Chapter 24: Hmm... Can we reconcile?
Honami appeared in dormitory 301.
"I won't ask why Kikyo showed up in Miyano Makoto's dorm."
Honami looked at the two people holding hands on the bed and beside the bed.
"What were you doing just now?"
"Let me tell you, let me tell you!"
Miyano Makoto raised his other free hand with an impatient expression on his face.
"I just came up from downstairs to buy some hot milk and was about to go to bed, but when I opened the door, I saw Kikyou Kushida sitting on my bed, and she was talking to me about wanting someone in her class to drop out."
"Anything else?"
"...There shouldn't be anything else important, right?"
"I see... What else do you want to say, Kikyo?"
Upon hearing this, Honami begins to question Kikyou Kushida.
"Yeah, just like what Miyano Makoto said just now, the key was copied from you secretly by me, and it has nothing to do with him."
At this time, Kikyou Kushida spoke the truth. She was afraid that if she lied, she would not be able to leave the room.
He had no doubt that Miyano Makoto, who claimed to be a good man, was capable of doing such a thing, and Honami was probably in cahoots with the other party.
So it's better to win the other party's favor here.
"Okay, I understand the situation now. Now please explain why you are sitting on Miyano Makoto's bed?"
Honami quickly approached the two of them, put her hands on Kikyou Kushida's shoulders and pushed her down on the bed, and Miyano Makoto also loosened his grip.
He loves watching women fight the most.
The current scene is,
Kikyou Kushida was pressed on Miyano Makoto's bed by Honami. Their faces were still some distance apart, but their protruding parts were already tightly pressed together.
"Did you make these wrinkles on the bed?"
Facing the beautiful face so close to her, Kikyou Kushida's eyes did not waver at all.
She nodded slightly.
"Why?"
Honami asked. Her expression couldn't be described as angry, but it certainly wasn't happy either.
More of a...complexity?
However, Miyano Makoto didn't see all this. From his perspective, he could only see part of Kikyou Kushida's cheek and the right half of their body that was tightly pressed together...
"Because I like Miyano Makoto just like you, isn't that okay?"
"Excuse me, can I go out now?"
Even though this seemed to be his dorm, Miyano Makoto had already decided to slip away.
At worst, I can stay outside for a while. The atmosphere in here is really a bit depressing.
"Well, Miyano Makoto, go out first."
Without looking back, Honami agreed to Miyano Makoto's escape.
Sorry, he is such a coward.
Miyano Makoto thought to himself and quietly left his dormitory.
"Can you tell me now?"
After Miyano Makoto left, Honami had no intention of letting go, she still held Kikyou Kushida tightly.
"Didn't I just say that?"
Kikyou Kushida asked back,
"It's a person's freedom to like whomever she wants, right?"
"What do you know about him? Those who are not prepared should leave as soon as possible!"
Honami sneered, her relationship with Miyano Makoto was unshakable.
"Of course I don't know him as well as a childhood friend like you, but... I am definitely attracted to what he shows. Is that not okay?"
"Even though you know that I already have that kind of relationship with him?"
Honami asked, her expression unchanged.
"If Kei Karuizawa can do it, why can't I? There has to be a limit to double standards."
Kikyou Kushida looked like she was about to cry, and it was unclear whether she was pretending or genuinely feeling it.
She hugged Honami's slender waist tightly with her backhand, and the space between them became smaller and smaller.
"So, what if I asked you to betray Class D for this?"
"That's a matter of course."
Kikyou Kushida answered without delay. She herself did not have much feelings for things like classes, not to mention that there was an outlier like Suzune Horikita among them.
"You can let go now."
Hearing this, Honami signaled Kikyou Kushida to loosen her hands that were tightly around her waist, as she was about to get up.
"And then? Don't you want to say something after listening to what I have to say?"
However, Kikyou Kushida had no intention of stopping. She was not the kind of person who would suffer a loss.
"Why do you like Miyano Makoto? Can you tell me the reason?"
"If you don't tell me, I won't let go."
The force emanating from Kikyou Kushida's arm became stronger.
Because of her posture, Honami couldn't break free very well, and her face gradually became ruddy.
"...Do you really have to tell me?"
"I've already said so much, wouldn't it seem cunning if you didn't say anything?"
Although she is in a lower position in the perspective, Kikyou Kushida seems to have the dominant power in the discourse.
She really wanted to know what made a beautiful girl like Honami fall hopelessly in love with that man.
"... Miyano Makoto once saved me."
"He saved your life and then you fell in love with him?"
Kikyou Kushida was surprised, what kind of old-fashioned hero-saving-the-beauty plot was this?
If Miyano Makoto knew what she was thinking at the moment, he would definitely shout something like "This is the way of the king, what do you know?"
"That's not the case."
Honami shook her head and continued,
"When I was little, he always took care of my feelings and helped me through the difficulties in various ways. Although it seems now that this was his premeditated plan, but..."
"He helped me at that time, that's an ironclad fact, and I can't turn back now."
"Are you satisfied?"
While speaking, Honami's eyes were a little dazed, as if she was recalling some beautiful memories.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she came to her senses and said this to Kikyou Kushida calmly.
"Ah, actually I want to hear something more specific, but forget it, we are good friends after all."
Kikyou Kushida laughed and let go of her hand. She was actually very satisfied.
"What do you mean by premeditated plan?"
But she was still a little curious about the meaning of this sentence. Aren't they the same age? How could Miyano Makoto be described as premeditated?
"Well...if you want to know, just go ask him yourself!"
Honami stood up and smiled playfully. Unlike Sakayanagi who had already received Miyano Makoto's approval, Kikyo still had to work hard.
"Wow, it looks like there's a big secret!"
Kikyou Kushida's curiosity was aroused by Honami, and she now wanted to know this secret very much.
"You really can't tell me?"
"If Miyano Makoto doesn't agree, I won't be able to tell you."
"All right."
Kikyou Kushida curled her lips in disappointment. Isn't it just Miyano Makoto's consent? She can get it.
Seeing Kikyou Kushida's nonchalant expression, Honami felt both angry and amused.
"You don't think it's easy to know this secret?"
She didn't know about it until recently!
It's been more than ten years!
She felt so angry when she thought about how Sakayanagi had easily learned the secret from her today.
The little secret between two people became a big secret between three people.
She would be very sad if it became a big secret between the four of them so quickly.
Seeing Honami's expression, Kikyou Kushida strengthened her resolve.
She'll keep this secret!
"It doesn't seem good to stay here any longer, let's go!"
"I didn't say you could leave."
Facing Kikyou Kushida's request to escape, Honami flatly refused.
"I haven't come to you to settle the score for the dormitory key issue yet~"
"Um... can we reconcile?"
