Ichinose Honami: "I Get Jealous Sometimes Too, You Know"

"Hehe, my story with Hikari is quite long, Haruka, would you like to hear it?"

Sakura Airi knew the atmosphere had reached this point, so she decided to tell the other girl everything. She didn't want the blue-haired girl to do anything more troublesome, which might hurt others.

"Then you tell me."

Hasebe kept a straight face, giving off an "take it or leave it" vibe.

Okay.

So, in the following time, Sakura Airi began to recount the entire process of how she met, got to know, and fell in love with Hashiba Hikaru.

Whether it's the hero's arrival in the face of enthusiastic fans, carrying her to the hospital after the photoshoot, or the discussions about changing himself, there are many, many more.

These stories were originally the most important romantic memories in the girl's heart. Now, after telling them through this opportunity, the sweet times she spent with Hashiba Hikaru kept replaying in her mind, causing Sakura Airi's expression to become even gentler.

"..."

After listening for about half an hour, Hasebe Haruka's expression became very complicated.

She initially thought that Hashiba Hikaru was just taking advantage of her good looks to deliberately provoke the rather timid Sakura Airi, but she never expected that so many things would happen between the two of them.

After hearing these stories, she could feel that her friend had long since taken up residence in the other's heart, a steadfast commitment she was absolutely unwilling to give up.

Even knowing that the other person was not a faithful person, Sakura Airi still rushed towards him like a moth to a flame.

"Haruka, do you realize now? Actually, I'm the bad guy."

Sakura Airi's expression was gentle. "Even though Hikaru already had a girlfriend, I still clung to him and forced him to make a commitment."

"Now that our relationship has reached this point, I will not leave him, and he will not leave me."

"That's not fair to you."

Hasebe Haruka immediately steered the conversation to another topic.

"If he's willing to break up with someone else, I can support Airi being with him."

"No, I won't force you to do something you don't want to do."

Sakura Airi shook her head, staring at the blue-haired girl in front of her, and said, "Can we handle these problems ourselves?"

"..."

Hasebe Haruka looked at the serious-looking girl and could only fall silent.

What kind of magic does that Classmate Hashiba possess?

Why do so many outstanding girls like him?

Hateful.

Chapter 385 Ichinose Honami: I get jealous sometimes too.

After handling several Student Council affairs, Hashiba Hikaru decided to take a day off to spend time with his girlfriend.

On the very night he met Hasebe Haruka, Sakura Airi sent the boy a text message late at night, mentioning this issue. Although it wasn't a big deal, it made Hashiba Hikaru realize something else.

He hadn't spent much time with Ichinose Honami lately, which might have given the girl some negative thoughts. After all, the exam was already finished, and the magnanimous gesture she offered wasn't a reason for him to do whatever he wanted; he had to be careful not to overdo it.

"Honami, I asked for leave from the Student Council. Let's go on a date tomorrow?"

Hashiba Hikaru chose a suitable time: after the class meeting on Friday, she would set the plan and dedicate the entire Saturday to the other person.

"Okay, but isn't there already a lot to do in the Student Council? Wouldn't that be too reckless?"

Ichinose Honami naturally wouldn't refuse such a suggestion. After the last Girls' Gathering, she had spent several nights at Hashiba Hikaru's place, but she hadn't been able to find a suitable opportunity to ask. If she really had a whole day to spend with her, the girl believed she could ask her.

"We've been making pretty good progress lately, so we can take a break for a bit. Anyway, it's been a long time since we went on a date."

Hashiba Hikaru said with a smile, "There are still more than ten days until the Final Exam, so it's good to balance work and rest."

"Alright then, I'll go to Guang's place tonight."

"Uh-huh."

Hashiba Hikaru showed no sign of refusing. Although the girl had a spare Key Card for her room, she was never the type to launch a surprise attack. She always acted with great discretion, which was something the boy greatly admired about her.

"You're actually going on a date? Doesn't that mean you'll have to leave everything else to other people to handle?"

At this moment, Shibata put his hand on Hashiba Hikaru's shoulder and teased her with a smile, "Poor Kanzaki, you can only continue to work overtime in the Student Council for your sake."

"Would you like to share the burden with him?"

Hashiba Hikaru raised an eyebrow, the corner of her mouth curving into a slightly dangerous smile.

"Of course not, I have club activities to attend to. I'll take my leave now. Have a great date tomorrow!"

Shibata Sou, of course, wasn't going to fall for that trick and immediately made his escape.

As for Ichinose Honami's group of friends, they naturally heard Hashiba Hikaru's suggestion at this moment. Everyone had a maternal smile on their face. Himeno even came up and made some joking remarks about being careful, which made Ichinose Honami shyly pat her on the shoulder.

After the two walked out of the classroom together, Hashiba Hikaru thought about the state of his refrigerator in his dormitory. It seemed that there wasn't much food left in it, so he took the girl to the large supermarket in the Keyaki Mall.

This is probably what they do most often. Ichinose Honami even got a membership at a fresh food supermarket, where she has a lot of points that she can supposedly redeem for gifts.

"What has Guang been liking to eat lately? The vegetables change a lot in winter!"

Ichinose Honami skillfully carried the basket and handed her schoolbag to Hashiba Hikaru, who was standing next to her.

"I'm fine with anything, there's nothing to be picky about."

Hashiba Hikaru didn't really care what she ate. She looked at the dazzling array of fresh dishes with a gentle smile on her face.

"Then I'll make the decision myself. I promise I won't let you down!"

The girl smiled as she selected ingredients. Although she was only a teenager, Ichinose Honami already exuded the skillful demeanor of a housewife, a truly remarkable growth.

