Kitahara Takashi said simply, "Senior, I'm tired of being someone else's substitute. Let's end our relationship here."

The almost suffocating sadness was overwhelming and swept over her all at once, and Kasumigaoka Utaha's stomach was twitching.

what's going on.

Why did you leave me?

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't understand why Watanabe Takashi suddenly wanted to leave her.

Is it because I left him behind last time?

Or was it that what I said to him was too harsh?

Why on earth?

She asked with a trembling voice: "Why?"

All along, Kasumigaoka Utaha never thought that Watanabe Tsunade would leave her.

After all, he likes himself so much.

Even though Machida Sonoko said that she wanted to break up with Watanabe Takashi today, she had never really thought about breaking up with him.

She planned to spend the time like any other date with him.

"Can you tell me why?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's tone was still as gentle, but she no longer had the superior attitude she always had.

Kitahara Takashi was silent for a while. His voice was low, but it was like thunder in Kasumigaoka Utaha's ears.

"Senior, I'm at the Tokyo Cat and Dog Show."

Chapter 109 Let Me Go

The moment Kitahara Takashi said, "Senior, I'm at the Tokyo Cat and Dog Show," Kasumigaoka Utaha's face suddenly turned pale, as if all the blood had gone out.

Of course she knew what Watanabe Takashi meant by this.

He was telling her that he heard everything you said to Machida Sonoko.

How to do?

This was the first thought that emerged in Kasumigaoka Utaha's chaotic train of thought.

A false smile appeared on Kitahara Takashi's face. "Senior, you're planning to break up with me after today's date, right?"

"No, Zun!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice suddenly became high-pitched and sharp.

the first time!

It was the first time that Kitahara Takashi saw this woman lose her composure.

In Kitahara Takashi's impression, the woman Kasumigaoka Utaha has always been decent, calm and self-possessed, just like the jade Buddha above him, watching the troubles of the world with cold eyes, without joy, anger or emotion.

Kitahara Takashi knew that Kasumigaoka Utaha was not really emotionless, but he was not the person who could provoke her emotions.

She would never do this to Akitomo.

"Really? Are you trying to say that you've fallen in love with me, Senior? What about Aki Tomoya?"

Beiyuan Zun looked at her steadily, his eyes as sharp as a sword.

"..."

In a word.

With just one sentence, Kitahara Takashi silenced Kasumigaoka Utaha again.

Kasumigaoka Utaha really didn't want Watanabe Takashi to leave her, but she didn't know whether this reluctance was due to love or habit.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is not sure now whether she likes him more than Aki Tomoya.

Kitahara Takashi seemed to have expected her silence. He met the beautiful eyes that were staring at him and smiled.

"Senior, the moment you hesitated, you actually already had the answer."

In those eyes, as beautiful as expensive red wine, Kitahara Takashi saw hesitation and indecision.

Such an answer was expected by Kitahara Takashi.

Kasumigaoka Utaha lowered her eyes slightly and bit her lips tightly: "..."

Kitahara Tsune's eyes flashed with the sadness of falling in love with someone: "Sure enough, [someone who smiles when he sees you] will never be able to compare to [someone who makes you smile when he sees you]"

It is true that he does occupy a certain position in Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart, but if you insist on comparing himself with Aki Tomoya, let alone Kasumigaoka Utaha, even Kitahara Takashi himself feels that he is not qualified enough.

He didn't believe that Kasumigaoka Utaha would fall in love with him in such a short time.

Even if Kasumigaoka Utaha really falls in love with him in the future, that love will definitely not be simple love.

"Senior sister, I like the simple things, and I don't like them until I weigh the pros and cons."

"Just like if you like strawberries, you will buy them without hesitation. If you don't like bananas, but you consider that bananas aid digestion, you will still buy them."

"But if you could only buy one kind of fruit with the money you have, I think you would choose strawberries instead of bananas without hesitation, right?"

"Senior!"

Kitahara Takashi's voice was hoarse, and he looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha calmly: "If the person who asked this question today was Aki Tomoya, would you hesitate? Would you hesitate?"

If it was Aki Tomoya...

Kasumigaoka Utaha thought about it, and then she realized dejectedly that it wouldn't work.

If it was Aki Tomoya who asked her whether she liked her, she would be happy and delighted, but she would definitely not hesitate.

Because Akitomo is also the person who makes Kasumigaoka Utaha want to laugh when she sees him.

He was the person she simply fell in love with without any thought or calculation.

And Watanabe Takashi was the one who tried every possible way to make her accept it.

There is absolutely no comparison between the two.

"Senior, you don't need to remind me that you don't like me. I know, I know everything."

Kitahara Takashi's voice began to choke a little.

"I can pretend I don't know."
