Although Nishimiya Shoko had some questions about why Kijima Yuta was asking so many questions, she still nodded hesitantly.
Nishimiya Shoko never had any other fantasies. As long as tomorrow was even a little bit better than today, then tomorrow was a day worth looking forward to.
When Nishimiya Shoko replied, Kijima Yuta breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that there was a solution.
But we can't delay any longer.
However, it's impossible to directly tell her that I want to help her, and she might not be willing to accept it.
It seems we still need to think of a solution...
Nishimiya Shoko looked at Kijima Yuta, who suddenly lowered his head and looked thoughtful. As if she had thought of something, she clenched her fist and hit her other small hand.
"Hmm?" Kijima Yuta, who was still thinking about how to persuade Nishimiya Shoko to accept his help, felt Shoko poking him with her finger.
"What's wrong?" Yuta Kijima asked in sign language.
As Kijima Yuta asked her question, Nishimiya Shoko's face turned red at a visible speed, and she shyly looked at Kijima Yuta.
"?"
This is?
Seeing Kijima Yuta looking at her with a subtle expression, Nishimiya Shoko became even more shy, but still decided to quickly express herself in sign language.
“It was when you took me home yesterday afternoon that my sister saw you. I told them what happened, and they… wanted to invite you to dinner…” After gesturing, Nishimiya Shoko lowered her head, not wanting Kijima Yuta to see her embarrassment.
Yuta Kijima asked, "Me? Your family? Dinner?"
He was a little confused; how could he have run into this?
Actually, all of this was done by Nishimiya Shoko's younger sister, Nishimiya Yuzuru.
As Nishimiya Shoko's younger sister, she showed a desire to protect her older sister from a young age.
Because he was worried that his older sister, who had been suffering from bullying, might have suicidal thoughts due to the unbearable pain, he would deliberately take pictures of animal corpses to show her, hoping to dispel her thoughts.
Yesterday, when Yuta Kijima was taking Shoko Nishimiya home, he didn't take her to her doorstep, but stopped from a distance.
However, Yuzuru Nishimiya, who was bored while waiting for her sister to come home on the balcony, saw this and, fearing that her sister would be bullied, immediately took a picture of Yuta Kijima seeing Shoko Nishimiya off.
Yesterday afternoon, Nishimiya Shoko returned home late and was caught in this incident by Nishimiya Yuzuru, which turned her home into a scene of court proceedings.
If Nishimiya Shoko had arrived any later, her family might have had to go out and search for her.
So during the "trial," Shoko's mother left no room for negotiation, and even her grandmother stood silently beside her.
In response, Nishimiya Shoko had no choice but to reveal Kijima Yuta's existence and what had happened the day before.
After she finished speaking, Nishimiya Shoko awkwardly looked away.
"If Yuta... really doesn't want to go, I'll talk to Mom properly!" Nishimiya Shoko was still concerned about Kijima Yuta's attitude; she didn't want to ruin their hard-won friendship because of this.
"Ah~"
Yuta Kijima was somewhat helpless.
What's all this?
But he also understood the thoughts of Shoko's family. They simply wanted to see for themselves the character of the friends Shoko made, fearing that Shoko might encounter bad people with malicious intentions.
Since Yuta Kijima already considered Shoko a friend, he certainly wouldn't want to make things difficult for her.
“Okay, Shoko.” Kijima Yuta agreed to Shoko’s family’s request. “But this week is a bit rushed. How about next week? Let’s meet here at Ishibashi on Wednesday next week.”
"Ok!"
Nishimiya Shoko nodded hurriedly, her brown hair trembling with excitement, and a shy, nervous look returned to her face. "I... will be waiting for... Yuta next Wednesday."
Because she was so nervous, she made cute "hmm" sounds while using sign language, which made her even more adorable.
Lovely pinch.
Chapter 51 Club Gathering
"Thank you... Yuta, goodbye."
After expressing her gratitude, Nishimiya Shoko blushed and bowed to thank him. If others had seen this, they might have thought that Kijima Yuta was bullying her.
Kijima Yuta said calmly, "Goodbye."
After watching Nishimiya Shoko leave, Kijima Yuta looked up and glanced in the direction of her house.
Shoko said she was reported by her sister, so she must have been seen in this place.
Yuta Kijima thought about it.
Nishimiya Shoko's personality is indeed worrying. We don't even know what image she has in her family's eyes right now. The next visit will be a challenge.
Yuta Kijima shook his head and turned to go home.
…………
Back home, Yuta Kijima's life returned to its usual routine, and his appointment with Shoko Nishimiya next week was still a long way off.
However, after returning, Kijima had one thing deeply etched in his mind: he couldn't help it, because after learning about Nishimiya Shoko's experience, he could never completely put his mind at ease.
On such a day, the week flew by. On Friday, under the blazing sun, Yuta Kijima and Megumi Kato strolled leisurely on their way home.
