My youth romance is always confusing

Miura's angry look made me feel a little dangerous. Fortunately, Ebina separated us, otherwise sitting next to her would have made me feel uneasy.

After all, I can't withstand the power of the Queen of Fire.

But the person who should be worrying about this right now is not me, but a certain guy who can no longer even speak clearly.

“Ah…ah…ah…ah…ah…”

Yuigahama kept opening and closing her mouth, like a fax machine with a bug.

Ebina, who was sitting opposite her, covered his forehead and pretended not to see her.

A certain orange cat lady with fur standing on end kept tapping the smooth tabletop with her fingers. Every time her knuckles hit the tabletop, it was like a hard blow to Yuigahama's heart.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Miura stopped this meaningless behavior.

"Can you explain this to me, Yui?"

Yuigahama felt her mouth dry as she was stared at by Miura's ferocious eyes like a poisonous snake.

She didn't know what to say at this moment. If the meeting with Ebina just now was an easy level, then the meeting with Miura now was a very hard level of hell.

Although she had just admitted her mistake to Ebina and got away with it, facing Miura, whose aura level was obviously much higher than hers, Yuigahama didn't know if her trick would still work.

"Hey, Yumiko, you finally got out of here, don't be so angry."

Ebina, who had been pretending to be dead, couldn't stand it anymore and quickly came out to smooth things over.

But instead of the forgiveness he had imagined, he was bullied as well.

"Just shut up, Ebina."

Alas!

Looking at Miura's gloomy face, Ebina clamped the void tail that he didn't have and immediately fell silent.

She pursed her lips and continued to lower her head towards the coffee cup.

"Although it may be a little inappropriate, this is Yuigahama-san's birthday party after all. Could you please come back another day to question us?"

Although Yuigahama was in the wrong first, Yukino could not agree with such a behavior of showing no mercy to the master.

It is natural to admit mistakes, but everything has its priorities. As the department head, she could not bear to watch her department members being questioned so aggressively in public.

It would have been fine if Yukino didn't say anything, but once she spoke, all the resentment that had been accumulated before exploded.

After hearing her words, Miura raised his slender eyebrows and turned the conversation to Yukino.

"Oh? From what you said, you are emphasizing that you want to be closer to Yui than to us?"

The lip gloss she applied on her lips sparkled in the reflection of the sunlight, just like her strong presence, making people unable to take their eyes off her.

But how could the Fire Queen's attack work on the Ice Queen?

Yukino just smiled slightly, not taking Miura's words seriously at all, and still stared at Miura's face calmly.

"No, I'm just stating a fact. Besides, if you're really Yuigahama-san's friend, you shouldn't be accusing him of something in a place like this."

The group of six just filled up the somewhat narrow square table, and among them were high-quality beauties like Yukino and Miura, and Ebina and Yuigahama were not bad either. Over time, the uneasy atmosphere here gradually spread to the next room.

Gradually, more and more people have turned their attention to this side.

Yukino and Miura were at loggerheads, neither of them willing to give in. If they gave in here, it would be like they had lost the game, which would be unpleasant.

The atmosphere in the venue suddenly turned cold.

But what does this have to do with me?

All I had to do was pretend nothing happened and watch these two guys confront each other.

Anyway, I can't like either of them. Oh, but I still like to watch them when they are in trouble.

Hu Hu Hu.

Although Ebina beside me has been looking over here intentionally or unintentionally, Yuigahama opposite has also been lowering her head and looking at me with her eyes...

Oh, I get it. Stop looking at me like that.

"Ahem, you two."

Finally, I succumbed to an unspoken request from a couple of my besties.

"I'm sorry to bother you two, but if we continue like this it will cause trouble to others. Do you want us to go somewhere else?"

Maybe my position was not so obvious, or maybe the two of them really realized that their behavior was inappropriate. In any case, after I said this, Yukinoshita and Miura turned their heads away at the same time and stopped staring at each other.

Ah, that's great.

I have to say, although I didn’t act like I didn’t care much just now, the tense atmosphere between the two of them was already touching my face, making me unconsciously a little nervous.

So I felt relieved to see that they were both willing to take a step back.

So, let’s change place.

----------

Starting from Saria, we split into two teams and walked on the way back to Yuigahama's house.

However, since it was just after lunch time, there were not many people on the street. Thanks to this, no one looked at us strangely.

"Hehe, just now it was all thanks to Hikigaya-kun."

I was startled when Ebina suddenly spoke behind me.

Looking at her teasing eyes, I couldn't help but subconsciously distance myself from her.

"Oh."

The indifferent answer did not dampen Ebina's enthusiasm. She stuck to the job like a plaster that could not be shaken off.

"It's so cold. The atmosphere between Yui and the others is weird now, don't you think?"

strange?

Isn't that a matter of course?

Look at the three people walking together in front, Yukinoshita, Yuigahama, and Miura.

Although Yuigahama was in the middle as a buffer, it was also because of this that they didn't say a word.

Wait, this guy next to me isn't also feeling depressed because he can't find anyone to talk to, right?

Looking at Ebina's face which was full of "watch a good show", I felt that this guy must have deliberately brought the three people in front together.

She reminded me of Yukinoshita Haruno. They both seemed to like watching this kind of dramatic stuff.

“You are…”

"Ok?"

After hearing Hachiman's voice, Ebina turned his attention back to the people around him.

"No, it's nothing."

If Ebina does have some similarities with Yukinoshita Haruno, then I shouldn't bring up the topic here and should just leave it alone.

Having met Yukinoshita Haruno several times, I know this well.
