My youth romance is always confusing

The next day.

The club room after school was filled with people of all ages. Since Mitsuki arrived, the room had become noticeably more crowded.

Originally, Yukinoshita and I were sitting on opposite sides of the long table, with Yuigahama sitting next to Yukinoshita, but now it's like Mitsuki is sandwiched between Yuigahama and me.

If it were just that it would be fine, but for some reason Mitsuki doesn't seem to get along well with Yuigahama. Even though the atmosphere was awkward when she took her and Yukinoshita out before, the little girl seemed quite at ease.

But now facing Yuigahama, her little face was full of vigilance.

I guess the bear hug I gave her before left too deep an impression on her.

Eh? If this can help Mitsuki stop thinking about random things, then Yuigahama did a good job.

Otherwise, just let Mitsuki sit next to Yuigahama from now on.

Being targeted by some unknown evil, Mitsuki shuddered involuntarily.

How strange, it’s clearly early summer.

Since I have recovered from my illness, even if there is nothing to do in the club now, I have to stay here honestly.

Yes, even though I listened to those two guys discussing some girl topics that I really couldn't understand, I had no choice but to stay in the club room.

What is this, a punishment game?

"Hey, Xiaoxue, we didn't go to Sizeriya last time. Do you want to go out together this weekend?"

The dumpling girl took advantage of her physical advantages that were different from those of an adolescent, and begged Yukinoshita during the constant physical friction.

Completely ignoring the other person's face which was getting darker and darker.

"Ah, well, this week I was a little bit..."

Well, of course, Yukinoshita isn't someone who's willing to go out with others. Even if we meet her by chance in a bookstore, she won't say a word.

Ah.

"Boy over there, what are you laughing at?"

Even though the sound made by Hachiman was so small that it was inaudible, Yukino still relied on her extraordinary hearing to keenly catch this fleeting sound.

"No, it's nothing."

Putting down the paperback in my hand, I touched Xiao Meiyue's hair as if I were touching Kamakula at home.

"Hikigaya-kun, do you know that when people say 'it's nothing', they are actually slandering others in their hearts?"

Although Yuigahama has an excellent effect on Yukino, once the positions are changed, Yukinoshita Yukino will become the ice queen that everyone in the school knows.

And it just so happens that Hikigaya Hachiman is the best person to change the subject.

Because to Yukino, Hikigaya Hachiman is a person who can use all his sarcasm without any psychological burden.

In a sense, Hikigaya Hachiman = sandbag, both can be used to vent anger.

"Please apologize to the whole society. Your logic is too far-fetched."

"Oh? It's really strange to hear the word 'society' from someone's mouth."

"Hey, you want to quarrel?"

With Mitsuki here, I originally didn't want to argue with Yukinoshita, but this girl was being too aggressive, and if I didn't show a firm attitude, I would easily be led by her.

Sure enough, seeing Hachiman resisting so fiercely, Yukino didn't continue speaking.

Rather, rather than refuting the other party, this kind of occasional sarcastic remark is what Yukino really wants to do.

There were three ceramic cups and a stack of disposable paper cups in a plastic bag on the wooden table.

The three ceramic cups were of course the belongings of the three girls present. The one for Mitsuki was the one that Yukinoshita bought for her at the mall as a gift. Unexpectedly, Mitsuki brought it directly to the club room.

"By the way, speaking of which, I met your sister last weekend."

Anyway, now that I've opened my mouth, I don't mind saying a little more.

I pulled the chair slightly outward and faced Yukinoshita who was making tea.

Yukino's hands trembled slightly as she was making tea, which was rarely seen in her as she had been practicing the tea ceremony since she was a child.

However, even though there were some mistakes along the way, the black tea was still poured steadily into everyone's ceramic cup.

She handed the cup to the two of them with her fair right hand, making Hachiman look embarrassed.

But for him, things of this magnitude could have been ignored long ago.

"elder sister?"

"Yes, I remember... your sister's name is Yukinoshita Haruno, right?"

In order to cater to the atmosphere of a large family, I deliberately chose a more traditional name.

But I didn’t feel any traditional temperament from that person that day. Instead, the modern beauty was particularly obvious.

When these two sisters are put together, they are like heaven and earth, one big and one small.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not referring to anything in particular.

After hearing that person's name, Yukino could no longer remain indifferent.

She narrowed her eyes, trying to recall whether she had done anything recently that would worry her family or that was beyond the status of a "student".

However, after searching for a long time, the search engine in my mind returned no results.

This forced her to continue to focus on someone who was the source.

"What does my sister want from you?"

Xueno knows Yangno very well. She is the kind of person who will not stop at anything unless it means something to her.

Of course, rather than believing that her sister was interested in a guy with dead eyes, she believed that her sister was looking for him for something.

"Ah...uh."

Now that the person involved has asked me this, I don’t know whether to answer it or not.

But I have no obligation to keep it a secret for that guy, so just tell him.

"Your sister asked me to get your email address."

"Email address?"

As if she had thought of something bad, Yukino leaned back in her chair, hugged her non-existent breasts with both hands, and had an expression of extreme disgust on her face.

"Hitotani-kun over there, if you do anything further I will call the police directly."

"Why do you have to assume that I committed a crime?"

Although my social security level is indeed not high.

"It was obviously your sister's random request, don't throw the responsibility to me."

Yukinoshita's reaction was a bit extreme, but I have seen her like this dozens of times.

Basically, they were just actions to discredit me, and not once did they really want to call the police.

But this is natural. In school, with outsiders around, there is no need to call the police. It is simply an act of expressing disgust.

"Eh? Xiaoxue's sister? Xiaoqi, have you met her?"

"Ah... it was before..."

Facing Yuigahama, I suddenly realized that I hadn't told her yet about buying her a birthday present, so after smacking my lips twice, I chose to fool her in other ways.

"I was shopping with Xiao Meiyue before and ran into the two sisters by chance. That's how we met."

As long as I break down the facts, there won't be any flaws even if I tell a lie.

The purchase was real, and the encounter was also real, but I deliberately concealed the premise of initiating the shopping.

"Those things don't matter anymore, let's get to the point."

Yukino, who also noticed the problem with the direction of the topic, immediately shifted the focus to what Hachiman had said today.

"The point? The point is that your sister got my phone number from somewhere, and then pretended to be you to send a club activity notice and tricked me out. It's that simple."

Although it sounds complicated, it is actually... complicated.

Really, now that I think about it, why did that guy call me out?

Isn't it just for fun?

No way, would such a childish reason appear in the name of a rich girl?

Probably not.

Hachiman's somewhat helpless tone made Yukino and Yuigahama subconsciously believe what he said.

For Yukino, her sister's style of doing things was also unpredictable to her, so even if Haruno did this, she didn't know the meaning behind this action.

But this does not mean that this matter has nothing to do with her. Not to mention her sister's somewhat strange request, the fact that she was targeting her club members was enough to make her alert.

After all, that was Yukinoshita Haruno.

Yukino pondered for a moment, then nodded at Hachiman.

"I will tell my sister about what happened next. The trouble she caused you was my inconsiderateness."

She didn't expect that the trip would cause so much trouble for her team members. It would be unreasonable to say that she had no responsibility at all.

"Oh..."

This is indeed the first time I have seen Yukinoshita like this, but it’s okay this way. Let’s quickly put that bared-fanged tigress back into the cage at Yukinoshita’s home.

For the sake of my life.