"Yuta, what time are you planning to go to Aki's house tomorrow?" Kato Megumi asked in a calm tone, avoiding a boisterous child who was running around.
Yuta Kijima tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Let's eat lunch first and then go. I don't expect Rin to cook lunch for us."
Actually, this was his first time visiting Aki Tomoya's home. Aki Tomoya hadn't had time to invite him before, as his weekends were always packed with work.
This club activity was organized only after he agreed to take a day off. Kijima Yuta thought that if they had stayed away, they would have just stayed together playing games and watching anime.
There is no anticipation for perfection.
"Hmm... this afternoon?" Kato Megumi pondered.
Yuta Kijima thought for a moment, "Megumi, wait for me this afternoon. There's nothing fun going to Tomoya's house anyway. If you're really bored, you'll have someone to keep you company, right?"
In fact, Aki Tomoya's club members are only close to Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri. Kato Megumi doesn't have much to talk about with him, and besides, Kijima Yuta has his own little schemes.
Kato Megumi glanced at Kijima Yuta and said calmly, "Okay, I'm still a little worried about how to get to Aki's house. It will be much better if Yuta goes with me."
"The Tomoya family?"
Yuta Kijima thought about it carefully. Aki Tomoya's address was a bit far from both of them. It would probably only take a train ride to get there, but thankfully it wouldn't be more than a few stops.
"It's alright, let's meet at the station after dinner tomorrow, it's not far," Yuta Kijima said with a smile.
Kato Megumi nodded gently: "I agree."
Let Aki Tomoya endure Kasumigaoka-senpai's sharp tongue this morning.
These past few days, Lunye finally finished a game design document that was passable, although he thought his senior would definitely not be able to bear looking at it.
The main problem was that Aki Tomoya insisted on his own point of view, so Kijima Yuta didn't offer his own thoughts and could only give him some suggestions based on the original ones.
Time passed quietly.
Yuta Kijima waved and said, "See you tomorrow, Megumi."
"See you tomorrow."
Kato Megumi calmly said goodbye to Kijima Yuta and went home.
Yuta Kijima didn't linger. He returned to his unremarkable little rented room and quickly made himself a simple dinner.
Just as he was about to take out a light novel to gain experience points, his phone on the table lit up.
(Aki Tomoya invites you to join the "Game Creation Company".)
Eriri: Tomoya! I'm bringing my artwork to your house first thing tomorrow morning, so remember to get up early and open the door!
Kasumi Shiko: Then you have to be careful not to see anything you shouldn't see. After all, a male high school student with a head full of dirty thoughts is the most dangerous one in the early morning.
Aki Tomoya: Senior, please spare me.
Aki Tomoya: I finally managed to take a day off, and I was planning to catch up on some anime tonight. Eriri, why don't you come over this afternoon, like Yuta and the others? Otherwise, no one will be cooking lunch at my house.
(Yuta Kijima and Megumi Kato joined the group chat)
Eriri: What?! I even postponed my own work for your original drawing, and you still want to sleep in!
Eriri: You'd better commit seppuku to atone for your sins! You bastard!
An Yilun also:...
Kasumi Shiko: Ah~ It seems that the young lady can't wait to head to Ethics-kun's lair.
Eriri: ? You #%¥#%
……
Yuta Kijima shook his head, ignoring the messages in the group chat.
I'll continue to lurk in the group chat with Kato Megumi.
"Om~"
Kato Megumi sent a message: "Yuta, let's meet at the station tomorrow afternoon."
"I wonder if Kasumigaoka-senpai and Sawamura-san are going to Aki-san's house in the morning? I don't think it'll be a problem if I don't go in the morning," Kato Megumi asked, voicing her question.
After all, the main purpose of this offline gathering was to give Eriri a chance to observe her up close and see if she could show different expressions during their daily interactions.
Yuta Kijima stretched and said, "You don't need to worry about that."
"Let's not even talk about whether the seniors went to Tomoya's house in the morning. Tomoya probably hadn't even gotten up yet at that time."
"Besides, Tomoya's proposal has just been written and he still needs to have Kasumigaoka-senpai review it. Sawamura-senpai also has her own work to do."
"I think the afternoon is enough time for Sawamura-senpai to draw it for you."
“Okay, then I’m relieved. I was worried that my absence might delay the club’s progress,” Kato Megumi replied quickly.
Although she doesn't play a significant role in the club, a large part of the club's activities actually revolve around her, and that's what she's worried about.
Yuta Kijima thought about it carefully, "Oh right, I'll bring the workbook I prepared for you tomorrow. Look forward to it, Megumi."
"Evil Smile JPG"
"Remnant"
After these days of tutoring, Kijima Yuta discovered that Kato Megumi has a very strong learning ability. Whenever she encounters a difficult problem, he explains it to her carefully once, and then reinforces it again afterward, and she can basically understand and master it.