As the two were strolling around the supermarket, a short-haired girl appeared not far away. She had come to buy toiletries, but upon seeing Hashiba Hikaru, she immediately stopped in her tracks.

"Drop!"

The boy, who was carrying his girlfriend's schoolbag, heard his phone's notification sound and immediately took it out.

Chat interface.

Kushida Kikyo: Are you coming to my dorm today?

Hashiba Hikaru: I have something to do today, maybe next time.

Kushida Kikyo: What is it?

Hashiba Hikaru: I'll be spending the next two days with Honami.

Kushida Kikyo: Why did it take so long?

Hashiba Hikaru:... Because she's my girlfriend.

After sending the message, he didn't receive a reply from Kushida Kikyo for quite some time.

Hashiba Hikaru didn't elaborate further. Lately, this short-haired girl's clinginess had become a bit excessive, and she often seemed unwilling to stop. Perhaps it was best to cool things down a bit.

But just as the boy put his phone in his pocket, he suddenly heard a very familiar female voice.

"Honami? And Classmate Hashiba? Are you buying things here too?"

"Oh, it's Kikyo-chan, good afternoon."

Ichinose Honami looked up and immediately saw the cute girl who was quite popular among the first-year students, and waved to her.

"I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you guys!"

Kushida Kikyo ignored Hashiba Hikaru's suggestive glances and walked straight over to Ichinose Honami.

"With so many groceries, it looks like Honami will be the chef today!"

"No, I was just cooking something casually."

Ichinose Honami smiled slightly. She glanced at her boyfriend, and seeing that he didn't show any unusual expression, she said very naturally, "Because Hikaru isn't picky about food, he likes to eat whatever I make."

"Is that so?"

Seeing the happiness naturally radiating from the girl's face, a glint of light flashed in Kushida Kikyo's eyes.

The next moment, she turned her gaze to the boy beside her who was trying to make himself as inconspicuous as possible.

"I've heard that Classmate Hashiba is also a very good cook. Does he cook often?"

"Hikaru's cooking skills are indeed excellent, but he doesn't usually cook. He's already tired enough with his daily routine, so it's better if I do the cooking."

Whenever Ichinose Honami stays overnight at Hashiba Hikaru's dorm, she cooks for herself, not only out of consideration for her, but also to assert that she is the mistress of that dorm.

The pink-haired girl, who grew up in a traditional family, believes this is the most harmonious division of labor between men and women.

"What a wonderful woman, Honami. I'm even a little envious of Classmate Hashiba for finding a girlfriend like you."

Kushida Kikyo's face showed an exaggerated expression of surprise. She nudged Hashiba Hikaru's arm with her elbow and said with a smile, "Why don't you give me Honami, Classmate Hashiba? I want to eat her cooking too."

"... If you want Kikyo-chan, you can come to my dorm, I can make it for you."

Ichinose Honami saw the other person touching her boyfriend, her expression froze slightly, but she quickly spoke up.

"Then forget it, I won't be a third wheel, otherwise Classmate Hashiba will get angry."

Kushida Kikyo smiled and met Hashiba Hikaru. Seeing the helplessness in his eyes, the girl was finally satisfied.

"I'll be going now. Let's go out for dinner together again next time, Honami. Let's not bring Classmate Hashiba. Let's have Girls' Gathering just the two of us."

"Okay, it's settled then."

Ichinose Honami nodded, seemingly genuinely interested.

"Okay, bye-bye."

Kushida Kikyo waved to the two of them, then picked up her basket and turned to go to the cashier to pay. Before leaving, she made a point of looking at Hashiba Hikaru's face and gave her a sweet smile.

After the other person left, Ichinose Honami continued to select ingredients with her head down, but soon she asked softly.

Are Hikari and Kikyo-chan very close?

"Why do you ask that? We're not even in the same class."

Hashiba Hikaru didn't answer the question directly; being thick-skinned is a basic quality.

"But Kikyo-chan seems to know you quite well. Didn't you two exchange contact information before?"

Ichinose Honami picked up a carrot, showing no intention of leaving the topic behind.

"There will probably be some communication, on the phone,"

Hashiba Hikaru naturally understood that the other party wouldn't let her off easily at this point, so she answered by mixing truth with lies, "After all, we are both members of the Student Council, and sometimes we communicate about a lot of work."

"I see."

Ichinose Honami placed the two types of vegetables she had chosen into the basket, then turned to her boyfriend. "So... do you just think Kikyo-chan is cute?"

"?"

These words immediately caused Hashiba Hikaru's expression to turn somewhat astonished. His mind immediately began to race, as the boy had not yet fully grasped the other party's attitude.

"Of course she's cute, after all, Kushida is very popular."

A minute later, he decided to answer honestly.

"That's true. I think a girl like Kikyo-chan must have a lot of boys like her, but I heard that she doesn't plan to have a boyfriend in high school, so she's rejected a lot of confessions."

Ichinose Honami continued walking forward, carrying the basket, glancing at the vegetables and observing Hashiba Hikaru's expression.

"Everyone has different ideas, which is normal."

The boy shrugged, offering no opinion.

"Yeah, anyway, since Hikaru already has me as his girlfriend, he doesn't need to think about these things anymore."

Ichinose Honami's tone remained gentle as she selected seasonings, but her words startled Hashiba Hikaru.

[What's going on? Why did you click on me?]

"Yes, I'm already lucky enough."

Hashiba Hikaru chuckled dryly. Right now, all he wanted to do was punish Kushida Kikyo properly and make her pay next time.

"Yeah, I think I'm very lucky. Being able to date Hikaru is something I never imagined before."

The girl's voice was filled with indescribable emotion. "I cherish this relationship and want it to last."
